OCTORS are fighting a desperate battle in St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London, for a young man's

Twenty-one-years-old "Wally" Salth, of Maidenhead, Berkshire, suffers from kæmophilia (bleeding)—which means Incessant hemorrhage when the skin is broken,

Count Covadonga, son of ex-King Alfonso of Spain, is a victim of the une trouble.

Mr. Smith wanted to have a tooth out, but his parents refused their consent, knowing that two members of the family had lost their lives through humophilia.

As soon as he came of age, Mr. Smith decided to take the 50-50 chance his doctors held out to him.

A week ago one tooth was extracted, and the hemorrhage had not ceased up to yesterday, when his mother was summoned to the hospital to give a blood transfusion.

Mr. Smith's father said last night: "We knew that when he reads, news and darns daily. She attained his majority my son would take the matter into his own has never had a serious liness or hands. He has done so, and we are anxiously waiting for better suffered from toothache. United news."

You, too, can have them if you know

this secret about removing film

Brushing with ordinary dentifrices can never give you the gleaming white teeth you envy. Only brushing with an effective film-removing dentifrice can do that. For film is the sticky, gummy coating that forms on teeth, obscures their natural beauty. Even worse, it glues to teeth the germs and acids associated with tooth decay. You must remove that films. That's why we urge you to wa Pepsodent, the special film-removing tooth paste. For Pepso- dent contains a cleansing and polishing sub- stance that is unexcelled in removing film from

like commercial aviation and many other industries, it can by changed almost overnight into a

war time basis.

Even on the peace time basis on which the Japanese chemical indu try is now operating, the report of the Institute of Pacific Relations re veals that already a goodly portion of the output of the industry is absorbed by Japan's ever increasing ormy and naval needs.

At the present. the report finds. Japan's chemical industry is only surpassed by that of Germany, the United States and Rustin, It is al- ready elossed as equal to that of Great Britain and to be ahead of thit of both France and Italy.

BIG WORKS

This development of Japan's chemical industry is in full keeping with the astounding expansion she Ens made along other fines, both in industries ke the textile that gaVE

nese themselves insist to their

only objective,

The report of the Institute of Pacifle Reintions finds there is only one weakness in the Japanese chemleat Industry-the absence of my trust or central control like the Du Pont interests in the United States that might develop it to fullest capacity. The industry, great as it is, in operated largely as auxi tries of the larger industrial con- cerns of the country. The organi sation of the whole industry into t single 'trust, the report udimita, would be little less than formidable,

Since 1830, the Institute's report discloses, Japan has increased her monthly output of sulphur 269 per rent.. of caustic soda 238 per cent. and of sulphate of ammonia 387 per cent.

"As long as the armament boom in Jupan lasts," the report

states, "chemicals are utilized at home, directly or indirectly, in the many goods the army and nays require. But if the Japanese textiles are blocked from the world markets, or if the armament boom slackens, Japar's chemical Industries form a kind of reassurance for Japanese! foreign trade just as the Iron and steel industry does.'

The Institute of Pacific Relations is of the opinion that if out of the many auxillary concerns now en- gaged in the chemical Industry, a Single trust organizer should even- tually emerge, it is likely the 'Mit- subishi will be the first in the field. The power of this conecrn it is sala, is more far-reaching than the figures of its various companies reveal.

According to the Institulo's find- ings. Japanese chemistry shows promise of more than making up for lost time. However, as 11 is still operating on a purely peace time basis, and the army and navy pro- vide an outlet for a goodly part of its production, the Institute there is evidence that the western industrial nations are beginning to defend their old markets in the Far East by undercutting the prices of the Japanese companies.

SUSPENDED

UNION MOVE IN FILMLAND

New York, Nov. 10. Possibly na a preliminary to a renewal of the drive to "Unlonise" the film industry, the Actors' Equity Association has announced the in- definite suspension of 24 of its mem- bors for fallure to join the Screen Actors' Guild.

Lionel Such prominent stars as Barrymore, Allce

Jack Brady, Onkle, and Erle Linden find them- selves unable to work in any Equity production, since Equity membera may not work with non-members.

The action has had no immediate effect on the suspended star, not but it bampering their flim work,

would prevent their appearance in the legitimate theatre, in which Equity's position is so powerful that producers would decline to ukgage non-members.

Equity spent n large sum in on abortive elfort, to "Unionise" ilm stars in 1929, and has since been biding its time, slowly but steadily strengthening Its stand in the film
