According to the Dairymen's League Cooperative Association of New York, dairy farm production costs are generally up about six per cent above last year. As a result, dailymen are headed for the Well-known spot again. Prices have long since been frozen at artificially low levels to hide rising costs. Relief must come through further expansion of the already existing evil of subsidies. More than ever farmers will be dependent upon govern ment handouts. They dislike and fear such subterfuge but they are helpless. They hope that some day costs will be faced squarely and paid directly by con- SumerS.

ONE-MAN SHOW
(NeW York Herald Tribune)


 Mayor La Guardia's single minded crusade against the baser human passions has involved him in curi- ous contradictions. He will squeeze laWbreakers until the pips squeak if the law that is broken happens to meet his own standards. In re- spect to rationing, for example, he has given the Office of Price Ad- ministration such thorough co-op- eration as to raise loud walls from the meatless and has set a standard of enforcement which would really make rationing work if it were adopted on nationwide basis At the same time he has made many constructive suggestions for alter ing the program. For that he de- serves full marks.
 But when a law does not meet with the mayors approval it does not exist for him He refuses to countenance gambling-and his ac- tion is fair enough. to the extent that the law also refuses to coun- tenance it. To carry his dislike of gambling, however, to the point of refusing to provide police protec- ton for a perfectly lawful enter prise-horse racing-because it in- wolves furnishing protection for peo- pie engaged in a form of gambl- inC expressly permitted by the state constitution is nothing less than an abuse of his office.
 The mayor in withdrawing police from the racetracks within city limits, cannot take refuge in the plea that he represents local public opinion. He has made some refer ence to the need for police else where. an argument which under present conditions. might have . certain validity if he had not viti- ated it by some gratuitous wise-

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

Nicotinic Acid for Canker Sores My sister suffers cruelty from frequent canker sores. A friend told her you recommended nicotinic acid as remedy. Miss w. H. Answer-Buenos Aires physicians reported that daily doses of about 150 mg. of nicotinic acid (three doses Of 50 mg. daily) give rapid relief and bring about quick heal ing of so-called canker sores.

 What, No Snakebite?
 Suffering from neuritis - back shoulders, arms. Heard that one ounce prickly ash berries in one pint of whiskey will relieve or cure it. What is your opinion?
 GA. W. LD Answer-It is worthless, perhaps harmful. Better have medical ad- vice.

 There will be lot of people, |" he says, who will feel that ration regulations should be liberaliZed. But I don't hold to that opinion. feel that the war against Japan will necessitate as much rationing and price control as beforehand probably even more"
 Gasoline, for example, will prob ably be needed in larger quantities than ever for the long Pacific dist ances. The honest majority, how ever, will gladly sacrifice an easier time now to bring closer a final vic- tory and an early relaxation of all vital wartime controls.

THESE WOMEN

Some time ago you published an article on dysmenorrhea (olffcuis or painful menstruation), and as remember. you attributed most oe it to neglect of education. You may be right as far as you go, put I question any mans ability to appreciate the misery most women have to endure. But if edu. cation can alleviate this age old suffering of women, I'm for it. have a daughter whom would pro. tect. If I knew how. But l douol that education alone will remedy this inherent feminine weakness Most women know the cause o1 their pain but that knowledge ooes not alleviate the discomfort. o9 please bring on this education oi which you speak. Tens of tnou- sands of us can use it. But 1o1 pete's sake please refrain from dls. counting a woman's ever present scourage. (And on and on for two more pages in the same veln.

 We'll. hang onto your maKe-up girls. Here we go again.
 The woman whose letter we take as text for today illustrates what mean. Like millions of her sex. many thousands of them high school or college graduates, she betrays her stupidity first by aS- suming that when I say dysmenor- rhea is in most instances due to neglect of education I necessarily refer to mental development only, Honect education includes develop ment of the body as well as de< velopment of the mind.
 The correspondent betrays her stupidity in the second place by de- manding that I give tact consent to the benighted notion that wom- en are fated to suffer pain, dis- comfort or disability just because they are women. That's the crown- ing piece of stupidity, if l know what stupidity means.
 I'm ashamed to confess I can't discuss this important question as frankly and as plainly as it should be discussed in this column.
 But I have pamphlet Hygiene for Girls and Health for Women" which may mean the difference be- tween years of comfort and years of discomfort and disability. Ask for a copy in writing-a clipping will not suffcie-and inclose stamp ed envelope bearing your address.

HONEST CITIZENS
(NeW Haven Journal Courier)

(NeW Haven Journal Courier)
 Only about five per cent of cit- izens appearing before ration boards try to chisel more than their share. The other ninety?five are honest and willing to accept what ever is necessary. So says Frank E. Dempsey, Municipal Court proba- tion officer, head of Cleveland Ration Board since August of 1942
 Dempsey, who says that the knowledge of people gained in his regular job has helped him spot the encouragingly small percentage of chiselers, admits that the difficult

He got Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek out as Premier of China and put his friend T. V. Soong in despite the fact that the two brothers-in law hate each other.
 Moreover, he did this largely by photograph.
 For many years, Corcoran has been a close friend of T. V. Soong, brother of Madame Chi ang Kai-Shek. Corcoran was one of the most ardent battlers for opening the Burma road and get ting supplies to China. So, when Soong came to Washington last month, Corcoran put his fa- nous brain to work to get some token, significant to the Chinese, which would signify Soong's in- fluence with the Truman admin iStration.
 He figured that a photograph of Soong with the new Presi- dent of the United States, plus the Secretary of War, plus the Secretary of the Navy. plus the Secretary of State, would do the trick.
 So Corcoran got his close friend, Secretary of the Navy Forrestal. to arrange for the photo in the rear garden of the White House. Next day, there was featured on the front pages Of many news papers a picture of the Chinese Foreign Minister with Truman Stettinius, Stimson and Torres tai.
 CHINESE FACE
 The effect on China was cleo trifying. No other visiting dig nitary had ever appeared in such a picture. Not even British Foreign Minister Eden. nor Molo- toy, nor French Foreign Minister Bidault.
 In China, face" counts almost more than anything. And man who is close to the top leaders of a government which is the main benefactor of China auto mattcally rates tops at home.
 In addition, T. V. Soong brought home the bacon in other respects. He got final promise of the U. s. gold previously earmarked for China. A nd he worked hard on U. S. officials to get 5000 tons of cotton goods sent to China per month. This latter request riled the Army, already short on tex tiles. Also it will hit civilian sup plies of cotton goods. So Soong got no definite promise.
 But with his prestige suffi- ciently enhanced by the photo, T. V. SOong flew to become Premier of China.
 NOTE: Part of Soongs argu- ment to U. s. Cabinet members who are considered anti-Rus- sian was that the Chungking gov ernment needed to be strength ened as a bulWark against Mos COW. To liberal cabinet members, Soong argued that if his prestige was built up, he would be strong enough to go to Moscow and work out deal Tor cooperation With the northern Chinese Commun- iStS.
