NEW APPRBABH ill BAFFLING HEART AliMENT

Dr. Jane Sands Robb Presents Method 0f Dealing With Cor. onary Thrombosis.

(BY Howard W. Blskeslee, Associ- ated Press science Editor)

DEIIROFI‘. April 12-1; new ap- proach to the unsolved problem of coronary thrombosis, the heart trouble that threatens those who work under high premure, was de- scribed by scientists today.

The report was made to the Fed- efii-lm 0f American Biaciatiea for Experimental Biology by Jme Bands Robb, M. 13., of Syracuse University ccllwe or Medicine. Wailers I‘ rnbosls is‘ a. failure u! the blood supply to one or more or the la muscles which operate the hlllmbn heart. Dr. Echo's work is a method of ldentinylng some cf the specinc heart muscles which go wrong.

It is an advance on a technique which physicians have been using for 30 years in analysis of the meaning of motions of the electric tracing pencil in eiectrocardlgrams of the heart. The machine which does this was invented by Einthoven about 1900.

These motions are noticeably dif- ferent in coronary thrombosis. Dr. Robb ‘has been able to interpret these designs on the heart chart in terms of individual heart muscles. Her work shows that each muscle when injured. as in coronary thrombosis. makes a differeng pat- tern on the electrocardigrazn.

She has created coronary throm- bosis in healthy animals by tying off a small artery supplying a heart muscle.

In the natural. human disease. na- ture does the same thing by usinu a little blood clot in the artery.

In animals the artificial trouble creates patterns on the electrocar- digrnm like those over which medi- m] men have puzzled for 3o wars. Each muscle makes its own contri- butlon to the pattern and changes this distinctive mark as a danger signal when the thrombosis comes. The result is a further solution of the riddle of coronarv thrombosis in animals‘ h-nrts and evidence that the solution wi" work equally well on lwmen heart-s.

Crop Losses in South Western U n i t ed States Counted at $30,000,000.

Grief-stricken Parents Claim Bodies of Vic- t i m s —.— Investiga- tion Into Accident Opened.

(-A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

WIILLAMBPORT, Md.. April l2.- Bilent, grief-stricken Williamsport parents today received the broken

bodies of l4 children who died in the shambles of a. bus on a Balti- more and Ohio railroad grade cros- sing at Rockville, Md.

Mass funeral services have been suggested by school authorities. It appeared unlikely however, that this course would be followed for more than six or seven of the victims as some parcnts expressed a desire for individual services.

At Rockville, a live-sided invest- igation was started in an attempt to sift out circumstances of last night's crash—Maryland‘s most tra- gic in years. Percy Line, driver of the shiny, new bus which was carry- ing the children home from a chem- istry show at the University of Maryland, was held on a charge of manslaughter. _

TWO REMAIN IN HOSPITAL

Only two of the 15 injured persons were still in hospitals. The other: had come back home-to be greeted by parents and relatives who had thought them dead. For, in the confusion of the disaster, u. list of survivors was received as the list of the dead. Only the arrival of those who escaped death definitely clear- ed up the error.

An inquest was‘ scheduled for; Tuesday at Rockville. Line and Miss Louise Funk, the teacher who cab- ried her chemistry class on the ill- faled trip, said they heard no warn- ing signals, saw no warning liglis at the crossing. Their first know- ledge of the train came, they said, when its headlight pierced the foggy blackness of last night, shone direct- ly into the windows of the bus. There was no watchman on duty at the crossing. His time of duty has expired an hour and a half before the crash.

EXHAUSTIVE STUDY

The bulky blue book which con- tains the result of the commission's deliberations over a period of near- ly l4 months is the mOst import- ant and most exhaustive study on economic and social problems ever manic by an official body in Canada. It surpasses in popular interest any previous similar work and its only near rivals in recent years are the reports of the Royal Ccmmtssions on railways and banking.

The former rasulted in reorgan- isation of Canadian National Rail- ways and the scheme of co-opera- tivn operations between Canadian National and Canadian Pacific sys- tems, the latter in revision of bank- ing law; and creation of a central bank. Similarly the price spreads report is expected to receive ful- fillment in law at the present ses- sion qf parliament.

Including the minority report oi.’ E. J. Young. Liberal member for Weybum. the reservations of other Liberal members who signed the majority report and the appendices, the document runs to 499 pages and approximately 350,000 words.

More complete organization of Canadian industrial and business life is contemplated in the report. The proposed Federal trade and in- dustry commission would he charged with strict administration

‘The crossing is protected by standard signals and by warning- bells which. we definitely know, were operating at the time cf the accident. There are no buildings close to the crossing which would obstruct the vision of the bus driver and the crossing is well lighted. Three outside witnesses have stated that the engine whistle was blown approaching the crossing."

Six of the 33 members of the sen- ior class died in the crash. the other eight being members of the junior class.

It would be its duty to sanction self-governing agrraments within an industry and to probe and prosecute unfair trade practices with wide discretion as to a definition of that term.

LABOR. AND WAGES

In the field of labor and wages reduction of hours cf work with a uniform 44-hour week for all Can- ada is recommended. either by fed- eral cr uniform provincial legisla- tion.
