Prices reacted after the com posite average had reached a fur ther new high since early No vember, 1941, but trading vol ume expanded slightly over yes terday's moderate pace. There was little in the news to influence stock prices and brokers ascribed the irregular decline largely to consolidation of recent gains. NAVY'S MEDICAL CORPS HAS 01 By Charles P. Arnot United Press Staff Correspondent An Advance U. S. Base in the South Pacific Delayed) (U.R) With hammers and saws, they build their own hospitals. With scalpels and dressings, they treat the wounded. These are the U. S. navy's "medical commandos" versa tile men of mobile units who are trained to go ashore while fight ing is under way and establish their own hospital facilities. Beneath tropical palm trees at this advance . base, the medical 'shock troops" have moved In ! and erected an ultra-modern clin ic with complete facilities. Two weeks ago the hospital site was merely a vacant ex panse along the seashore. Now neat rows of gray buildings can be seen among the trees. I want ed to know the secret of this rec ord achievement. We are known as mobile units because we really are mo bile, even though our facilities actually are not on wheels," Capt. A. L. Lindall, Medical Corps, of Parker's Prairie, Minn., told me. "Our units are ready to move, at a moment's notice, to any place where the war brings a need for our services." Lindall, the executive officer of this unit, showed me the crates which a few days ago con tained the unit's buildings, trucks, ambulances, medical equipment and other facilities. "We use pre fabricated mate rials for our buildings to save time," he said. "Some of these buildings here now were erected in half a day. If we were pressed for time, we would have many of them erected and equipped in a single day." All these units need is a small piece of land and running water to set up hospitals better equip ped than many civilian institu tions of comparable size. Finds Doctor on Ladder I saw one doctor, a brain spe cialist, climbing a ladder to put the finishing touches on a build ing that soon would house thou sands of dollars worth of modern X-ray equipment. Another vet eran doctor was directing the laying of tile in one of the two large and completely-equipped operating rooms. In an elaborate laboratory, al ready in operation, I found Bru.w.ra leva it Mats 1:43 Eves 6:45-9 40e-25c-llc inc. tax S0c-2Sc-lle inc. tax Ends Thursday Nlghtl Buy War Bonds Heral This Swell Big Featurel COMING NEXT! eioioi MUIPHT I ate 7 I! A mSSILE THAT MISSED This Japanese torpedo, launched at American ship during battle ofl Solomon Islands, wound up high and dry on beach at Guadalcanal after missing its mark. It's pic tured where it came to rest, before "suicide" 0. S. Marine unit took it in charge, for disposal - half-dozen medical corps men with their eyes glued to micro scopes. "They are studying the mala rial conditions here," Lindall ex plained. "We must prevent dis ease as well as treat the sick and wounded." Doctors and medical corps men are manning this particular unit. Their all-around training has enabled them to erect their own hospitals and install com plicated electrical, refrigeration, water and sanitation systems with a minimum of outside as sistance. An officer of the navy civil en gineering corps is in general charge of construction, but the doctors themselves supervise much of the work, some of which generally would require the serv ices of skilled technicians. Versatility is the basic require ment for all medical officers. In addition to being a general prac titioner, each is a specialist in a different kind of medicine or surgery. The officer personnel representing every needed skill. includes specialists in orthopedic surgery, preventative medicine, dentistry, psychiatry, pathology. dermathology. thoracic surgery and abdominal surgery. The units are so trained that some doctors and their aids will care for the wounded while oth ers unload and uncrate materials and equipment. Like commandos, these men are trained in team work -and know how to work fast and efficiently under any cir cumstances. Each unit is self-contained so its doctors and pharmacists' mates not only have to be skilled in medical practice, but also must be able to wield hammers, saws and other building Implements. Some are qualified electricians, others serve as plumbers. . Should the enemy strike while work is in progress, officers and men alike are trained to trade their tools for steel helmets and gas masks. Since officers and men of the medical corps are re stricted by international agree ment to using weapons only to defend themselves, each unit has its complement of guards. These seamen are highly trained in commando fighting tactics, and can use all types of weapons. a, - II - LL 1 Jl iA MgllU um t:4j-y.Uty zou Inc. Kiddles lie Inc.
