Page 6 THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER (One Day Nearer Victory) THURSDAY, MAy Medical Science Has Gone Far Ways In Past Few Years; Saving Many Lives OFFICERS TRAIN FOR WORK INffiRTH5NTERRIT0RIES Today's soldier in the U. S. Army I has better health and a higher life, expectancy th;;n his comrades in the ' Eame agv Ki'oup back home in ci- j viliun life, ai-cordinft to Colonel Sanford V. French, Chief of Medi cal Branch, Headquarters Fourth) Service Command. i Preventive method? have made service men immune from several of the (lis uses which previously ran rampant through armies. For instance, he pointed out, tetanous toxoid shots are given so there is j no longer any fear of lockjaw,; while a typhus fever serum assur- j es immunity from the plague which, formerly destroyed thousands. Yel low fever shots have proved so ef-, fective that not a single case has; been reported and typnoia iever cases are infinitesimal as compar ed to those in other wars, due to new sanitary methods. Life saving drugs, developed since the last conflict, are carried in the soldier's knapsack and can be administered by himself or another soldier, Colonel French stated. Another factor which has had similar miraculous results is the much-publicized blood plasma. Improved methods of treating burns ate not only saving lives but also h lot of suffering, he said, while a new mold-drug, "pencillon," has effected cures in cases of over whelming blood-poisoning. Mobile X-ray machines, possible of being installed in the field within thirty minutes and with hand-generated power, locate bullets and shrapnel so it is not necessary to take a woundtd soldier beyond the battle area for an operation. Skin Serious Protein Feed Shortage Has Developed A serious shortage of protein feeds in North Carolina a n d throughout the Southwest for poultry, swine and cattle was in dicated at a feed conservation and production conference held on May A and 5 at Greensboro. Officials of the State College extension ser vice, the State Department of Ag liculture and other cooperating agricultural agencies met with the oil millers, feed processors and ' livestock and poultry growers to work out methods of dealing with ' the shortage. The consensus of opinion seemed to be that there were about enough , proteins to last only one month, actually in sight. The ordinary i supplies of cottonseed and soybean j meal have "mysteriously disap appeared." Fish meal and bone ; meal are not to be had. Corn at a ceiling price of $1.08 is now coming out of the West, where corn marketed through hogs is bringing about $1.50 a bushel. Cottonseed mea lat $35.0(1 per ton ; has produced a "black market. North Carolina s largest poultry grower, with 2:S,00() layers and I :;n,000 pullets, reported that he had just enough proteins for about a month and other glowers said they had enough for about two weeks of feeding. One county agent reported that he could haul all of the feed in his county in feed dealers hands in one truck. Feeil processors were clamoring for supplies of proteins and corn, saying they would be forced out of business in a few weeks unless help came. I'rcsidont .1. I!.
