Scientist Would Lock
Up Sick Americans
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York (U.R) To achieve
an ultimate good, a noted scient
ist is advocating "locking up"
a certain number of sick Amer
icans. The ultimate good is making
tuberculosis an extinct disease.
The sick persons are those who
know they have TB but won't
submit to treatment and won't
take themselves out" of circula
tion. "Personal liberty is a precious
heritage, but liberty should be
denied those who knowingly
expose others," said Dr. H.Cor
win Hinshaw, clinical professor
of medicine, Standford Univer
sity School of Medicine.
Would Have Curled Hair
He was answering the ques
tion, "Can we wipe out TB?"
His answer was, yes, if . . . Such
an answer to such a question,
if he had been given 10 years
ago, would have curled the hair
of anyone who knew anything
about TB.
His principal "if" was prevent
ing well people from getting the
disease. That involves "case
finding" finding the people
who have TB but don't know
it. It also- involves dealing with
the people who know they have
Gasoline Dealers
Jo Meet Here
Kecently elected officers of
the" Oregon Gasoline Dealers as
ociatiori will meet here Wednes
day afternoon to consider mov
ing the state office from Salem
to Medford temporarily.
The move is being considered
because most officers and direct
ors elected recently are from
southern Oregon.
Steve Harriman, Dillard, was
elected president, Paul Coleman,
Klamath Falls, vice president,
and Victor Milnes, Medford, secretary-treasurer.
Directors are
Ben Hallyburton of Portland,
RajPBorger of Eugene and Pete
Whitney of -Eugene. s
PADLOCKED CARS
Kimball, Neb. (U.R) The
city council recently authorized
a plan whereby the automobiles
of persons who refuse to pay
parking fines will be shackled
to the curb. Police hold the keys
to padlocks on the chains and
violators have to pay S2 to have
their cars released , in addition
to the fine for overparking.
TB but won't do anything about
it. Both kinds spread TB among
well people.
Dr. Hinshaw, who is a noted
authority on TB and a former
president of the American Tru
deau Society, was himself great
ly impressed by what has hap
pened to TB in the last five to
ten years. Formerly it was . "es
sentially uncurable"; in most
cases the future was bleak if not
hopeless.
Treatable Disease
"Tuberculosis is now, as never
before, a treatable disease a
curable disease," he said. "Mod
ern treatment can relieve tuber
culosis symptoms, promptly,
bring the disease to arrest, and
can usually prevent or at least
minimize the risk of recur
rence. This has not been sub
jected to the full test of time
but is based on a firm founda
tion of fact."
Navy Releases
Balloons in Japan
' Tokyo (U.R) The United
States Navy released the first of
20 huge weather balloons in Ja
pan this morning, aiming them
toward this country on the same
path that Japanese incendiary
balloons traveled during World
War Two.
Today's balloons were direct
ed to the level of the jet stream,
which is expected to waft them
all the way to our east coast
within a week. When they lose
their own floating power, para
chutes will open automatically
and gently lower, the balloons to
the ground.
On their trip, the balloons
will pick up valuable weather
information by means of radio
transmitters. All this informa
tion will be passed along to
weather organizations through
out the world. And it should pro
vide some new data on upper
atmospheric conditions.
The Japanese had some suc
cess with their balloon project
during the -war. They used the
jet stream to send balloons into
our Pacific northwest to touch
off forest fires.
Of course the Navy's project
is strictly a peaceful one. But
some people are likely to find
it suspicious.
As Lt. Com. M. Lewis of the 1
Bureau of Aeronautics said "I
expect there will be reports of
flying saucers over the United
States in a few days."
TRAVELER-HUNTER TO
PREMIERE JUNGLE FILM
.John Newman, noted Spokane,
Washington traveler and lectur
er on world missions is pictured
with the 500 pound Royal Bengal
Tiger he bagged recently in the
Indo-China jungles. He will dis
play the eleven foot trophy in Cen- -tral
Point at the area Premiere
of his new CinemaScope film,
"Trail's End." The motion picture
was photographed in "the won
derland of Asia" by Vision, Inc.,
of which he is vice-president. New
man has engaged in overseas mis
sions on five continents.
The film story traces the activ
ities of the pioneer-spirited missionary who one day finds himself sum
moned to a village to kill off marauding tigers terrorizing the natives
and the next day traveling by elephant back, sampan or afoot into for
bidding jungles where aboriginal blood-hunters conceal poison-tiDped
lances along the trails in search of human blood for their religious
sacrifices. The dramatic-documentary introduces tribal peoples who
lead a tight rope existence in an interior mountainous domain over-'un
with leopards, tigers and other predatory wild life.
As the brilliant jungle scenery takes hold of the imagination, height
ened by authentic, synchronous sound, one begins to lose himself with
the little band of Christian missionaries as they probe deeper and
deeper into the jungle. At its recent World Premiere the film played
before 5000 persons in the Spokane Coliseum.
There is no admission charge. A free-will offering will be received.
