It's as much to the interest OF
the other democracies as it is to
that of the United States to pre-
vent the inclusion Of Spain in Herr

A Direct Appeal

For instance, Inter-American Co.
ordlnator Nelson Rockefeller is on
a tour Of a number Of our south
erly western-hemispherical allies
and President Roosevelt says he
suggested TO young Rockefeller the
desirability OF discussing with
their various officialdoms a tenta-
TIE Pan-Arlerican plan TO aid
Spain in repairing damage suffered
In the course OF its recent civil
war-of course assuming that it
remains neutral in the current con-
fict. It'll be purely voluntary aid
from private sources, the president
explained, and he emphasized that
the suggestion by no means Is in
tended to influence the Spaniards.
II would seem as If it would be
calculated to influence EN-, never
theless. That Nelson won't fail to
mention it in the course OF his
Latin American tour is considered
a safe bet.

Chances of Silver Wedding


The chances of a silver wedding
anniversary are astonishingly
good. For bride of 26 or younger
and groom five years her senior,
the chances are 3 in 4; IL the
groom is the same age, the chances
are in 5. The chances were only
in 2 in 1890.
Nobody ought TO fail to cele-
brate the tin anniversary - the
10th year. For brides up to the
age of SO and grooms of the same
age, the chances are 9 in 10, and
also for brides up to "a if the
groom is five years older. Even
for woman who marries as late
as her 45th year the chances are
4 in 5. The bride of 45 has about
the same chance of celebrating her
silver wedding anniversary as the
bride of IS has of celebrating her
golden anniversary.
The causes ant factors which
enter into this improvement are
many. Few of us realize what
revolution in healthy living hab-
its has taken place since 1890.
Food is better, more plentiful,
more varis, due to better trans
portation and refrigeration. There
are no seasona, variations in our
food supply.
People have learned more SEN
siole eating habits. The infectious
diseases are under control. Mater
nal mortality is greatly improved

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
II. y: l. Is there any cure for
an enlarged thyr'i id gland besides
surgery? 2. Is this considered a
very serious operation, and about
how long would one be away from
work TO have it done? 3. Is there
any point in treating the nervous
and depressed condition brought
on by the goiter, or can this only
be remedied by removal of the
cauS- Of the trouble? Does this
nervous conditio gradually grow
worse until the gland is removed!
4. Is not the thyroid gland an i'm
portant organ of ones system, and
would not the removal of il impair
certain functions and thus cause
a great decrease or increase of
weight?
Answer: There are many kinds
Of enlarged thyroid glands. Some
are simple and due to lack Of
iodine in the food. take it from
what you say that yours, being
accompanied by nervousness, is OF
the type in which excessive thy
roid secretion is absorbed into the
blood. Most of these cases eventu-
ally return to normal, although
the time required is q ute long, on
the average four years. Surgical
removal in most cases causes a
rapid disappearance of symptoms.
II is considered major operation.
The entire gland is not removed,
so the worries suggested in your

There is another type Of enlarged

Judges Comply

The associated probate judges of the state have initiated themselves efforts to comply with recently-voiced request for elimination of the fee system At a meeting last week committe of judges, including WaterburyS Judge Patrick Healey, was named to consider the queS- ton and to draw up plans for uniform fees throughout the courts, as we'll as of- licial procedure, The committee may even go further than this, but whatever IS done we feel sure it will be well done.
 One of the main complaints of recent years has been the existence of too many probate districts. This would seem to be, in the main, legislative fault. It has created these districts down through the years and apparently when it was deemed necessary ol, account of the amount of business being transacted by the court. It may be of course, that many districts coul" be consolidated, but this is about as tickliSh problem to handle as dividing Connecticut up into six congressional districts instead of the present five
 Attention has been called to Massa chusetts probate court Setup where there are only IA districts and 20 judges to take care of the business transacted with in them. This naturally puts this court on a strictly district basis and doesn't permit the same personal and friendly treatment possible in courts that are purely localized. However, we feel sure that the probate committee will bring in a plan which will answer not merely com plaints, but will continue Connecticuts well-known system of handling probate problems with dignity, kindness, and human regard for the client.

Put It Into Effect

Any delay in putting nationwide gaso- line rationing plan into effect on De- cember l would be more or less regarded here in the East, where we have been working under such a system for quite some few months, as diSinclination on the part of the rest of the nation to cooperate It must be obvious by this time that gasoline can't be rationed by districts or sections. If there is to be a good job made of it, the entire nation should fall in line.
 Naturally, there aren't many of us too keen over gasoline rationing, but it has been accepted and will continue to be throughout New England. Still you can't blame motorists in this section of the country complaining that other re- gionS are not obliged to suffer similar iuconvenienceS. And if practical results are to be obtained in the way of gaSo- line economies all drivers have to be put on snort rations. Not just a crosS-sec- ton.
 Governmental agencies, hastily thrown together in recenV months, are falling down when they fail to stick to a set pattern. We have gone through period recently during which there have been 6ateS set for various activities to start only to have them cancelled and later dates established, This may be under standable, but it isn't good business, so the sooner there's some effort at regi- mentation of dates the more efficiently the nation will be put on wartime Sched- ules and will comply accordingly
