Beverly HUlt CalU. PATIENTS SHOULD Patient recently delivered In a snooty hospital where the hut hand is not Dermitted to remain witn nis wuu during dellv ery of course not happen ed to have some expert knowledge of surgical asep sis. So when the nurse at t en ding her dropped a pad dressing on the floor, pick Dr. Brady ed it up and was about to apply it, the pa tient cried out in dismay and demanded a sterile dressing. The nurse thereupon adopted a characteristically surly demean nr and what is worse, she got anrnv with it. thanks to the wretched standards in the hospl tal. When the patient reported the incident to her physician the doctor, being subservient to the gang running the hospital, mere ly tried to laugh it off as of no significance, and laughed him self out of the further patronage of the patient's lamny.. Such atrocious offenses against the safety of the patient are com mitted many times a day in hos nltals of shady character, in the office of physicians, specialists and dentists, and it is high time that the public become familiar with the principles of asepsis so that these dangerous doctors, surgeons, specialists, dentists and nurses may be compelled to give patients a break. A patient in the chair of a dentist waited while the dentist answered the telephone, jingled keys, etc., in his pocket, handled things on his desk, wrote down a memorandum, and ' then at tempted to continue working in the patient's mouth without wasting any of his valuable time washing his hands. The patient properly protested. . The tooth mechanic, for of course he was nothing else, thereupon waxed sarcastic and never did any more work for the patient's fam ily. It would be only Justice If both of these patients brought suits against the dirty hospital and the dirty dentist for damages ( ''"'fa u m -vC "-t "f'1l lEy, w t PIGMY FLAT TOP-Formor merchant ships converted Into nlr plano carriers by Royal Navy in Canada, also carry cargoes.

It might teach these dangerous people a wholesome lesson If they were required to compensate some of their victims for the damage done by their filthy methods. A nose and throat specialist's highly officious office girl (she purports to be a nurse, of course) went from patient to patient, in the waiting room, applying nose sprays or swabs to prepare the patient for the examination or treatment by the doctor. She had crl herself. One patient ask ed why she did not wear a mask. The girl brazened it out, pre suming upon the ignorance of the laity, by saying the doctor didn't approve of wearing masks masks might frighten some patients, you know . . . and the patient who dared to wonder about the breach of simple asepsis made some excuse to get out of the dangerous environ ment of that office, before the so-called nurse would give hei a sample of whatever she had. The patient never consulted the dirty nose and throat specialist again. ANSWERS AND QUESTIONS Come. Come.

BN ASK HIGH COURT TO BLOCK ORDER Washington, Dec. 28 (U.R) Attorneys for Harry Bridges west coast leader of the Long snoremen's union (CIO) asked me supreme court todav to blnrk an order for his deportation to nusiraua. Bridges appealed from a ninth circuit court of appeals decision arnrming denial of a writ of habeas corpus to him by Fed eral Judge Martin I. Welch of California. Bridges requested the wrii to circumvent a deporta tion order Issued by Attorney General Francis Biddle In May, 1942. Btddle found that Bridges was affiliated with the communist party and ordered his deporta tion on the grounds that the par ty taught "violent overthrow of the United States government." In his appeal, Bridges denied that he ever had been a com munist and said the evidence re lied upon by Biddle "Is only the debris of an elaborate and am bitious structure built upon the testimony of witnesses most of whom were the dregs of the waterfront, and whom the gov ernment should have quickly recognized as such."

Washington, Dee. 28 (U.R) Gen. Peyton C. March, World War I army chief of staff, said today in an interview on his 80th birthday that it was "al most unthinkable" that the Ger mans were able to mass men and material for their current offensive without American in telligence discovering what was going on. The man who directed the transportation of 2,000,000 U. S. soldiers to Europe in the last war said the allies would even tually fight their way to Berlin despite the Germans' current successes. Can Be Unpleasant But as a result of Von Rund- stedt break-through, he added, the Germans "can be mighty unpleasant for perhaps months to come. "It is almost unthinkable. March said, "that 200,000 men could be massed against our lines and we not know about it, That many persons equals the population of Richmond, Va. Can you Imagine the whole population of Richmond moving toward Washington without our knowing about it?" March said the Germans ap parently hoped to capture the big American supply bases around Liege and perhaps to take Antwerp, the allies' best port for supplying the armies on the western front. He said the Germans' present drive is very different from their last great offensive in 1918 when they nearly broke through allied lines to the English chan nel. Almost Succeeded Then General Ludendorff had good hopes of winning the war. His offensive hit between the British and the other allies with the aim of splitting them apart and reaching the channel. He almost succeeded. This German offensive has more limited objectives. It prob ably is Intended mainly to "seize our supply bases. March said the current enemy offensive should have been tor- seen "because it is the classic method of defense and has been used before, especially by the Germans. He said he believed the Amer ican intelligence service had re lied so much on the high qual ity of information supplied by various underground movements before the allies reached Ger many that "they were unprepar ed to cope with the problem of inlormation out of Germany it self." "Hitler has purged any ele ments that might give the allies information and so there are no betrayals , from the German side," he added. 18b" MORlTsHips , Washington, Dec.
