"No, madam. But we have TO

The key turned, the door began
opening, and Rae fattened himself
against the wall, ready to strike.

Tom Oewey's Attack
Tom Dewey's Attack
these DdySby Go. 81 E soKOIsXY

Tom Dewey's speeches are un
usual in a campaign not only in
their directness but In the specif
ic responsibilities which he as
sumes as he goes along. He does
not dodge or hedge at all. He is
building a structure OF promises
so absolutely stated that there is
no possibility OF going back on
them should he be elected For
instance, he has stated definitely
that the next Secretary OF Labor
would come from the ranks of
organized labor. That will mean,
in the labor world. that the next
Secretary OF Labor will be either
an AT of l.. or a railroad brother.
hood official. AS the clio. is
fighting Dewey even more vigor--
ously than the Democratic organ
ization is, It stands TO reason that
the CLIO. will not be represented
in Dewey's Cabinet. II elected.
Dewey has stated beyond ques,
ton that he would put the ad.
ministration OF labor problems back
in the Department of Labor. That
means a complete revamping OF
that Department which has been
reduced to innocuousness because
Mr.. Roosevelt could not rely upon
Miss Perkins and he could not or
would not get her to resign. The
result OF this administrative cur
iosity OF formal department
which does not function has been
the pyramiding OF agency upon
agency, conflicting jurisdictions,
confusing decisions, administra-
tive anarchy, This Dewey prom
Uses to rectify.
The fact is that the National La
Dor Relations Act, like most law,
can be made TO work and Mr..
Dewey promises 10 make It work.
But it is not good law because II
is lopsided law. 1t can be admin
istered to give special privileges
to one group of Americans against
all others. II cannot be disre-
garded that the MIRA could be

Rheumatic Heart

The rheumatic heart group by it's
mineral preponderance engages
our attention, and the question .
arises how preventible is this seri-
Gus and gripping menace to youth.
For it is that. To rheumatic heart
disease cannot be applied what
was said of other defects that it
does not constitute a threat to
health. Many of these patients
can work during their early years,
but in all of them after the age of
80, and certainly of 40, serious and
more or less permanent impair
ment of health is the rule.
The disease is unquestionably
caused by a germ, but we do not
know the germ, so we can provide
no bacteriologic immunity. 1t be-
gins as acute rheumatic fever af-
fecting the serious membranes of
the joints and also having an Atm
ity for the serious membranes of
the lining of the heart. 1t is the
great cause of valvular heart dis
ease.
II we prevent the rheumatic
fever we prevent the heart disease.
This acute rheumatism which
particularly affiicts children has
by long tradition occurred in COM
pany with dampness and cold.
There are nearly three times as
many cases in northern and sea-
board states as in southern and in
land states. But poverty has some
thing to do with the causation
also. DR.. Don Carlos Peete, of my
own university, has presented
studies to show that lack Of sun
shine and poor diet are the most
important predisposing factors in
bringing on rheumatic fever.
Poverty and not dampness," he

tor" II occurs in large families Of
the low income group with an av-
erage of rs members per family:
these families have to spread the

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
NJ. P.:-When a person has a
urinalysis done and it reports the
specific gravity is such-and-such
what does that mean?
Answer: Specific gravity in a
fluid refers to how much solid
matter is dissolved in it. The
specific gravity of distilled water
is 1. The normal specific gravity

Price Ceilings On Used Passenger

Older cars may not be sold for more
than the comparable 1897 model.
The effective date was delayed to
allow the trade to make it's adjust
ments, OPA Administrator Chester
BoWles said.
I'm some sections of the country,
used cars three years old bring to-
day two or three times more than
similar cars bought before the war"
the OPA administrator said.
II think that indicates what pres
sures there are today to push prices
up and what might have happened
in other fields if there had been no
controls.
The ceilings were fixed at differ
ent levels for three broad geographic
cal regions. Highest prices prevail
in the Far West, lowest prices in
the region east of the Mississippi
River and ceilings about halfway
between for the remaining states.
Two ceiling prices were set for
each model, one covering a car sold
as is the other a warranty"

price covering cars sold by dealers
with 30-day or 1000 mile guaran-
tee.
The ceilings will drop 4 per cent
of the 'as is" price every six
months. After every sale, the buyer
and seller must fill out transfer
certificate and turn it in to the
buyers local ration board.
Typical ceilings on a 1912 Ford
V-8 deluxe four-door sedan in Ari-
zona are: $1O65 as is and $1,331

$940 and $1,175 for the 1941 model;
$475 and 1894 for the 1887 model.
