Auo. li. 1845 MAI DURNO SAYS CUT CASUALTIES Speedy evacuation of wound ed from combat areas and ample supplies of blood, blood plasma, lulfa drugs and penicilin made it possible to save a hlRh per centage of casualties in the Eur opean invasion. Major Edwin R. Durno told members of the Med ford Rotary club In an address Tuesday noon at the Hotel Med ford.

Some Englishmen hold the belief that their empire is on Its way out, and practically all of them were outspoken in their wish for Roosevelt to be re elected In the last presidential race. English people seem more Interested in us than we seem to ba in them."
