RESUSCITATING MACHINE
FOR CASES OF DROWNING OR SUFFOCATION. USE IN CHRISTCHURCH. Christchurch, September 27. A machine for resuscitating persons suffering from electric shock, drowning or suffocation will shortly be in the possession of the municipal electricity department, according to the chairman of the City Council’s Electricity Committee, Dr. H. T. J. Thacker. The chairman said that the machine, which administered oxygen to those persons exhausted by electric shock or other cause, was equipped with a gas mask and could be transported to cases of fire, drowning or electric shock. Such a machine, about the size of a suitease, was used all over the United States and Canada for smoke suffocation cases.
