Strolling one day past the ros-
trum where sat Senator George
Moses of New Hampshire, presi-
dent pro tenn, the Michigan Sem
ator was addressed by that Sena-
torial wag as "Kemal Pasha."
The name stuck for quite time.
TT reveals something of the grow
L ing stature of Vandenberg, of
the respect and favor which he
has gained from his colleagues in
the intervening years, that he was
selected as his party's candidate
for president pro tenn, to succeed
the defeated Moses, when the
Democrats took over at the open
ing of the seventy-third Congress.
1t was an empty honor, but a
tribute.
1t also was final vindication, in
a way, for the Michigan Senator's
attempt to clip the wings of the
reactionary Moses for the insult
he offered to the western insur-
gent Republicans led by George w.
Norris of Nebraska.
At dinner here to New Eng
land business men, Moses referred
to the western irregularS as sons
of the wild jackass." The riled
insurgents started public back
fire in the Senate that cracked
for days. The party was split wide
open with phrase.
Resentful of Moses supercilious-
ness, Vandenberg gathered the

Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FIsHBEIN.

THE operating table today is much less dreaded
by persons suffering from serious ailments, be-
cause of the remarkable progress surgery has made
in the last quarter century Extent of this progress
has Just been reviewed by Sir Cuthbert Wallace
consulting surgeon to st. Thomas hospital in Eng
land.
Twenty-Five years ago. Sir Cuthbert recalls, sur
geons wrote a great deal about results in operating
on ulcers of the stomach and duodenum. Since
then so much has been learned about the nature Of
these ulcers that surgeons advise their patients to
try any of various medical treatments before under
going some of the difficult surgical operations.
In 1910 a great deal of attention was paid to re-
placing organs within the abdomen that were sup
posed to be loose dropped. Today less Importance
is attached to such loosenings or displacements.
THE most tremendous advancement has been in
i the growth of orthopedic surgery Formerly this
type of surgery confined itself to making crooked
child straight and giving the child better use of its
limbs
Since the World War, this type of surgery has
vastly increased its scope including now the treat
ment of fractures pains in the back re-educaton OF
those who have been injured, and particularly treat
ment of surgical tuberculosis. From it has come
mechanical surgery such involved in lengthen-
ing of limbs, grating of bones, Strengthening OF
spines and similar plastic operations.
The World War gave to the world the fuller de-
velopment of plastic surgery which involves the re-
making of human tissues to create more normal APP
pearances.
TN 1909 surgeons were still exceedingly careful
about invading the chest. Today surgeons in
wade the chest with impunity and, as have already
pointed out in these columns. have even removed
complete lungs because of the presence Of malignant
growths.
The most interesting aspect of modern surgery is
the new operations on the sympathetic nervous sys-
tenn These operations are made for disturbances OF
heart disturbances of blood supply to various parts
of the body, and for high blood pressure ana
similar disorders.
Tremendous advances also have been made IN
anesthesia during the last quarter century. Wnen
ether. chloroform, and ntrous-oxide we're nrst an
nounced they we're welcomed as tremendous boon
to humanity
Yet today numerous snesthetics are available Ior
all sorts of purposes and the chief duty OF the pny
sjcian-elimination of pair-is now within reach OF
of every competent surgeon.

1T was a depression, that of 1898,
Il which showed Vandenberg out
into world of reality. That de-
bacle swept away his fathers har-
ness business and young Vanden-
berg, then 8, began to sell news
papers. For the next few years
he was an odd-job youngster after
school hours.
He graduated from the Grand
Rapids High School, where he won
some fame as a debater, and at
tended the University of Michigan
for two years. Then he plunged
into Journalism as an Office boy
on the Grand Rapids Herald.
His entire newspaper career was
on that publication. The only
break was when he left for a time
to work on Golfers Magazine. In
1907, at the early age of %, ne be-
came editor and general manager
OF the Herald when it was bought
by Senator William Alden Smith.
In 1919 he became president OF
the Herald Publishing Co. He left
Journalism in 1928 when the pa
per was sold to the Federated
Publications, Inc.
Senator Vandenberg is a deeply
rooted individual. AS he spent his
whole Journalistic career on one
newspaper, so he lives today in a
house only two blocks from his
birthplace in Grand Rapids,
Politics enlisted his eager inter-
est at an early age. AS a young
ster he was chosen secretary Of
the Kent County Republican Com
mittee. in which capacity he
served for several years. At %
he became a member of the Re-
publican State Central Committee,
continuing for six years. In 1916
and in 1923 he was chairman of
the Republican Partys state con-
vention.
He is a member of the Congre-
gational Church, a Mason and
Shriner, and belongs to the Elks
and the Woodmen of the World.
He has been married twice and
has three children by his first
marriage in 1908 to Elizabeth Wat
son, who died in 1915. He mar
ried Hazel H. Whitaker in 1918.
Next-Frank Knox of Chicago.

HEALTH APPROPRIATION
INCREASE ADVOCATED
Social Hygiene Society Urges
Prompt Consideration by
Senate Group.

Ohicially favoring increased appro-
priations for public health in Wash
ington, the District Social Hygiene
Society at its meeting yesterday urged
prompt consideration of this appro-
priation by the Senate Subcommittee
on Appropriations.
"It has been demonstrated that
public health is purchaseable," said
the society's Committee on Medical
Measures and Legislation, "but the
District cannot expect a well-rounded
health program at an expenditure of
rs cents per capita, the present
budget appropriation"
The committees resolution further
cited Washington's high records of
tuberculosis, social diseases and in
FAINT mortality, together with the lack
of adequate medical, nursing, social
and public health information service.
