a search next for the knife that had
! pinned Bogarty's card to Sarah's
front door. II was not there.
He then inspected the deadfall it
self. When he had finished. he whis-
tied again, bemusedly. It was n
pretty crude job. Correct in prin-
ciple, but not expert. Too much fric-
ton in the trigger. Calder, to have
set it off upon himself, must have
yanked hard-or lunged into it.
The bear for which it had been in
tended would in all probability have
robbed it safely without causing it
10 drop. Aggie wondered about the
bear. He had not been noticing
things especially as he had walked
, along; his mind had been occupied.
But now he went back to the brook
and skirted it. He satisfied himself
presently. There were at least two
bears in that part Of the mountain.
Bears had been scarce during his
boyhood. They were coming back
and some contemporary youngsters,
probably, had undertaken to catch
! one Of them.
Aggie returned and knelt in or
der further to study the victim. He
noticed one other thing. The man

WASHINGTON. MEANWHILE,
is fractionaly hoping that the
United Nations Security Confer
ence which opens April IS in San
Francisco will not develop into
verbal free-for all, especially in the
light Of an imminent German de
feat.
No formal agreement on the CON
ference agenda has been made, but
the conferees are understood 10
have indicated that the program be
confined TO the Dumbarton OAKS
proposals.
However. some nations already
are rising up and demanding that
the conference discuss trade and
commercial problems and a host ~
other matters which will probably
langthen the original list consid
esbly. Russia's proposal for a null
tiple vote will come in for quite
biz OF discussion.
First indications Tere that the
conference would last about six
weeks but now some quarters are
talking about the meeting extend
ing up 10 three months.
BATTLES IN CONGRESS are

tive proposals the bill giving the

There already have been a few
preliminary skirmishes over these
measures, but both are still in COM
mittees and the heavy fighting IS
yet TO come. Strong opposition has
developed TO both, and the admins
tration must prepare TO meet
strongly supported proposals for
drastic amendments.
CONGRESS is GOING TO FIND
out for itself just how much. II

being used in Europe will be sent

Your Health
Stoppage From
Kidney Requires
Prompt Treatment
By II. y. BUNDEsEN. NJ. D


By II. y. BUNDEsEN. NJ. D
ANY sudden stopping Of the
flow of eXcretions from the kidney
to the bladder will cause acute
pain. This condition is known as
renal collie OF ureteral collie. The
ureter is the tube which leads from
the kidney TO the bladder. An at
tack OF cohc OF this type is most
painful and immediate relief is de
nanded when such an attack
occurs.
The most frequent cause OF re-
nal collie is sudden blocking at the
point where the ureter and the
pelvis OF the kidney join. This
blocking may be due 10 a kidney
stone or a small stone which Is
passed from the kidney pelvis into
the ureter. Ii may also occur when
the ureter becomes sharply bent,
due to the fact that the kidney gets
out Of its normal position.
A typical attack Of renal cohc
causes severe knife-like pain which
passes from the back downward
into the groin. Renal collie can usu-
ally be diagnosed easily from the
character Of the symptoms and the
physical examination Of the pa
tent BY the physician. However,
it is important that the diagnosis
be confirmed by showing the block
ing of the flow Of the urine either
in an X-ray or by passing a tube
into the bladder and the urster.
When pain is due to the kidney
being out Of its normal position,
IL the patient lies with his knees
drawn up to MS chest, the pain
should be relieved. Blood in the
urine is frequent symptom pres
ent in renal colo.
In treating renal collie, even
though the pain is most Severe,
morphine, as a rule. is not given.
II is suggested that a drug known
a. papaverlne be given by injec-
ton under the SKIN. This drug
helps to relieve the spasm which is
causing the pain. The injections
may be given every half hour for
three or more doses. If necessary.
The patient should also be put into
a hot bath. This sometimes will re-
leye the colic A catheter or tube
may oe passed into the ureter and
left in place. This may relieve the
blocking. II none of these things is
effective, a spinal anesthetic may
be employed or there are certain
snesthetics which may be given by
injection into a vein.
After an attack Of renal colo
has been relieved, an effort must
be made TO determine the cause for
the difficulty. II il is due to
stone, some cases may require an
operation. In other instances, the
stone may pass through the ureter
and out OF the body without any
operative treatment. Kinkin: OF
bending of the ureter may also re-
quire surgery for complete relief.
Renal collie is painful and serious
disorder, and demands immediate
treatment oy the physician.
