J.—What is proving to be a revolutionary new develop ment in the treatment of rheuma toid arthritis was disclosed in a re port just published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology. Five scientists discovered that when insulin, the drug used in dia betes, is given simultaneously with cortisone, very much smaller doses of cortisone than heretofore used may be effective. This combination was reported to produce the same degree of relief in arthritis as when cortisone is used alone in the cus tomary large doses. The new treatment reduced the quanity of the scarce new "miracle drug" used. Thus, the method en ables the doctors to cut the cost per day for treating hospitalized ar thritis patients with cortisone from $12 to as little as $3 each, the report said. Cost of Drug Cut Cortisone is the adrenal com pound reported by Drs. Hench and Kendall, of the Mayo Clinic, a lit tle more than a year ago as pro ducing spectacular improvement in rheumatoid arthritis. Its use in medicine has been handicapped, the scientists explained, by its potential dangers and the extremely high cost of treatment. The principle of using insulin to gether with cortisone was developed by Dr. Edward Henderson, direc tor of the clinical research division of Schering Corporation, Bloomfield, N. J., and by Dr, Marvin Wein berg, his associate, on the basis of animal and laboratory experiments conducted at the College of Physi cians and Surgeons of Columbia University by a third member of the Schering team. Dr. Harry Seneca. The work was done through the cooperation of Dr. George C. Schicks, Director of St. Barnabas Hospital, Newark, N. J., and Dr. John W. Gray, distinguished rheu matologist and Director cf the Arth ritis Clinic at St. Barnabas, and his associate, Dr. Evelyn Z. Merrick. Intense interest has focused on the cortisone treatment of arthritis for over a year since it was first announced at the Mayo Clinic, but physicians have been handicapped by the limited supply of the drug, its prohibitively high cost, and cer tain unfortunate side effects which develop incidental to the treatment, when large doses of cortisone are used. Many efforts have been made to produce the drug in larger quan tities and at lower cost, but prior to the St. Barnabas research noth ing had been done to make smaller quantities of the drug serve the purpose. 12 Patients Studied The research workers have stated that the new method does not mere ly cut the cost of treatment to one half or less, but also offers a means of avoiding some of the dangerous actions of the drug, very familiar to physicians who have had experi ence with cortisone. In addition, it the cost of treatment finally within reach of the majority of arthritis sufferers. Twelve patients with typical rheu matoid arthritis were hospitalized in the St. Barnabas Hospital for this study. Some were early cases and some were chronic cases of 20 years standing with far advanced arth ritis. Friction Match Following the invention of the friction match in 1827 by the Eng lish apothecary, John Walker, sev eral frightening species came on the market bearing the names "lucifer," "parlor," and "flamer." All either contained or were meant to be struck against phosphorus, poisonous and deadly. White House Reinforced With Steel Skeleton WASHINGTON—One day during the Christmas holidays, 1947, the 210-pound butler at the White House walked across the second floor study and produced an "over the waves" sensation and tinkling of the chan delier in the Blue room directly be low. That was the first Indication that old age was creeping up on the his toric structure and it was time to call In the experts. A problem presented Itself. To build a strong modern structure within the walls of the old which was first occupied by John and Abi gail Adams in 1800. There were proposals to tear down the entire building and put up a brand new, more modern home for the presi dent. But the people of the country would not stand for this and the de cision was made to spend 5.4 mil lion dollars on rebuilding within the old shell. Delicate Operation The work of tearing down the in terior is finally finished and the job of rebuilding has begun. The recon struction job should be finished sometime in October 1951. Preserving the outer wall of the White House has been a delicate op eration. To keep the stone outer wall and the roof it has been nec essary to plan a strong steel frame, with new inner walls and floors. Workmen dug 25 feet below the sur face to find a solid gravel footing and then built 120 concrete piers to support the outer wall. Steel H columns resting on sep arate footings will support the floor beams and the base of the roof trusses. Heavy anchor bars will tie the steel columns to the stone wall. When this job is done the presi dent's butler, no matter how heavy he is, will be unable to make the chandeliers tinkle merely by walk ing across the floor above. New Features Added Although there will be no changes made in the historical rooms, and they will have the same locations and appearances as before, the White House will not be put back together exactly as it was. The building will have three new fea tures—a two level basement, a grand stairway and a modernized third floor. The two story basement will pro vide additional space since the height of the White House cannot be changed. There will be offices for a doctor and a dentist, and a room for a barber. The basement also will house a heating system and air conditioning machinery, and will provide needed storage space. Most striking change will be the new grand stairway—a dignified, winding, open stairway from the second to the first floor. The old stairway was enclosed. In former days, when cabinet members and their wives marched down the stairs at formal receptions while the red coated marine band played the Blue Danube waltz, they would not be seen except at the bottom two steps. The new third floor was an attic until 1927. Now this floor will have eight guest rooms with baths, all decorated in the same style as the second floor bedrooms. Pilgrim's Progress Heads List of Most Boring Books NEW YORK—The Columbia Uni versity Press held a poll to deter« mine the 10 books readers consid ered the most boring and came up with some surprising answers. Nearly all of the first 1 ten were required reading in high school Some still are. John Bunyan's "Pil grim's Progress" took the doubtful honor of first place. These round out the first 10 in the unpopularity contest: "Melville's "Moby Dick", Mil ton's "Paradise Lost," Spencer's "Faerie Queene," Boswell's "Life of Samuel Johnson," Richardson's "Pamela", Eliot's "Silas Marner", Scott's "Ivanhoe," Cervantes' "Don Quixote" and Goethe's "Faust." Shakespeare led the field with 17 of his 37 plays gaining mention at least once. However, only one, "As You Like It," ranked as high as 41st place. The balloting cited works ranging from the Old Testament to Dr. Al fred C. Kinsey's "Sexual Behavior in the Human Male" as at once classic and tedious. Russians Charge Americans Preparing Bacterial War LONDON—The Soviet Union, just recovering from the famous potato bug scare, has charged that "Amer ican militarists are actively pre paring bacterial war." The United States was accused early this year of dropping potato bugs on East Germany in an effort to destroy the potato crop. Now the Moscow radio charges: "At the beginning of 1946 eighteen Japanese specialists were sent to the United States—bacteriologists who handed over to their new mast er« all their material on the pro duc'd«! of the bacterial weapon. The broadcast said secret labora tories in Maryland and Utah wer« working on the weapon. Paper It has been said that paper begin« where many things end—In rag*.
