no battle and no war can be

from a distance. Victory can
only be won by fighting face 70

II is a military axiom that An

There is no excuse for under
estimating the power Of artil-
lery fire; it is playing role in
this war as great as in any pre-
vious war. Its Importance in
the public mind has been over
Swallowed by the rapid rise and
ramatic employment of the
airplane.
But the air weapon. either in
tactical bombing or in strategic
bombing is not full substitute
for the gun.
The dominant military expec-
tation for the defeat of Germany
is. that it will be done by in

effort by air power and artillery.

In neither theater Of war
have we territory in our pos
session on which our troops can
be landed, without molestation;
in which our armies can be
readily concentrated, where
they can move by land against
the enemy.
Both Japan and Germany
have protected themselves by
occupying and holding every
adjacent territory which could
serve us as a beach-head for
our army operations against
them.
THE result is. that in order

The unit 10 which I am attached
is, not a combat outfit We work
in close conjunction with the
army, helping TO speed supplies
and ammunition to forces on the
fighting front only a few miles
away. Arriving at the scene of
battle only a few hours after the
guns have stopped blasting, we
have observed and taken part in
the occupation of Sicilian cities
and the subsequent recreation of
lines in these areas.
Yankee ingenuity for doing
business in a fair, effective man

Fishing had been stopped and the
FaScists had long ago butchered
almost all edible cattle Within
three days after the navy had
taken control of a certain port.

BY DIR. LOGAN CLENDENING-

WITH THE publication OF her
w book, And They Shall
Walk, published by Dodd Mead.
Sister Kenny has plainly set
forth the issues between her
and what she calls the ortho-
doNes" in the medical profess
sion.
The orthodox view is that in
fantile paralysis is an infec-
tlouS disease, the virus Of
which has a particular affin-
ity for those cells in the
nervous system located IN the
spinal cord which send fibrilS 10
and control muscle movement.
@ The inflammation Of and
around these cells sometimes
puts them out of commission
temporarily so that there is
temporary paralysis and some
times completely destroys them
so that there is a permanent
paralysis.
MISS KENNY found by ex-
A'A perience that by using hot
packs on the affected muscles
and by manipulating and NOV
ing the limbs from the very
earliest period OF the disease.
muscle spasm is relieved. She
believes that by using this
method more recoveries take
place.
And finally she has come 10
the conclusion that the disease
is located in the muscle alone
and that the nervous system or
motor nerve cells are not. dis
eased al all.
IL Is unfortunate that She
ever forced herself 10 the last
conclusion. The application OF
the hot packs and the manipu-
lations early in the disease are
ASorms of physiotherspy that had
Dprobsbly been neglected by the
regular profession and which
probably do a certain amount
Of good. But ito deny that mo-
tor nerve cells are not de-
stroyed by the disease is sheer
nonsense and / am not ac-
quainted with any physician
who believes that.
