ZiONDOK (CT) Medical science
U within reach of a "truly rational
treatment" of pnaumonla after being
almost helpless for centuries agalnst
tha high death toll of the disease,
according to one of Great Britain's
outstanding medical authorities.
Dr. W. H. Wynn, professor of med
icine at the University of Birming
ham, aald that one of the most hope
ful signs Is the rapidity with which
"medieval remedies" ' are being
shown to have no benefits.
His observstlons were made In a
recent Issue of the British Medical
Journal.
Pneumonia, he said, la the most
widespread and fatal of the acute
dtseaaea prevalent In civilized coun
tries and, until the last two or three
years, tta toll of lives Increased
steadily while the toll of tubercu
losis, typhoid fever, smallpox and
scarlet fever dropped.
"It would seem." he said, "that
critical examination Is depriving us
of several time-honored remedies, but
we have the consolation that If our
faith In oertaln remedies has proved
false, yet. our means of preventing
serlpus symptoms are ateadlly Im
proving and we are within sight of a
truly rational treatment of a disease
which takes a heavy toll at all ages
of the strong as well aa the weak."
Dr. Wynrl said no drug Is known
which has a specific action or ma
terially influencea the progress o!
pneumonia and aside from scien
tific sntl-bscterla methoda and Im
provements In nursing there has bierj
bo real advance since the first in
troduction of expectant treatment.
"Much of our treatment" he
added, "la traditional and has no
rational foundation and the mortal
ity, although varying ftm year tr.
year, remains at about 30 per cent"
The Birmingham professor Is an
advocate of the vaccine treatment
but urges the Importance of early
Jlagnosta and prompt action, ex
plaining that the fate of the patient
la decided In the first 48 hours.

If Doug's Married, Mary Has a Divorce
So Says Filmdom, Finally Accepting a Fact
Now that Doug Fairbanks and Lady Ashley are married, the old-time film fans who hoped for reconcilia
tion of Doug and Mary Pick ford, agree that Mary's divorce is final.
By ROBBIN COOKS
HOLLYWOOD. Sometimes In Hol
lywood only a marriage can make a
divorce final, even when format part
ing papers have been Issued and so.
now that Douglas Fairbanks and Lady
Ashley are wed at last, Mary Plckford
has a divorce.
She got her papers, those who still
follow the entanglements of Holly
wood's one-time "perfect romance
will recall, last January.
But that did not still recurring
rumors of reconciliation with the
globe-trotting actor who for 'nearly
15 years reigned with her at Plcklalr,
filmland's erstwhile Buckingham pal
ace. Mary did nothing to encourage the
rumors, and neither 4id Doug. But
the reports bobbed up now and then
to flutter the hearts of those old
time film fans who remember Mary's
long golden curls and Doug's fence
leaping prowess of a departed movie
era.
Mary Broadcasts at Plckfalr
Hollywood keeps healing that Mary
will marry Charles ("Buddy") Rogers,
the actor-orchestra leader, who Is 10
years her Junior, and that Buddy,
when, and If. they marry, will not
llva at Plckfalr, the big white house
on the hill.

Onoe the center of Hollywood's most
publicized warm affection, Plckfalr
lately has been the once -a-week scene
of Producer - Writer - Actress Mary's

The place, however,' Is In Mary's
name, which fairly precludes any pos

return there to live, even If Mary be

Menace of Communism
Stressed by Banwell
Tha following address on rommuii Ism was delivered March 11, by A.
Banwell manager of the Jacltwn Count) Chamber of Commerce:
Ordinarily, tn making a fOk to ai
group such as this. I use no notes,
but by virtue of the fact that the
sunject I shall attempt to discuss
today Is of a controversial nature,
and to a certain extent outside of
the territory of work embraced by
the organisation X represent. I feel
I ohould read from notes.
I do not want you to misunder
stand me. Z do not feel that any
statement that I might make Is of
surb importance that criticism may
result. I am not that egotistical yet.
bur because it haa become a favorite
Indoor sport recently to crltlclr
someone who leaves the realm of his
own business to discuss a national
sublect. I believe X am entitled to
protect the Chamber of Commerce
against any misquotation, so for thst
rean my notes are available to any
one. mere are many men In Medford
more able than I to discuss the sub
ject of Communism; but It baa In
terested me greatly and I have been
fortunate enough to be asked to dts
cu& the subject before groups sucb
as this during the past 13 months,
many times.
Many chambers of commerce and
similar groups of business men have,
during the past few months, been
giving very serious consideration to
subversive activities In the United
States. Many of these organisations
have submitted recommendations to
their members, on this question of
Communism. We believe that every
cltlren should acquaint herself, or
himself, with what Is going on along
communistic lines. In view of the
recorit wldespresd activities of Com
munists In the United States, the
ver foundation upon which this na
tion Is built, and on which It nss
prospered la being seriously threat
ened Event of the past year not
ablv the extent of communist par
ticipation In fomenting and conduct
ing a number of industrial strikes
have given the nubject a genuine and
substantial business slgnlflcence.
Were our governmental Institutions
to be destroyed or seriously Impaired
th business consequences would oe
of the first magnitude. Furthermore,
when agitation for primarily political
purposes extends to tne fomenting of
Industrial unrest, sabotage, and the
pivAoktng of general strikes, such
subversive activities take on a real
and Immediate Importance, In
str.ctlv business sense. In other
wcrds, here Is a very realistic bust
net problem with which a Chamber
of Commerce Is Ideally equipped to
cope.
The suppression and elimination
of Communistic activities must have
Its driving force In ths "grass-roots"
of the country, In every community,
ratner than in any centrauzea
"Washington, D. C.M attempt. Con
stant propaganda and continued re
newed activity by Communist in
America during recent years make It
highly Important that citizens letld
their support to any legislation which
may be suggested to curb this ever
Increasing curse and challenge to our
American liberty.
The Communist party waa organised
In America In 1010, and Its mem
berrhlp at that time consisted mostly
of foreign-born workers. It wa,
however, driven under cover by the
government under wartime powers, al
most as fcoon as It wa organised.
However. In 1038. the party boldly
came out with its present name
"Tbe Communistic Party of the
United States,' and remember, this
party Is a member of the "Commun
ist international," In Russia.
A review of the votes east by the
party -In presidential elections, shows
that the popular vote for the Com
munist candidate for president in
1932 was double that of 1938. and
mote than three times the vote of
1034. The total number of Com
munists and active Communist sym
pathizers In the United tSates. waa
estimated at over half a million in
1030. The sworn dally circulation of
Communist newspapers, 363 ,000, alto
lno'cates that th Communist and
their sympathisers probably total
mure than a half million.
The Communist party of th United
Sta'ea has a great many subsidiary
and auxiliary organisations. A con-
grocalonal report give th names of
these organisations which Indicates
the widespread ramifications of Com
munistic propaganda throughout im
portant branches of American life.
Th persistent efforts of the Com
munist party, throughout the world
to overturn existing government by
Inciting unrest and fanning labor stid
racial hatred la reflected somewhat
In the number, of disturbances which
occurred In 1033-1033. During these
same years, the Communist party in
the United States stirred up trouble
In many cases.
Many examples oould be quoted.
In 1834 they participated tn many
str'kes held In thla country. Once
a strike haa begun, or la Imminent.
Communist strike leaders from other
cities, trained in the technique of
Communist activities arrive on the
asene. and take charge of operations.
They pretend to be In sympathy with
the alma of the atrlkera for higher
wages, shorter hours, and better
working conditions, but eventually
they oppose adjustment of th strike,
preferring to have It continue for
th purpose of promoting clssa hat
red and a Communistic revolution
ary attitude among the worker.
