The Truman family, residence

family sit down at the same table
and report on bits Of gossip and

II would be rather pleasant II
President Truman would permit
his daughter to hold a press con-
ference now and then. I'd like TO
hear what youth is thinking about
in this postwar world. However,
the decision has been made. There
will be NO public opinions coming
from the distaff side OF this Ad-
ministration.
THERE HAS BEEN much curios-

United States. Will he remain

tative in Washington?
He will remain in Washington
for a month or two. have this on
proper authority. His successor
has not yet been picked.
SOME BRITISH STATESMEN
are already worrying about the
peril OF harsh peace imposed on
the conquered.
The statesmen fear violent up
risings in both Germany and Japan.
They argue this way:
We have cut so much land of
Germany that she is now about
the size of the British Isles. On
this small area we demand that so
million people live. How? BY
agriculture alone.
Inc GermanS are not really an
agricultural people. They are by
nature Industrial. We have taken
their Industries away, forgetting
the enduring German trait of ef-
fciency.
What will such a people be likely
TO do, penned in as they are? Per
haps they'll edge over the borders
and start new troubles.
We have penned Japan and her
80 million people into an area
which will not support them. What
will they do?
They may escape, somehow, the
strongest and most aggressive OF
the lot. And, like the Germans,
they may bring further trouble on
the world again.

Your Health
Kidney Stones
Formed by Salt
Overload

hlQneN stones
Formed by Salt
Overload
By HERMAN N pUNDEsEN. N. T
KIDNEY stones differ greatly
IN their chemical makeup, but all
of them are composed Of salts pres
ent in the kidney excretions. Be
fore kidney stone can form, there
must be some abnormal condition
present in the kidney.
Probably the most important
single cause for the formation OF
kidney stones Is the condition in
which the kidney is putting out Sc
cretions which are overloaded with
a single type Of salt For example,
there is a condition which seems
to run in families, in which the
urine contains q great deal Of .
substance known as cystine.
Gland Secretion
Then there are persons who
suffer from excessive secretion
from the parathyroid glands and
these individuals eliminate an ex-
cessive amount Of lime salts. Both
Of these groups Of persons tend
70 form kidney stones.
A possible explanation for the
formation Of kidney stones Is a
lack of vitamin A in the diet. Such
a deficiency will cause the urine
to be highly alkaline, to contain
great deal Of substances known as
phosphates, and may lead to uri-
nary tract infections.
In certain persons, according 10
Doctor Alexander Randall Of
Philadelphia, the urine is highly
acid and contains a great deal Of
uric acid, due to q disturbance in
the action of the liver. SucA<eJ
sons also tend TO form stones COM
posed of uric acid.
Some stones are made up Of sub
stances known as oxalates. Doctor
Randall thinks that these persons
have some digestive disturbance
and that they eat foods which con-
tain excessive amounts Of oxalates.
There is also q theory that in
fections Of the kidney may be re-
sponsible for the formation of kid
ney stones. However, there is no
definite evidence to prove this idea.
Insofar as the treatment Of
kidney stone Is concerned, surgi-
cal removal is often necessary IL
the stone is large. II 1t is a smaller
stone it often may pass downward,
from the kidney into the bladder
and be eliminated in this way.
There Is always q tendency for
kidney stones to reform.
Stone Analysed
To prevent this, it Is suggested
that when a stone Is removed, 1t
be analysed to determine its make
up. II the stone contains a great
deal Of uric acid salts, it is sug-
gested that the patient be given
some alkaline substance to keep
the urine alkaline at all times. II
the stones are made up of oxalates,
the diet should contain no foods
in which there are oxalates and
the patient may also be given some
alkaline substance. He should also
be encouraged to drink plenty Of
water each day.
It is suggested that the taking
Of large quantities Of water is i'm
portant in the prevention Of kid
ney stones

8OO-SHIP CONVOY IN INVASION
By JAMES HUTCHINSON

By JAMES HUTCHINSON
 GEN. MacARTHUR'S HEAD QUARTERS IN THE PHILIP PINES, Jan. 10.-(AP)-ttoA poo U. s. troops of the Sixth Army forces, who were accompanied ashore by General MacArthur, personally, landed on Tuesday along the 15-mile Lingayen Gulf, on the coast of Luzon Island, it was revealed today.
 An 8OO-ship convoy pushed deep into the flatlands which lead to Manila, 125 miles away.
 It is ideal tank war country and tanks were among the equip ment put ashore, which will be used for a powerhouse offensive from the beachhead, which has been cleared of Japanese.
 With fierce warsnfp shellings and aerial bombings, the lightly opposed Tanks surged inland over the same crescent which the Japanese employed three years ago in their invasion.
 The ground is now dry and suited to war movements.
 A field dispatch disclosed that Gen. Macarthur has already set up his headquarters on Luzon.
 It also said that landings were made in the southern extremity of the gulf, which includes the city of Lingayen.
 Gen. Macarthur is now back on the island, where he fought the losing battles in the opening of the Pacific war. This is the srow- down fight for all the Philip pines.
 The way had been paved by a multiplicity of warships and aer- ial attacks.
