in the body OF the American Con-
stitution. The First Ten Amend
ments represent the demand that
whereas such a generalization as
welfare" might be Of value, spec
ifications like the Bill Of Rights
made for greater certainty.
The San Francisco Charter con-
tains three sections which are in
many respects repetitious, the Pre-
amble, Chapter |, Article l entitled

Principles. A good managing edi-
tor. like Thomas jefferson. could
have boiled 1t all down to q few
sentences but diplomats go in for
words. At any rate, when We get
through with the Preamble and the
Purposes, we come to the Princi-
pies which are much the same as
what preceded them until we come
to the very last principle which is
the escape clause" This pro
vides:
Nothing contained in the pres
ent charter shall authorize the
United Nations to intervene In mat
ters which are essentially within
the domestic jurisdiction OF any
state or shall require the mem
bers to submit such matters to
settlement under the present char
ter: but this principle shall not
prejudice the application OF enforce
ment measures under Chapter VII"
which deals with threats to peace,
etc.
The escape clause may prove
to be the most serious and signifi-
cant Of these Principles, because
once the Charter functions for the

Ailments Difficult
TO Determine
BY HERMAN NJ. BUNDEsEN. NJ. Z
WHEN certain Of the body
parts are not working as they
should, the conditions produced are
called functional disturbances.
These functional disturbances fire.
quently occur in the stomach and
bowel although they may show up
in almost any part Of the body.
According TO Doctor Walter
Lincoln Palmer Of Chicago, the
majority Of patients with such dis
orders will respond TO treatment
which has for its purpose the re-
storing Of the normal action Of the
bowel by the use Of proper diet,
exercise, rest, and drugs which
either relieve muscle spaSm or
quiet the nerves.
Diagnosis After Study
Diagnosis Of 9 functional dis
turbance is made only after q care
full study Of the patients difficulty.
The symptoms vary to q great ex-
tent. There may be a feeling Of
fullness, excessive gas in the bowel,
pain in the abdomen or tenderness,
belching, sickness to the stomach,
loss Of appetite, and constipation.
Doctor Palmer believes that in
such patients the entire intestinal
tract is over-irritable, and that in
the treatment an effort must be
made to lessen this irritability.
Since all food and drink is more
or less stimulating to the diges-
tive organs, in some acute condi-
lions, a period Of starvation may
be recommended. Doctor Palmer
has listed foods according to their
laxative action.
Less Laxative Foods
In the treatment Of functional
disturbances of the bowel, the
foods which are less laxative are
employed, and as the condition i'm
proves, the more laxative ones may
be added. I have prepared list Of
these foods and shall be glad to
send a copy of this list to all who
desire it if they will write, enclos-
ing a self-addressed stamped en-
velope. Their names will not be
used.
In addition to dietary treatment,
a period Of bed rest may be neces-
sary in some cases. However, ex-
ercises should be used in modera-
ton as soon as the bed rest period
is over. The drugs employed in the
treatment Of this condition consist
Of belladonna and phenobarbital.
Bromides may also be used. Laxa-
tives should not as a rule be en-
ployed and then only under the
doctors direction.
An effort should be made during
the condition to reassure the pa
tent, TO restore his confidence and
help him get rid of worries and
troubles insofar as is possible.

Heaven knows there are enough

War Argument
Leads to
Fatal Shooting

PHOENIX. Ariz., Aug. 13 up
The fatal shooting at Buckeye Sat
urday night of Hash Wilson, So,
Phoenix construction worker, Mon
day was attributed to an argument
over the war by Sheriff Z. w Roach
following an investigation which LED
TO the falling of Curtis L. Daniel.
62-year-old real estate dealer.
Daniel admitted quarreling with
Wilson and acknowledged that the
revolver apparently used IN TIC
shooting was his, but denied firing
the gun. He said he fought with
Wilson when the latter called him
a Jap SympathiZer
The two once were separated by
George Corn. Buckeye real estate
man with whom Daniel was ASSOC
ciated. Wilson apparently returned
and witnesses said he and Daniel
were wrestling in an automobile in
front Of the real estate office when
the shot was fired.
