Lutherans in the U.S. refused to believe that Drs. Lehner, Hoeger and their like were aiding the Japs. Perhaps some of the mission employes had been persuaded or compelled to guide the invaders. Perhaps Garns and Rabbe had sneaked back to the station, or had never gone to Germany at all. As for tales of Nazi trinkets in the mission, good Lutherans were puzzled or incredulous. It was not God's way, and it was not the Lutheran...
Another probability not mentioned by Dr. Cloward was discussed thoroughly last month by Surgeons Walter Freeman and James Winston Watts of Washington, D.C. in a book on the frontal lobes (Psychosurgery; C. C. Thomas; $6). To enliven victims of deep depression and remove some of their inhibitions, Drs. Freeman and Watts cut through some fibers of the frontal lobes. They have returned a good proportion of their patients to their jobs. Like these patients wounded men who lose part of their frontal lobes (most civilized part of the brain, just behind the forehead) may lose self-restraint and manners, become...
Hydrosulphosol, an -SH (sulfydryl) solution,* reported Dr. Mellon in Industrial Medicine last fortnight, was tried on 150 burn cases, moderate and severe, by Drs. Archie Edward Cruthirds of Phoenix, Ariz, and Wilmot Frank Pierce of Los Angeles. The burns were caused by steam, hot metal, hot oil, lime, gasoline. Patients were sprayed with mixtures of Hydrosulphosol and water every 20 or 30 minutes until a tough "eschar," or "scab" was built up. The eschar is flexible, leaves room for motion, reduces scars to a minimum. Hydrosulphosol, said Dr. Mellon, not only relieves pain, but prevents infection, great hazard in burn...
...cheaper and may be given by mouth. Dr. Silbert predicted that dicoumarin will soon be used not only as a cure for thrombi, but as a routine preventive in all major operations and confinements. At present it is used in the Mayo Clinic, the University of Wisconsin, and by Drs. Irving Sherwood Wright and Andrew Gabriel Prandoni of Columbia, who made a technical report on it last fortnight...
...made to ovulate a second time when injected with an egg-ripening hormone produced in the anterior pituitary gland near the base of the brain. Ewes thus treated have already given birth twice yearly at the School of Agriculture at Cambridge, England. The egg-ripening hormone was discovered by Drs. Philip E. Smith and Earl T. Engle of Columbia. It was impossible to obtain it in useful quantities until it was discovered abundantly in the blood of mares in their 40th to 90th days of pregnancy...
