The most satisfactory arteries for suture are the carotid, the femoral, and the popliteal.

Colonel Maisonnet (France) stated objections to improvised tourniquets. He said that in all countries efforts were being made to produce a perfect tourniquet for field use. All combatants should be trained in the method of application. Every wounded man to whom a tourniquet had been applied should be specially reported and evacuated as soon as possible to a surgical unit. The treatment of blood ves-i sela had benefited greatly by thei general improvement in the treat-l ment of war wound, and the prog-i nosis had improved with facilities for early and more elaborate treat- ment in the surgical organisation of the army.

Grave Complications Major 'Voncken (Belgium) spoke of the sequels of wounds of the blood vessels, and discussed the trophic, vasomotor, and functional causes to which delay in the restora- tion of the circulation might be due. The formation of arterial and arterio-venous aneurysms, diffused or eirsold haematomas, constituted grave complications in wounds of blood vessels. In general, the treat- ment most frequently applicable was resection, in addition to ligatures required during the operation. The after-effects of wounds of blood") vessels were important, and even in the absence of visible disturbances the function must be watched very closely by means of the passive movement test and oscilometric research.

Rockefeller Feels Fit at Ninety

Avoiding most of the excite- ment of the great event in his life of passing ninety, John D. Rockefeller, Sr., oil magnate and benefactor, spent the day on his great Tarrytown, N. Y., estate. with his family and his golf game. Thirty years ago, John D. Rockefeller, who now looks forward to passing the hundred mark, was a semi- invalid. Rigid dieting and careful care of his ageing body have brought him through the years, a little shriveled but ac- tive and interested in life. His birthdays then included no cake like the one he is shown cutting for this year. The great

day was spent quietly with

only members of the immedi

ate family present for the fes tivities. Aside from a quiet nine sholes of golf, of which John D. had nothing to say as to score, there was no other exercise. Only after· wrgent pleading did he consent to pose for his picture.
