Assurance that a proper life- guard service will be institutedwt Cavendish and other beaches in the National Park has been re- ceived by Mr. J. Watson Mac- Nnught. MP. Summersida in a letter from tha Hon. J. A. Glenn, Minister of Mines and Resources.

A public demand that such a service be instituted‘ has been growing since the regrettable drowning tragedy at Cavendish last August when four young men lost their lives when caught in the under-tow. Lately a meeting of the Innkeepers Association of Prince Edward Island passed a resolution demanding that some action be taken.

Mr. MacNaught sent a copy of the resolution to the Minister of Mines and Resources as the ad- ministration of National Parks is under his jurisdiction.

The pertinent paragraph in the letter received by way of reply from the Minister is as follows:

"You may rest assured that the Parks administration will provide the most up-to-date equipment for rendering assistance to bathers who get into difficulty at , the Park beaches. Moreover, the aer- vices of a. qualified lifeguard will be aecured for each beach. In engaging such assistance, prefer- ence will he given to local re- turned men with suitable quali- ficationsF-S.

SYRACUSE; N. Y. Oct. 2~(AP)

-A Syracuse pediatrician, Dr. Ralph R. Scobey, who firmly be- lievas cyanide poisoning causes infantile paralysis. has puf- his finger on unripe fruit, among other things. as a source of the dread disease. Dr. sobeys beliefs are publish» cd in a series of articles in the Archives of Pediatrics. r. monthly publication of children's diseases. He claims:

1. It never has been proved that the "virus" of poliomyelltia can cause that disease ‘Ln hu- man beings.

2. It has been proved that polio can be caused by cyanide poisoning.

His idea ct how infantile par- alysis is caused departs radically from recognized polio research. He says polio is only one of a group of diseases caused by cyanide poisoning. ln this group he lists goitre and paralytic shellfish dis- ease.

"I do not think that a micro- organism exists that can be as- sociated with poiiomyelitis as it affects human beings. The so- ralied virus of poliomyelitis is doubtless a. by-product of tho cyanide poisoning. This is prob- ably a leucomaine or enzyme. which when injected into experi- mental animals can produce or accelerate the production of cyanide in the body and thus pro- ducc a disease similar to that ra- sulting in humans from cyanide." Dr. Sobey sky's cyanide is pre- sent in varying amounts in prac- tically all foods. It also is present in forage and in polluted water. Some types of bacteria can pro- duce cyanide.

There is little danger of polio, he says. unless these tyanogenic glucosides are acted upon by an enzyme contained in the plant or by an acid.

Dr. flcobey t ’ s the iodine; vitamin C and calcium in foods to be protective against cyanide. One explanation of the summar- pravaienoe of infantile paralysis, he says, is the loss or iodine and vitamin O from the box in par- spirstlon which lowers a resist-
