Speaking before Cincinnati mem bers of the American Institute of Electric Engineers and the Ameri can Society of Mechanical Engi neers, G. Edward Pendray, as sistant to the president of the West inghouse Electric and Manufactur ing company, declared however that other factors such as projectile or plane design and adequate control preclude realization of such service "for mail, express or other cargo’* for at least 10 years.

Working with Capt. Ken Wilson of Ottawa, Maj. W. T. Mustard of To ronto inserted glass tubing to bridge shattered arteries temporarily and maintain a blood supply in wound ed limbs that normally would have to be amputated. “The use of glass tubes to replace arteries has been demonstrated in animals,’’ the major said, “but as far as we know this is the first time it has been done in humans.” Dr. Mustard said the procedure already had saved the shell-shat tered legs of a Canadian private and a British captain. The opera tion was performed on a prisoner of war but the blood clotted in the tube and the leg had to be ampu I tated. Heparin solved the problem of clotting. new equipment—tout for maintenance of roadbeds, tracks, biidges, stations, etc. This maintenance is being greatly neglected today. Personally, I had much rather buy the stocks of companies which sell equipment to the railroads than to buy the stocks of the railroads.

S. 1ST ARMY IN GERMANY. — Hitler lost another convert when a gaunt, haggard Ger man army officer staggered out of the ruins of Aachen to surrender to American soldiers garrisoned in the wrecked town. This officer had believed Hitler’s promise that the Allies would be thrown off the soil of the Fatherland. He had waited in hiding for more than three .weeks without food, ex pecting a counterattack would set him free. But it never came. "Three weeks without food is too much, even for the Fuehrer,'* h* said in a resigned voice.
