Rheumatism Still Has
Doctors Mystified
By DR. MORRIs FIsHBEIN


Editor. Journal Of the American Medical Association,
and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine
For hundreds Of years doctors have been aware Of
the extent to which chr5nlc rheumatism can disable
a person. Yet they stil are tryhsg 10 discover the
cause for this condition and to find a remedy for ii.
The suggestion was made about 40 years ago that
infection Of the teeth might have something to do
with rheumatic conditions. and this idea has been
mentioned repeatedly ever since.
Yet there still are some persons suffering frc
rheumatic disease who have not been relieved OF trou-
bic when their teeth we're cleared Of all infection.
As a result. many specialists are convinced that in
lection Is not the leading cause Of rheumatism.
s
Many specialists think that faulty nutrition and
wrong diet are the most significant factors. Many
Just as responsible authorities believe that diet is not
50 important. and that correction will not prevent
chronic disorders.
Most physicians who make a speciality Of rheumatic
conditions are AIT to try a wide variety Of treatments
to keen II under control. They may use vaccines
made directly from infections in their patients bodies
or they may try v~accnes collected from other rheu-
matte sufferers.
They may apply heat to the Joints. IN the form OF
hot. baths or dry electrical methods. and these seem
70 aid IN controlling some or the serious symptoms.
Some physicians depend LARGELY on drugs which re-
lieve the pain and which seem to give the body OPP
~Dortunitv to recover.
Yet all these treatments. while they relieve a per
son. do not seem 70 Be srecifc methods for controlling
this disease.
Perhaps several factors NAV be involved IN bring
inc about the rheumatic attack. 80 that the only GER
ain method Of control NAV be determination OF the
factors RESPONSIBLE m each case and anriication of
'-eatmert directed II each one Of these factors.

RADICAL DOCTRINES

Governor Johnston, speaking at Elloree Sunday,
took occasion to flay the Share the wealth" talk
which is being heard in many quarters of the ma
ton today. He described this talk as poisonous to
the scheme of life in this country.
81 believe" said Governor Johnston, chat the
spirit of Americanism still stands high and that all
true men and women want only the chance to work,
to sacrifice to save and to build.
81 believe our people detest the thought of cring-
ing at the feet of the federal government and sup
plicating for money to live from day to day. do
not believe they approve any of the radical doc
trineS that seek to level mankind instead of to ee
vate it,
Governor Johnston will find we believe, that =
majority of the people in South Carolina will APP
prove his observations enthusiastically. He is emf
nently correct in his statement that radical doc
trines such as have been propounded during recent
months are blow at the very foundations of this
Democratic government and his statement that
American people detest the idea of cringing at the
feet of the federal government for relief funds
cannot be questioned as to its accuracy. The
American people are a proud race and those on
relief must feel that the acceptance of assistance
in this manner is repulsive.-The Anderson IS. c.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
PORTRAIT OF A SENATOR

To a country that has just seen the senate pass
the Patman bonus bill and hears the nsoent clanl-
or that threatens the opponents of that measure
the speech of Senator Glass accepting the medal OF
the National Institute of Social Sciences is as sau-
tary as it is timely. Senator Glass will not even
accept the common phrase 'public servant in Its
contemporary meaning:
"To me it was never intended to mean AFFECT
subservience to the popular will, however unln-
formed or misdirected 1 prefer to think of Unit
ed States senator as the representative of the SOW
ereigntv of his State and subject every moment to
the promptings of his own conscience and the
preservation of his own intellectual integrity.
"The Senator learned long ago, indeed, l did
not have to learn it is self-evident proposition
that the public man who permits himself to pause
long enough to inquire whether thing is popular
or unpopular, instead of seeking to know whether
it is right or wrong is not only useless but danger
Gus to his country He is a coward to begin with
and menace always"
Senator GLASS; whole public career has been
framed on this model. His public life is the real
ization of his words.
His name is written in momentous legislation:
it is his greatest achievement that he has beeen
faithful to his high conception of the duty of a
Senator He goes his way, unmoved by threats,
careless of popularity. He is a free man and SEN
ator subservient neither to the Administration nor
to the manufactured 'pubc opinion of herds Of
self-seekers. His qualities recognized and re-
spected. 1t may be doubted if any public man of
today stands higher in general estimation. His I'M
bending irmness of purpose is appreciated even
in the Senate where he is one of the few specimens
of what a Senator should be.-New York Times.
