Gene Cook Discusses
: Regional Education
.
Eugene Cook, attorney general of
Georgia, told the Griffin Exchange
, Club in an address Tuesday that
| the pact recently signed by the gov
I ernors of nine southern states for
j ] higher education on a regional
basis may be the answer to higher
, education ih this region,
Cook, speaking solely on the ed
ucational pact and without refer
ence to politics, explained that the
signing of the pe.ct was only the
first step in furnishing education
on the graduate level to both white
and colored students.
The pact must be approved by
the U. S. Congress, the various
courts and each state’s legislature.
Cook pointed out that no one
Southern state could furnish edu
ation in specialized fields be
-au.se nf the lack of funds. But he
said all the states working togeth
er could afford the best in this
tiype education.
The pact, which was signed last
Sunday at the governors’ confer
ence at Wakulla Springs. Fla., was
the result of 10 years of research
by educators. Cook said.
Cook explained that Neharry
Medical College in Nashville, Tenn
will turn all its facilities and en
dowment over to the group
;;(ntps jf the pact goes through.
; ‘ateti that the college is the only
one of its type in the South that
nrovides medical training on a
higher level for Negroes.
Cook told the club that if this
iilan was approved by the people of
(he South and passed ali other ob
staples, it would no longer be nec
essary for Southern students to go
to^istitutions in the East and West
for specialized training.

Painless Denlisi
Soon Here, Thanks
To War Advances
PITTSBURGH (U.R)—'Tire trip to
rthe ........ dentist twice a year soon
be a less unpleasant experience.
“The painless dentist,” more or
less, Is here at last. Science has de-
1 veloped a way to eliminate the pain
of the drill.
Dr. Harold Hillenbrand, secretary
: 1 of the American Dental Associa
tion, hailed progress In “pain con
trol"—both in extractions and fill
i ings—as one of the most significant
of the war-time advances In den
tistry.
! The latest tool which the war ad
ded to the kit of the "painless den
tist” is a diamond-tip drill.
The old style drill, usually made
of hard steel, generated heat which
would react on the nerves of the
teeth and cause pain. The diamond
drill produces little heat. Hence, no
Dr. Hillenbrand- said much prog
ress had been made In local anes
thetics designed to deaden pain
without endangering the patient.
He said, however, the use of so
dium pentathol is not vet advis-1
able for the general dentist’s chair !
and this efficient drug should be j
administered only In hospital cases.
“Hartman’s solution,” which stir- !
red up enthusiasm a few years ago. ;
proved a disappointment. It was an ;
anesthetic which was applied di- j
rectly to the tooth. It was supposed
to deaden the tooth while the den- j i
tlst pulled it or worked on a filling
But the solution evaported too
quickly and lost its effectiveness.
Dr. Hillenbrand said children
should be taught not to fear the |
dentist. He recommended that the
child’s first visit to the dentist’s of- |
fice should be made with a parent ■
who is to have work done, That :
should be done when the child is
about two years old.
It Is a simple application of prac
tical psychology and the child riiay
learn there Is nothing to fear.
