B. “DRUGS \A new, important weapon has been added to the ar- ““senal used in the fight against one of mankind’s greatest .infectious .diseases. What has been described as ‘“‘very encouraging” results has heen obtained in advanged cases of tuberculosis after treatment by two new chemical compounds, \ These drugs were used on approximately 200 human tims of tuberculosis, wno had failed to respond to any sther method and whose cases were considered hopeless. ‘The new chemical discoveries, which doctors warn are still in the experimental stage, hold out the greatest hope t in the battle against tuberculosis. Even conservative doctors do not deny that results so far attained are very encouraging and that no danger- ous reaction has resulted from use of the two new chem- jeals-as used in the treatment of T. B. The National Tu- hereulosis Association considers the results greatly en- “‘éotiraging though not yet conclusive, and says several months may be required for further clinical trials and findings before any formal announcement can be made. tained indicated the drugs were powerful new weapons and :possibly the first of scores of their kind which may be added to the drugs used in the continuing war against tuberculosis. While it is unwise to be over-optimistic about new d¥igs, itis probabiy safe to say that discovery and pre- _Jithindry use of these two chemical compounds are the most’ encouraging news in the fight against tuberculos in some years. The three chemicals which have been usec “ithe compounds are all relatives of niacin the anti-pel- lagra vitamin, which is a member of the vitamin B com plex group, originally known as vitamin B-3. These chem- icals are known as isomers of niacin. Drv Geoffrey Rake, director of the Squibb Institute “for. Medical Research, said at a recent conference that in “the test tube and in mice, one of the compounds “has demonstrated spectacular activity against tubercle bacil li’* Dr. Mareus D.

The second \is a full-seale drive being launched |this week by the newly organized Non-ferrous Scrap Metal Mobiliza- Council. This is aimed at! 1‘ reting out hidden or forg.ten | scrap to be melted down and used | again. | | tion By increasing supplies, copper men also hope to head off the trend of users to seek out substi- tutes for the copper they can't get. Copper men don’t want this to be- come a fixed habit, after the, short- ‘age is over. American miners will produce in over the next four years. Cor- | nelius F.

By the end of 1956 there will be copper enough to support an industrial index of 270, Kelley says. That weald mean a 26 per | zent hike in industrial production ‘or the nation. So Kelley reasons hat there'll be plenty of copper or the country’s needs. J. K. Richardson, assistant gen- ‘ral manager of Kennecott’s Utah | sopper divisic-a, says U. S. mines ast year and estimates they will ve able to produce 1,153,576 tons dy 1955, a gain of 24 per cent.
