Patient’s Maximum X-Ray ‘Dose’ Gauged _ By Machine Replacing Old‘Sunburn’ Test eeeccevccecccccce ecee By B. C. COLTON ted Press Science Writer) WASHINGTON, October 20.— ‘What's your X-ray capacity? . It varies according to whether. you’re a blond or brunet and never is ‘quite the same for any two people, but your life sometime may depend on receiving all the X-rays you can stand. A new, quicker and safer way of making sure that a patient re- ceives his full capacity of X-rays has been developed by L. S.

A giant. ‘electrical ‘machine known as a “resistor,” which looks like a pile of thick soup, plates strung on a stitk, makes possible this new check on _ doses. The plates hold el current, and measure accurately.the quality of an X-ray beam. Testing the. quality of the beam makes it possible ell: whether a patient is receiving all the X- rays he can stand, ut. produc- ing a burn more-dangerous. than the disease the X-rays were meant to treat. a at " Beats “Sunburn” Test This method easier, and safer than the old “erythema, or “sunburn test,” in which the i creased reddening of the’ patient’s skin under/increaséd A-ray «doses told physicians when they were ap- proaching the danger point.

STRIKERS FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION CONFRONTED WITH. CHAL- LENGE BY NATIONAL FARM HOLIDAY ASSOCIATION (iy Auwociated Prewn) A challenge was thrown to the! ;federal administration at Wash- ington today by the calling of al {farm strike by the National Farm Holiday Association. The challenge came in a de-' mand for an NRA for agriculture, some of whose leaders expressed | ‘dissatisfaction with the farmer’s Position in the nation’s present economic picture, and held to the; theory that better prices could be obtained for, farm produce by; withholding it from the market,’ starting at noon tomorrow. In . other quarters, however, there was disagreement. The 4 Farmers’ Elevator Association of Nebraska, gave little support, while farm leaders in some other localities indicated no help would be forthcoming from them. The idea originated in Iowa where several persons were killed‘ during clashes in a'holiday move- ment a year ago. The latest strike order followed an: attempted” embargo in North Dakota on wheat, ordered. by Gov- ernér ‘Langer, who directed the national guard to be in readiness to enforce the order, but with- held directions, sending them into action pending a study of the! legal, aspects of the situation.

Many felt there was an implied promise of the building of a new economic order in this country. Then came March 4 and with it the series of unprecedented crises. Machinery was installed hastily to cope with the emergency. The “new deal,” in the minds of al- most everybody, became synonp- mous with everything that was being done to bring the nation back to its feet. Those close to the president, however, are of the opinion that the draws a‘tlear distinction —be- tween his emergency program and the “new deal.” Behind The TVA Dr. Arthur E. Morgan, director of the Tennessee Valley Authority, in a recent discussion of the TVA, jbrought this out clearly when he said that the proect should not be considered primarily as a dam building job, a fertilizer job or power transmission job. “When I first went to see Pres- ident Roosevelt,” said Morgan, “he talked for an hour about the TVA and there was scarcely a mention of power or fertilizer, “He talked chiefly about a de- signed and planned social and eco- steemer Yashima Maru foundered/two.sToRY, AND COMPLETE.

Simultaneously, league of- ficials drew attention to the wide difference between Ja- pan’s bolt and Germany’s withdrawal. Japan resigned because of condemnation of the Man- churian policy, and Germany, the. league had not done enough for her. Officials believe it js eas- ier for the Reich to #éturn to the league.
