Infected Tonsils May Cause Other
Ailments; Should Be Removed
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor, Journal Of the American
Medical Association, and Of
Hygeia, the Health Magazine

It has not been proved that re-
moval OF infected tonsils early In
youth will invariably prevent heart
disease, infected joints, or other
manifestations. We know. however.
that such ailments may result from
infected teeth Or from infections
elsewhere in the body. 1t has been
proved that infected tonsils result
in such secondary complications
sufficiently often 10 make their re-
moyal desirable when infection oc-

Children who have large tonsils
or have had diphtheria germs In
their throats after they have re-

lessons the danger Of spreading
,diphtheria.
Some IS years ago, 1000 children
in Rochester, NJ. T., had their ton
sis removed when they were 5 or 8
years old. Careful records we're kept
OF these children and OF 1000 other
children OF the same age who did
not have their tonsils removed at
that time.
/. A recent comparison showed that
sore throat did not occur as fire.
Quently OR as severely in the chill
dren who had their tonsils re-
moved as In those who did not. And
the children without tonsils had
fewer colds than the others. 1t was

quent In those with tonsils than
in those without.
This evidence should indicate
quite certainly the importance Of
having tonsils removed when they
are infected or enlarged. 1t Is not,
however, sufficient TO warrant re-
moyal Of tonsils whether or not
they are diseased.
Tonsil operations have been 70
perfected that they are now con-

Clarifying
Yourself
Nv Alicia Hart
BY Alicia Hart

The girls who rose TO stardom In
1886 are proof enough that natural
ness is the keynote OF beauty. Some
of them are looking, OF
course, but they were born that way
not made over by makeup men
and hairdressers. Generally speak
ing, however, the favored few are
the healthy, wholesome schoolgirl
type rather than ultra sophisticated,
vampish looking as were Theda
gara and other fayorites Of her
time.
Sinone Simon. the little French
girl who has been such q sensa-
tional success during the past IL
months. Is supposed 10 have sex
appeal plus, but hers Is winsome-
ly reticent. almost fragile kind Of
allure. She Is slender as a reed
and has interesting. slanting eyes,
yet Is a far cry from the out and
ont, half-staryed- looking sex-appeal
girl OF few years ago.
Blond Coed shines
Frances Farmer, another young
beauty, with blond hair which
shimmers because 1t has been
brushed and cared for properly, and
skin that looks fresh and glowing,
also became star In 1895. A few
years ago, Frances was usherinE In
a theater In Seattle TO earn money
tn get through the University of
Washington. Then she won a pop
ularity contest, the prize for which
was a screen test. Since then she's
been in many pictures, and attained
real stardom during the past year.
A motion picture scout saw Luise
Rainer, another 1895 headliner, on
the stage In Vienna and brought
her To this country 10 become an
important star. Dark, elfin- like, with
closely cropped hair, generally wind
blown. and sparkling eyes. she IL
FIVE feet four inches tall, weighs
lis pounds. She swins, plays ten
mis-. plays the plano. sings and
dances.
Olivia de HaviIland Is the fresh,
American schoolgirl type. Her soft
brown hair, not dyed or tinted or
arranged In any strange theatrical
manner, is shiny and glossy. Her
eyebrows do not straggle down over
her lids, Of course, nor are they
tweezed into thin, unnatural-look-
ing lines. She wears powder 10

face with soap and water twice a

It followed by only few hours 8 Brit ish protest against the killing of three British soldiers in the Shan ghai area, for which the Japanese were blamed. Other British pro- tests in recent weeks have included diplomatic exchanges between the two countries over the action of Japanese airplanes in firing at au- tomobiles flying union jacks and bearing members of the British con- sular corps in the Far East. The British ambassador to China was gravely wounded in one of these incidents.
 The council has no official stand ing. In addition to members of the diet, important industrialists and business men are members of the council. Shingo Tsuda, president of the Kanegafuchi Spinning com pany, is a member. The council discusses international and domes- tic problems and often publishes it's resolutions. It is similar, but less extensively, to the New York cotin- ell on foreign relations and the commonwealth club of San Fran cisco. q

 Shanghai, October 0. - (UP)- One hundred and fifty Chinese Of the doomed battalion" were spoil ing for 8 fig.4t today even while the Japanese mobilized their resources to wipe them out to the last man.
 Intermittent machine gun fire from Japanese nests popped against the walls of their fortified ware houses where they have sworn to die rather than surrender. Every now and then the fire halted, and, apparently for no other purpose than to taunt the Japanese into ex- pending more ammunition, a hand grenade would sail up from the roof in d high arc and explode near the Japanese gunners.
 The Central (Chinese) News Agency published letter by regl- mental commander, Hsieh Chin Yuan, leader of the doomed bat talion," to General Sun Yuan-Liang, commander of the 88th division, in which he declared that death is not the important issue, but we wish to inform you before our mission is accomplished that we do not make out sacrifices lightly"

The council adopted a resolution blaming the British government for complicating international relations in connection with the Chinese si- tuation. It branded the British at- titude greatly regrettable." The council charged that since the out set of the incident" with China. the British have assisted the Chinese through anti-Japanese actions. Terming alleged British assistance to the Chinese an improper third power attitude" the council resolu- tion also charged Britain with re- sponsibility for convocation of the nine-power conference at Brussels Nov. 3, thereby fostering interna- tional intervention" t@
 The council warned that unless Britain ''reconsiders it's improper attitude" Japan may be forced to take certain steps of Grave deter mination" against Britain, despite the ''deep friendship" existent be- tween the two countries for the past 60 years.

DUKE, DUCHESS
 AT HOLLYWOOD
Movie Colony Has Invited Them to Play Santa
 Claus There

Hollywood, Oct. 30-(UP)-Holly- wood invited the Duke and Duchess of Windsor to play Santa Claus for the film colony today, and at the same time it was rumored that the king of Egypt might be coming.
 The Chamber of Commerce in- vited the Windsors to be here the night of Nov. 27 and officially turn on the lights of Santa Claus Lane, which is Hollywood boulevard dec- ated with Christmas trees for the holidays.
 The Windsors reportedly have Hollywood on the itinerary of their American tour, ard the chamber of commerce pointed out that this "of- fers a distinctive opportunity" to make their first appearance here. They'll even change the date, the chamber advised, and let the duke turn on the lights any night, bar ring Sundays, between Nov. 27 and Christmas.
 Word that young King Farouk of Egypt may come here was re- ceived by Alexander Darcy, actor. The king said he wished to visit Southern California after his mar riage in January. E'Arcy met the king in school in Switzerland.

 Dean, 1t was alleged, received $930 from an insurance policy in August while he was receiving @ state pen- sion. The money, investigators claimed, was first placed in 8 bank under his name, later put in joint account with. Mrs. Bourbon and finally transferred to another bank under Mrs. Bourdon's name.

local Br1a1Sh OFFICIALS came as the Japanese warned British and Amer ican military commanders that a mass assault on the some 150 Chi nese Dare-to-die soldiers, holding out for the third straight day in their fortified warehouses across Soochow Creek from the International Set clement, was imminent. The warn- ing was sent, presumably, so that foreign troops could take cover and avoid the fate of the British soldiers.
 As the Japanese attack started, the United States Marine defense zone on the south bank of Soochow Creek was endangered. The Brit isla Fusiliers retired to the bank of China building across Yuyaching road as the first half dozen trench mortar shots whistled from the Jap anese lines three blocks from the ncrth bank of the Creek. The nor tays were in such position that If tte shots got off the range they could fly over the Creek into the U. s. lines.
 Japs Supreme Effort
 The Japanese were massing men and artillery, apparently for a su- prenne effort to wipe out the death battalion of Chinese who have sworn to die rather than surrender, pro- viding an example inflaming all Chinese. Plentifully armed with hand grenades. and. machine guns they awaited calmly for the assault.
 Across the Creek from them were the comrades of the three Ulster
