When you ask the question
What does Joseph Stain
want?" you find quite direct and
simple answers.
Joseph Stain wants quite an
increase Of territory for his
already largest country on earth,
a country that since it is a
complete dictatorship Is there
fore the truest empire that the
world has ever known.
Secondly. Joseph Stain wants
arrangements In all Of Europe

the growth of any organized
power In either continent 70 the

Franklin D. Roosevelt interested
in his own career more than
any other consideration, Mr..
Churchill must give first atten-
tion now to the first job he has
assigned himself which Is the
job Of saving the empire.
THUS far Moscow has shown
L no inclination to grant ease
ment at all to the British EN-
pire anywhere in the world.
Thus far Russian influence Is
opposed to the continuation of
the British Empire IN India and
is certainly unfavorable to the
restitution Of that empire in
Hong Kong and Malay and to
its expansion throughout the
former Dutch dominion.
Russian influence In France
and Belgium and Italy and
Greece has been opposed to Brit
ish prestige and power.
Even in Africa such Russian
influence az reaches that conti-
nent seem quite clearly to be
opposed to the expansion of the
British Empire there.
The German people have be-
leved consistently that the time
-mast- come when IN order to
save the empire Britain would
have to take Germany some way
or other into the British sphere
of influence, but instead of that
Germany seems to be coming

that this has been purposely ar

WHAT happened 10 your first

Did il bre k up over the
woman who is now your wife?
one can only guess at the 60
ings-on which led 10 the present
unhoiy mess.
But your spineless detection
in d G ling with her, end her
rude contempt for you (except
when you are in the money!
suggests that she played you for
a sucker from the first.
Both Of you seem long since
bitterly disillusioned with what
YOU got when you espoused each
other.
You are trying, in panic, 10
shut out the past and you see
nothing in the present setup or
future prospect TO make life
worth living.
Because Of this you are sink
ing into a condition Of mental
depression and physical lethargy
which your wife calls crazy
and lazy" She's right in think
ing your limbs and organs are
sound.
But you are soul sick with
disappointment and bad con-
science
/ daresay your one decent
gesture of faithfully contrib
uting 70 your children's support
-Ty uonc ds much 20 safve your
Conscie ence as 10 meet the
courts order
Your difficulties are rooted in
the kind Of person you are.
Merely 10 leave her would not
solve anything much.
You need 10 learn what's
wrong with you and how 20
change for the better-how 10
act your age-before you break
traces again.

II is not an easy matter 10
tell when certain symptoms are
due 10 some actual disease OF
body tissues and when they are
due 10 a nervous disturbance.
For example, the condition
known as neuroclrculatory as
thenia is believed sometimes 10
be brought on by worry over
strain and anxiety. In this dis
order there are such symptoms
as rapid beating Of the heart,
snortrrSS or rrc7tf1, f1ffCur,
dizziness, pain over the heart,
headache, fainting, diarrhea and
poor appetite.
But these same symptoms
may also occur In patients IN
the early stages OF toxic goltcr,
which is a condition in which
there is an excessive amount Of
secretion from the [ h yro q
gland.
Neurocirculatory aSthenia is
more common among women
than men. and IL is not unusual,
ccording 20 Doctors Iii
MoschCowitz and Scion ). Bern
stein of New York, for toxic
goiter toN develop in patients
with neurocirculatory asthenla.
Excessive sweating OF the palms
and IN the armpits, and a feel
ing of weakness and tirednesS,
occur in patients with either Of
these disorders. Neither dis
ease is common in the very
young or the very old, and
.ither one Is more likely 10
Yevelop in persons whose fami-
lies show a history Of nervous
disorders.
ONE OF the important tests 20
~ be carried out in making a
diagnosis of toxic goiter is the
basal metaboliSm test This
test is done by having the
patient breathe into a tank and
then measuring the amount Of
oxygen which is used up in a
given period Of time. In the
early stages Of toxic goiter, the
metabolism rate may be nor
NAL, but after a time the rate
increases. In neurocirculatory
asthenia the metabolism rate is
not changed.
