( government for all Korea.
( T he last delegates were leaving
£ Bogota, where the Ninth Pan-Am
erican Conference ended yester
I day with the signing of a 21-na
jl tion economic pact.
Haganah said the Arab inva
sion of North Palestine included
attacks on Ramot Naftali, Lahav
ot, Habashan, Kefar Szold, Dan
iuid Dafne. The Jewish militia
declared the Arabs used tanks
armored cars, 25-pound cannon
and mortars. Syrian troops were
! said by Haganah to be massing
i on the border.
The Jewish militia said it had
taken the whole Katamon quar
ter of Jerusalem before the truce
| stilled the fighting. The Jews said
also they had blown up three
bridges in southern Palestine,
probably to counter a threat of
reported massing of Egyptian
forces.
Common Cold
Conference Is
I Proposed
((A3) Nawsfeatures)
CHICAGO, (A3) — A national
conference on how to fight the
common cold is proposed by Noah
D. Fabricant, M.D., assistant pro
fessor of otolaryngology at the
Unversity of Illinois college of
medicine. He would have not only
doctors, but chemists, biologists,
p h a r m acologists, physiologists,
bacteriologists, engineers and
architects at the meeting.
The engineers and architests
might be able to supply useful in
i formation on buildings designed to
I keep the indoor air fairly free
from the common cold causes.
Dr. Fabricant says colds are not
a definite, single disease, but a
group of different ills. If cures for
colds are to be found he thinks a
national, cooperative scientific
and medical effort must be made.
If such a plan were adopted, Dr.
Fabricant said it could be used to
collect funds from the public, and
probably states to support the re
search.
Dr. Fabricant quoted medical
; studies to show that all present
remedies for the common cold are
of little value, except rest in bed
i and use of steam or other inhala
tions to relieve irritated nasal pas
sages.
He said special diets, vaccines,
and use of ultra-violet light and
of sprays to purify the air of com
mon cold infections have failed to
stand rigid tests.
Present remedies, Dr. Fabricant
said, treat the symptoms, rather
than getting rid of the cold itself.
Alcohol has been used for genera
tions, either to break up early
colds or treat them.
Dr. Fabricant said lhai in rsson
able doses alcohol does some
things to the body that may be
useful for common cold symp
toms. It promotes blood circula
tion in chilled areas and dilates
blood vessels near the body's sur
face, both of which may be useful
at times.
Dr. Fabricant cited all the
known remedies as an argument
j that a great national research pro
I ject is needed in order to get at
| the roots of colds and find out any
general treatment that will be use
ful to the majority of sufferers.
