New Technique Advances Surgery for the Aged Surgery for the aged--increasing in importance today--should not be considered with feftr or alarm by patient and family, urges Louis Carp, M. 9., in Ike Stealth Magazine. Dr. Carpt a New York City surgeon, potato out that the increasing span of human life is offering a greater challenge to doctors. Based on the latest census figures, there was an iifarease of 39 per cent of persons over 69 years of age between 1930 and 1940. In another 15 years, life expectancy should reach 75 years. Consequently, the health, social, economic and political significance of the increase of life span must be emphasized. "Old age does not necessarily prevent surgical procedures," Dr. Carp remarks, "which may save or pro* long life, produce continued physical comfort and the relief of pain, and add economic, functional and social usefulness. Today thefe are still many Instances of a defeatist attitude toward surgery tor the aged on the part of both patient and family alike. These outdated attitudes should be abandoned in favor of a more progressive outlook, the result of marvelous advances ,in medicine end surgery in the 4ast quarter century. It should be our aim to 'add life to years and .years t o l i f e . ' - • A Christmas party for the Lady,Good luck to you, folks.

Cranium S^ute Although the sources, of the uranium ore needed to make the atomic bombs are generally considered a secret, it is public knowledge that 90 per cent of that ore comes from Central Africa, namely, from the Belgian Congo, the largest deposits being at Chinkolobwe, in the rich mining area of Katanga. Before the war, the ore was shipped to Belgium for the extraction of radium of which some 60 grams were produced per annum. Since the invasion of Belgium, the ore has been shipped to North America for treatment mainly in Canada, which accounts for the statement that most of the uranium is derivefcl from that dominion. Of that Congo ore, 1,071 tons valued at $2,000,000 were sent in 1940 to the United States.

Gas gangrene is a local wound infection caused by bacteria which attack only injured tissue*, form spores and secrete powerful toxins. The authors state that "the disease develops to soon after wounding and runs so swift a course that delays and difficulties of treatment in the field are not the principal reason for its high incidence and mortality." The army doctors emphasize that early surgical removal of the damaged tissue "is 11M one single measure of vital importance in the prevention as well as the treatment of gas gangrene." Surgery alon£ however, is not completely effective la treating the infection. Penicillin in large doses Jtas Wped to reduce both mortality and extent of the disease.
