BATTLEFIELDWERE
SURGICAL LABORATORIES
NOTED " PHYSICIAN SAYS
PORTLAND, Ore., gept 27.
(I. N. 8.) Terrible as the World
i War was, It was not without vast
benefits, according to Dr. Frana-
lin H. Martin, secretary-general
of the American College of Sur-
"geons, who attended the con
s' gress of the Oregon section of
the college here.
One of those benefits, he said,
was the advancement of surgery..
"Surgery learned some valu-.
able lessons in the war," Dr.
Martin asserted. "The battle
s' fields furnished a great labora-
tory, In which new and import
s' ant secrets of the human body
were learned.
'' "Ten years ago no surgeon
dared to operate on the lungs el
s' cept In a pneumatic cabinet,
with all the air pressure so ad
. Justed that it balanced that of
the lnngs. The-war taught us
that this was unnecessary and
lung operations are performed
every day now in standard ope-
rating rooms with absolute safe-
tv. V
"Wo leameA that a man could
lose one-third of a lung and still
recover. We learned that the
removal of brain tissue Itself
could be made In many cases.
Our whole technique of dperat-
4 Ing was vastly Improved. in
fact, through these discoveries,
It would not be going much too
far to say that the war.
through the surgical lessons tt
taught, will save almost as many
lives In the long run as It cost."
, Dr. Martin stated that as a re-
suit of their work during the
war American Burgeons are now
recognized as the. best in the
world.
