BEDFORD SPRINGS, Pa, Aug.
15.-While jubilant Americans cele-
brated with blaring horns, shrieking
sirens and jangling bells outside the
Bedford Springs Hotel last night,
inside a group of impassive jap
anese internees were told of their
country's surrender.
The men of the group, all mem
bers of the japanese diplomatic staff
captured in Germany, were sum-
moned to the assembly room of the
resort hotel about o'clock, a State
Department agent said.
. He said the former Japanese Am
bassador to Germany, Hiroshi
Oshima, then told them:
It am informed by representa-
tive of the State Department that
according to the radio a message
has been received through the Swiss
government announcing that the
japanese government has accepted
the conditions of the Potsdam dec
laration. While this news was re-
ceived here by radio and not by
official communication, there is no
reason to doubt its authenticity.
I'VE are, therefore, commanded
by the Emperor to lay down our
arms. I wish to add that I appre-
ciate all the effort you have made
in this struggle and I feel assured
that while your efforts have not
enabled us to win. you have at
least done your utmost for the
Emperor"
They showed no emotion" the
agent said. They are very placid
people"

The ROAD TO HEALTH
By J. A. LATTIMERE, MD.
Be Selfish With Your Colds

While visiting friends one eve-
ming l noticed that one of their
children, a boy Of seven, was sneez-
ing badly. He was in the early
stages of cold. I was a little hor-
rified that the child was permitted
to play with his younger sister,
aged 3, and that both children were
stuffing themselves with sweets.
Although l was in the house as
a guest, not as a physician, / took
the liberty of suggesting that the
boy be put to bed, that he be kept
away from the baby and from an
older sister until the cold was bet
ter and that he not be allowed to
go to school the following day, for
his own protection and for the pro-
lection of his schoolmates.
The next day I saw Bobby walk
ing down the street to school.
told myself this should be a lessor
to me not to give advice when il
wasn't asked and made a menta
note to watch my step the next
time I visited those friends.
1t was not long before l visited
them again. Only few days Later
l received a call to come to theil
home-professionally this time. AL

three children were ill. Both Bobby
and Betsy, the oldest child, had
bad colds with fever. Nancy, the
baby, had a cold and was complain
ing that her ears hurt.
My chief concern was with
Nancy. One ear was infected. There
was danger infection would reach
the mastoid, spongy bone behind
the ear. If this should happen, the
child might die.
When the ear was punctured, we
were able to drain off the infection
satisfactorily, so it did not pene-
trate to the mastoid. The child re-
covered, but it was long time be-
fore she regained her strength and
was able to play around like a nor
NAL three-year-old.
Meanwhile, both Bobby and Bet
sey had been kept in bed. They lost
three weeks from school.
The illnesses of the three children
and the anxiety Of their parents
might have been avoided if a few
precautions had been taken when
Bobby first caught cold.

not be neglected. While cold it.
self may not be serious, it often so
weakens the system that the germs
of other diseases get stronghold
in some part of the body. These dis
eases may cause great deal of
suffering and may endanger life.
Children particularly are apt to
develop ear trouble and other seri-
Gus illnesses after a cold. Both
young people and adults are apt to
catch other diseases after a cold
because the cold lowers their re-
sistance to germs.
People catch colds from other
people who have them. l do not

that he gave his cold to his two

INCREASE
IN AIR TRAVEL To
MONTANA BY DUDES
NacatiOning Predicted At Re-
cord Figure Soon, Says
Aviation Official

Helena, Sept. 19.-More vacation
bound persons than ever before in
history will use air travel to reach
western dude ranches and other re-
Fsorts in the near future, and Mon
tana is making plans to share in
this source of tourist supply, Dean
Chaffin of Bozeman, president of
the Montana Aviation association,
said here today.
The aviation association is the
aviation division of Montanans, Inc,
the state chamber of commerce, and
has been coordinating its program
for the states aviation future with
the tourist promotion campaign of
Montanans, Inc, itself.
Chaffin pointed out that several
factors, including a great boom in
American air travel, new planes,
faster schedules, cheaper rates and
other inducements, will expedite va
cation travel shortly.
Gan extra day or two at the be-
and end of a vacation if
one plans to visit a spot several
hundred miles from his home town
is what air transportation offers
the vacationist," Chaffin said. "The
farther from home the holiday spot
one seeks is the more air travel will
him at his favorite haunt.
This particularly benefits Montana,
due TO its relation to the big cities
of the east and on the west coast"
Chaffin said the aviation a~ssocia-
ton had been advised already that
major airlines are working out new
type vacation trips, varying from
a circular tour of the United States
TO special week end excursions from
cities to resorts and vacation
spots from three to seven hundred
away. "Plans are to blanket
he country and Montana thus will
benefit to a large degree" he said.
Airlines, he added, estimate that

Look Out For Sudden
Death In Souvenirs
Army Officer Warns

Is there a little "booby-trap'
lurking in your home?
That is the question Colonel A
V. Dishman, ordnance officer for
the Ninth service command, asked
hundreds of persons in the west
who unsuspectingly have sudden
d e - ammunition souvenirs-ir
their homes today.
The army ordnance officer, an
ammunition expert, warned owners
of grenades, shells, fuses and other
wartime items that it is impos-
sible to determine by external ex-
animation if sudden death or pain
full injury turks inside of the SOU
venirs. Disassembly of such articles
by inexperienced persons is ex-
tremely hazardous.
Although the post office has done
an excellent job of detecting such
dangerous items through scientific
methods, a number of servicemen
are returning daily from overseas
with improperly inerted "loot" in
their baggage, Colonel Dishman
declared.
Even though the main charge has
been removed the explosive on
tanned in a fuse or cap is suf-
ficient to cause loss of fingers, a
hand of an eye, if discharged.
Only souvenirs accompanied by
army certificate can be pre-
sumed to be safe, the ordnance Of
ficer warned.
Persons in doubt of the safety
of war souvenirs may arrange to
have them examined by an expert
munition officer by contracting the
commanding officer of any army
post. Those classified as Sudden
will be inerted and returned
to the owner. However, those dis
covered to be too dangerous to
will be retained and taken
to a safe place and destroyed.

REQUESTS TAKE ON

Council Receives Largest Num-
Der In Long Time-EXamines
Fire Truck Bids

Several building permits were is
sued Tuesday evening at a meeting
of the Laurel city council, the first
number of any consequence in a
long time. The requests for per-
mission to build and make additions
and alterations conceded closely
with announcement from Washing
ton that effective Oct. Is all
limits on new construction, includ-
ing house building, are to be lifted.
Three Laurel people asked per-
mission to build new houses. They
were Leo Dietrich, Peter Brano
and Harold S. VanNice. Approval
of a carpenter shop was asked by
Lohof Brothers, a contracting firm,
and permission to make additions
to three business structures "a
sought by DIR. McCauley, John
Moran and Ted Schessler.
Leslie Lane asked for a permit
to build a garage at his residence,
and L. w. Armstrong sought to
remodel a residence.
Because of the war, requests for
and granting of building permits
had become almost unknown at the
hall. The condition was re-
in almost all communities
of the nation, with the result that
America is today short several mil
lion new homes that would have
been built in normal times as re-
placements and to accommodate an
ever-increasing national population
prices on building materials
are to be retained, OPA said.
The city council Tuesday evening
received and examined bids for a
new fire truck and equipment. The
bids were referred to the fire com
