B—10 # ICKES APPROVES OIL POLICY BOARD Orders Shell Company to Recognize Five Unions for California. By the Assoctated Press. Approving a decision of the Petro-| leum Labor Policy Board, Secretary Ickes today ordered the Shell Oil Co. to recognize five unions as collective bargaining agents for all employes in | California. The board, with Ickes' approval, overruled the contention of previous employe representatives that resultsi of an employe election should be de- termined by departments. Belief of Board. “It is the belief of the board” the | decision said, “that section 7, article 2 of the petroleum code crystallizes a legislative intent to give employes eco- nomic strength in their relationship with their employers. “It is obvious that this strength is only effective to the extent that it | Tepresents the opinion or desire of | many as against the opinion or de- sire of an individual or few. “To the extent, therefore, that facts and circumstances in each case so| justify, it is the duty of the beard to | certify as collective bargaining | agencies the largest possible gmups‘i of employes, numerically speaking, who consider themselves and who can be considered, by present and past objective facts and circumstances, homogeneous and similar.” | On a State-wide basis, the board found that 516 of employes voting | had chosen as their representatives | the International Association of Oil| Fileld, Gas Well and Refinery Work- ers of America; the International Association of Machinists, the Inter- national Brotherhood of Boilermakers | and Welders, the International | Brotherhood of Blacksmiths and | Helpers and _the - International | Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. | May Seek Other Plans. It added that if any individual or | minority group complained sga‘msc[ agreements negotiated by the unions, | the board would later “determine whether or not some other arrange- | ment is necessary to protect these in- terests.” Ickes also has ordered the Keener | Oil & Gas Co., Bartlesville, Okla., to | dissolve its company union and co- operate with the Petroleum Labor Pol- icy Board in a plant election to deter- | mine collective bargaining representa- | tives. | REQUIEM MASS HELD | FOR JOHN J. NOONAN Rev. Thomas A. Walsh Officiates | in Church of St. Thomas the Apostle. Requiem mass for John J. Noonan was conducted this morning at the Church of St. Thomas the Apostle by the pastor, Rev. Thomas A. Walsh. Mr. Noonan, whose efforts were a major factor in winning the fight for | reduced street car fares for school children, and who was one of the leaders in the campaign for free lunches for needy pupils, died Tuesday night of pneumcnia in Providence Hospital. Born 69 years ago in Xenia, Ohio, his life was mainly spent in the restau- rant, resort and hotel business. His ‘Washington residence began 33 years ago when he opened & lunch room at 1008 Pennsylvania avenue. Besides his widow. he is survived by two daughters living in Washington, | Mrs. Raymond C. Miller and Miss Mary Noonan. He also leaves two brothers and another daughter. BURIAL IN ARLINGTON | Mrs. Ella Moore Hawley to Be| Given Honors.

THE EVENING part of the heart in pumping the blood. Breathing becomes easier as the congestion in the lungs is relieved. Results Remarkable. Many stories are told of seemingl: impossible results obtained by the dia- thermy treatment. At Takoma Park little would be sald along that line. ‘The medical experts do not like to claim miracles. They stress only the common laws of pature and common sense. If the heart is overworked, relieve the work. If plenty of blood with its healing oxygen is required, aid Nature in supplying that flow of blood. That is the mission of diathermy. One case was cited in Takoma. It was that of a woman fairly well along in years and somewhat overplump, the type of victim who increases the mortality rate in pneumonia. Her case had become desperate. One evening she fell into the coma which usually precedes death. Her physician, a doc- tor in private practice, turned to dia- thermy. The apparatus was adjust- ed and the current turned on. For 30 minutes the 10,000 volts flashed back end forth through her chest before the current was turned off. By that time she was resting quietly. The next morning when her doctor called she was much better. Her mind was clear and she seemed almost cheerful. Within a few days she was past her crisis and on the road to recovery. The Diathermy treatment is given usually twice & day, although in severe cases it is given as often as BY HOWARD P. BAILEY. NEUMONIA, dread scourge of humanity, which one year ago claimed the lives of approxi- mately 87,000 persons in the United States, and but recent- ly caused the death of former Su- preme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, is gradually yielding its rav- ages to medical science. New methods of treatment have considerably cut down the mortality rate in the last 10 years and today the victim of this devastating disease has a better chance to recover than ever before. The use of oxygen has long held sway as a valuable life-saving aid in, the treatment of extreme cases and | in the late stages of pneumonia, but | there has recently been developed a| | new treatment, which when resorted | to in the early period of the illness | | has produced astounding results and even in apparently hopeless cases has resulted in remarkable cures. Method Used Here. 1 This method, known as “dia- thermy.” is now in use in a number of Washington hospitals, and has been reported as “widely successful.” | It is a peculiar fact that this method of treatment, first undertaken | 2t Staten Island Naval Hospital during the World War to relieve the suffering of sailors reaching New York with| pneumonia, has never commanded | much public attention. In fact, when first tried, the man| who developed the method of treat-| ment put but little faith in it, his| desire being only to make less painful | the last few hours of patients who seemed doomed to die of the lung| congestion. The fact that a large| number of his patients recovered was| charged off to confidence. i During the years which have fol-| lowed, however, diathermy has grad- ually commanded more and more at- tention, until now it is considered by some practitioners to rank in im- portance with the long successful oxygen treatment. Both Used on Patients. | Both diathermy and oxygen are used on the same patient at times, but not | simultaneously, as the explosive nature of oxygen makes this impossible. They | must be used separately. And it has been found that one method of treat- ment is a direct aid to the other. Out at the Washington Sanitarium | at Takoma Park, Md., diathermy has been in use for a decade or more, not | only for pneumonia but for treatment | cargo of oxygen does the curing. Diathermy only provides the mechan- ical means by which the blood is per- mitted to reach the infected spots. Ordinary household current is used in the treatment, but the diathermy | apparatus, through a series of trans- formers, raises the 110 volts to 10,000 volts, just about five times the poten= tiality which brings almost instant | death in the electric chair. A series of spark gaps and condensers, how- ever, cuts the amperage to glmost nothing. In diathermy, no sensation is felt other than a gradual feeling of | warmth. The tissues, of course, offer | resistance to the passage of the elec- | tricity and this resistance develops | . When the diathermy apparatus goes into operation, the patient within a few minutes begins to feel warm. The heat is carried throughout the body | of the patient and sweating is induced. That condition, naturally, is beneficial | to the patient for it aids in eliminating | body waste. The heat also serves to reduce the viscosity of the blood, makes it thin- ner and thus better able to penetrate 5¢ for this large bottle of Hollywood's favorite NAIL POLISH Screen Stars know their cosmetics— and when it comes to nail polish, many | | of them say “Moon Glow for me.” Why?
