Grief = Within the official fam
lily fold. as has been reported here
from time TO time. FDR is being
somewhat hamstrung by conflicting
ambitions OF his subordinates.
The Federal Trade Commission
and the badly stalled NRA are at
odds over jurisdiction. AAA still is
in an undercover turmoil which Sec
rotary Of Agriculture Wallace's move
IN tossing out half a dozen Young
Liberals sponsored by Undersecre-
tary Rex Tugwell failed TO remedy
much. Secretary Of State Hull
seems to have smothered Special
Trade Adviser George Peek on the
question Of how foreign trade agree
ments should be negotiated, but
Peek Is still trying. There Is acute
jealousy among various OF the
emergency chiefs ms to which will

impending $4.880.0 900. 900 work-relief

Child's Ears Impaired
By Cold or Disease
BY DIR. ORR Il
Editor. Journal Of the American Medical Association.
and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine

Children who do not hear well usually suffered
previously from certain types Of complaints. or we're
born with defective hearing.
A child with defective hearing has great difficulty
in adapting itself to conditions Of daily life. 1t is
likely to develop a sense Of inferiority and depres-
sion.
The common cold is probably the most prominent
causes OF defective hearing. You know the manner
in which hearing is dulled by a severe cold. This is
usually due TO a swelling Inflammation Of the tube
which passes from the nose to the ear. After a
real infection is set up in the ear, permanent damage
may result.
Before they are u years old, children acquire in
fections Of the ear more easily than do grown-up
persons. The reason is that the lymphoid structures
in nose and throat are greater in amount and become
infected more easily.
Certain types Of infection; namely those with the
virulent germs called streptococci, are more likely
to damage the ears than others. Whenever a child
has repeated colds. with enlarged adenoids and with
difficulty in breathing through the nose. infection Of
the ear is extremely likely. For this reason the spe-
cialist in diseases OF nose and throat may recon-
mend early removal Of adepoids as a means Of pro-
tecting the child against frequent infections in the
ear.
Removal OF the tonsils and adenoids at the right
time Is an exceedingly important factor in securing
a successful result. The operation should not be
done IN the presence OF an active infection, and IL
should not be done when the child is greatly run
down.
After the operation the child should be kept in
bed for at least two 70 four days and, II recovery is
not rapid enough, even longer.
Many cases Of defective hearing in children are
associated with common infectious diseases like mea-
sles. mumps, scarlet fever. and whooping cough.
@L.Ya--- - 49,. - .z--N. - S.-1sl ---n@.
ed usually suffer less from complications affecting
the ear In the presence Of these infectious diseases.
OF practical Importance also in prevention Of deaf
ness is control Of habits during swimming. The child
with a cold should not be permitted to engage In
swimming. Violent blowing Of the nose after swim
ming may be serious.
Children should not be permitted TO swim more
than IS or 20 minutes at a time. II they have 4 ten
dency to have trouble with the ears. they should never
be allowed TO practice diving.
The child who complains Of defective hearing or
fullneS in the head after swimming should give up
this sport, because that is natures way Of warning
him in advance OF trouble.

members OF President RooSevelts
own political party rapidly are fash
Joining for him a hair shirt somewhat
similar in design to the one Herbert
Hoover scratched bitterly under a
few a back.
About two months ago politicians
Of every hue craWled into blind al
leys for a recapitulation. They sens
ed numbly something had broken the
high wave OF Roosevelt popularity
but they weren't quite sure. An i'm
preSsiye number are emerging with
what they think is the anSwer. They
aren't ready yet TO make a biz bet
on the correctness OF their diagnosis
but they are laying quiet wagers IN
the winter books.
The New Deal. they think Is SUI
fering from internal hemorrhageS.
Rebels 80 A survey OF recent leg
islative votes and a canvass Of i'm
portant offices on Capitol Hill make
il obvious that blind following OF
President Roosevelt is a thing OF the
past. His legislative program goes
under the microscope at every point
with vivisection a distinct posi-
bility.
Gradual cooling Of public ardor
for the New Deal has been a vital
factor IN the political change. Even
the most timid democrats IN con-
gress are threatening from under
their mufflers they won't jump
through the hoop much longer. They
indicate they are getting Dutch cOur-
age In every delivery Of mail from
their constituents.
The New Deal machinery itself Is
creaking IN many spots. Roosevelt
Subordinates are making a tug-o'-
war out OF the football game which
FDR has been trying to quarterback
TO victory.

emy NO. ! 50 far as the white house
Is concerned is Senator Huey Long.

to confidential reports from New

next presidential election.
1t will be three years this coming
June since Long led a contested
delegation to the Chicago conven-
ton for Roosevelt, got ii seated and
promptly became a chief lieutenant
Of the cause.
Today Long is running himself
for president. Men who have sifted
through the country in the past few
weeks say he might easily take
enough left-wing strength from Mr..
Roosevelt to toss the election 10
the republicans. The big gamble is
whether Huey has touched off his
Skyrocket too early.

ate.
Democratic senators no longer are

Maybe he will and maybe he
won't, but you can depend on one
thing-Dizzy's got the same spirit
