Management is an ogre and labor can do no wrong, In his mind everything seems to be In the state It was in 20 years ago, If police enter a strike, it is a plot by management, If there is serious unemploy- ment this winter, it will po ably in his mind be part of a grand strategy by management, Such blind thinking, of course, can lead to wild statements, and at the committee it already has, One of them one day when it was suggested that trade unions should be brought within legisla. tion was the charge "Why aren't the medical association, and the bar society, brought within legis. lation? They are, of course, as mem- bers of the committee quickly pointed out, Just a few minutes later he made another charge which was equally wiong. By themselves these slips are minor, of course, but in total they may tend to discredit Mr, MacDonald, There are already signs that some sections of labor arent too anxious about having him as the self-appointed champion of its course Drugs And Treatments Mark New Discoveries HERMAN N., BUNDESEN, MD Two new drugs for treating rheumatold arthritis and gout, a steroid for relleving itching and burning eyes, and a method of improving eyesight by use of electric current are the medical advances I'd like to discuss today in our monthly review of what's new in medicine The arthritis drugs are chloro: quine and coleemide, Chloroquine is reported to he good for long-term and safe con trol of certain cases of crippling rheumatoid arthritis, NO IMMED IATE EVIDENCE While it gives no immediate evidence of any anti-inflamma. tory effect on joint swelling and pain, it appears to inactivate the disease process In the body as a whole Colcemide is a modern, stream. lined version of the 3487.year- old drug, colchicine, Both drigs are extracted from a particular variety of European and Aslatie crocus that blooms in the autumn, HIGHLY EFFECTIVE Coleemide is reported to be highly effective in suppressing painful and distressing arthiritie symptoms that accompany acute gouty attacks, The new eye preparation Is Metreton Opthalmie Suspension, asterold-antihistimine, which can be used for a wide variety of re sistant allergic eye conditions, Gaillard It is reported to be especially helpful when the eyes are both. ered with reactions from hay fever or asthma, Investigators say It gives prompt relief from itehing, tearing and burning Application of mild electric eur. rent to the temples is sald by two Maryland doctors to have improved vision greatly in 10 per sons with varying degrees of visual loss In the cases studied the im. paired vision apparently was due to vascular problems, The inves- itigators reported the patients improved with the treatment "probably because of improved nutrition to the visual apparatus as a consequence of improved elreulation," It in nice for the public to know about the new advances in medi eine, but it 1s also equally impor. tant to understand that medi eines should always be taken under the advice of the doctor, QUESTION AND ANSWER T.
