Besides the swimming pool, where patients who sre slowly regaining use of limbs left helpless by infantile paralysis, diathermy machines and i ultra violet lamps are used In tho treatment. Two relatively new pieces of ap paratus, the pavex machine and the pressure cuff. Rre also employed by physical therapists. The pavex machine resembles a glss boot which fits over the leg. A motor alternately creates a pres sure and vacuum to stimulate cir culation. The machine Is useful In warding off gangrene or aiding cir culatory systems attacked by harden ing of the arteries. The pressure cuff accomplishes much the same purpose. However, the body does the work Instead of a mo tor. The cuff resembles a band doc tors wrap around the arm for taking blood pressure. Pressure is turned on for two and one-half minutes after the pressure cuff Is in place around arm or leg. During this time, blood In veins Is stopped, and only arteries function. The arteries carry blood to the veins, which dUate and force bloud Into smaller blood vessels where richer circulation is needed. WIFE OF MAESTRO LOS ANGELES. Aug. 23.

"Birth of a Baby" Now at Craterian There has never before been a pic ture like "The Birth of a Baby." which opened at the Craterian the atre yesterday. The usual critical vo cabulary Is useless In discussing the film, for the film itself Is more then Just a movie. It t truth; vital, ex citing, clean and unashamed truth. About all a reviewer can do Is tell what the picture la about and then stand on a street corner and exhort passers-by to hurry to the Craterlsn theatre and see for themselves. Filmed under the guidance of the American Committee on Maternal Welfare, "The Birth of a Baby" Is simply what the title Implies a film showing the processes Involved In having a baby. It should be msde emphatically clear, here and now, that the picture Is clean. Clean as only truth oan be clean, without a trace of the sug gestive, the vulgar or the evil-minded. The story Is a plain one. Mary Burgess, a typical young American wife, Is going to have a baby. The doctor tells her that she ha been wise In coming to him early In her pregnancy, explaining dearly the biological fundamentals Involved in having bablee. The climax of the picture Is, of course, the minutes when the miracle of birth takes places. Only the pic ture as It was filmed oan do Justice to the power of that sequence, power religious In Its Intensity and purity. In 1037 New Mexico had the high est birth-rate In the country, New Jersey the lowest.
