HONE NURSE
By Iona l.. TROTT

A patient confined to bed,
even for a few days, often suf-
fers acutely from muscular tens
ion, pressure and WEAKNESS due
to lack of exercise. 1t is amaZ-
ing how a really comfortable
bed can change into a place of
torment when one has to stay
there.
There is nothing more conduc-
i've to complete relaxation than
to sink back in the depths of
two or three soft fluffy pillows.
In the sickroom there should be
many pillows, clean, well-aired
and fresh smelling. Baby pill
lows, medium sized pillows.
even the old-fashioned round
bolster can be used
There are many ways to use
the baby pillow. 1t may be
placed between the knees to pre-
vent the pressure of one leg rest
ing on the other, or between the
ankle bones when the patient is
lying on his side. 1t may be tuck
ed in at the small of the back to
give just the right amount of
support and relieve strain. 1t
may be placed at the back of the
neck, to help relax the muscles
and nerves. 1t may be used to
relieve the pressure on a sensi-
tive shoulder blade, elbow, or
ear.
PILLOWS GIVE SUPPORT
The round bolster can be used
under the knees when the pa
tents position, and to take the
lieve the leg muscles. 1t is very
comforting when tucked in along
the back to reinforce the pa
tents posiaion, and to take the
strain off the back muscles. It
ID very helpful, too, when placed
at the front of the patient, for
him to rest one leg on.
A large soft pillow may be
used to support the abdomen
when the patient is turned on his
side, or to support the arms
when the patient lies on his
back.
When pillows are used to prop
the patient up in bed there
should be at least three pillows.
The three pillows permit a grad
ual build-up from shoulders to
head-one pillow under shoul-
ders, one overlapping it under
the neck, and the third overlap
ping that to support the head.
This arrangement keeps the
spine in a fairly straight line
and protects the patients pos
ture.

A New York City school teacher has gone to

lions for active tuberculosis Under present law all
school employees who come in contact with children

Those found to have active tuberculosis receive part

The teacher contends thot the law should apply

UNHAPPY BIRTHDAY

lawmakers approved the law is. Twenty-Five tow

ed) Six dsopproved it would vote for repeal. Two

Even more remarkable was the foct thot, al
though dozen or SO would like to see the law

typicol quotation was this: ut hasn't done any good
and I'd be FOR any bill that is better, but have
no ideos"
Most remarkable Of all was this statements u
voted for on the representation that it anti

law later that it wasn't, so have little regard for

The prevention Of wartime strikes in essential indus

lead you can select. You figure
that this opening will establish
the queen of diamonds to cash

work out that way here. With
the king of diamonds opening,
South makes seven-odd. He can

WASHINGTON - A sup r
"River Basin Development
Board which would take over
Tennessee Valley Authority and
control all postwar regional de-
velopment projects has been de-
signed by Secretary of Interior
Harold L. 1ckes, with himself as
top man. It's his answer to the
Missouri Valley Authority pro-
posed by Sen. James E. Murray,
Cd. Mont.).
The three-way tug Of war over
MVA is expected to flare into
the nations hottest postwar is
sue. Senator Murray would
have the ten Missouri Valley
states included in a 50-year So
cial and economic program pat
termed after the successful IVA.
Regional control of the water for
irrigation, soil con e nv a ton,
flood control, hydro electric
power, and navigation is the
crux of the plan.
Ickes' board would include
the Secretary of Interior as boss.
Secretary of Agriculture, Chief
Of Engineers of the War Depart
ment, and heads of IVA and
other regional projects which
would be created. Policy max
ing and overhead controy of the
river valley authorities set up
by Congress would be exerted
by the board within the broad
outlines Of the proposed law.
COMPLEX LINEUP
Proposal of this super-board
Is the latest maneuver in the
MVA tussle. Thus far it has sim
mered down to a three sided
struggle: those who favor the
authority" plan with control in
the region; Ickes and the Army
engineers who want to run the
show from here; and those in
terests fatty fighting the whole
idea.
The lineup is complex, with
many interests still on the fence.
This is natural over a plan di-
rectly involving one-sixth of the
area of the United States and the
economic future of more than
100000 people in a 5O-year So
cial revolution. Use of the water

struggle.
Massed behind the idea of an

Of the press. liberal farm groups,
and labor.
Lineup on the Ickes team is
not as clear-cut. His Bureau of
Reclamation and Army engin-
GERS did all the preliminary
planning for the valley, but their
aims clashed. Army wanted to
use the valleys water for newt

Crosby, who led the singing,
was wearing an old gray sweat

Everyone on the lot was there

from everybody.

said. We've got direct tele-

THE LYRICS ARE THEIRS
Songwriters Johnny Burk e
and Jimmie Van Heusen beamed
approval as Joe Lille start to
thump the piano. Swinging On
Star" is their baby. So are the
lyrics.
Crosby started to Groom:
"Wouli you like to swing on a

Sonny Tufts picked 1t up:
"A ham is an actor whe believes

His head gets bigger and his
smile does, too.
The only kind Of acting he can
do.
So if you don't mind the critics

Everybody came in on the cho-
rus. Then it was Lamours turn:
"Lamour is an actress and she

She lives on islands and she
sings song,
And gets pneumonia in an old
sarong."

She looks like ev'ry night was

--"She can be nasty with the

swing at Bob Hope:
"A snoo Is an actor who will tell
you he's tops,

came for the real battle, Army
and Reclamation peri or m d
what is generally called a "shot-
gun wedding" They consolidate
ed their interests and ironed out
the major difficulties in order to
present united front to Con-
gress and opponents. Conces-
sions were made on both sides
but the agreement is believed to
be workable.
Ickes and the Army already
have a toe-hold on developing
the valley in the form Of the
1914 Flood Control Act. It gives
them S200,000,000 apiece to start
the engineering work on the
project as soon as the war Is
over.
Out and out opponents to the
MVA are numerous and work
ing hard against it. But they all
have a slightly different axe to
grind. The states rights people
are constantly fighting any Fed
eral encroachment, but forced to
decide, would probably favor
Ickes' plan. The Bureau of Re-
clamation has been with them a
long time and they are used to
it.
The powerful National Re-
clamation Association, composed
of irrigation interests in the Up
per Basin, thinks the 1914 Flood
Control Bill goes about as far as
government activity should 60
in the valley. They say it's o. X.
for Uncle Sam to subsidize irri-
cation and power projects that
aren't profitable for private pro-
motion, but to stop there.
CITE BENEFITS
1t is the opinion of many in
dustrialists that America should
cut down on agricultural produc-
ton to permit large foreign i'm
ports and thereby foster trade
relations for sales of our manu-
featured goods abroad. For vari-
Gus reasons important trade in
tercsts in the large cities of the
Lower Basin are also fighting
further development of the val
ley.
Proponents of the MVA idea
have a strong case. In three
years floods caused $12l 900, 900
damage. In one year 900, 900
acres of good farm land were
ruined. Wasted power resources,
impoverished farmers, river pol
luton add other trenchant argu-
ments for the authority"
scheme.
Here are some of the benefits,
proponents say. IL MVA Is ap-
proved: Food production would
be increased Sl00,500,000 year
ly. More than 10000 new fam
lilies would have prosperous
farms on the newly irrigated
land. 1t would end bankruptcy
as result of floods and
droughts. Construction of the
plan alone would provide jobs
for at least 100000 men for five
years. More than 100000 farms
would get electric power for the
first time.

underground parliament which,
though 1t could not itself func-
ton as a government, at least
saw to it that there was no Pol.
ish collaboration with the Ger.
mans.
At the head of the under
ground movement In Poland was
a chief delegate who also ranked
as Vice-Premier of the London
Polish Government in Exile.
This was Jan Jankowski who,
next to the military leader and
the only non-political leader,
Gen. Leopold Okulicki, was per-
haps the biggest catch in the
Russian 16-man bag.
ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDEST
Jankowski was a labor leader,
a lifelong member Of the Chris
tian Labor Party. After the Pill
sudski coup in 1925, Jankowski
withdrew from politics and de-
voted all his efforts to labor un-
ion organization. During the
Warsaw uprising last fall, jan
kowski was awarded the high
est Polish military decoration
for conspicuous gala try,
though he was not a soldier.
To charge man with such a
record as being pro-German
seems fantastic. This is equally
true of Kazmierz Puzak, per-
haps the third most important
personality detained by the Rus
slams. Puzak's record shows that
in 1905 he was arrested and
sentenced to death for leading
an uprising against the Car. His
sentence was committed to i'm
prisonment, but he was liber-
ated by the Bolshevek revolu-
ton in 1917. He returned to Pol
and, entered politics, became
secretary general of the Social
list Party, was founder of the
underground. and escaped de-
lection all through the war.
A fourth leading figure among
the Russian captives is Wincenty
Witwos, for the last 35 years
head Of the Peasant Party and
three times premier of the old
Polish government.
The other IL political cap
tives, as far as general Ameri-
Gun knowledge is concerned,
are unknown, largely unpro-
nounceable and frequently UNI
spellable names, except to read
ers of the Polish-American press.
Yet because they may become
symbols of Polish persecution
in celebrated incident that may
we'll spread dissension among
the Big Three, they should be
better known.
RED ACTION BIG SURPRISE
Included are national party
leaders Tadeuscz Kobylanski,
publisher and senator; Zbigniew
Stypulkowski, lawyer and stu
dent leader; Stanislaw Jasiuko-
wicz, cabinet member and doc
tor of economic science.
Christian Labor Party leaders
Jozef Chacinski, party chair
man; and Franciszek Urbanski,
secretary general of the Farm
Laborers' Union.
Peasant Party leaders Kali
mierz Baginski, imprisoned for
radical left wing activities; STAN
islaw Mierzwa, leader of the rad
ical Peasant Youth Association;
and Judge Adam Bien, a cabinet
member.
Democratic Party members
Czernik and Michalowski.
Socialist Antoni Paidak, for
mer Deputy Mayor of Crakow.
When, March 30, three days
after their disappearance, a full
report of the incident was sent

people believed it. The treachery
of forcibly OBTAINING plenipoten-
tiaries for whom safe conduct
to London had been arranged
was so great that only the Poles
gave it credence till 1t was con-
firmed by Foreign Commissar
v. M. Molotov in San Francisco.
