House Don't they know they

Secret Service men, "don't they
know anything about security?"

DON'T TAKE LIFE SERIOUSLY
In the preceding talk In this
series about high blood pressure
said one with high blood pressure
should take life facetiously.
Now 1 am not quite so cold-blood-
ed, so sarcastic and SC singularly
lacking in sympathy as some cor
respondents who want !ong-dls-
lance diagnosis or prescription
seem to think l am. Yet when I'm
off my feed Gas for instance when
rain makes the greens too wet 10
bowl it's a near thing for any
well-meaning member of the family
even to inquire how I'm feeling now.
If I'm not feeling fine and dandy
it puts me into a vicious temper
to talk about 1t. Talk? Hun.
should say grunt.
But you poor geeks with hyper
tension can't kid me. know That
has nothing to do with your dispo-
sition, temper, outlook or person.
atty. So you can't blame your UNI
pleasant nature or your surly spirit
on your blood pressure. Much near
err the truth vice versa.
There is a flare, maybe hash
in the pan, just now for what the
aggressive medical publishers ana
the professional textbook writer's
call "psychosomatic medicine" Ar
ticles and textbooks suddenly APP
pearing under this title go all out
with the sophomore idea that the
fundamental factor of apprehension
is emotional stress, or unconscious
conflict" You may have heard a
college sophomore Spouting newly
discovered psychology? Well,
that's about the size of it.
However, as most people know,
mere anxiety or worry, even about
the result of the examination, can
and often does increase the blood
pressure, and recognizing this good
doctors generally do not take the
first measurement as a fair test,
but wait till the patient, candidate
or applicants is calm and Indifferent
-wether an hour or day or two
later - and then yet an accurate
gauge.
Another technical difference be-
tween the good doctor and the
charlatan Is that the good doctor
rarely or never informs the pa
tent how many millimeters or
points" the systolic and/or diasto-
lie pressure is now And if you ask
me, it is none Of the patients busi-
ness. AS a patient have had num-
erous blood pressure measurements,
and I have never inquired whether
it was high, low, jack or game.
The effect Of the emotions on
blood pressure and on gastric hy-
peracidity and peptic ulser has be-
come a familiar gang" in contem-
poraneous humor. There is con-
siderable truth in it, nevertheless.

his own. So with So proposed
amendments from the first four
corners it looked as though the
California sunshine which greeted
early arrivals would in time be
blanketed by something more than
fog rolling in from the Pacific.
The days will be warm, but the
mere prospect of As nations, each
offering half a dozen or more
amendments, Is enough to give every
delegate a pair of fresh blankets
heavy enough to sleep under every
night.
EVERYTHING'S PERFECT
BUT
None of these amendments is a
criticism Of Dumbarton Oaks pro-
posals, you understand. Dumbarton
Oaks is perfect-greatest thing in
history - hope Of the future - just
what the world has been waiting for
but
AS Foreign Minister van Kleffens
said. IF the Netherlands delegation
should criticize, we do 1t only to i'm
prove - we are not worried about
mere words :. We are not legal
istic minded, but we shall propose
amendments"
The fog blanket of amendments
threatening to darken the San
Francisco skies will be only slightly
less confusing than the millions of
words to be written and broadcast
by the 1900 newsmen and women
on hand for the proceedings.
The exporting that goes on in
hotel corridors doesn't just suffo-
cate you, it browns you. Real foreign
correspondents who have made
lifetime business of this diplomatic
games can ask four-dollar questions
so complicated you can't even I'M
derstand the questions, let alone the
answers.
Are you opposed to the Yalta
vote plan," somebody asked Mr.. van
KleffenS, ION quasi-judicial or
quasi-executive decisions?"
He answered it, but if you want
to know how, please look some place
else. 1t was just too deep.
STUMPING THE EXPERTS
For So, somebody asked Dutch
Minister Van Kleffens what he
thought about Korea. For SIG. Mex
lean Minister Padilla was asked
what he thought about Poland. For
$32, French Foreign Minister BIZ
dault was asked something about
CzechoSlovakia
The trick seems to be to ask a for
eign minister something that Is
completely foreign to anything he
is supposed to know the answer to.
1t apparently takes practice. BIZ
dault slid out of one of the slick
questions by saying that "the ques-
ton leads us onto Slippery slope"
This Bidault, though, seems to be
quite character and Smoothie,
too.
II am sure" his translator said
he said, this conference will meet
with difficulty. All conferences meet
with difficulty
1t was a masterful understate-
ment.
Biggest difficulty of this conference
is apparently going to be the Rus
slams who up to opening day not
only hadn't said anything, but had
stayed out on a Soviet communica-
lions ship anchored in San Fran
cisco Bay so they wouldn't have to
say it.
The $64 question for them Is,
"Lublin?"
Anybody knowing the answer will
please offer an amendment.

citizens Of Waterbury who have occasion
to make use of the various sidewalks
running through the Green will use them
at all times. The edges of the greensward
too often are worn bare because people

Selected Poem
SLEEPY VALLEY
SLEEPY VALLEY
(Cosette Middleton in The Christian Science


(Cosette Middleton in The Christian Science
Montor)
The dawn grows indolent from blossom-spice,
Sleepy and mute from too much riotng
Through early April-silence must suffice
Till days assume the dignity Of spring.
This Is the quiet aftermath that comes
OF too much wind and rain, too loud and harsh
Shouting out violets and trilliums
And young frogs waiting in the meadow marsh.
The wind has tip toed back to the hills
The rain has made no promise to return;
And yet there Is restlessness that fills
This sleepy valley with a strange concern
Then silence yields to one thin, ragged note
Shaped by new rapture in feathered throat

Patrol Boat Reseues
TippIinq Fisherman

A Detroiter who combined a
lot of drinking with a little fish
ing a the Clinton River mouth
Thursday afternoon, last night
was the object of police and
Coast Guard search after his
small boat became overdue and
presumed lost at $50 p. m.
He had left the Charles Mel
drum livery in a 12-foot out
board motorboat at 2:30 p. m. A.,
accompanied by a friend. A few
hours later they returned 10
shore, loaded up" with drinks
from a bottle they carried and
also beer purchased in a tavern.
One of the men remained at the
tavern and the other headed out
20 the lake in the small boat.
His failure to return at $50
p M. precipitated the lax e
search. At GAS p. m, the Coast
Guard radioed its station: MAN

Wage Negotiations Fail
to indicate Accord Near

WASHINGTON, March 30
/ (P) Soft coal wage negotia-
tons floundered today toward
gov ~nment seizure of the mines
and new wartime labor strife.
For few hours, the stalemat-
cd contract. talks appeared head
cd for spectacular eleventh hour
success under the guidance of
Labor Secretary Perkins.
These hopes were dashed,
however, by operator refusal TO
accept her proposals for a new
working agreement 10 replace
the one expiring tomorrow mid
night. Miss Perkins Immediately
certified the case as dispute to
the War Labor Board.
This is the first step toward
possible government control OF
the mines.
The board was expected as its
first move TO propose that the
present contract be extended,
with any eventual wage adjust
ments TO be retroactive. This,
howevc', is point TO which the
operators previously have OBJ
jected vigorously.
The Labor Secretary yester-
day electrified the month old
negotiations by suggesting a
contract which John l.. Lewis
grabbed up almost Immediately
in behalf of his United Mine
Workers.
Miss Perkins then turned TO
the operators, but there her dra-
matte overtures stalled.
In reply handed her just be-
fore midnight, the operators
protested the proposal would
cost S180,000,000 a year, add
S9.48 a week to the average
miners pay and 80 cents to the
cost of ton of coal without
adding a lump to the output"
Miss Perkins, still looking
fresh after hours of persuasive
bargaining, said the operators
also refused to agree to extend
the current contract because of
her insistence on the retroactive
feature.
They also declined to submit
this point to arbitration, fear
ing, they said, possible liability
to pay out the maximum of
LeWis's ID contract demands, es-
timated by the operators to cost
% cents a ton.
In the forefront among the
mine leaders demand was his
l0-cent-a-ton royalty request for
his union, estimated at S60,OOO,-
600 a year.
Miss Perkins said Lewis con-
sented to scrapping this demand
in lieu of her proposal. She told
him, she said, that it had no
place in negotiations carried on
under wartime conditions.
The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1945-03-30

Lewis had no immediate com.
rlent after the operator rejec'
ton was announced.
He gave no hint as to his at.
titude toward carrying out the
overwhelming strike vote taken
Wednesday among his bitumI-
nous miners. The unions estab-
lished policy, however, is nc
contract, no work"
Kiss Perkins proposed ccn-
tract embraced six of LeWis's Ia
proposals in one form or an
o..-er.
She agreed with his demand
for return to 35-hour week,
with overtime for '')rk beyond
the seventh hour daily. The
miners now are spending nine
hours each day underground, in
cludino an estimated As minutes
of portal-to-portal travel and Is
minutes for lunch.
Miss Perkins proposed shift
differentials for the second and
third shifts of four and eight
cents, instead of the 10 and Is
cents asked by Lewis.
She cut in half-to SIS -
the additional vacation allow
ance sought by Lewis. The min
ers now receive $50. He had
asked S100.
She ruled out Lewis's request
that the companies furnish free
explosives to the miners but
agreed they should have free
detonators and caps and various
safety apparel.
She hit compromise on Lew
ISIS request that members of the
crew in mobile units be paid the
same "a the operator. She sug-
gester that these crewmen be
advanced to within 81 day of
the operators rate.
AS for Lewis's demand that
all but one foreman at each
mine be blanketed under union
membership, Miss Perk n S
pointed to a recent National La
Dor Relations Board decision
and suggested Lewis redraft that
particular demand. The NLRB
reversed its previous position
on foremen and ruled that they
constitute a proper collective
bargaining unit.
