The idea of the plan is founded on coâ€"Ooperâ€" ative methods between the employees and the doctors. The employee has the choice of any doctor who has joined the medical branch of the association, and a large percentage of the doctors of the camp have done so. $ and his advisors At present both committees (the exeâ€" cutive of the employees and the exeâ€" cutive of the doctors) are busy working out the complete details so that the plan will work smoothly from the start, The medical executive office of the association will open in the Dr. McInâ€" nis block next Monday.

The discovery has the added advantage of being in the nature of a sure preventaâ€" tive as well as a means of treatment. A report on the discovery was preâ€" sented at a special session of the Acaâ€" deimy of Medicine held at Toronto on Tuesday. The report was presented by J. J. Denny, M.Sc., metallurgical engiâ€" neer and Dr. W. Douglas R¢bson, chief surgeon of the McIntyre Mine, and Dr. Dudley Irwin, of the Dept. of Medical Research, University of Toronto, under the direction of Sir Frederick Banting. Silicosis has been an anxious proolem for all interested in mines. The disease incapacitates a worker, unusually leads to tuberculosis, and eventually to death. The disease has cost millions to govetnâ€" ments and mines but this cost would be gladly sacrificed for effective results, Up to the present discovery, however there has been no effective treatment and no sure means of prevention, _ A statement issued in connection with the discovery through research at the Mz_ Intyre says: "The new method promises prevenâ€" tion by pathological means. Methods used up to the present have been mechâ€" anical. The theory was held, the report said, that the fine edges of the minute particles of dust cut and sacrificed the lungs.=~~=This theory was discarded in favour of chemical, organic action. It is now held that the dust dissolves in the lung, resulting in the chemical degenerâ€" ation of the organ. Upon this belief the three research workers experimented on rabbits, placed in a box containing dust particles of quartz and metallic alumiâ€" num. Pathological examination of the animals revealed the metallic aluminum inhaled with the other dust had saved the lungs from injury by the quartz Rabbits placed in a box containing only quartz ‘dust showed evidence of the diâ€" sease. It is believed the metallic aluâ€" minum Gdelays the solubillity of the quartz dust, preventing nodules forming on the lungs." very creditable review.
