PHILADELPHIA. — The wonder drug, streptomycin, has become "the first real relief the medical pro fession ever has had for the treat ment of tuberculosis," but the drug does not cure the disease, Dr. John B. Barnwell of the U. S. Veterans' administration stated before a meet ing of specialists. Dr, Barnwell, head of the tuber culosis branch of the Veterans' ad ministration, said that streptomy antibiotic drug, has greatly benefited the sufferers of tubercu losis in government hospitals, be cause it arrests annoying symptoms of the disease, and definitely sup presses the tuberculosis germ. The doctor was one of several hundred specialists attending the meeting of the Eastern Section of American Trudeau society. Used in 1,750 Cases. He said streptomycin's effective discovered in the treat cm, an ness was ment of 1,750 cases of tuberculosis in veterans' hospitals, and that of this highly seletted group, 90 per cent showed marked improvement through use of the drug. The improvement in this group was manifested by a lowering of temperature, gain in weight, in creased appetite and decreased cough. ceased when the drug was stopped, Dr. Barnwell pointed out. Dr. Arthur M. Walker, also of Veterans' administration, told the meeting of the year-long intensive study the administration has been making in use of streptomycin in tuberculosis. Dr. H. C. Hinshaw of the Mayo clinic, Rochester, Minn., warned the doctors against indiscriminate use of streptomycin. He said there was definite evidence that the drug the best adjunct medicine has against tuberculosis, but that it should be administered only by a specialist in the disease. "Indiscriminate use of penicillin —another antibiotic agent—has be come almost a tradition," Dr. Hin shaw said, "and it has set a bad precedent for streptomycin. Many of us doctors are alarmed at the way some general practitioners are using the drug in treatment of this disease. "I have heard where patients are being treated in their home for the disease by doctors who are not ex perienced in tuberculosis. They are doing so under the false premise that streptomycin simplifies treat ment of the disease. This is exactly the opposite, as use of the drug com plicates treatment, and it is even more important that tuberculosis be treated by a specialist." gains, however, These was A j ■ in WASHINGTON . . .

Lewis was champ ing at the bit and looking like he might call a strike of his soft coal miners this spring, coal producers were busy thinking up possible rea sons f or bim to do so. .. , , .. . .One theory advanced was that rivalry between Lewis and Philip Murray, president of United Steel workers (CIO), to win pensions for their members is partly to blame for Lewis' veiled strike threat. Murray has been negotiating for an insurance and pension plan with y. S. Steel since last April and ap pears to be making progress. Lewis, s0 story goes, may be vying ^ with in the to secure pensions for workers in the big mass industries. He has demanded $ 100 -a-month pensions for miners aged 60, with the pensions to be paid from the bituminous welfare and retirement fund. Operators, however, have rejected this demand, making it clear that they will not consent to any dis bursements from the fund until Lewis agrees to set up the fund in accordance jwith the Taft-Hartley law. FREEZES: Honor System j In Great Britain the Labor gov ernment was trying to put voluntary 1 self-sacrifice by the people on a paying basis. Appearing before parliament, Prime Minister Clement Attlee pro claimed his government's opposi- J tion to any general increase of per- j sonal incomes — wages, salaries, j profits or rents. He proposed, in effect, that the British people put themselves on the honor system in j sacrificing possible increased earn ings. Purpose of this refined and patri- | otic masochism would be to combat : inflation and rebuild the British j economy. The people, Attlee said, 1 must master the crisis instead of [ waiting to be overwhelmed by it. Actually, the government was not ( freezing wages, although newspa- ; pers decried Attlee's words as im- [ plying such action. But the prime minister only used the word per suasion, not compulsion. j It has been estimated that wages in Britain have risen about 25 per j cent higher than prices since 1939, and what Attlee said in effect was j that if workers want to keep the gains they have won since before j the war they must work harder and ; not seek beyond their power to achieve.
