SNAPPY FACTS
ABOUT
RUBBER
There are two big "unknown*" In
trying to anticipate the eventual
"balance of power" between natu
ral and synthetic rubber,In the opin
ion of John L Collyer, President of
The B. F. Goodrich Co. These un
knowns are respective production
costs and the relative value of these
types of rubber In different kinds
of products several years hence.
During the manofacture of
one variety of synthetic rub
ber, materials must be kept
at a temperature of 100 de
grees below zero.
Use of rayon has improved the
performance of synthetic truck tires
as much as 375 percent compared
with tires made of cotton cord, some
industry authorities report.

Penicillin Can Be
Given by Mouth
In New Method
'Wonder Drug’ Suspended
In Cottonseed Oil and Is
Put Into Gelatin Capsules
It is now possible to administer
penicillin in capsules through the
mouth instead of the hypodermic in
jection method. This new technique
is considered an important forward
step in medicine, since there are
several objections to the present
practice of injecting the “miracle
drug.” Dr. Raymond L. Libby, a
research specialist in the Lederle
laboratories of the American Cyani-
mid corporation, developed the new
method after many months of study
and experimentation.
The great difficulty to be overcome
was that the stomach acids de
stroyed penicillin’s power before it
could be absorbed in the blood. Tab
lets of the drug, coated with vari
ous materials designed to dissolve
after the tablet reached the small in
testine, were tried, but discarded, be
cause the “breaking up” point could
not be accurately predetermined.
Dr. Libby finally solved the prob
lem by suspending the penicillin in
cottonseed oil, which is digestible.
He then put the mixture in gelatine
capsules. This preparation is known
as Leder"illin-G Oral.
When the gelatine capsule dis
solves, it frees the oil, which passes
into the small intestine, and is di
gested. The penicillin is then rap
idly absorbed, and taken into the
blood stream. Its marvelously ef
fective action soon follows at the
point of infection.
The list of dangerous infectious
conditions that are cleared up by
penicillin continues to increase.
Pneumonia, meningitis, abscesses,
carbuncles, clotting of blood in the
sinuses of the brain, pus collections
in the chest, and various wound in-

fections all yield to penicillin. It is
also highly effective in childbirth fe
ver, peritonitis, gas gangrene, gon
orrhea, and anthrax, among many
others.
Although still expensive because
difficult to make, penicillin is becom
ing more plentiful, and the time will
come when the drug will be avail
able for all real needs. A new form,
called penicillin X, is being devel
oped at the Lederic laboratories.
This is to be much stronger than the
present form, which is a mixture of
three penicillin types.
Farm Organizations Seek to
Through Gradually
By WALTER A. SHEAD
WNU Staff Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The whole
Weight of farm organizations here
will be thrown into the fight for con
tinued price control legislation to ex
tend well into the postwar era, when
hearings start soon on new legisla
tion for continuance of OPA. Under
existing law, the Office of Price Ad
ministration will expire June 30,
1945.
According to Edward A. O’Neal,
president of the American Farm Bu
reau federation, all farm organiza
tions will join in the price control
and wage stabUization fight to con
tinue “until there is a sufficient
amount of goods on the market to
effect a balance between agricul
tural and industrial commodities.”
It appears that, insofar as wage
stabilization goes, the farm organi
zations are fighting a losing battle
to retain the “Little Steel formula”
as a stabilization basis.
So far, the farmers have lost in
their campaign against consumer
subsidies, but insofar as the new
OPA bill is concerned, they have
adopted a new policy which seeks
to liquidate subsidies by a gradual
increase in farm prices, and to fix
specific dates after which no subsi
dies will be permitted under the
terms of the act.
Some Fine Distinctions.
As has been pointed out, the farm
ers draw a line, sometimes a pretty
fine line, of distinction as to subsi
dies or “incentive payments” which
are paid out of the public treasury
to bring about increased production
of certain agricultural commodities,
and consumer subsidies, which are
payments from the public treasury
in lieu of “adequate” and “fair”
market place prices.
To back up their line of cleavage,
however, the farm leaders point to

figures indicating that for “legiti
mate” support of farm prices
through incentive payments under
the farm program, the Commodity
Credit corporation has made a net
profit of approximately $50,000,000
since 1933, whereas under the con
sumer subsidy operation there has
been a net loss of approximately
$1,250,000,000.
The farm associations expect to
back an amendment to the new OPA
act which would provide that no
money can be expended for con
sumer subsidies on and after June
30, 1945, unless the money has been
actually appropriated jby the con
gress. So far the congress has not
voted a direct appropriation for pay
ment of subsidies.
The farmers believe that prices of
farm commodities can be raised
gradually, over a period, which will
eliminate the need for subsidy pay
ments, and that this gradual in
crease or readjustment of price ceil
ings will not upset the stabilization
program.
New legislation which extends the
life of the Commodity Credit corpo
ration for two years and increases
its lending limitations contains pro
visions for a ceUing on the amount
of money which may be spent for
subsidies. Whether or not this pro
vision will stand up through the
house hearings is a question.

Big Boom in Belts
If you like to make your own
gadgets (and who doesn’t) here are
some tricky belt ideas to get to work
on right away. No need to tell you
that belts are back in a big way, is
there?
Walnut Winner — String walnut
shells together for a casual sports
belt. Shine them up with colorless
nail polish.
Lights Out—Clip those bicycle re
flectors (from the dime store) to
your belt and you’ll
set a shining ex
ample for the rest
of the gang to fol
low.
No Missing
Links — Have you
collected so many
friendship links
that you don’t
know what to do
with them? Just
string them on a piece of velvet
ribbon long enough to tie around
your waist, or, if you prefer,
sew them on a suede belt.
Felt Belt and Bag—Any gal can
make her own belt out of felt. Make
a matching change or cosmetic
purse to hang on in front as a fob.
Did you see this belt in leather, pic
tured in Calling All Girls?
Worth a Darn—Have you ever
seen those braided strips of multi
color darning cotton they sell at the
notion counter of your favorite five
and dime? Tie them around your
waist as belts.
Domino Darlings — String domi
noes together to make a belt. Drill
holes in them, or easier still, screw
little hooks into each one and twist
the yarn or leather thongs around
the hooks.
Harpy Huddles
Unless that fellow’s on a furlough,
you’re apt to be W.A.D. (Without
A Date, junior). What do you do
then? Mope around, mooning to his
favorite platter or do you get togeth
er with the gals for a HARPY HUD
DLE? Come on, now, brush your
self off that shelf and discover that
Plenty of Ducks, but
They Flew Too High
What happened to 150 million
ducks last fall? Thousands of sports
men all over the country have been
asking that question! They have
been asking it because estimates by
the U. S. Fish and Wildlife service.
Ducks Unlimited, and other compe
tent observers, led them to believe
last fall was going to be a banner
season of duck shooting. Results
were far from what was expected.
Some shooters blamed the weath
er; others blamed the ducks, com
plaining that they were not follow
ing their established flyways. Many
were skeptical about the pre-season
estimates.
Field and Stream’s publisher. El-
tinge F. Warner, set out to get some
down-to-earth answers. He asked a
number of competent observers who
were in a position to check condi
tions along the nation’s four major
flyways.
Will J. Reid, Los Angeles, former
president of Ducks Unlimited:
“Birds almost one month late—local
duck population unquestionably ex
ceeded that of one year ago.”
Gene A. Howe, Amarillo, Texas,
member of Texas Game commis
sion: “We haven’t had a duck con
centration because this has been a
dry season. The increase in can-
vasbacks has been astonishing—the
same with redheads. Western Okla
homa had the best shooting in
years.”
Horace Thompson, St. Paul, Minn.,
sportsman and conservationist: “On
the whole there were more ducks
than ever, although they changed
their flight in this part of the country
back to their old-time flightways and
left the deep lake country pretty bar
ren.”
L. H. Barkhausen, Chicago, for
mer president of Ducks Unlimited:
“As a shooting season, 1944 was very
unsatisfactory, since most of the
ducks merely passed from the rest
lakes high into the cornfields and
back without giving the hunters a
good chance at them. I do not think
there was any question but that
there were many more ducks than
usual, although the kill was much
lighter.”
Alfred C. Glassell, Shreveport,
La., president of Ducks Unlimited:
“In Louisiana I am sure we have
considerably more ducks than ever
before, but hunting has been spotty
in different localities, due to water
and food conditions.”
Ben East, Grand Rapids, Mich.,
conservationist: “Low-water levels'
and a mild fall had much to do with
one of the poorest duck-hunting
years in a decade. The record flight
predicted in advance of the season
did not materialize, and it is evi
dent that the Michigan flyway has
not made as good a comeback from
the great duck depression as flyways
in other sections of the country.”
George J. Stobie, Augusta, Maine,
Commissioner, Inland Fisheries and
Game: “Duck hunting in Maine’s
coastal marshes and tidal estuaries
was distinctly better than usual, al
though conditions at inland marshes
failed to measure up to those of m
year ago—flights late and highly er
ratic-hunting was best during first
two weeks and the last three week?
of the season.”
a female forum can be fun, too.
Kitchen Kut-ups—Invite the gals
over for a kitchen dinner. Have ev
erything ready and pitch in on the
cooking. Even dish washing is fun
when you make a party out of it.
Fortune Telling—The latest diver
sion for a Hen Roost is the Ouija
board. Turn the lights down low,
play some sweet-and-low stuff on the
phonograph and the spirits will spell
out the name of the boy who’s going
to ask you to the first class dance.
Flicker Fans—Aren’t we all movie
mad? Lots of gals get together for
movie magazine parties. Each girl
brings a magazine and the crowd
looks through them together. It’s
fun to trade pictures if you’re a col
lector.
