FROM st. Louis Post-Dtspatch.
The political Janus, the Communist
party, has changed its line again. Mr.
Browder, his high-sounding Communist
Political Association, his sleeps eyes for
capital, managerial brains and the NAM,
have been repudiated After IA months
OF artificial opportunism, the comrades
are deserting Morgan and going back
to Marx. The New Masses and the
Daily Worker have chastised themselves
to pulp for taking time out from the
class war to sing paeans of capitalistic
peace, and the Manhattan Center con-
vention has returned the party to the
original doctrines.
Perhaps the most interesting thing
about the reversal is not this further
evidence of classic Communist incon-
sistency-an inconsistency that makes
the party about as much OF menace
In this country as ladies' aid society.
It Is that a Frenchman, NJ jacques
Duclos, acidly criticized the BroWder
line for its desertion of MARKHAM prin-
ciple and forced right-about-fa face

Not Moscow, but Paris, furnished the
catalytic agent for this essentially struc-
tural change, giving the party the

Since vi day we have made little or
no progress toward lasting peace, de-
spite the unqucstionable determination
Of our policy trainers to compromise
every time another explosive situation
appears. Incidents involving Americans
and American property which the Gov
ernment is duty bound to protect are
occurring more frequently than is gen.
orally known. These incidents are de-
scribed by the State Department as
petty" and are generally passed in
silence. The news regarding them hap
pens to leak out either through "un-
authorized sources" or through reporters
who happen to hear about them, they
are brushed aside as inevitable occur
rences which should not be permitted
to interfere with the greater picture
this country has in mind--a lasting
peace by a complete agreement among
the forgers of victory
Other governments realize that there
are smouldering fires in many sections
of the world which could flare up under
certain conditions. Because of these
conditions the British government Is
reported to have slowed down its
own rehabilitation and the French are
endeavoring to increase their military
strength, while the Russians, who at
the end of the war had about 5000 900
men under arms, have allowed only
about 1000, 900 to return to civilian life,
The loss of these overage men does
not affect Russia's military power be-
cause new conscripts are replacing the
soldiers being released.
~ II
The Russian naval force Is still negli-
gible and there Is no definite informa-
tion on whether its personnel is being
reduced. But for a number of reasons
the British Navy is redeploying its rat
ings" at much slower tempo than the
army. Last June the British Navy had
a personnel of 772,000. Up to the first
of September, $4,000 were released. Un-
der the pressure of public demands the
admiralty plans" to reduce the per-
sonnel of 100000 by January l. But
that depends on the general interna-
tional outlook.
Unfortunately we have not yet reched
the happy situation in which diplomacy
need not be backed by strong ma
tional force.

Navy Surgeons
Detour Nerves
New Methods of Restoring
Function to Deadened
Muscles Succeeds.

WASHINGTON. - Navy nerve
surgeons have borrowed a page
from the book of the highway
engineer. They are restoring func
ton to deadened muscle by setting
up "detours" and "road blocks" ir
the human nervous system.
IN battle wounds where nerve
is partly shot away and the ends
are too far apart to be stretched
together, the surgeons change the
course of the nerve.
By such "detouring" the undam-
aged parts of the nerve travel a
shorter course than did the original
nerve, and thus it is often possible
to bring the cut ends together so
that they can be seWed end-to-end.
In numerous cases navy men with
an arm or leg virtually useless have
been returned to duty, says the Chi
cago Tribune.
Sometimes a nerve may be too
far gone to be repaired. In many
instances the surgeons make near
by nerve do double duty. This is
accomplished by lifting tendon
from the muscle fed by the good
nerve and attaching the free end
of the tendon to the muscle in which
the nerve is dead or damaged be-
yond repair.
This technique works particular
ly well in case where a wrist has
dropped" due to damage to a nerve
controlling the muscles of the outer
side of the hand.
Road Blocking Technique.
The "road blocking" technique in
the nervous system is something
entirely different. A nerve is made
up of number of fibers covered
by sheath-similar to telephone
cable. Sometimes in nerve injury
only part of the nerve fibers are
destroyed. Others remain undam-
aged.
Scientists have found that by
pinching these good fibers-not cut
ting them - they cause nature to
work overtime in order to overcome
the interruption in the nerve fibers.
The result has been a branching off
of new fibers from the place of the
pinching, causing the "reinnerva-
ton" of the muscle involved.
Pioneers who applied this tech
nique performed surgical operations
in order to reach undamaged fibers,
and they pinched the fibers with fine
forceps. But within the last year or
so two investigators at California
Institute Of Technology at Pasadena
began developing technique with
out surgical incision.
Their method was to knead a
muscle vigorously with a smooth,
blunt instrument such as the
smooth, round end of a mallet ham
die - concentrating on the point
where the nerve entered the muscle.
Proves Success.
The California investigators II
Lieut.. H. E. Billig Jr., U. S. N. r.,
and DR.. A. Van Harreveld-reported
successful use of this technique in a
of cases, including that of a
woman who had been suffering from |
infantile paralysis of the legs for
many years. They said the patients
power greatly improved fol-
lowing the procedure.

Doctors at San Diego naval hos.
pital are using both the surgical and
manual methods, and Capt. M. D.
Willicutts, medical officer in COM
mand of the hospital, says the re-
suits so far are very promising"
If the manual method can be fur
ther developed, he says, it offers
great hope not only in cases of war
wound damage but in certain or
ganic diseases such as infantile par
alysis.
Asked about nerve "grafts" to re-
pair major gaps in nerves-a tech
nique employed by the Russians and
some American surgeons in this
war - the neurosurgeons at San
Diego said:
eve have tried to avoid nerve
gratis. The results so far have not
shown this technique to be as good
as that of getting the two cut ends
of the nerve together by such meth
ods as changing the nerves
course"
They said the whole approach to
the treatment of injuries to the pc
ripheral nerves-the nerves which
feed the arms and legs - had
changed since the last war.
