HEALTH RATE IS EXCELLENT FOR
NIPPON-BASED AMERICAN SOLDIERS
Bv SUSAN TATE
ARC Staff Correspondent
TOKYO—If your son is a mem
ber of the occupation forces in
Japan, there are only two chances
out of a hundred that he is ill,
Colonel V. J. Erkenbeck, Acting
Surgeon for the eighth Army,re
ports. ,
Colonel Erkenbeck disclosed that
the sick rate for last month was
1.9 percent while the average for
troops on posts in the United
States is 2 percent indicating ex
tremely good health for Nippon
based Gls.
General good health among
troops stems from a concentrated
program of preventative measur
es. Complete immunization and
recommendations to insure mak
ing food, clothing and housing ad
equate against the cold have been
important. Food is being present
ed in a more attractive manner
than formerly.
In order to prevent disease or
epidemics among Japanese who
might infect American forces, Al
lied Government has issued de
tailed instructions to the Japan
ese Government. If supplies are
needed to forstall a possible epi
demic the U.S. Army Medical
Corps will turn over to the Jap
anese sufficient medicines or vac
cines to control the situation. Wa
ter used by Americans is checked
and treated. Repatriates and Jap
anese soldiers returning from is
lands in the Pacific are checked
for communicable disease at the
port of debarkation under super- |
vision of American medics.
The Medical Corps aims at
making every hospital in Japan
the equivalent in facilities of a
hospital of equal size in the United
States. Medical supplies brought
in by field units give the surplus
now on hand Hospitals here have
their strength of nurses; and suf
ficient medical officers, despite
rapid return home of the high
point Army medics.
No hospitals in Japan are hous
ed in tents. --- ^ have
been given high priority in
selection of buildings suited for
their needs, and engineers, using
Japanese labor, are working as
rapidly as possible to make
such changes as are needed to
convert them. Heating and plum-
i n c COVINGTON NEWS
ing facilities for hospitals have
number one priority.
At the request of Brig. General
Guy B. Denit, Chief Surgeon AF
PAC, the number of American
Red Cross workers in each hospit
al has been increased for the dur
ation of occupation. Addition
workers are to provide a large re
creation and hanacraft program
and to spend more time with in
dividual patients.
Sufficient quantities of blood
plasma»are stored in warehouses.
Colonel Erkenback states that any
patient who will require more
than 120 days hospitalization will
be returned to the United States
Army Surgeon Is
Given Hinh Post
In Cancer Siciety
Another link in the fight to
save the lives of thousands who
die of cancer was forged this
week with the appointment of
one of the nation’s leading army
surgeons to a high post in the
American. Cancer Society, accord
ing to information received here
by Mrs. F. C. Nesbit, commander
of the society’s field army in
Newton County-
The new official is Col. A. W.
Oughterson of the Army Institute
of Pathology in Washington and
■ former clinical professor of sur-
I gery at Yale. The colonel who
' recently returned to this country
। from Japan where he investigat
ed the effects of the atomic bomb,
| has been appointed medical and
scientific director and executive
vice-president of the national
society.
Mrs. Nesbit pointed out that
Colonel Oughterson’s appoint
ment has an interesting connec
tion between the campaign for
funds which will be held here in
April and the over-all goal of
the Society in its search for a
cancer cure.
Recently science has turned to
the atomic bomb for a possible
solution to the cancer riddle.
The America Cancer Society has
requested use of the uranium pile
I developed for atomic bomb con
struction for production of long
' lived, radio-active carbon and
I hydrogen which are value in can
-1 cer research.
Much of the money raised dur- I
' ing April will go toward develop- j
ing this and many other angles !
of cancer research.

Don’t Neglect Them!
Nature designed the kidneys to io a
marvelous job. Their task is to keep the
flowing blood stream free of an excess of
toxic impurities. The act of living life
itself— is constantly producing waste
matter the kidneys must remove from
the blood if good heath is to endure.
When th^ kidneys fail to function as
Nature intended, there is retention of
waste that may cause body-wide dis«
tress. One may suffer nagging backache,
persistent headache, attacks of dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, puffiness
under the eyes—feel tired, nervous, al’
worn out.
Frequent, scanty or burning passages
are sometimes further evidence of kid
ney or bladder disturbance.
The recognized and proper treatment
is a diuretic medicine to help the kidneys
get rid of excess poisonous body waste.
