Aspirin Won't Cure a Cold,
But II Will Bring Relief
BY DIR. LOGAN CLENDENING

much relief can be obtained
from them.
MO MATTER what causes a
~ cold-what particular kind
of a germ-the effect is an In
flammation of the mucous men,
brane of the nose, the throat
and later on Of the bronchial
tubes. 4
The mucous membrane Of the
nose Is very thick and spongy
and has the possibility of SWELL
ing UP to five or six times Its
normal thickness unfer the in
fammation.
This gives that feeling OF
STIFFNESS in the head.
The inflammation of the mu-
cous membrane o, the throat
gives the feeling of rawness of
the throat and later on when the
bronchial tubes are affected,
there is a feeling OF tightness
and rawness in the chest.
But this is not all: along with
this go the symptoms of a gen.
eralized infection-flashes of hot
and cold, achey feelings in the
muscles, joint pains, loss of APP
petite, mental depression, the
general conclusion that the
world is against you.
Nov II is possible 10 obtain
~ some relief from these
symptoms although the treat
ment does not ecessarily
shorten the course of the dis
ease.
Let us look at some medicinal
remedies suggested.
First aspirin, which Is prob
ably the favorite and the first
suggested remedy nowadays.
Aspirin belongs to the group
Of salicylates and according to
the best modern pharmacology
that I cap find, these scientific
authors ascribe the following
properties 10 aspirin: II is mildly
bactericidaf, which means that il
has a mild effect on killing off
germs of any kind.
TT DEFINITELY relieves pain.
Il especially of headache and of
the joints and of the muscles, by
a central action on the nervous
sytem, so il does not make any
difference what causes the pain
or discomfort, IL will be relieved
just the same by aspirin.
Now all OF these things plainly
indicate that aspirin deserves its
reputation in the treatment of a
cold.
Checking the symptoms as
given above and the effects of
aspirin, IL will be seen that il re-
lieves the symptoms but il GER
tainly does not cure the cold.
In DR.. Wesley w. Spink's book
published in 1912 on the sulfa
drugs, such as sulfonamide, he
has made a list of the diseases
Tor which the drugs are no good.

hope this will be a terrible
lesson.
These drugs are 10 the fore in
every ones imagination now. so
the pressure on the doctor to
give one for a cold is great.
But remember, they all have
disagreeable side effects.
They make you feel like the
dickens for days.
That is all right II you have a
serious disease like pneumonia.
but you don't want to submit
yourself to this lust for a cold.

Murray Says
Lewis Goes

PHILADELPHIA (FP) - First
reference during the sixth CIO con-
vention to the prospective return
to the AFL of the United Mine
Workers came in a discussion on
organization by Pres. Philip Muir
ray. He said:
"I've been told that John l..
Lewis may go back into the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, and that
when he does, he will take with him
part of the rubber workers, the
shipbuilding workers, the auto
workers and few other workers.

not (and l don't give damn they

zation than ever before. Nobody is

ployers or anybody else"

Miss Porter comes from a FAM
ily Of troupers and first appeared
behind the footlights when she
was three years old and sang my
Daddy Was A Minstrel Man" He
was, for Henry Porter had been a
minstrel man long before Jean
was born. She was born, inciden-
tally, in Cisco, Texas. From the
the moment she could talk, her
father taught her song and dance
routines and as soon as she was
old enough she travelled up and
down the country with her parents
on their vaudeville circuit engage
ments, playing everything from
drama to comedy blackface.
When her father gave up troup-
ing, the Porters settled in Holly
wood. Jean enrolled at LAWYERS
Professional School, where her
classmates were Mickey Rooney,
Judy Garland, Ann Shirley and
other youngsters bent on seeking
a career in the movies. But Jean
soon found out that getting a
screen test was a lot harder than
playing to one-night stands. While
her school chums began TO achieve
their goals and get set in pictures,
she couldn't seem to get started.
She played benefits and occasion
ally got spot on radio program,
but this did not satisfy her.
When Mickey Rooney and Judy
Garland started 'Babes on Broad
way" Jean auditioned for spot
in the chorus and got the job, but
when it was completed she made
up her mind that her next part
must be better one.
And it was. Through her pal,
Virginia Weidler, she learned that
M-G-M was testing girls for the
part Of Eirginia's chum in "The
Youngest Profession" She won
hands down.
Jean, who is barely five feet tall
and weighs ninety-eight pounds,
lives with her parents in Holly
wood. She says her favorite sports
are dancing, horsebacking riding,
skating and swimming, and that
collecting records and perfume
bottles are her hobbies.

Dies for Hush Hush. But
just About japanese

AUSTIN, Tex. (FP)-Rep. Mar.
tin Dies has found something he
doesn't want to investigate. It's the
japanese negotiated peace move
ment in America.
James r. Young, former foreign
correspondent in Toxic, made that
charge here where he appeared in
connection with the opening of a
movie, Behind the Rising Sun,
based on his book.
Dies, presented with evidence of
the flood of Japanese peace propa-
ganda spread throughout the U. S.,
wouldn't investigate because che
says, if you leave them alone, the
movement will subside, but if it's
publicized it will gain strength. /"
Young said. That's a new inter-
pretation for Dies"

Do You Want
To Know?

Do you like to know the truth
about your movies?
Sometimes it's stranger than fic-
ton. Of such is the new drama,
"The Adventures of Tartu," playing
this week at Loew's Valentine, star
ring Robert Donat. In the film,
Donat plays an English espionage
agent whose dangerous work takes
him over much of occupied Europe.
Due to war shortages of both
actors and materials, much of the
detail is the real thing. For in
stance in the hlitz scenes, actual
air raid wardens and rescue crews
were employed as extras. The
bombed areas in London provided
authentic settings. When a Nazi
bomber was required, Junkers So
model, shot down during an air
raid, was used. Another location
seen in the film is the Florence
Nightingale original nurses home
on the banks of the Thames oppo-
site the House of Parliament in
London.
Causing considerable excitement
in the streets were some of the
films actors, appearing in Nazi
uniforms taken from German pris-
oners. Actual news reel sound truck
was dubbed into the film, which
had originally recorded real air
raids, with the detonation of Nazi
bombs heard, the wall of sirens, the
crackle of flames and the crash of
falling walls.
The Adventures of Tartu" is the
first film to give movie audiences
such a large percentage of "the real
thing. 1t contributes much to the
suspense and sincerity of the pic
ture-which has for its theme, "No
surrender.
Also in the film are the two new
feminine finds, Valerie Hobson,
seen in the recent hit, "U-boat 29",
and 18-year-old Glynis Johns, whom
the soothsayers are declaring will
follow in Greer Garson's footsteps.

Australian films followed, and then
came an eight-month tour Of New

The war brought AIMS career
to climax. Her brother Roderick

ambulance unit. Ann made the big
decision of her life; she decided to

"My father had died" she said

live at the Hollywood Studio Club
and eventually got a chance to
play in an M-G-M short called
"The Woman in the House" She
took the part of sixty-five-year,
old woman. From that moment her
future was set.
King Vidor in search of a lead
ing lady for his America" saw
the short, sent for Miss Richards
and asked her to read a scene from
America" Six days later he told
her she had been selected for the
role of Ann O'Rourke.
Miss Richards is "a slender

who likes to write verse as a hab-
by. She says her greatest ambition
is to win an academy award.
When teen-age girl can change

Jean Porter did when she per.

chum of Virginia Weidler, the
pictures star, demanded a fat girl

was good enough, the characters

And she was right, because Mr.
Buzzell selected her from several

Sad commentary on Hollywood s
failure to assimilate the Negro

Negroes each year of about Is

These are pictures about Negro
farmers, doctors, authors, lawyers,
professors, chemists, artists. Their

their heroes.

Because of the limited field for
distribution tn es pictures are
made on budgets of strictly quickie
caliber. Some are made for little
as $4,000, and tops is $4,000.

Just recently the United Ma

both men and women, TO serve
in the snack bar, checkroom and
as receptionists at the new center
Tor service men and women in
the old Capitol Park Hotel. Mrs.
Collins and Mrs. Henry r. La
boulsse, il, chairman of oppor-
tunitieS, are faced with the task
of securing workers for this "a
hour-a day job. Mrs. Alexander
Wolf, who has over 1000 hours of
volunteer work to her credit, is
Mrs. Collins right-hand aide.
Mrs. Joseph D. kaufman,
chairman Of the clerical depart
ment, has smooth-running Sec
ton composed of expert file
clerks, typists and mimeograph
operators.
At CDVO headquarters there is
no time for gay lunches or cam
teen chatter. Each day the vari-
Gus groups of workers bring their
lunches in paper bags and snatch
a bite between telephone calls,
registering recruits or punching
"Keysort' cards, At IL noon the
Kettle boils for tea or coffee to

Two things are evident to anv
visitor at CDVO headquarters
its efficiency and the democratic
and cooperative spirit of its
chief, Mrs. Harry S. Bernton. and
her workers. Uniforms are worn.
but there is no rank. Regular
staff meetings are held. but
these are open to any volunteer
because Mrs. Bernton believes
that every worker should know
what Is going on; also she knows
that many valuable suggestions
come from her rank and file. She
does not believe in secret con-
claves and her belief is justified
in the fine spirit and interest of
every volunteer.
