In addition the following ex- cerpts from Dr. CurtIs' report were released for publication:

"No major epidemics of di- lease occurred during the past year. one case of Typhoid Fever occurred this spring. The source was not discovered. No cases of Diphtheria and only four cases oi Pollomyeiitis were reported in 1956. Of the latter group. only one p ” showed residual mus- cle weakness requiring treatment at the Orthopedic Centre. So far in l957 one mild case of this disease which showed no weak- ness has been reported During the past year an extensive pro- gramme of inoculation against poliomyelltis has been carried out throughout the province. It is considered that most oi the children between six months and nineteen years have received two or more doses oi vaccine. As the type oi disease usually encoun- tered in the young adult age group appears to result in a high- er incidence of several residual muscle weakness or in death than in children. we are happy to note that Connaught Laborator- ies have made the vaccine free- ly available to practitioners. and trust that physician! will encour- age adults up to the age of for- ty years to receive this protec-

as a result of which some me- thoda oi spread were discovered.

- Carriers among the attending

staff were treated. faulty tech- niques were corrected. isolation procedures were instigated and the spread brought under control. The incidenc of infection in the community is unknown but there is reason to believe that Infec- tion with antibiotic-resistant stap- hylococci may remain in a fam- ily for months.

"The'number of specimens submitted to the Central Labor- atories for investigation has in- creased tremendously during the past year. This has been due to various factors e.g. the perfor- mance of examinations of spec- imens from hospital patients and those in physicians' offices at no cost to the patient. the in- crease in testing for sensitivity of organisms to various antibi- otics, and the increased aware- ness of the part of physicians of the prevalence of staphylococ- cal infections.

"The Division of Laboratories has further attempted to assist physicians by purchasing equip- ment and making arrangements to provide an autopsy service to the three larger hospitals. The establishment of regular clinical pathological conferences in Char- Iottetown anti Summersidc has provided a valuable means of physician education and such conferences have been well at- tended.

"In the field of Mental Health the Active Treatment Centre, now known as the Hillsborough General Hospital. has been open- ed to patients Shortage of nurs- ing personnel has delayed the full utlization of this hospital, but new sections will be opened As a new Nurst-:s' Residence has been constructed in connection with this hospital, and a Train- ing School Officer has returned from six months special study in several of the larger provinces, it is expected that courses in Mental Health for stu- dents from the three provincial training schools of nursing will be available next fall.

The increased use of the new drugs against tuberculosis has resulted in shorter periods of san- iiorium care and more prolong- ed home care under the super- vision of the family physician and the out-patient branch of the Tuberculosis Control Division. A programme of tuberculin test- ing by means of a new ln';ac- utaneous method followed by min- iature chest x-raying of positive reactors has been carried out in many communities since last fall. Though few unknown cases of tu- berculosis have been discovered the method is believed to be con- siderably more effective and less cosaly than the previous method of case finding by mass x-rays.

"Some three months ago the Government of this province sig- nified its intention of introduc- ing a system of Hospital insur- ance and Diagnostic Services. A Citizens' Committee was set up to study the problem and to suggest ways and means by which the services might be plac- ed in operation. Our Association is represented on the Commit- tee by Dr. J. A. McMillan and Dr. L. E. Pfowse. To date sev- eral preliminary meetings have been held and basic information is being considered. It would ap- pear quite possible that the As- sociation may he asked to sub- mit a brief on this important subject at some time in the fu- ture."

Whooping Crane Chicks Grow

WASHINGTON (AP) - The world's only known captive whooping crane chicks have been eating like pigs. srowlns like weeds. and now are almost as large as their parents. the fish and wildlife service reported Sat- urday.

George Scott. ngriculturiat at the Bronx zoo. r ognized as one of the world's finest, went to New Orleans zoo before the birds hatched last May.

Fish and wildlife service offi- cials said his successful raising of the chicks has been a definite contribution to survival of the whooping crane as a species.

Previously three other whoop- ers were batched in captivity. making five in all all from eggs of the same two adult cranes. Crip and Josephine.

Pflotleu Jet Will Be Target

The Ryan ”Firebee". a high- speed high-altitude Pllotieas jet target plane which simulates Ifr tacking jet fighters and bombers will come into service with the RCA! next year. it was announ- ced by Air Force Beadqu -tn-. Thirty of these let drones new are on order from the United States Navy with delivery to the RCA? scheduled to commence in January 150.

Built by the Ryan Aeronauti- cal Company of San Diego. Cal- ifornia. under sponsorship of the United States military forces. the Firebee will not replace targets now used in the RCAF. but will serve as a realistic target for testing and evaluating present and future weapons systems. Em- ploying a radar reflective device, the Flrebee simulates a high- speed errcrrr, bomber at high al- titudes when viewed on a radar tracking screen.

Released from a launch aircraft the remotely controlled Firebee can climb from sea level to 40.- on feet in to minutes and is capable of attaining speeds of approximately 600 miles an hour at that attitude. Simiiating the high . altitude. speed. attack. and evaaiveness of modern jet fight- ers and bombers. the swept-wing pilotless target has an endurance of approximately an hour and twenty minutes and has flown in distances of more than 100 miles from the electronic remote con- trol unit.

Built in its 11 foot fuselage is a two-stage parachute which opens automatically when the jet fuel supply has been exhausted. or which can be commanded to open by a remote control unit. This parachute. with a built-in floatation system, assures safe recovery of the target from eith- er land or water and due to the target's rugged construction. lit- tle or no damage is received when it makes contact with the earth. Powered by a Fairchild J-44 jet engine which produces approxi- mately 1000 pounds thrust. the FIrebee's 1800 pound airframe is easily assembled by means of .c'' aligning bolts and four - point attachements.
