Turn and take it without whimpering.” To Standardize Medical Equipment, Training PARIS (#—The 14 NATO nations have set out on an ambitious pro- gram of standardizing their medi- cal equipment and training. Looking toward the possibility of another -world war, their aim is to make the military medical supplies of each nation alike. Thus, a British stretcher would fit in an American ambulance and a Turkish needle wy fit. on a French syringe. They don’t now. The same thing would be done in- training techniques. The Danish elbow lift method of resuscitation, for example, would be taught all military medical officers, nurses and corpsmen of all 14 countries. It is rated as the best method to- day atid has been widely adopted in the United States. No target has been set for.com- plete standardization. In fact, Capt. Cecil Coggins, of the U. S. Navy said in an interview that it would be a gradual process taking two to three years. The important thing fs that the military medical chiefs of 11 of the 14 nations already have agreed, in principle, on the plan. At a recent meeting at Supreme Headquarters, Allied’ Powers in| Europe here, the medical men | agreed to appoint three committees | to work out the details. “Agreeing on what equipment and which techniques are the best | It would be economically unsound for the military medical divisions of each nation to suddenly junk their present equipment. “That's why we will move slow- ly. Once the committees decide ‘on what supplies will be standard for NATO, each country will be- gin buying the standard types as their present stocks need replen- ishing, “Thus, no nation will suffer eco- nomically,” Capt. Coggins said. “And in the Jong run, it is obvious it will be an eventual saving for them. We have found that in time of war, when several nations are fighting side by side, there is a tremendous amount of waste be- cause equipment can’t be inter- changed.” More important than the equip- ment is standardization of training of personnel. “When an American soldier is wounded and is taken to a Nor- wegian hospital,’ Capt. Coggins said, “he will know that he will get the same kind of medical treat- ment he would get if he had been taken to an American hospital.” The under! bling, and rng yo pot hncs | grow curiously calm and indiffer- Devereaux brought the butt of BW, gun down. oe =e cra noise, and specks painted plaster’ blew with the sos cussion, a Ses ne enters: Cabot re- Ine. motion! with shock, with his hands up and hi @ night train back to Kansas City,” Devereaux said tonelessly. xs A LITTLE while later, Deve- feaux said, “Whenever get on the phone about this, Li FY think of Pearl.” His eyes hy implacably. abet me ve y. a eae ae “Lippy nodd cally ippy nodded mechani .
