P AGE TOTTTt MEDFCVRD MAIL TRIBUTE. MEDFORD, OftEOON. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 22, 1937 10 1 STUDIED AT '39SESSI0N World Congress Accepts Bid From Roosevelt To Meet In U. S. All Fields Of Clinical Study Included. NEW YORK (UP) The World war considered tho greatest cllntc the world ha ever known was the In spiration for an International military medical organization that today Is working not only to ameliorate the suffering of war and war conditions, but has formed the basla of more effective treatment of the sick and wounded during peace. Thtt International Congress of Mill tary Medicine and Pharmacy (which Includes all branches of medicine, surgery, sanitation and dentistry) will meet In the United State In 1038, on Invitation of President Roosevelt. The congress was sponsored by King Albert and Queen Elizabeth of the Belgians, and was conceived and organized In 1031 by Col. Jules Voncken of the Belgian military med-, leal service and Dr. William tieamen Bainbrldge, captain and medtoal di rector in the' U. 8. naval reserve. ! Meets livery Two Years Slnco then It has met every two years In the various capitals of Eu rope. It alms at the lntcmaUona il lation of ell branches of the healing art, with the ooUectlon, codification and standardization of all available knowledge so that, regardless of na tionality or position of the ever chaiigliw lines of combat, prompt, effective and uniform treatment of the sick and wounded In any war tone may be carried out without the Interruption, perhaps, of enemy suc cesses and occupation of a territory. At each congress six main topics are discussed. The country In which the congress Is held submits an offi cial report on each question, as does another nation selected for Its special experience In the subject under dis cussion. Valuable contributions on each question are also received from other countries. Toward the close of the congress, general conclusions are drawn up and are accepted only If they have the unanimous approval of all delegates. If there Is any point that Is not clear, or on which all cannot agree, the matter Is tabled for a future meeting when added expe rience or further deliberation may solve tho question In doubt. The permanent committee of the congress, appointed at the first meet ing by the king of the Belgians, Is the working and managing unit. It consists of one member from each of eight nations Belgium, Trance, Oreat Britain, Italy, Spain, Brnr.ll, Switzerland and the United States of America ( which Dr. Bainbrldge represents). The meetings of the committee are held before, during and following the congress sessions, and In alternate years when neces sary. Headquarters In Llejre The central bureau of the congress Is located In Liege, Belgium, and here also Is conducted another branch of the dally working activity of the orgs n lea t Ion the International office of medico military documentation, which Is under the supervision of the secretary-general, Colonel Voncken. At this office are collected documents, books, articles on military medical topics, and various material relating to the medical services of all coun tries. Accredited representatives of governments are at liberty to utilize this office for reference, and there Is a depsrtment that answers tech nical questions received by mall from all over the world. Immediately after past wars cer tain phases of medical, surgical and as ni tary experiences have been sum marized. The result of a battle on the Jifo or limb of the combatants, the Immediate treatment given, spe cial operations performed soon after the Infliction of an Injury, have be come part of medico-military history. Monaco Pact Drawn In 1933, when the congress was meeting In Madrid, the Principality of Monaco was represented for the first time. Experts In International law from various countries were also present. The active Interest of Prince Louts II of Monaco was aroused and. In 1934, he Invited the permanent committee and leaders In interna tional law to a week's conference at his palace. The result of this con ference Is the so-called pact of Mo naco, which alms toward the hu manlzatlon of war, and has as Its goal the realization of the following five points: 1, Organization of medical zones and towns, 3. Medical assistants by non-belltg-o rents. a. Treatment of prisoners of war. 4. Measures spplloable In case of violations of the convention, 6. Protection of the civil popu latlon. E AS PERILS I President Cardenas Forced ! To Give Ground As Means Of Averting a Financial Crisis Unrest Noted. wis t btg blow to agricultural pro ductlon, as the years Immediately following the cutting up of Dig hacltndas Invariably reault in re duced crop,. And to get the com munal agrarian system started, it Is necessary for the government to spend millions of pesos keeping tne peasants fed, buying them seeds, machinery and fertilizer. To add to the hard luck wmcn "truck Mexico, the cotton crop at I taguna was severely damaged by drouth, while most of the wheat and corn (maize) crops were dam aged by hsll snd excessive rains. Mexico, the land which originated corn and cocoa, began to Import these srtlcles, and more recently wheat waa Imported which shows how deficient bss been the agri cultural production this yesr In this agricultural nation. Furthermore, the drop In the cotton prices Is snother blow to the La La guns experiment. Things In Mexico got so Dsd a few weeks ago that on all corner could be heard talk of the "Im pending crisis" as If It were Just ss certain to came as the dry sea son Is to succeed the rainy season every year. Naturally, the small po litical opposition to Cardenss took full advantage of the situation to spread rumors thst this country would be a "second Bpsln" If con ditions did not soon Improve. One of the best outlines of tne situation waa the recent report oy the Banco Naclonal da fcxlco. one of the nation's most Important pri vate banks. Among other things It said: The coat of living has risen from a ratio of 100 in 1834 to lu In 1037. This means that tne amount of money spent for food has so lncresssd that the purchases of other articles begin to decline. This may be the beginning of a chain of disturbancea and calami ties which one must at all costs seek to avoid. . . , There la danger of a crash. Even tf the building trades continue busy and the gov ernment ' persists in Its policy of public works, It will not matter. If consumers' goods resch the point which they ere now approaching (In price), there will be a crisis In other branches, which will even tually affect everything." The reserves of gold and allver guaranteeing the currency and de posits of the Bank of Mexico (the central bank) were atlll high on September 18. at 99.37 per cent, yet this wss a drop from 63.3 percent on July 31.

Friend and foe alike have been warning Cardenas that Mexican fi nances were none too secure. Big government spending, strikes and the flight of foreign capital, they told him, could not continue in definitely In the face of bad crops and enormous Increase in the cost of living without producing a crash. The president decided there was need for caution. His socialistic pro gram of (land distribution, road bulldlng, Irrigation works, construc tion of schools and railroads will not be abandoned, but will bs slow ed somewhat. Move Attains Dignity Simultaneously, a new concep tion of "The Revolution" Is being created by subtle propaganda. In writing, oratory, radio and movies. In the old days, Mexico shied at being referred to ns the country or revolutions. Nowadays a new dig nity Is being given to the entire revolutionary movement beginning in 1910. which Is called "The Rev olution." . . "The Revolution" has thus be come a living thing, which projects Itself Into the future. Wise polltl-; clans who were too young to par ticipate in the battles of the revo lutions nevertheless call themselves "revoluclonarlos." "The Revolution." according to some Mnxlcan commentators, was one of the things which Inspired Franklin D- Roosevelt to adopt a scheme which he called "The New Deal" when he became president. Living fcwls Skyrocket For two years, Cardenas enjoyed prosperity and an unconditional ap proval by the United States of all he did. Recently, however, his sit uation suddenly changed. Numerous strikes, government spending and Inflationary effecta ot the Roosevelt sliver purchase plan forced the cost of living In Mexico to unheard 01 proportions. The vast distribution of land parried out under Cardenas Schilling Van The civil population of the Pans-1 ma Canal Zone Is 39,190, of whom J 8,417 are Americans. r VTAMIN A ? - 1 j ' saMa-swassssasssasa.
