the Roentgen radio-graphy should determine the situation,and hence the treatment. The authorrefers to a case in which the bullet hadnot even penetrated the skull, but layoutside it. Properties of Becquerel Rays.Stewart. Phys. Rev., April.—A summa-ry of the present state of our knowledgeon the subject, and its bearings on thesubject of x-rays. He concludes thatthere can be no doubt that they are trans-verse ether rays ; transmission by metalsindicates that the wave lengths must beshorter than that of any ultra violet ravswhich have been obtained from any lightsource. Like x-rays, they are not hom-ogeneous ; the similarity between thetwo rays is very striking, the principaldifference being the absence of any re-flection or refraction of x-rays ; thisleads to the conclusion that x-rays arealso transverse waves shorter than Bec-querel rays ; the similarity of both pre-sents a strong argument in favor of thetheory that x-rays are short, transverseether waves.

THE AMERICAN X-RAY JOURNAL. 357 THE X-RAY DIAGNOSIS IN CHILDREN. A. V L, BROKAW, M I). The science of radiography and fluor-oscopy in its application to children isof extraordinary value ; the scope, util-ity and application being as wide as inthe adult. By reason of the allegedharmful effects, and believing the moredelicate organism of the child to be sus-ceptible to a greater degree to the unto-ward influence of the new form of radia-tion, many surgeons have been deterredfrom the frequent use of x-rays in chil-dren. That such is the opinion of manyis a matter of regret. I feel quite confi-dent that this reasoning will not be sus-tained after a further consideration ofthe subject. After large experience, Ican but come to the conclusion that theadaptation of this discovery merits awider application and more general usethan is at present in evidence. Thedanger of burns and deep-seated tissuedegeneration has been reduced to a fac-tor so slight that it does not merit thedignity of very s
The American X-Ray Journal was the first radiology journal in the United States. Its first issue was published in May 1897, its founder and first editor was an American physician Heber Robarts (1852–1922), who took an early keen interest in the new Roentgen rays. Robarts was also a co-founder of the Roentgen Society of the United States, the forerunner of the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS). In its earliest days the journal struggled to attract any important articles as the majority of the pioneering researchers in the fledgling field of x-rays would prefer to see their work published in the established medical journals. The initial subscription rate for the new journal was one dollar per annum (payable in advance) or two dollars for overseas subscribers. Alternatively, it was ten cents per issue, or twenty cents for readers outside the US. In 1902, Harry Preston Pratt, an American physician from Chicago with an interest in electrotherapy, purchased the American X-Ray Journal from Dr Robarts. In 1904, the American X-Ray Journal subsumed the Archives of Electrology and Radiology (which had previously been the American Electro-Therapeutic and X-Ray Era). Following this, the journal was re-named and re-focussed as the American Journal of Progressive Therapeutics, and this published its last edition in January 1906.
