Caesarian Birth Safer Now
For Mother Than for Child
Pittsburgh, March 15 W) A panel of top-flight baby doctors
reports birth by Caesarean section surgical delivery of a baby
has become safer for a mother than for her child.
At a meeting of some 700 physicians, members of the American
College of Surgeons, Dr. Franklin L. Payne, professor of ob-
etetrics and gynecology at the
University of Pennsylvania, de
clared Caesarean deliveries are
now ten times safer for mothers
than they were 30 years ago.
Since 1920, Dr. Payne report
ed, the death rate for mothers
following Caesarean deliveries
has dropped from one in ten to
one In 100. The decline in in
fant mortalities following such
operations, he said, has not been
as great. The infant death rate,
he said, is now about six in 100.
Another member of the panel
discussion which ' yesterday
marked the opening session of a
two-day meeting was Dr. Charles
J. Barone, Pittsburgh surgeon.
Dr. Barone said recent med
ical advances have turned the
tables on age-old tradition which
held Caesarean deliveries were
always more dangerous for the
mother than for her unborn infant.
Caesarean deliveries have
been known to medicine since
the time of the Roman Empire
2,000 years ago. They are named
for Caesar, not because he was
born that way. but for a law is
ued during the reign which
ruled such births were legal,
Rex law, as it was called, gave
eermisslon for surgical deliver
ies even though it might cost!
the life of the mother. The hope
was that the infant saved by
urgery might be a boy and thus
might some day grow up to be
a Roman soldier.
Dr. Payne credited improved
medical techniques and their wi
der use in recent years with
making surgical deliveries saf
er for mothers. He noted such
medical milestones as blood
transfusions and new medicines
He added this word of cau
tion, however:
"Even though the risk to the
mother has been reduced, it is
no justification for doing a Cae
sarean section at the present
time unless such an operation is
an absolute medical necessity.
'Remember, a mother's chance
of surviving a normal vaginal
delivery is still far greater than
99 percent."
The doctors are not sure when
the human race passed the mile
stone and Caesarean deliveries
became safer for mothers than
babies. Probably it happened
within the past ten years.
Dr. Barone said men of med
icine have long been aware that
the post-Cacsarean death rate
for mothers Is dropping. He
said the figure probably fell be
low that for infants "sometime
after 1940, when the sulfa drugs
and penicillin came into wide
use."
Who Will Win?
Rabbit or Owl?
Chicago, March 15 W) A
friendly rabbit which has been
hanging around Mrs. Jane
Heinze's house for food, appears
in danger of an attack by
great horned owl.
Mrs. Heinze said the big owl
has been making its home in a
pine tree for the last 10 days and
has been casting menacing
glances' at the rabbit.
Dr. A. L. Rand, curator of
birds at the Chicago natural his
tory museum, was pessimistic
about the chances for the rab
bit. "There is every possibility
the owl will get the rabbit," said
Dr. Rand.

Korean Head

(South) Korea republic today
won his fight to keep control of
his own cabinet.

amendment to make the cabinet
responsible to the national as
sembly failed to muster the
necessary two-thirds vote of as
semblymen present.
Of the 179 assemblymen on

33 against it, and 66 cast blank

Impeachment of
Judge Sought
Columbia, S.C., March 15 W
-The South Carolina house of
representatives voted today to
put up $10,000 to finance the
proposed impeachment of U.S.
District Judge J. Waties Waring
of Charleston.
The bill calling for the appro
priation was introduced last
week by Rep. John D. Long of
Union.
Waring's 1947-48 orders open
ed state democratic primary vot
ing and party membership to
negroes. Since then, he and
Mrs. Waring have been outspok
en in behalf of negro rights. Mrs.
Waring has said she does not
object . to mutually agreeable
interracial marriages.
Long's bill says the resolution
is based "on the grounds that he
(Waring) and his northern-born
wife have advocated a negro
revolution against white su
premacy . . ."
