Your Health
by DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

ONE of the most common injuries in daily life.
~ and even more so in such games as football,
basketball and soccer, is a bruise or muscle tear.
Such injury occurs anywhere on the body but is
most commonly seen on the thighs which are likely to
be injured in blocking.
When severe bump of the muscles Of the thigh
takes place. there may be tearing of the muscle,
with a large amount of hemorrhage into the tissues.
The first thing do under such circumstances is to
put some pressure to control the bleeding and to
apply cold.
be applied or an adhesive bandage, as a circular
dressing. This will continue the pressure and also
help to sustain weight.
A FIRM bandage gives support and may be left
n IN place for several weeks, if it is sufficiently
waterproof to withstand bathing After the first
effects of the injury have subsidized heat may be
applied aid absorption Of the blood and to promote
healing.
Another type of injury that is very common is
the pulling and tearing Of ligaments around the
joints.
The most important step in treatment Of such in
juries is complete rest, obtained by immoblizng the
jont-sometines by use Of plaster cast, sometimes
by strapping with adhesive tape.
THE knee joint is the one most likely to be in
4 jured in the majority Of games particularly in
football In most cases the blow on the knee takes
place on the outer side. In this position the lower
leg acts a lever, which TO tear the carti-
lagos around the knee joint.
In injuries of the knee joint, also hxation of the
Joint in the correct position is of greatest Importance
Sprains of the ankle joint also exceedingly
common 1t is not advisable to wait until all swelling
goes down before applying firm bandage or dress
ing. 1t is usually believed best to apply tight
strapping before the swelling comes up.
A sprain of the ankle may be bandaged with the
foot in the proper position, using adhesive straps.
This type Of strappng should never be done except
by one who understands thoroughly the mechanics
of the joint and the nature Of the injury to the
tissu-s.

Possibly the very same day she came home our

OF course. I will be called to task by those who
say that it isn't criticism to which our government
objects only the advocacy of violent revolution
don't see the distinction. If man says you ought
to have revolution I call that form of criticism
There's no use in kidding ourselves about human
nature. When an individual says. I welcome the
fullest and the frankast kind of criticism he really
means that he hopes TO get a pat on the back
There is a point where frankneSs seems punch in

viduals.

OF this group, some are not in

I felt that there was a wall be-
tween us. I tried to understand
their problems, their experiences,
and their attitude to the future.
But 1 was living in a reasonably
secure world and they faced daily
insecurity.
So, to learn their side of it, !
threw the job overheard, and
started out as a wanderer and
hitch-hiker. I covered six states
in as many months-Florida, Ala
5ama, Tennessee, Louisiana, Vir-
GINA and Pennsylvania-besides
the District Of Columbia.
CMALL towns and large cities,
- Some with sound and fury
that looked like prosperity once
more, some like dried-ups ponds.
In Alabama, sawmill towns
where the mills no longer hum
med-turpentine regions where
the trees were dead or cut down.
In Virginia, mining towns where
the mines were inactive and the
people half starved.
In Florida, fruit and farm dis
tricts where farmers couldn't stake
themselves to fertilizer and other
necessities for a crop. In Tennes-
see and Alabama again, ditto.
On the other hand, in some tex
tile and lumber and steel centers,
the wheels of industry seemed to
be going on as they did in 1929.
In big towns and little towns
and in the country I talked to
every one 1 met. Housewives, bust
nesSmen, farmers, policemen,
newsboys, ministers and mer-
chants.
VXTHAT 1 found out was, first,
w that people seem to be living
in 1884 in two worlds. The first,
composed largely of those who
still have jobs and whose bust
nesses have not been swept away,
seem to believe that this country
is out of the red, that with a lit
tie time and patience we will
