War on Germs
NEW YORK CITY — Sound
Photo—If the Axis had tried “in
vading” U.S. with armies of germs,
we would have been ready for de-.
fense, thanks to co-operative re
search in biological warfare by
Army, Navy and Civilian agencies.
The mystery, which for two and a
half years surrounded Navy’s pro
ject at a west coast university, has
been pierced. It is revealed that
Naval Medical Research Unit No. 1
demonstrated the possibility of
man-made epidemics as' instru
ments of war and also gained
knowledge in planning mass de
fense against possible enemy use of
sickness as a weapon. A protective
suit with self-contained oxygen
supply, has been devised for the
use of workers in any prospective
rescue or decontamination opera
tion. It is shown above by a navy
man busy rendering safe for hu
manity, a theoretically contami
nated area.

In Madison
Square Garden
NEW YORK. Feb. 20—</P)—Five
Eskimos, camping out in Madison
Square Garden in an atmosphere
of prefabricated log cabins and all
metal canoes and sing song bark
ers, held a family council to cope
with a good neighbor crisis pre
cipitated by California school
children.
i Papa Bumaroon, seal hunter,
fur trapper and his family are at
tractions at the National Sports
man’s show, and were brought
here from Nome, Alaska on their
first visit to United States. David
i Irwin, Arctic explorer, organized
air rescue teams for stranded army
H er in Alaska brought them to
New York.
Bumaroon held seven iot
4*rs written by students of the
4h''-ri grade of San Ysidoro, Cali
fornia. school, who requested gifts
of polar beal* skins and ivory.
Bumaroon said he had decided to
write a note to the San Ysidoro
children and explain they did not
bring and whale skin, ivory bows
and arrows or bear skins when
they came to United States.
A universal language based on
the seven notes of the musical
scale instead of on grammar or
vocabulary is called the Spatari
Radio-Code.
