 Every sick person should have whatever care Is necessary to fulfil doctors instructions and to keep comfortable and contended. but he should not have too much ate teniion. It is quite possible to tire a patient with too much care Rest and quiet are as important for his recovery as medicine and nursing.
 SCHEDULES WORK
 Unless a patient Is critically ill he does not require constant watching. Most people relax more completely when alone. Even children can be provided with some kind Of quiet amusement that will keep them content for long periods by themselves.
 A home nurse Of my acquaiflt- ance has learned to fit her nurs- ing duties into her daily schedule with a minimum of effort. She sits down in the patients room after she has given him his bath in the morning. and plans her day, telling inn what she has 10 do. She makes out written schedule and gives it to him to keep. so that he knows what she is doing when he hears her moy- ng about downstairs. and can adapt his demands for her atten- tion somewhat to her schedule.
 In the written schedule she in- ciudes periodic visits to the sick room so that the patient knows when she is coming up. and hat he is not 10 call her between those visits unless it is really nec- essary

BALTIMORE, June 3.-Vigorous
opposition to any postwar military
alliance was expressed yesterday by
Gov, John w. Bricker of Ohio, who
also declared that "the American
people will never consent" to United
States soldiers serving in an inter-

Gov. Bricker, in Baltimore in

told a press conference that ANY
world policing force would have to
come largely from our men"
THE American people will never
consent to having United States
soldiers under the command of any
other country" he declared.
Gov. Bricker said he favored a
permanent international organiza-

to any organization so strong it

international actions and policies.
So far as the presidential elec-
tions were concerned, said Gov.
Bricker, nothing would so invig-
orate Americans as a change in
leadership. A republic is always
dependent on new, vigorous leader
ship, and if ever it is needed, it is
