"MAN IN IRON LUNG"
PEKING, March 9.
"The Man in an Iron Lung," Frederick Snite, son of a Chicago millionaire, who has been confined in a gigantic automatic respirator at the Rockefeller Hospital for a year, is expected to leave for America soon. He was stricken with infantile paralysis during a world tour, and was unable to breathe five minutes outside the machine. Special nurses and doctors will supervise the complicated arrangements for the voyage.
