(United PrtwK Stuff CorrcupomlontT
Calcutta IP) India faces the
threat of a plague epidemic
which might reach the propor
tions of that which swept the
sub continent at the turn of the
century, one authority believes.
The warning was sounded by
Dr. S. C. Seal, professor of epi
demiology, All-India Institute of
Hygiene and Public Health.
History has been found to re
peat itself in the matter of bu
bonic plague epidemics, accord
ing to the professor, and unless
all concerned the people them
selves no less than the health
authorities take the utmost pre
cautions, the present outbreak
may well develop as did that of
1898.
The dread disease originally ap
peared in Calcutta in 1895, but
only in a mild form. Three years
later, however, it flared into an
epidemic which apparently noth
ing could check. For eight long
years it raged, and when it fi
nally subsided in 1906 the toll
of lives it had taken in the city
alone was ,62,000.
w" ninth Toll High
The death roll in Bengal presi
dency was. 1898,219; 1899.3.264;
1900, 38.412; 1901. 7S.629; 1902,
32.967; 1903, 65.680; 1904, 75,438;
1905, 126.084; 1906, 59.619.
Meanwhile, the epidemic had
been sweeping the country .as a
whole with the most disastrous
effect.
Fifty-three years after making
its first appearance in Calcutta,
plague made its second in April,
1948. Again, it was in compara
tively mild form.
This year's outbreak has not
yet reached epidemic dimensions,
but it has stretched put longer
and is taking a heavier toll than
did that of 1348. A further com
plication has been the appear
ance of pneumonia plague, more
contagious and a deadlier killer,
if not correctly diagnosed in
time, than the bubonic variety.
Many New Cases
, According to the latest official
figures available, there were 159
hospital admissions of plague
cases in the city between Janu
ary and April this year. Deaths
numbered 18.
Whether history will repeat it
self on this occasion is yet to be
seen. Dr. Seal points out that
medical science has progressed
far in the past half century, and
today knowledge of the scourge
is much wider and means of com
batting it more readily available
and highly effective.
One qf the sulfa drugs, sulpha
thiazole, has been found effec
tive in the treatment of plague
and might well keep a new epi
demic of the disease under con
trol. The co-operation of potential
victims in offering themselves
for inoculation and destroying
rats and fleas is still of the high
est importance if the spread of
the disease is to be checked be
fore it gets out of control.

Radiation Injury
Treatment Tried
By Paul F. Ellis
ItJiiiu-tt I'renH Science WriU-r)
New York 'll'i A chemical sub
stance developed from oak bark
may have value in treating in
jury from radiation.
In tests on experimental ani
mals, it already has shown evi
dence of Increasing the resistance
of the capillaries to rupture and
oilier damaging Influences, such
as that from radlution.
Studies of the new substance
are being conducted by scientists
In the research laboratories of
the Scripps Metabolic clinic, La
Julia, Calif.
Medical scientists in many la
boratories are now seeking medi
cal ways to treat radiation in
jury, such as from an atomic
bomb explosion but no such test
with the new substance has been
made. As In all new projects,
tesls are made first on experi
mental animals,
The Scripps scientists isolated
the substance during a study of
the so-called vitamin P com
pounds that in some medical cir
cles are being used as a co-factor
with vitamin C In the treatment
of nutritional deficiency in hu
man beings.
The investigation here has
shown that vitamin P com
pounds, which occur In lemon
peel, in various types of flower
blossoms and from the buck
wheat flower, seem to have some
biological activity, but that they
do not enhance the action
vitamin C
was aided financially by Califor
nia fruit growers, U.S. public
service, the S. B. Penick Co. and
Hoffman-La Roche.
Development of the vitamin P
compound known as rutin, which
is obtained from buckwheat, fol
lowed tests in Europe with an
other P substance known as clt
rin. Both were believed to com
bat bleeding diseases, and some
investigators claimed that rutin
would decrease the weakness of
the capillary walls, thereby be-.
of Ing of help in high blood pres-
l sure.
The findings were made after Thus, they are tediously
a three-year investigation, which ' lating the substances
