OPA Organizes Eight
 County Medical Panels
Director Arpaia Coniers With AppOntees; Physicians
 May Prescribe Additional Food for Patients

The Office of Price Adminlstra- ton for Connecticut has established. in cooperation with the Connecticut State Medical Society. eight county medical panels to serve as advisory groups to county rationing boards in the issuance of supplemental food rations for the sick. Members Of the newly appointed panels meeting ln New Haven with Anthony P. AFpaia, State Director of the OPA. and Arthur Maitland. head of the oPA food rationing section.
 Mr. Arpala. who was introduced by pr. Creighton Barker. Executive Secretary of the State Medical S0- eiety. explained OPA policies in the allowance Of supplemental amounts of rationed foods to persons suffer" ing from certain diseases. Under those regulations. he pointed out. physicians may prescribe additional amounts Of necessary foods for patients requiring special diets. The local rationing boards. N the amounts asked are within the limits set up for each disease by the Aa. tional Research Councils commit tee on this matter. are authorized to grant the extra ration points. H the prescription exceeds the maxi- mum allowance. the rabonlng boards have. according to regula. tions. referred them to the ReRionai Medical Advisory Board in Soston for rulings.
 'srhis system", said MT. Arpaia. ''has not been satisfactory in many respects. The location of the Ad- ylsOry Medical Board in Boston precluded the close contact with physicians which Is essential for ef- fectiye handling 0f those problems. Decisions of the Boston Board have frequently been questioned and ra' li0nlng boards have been put in the middle"
 'sThe appointment Of county IIledi' cal panels Will eliminate those dif@ faculties" declared the oPA director. 'aThe members of each panel know inc doctors in their area and cen quickly clear up questions ghieD arise by getting in touch gith them, The naneis viii serve as haisoD grouns between the Blediesl profess sion an9 the Estlop boards and the new plan will, am sure, woFk ont 10 tl,e satisfaction 0f most patients and nhysicisns'. he concluded.

regional board. no panel will have more than 50 to GO each month. em- phasizing that only in prescriptions not within the jurisdiction Of the ration board are decisions by the panels required. The new set-up wifi greatly expedite the allowance or rejection of special diet applica- tons. he stated.
 Mfr. Arpaia. Mr. Maitland and Dr. Barker answered the questions of the panel members. whose interest and enthusiasm for the new ar- raneement was evident. Before the meeting ended plans were made for the panels to begin functiOning within two weeks.

Democrats United On Roosevelt's Candidacy
President Faces Five Pressing Political Problems Be- fore November Elections; Southern Revolt Possible

the Administration political archi- tects real concern.
 ''The Presidents statement that he will accept the fourth-term nomination sets the stage for chi- cago. but does nothing to solve the paTtys problems"
 The article lists five of ''Roosevelts more pressing political problems:
 CD The anti-New Deal revolt in several southern states may well do greater damage outside the solid South than inside. It impaigs the dignity Of the Presidents wartime campaign role and gignalizes to the rest Of the country the great un- certainty of his ability to control his own party in Congress even if he were himself reelected and should retain a numerical majority in both houses.
 (2D More obviously today than at any time in recent years there are two Democratic parties wTyly try- ing to look happy under one label. There is the New Deal party and the Southern Democratic party. He Is a political house -diyided -againsts itself superflcially bound together by the single self-intere6t of sglnting to stay in office. Some southern Democrats are more deeply opposed to the essential policies of the New Deal than are the northern Repub- licans, and Roosevelt may have a hard time persuading the country which Democratic party he wants it to eiect-the southern wing. which, for example, passed the C0nnaliy~ Smith labor disputes Iaw, or the C. I. o. wing which wants the Con- naily. smith act repealed.
 (O The Democrats have been maneuyered into the almost ineseap- abl dilemma of either losing the northern Negro support or of saIi- ming the flames of the southern Democratic revolt. The paFty'S southern wing led Q recent cons gressional crusade to snud out the Presidents Fair Employment Prae- tices committee " an agency which the c. !. O. -New Deal gtng strongly advocates. By urging q permanent FEPc, the Republican platform dares the New Deal to offer as much to the negro voter as the q, O. ?. does.
 @ Roosevelt has no happy choice for his running mate. He must either either offend his own party organization by retaining Wallace or offend his most zeal0us labor sup- porters by rejecting Wallace, The Presidents choice of his vicerpFeslv dential candidate will he aD tneiT cation as to which group he expects t0 he most decisive in helping bring about his election - the aTtieulafe labor groups or the independent, inteTnatiOnallst Republicans yh0 are uncertain where Dewey really stands,
 (5) Finally, a complex problem Of how to combine stateslnanship with politics give the President . sahTehoice Politics tells him to make foreign policy, and his leadeFs ship in building the peace, aes eisiye issue in the campaign as the best means 0f getting elected, But staiesmanship tells him that taking foreign policy, and hts leadership in building the peace, out Of the heat and seufhe Of . partisan eanlE paign is the obly means ef winning the peace

GAR ENGINES TO RUN 15O,OOO
 MILES FORESEEN
m rnARlEa T. PEARanl

0A AaaMMAlAD As NAMAEOa& United Prcss Staff Csrgexpenaenl
 Detroit tUPl--Automobileg that win run iso.oo0 miles or more without reboEing or replacing cn. zine blocks are predicted by the Bn6d Induction Heating Go. Inc, through heat treatment of cylinder walls and bearing surfaces.
 Chief Engineer Howard E. somez revealed that heat-treated cylln- deFs used by the Caterpillar Trac- tor CO. Peoria. m. under severe wartime conditions have stood ur three to 70 times as long as un- treated cylinders.
 ITO passenger car owners. this means that an automobile engine that formerly had an average life of 5000 miles cn be expected to run at least l50l00o miles under normal conditions without exces- sive year." Somes said.
 Ordinary good quality cast iron known to the industry as 'gray iron," takes on the quality of hard steel through induction heat treat ment. Somers said, with standard procedures that give the casting lile hardness at a predetermined depth where needed.
 Now Used in Munitions
 Developed over 10 years of re. search. induction heating inside diameters first used by Budd conn mercially in 1887 to harden integral bearing races in Ford rear hubs.
 Formerly bearing races were pressed in" Somes said. Nov they are part of the hub itself. preci- sion ground after hardening. They are in perfect alignment and cant creep. as the old ones sometimes did"
 In the plant. where powerful generators produced high-frequency alternating current. Somes showed the process in operation, now con- centrated on production of muni. tions.
 An induction coil. slightly smaller than the inside of the part to be hardened, goes inside the piece for one and one-haif to two seconds, followed immediately with 'quench. ing" by cold water. controlled for temperature and amount.
 Process Is Automatic
 A single operation, the process is largely automatic and completely controlled for current. time. tenn perafure and depth and area of hardness. When removed from the machine after hardening. the piece will show any defects in the original metal to the naked eye without microscopic examination or other tests.
 Until the advent of the Budd Co. process. inside treating was not considered commercially practic- able" Somes said. By this method. now in daily production. we raise the temperature of metal from 70 degrees room temperature to l1600 ard 1900 degrees Fahrenheit in one to one and one-half seconds"
 Among postwar automottve ap- plications of the process Somes listed treatment Of engine com ponents made as integral parts such as bearing races, valve seats, inc ternal gears and splines.
 While a better product is the first consideration, Eomes said mass production of induction hardened parts inevitably will result tn lower cost and a far superior automobile | for Q comparable price.

Quicker Taps for Tokyo

Daily newspapers are furnishing some grim
reading of realities. To civilian and SOL
dier readers working or training in Ninth
Service Command installations comes the re-
alization that probably 90 per cent of the war
story is yet to be told.
Such horror story was released January 27
by Army and Navy officials. 1t was docu-
mented by sworn statements of three officers
who escaped from Japanese prison camps
The 4,O00-word account described how the
japanese starved, tortured and in some cases
wantoniy murdered the defenders of Bataan-
how ZOO Americans died in two months in
one of the prison camps.
1t is a bloody, dirty war; a war to be won
as quickly possible so that not one Ameri-
can soldier need sacrifice his life unnecessarily.
10 that end it is up to all Americans to
make possible such streams Of bombs and
tanks and bullets and bombers and ships and
food and medicines that our fighting equip
ment is equal to our fighting spirit
10 us at home in the still land of plenty it
means sacrifice of few material things SO
that our extra War Bonds may supply more
materiel of war
It's our opportunity to provide quicker
taps for Tokyo.

Demanding

Experience is the world greatest teacher, we
all know. And from the voice of experience
I've learned it is good thing for us to never
demand all we think due, no matter
what it may be.
This statement has proven true in MANY
ways 1t has caused men to lose positions,
respect, friends and their lives in many cases;
whereby if they had been contented with what
they had the troubles could have been pre-
vented. do not mean for the sake of peace al
low yourself to be run over. refer only to those
who demand that everything they think they
should have be given them at all times. Search
closely and you will find the foundation of all
wars, and this one to great extent, is from
men demanding all they think they are due
Let's look at this thing from the side of
peace sometimes and be contented and leave
Oft the constant, nagging demanding
