X-Rays For All This Week
"THE Jackson County Public Health association has
earned the gratitude of the people of this com
munity in bringing a mobile X-ray unit here this wee k
to ferret out the stealthy and deadly tubercle bacillus,
high on the list of public enemies.
And the best way to express this gratitude is to ex
tend full and wholehearted support to this far-sighted,
far-reaching health program.
a e a
THE mobile unit can take as many as 160 35mm X-
ray pictures in a single hour, and these tiny pic
tures reveal the presence of lurking tubercle bacillus
in the early, cureable stages of tuberculosis, often be
fore outward symptoms appear. Those whose films
show positive reaction (statistics clearly show that
unknown earners are right here and in every com
munity) will be personally notified by the county
public health officer. Results of the simple test are
entirely confidential. To those who might unknow
ingly have the disease we offer the encouragement
that it can be cured if discovered in its early stages.
The test is brief, easy, free.
TUBERCULOSIS is "catching", not inherited. It is
nt'atranf ahlfl krr iirli?rVi a r. 11 n fa "fni fViia anafirafi's
campaign throughout Oregon. Deaths which it causes
have steadily declined as public enlightenment has
increased in recent years. In sending mobile A-ray
units forth, the public health services are bringing up
the heavy artillery and tanks in a determined attack
upon a disease suffered by a halt-million Americans.
a a a a a
THE mobile X-ray unit opens its Jackson county
1 campaign at Gold Hill Tuesday, November 27,
moving on to Central Fomt Wednesday and to Med
ford Thursday where it remains until December 4. On
December 5 and 6 it will cover the Ashland area.
Those who find it impossible to be X-rayed during the
day may visit the unit Friday evening. As the darker
time for tuberculosis lies between 30 and 59 years of
age, emphasis will be placed upon men and women
in that age group.
THE mobile X-ray program takes its place along
with six other major steps in the long and gallant
crusade against "consumption". First was Leeuwen-
hoek and the microscope, then Jfasteur who told men
that microbes caused disease. Robert Koch was the
first to isolate the tuberculosis eerm. Edward J ru
deau, in his little red cottage in New York state, intro
duced the first tuberculosis sanitorium and then
William Roentgen's X-ray enabled doctors to see the
very first signs of the disease.

SINCE 1907, the little Chjistmas Seal that insures

Washington. Nov. 24 0J.R)
The U. S. government has re
jected urgent and repeated
recommendations of Gen. Doug
las MacArthur for Immediate
trial of former Japanese Pre
mier Hidekl Tojo for offenses
against the United States, it was
learned tonight, and has decreed
that Instead Tojo must be tried
first as an International war
criminal.
In an exchange of messages
with the war department over
a period of more than six weeks,
it was learned, MacArthur re
peatedly recommended an Im
mediate trial of the Jap war
lord responsible for the sneak
attack of Dec. 7, 1941, on Pearl
Harbor.
The war department disclosed
last night that because of inter
national aspects MncArthur has
been forbidden to proceed Im
mediately, as he wished to do,
with the trial of Tojo, or with
the trials of other Japanese of
ficials who might be charged
with waging a war of aggression
In violation of international
treaties.
The state department, the an
nouncement said, is consulting
with other governments con
cerned, and ToJo's prosecution,
presumably on an international
basis, will begin at "the earliest
practicable date."

HALSEY WILL BE
L
Pasadena, Cal., Nov. 24 (U.R)
Adm. William F. "Bull" Halsey
today accepted an invitation to
be grand' marshal of the New
Year's day tournament of roses
but said he preferred a vose-
covered auto rather than a white
horse to ride in the parade.
"I must ask that my transpor
tation in the procession be an
automobile and not a white
horse. My equestrian abilities, I
am afraid, have been highly
overrate d," Halsey wrote
Charles A. Strutt, presidant of
the Tournament of Roses associa
tion, who asked the admiral
whether he wanted a car or a
white horse. The grand marshal
sometimes uses a horse in previ
ous parades.
The 1946 tournament of roses,
which will have a parade for the
first time since the wai started,
will have as its theme: "Victory,
Unity and Peace."
