JOURNEY IN “IRON LUNG”
DEPARTURE FROM SHANGHAI. LONDON, June 6. The Shanghai correspondent of the Times says that Mr. Frederick Snite, the son of a Chicago millionaire, who is suffering from infantile paralysis and who must live in an iron respirator, has sailed for America. When he was transferred from the tender to the ship it was necessary to remove him from the iron lung for 34 minutes, during which time he was kept alive by a hand-worked respiratory machine.
