This the first of two articles by Curt Riess, NEA correspondent in Germany dealing with the func- tioning of the Allied Military Government in the American-oc- cupied zone.
 BY CURT RIESS
 Copyright 1945 NEA Service Inc.
 Supreme. Headquarters Allied Ex- peditionary Forces, June 25-By weird mixture of practically" and illogic, our military governments in Germany are making anti-Nazis wonder whether they made a mis- take and got onto the wrong side of the theological fence.
 The "practicality' consists in re- taining active Nazis in key govern mental and industrial posts because, as result of experience they knew how to get administrative results. The illogic appears in many guises. The net result is that those who were active Nazis before the sur- render now occupy distinctly pre- ferred positions under our occupa- tion rule.
 Touring occupied Germany I have talked with many Germans as well as with Allied officers, and here are few examples of the things have found:
 In "Landkries Rosenheim"-that area in Southern Bavaria extending from Munich to Chiemsee, there are about 50 towns. Only Il new anti Nazi mayors have been installed, while about 40 Nazis continue to function. Not because we haven't got around to tossing them out. We did remove many of them-then reinstalled them.
 RE-INSTALL NAZIS
 In Bad Rastenberg and Blanken- hain towns, not far from Weimar, the well known Socialist anti-Nazi governing president of Thuringia, Dr. Herman Louis Brill, installed new anti-Nazi mayors. Our military government promptly threw out

Diagnosing Ills Of The Digestion

THE nervous system is the part
of US that feels and has sensations,
but not even the nervous system
obtrudes itself as often into u
consciousness as the digestive sys-
TEN. Nor is even the nervous sys-
tenn as sensitive to various psy-
cholOgic stimuli.
A disagreeable sight or bad
news or a quarrel is just as likely
TO make one ~nauseated as it is to
affect the nervous system in any
way.
Primitive Organ
This can be rationalized by say
ing that the digestive system is
the old primitive organ. In the
lowest form of animal life, and in
the earliest days of our Develop
ment, we are stomach and lntes-
tine before we are anything else.
But besides that, the digestive
system is very well supplied with
nerve pleXuses and has many con-
nections with the central nervous
system The solar plexus was the
part that got into popular knowl-
edge first, but there I many
pleXuses besides the solar all along
the length of the digestive canal
and these are connected on the one
side to the central nervous system
ard on tie other to other pleXuses
Of the digestive tract.
So on the one side an emotional
state may be transmitted to the
stomach or intestines and on the
other a local condition in the in
teshne, let US say, may be trans
mftted'to other parts and show up
as stomach or nervous symptoms.
Form of Indigestion
To put this in a different way,
when a doctor has found that a
person under his care has a form
of indigestion which is not due to
organic disease he can begin to
figure whether it is emotional in
origin or reflex.
The first step in solving a prob
lem in indigestion then is to de-
eide whether there is any real or
ganic disease present. And this is
no simple task. One can envy the
fellow who knows he has acid in
digestion and that all he needs is
plenty of soda.
He goes along in the happy be-
lief that he has solved everything
that acid stomach is an entity.
that there is nothing else behind
it, and when he has Gained the
symptoms with soda, everything
is restored to normality.
Pitfalls and Blind Alleys
But the digestive tract is a
long and winding road, lined witt
pitfalls and blind alleys and sub
iect to all sorts of arrangements
The first step for the physician
who would successfully treat q pa
Henderson daily dispatch., 1945-03-06
Ry Chic Young

tent of this kind is to get him to
tell the most complete story or
history of all his symptoms. Then
the whole man must be examined
from head to foot.
Then the blood and the digestive
secretions must be submitted to
laboratory examinations by chem
zeal and micrOscopical means. The
X-ray is called into action and all
the course Of the digestive tract
examined and outlined. Only then
is there a possibility Of deciding
whether stomach ulcer, ga!lstOnes,
inflammation of the small on large
intestine or appendix trouble IS
present.
1t seems like a large order when
there are so many sick people of
this sort, but nothing short Of this
is prope~ consideration for the
people Of the present sclentlnc
age.
