Minnesota Reduces
Bulbar Polio Deaths
By New Techniques
fey th# Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 27.—Uni
versity of Minnesota doctors report
a noteworthy reduction in deaths
has been achieved in the Minnesota
infantile paralysis epidemic through
use of new techniques in treating
bulbar poliomyelitis, the so-called
killer type.
Rather than lay claim to any
sensational discoveries, the doctors
point instead to their application of
known scientific facts and their
adaptation of certain mechanical
equipment, much of which was de
veloped by the Army Air Forces for
wartime use.
"We have applied all the kftown
information about respiratory physi
iology to the treatment,” Dr. Mau
rice B. Visscher, professor of physi
ology, told newsmen visiting the
university hospitals’ polio wards to
day. “Since the application of new
techniques in treating bulbar polio
we have had a significant reduction
in the mortality rate. We have
found that if we can keep bulbar
patients breathing five to seven days
they have a good chance of sur
viving.”
Of the 1.654 Minnesotan's stricken
thus far in the epidemic, 12 to
15 per cent were afflicted by bulbar
polio. The university hospitals have
given the new treatment to 46
bulbar cases, using it for the first
time a month ago.
Bulbar polio attacks brain cells
controling the respiratory system.
Having determined that in most
cases not all of the cells are de
stroyed and that they have recup
erative powers, the doctors sought
means of keeping the patients
breathing.
The iron lung took care of those
whose chest muscles were paralyzed.
But the big problem was the case
in which the patient's larnyx was
closed. He could not breathe.
Many of these victims died of
suffocation.
So the doctors resorted to pres
sure breathing equipment developed
at Wright Field by the air forces, i
After an incision is made into the
patient's neck, a tube is inserted
into the trachea below the larynx.
The machine then feeds a combina
tion of oxygen and helium into the
patient's lungs.
The treatment also employs the
oximeter—another air forces de
velopment. This scale measures the
oxygen tension in the patient, chart
ing it on graph paper. Among
Dther things, it enables the doctor
to determine the length of periods
a patient may be taken from the
respirator and when he can be
removed permanently. This knowl
edge is necessary in guarding against
keeping him in the lung overlong
to the point where respiratory or
gans deteriorate.

West Point Hits Back
In McWilliams Case
B> th« Associated Press
WEST POINT, Aug. 27.—Maj.
Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, superin
tendent of the United States Mili
tary Academy, issued a statement
today denying a charge made last
week by Coach Allyn McKeen of Mis
sissippi State College that Tom
'Shorty” McWilliams, halfback on
Army’s football eleven, had not been
permitted to resign from the j
academy.
Gen. Taylor said the charge was
■incorrect," and countered with the
assertion that McWilliams "has re
ceived a particularly lucrative finan
cial offer from a certain quarter,
iesigned to induce him to leave West
Point and play football elsewhere.”
He did not identify the quarter from
which the alleged offer had come.
Gen. Taylor said that McWilliams,
who played one season at Mississippi
State before entering West Point,
had written out his resignation from
;he Academy early in August, but
withdrew it voluntarily before It
could be forwarded to the com
mandant of cadets.
The superintendent said that Me- 1
Williams, "having no particular
financial means, has been faced with
a very difficult decision.”
“Cadets from West Point with
reputations as football players have
had their summer furloughs marred
by the visitations and solicitations!
of coaches and representatives of:
colleges, urging them to transfer in
order to play football.
“It appears to us at West Point
that the parting way is near between
those schools who become openly
semiprofessional in sport, particu-!
larly in football, and those who will I
continue to play the game primarily !
for the contribution it makes to
American manhood.”

he has no other idea than that of
making a campaign for re-election

'Only Fooling/
Judge Says of
Shotgun Advice
By th* Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Aug. 27.—
Plagued with letters and telephone;
calls from all over the Nation. Judge j
Robert W. B. Terrel says he was;
only fooling when he recommended
that a San Angelo Army colonel j
“take a 12-gauge shotgun" and \
"finish off his wife's suitor, Texas I
style.”
One letter the judge received from
Los Angeles stated:
"Let me ask, are you a judge or a,
hoodlum? Murfier is murder, Texas
or any other hillbilly State to the
contrary notwithstanding."
Other letters accused him of ad
vocating premeditated murder, Judge
Terrell said.
In answer to them all, Judge Ter
rell read the following statement in!
his courtroom yesterday:
"I made a humorous statement |
from the bench last week about a
12-gauge shotgun and some people!
are now saying that Judge Terrell;
is advocating premeditated murder
from the bench.
"I didn’t know any one in the;
country had such low intelligence.”! j
2 Burning Autos Found
In Prince Georges
Reports that two automobiles had '
been set afire in nearby Maryland
sent District Automobile Squad
detectives hurrying Into Prince
Georges County early today in a
fruitless search for auto thieves
who have been stripping and burn
ing stolen cars in this area recently.
Both .cars, one stolen and one j
borrowed, bore District license plates I
and were burned severely. Detec- j
tives said, however, that both fires
apparently were accidental and did
not appear to be the work of the
ring of vandals which has been
operating in the District and South
ern Maryland all summer.
The fires were spotted by county 1
residents by the glow of flames '
against the sky. The first car, a
taxicab owned by Richard Fuqua, p
1414 V street N.W., was stolen some
time after 11 o’clock last night from
in front of his home and caught
fire on River road near Tuxedo, Md.
Police deduced that the thieves
short-circuited wires to start the
car and the wires became ignited
while the thieves were driving.
The second car caught fire at
Greenbelt, Md., when its borrowers
backed it onto a concrete culvert
and punctured the gasoline tank.
Some one struck a match to examine
the damage, dropped the match
in the spilled gasoline and the au
tomobile caught fire, police said.
The owner Is Edwin Huber, 49 H
street N.E.
Coffee Bank Records
Received by Probers
By the Associated Press
A Senate War Investigating Com
mittee aid said today that Repre
sentative Coffee, Democrat, of
Washington has furnished the com
mittee the records of his account in
the Puget Sound National Bank of
Tacoma.
The committee asked for the rec
ords in the course of its investiga
tion of Mr. Coffee’s receipt from
Eivind Anderson, a Tacoma war
contractor, of $2,500 which Mr. Cof
fee said was a campaign contribu
tion. The House member said Mr.
Anderson gave the money to his
former secretary, Paul A. Olson, but
acknowledged he had failed to list
it in either his income tax returns
or election contribution reports.
James P. McGranery, assistant to
the Attorney General, testified to
the committee that the statute of
limitations barred any prosecutions
in connection with the transaction.
The committee aid, Prances D.
Flanagan, said it was doubtful that
the committee would take any fur
ther action in the matter. He said
he believed a subpoena had been
issued to the bank to produce the
records, but observed that in view
of their receipt from Mr. Coffee
there would be no point in pressing
the bank for the papers. Mr. Flan
agan said the records were received
about a week ago.

A
Court at Nuernberg
Intends to Finish
Trial by Saturday
ly th* Anociot.d Pmi
NUERNBERG, Aug. 27.—Lord
Justice Sir Geoffrey Lawrence an
nounced today the International
Military Tribunal's intention of con
cluding by this weekend the nine
month-old trial of 22 German war
leaders and seven Nazi organiza
tions accused of crimes against
humanity.
The president of the tribunal
made the announcement after de
fense counsel for the German high
command had requested permission
to bring another witness from the;
Dachau war prison camp in an
effort to refute testimony given!
yesterday by Maj. Gen. Walter!
Schreiber, a German staff officer!
who said the Germans were plan
ning bacteriological warfare.
The prosecution immediately
asked the court to defer its decision
on the request in order that prosecu
tion attorneys might have time to
read a letter reported written by
the prospective witness—A Col. |
Boerger.
Defense Stalls for Time.
“That seems a convenient course!
and particularly in view of the fact |
that the tribunal expects to finish
hearing the entire case this week,
certainly by Saturday evening," Jus
tice Lawrence said.
The closing phases of the trial—
which started November 20. 1945—
have been marked by apparent de
fense efforts to stall for time, re
flected in requests for permission
to question new witnesses and sub
mit affidavits some of which, in
the words of the tribunal, "have
little or no bearing on the case."
Still on schedule for the tribunal
are defense summations for the high
command and general staff, which
are expected to be completed today,
and for the Reich cabinet and S. A.
(Brown Shirts). The latter two
should be completed by tomorrow,
as the tribunal has allowed only a
half day for each defense sum
mation.
Defendants to Make Statements.
These are to be followed by prose
cution summations of the United
States, Great Britain, Russia and
France. The final drama before the
tribunal retires to discuss the ver
dict will be the closing statement
by each of the 21 defendants in
the box. These statements are to
be limited to "few minutes” and
will be given from the dock and
not from the witness stand.
If no new witnesses are called
and there are no further closed ses
sions of court, it appears likely
the final statements should be made
sometime Saturday afternoon.
Dr. Hans Gawlik, completing the
summation for the secret police,
told the tribunal this morning that
the S. D. was often confused with
other organizations such as S. A.
and S. S. and that the organiza
tion knew nothing of plans for
aggressive war. Counsel also de
clared the S. D. had no part in
groups charged with atrocities in
i occupied countries.
