Application oP therapeutic sleep in combination with V. Viahnevskiy's closed method of treating burns will imgrove results obtained after evactuiflon of burne3 patients ands war conditions. Professor A. A. Viahnevakiy: in regard to I. Ya. Vchitel's repart, one may point out that sleep and narcosis are not the same thing. fiarcosia al- ways interferes r:ith the activity of cells and reduces the reaiatance oY the organism, while sleep strengthens the organism and improves the functioning of .nerve cells. The difference between sleep and narcosis ie clearly seen in immunological reactions: narroais suppresses immunobiological reactions, while sleep reiaforcea them, As far. ss allergic reactions are concerned, the offer.+,a of sleep and narcosis are similar: both sup~ess allergic reactions. Therapeutic sleep will prove to be of importance to military medicine. In the treatment of wounded, it will prevent secondary ahocK and 8.1~y infection, more effectively so if supplemented by treatment with penicillin. Ia other words, a-tificial stabilization of the cond3:aon of wounded for dsfini_tn periods of time will be achievoi, "Penicillin and Its ~fi'ect on the Course of Inflamm:tlou Processes,," Prof V. Ya.

We have previously established that novocain prevents ee- perimentsl shock produced by the in,7ection of histamine into doge. In the series of experiments varrie,i out at nreaent?, we foun3 that paraaTinobenzoi.c acid ease-ts a similar antihistaminic effect. paranminobenzoic ncid derived from novocain ie somewhat more effective than on administration by itself in the form of a pure substance. Our elate eliminates the possibility that par9,- aminobeazoic acid may enter into a chemicni reaction with histamine: its action is undoubtedly that of a neurogenic e$eut exerting its effect on the peripheral and central nervous system.
