Shortly after Dewey’s victory in

capture Guam on the way. Spanish
forces on Guam surrendered without

Harry Camp, timber sales and

due to the fact that some mills contract their logs and fewer crew mem‘bers are employed than others, which
have both logging and mill crews.

Treatmene of Poliomyelitis
Improved
SAN FRANCISCO, March 12—
Best treatment of most early polioMyelitis cases consists of a combination of the Kenny method and administration of the drug prostigmine.
So says Dr. Henry Brainerd, clinical
instructor in medicine and pediatrics
in the Medical Schdol on the San
Francisco campus of the University
of California, who points out that
both symptoms and course of the
disease in poliomyelitis. are exceedingly varied so that much controverey has arisen @ncernineg it.
Prostigmine, which stimulates the
para-sympathetic nervous system,
wag first used to treat poliomyelitis
by Drs. Herman Kabot and Milard
Knapp-of Minnesota. Experiments at
the University of California Hospital
have verified’ the belief that in most
cases of early polio this drug relaxes
the muscle spasms and aids
the recovery.
Physicians agree that the cause of
polio is a filterable virus, an organism smaller than the bacteria. This
virus may occur in sewage, probably in contaminated milk, food, and
water,-and possibly may be carried
by the housefly. Dr. Brainerd reports
that it has been isolated from the
nasal secretions. and stools of pathence
ients and from excretions of appar!
