TTIIS Interpretation that "ths

Office" thus has become quite
commonly accepted in Congress,
where there is also prevalent a
disinclination to mention the
matter on the grounds that
You cannot attack the army"
Their final observation about
the unwisdom Of attacking the
army in war times is certainly
true. The opening of that lid
would bring pandora as well as
corrections. When a general is
appointed, for instance, it is
considered fatal to morale to
criticize him before he is re-
moved or transferred. Conf
dence must be maintained even
IL not warranted. So also with
his acts. This may sound un-
warranted but it is unbroken
custom.
Congress or the press, of
course, is not entirely cornpe-
tent to criticize all military
matters In any confident detail
during war time in view of the
limited information made avail
able, although certainly specific
acts of glaring deficiency or un-
becoming conduct can be fairly
observed.
This situation unfortunately
covers many a sin, much in
competence. much waste-and
much civilian control by the
army in addition to purely mill
tary matters. But the bad is
apparently not extricable from
the necessary good.

Unlike Poland and China,
~ the two countries that have
paid the heaviest penalties for
being on our side in this war,
Romania tried TO play it safe
and lost.
Romania is now a vassal of
Soviet Russia as she had been
the vassal of Germany.
Romania switched to Soviet
Russia when Germany's defeat
was assured.
There was, for a moment, a
glimmer of self-respect but il
flickered out and now Stain is
the master as Hitler used to be
the master.
Romania has been shifted from
one column 10 the other.
And TO most Americans, II will
not matter much really, just as
the fate OF Poland or China or
any other country leaves them
cold in the face of the prospect
of a shortened war.
Most Americans say:
eff Stain wants ROmania, let
him have 1t, We don't want IL
and won't take IL on a bet"
And what is more, m os I
Americans want this war over
and are willing TO pay heavily
TO bring it to an end.-
THAT, too. is an over-simpli-
Il fication. What we have been
told repeatedly by our rulers, in
the Atlantic Charter, in the
propaganda concerning Moscow,
Tehran, Yalta, Dumbarton
Oaks and San Francisco. is that
a new world is in the making,
world that will be just and
that will maintain the peace.
There are TO be no aggressor
nations.
There are to be only peace
loving nations.
When Stain sets up his own
government in Romania, as he
has done in Poland and as he
apparently plans to do in China

aggressor.
And, from a moral stand
point. il cannot matter at all
whether the aggressor is on our
side or on the other side,
whether we like or dislike the
aggrieved country.

he is in a hurry to establish the

meets so that everything will be
a fait accompli by then.

BETTER HEALTH
BY DR.. Herman Bundesen

THE sulfonamide drugs. Of
L which we have heard SO
r much of late, are not antitoxins.
That is, they do not neuralize
poisons formed by germs.
They do seem 10 act directly
on germs either 10 stop their
growth or 10 destroy them.
But 10 have these effects. the
drugs must reach the germs IN
sufficient quantities. They have
no effect on the germs in the
secretions coming from an in
fected area nor on the germs in
an abscessed cavity. They have
the greatest effect when the
germs are in the body fluids, as
In blood infections or menin-
gifts. Once pus formation has
started in the ear. the sulfona-
rr1ide drugs cannot be expected
10 stop IL.
THERE are several reasons.
l. then, why sulfonamide
drugs must be used carefully in
treating ear infections. Most
acute ear infections clear up
without the mastoid bacy OF the
ear being infected. Now and
= then. when the sulfonamide
. drugs are used, the symptoms
of ear infection disappear al
though the infection is still
continuing. Then IL may spread
into the mastoid cells without
any warning signs. In such in
stances the condition may
progress TO such an extent that
a serious outcome results.
The sulfonamide drugs also
often cause reactions.
They are best used when
given in large doses. with the
patient in bed under constant
observation. The urine must be
tested each day for the presence
OF blood cells or albumin, and
the blood also must be ex-
anined at least once during the
course of treatment 10 make
sure there is no destruction of
blood cells. If blood is found in
the urine, or there is albumin
present, the use OF the sulfona-
mide drugs must be stopped.
and II there appears 10 be any
storage in the blood cells no
