BETTER HEALTH
BY DR.. Herman BundeSen-

GONE time ago we wrote in
~ these columns of the ad-
vantages of a new treatment
for toxic goiter using a drug
known as thiouracil. Readers
will remember we stated at
that time that in toxic goiter
there is an excessive secretion
of thyroid extract by the thy
roid gland, which is located in
the front part of the neck. This
extra secretion produces such
symptoms as loss Of weight and
strength, rapid heart beat in
creased sweat ing. diarrhea.
tremor and in some instances
(when the condition has been
present for some time) pro-
trusion OF the eyes, known as
exophthalmus.
Just what causes toxic goiter
has not as yet been determined.
The condition is a serious one
and il allowed TO persist, may
result in permanent damage 10
the heart, nervous system and
other parts of the body.
Until recent times, surgical
~ removal of most of the
thyroid gland was accepted as
the best treatment for toxic
goiter. In certain instances,
x-ray and radium have been
employed. and in milder cases
the giving of iodine, together
with complete rest and the use
of various sedative or nerve
quieting drugs was somewhat
successful.
Some patients treated with
iodine and rest do seem TO i'm
prove TO such an extent that
operation is not required. In
yer words, the disease seems
just get better. On the
Other hand, many patients
treated in this way for too long
a time suffer such extensive
damage to the tissues that they
succumb to infections or become
mental or physical wrecks.

Secondly, that she has fallen

house she lives in.

And right there is 20 per

EOV. THOMAS +. DEWEY OF
~ New York has raised his
voice above the clamor of trivi-
alities by his address before the
Irish-American Historical So
ciety in which he said that the
world court is "the heart and
soul of all our efforts" at San
Francisco. His argument is:
'Tt would be folly to over
look the fact that a few nations
hold an overwhelming prepon-
derance Of power In this world.
But the right Of nations
must not forever depend upon
their natural resources I'm steel
or oil or magnesium or their
ability to build navies or robot
bombs.
"Al statements of high prin-
ciples or mechanics of debate
and procedure will be worthless
unless mankind comes some
day to recognize that all
peoples, great or small, have
rights-Costa Rica as well as
tho United States, Panama rs
well as Russia, Belgium rs well
rs Great Britain.
The hope of the world today
Is to get on q staircase which
leads to q higher level of In
ternational morality.
Tho large and powerful na-
tions must acknowledge the
principle that as all individuals
are equal before the law Of
their state, all nations are equal
before the law of nations"
THAT is the gist of the problem
Il of lasting peace. The poll
ticians may varnish some sur
face at San Francisco.
But if civilization is the prog
ress of man, then in his collec-
tive state, he ought to be
prepared to progress from war
TO Jurisprudence, from balances
of power to the court of justice,
from "the dominant three" to
the society of man.
We need not be afraid that
San Francisco will do too much
TO form a world court; our fear
is it will do little more than
confirm the tricks of Teheran
and Yalta.
For instance, what did Roose-
welt, Churchill and Stain say to
each other at Teheran and
Yalta about Manchuria?
That question will lead TO an
other world war if Russia,
rather than China, succeeds to
Japan's position there, or if
Russia uses her power and
built by American lend-lease-
to change the government of
China to achieve Russia's goals
in Asia.
THE world court cannot be
Il subordinated TO the author
ity of any nation, or il will fail.
II must be supreme body with
authority TO try any aggressor,
to mete out justice where the
right is. AS Gov. Dewey said:
This means that we must be
