Operator on Lonely Island Asks
Surgeon Ship ' Hundreds of
Miles Away How to Am
putate and Then Per
forms Operation
on Injured
Laborer.
New YorlC April 80 How a laborer
on Swan Wand, a lonely wireless sta
tion in the Gulf, sustained a crashed
foot; how the wireless operator on the
island communicated with a ship 450
miles away, raised the surgeon and got
him to explain the proper way to am
putat ; then how the operator's associ
ate performel the operation is a story
told by the manager of a big shipping
concern today. New Orleans physi
cians described it as "'durgary by wire
less." On Swan Island is a wirekss station,
one of the links in the United Fruit
chain to the tropica. When a laborer
hurt hia foot irt a tram car accident, th -wireless
ope r ator concluded an opera
tion was imparative. There were no
medical books at hand; and no one at
the station had hacked at a fellow be
ing. Then the operator had an "in-i
qii-ition" He called a fellow crafts
man passing 450 miles below into the
Caribbean Sea. The situation was ex
p'ained to the ship's physician, and de
tail by detail, he explained just how the
amputation should be handled. After
the arteries had be?n tied and the wound
dressed, the patient recovered his
3'rength and told the operator he want
ed to express his thanks. At .the last
accounts he was getting well.
