broad pathways of wrong doing and over the preeiplce of disaster.
 Unconsciously many people make the rule of gold a fundamental principle of their lives. Many are frank in saying that they regard money as the chief and in life and that they Intend to neglect no op' portunity to get as much of t as possible. But there are others whose devotion to the rule of gold Is quite unconscious. It Is only when they stand before some great temptation to secure money by unworthy or perhaps dishonest means thet they realize that the Golden Rule means little to them and the rule of gold means much.
 Of these two principles ore leads to ilfe, the other to death; one to light, the other to darkness.

SYMPATHY WITHOUT COINCIDENCE

I have always felt sympathy for any one with nervous indigestion" feel sorry for those who early in life find themselves equipped With a nervous system so frail, so sen. sitive ..
 That's enough to show that the author of the paragraph is not Doc (Hardboiled) Brady. The author is Walterd c. Alvarez, M. D. (NervOus IndigestiOn), Paul B. Hoeber, pulp fisher, 1o30.
 (Brady) sometimes feel faint but perceptible twinges of sympa- thy for any poor geek who has nervous indigestion" wished on him, but that's as far as I'm willing to go along that line.
 Finest scientific elucidation of nervous indigestion I can cite is that in the first chapters of Prof. Walter B. Cannon's Bodily Changes in Pain, Hunger, Fear and Rage, D. Appleton & Co., 19l5). Nowhere in this scientific report of actual observations in the laboratory does Dr. Cannon offer any support for the fancy that chronic or constant digestive disturbance is attributable to vague nervous" weakness, ex- haustion, fatigue, strain or what have you.
 Instead of coincidence or even too thick buttering with sympathy, if you have any prolonged, chronic or constant trouble with digestion you need proper medical attention.
 For example, to take at random this instance out of many:
 "I have been particularly ill" terested in a group of patients with subclinical pellagra) whose symptoms, referable largely to the digestive tract, are vague and cannot be correlated with any known disease but which none- theless are insistent and real.
 The disabilities of these patients include the following: anorexia lack of appetite), diarrhea, easy exhaustion, nervous iritability or mild mental depression, and peripheral neuritis. Often the tongue is red and there may be a history of glossitis Gnfamma- ton or soreness of tongue). Sometimes there is little more than anorexia, loss of weight and change in personality. The correct diagnosis can be made when, after appropriate treat ment, including the admilistra- ton of nicotinic acid (niacin) and brewers yeast Cat least one fourth pound a day for the aver age patient), the patients symp- toms disappear and his sense of well being improves. Sometimes the Improvement is dramatic" This is quoted from Nutrition and Diet in Health and Disease by James s. McLester, M. D., published by Saunders, '39.

Seee@C@ and Professor Oscar Lange, Polish American leader and a teacher atsthe University of Chi cago, both of whom had inter- views with Stalin.
 Although less widely publicized than Father Orlemanskis inter- view, Professor Lange had long separate talk with Marshal Stalin and, perhaps because he was not circumscribed by Church superiors, his report, on the whole, has been the more penetrating and helpful.
 Net conclusion drawn from the Lange- -Orlemanski reports is that Polish Russian relations,
 one of the most troublesome problems of the war, are on the eve of wholesome rapprOche- ment, probably beginning about now.
 It was shortly after the receipt of the Lange-O Orlemanski reports that President Roosevelt began series of three conferences with Polish Premier Mikolajczyk in Washington, the results of which exceeded expectations.
 If Polish Russian relations can be settled amicably, one of the worst obstacles to postwar peace will be removed. Poland, for a hundred years partially governed by Russia, has a deep-rooted uss- picion of the Soviet, while the Russians. having borne the main brunt of the European war on land, naturally feel they are en- titled to areas forcibly wrested away from them after the last war.
 STALIN DISCUSSES
 POLISH BOUNDARIES
 In their separate interviews with Stalin, the two Polish Amer jeans, Father Orlemanski and Professor Lange. heard the re- assuring words from the strong man of Russia that his govern ment wants strong, independ- ent Poland after the war-a Po- land whihc will be strong both. iiternaIly and externally. but which will be favOrably disposed tot he Soviet UniOn."
 Stalin went ever further and said that he was ready to help create a new Polish Army.
 II am ready to build an Army for Poland, equip it fully and arm it with the best guns the Soviet Union can make" he told Professor Lange. T will do this for at least 100000 men,"
 Stalin also discussed the ques- ton of PolandS future bound- aries and revealed that they had already been discussed in some de- tail at Teheran. Tn doing so, he let drop a very important point that, at Teheran, Roosevelt and he had agreed to the breakup of Germany after the war.
 Poland should claim East Prussia" StaIin said, land should also claim Upper silesia and all the German territory, up to the Oder river, including Stettin."
 NOTE: This would give Poland practically all of Pomerapia, great stronghold of PrussiaI mili- tarism. Shortly after Teheran, this columnist reported that the Big Three had proposed giving Pomerania, East Prussia and Si- lesia to Poland, in order to separate the Prussian Junkers from the rest of Germany and stamp out German militarism for keeps,
 Stalin told his visitors that he was not sure whether Poland should get Breslau lin silesia) or not. This was point, he said,

Opposing Factions
To Seek Compromise
On SIum Clearance
Burton Willing to Offer
Revised Housing Bill
1t Agreement Is Reached
BY DON S. WARREN.

Opposing sides in the pro-
tracted fight over how the fu-
ture slum-clearance program of
the District should be conducted
agreed today to a joint meeting
the week of May Z in the hope of
mutual agreement on q revised
bill.
Chairman Burton of the Senate
District subcommittee which has
gone extensively into the slum- clear
ance problem said he stood ready to
introduce a revised bill, and voiced
ardent hope the Home Builders As
ISOLATION and the National Capital
Housing Authority could reconcile
their differences.
This development came at the out
set OF a hearing today before the
subcommittee, which was to be devot-
ed mostly to detailed restatement
OF the arguments of John Ihlder,
NCHA executive officer. Mr.. Ihlder
took what was regarded as more
conciliatory view toward the position
OF the private building industry In
rehousing Slum dWellers, but insisted
again there was a field where they
could not meet the need except by
subsidies.
Maj. Gen. u. S. Grant III. Park
and Planning Commission chairman
revealed a conference was sched-
uled for last Saturday but that he
had Cancelled it when he found two
Dlstrlct government members of the
NCHA could not attend.
Split Over Two Points.
Gen. Grant added that he had
conferred separately with members
of the association and found that
the two sides were in agreement on
all points, except two, which the
builders spokesmen said they could
not accept. He did not say whethe,
these two points were of maio,
Importance.
Senator Burton remarked that il
would prove most helpful if the
Government and private authorities
could agree on the terms of the bill.
even If some points still were left
IN dispute. This is especially i'm
portant, he added, since other con-
gress1onal committee assignments
probably will forestall another
housing hearing until May IT. 1t
has been emphasized repeatedly an
early solution is vital, since the
present 10-year-old alley dwelling
law forbids, under heavy penalties
