Zurich Herald, 1945-02-22, Page 2Death From Wounds . Is Greatly Reduced The rate of death from combat wounds in this war has been re- duced to little more than half what it was in the First Great War, Major General Albert W. Kenner, chief Army Supreme Head- quarters medical officer, said re- cently. He said this was accomplished though 55 to 60 percent. of the Injuries in this war were due to high explosive artillery and mortar fire. In the First Great War 60 percent. of the casualities were caused by small arms fire. The mortality rate from battle wounds is running under four percent, cf the total injured. In the last war it was from seven to eight percent. Even among cases which would have been consider- ed hopeless in the last war, many now are being saved through use of adequate equipment, and be- cause of specialized surgery, the speed of the jeep and the transport plane in moving the wounded back, and the benefits of sulfa drugs and penicillin. During the last war, 60 percent. of the battle casualties developed infection. In this war the rate is less than 10 percent. THE LADY QUITS Outspoken, Virginia -born Lady Astor, above, first woman to sit in British' Parliament, will retire at expiration of her current term a year from now, she revealed in London on the 25th anniver- sary of day she first took seat. Churchill 'Settles' That Son -In -Law This is a London story which is being credited to Vic Oliver, who has a sense of humor: Oliver dined with his father-in-law, Win- ston Churchill. "Pop", he asked the Prime Minister who dislikes being addressed as pop, "if you had to be a dictator, which of the dictators would you rather be?" ... "I'd prefer to be Mussolini," said Churchill. . . "But why Mus- solini?" asked his son-in-law. 'Mus- solini is the weakest, was the first to succumb and now is alive only by the grace of Hitler." . "Mus- solini", said Churchill, "is the only man .I know who could have his son-in-law shot and get away with 'When In Rome' . ; v A navy officer learned that In Rome it is best to do as the Ro- mans do—and that is to keep hands off somebody else's fights. He dame out of a store in Rome and found two Italians fighting at the (curb. One was big; the other was /small,. -The officer went to the rescue of the srnall chap and sent the big one on his way. The small fellow Shouted his thanks and ran down the street, The officer smiled with the hap- piness of a man who has done a good deed. Then an Italian by- stander stepped up to him and explained, The big fellow had been beating up the small one because the small ane was stealing articles from the -svy officer's jeep. City + f . ,, berdeen - r n bed 32 Times "The Granite City" Most Bombed Area of Scotland Interesting revelations have been made regarding the bombing of Scotland by the Germans, and it is surprising to learn that the most bombed city is Aberdeen, which• has suffered 32 raids, some of them very severe, continents The Strat- ford Beacon -Herald. Next come the small fishing ports of Fraser- burgh and Peterhead, also in Aber- deenshire with 23 attacks each. No other municipalitiy had more than about one-third as many raids as Aberdeen Edinburgh coming next with 12, although the naval base of Rosyth and the Forth bridige, a few miles away, were among the earliest targets of the war. Glas- gow had 10 raids. * * * It would he interesting to learn why, the Germans picked on the city of Aberdeen and the towns of Fraserburgh and Peterhead. "The Granite City" has. a popu- lation of 170,000; Peterhead about 14,000 and Fraserburgh 10,000. Aberdeen and Glasgow are each 500 miles from ,the nearest Ger- man air bases in Holland, and Glasgow is a much more valuable objective from the German point of view than all the Aberdeenshire ports put together, the Clyde being perhaps the greatest shipbuilding centre in the world. The Aber- deenshire ports have shipbuilding yards, and they also furnish a very Iarge proportion of the mine- sweepers of the country. Being en- tirely built of granite, the city of Aberdeen could stand a' good deal of knocking about. * * * The Aberdonians may wonder why the Germans bombed them more than any other area of Scot- land. Maybe they look upon it as a compliment, because it is the headquarters of the toughest of all the Scottish regiments — the Gor- don Highlanders. Animals In Zoo Miss The Children The flying bomb evacuation of children from London has had a noticeable effect on the zoo. Whereas the crowds of children used to collect to stare at the animals, the ani•.nals now rush to get a look at the children, Britain Magazine relates. You Will Enjoy Staying At The ST.
