AO .Lv Cc -ut Thousands of white high school ; students from throughout the State are expected to participate in the ,1949 - agricultural speaking contest , : sponsored ; by the North Carolina Rankers Association, says J. Ifrank Doggett, Extension soil conservation ist at State College. - Several thousand dollars worth of government savings bonds and-cash prizes will be awarded to school) county, district and State winners in the contest, which is designed to stira ulate interest in proper land use and treatment. . 1 . . In a statement this week. John P. . Stedman of Lumberton, chairman of the agricultural committee of the Bankers Association, said: - "The agricultural committee of the North Carolina Bankers Association has for many -years centered its in terest around the protection of the soil of North Carolina, which is the State's most valuable asset.' "We, as bankers, realize that the prosperity oi our people , will rise or fall in pro portion to the care or lack of care and treatment that the majority of the State's population, who produce a livelihood from the land, give to it "Approximately .72 per cent of all North Carolinians live in or produce from the country-side. For that rea son, the strongest efforts are needed on the part of business and industry to 'foster an effective educational pro gram for proper land use and care. It takes a long time to develop good land, but carelessness and neglect can cause it to lose its value overnight. "Again this year the Bankers As sociation, assisted by soil conserva tionists, Extension Service personnel, foresters, and -other agencies, takes pleasure in sponsoring - a speaking contest covering some phase of soil conservation." ..;,, 1. A key f ?ure in the troubled Ber lin picture these days is Colonel Frank L. Howley, a wiry little Cav alry reserve officer who holds the HBcllhodDssiity By Dr. Sopbia Branson Modern Treatment of Tuberculosis A few years ago surgery on the lungs was in the experimental stage. It Was considered too dangerous to operate on the lungs. .Modern methods of anesthesia and better care have lessened the risks. Instruments have been perfected. Op erations that were too hazardous a few years ago: are now safely per formed. ' The objectives of lung surgery are for the purpose of -closing cavities, resting tne lungs and thus lessening tux l.t: and French cones of the city an apportioned among the governing , agencies of the three zones in ac- t eordance wjth rigidly determined schedules. ..'",,- It is an important part of Col. Howley's job to see that the sup plies allotted to his zone are dis tributed and utilized in a manner to insure maintenance of the zone's 'economic and political life at as ' nearly normal levels as conditions will permit , . , 1 The task of keeping the wheels "V ln ccuPied m turning, whether there is enough coal tp do it with or not, is not new to the former Philadelphia , advertising -executive. - After the fall of Cherbourg in June. 1944, he headed the Civil . ..Affairsl detachment which entered . . the city with the occupying forces. ' His immediate job there, was to see that the city with its wrecked prtrt facilities was put on its - feet as ' quickly as possible, to supply the Army's advance, to Paris and the Rhine. - Later,, when Paris , was liberated in August 1944, he took, his Civil if Affairs unit to that city and per formed the same kind of job on a much bigger scale during the re mainder of the war in Europe. On July 4. 1945, he entered Berlin with the first American forces to arrive 1 there, and set up the military gov- ernment for the U. S, sector. Except for brief visits home, he has been in Berlin ever since, serv ing as a. sort of unofficial mayor of the U. S.-governed area, and a military Mr. Fixit for the crises that have arisen almost daily in both the city's internal affairs and onr dealinjrs with the Russians. : Colonel Howley's wife and four . children are with him in Germany. branches to the' diaphram. Every time one breathes . the dia- phram moves up and down, massag ing the lower part of the lungs and the abdominal organs.. By crushing the Phrenic nerve in the neck, which is on the diseased side of the lung, the movements of the diaphram on the same side cease. The paralyzed diaphram rises up in the chest cav ity and lessens the movement of .the chest. This gives the lung more rest. X-rays reveal adhesion in the tis sues between the lung and the chest wall. These adhesions prevent the necessary collapse of the lungs from pneumothorax. .. An instrument has been devised for cutting these adhesions- It is a lighted instrument with a system of lenses. This operation is called pneumolysis. A successful pneumothorax can be given after the adhesions are cut and the sputum as a rule is negative in a few weeks. It may be necessary to maintain pneumothorax f o months position of director of military gov ernment in . the U. S. sector of Berlin. ' ' The high level policy which de termines the American position in the beleaguered former German capital is the work of Colonel How ley's military and diplomatic su periors. -But it is Cot. Howley who is responsible for the day-by-day working out of that policy as it affects the welfare of more than a million Germans and all. Ameri cans in the U. S. sector. . . The fuel, food and other necessi ties brought in by the airlift to keep life going in the U. S., British the mobility. A method most commonly resorted to is known an pneumothorax. This is done by injecting air around the lung that crowds it away from the chest wall. "The lung collapses in varying degrees depending upon the amount of air pressure." This col lapse rests the lung and gives it a better chance to heal. , j.;- . . The patient who is successfully re ceiving this treatment ceases to cough and becomes sputum free, or partially so. Pneumothorax is rather a simple procedure, The advantage of pneu mothorax is obvious. The lung may be permitted to expand at any time that the patient's condition seems to warrant it . Another means of securing rest for the lung is an operation on the Phrenic nerve. This 'nerve originates from the spinal cord in the neck. It is about the size of a pin. It runs through the chest ' cavity and sends A Stove For Every Horned ' . It'3 time to check your stove neejls for fall and winter, months.
