ABSTRACT This article analyzes the poster contest created by the Vargas Government in 1943 to encourage the population to buy war bonds. These bonds were sold with the intention of raising the money necessary to finance the costs of Brazil’s participation in World War II. In the context of the world conflict, the intense mobilization of civil society was essential to obtaining victory. The objective is to accompany the work of the judging committee of the contest, investigating the decisions made by them, what were the themes of the winning posters, what aspects they sought to highlight and what relationship they maintained with the political and cultural ideology of the Vargas administration. To achieve this goal, we will use the following sources: magazines and newspapers deposited in the National Library and photographs preserved in the National Archives.

RESUMO Este artigo analisa o concurso de cartazes criado pelo Governo Vargas, em 1943, para estimular a população a comprar os chamados bônus de guerra. Tais títulos públicos, já utilizados em outros países, foram vendidos com a intenção de arrecadar o dinheiro necessário para financiar os custos da participação do Brasil, ao lado dos Aliados, na Segunda Guerra. No contexto do conflito mundial, a mobilização intensa da sociedade civil tornava-se essencial à obtenção da vitória. O objetivo é o de acompanhar o trabalho da comissão julgadora do certame, investigando as decisões tomadas por ela, quais os temas dos cartazes vencedores, quais aspectos eles procuraram ressaltar e qual a relação que mantiveram com o ideário político-cultural da administração varguista. Para alcançá-lo, são utilizadas as seguintes fontes: revistas e jornais depositados na Biblioteca Nacional e fotografias preservadas no Arquivo Nacional.

RESUMO Este artigo analisa a experiência inicial de produção editorial estatal do governo Vargas (1930-1945). O foco está voltado para a atuação do Departamento de Propaganda e Difusão Cultural (DPDC)/Departamento Nacional de Propaganda (DNP), primeiro órgão de publicidade política da década de 1930 a investir em publicações. O objetivo principal é fazer um levantamento minucioso, nos acervos de arquivos e bibliotecas, do conjunto de folhetos, livros e revistas editado especificamente pelo DPDC/DNP, algo não realizado por trabalhos anteriores. Como resultado, identificamos 88 títulos distintos, o que representa, aproximadamente, 81% de tudo o que esse departamento produziu.

ABSTRACT This article analyzes the Vargas government’s initial experience of state editorial production (1930-1945). The focus is on the work of the Department of Propaganda and Cultural Diffusion (DPDC)/National Department of Propaganda (DNP), the first political advertising agency of the 1930s to invest in publications. The main objective is to make a detailed mapping, in the archives and libraries collections, of the set of leaflets, books and magazines edited specifically by DPDC/DNP, something not accomplished by previous researches. As a result, it was possible to identify 88 different titles, representing approximately 81% of everything that this department produced.

BACKGROUND: Several studies have shown that stress and emotional reactions can affect immune responses in animals and humans. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate hematological and immunological effects of stress on air traffic controllers. METHODS: Thirty air traffic controllers and 15 aeronautical information service operators were evaluated. The groups were divided as information service operators with 10 years or more of experience (AIS>10) and with less than 10 years in the profession (AIS<10) and air traffic controllers with 10 years or more of experience (ATCo>10) and with less than 10 years in the profession (ATCo<10). Blood samples were drawn at 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. The paired t-test was used to compare monocyte and nitric oxide concentrations and ANOVA was used for the other parameters. RESULTS: The ATCo>10 group presented a significantly lower phagocytosis rate of monocytes at 2:00 p.m. compared to 8:00 a.m. Moreover, the ATCo>10 group presented lower hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, platelet and leukocyte levels, and increased cortisol concentrations at 8:00 a.m. compared to the other groups. Additionally, this group had lower phagocytosis rate of monocytes, and hemoglobin, platelet, leukocyte, basophils and nitric oxide levels at 2:00 p.m. compared to the other groups. CONCLUSION: Stress seems to greatly affect immune responses of air traffic controllers with more than ten years of experience.
