shows the price line limitation serves no useful purpose in any OPAregulatlon but, on the contrary, is a blundering restric- ton upon efforts of the trade to serve the public by offering the most satisfac- tory goods available at the lowest prices possible at this time.

He has travelled more than any other President m history. even more than Taft. He has had a large family of children who have not hesitated to raise hell with the old Man" when they thought things were going wrong - to say nothing of a wife who has greater interest in public affairs than any other previous First Lady of the Land.
 NARROWER ORBIT
 Despite all this, however, the President more and more has tended to draw within a narrower orbit of friends. This is easily understandable. In the first place, he has to spend more time on the war and foreign affairs. Also, as he gets older and more rooted in office, the natural in- clination Is to shun the disagree able, lean toward the agreeable. This is one reason for Harry Hop kins' great vogue with the Presi- dent. He is just as comfortable as an old shoe.
 In recent months also, the Presi- dents children have been away, and in no position to raise hell" with him. Jimmy Roosevelt, a

ExERc1sEs FoR HERNIA

An item printed here several weeks ago was a report from 9 reader who said (a) his nephew now in the navy, had hernia from infancy, had an unsuccessful opera ton, then wore truss for several years and had spontaneous cure. (b) Three other members of the family had hernia and were all ap- narently cured after wearing truSses from a few months to a year. Co The reader himself had small rup- ture six years ago, was partlaliy disabled for some time, wore truss for about year, discarded 1t, ana has never had any further trouble. Numerous readers assumed this was a testimonial for some parGacu- lar kind of truss.
 No particular make or kind or truss was mentioned. That is un- important. The important thing, whenever any one is to wear truss, is that the type of truss be selected by the patients own pny- sician, and that the patient wear the truss under the care and reg ular examination of his phsictai1. Certainty no particular make or kind of truss has an curative vir- tues in itself and no one kind or type of truss is suitable or even safe to apply to any and all hernias. All any truss can do for one with hernia is to prevent the bulging. and thus give the patient what small chance there may be to obtain a spontaneous cure.
 For hernia in youth or adult the chance of obtaining spontaneous cure is too small to warrant wait ing more than 8 year before sub mitting to either the radical oper- ation or injection treatment at the hands of a responsible physician who is skilled in the difficult tech- nique of ambulant treatment.
 But in every case of hernia, large or small, of apparently recent origin or of long standing. it is advisable to wear a suitable truss or other sup port constantly or at least whenever one is not lying in bed. that is. pro- vided, of course, the hernia is re- ducible. If the bulging does not dis appear when carefully manipulated while the patient lies on back with hips higher than shoulders. it be- comes a more serious question whether truss or any other support should be worn, and only the patients physician can advise what is safe to do.
 We'll we'll have to postpone the exercises until the next session of the class.

AS A MATTER OF FACT

In spending 1943 was tops. As mat ter of fact it tops a fifty-year total Fed eral expenditures in the past year added up to more than was spent over one hundred and fifty year period. A year by year check-up from the time the Treasury was established shows mounting costs, and the current year an epochal one. Federal costs up to 1926 were $87, 7,3OO,- 100000; and this year alone $88, ,OOO, ,OOO,- 900 was spent.

colonel in the Marines, did tele- phone his father from Los An- geles after the horribe fiasco at Guadalcanal in August, 1922, and urged him to fire lot of admir- als. And Elliott Roosevelt. on one or two trips back from North Africa, has had some hot things to say about certain of his fath- CTS pet advisers. But otherwise, this stimulating influence has been removed.
 Result is that the President has to be his own whip-lash to keep himself from falling back into the splendid isolation en- jOyed by so many Presidents dur ing their last years in office.
 Since he wants to set up per- manent peace machinery more than anything else in the world flor which Senate ratification is so necessary-he may apply the whip to himself and make it a point to see more of the disagree able politicos on Capitol Hill. It will be one thing to watch this new year.
