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. A high tribute was paid to
army medical corpsmen and
nurses for their contribution to
this effort. The efficiency of the
ATS and other transportation
units and the skill of army medi
cal officers were also lauded by
Durno, Just back from Europe.
"France was glad to see the
Americans come and will be
glad to see them leave" Major
Durno said in highlighting some
of his personal impressions of
the war. "The British are out to
get what they can and can't for
get that they fought the war
alone In its eary stages. 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."
In discussing English medicine
Major Durno explained that sur
gery is confined principally to
specialists, and that their sur
geons are as good or better than
those in the U. S. but their num
ber is too limited.
The speaker, who witnessed
some of the Nazi bombing of
London and subsequent assault
upon Germany, said that the
devastation of German and Hol
land cities was far greater than
bomb damage in London. He al
so described the flourishing
black market in Paris, with ruin
ous Inflation held only in check
with U. S. financial support.
Major Durno was introduced
by George Gates, program chair
man. Vice-president Morris
Leonard presided in the absence
of Tom Wray, Rotary president.
