14 THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM; OREGON. SUN0AY MORNING, JULY 1, 1928 rSUttNS ENDORSE : , Jill MEDICI PlU i Movement Launched to Pro vide Better Care Follow ing Accidents WASHINGTON, D. C. June 23. The movement recently started by the American Automobile as sociation (or a higher standard of hospital treatment for the victims of automobile accidents received today the whole-hearted indorse ment of the American College of Surgeons. The Indorsement of the College of Surgeons, which consists of 8.000 of the leading surgeons of the United States. Canada and La tin America, took the form of a letter from Dr. Franklin H. Mar- New Executives of Dodge Brother xtr . v r MR. HENRY KROHN MR. REX GLASSON Mr. Krohn has been appointed Director of Senior. Six sates by Dodge Brothers, Inc. He was, for nearly 18 years, general sales manager of the Paige-Detroit Motor Co., hav ing charge of domestic and foreign branches of that company. In the reorganization of 1926.-Mr. Krohn was made vice tin. director general of the col-j president. He assumed his duties with Dodge Brothers, inc., A prtl 1. Mr. Glasson has been appointed Sales Promotion Man ager for Dodge Brothers, Inc. He comes to Dodge Brothers, Inc after eight years experience in the automotive industry, resigning as vice-president of Cram's Automotive Reports to accept his present position. f 5 I 1 I lege, to Thos. P. Henry president of the American Automobile asso ciation. Dr. Martin pointed out that the Interest of the world's largest mo tor federation In the question of "safety afterwarda" would mater ially aid in mobilising public sen timent around what the College of Surgeons Is doing to put into effect "a minimum standard of ef ficiency with which all hospitals and surgeons should comply. He suggested that the A.A.A. utilize for the information of mo torists the list of hospitals in the United States and Canada approv ed by the College of Surgeon This list includes over 90 per cent of the hospitals In the United States and Canada with a capacity of 100 beds or over, Dr. Martin's letter to President Henry follows: "My attention has been drawn to a recent article in the public press, entitled Better Care of Au to Victims, wherein the . Interest of your great organization in the treatment of the Injured is ex pressed. Inpemuch as you have cited the findings of our Research Group of the Board on Traumatic Surgery, and as our college is ac tively engaged on this very sub ject of Improvement in the, care of the Injured, It seems appropri ate to make a brief statement con- j, cerning the college, and its aim in this particular direction. "The American College of Sur- t geons is4 an organization of over -1 8.000 of the leading surgeons of the United States, Canada and La- f tin America. Their organized ef-j fort to improve bcepitals and sur- t gical service was begun over 10 years ago. Their initial step was : ' the formulation of a minimum r standard of efficiency with which i all hospitals and surgeons should comply. Over 90 per cent of all i hospitals in the United States and - Canada, with a capacity of 100 I beds' and over, are now comply- lrtT with this minimum standard - and are upon the approved list of I the college; and a constantly ln- cising number of the smaller - hospitals are complying and are approved as rapidly as the facts Justify. ,In brief summary, the 'practical results which are rec ognized over the entire J ho: ? world are: "a. The shortening of the aver . age days stay of patients in hos- , pitals "b. The lowering of the hcfpital deith rate "c. The elimination of unneces sary and incompetent surgery. "Many of the changed condi tions In our modern, high-geared i Ufe, center around motor cars. The frequency of accidents requiring emergency treatment is increas jf. fng. and many of these are In our . rural districts. In many instances i for want of immediate adequate hospital ard surgiral service, on J dne disabilities and deatbn result The American College of Surgeons is taking the "lead in providing ' ethical and scientific hospital and surgical service for those meeting with accidents of any nature, and , ao far as Is possible regardless of locality. i "The better minds in aurgery are being brought to bear upon t this subject and the best approv f ed modern . methods of treatment : are being introduced into the hos- i pitals, and a knowledge of them : disseminated throughout the sur gical profession. Medical schools ; are being Induced to place more y emphasis. In the education of their I students, upon the treatment of ; the injured. "The American Railway aesoct atlon has Instructed their sur geons to utilize the hospitals ap proved by the American College of Surgeons where practicable. For the same reasons might It not be advantageous if you should util ize the approved list of hospitals In the United States and Canada for the information of your tour ists.

Oil refiners desire to produce improved motor fuel and automo bile engine manufacturers endea vor to utilize most effectively the available gasolines. With these ob jects in view, the American Petro leum Institute and the National Automobile chamber of commerce, through the society of Automotive Engineer, have been cooperating with the bureau of Standards In joint research program.

' Since gasolines are mixtures df hydrocarbons, rather than definite compounds, like benslne or alcohol. they hare boiling ranges father than boiling points and are identi fied by means of - distillation curves which show the tempera tures required to vaporize defin ite amount under specified con ditions. These temperatures are much better than those required to vaporize the same gasolines when mixed with air ln the auto mobile engine manifold. The re search staff first devised appara tus for vaporizing gasoline under engine conditions, and aa a result of measurements on a wide var iety of fuels with this equipment has found that the desired vola tility data can be computed from the usual llatlllatlon curves. A novel accelerometer, capable of recording the effect on engine speed of individual explosions, is being used to find the relative In fluence of temperature and fnel volatility on the acceleration per formance of a typical passenger car engine. Although the tendency of mo tor fuel to knock, or deonate, con cerns the motorist as much as its volatility, no simple laboratory test for anti-knock value has yet been discovered. Actual engine teste are required at present, and the immediate objective is the de velopment and general adoption of a suitable standard test equipment. DEMO CREASES FORWILLHGHT Production Speeded Up to Fill Orders; Unusual High Performance Production of the new Willys- Knight Standard Six line of motor cars has been speeded up mater ially during the past few weeks and will be continued at high pro duction, according to officials of the Willys-Overland company. This has been necessitated by a continually growing demand for; these Knight englned sixes which round out th company's croup of Willys-Knight cars. The Willys-Knight Standard six made its appearance a few months axo and immediately won a con spicuous position among the sixes In its price classification. After hundreds of these models had been placed in the hands of owners. there was a noticeable increase in the demand for the Standard Six which Willys-Overland merchants attribute to the outstanding per formance of the car, together with its introduction ln the lowest price range ever reached by a Willys- Knight car. In power and speed accomplish ments the Willys-Knight Standard Six Is said to set a new high atan- a parity with the Willys-Knight sleeve valve engines employed in the tw ohigher priced aeries of Willys-Knight sixes. e- The Standard Six ln nearjf ev ery respect retains the same char acteristics of design, performance and appearance as featured In the Wlllys-Knight special six and the Great Six. and gives the company complete coverage la the Willys Knight disvislon. This Knight englned model is marked by smart body lines with numerous innovations ln interior appointments. The rich upholstery employed ln the Standard Six blends perfectly with the striking color combinations of the exterior.
