Two Synthetic
Hormones Relieve
Fever Sufferers
Hartford, Conn., May 24 U.R
Administration of two synthetic
hormones has brought dramatic
results in the treatment of rheu
matic fever and arthritis. Dr.
Timothy F. Brewer, St. Francis
hospital cardiologist, reported to
day. He told the New England Pe
diatric Society of 12 years re
search with the hormone sub
stances, known as progesterone
and estradiol.
"Startling" was the ws,y Brew
er described the condition of pa
tients after receiving injections
of the hormones. He told of a 10-year-old
Hartford girl, critically
ill with rheumatic fever, who
asked to leave her bed 21 hours
after receiving the hormone
treatment. And he told a 51-year-old
Massachusetts woman,
severely crippled with arthritis
and unable even to lift a cup of
coffee, who drank her coffee with
ease three hours following treat
ment. A day later she said she
felt like "going to a dance."
Brewer started his research
after a casual remark by a young
woman who said she "used to
have inflammatory rheumatism
until she became pregnant. He
set out to obtain some substance
that would produce a "hormonial
state simulating pregnancy."

You may not know it, but a tire one-third

A Nichols' Worth of
Comment On
By HARMAN
United Pnu
Washington, May 24 (U.R)
Before many weeks, there will
be more can openers than there
are white ioiks
in the thriving
little town of
Usumbura in
the Belgian
Congo.
It's like this.
Not long ago
United Press
cabled a piece
to the dark
continent about
a new Ameri
can invention
a can opener
that not only
opens cans but
attached which
Harman Nichols
has a magnet
holds onto the
top so it won't
get into the pea juice.
The story told all about man's
struggles across the years to per
fect something that would open
a can the way a can should be
opened. It mentioned that inven
tors by the hundreds have flood
ed the U. S. patent office in an
effort legally to get into the can-
opening business.
First can opener on record
was developed in 1858 by one
Ezra J. Warner. The housewife
operated the thing by holding it
upright over the can with one
hand and whacking it with the
palm of the other until either
the can or the hand was punc
tured. But getting back to the origi
nal theme of this sermon.
Super-Duper Number
The magnetic opener we de
scribed was a super-dupcr num
ber patented by the Rival Manu
facturing company of Kansas
City, Mo. It was called a can-o-
mat. It opened the can and, as
we said, caught the top on a
magnet at the same time. Not
only that, it pioneered in easier
cleaning of openers. All the lit
tle woman has to do is to flick
her finger to release a small bar,
which holds the cutter in place.
From there on, it's easy to rinse
the cutter and get the sardine
grease off it.
Well, the good ladies of Usum
bura took a fancy to the story
and apparently got together, and
mailed an order.
That posed a problem for the
Rival people.
No money came with the order
mileage and greater safety from

and it'll have to go collect. The
openers sell in this country from
$4.98 to $7.95. (That information
is part of the story and not a
free ad.)
Openers Come High
But in order to deliver the
goods, the company is going to
have to get about $15 to S22
apiece for the things, including
shipping charges.
Anyhow, the things are on the
way.
And they'll get to the Congo
like this:
First they will travel aboard a
steamer from New York to a
port on the east coast of Tan
ganyika. Then they go by slow train
across that country to a lake on
its western border where the
railroad runs into a dead end.
From there they go a couple of
hundred miles up the lake to
their destination.
The shipping companies have
no idea how long all this will
take and hope that the women
of Nsumbura have some other
way to open their canned stuff
in the meantime.
As for the Rival outfit. They
expect that this headache if
business can call a sale a head
ache will be the last one from
that direction in at least 10
years.
The town ordered 21 B openers.
. According to the last official
census Usumbura has far less
than 216 i.vhite folks.
