Children born after a course of decompression during pregnancy appear to develop faster, both physically and mentally. Heyns is understandably tentative about such results.

In other situations "life" can be maintained only by means of artificial respiration and electrical stimulation of the heart beat, or in temporarily by-passing the heart, or, in conjunction with these things, reducing with cold the body's oxygen requirement...

Büssing will cut its labor force by 2,000, and has been ordered...
