fering from repeated outbreaks or boils for the past year.
 CR. T., R. M Answer-Several pages about boils in Save Your Skin" booklet rec commended to c. W. Mel. above. Per- haps your husbands occupation is a factor-machine workers often suffer boils from infection of cut ting oil mixture or rather pollution by other workers with boils. Con- stant handling of oil, gasoline and other solvents and use of strong hand cleansers, leaves skin in dried out irritated state, subject to in- lection. Printers, mechanics, ma chine workers should invariably apply little castor oil and lanolin mixture to clean dry hands after washing up.

FT nET TnE RHEuMATIZ

AA A 0MA AAA1 A4AA8gNAm m AA4 A long time ago you assured somebody who had taken you to task for telling the harum.scarum young people that dampness, in- sufficient clothand exposure to cold cause no illness that one thing you never worried about was the pros- pect of getting the rheumatiz some day" from carelessness about that. You won a new "fan" by that, and I'm still doing fine on your teachings. (F. R. W) Not a twinge as yet. I'm still rolling somersaults every morning and good old Charlie H ---'s bowls (won in a raffie) nearly every afternoon. I believe the morning rolls and the bowling both ontri- bute much toward keeping me from getting old. Believe me, am not fooling about this.
 However, if had chronic rheu- matism, or anything that behaved like joint disability not obviously the result of injury of the affected joint. I'd want treatment along these lines:
 i. An adequate diet-adequate in caloric value of fat, protein and carbohydrate, in vitamin and mineral content, in biological value of proteins( that is, they should supply all of the essen- tial amino-acids). Of course this would be a mixed diet = include fair proportions of meats, fish, fowl, eggs, milk, vegetables, fruits, cereals, nuts and no freak or fad stuff. No nonsense about "red and white meat, no hokum about "acid ash" or alkaline ash" foods or about "acidosis."
 9. Daily sunbaths or ultraviolet lamp treatments.
 3. I'd supplement my regular diet with from 15O0 to 2500 LISP. XII units of vitamin D daily, since natural foods do not sup- ply enough vitalnin D.
 1. I'd see to 1t that my diet in" cluded plenty of calcium, (milk, cheese, egg-yolks, turnips. car- rots, peas, beans, nuts, peanuts, greenS).
 5. I'd keep on hand a supply of plain wheat and chew a hand full once or twice a day - it makes gum seem insipid. I'd grind some wheat coarsely in coffee grinder or other mill and eat a dish of it cooked to my taste as breakfast food.
 6. If I could wangle 1t I'd live in an equable climate where one can be reasonably comfortable out of doors all the time with a minimum of clothing.
 ' For lameness and stiffness I'd have diathermy treatments. g. If I found the disability gain- ing on me in one or more joints I'd want to try daily hypodermic or intramuscular injections of parathyroid hormone for a few weeks. This is all I can tell about it-for further details consult your physician.
 Q. Rheumatiz or no rheumatiZ I'd take my Iodin Ration every day,

DRAR MARY FfAWORTTf. I nn

DEAR MARY KfAWORTTI. I am
 girl lb years of age and I feel that ! need someone eise's advice before toll my parents my problem. About 0 year ago 1 began golne with Q crowd Of boys and girls who arc much older ii years and actions than I. A couple Of months ago the boy that I have been going with gave Q party and asked the crowd and myself over.
 We had a very nice time until Che others left. Then he told me he would take me home ii1 Q few minutes. Well, we were alone on the way home and we both lost control of our emotions. Now l lind that I am pregnant, and I realize that I have ruined my life and his. l have told him of my condition and he said he hadn't intended it to be that way, that 1t was entirely my fault, and that if ever tell my parents he was inc volved, he will get even in some way.
 Please consider my situation and help me to find Q way to break it to my parents. l know that they love me, but they never could be- lieve that I could have done such a thing. I will not do anything un- til I receive your advice.
 INTERMEDIARY
 COUNSEL NEEDED
 DEAR M. O.: Most families in average circumstances have long time doctor to whom they turn in emergencies requiring medical care. And perhaps also your parents are church-going people; or. at any rate, consider themselves tradition ally affiliated with some particular denomination.
 Therefore, since words and cour- age fail you at the prospect of ad- initting this problem to your par cnts-knowing, as you do, what a shock 1t will be-it may be wise, and @ real help to them, to turn first to a doctor who has served in times past as the family doctor. Or to a pastor who would look on your parents as members of his fold, even though they may be backslid- CTS from religious practices in adult years.
 Either doctor or clergyman would be a completely trustworthy con- fidant in this crisis; and their vaca- tional training and knowledge of human frailty equip them to handle your problem constructively, not with shocked condemnation of mis- guided conduct.
 Also, since you are minor, these or any other reputable consultants would feel duty-bound to draw your parents attention to the problem at once.

. CHOICE MORsEL
1t Says Here
. By BOB HOPE

Spent several days at the Riv- iera Country Club following the nations top golfers up hill and down dale in the recent Los An- geles Open" and it made me feel like 8 goat. And when realize l was silly enough to bet against Byron Nelson, know that I'm one.
 Lord Byron did everything with a golf club but butter his bread, and if we'd had any butter he'd have done that. Watched him closely to see if I could improve my game and know what's the trouble. I'm too close to the ball <. after I hit 1t. Although l did play in the open one time .. 1t was that unhappy morning when I swung too hard with those
 The other golfers had heard that Byron was going to give up golf as soon as he had some reg istered cattle for his Texas ranch and when he walked up to the first tee the last day, there were two prize Herefords waiting for him.
 And those golfing crowds are so different. I mean you never hear anyone shout miss it, you bum"
 two cops told me as they led me away toward the parking lot.
 I wanted to be dressed comfort ably for the walk, so borrowed my brothers CT shoes. It was highly unfortunate. Every time Nelson would crack one of the tee, the shoes would drag me be- hind 8 tree.
 As good as they are, though, don't think those boys enjoy the game as much as do. I mean, until you've teed up the ball with your toe while ostensibly watch ing a P-3s, you haven't really lived.

take appropriate action to prevent
further irresponsible action Of this
sort on the part Of assigned police
men.
The three band leaders are all
playing engagements in the New
York area but spend a great
amount Of their time playing one
night dance dates-such as Lionel
Hampton was playing in Kansas
City at the scene Of the Galloway
alteration. Immediately on hear
ing Of the Kansas City outrage, the
three bandsmen met to decide what
positive action they should take.
Millinder, when interviewed by
the New York press, pointed out
that performing in Jim GRO areas
is sufficiently hazardous already,
what with inadequate travel and
housing facilities more often the
rule than the exception, without
adding the further likelihood Of
bodily harm TO artists at the hands
Of irresponsible officers.
All three men took the position
that Lionel Hampton had taken
the logical and correct course in
refusing to play beyond intermis-
sion after learning Of the affront
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1946-01-04

to a fellow band leader. It was
felt by the men that in this way
"Hamp" had registered his protest
in the most dignifed and dramatic
method possible.
Following the meeting Williams,
Hawkins and Millinder dispatched
kilograms Of protest to the Mayor
and chief Of police Of Kansas City
in which they called on them to
take the appropriate action neces-
sary to insure safety from bodily
harm for all artists who play en-
gagements there.
Reports reaching New York on
the Galloway incident aver that the
Heigh-de-ho singer bought two
tickets for himself and a friend
to a dance hall where Hampton
was playing. When he Galloway
appeared at the door he was denied
admission. An argument and seuf-
fie with a special cop, William Todd,
followed. AS a result Of the alter
cation Galloway had to receive
hospital treatment. Il was this
phase Of the incident that pro-
voked the indignant protest Of
bandsmen throughout the country.

ern and southern Democrats are
split while Republicans are threat
ening to force the issue.
If Republicans carry out their
threat, the House Rules Committee
will be discharged from further
consideration of the bill. House
Minority Leader Joseph W. Martin,
Jr., of Massachusetts, has promised
to have enough Republicans sign
the discharge petition to bring the
bill to the floor for a vote.
On the Senate side, Senator
Joseph H. Ball, Republican, of
Minnesota, seeks to put the
Democrats in a dilemma. He
recognizes their bitter opposition
to FEPC legislation, and their
equal opposition to Communism,
and other totalitarian doctrines,
and asserts that failure to pass
such legislation is driving Ne
grOes into the Communist party.
But l cannot blame them, IL
embittered by the failure Of their
Government to act year after
year." he said, "they finally help
pull all of us down to and below
their own level"
Senator Theodore G. (The NAM
Bilbo, Democrat, of Mississippi,
who threatens to filibuster if a mo-
ton is made to bring up the FEPC
bill in the Senate, said he was sur
prised any Senator would beg for
its passage.
Passage of the bill, he said,
would not result in fair treatment.
Taking the District Of Columbia as
an exaT pie, he charged that dis
elimination had been practiced here
against white people in the allot-
ment Of Federal jobs.
OF about 100000 Federal jobs
here, he said, about $4,000 jobs,
which should be held by white
persons, are being held by Ne
grOes. BiIbo said 10 per cent Of
Federal employees is Negro, while
only 9 per cent of the pOpula-
ton Of the country is Negro.
If numerically true, BiIbO's
statement in true Mississippian
style failed to take into account
the level Of jobs held by Negroes
in the Federal Government.

u. S. At End
Of Road Says
Berna Wells

The annual holiday tea Of the
Minneapolis and st. Paul Women's
international League for Peace and
Freedom was held at the home OF
Mrs. G. G. Berggreen, 1872 Breda
Ave, st. Paul, on Friday afternoon,
December 20. Tea was poured by
Mrs. Dovie Phelan.
Among the members Of the Min.
neapolis League attending the tea
other than Mrs. Phelan, was Miss
Erma Clardy. Mrs. Elizabeth Ewing
was the guest of Miss ClardS and
Mrs. Phelan.
Mrs. Berna r. Wells of Aetna
Life Insurance company was the
speaker.
1--WE are at the end Of the
road" Mrs. Wells said. There
is no choice. Either we must
quickly change our attitude and
become world wide brothers, or
we face complete chaos, perhaps
complete humiliation.
THE WOmen's International
League for Peace and Freedom
has always believed in the
brotherhood Of man, regardless of
race, color, class or creed. Now,
as never before, we need TO I'M
derstand the political, economic
and psychological backgrounds of
the other peoples Of the world.
There is, perhaps, no other cOun-
try where so few people speak
only one language. No other
country where the people know
so little, and care so little about
the people Of other countries"
Mrs. Wells continued: 1--WE here
in the United States have been
so secure and so sufficient unto
ourselves. We have been so SNUG
in the idea that we had more, and
were more worthwhile than any
other country in the world-and
yet we have never practiced true
democracy in our own country"
Mrs. Wells said there is much
that can be done to alleviate the
situation, such as crusading mill
family for better newspaper stories,
movies and radio programs, but
above all, liberal Americans can
individually educate their neigh
bors, who do not know the mean
ing Of true democracy and equality
for all races.
at is our duty and our privilege,
yours and mine," Mrs. Wells stated,
ito see to 1t that this type Of equal
ity comes into being, first in our
country, then in the world"
