Peace BY Increased Navies

That the London naval limitation conference was not
a reduction affair but one stressing parity is made ap-
parent with q vengeance in the bill being drafted in the
house naval affairs committee headed by Congressman
Britten, of Illinois.
This bill will demonstrate that the outcome Of the
conference compes US to build a lot of new warcraft
Therefore, the limitations and the parity Of the confer
ence are upward limitation and upward parity.
Originally the conference was looked on as q step to-
ward permanent peace among the nations-as a dis
armament move. II it in any way promoted the cause
OF peace it did so by increasing ornaments. The thrill
of a great hope. however, Is d~issipated.
Congressman Britten's bill calls for 5000 tons OF
cruisers. 10000 tons Of destroyers. $1,000 tons of sub
marines and $1,000 tons Of aircraft carriers. Far from
being reduced. our navy is about to be expanded In a
wholesale way. The direct result of the London con-
ference Is a marked increase In our fighting strength
at sea.
This is rather disappointing, since we were led to be-
ueve' when the conference opened, that the days of big
expenditures for the navy were over. But the whole
thing couldn't have ended any other way.
Our navy is considerably below the British navy In

THE NON-SURGICAL TREATMENT
OF APPENDICITIS

OF APPENDICITIS
It is unfortunately too common for
physicians to make a snap judgment
OF appendicitis whenever there is a
severe abdominal pain, especially on
the right side. It should be remem-
bered that acute appendicitis is often
confused with such conditions as
over distension of the intestines with
gas. ovaritis. pyelitis, ulcer Of the in
testines, gall or kidney stone collie,
and intestinal obstruction. We fire.
quently here the old story repeated Of
the doctor who said to the patient,
"You are nc doubt suffering from an
acute attack of appendicitis and must
be operated on Immediately" and the
patient replied: why. Doctor, I have
already had the appendix removed
twice!"
There is not usually much publicity
given to the patients who do not get
we'll after an operation for Appendix
citis. and 1t is no doubt true that
many healthy appendices have been
removed where there was no real ne
cessity. I believe that many If the
cases which have died after an oper-
alton could have been saved if no
operation at all had been performed.
In a few cases where the appendix is
gangrenous an operation may be adj
visable, but I believe that the regime
I am about to describe can safely be
tried first and the patient will be in
a better condition to undergo the
operation if it seems necessary. I
have seen some cases where 1t was
quite apparent that the appendix had
been filled with pus and had burst
before this treatment was started, but
this was absorbed and eliminated
during the fasting regime. I have
carried some patients through several
days Of delirium while this pus was
being absorbed. but in every case the
patient got we'll. I will give you a
brief outline of the treatment which
almost identical in all of these
cases.
The first thing to do is to stop all
food Immediately, even the drinking of
water If the attack is so violent as to
produce nausea. If you do not feel
like vomiting, water should be taken,
as much as you care to drink. From
the beginning of the attack enemas
should be taken every two hours. Do
not take large enemas. Use only q
quart of water at a time. and do not
add medicinal preparations to It. The
enemas should be taken while lying

mas, but you do not need to be afraid
OF taking too many of these enemas
as there is absolutely no danger il
properly taken and with not too large
a quantity of water. If a physician
does not use an enema, this is his
mistake, and you should not be in
fluenced by it. Many physicians who
expect to operate also put ice packs
on the abdomen which has a tend
ency to ~refrigerate the pus if any ex-
lists. The best treatment that I have
found Is to do exactly the opposite
and to use very hot applications over
the entire abdomen. This encourages
a freer circulation Of blood and as
sists in draining the lymphatics in
the inflamed area. It is important
not to use the hot applications only
over the appendix, but to spread them
over the entire abdomen. A deer
probing over the region Of the in
famed appendix should not he per-
mitted, as I am sure that in many
cases the appendix has been burst
while the physician was endeavoring
to make sure Of his diagnosis.
I have the utmost confidence in the
type Of treatment which I have just
outlined, having seen it work in so
many cases, which I believe is a re-
markable proof of the healing powers
Of the body if assisted and not him
dered. This treatment has the adj
vantage Of not proving harmful, even
in cases which are unot real appen-
dicitis. and any condition Of inflam-
nation in the abdomen would be
helped by the same measures.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Eggs for Children

Question: Mrs. P. writes: "a noted
physician has advised a friend of mine
that children should not be given
eggs more than once a week, as eggs
have a tendency to promote vicious
habits in a child. I have always tried
to give my children an egg a day, and
now comes this information. Also. ]
notice in the menu of an open-air
school that few egg dishes are given.
What is your opinion Of all this?"
Answer: Eggs are undoubtedly one
Of the most valuable forms of food
from which protein or muscle build
ing material a be obtained. There
is no harm in including eggs in the
child's diet after the age of three
years when he is allowed the regular
solid food diet. The wrong kinds of
companions are responsible for this
trouble and not eggs.
Eating Sunshine
Question: H. D. writes: IF we
don't absorb enough sunshine in our
food, can we not get it by taking reg
ular sunbaths? And which way Is
the most helpful?"
Answer: The sunlight seems to have
the same effect as vitamin D. How
ever, n should also use the foods
containing the other vitamins. It is
we'll to have some sunbaths, even if
you are obtaining enough sunshine
in your foods" as sunbaths help to
keep the skin in good condition.
Removing Admissions
Question: G. H. G. asks: I'm taking
the slanting board exercises, how can
n know when the adhesions have
broken up? Will the bowels move
normally at that time?"
Answer: An X-ray examination
should be taken under the fluoro-
scope and the examining doctor
should push the intestinal organs
about to see il the adhesions have
been loosened. The bowels generally
act more normally when the adhe-
sions have been eliminated.
