New Station
Wagon For
Lay Council

A new, all metal Suburban
Carryall" to transport patients to
health clinics in Montgomery
County has just been put into OPP
Grafton by the Montgomery Coun-
ty Public Health Lay Council q
Montgomery County Community
Chest agency. Drives like a pas
senger car" said Mrs. Levi Gill,
driver for the past two years of
the Councils converted Army am
bulance. A slight, quiet woman,
Mrs. Gill was said by former clinic
patients to be able to "pick up
the old car and set it down."
In a semi-rural county, like
Montgomery, the Health Depart
ment would be handicapped if a
definite means of transportation
to the ten health centers were not
provided for the medically INDECENT
patients. "Well baby" contests,
with awards of new children's
clothes and framed pictures of the
contestants, make clinic car riding
an educational as well as a thera-
peutic project.
The Public Health Lay Council,
of which Mrs. Charles S. Duvall,
Jr., of Cabin John, is chairman,
has maintained a clinic car since
1888, when a secondhand station
wagon was purchased to transport
patients to Health Centers for
dental, maternal child hygiene,
chest and orthopedic clinics. The
American Legion, Planned Parent
hood League, tuberculosis Associa-
ton and other local organizations
provide funds for transportation
to certain clinics. In one year the
car was driven-in all kinds of
weather-over $4,000 miles. With
the increase in health clinics, in
GLIDING venereal disease, eye and
ear, the Council felt obligated to
maintain two clinic cars, so car
No. 2, which this new one replaces,
was bought in 1914.

One Superstition Gone

A PARTIAL eclipse of the sun
was visible in the United
States late in November but the
celestial phenomenon passed with
nothing more than casual notice
from the average citizen, although
given considerable attention by
astronomers, amateur and profess.
sional.
The fact that there we're no dire
predictions of disaster for the
globe and nothing like panic on
the part of the population over
the strange shadow seen on the
sun, gives proof of the develop
ment of human beings. There was
a time when such a phenomenon
could have produced panic.
The ancient superstition has
been succeeded by modern science.
The gain in intelligence means the
growth of self-control.
When enlightened peoples have
put aside their ancient fears in
connection with eclipses, there are
many areas of human thinking in
which the discovery of truth is
handicapped by the remnants of
ignorance and superstition. That
progress is difficult springs from
the undeniable fact that we are
never able to appreciate our own
ignorance and our own supersti-
lions.

Shall We Share Food?
NDREI GROMYKO, Soviet del

ANDREI GROMYKO, Soviet del
egate to the United Nations,
denounces the use of food for
political purposes and, directing
his demands that food-exporting
countries take adequate steps to
economic on domestic consump-
ton to increase exports.
Boiled down, the Soviet diplomat
insists that the United States
economize on the domestic con-
sumption of food in order to be
able to send a greater volume to
alleviate the worlds shortage OF
cereals. Apparently, the idea in
the back of the Russians mind is
that those who have should freely
share with those who have not.
In connection with the need in
the world for additional foodstuffs,
we call attention to the Depart
ment of Agriculture's program for
production in the United States
Mr.. Clinton P. Anderson, the
Secretary, says that there should
not be reduction as long as the
world needs the output of our
farmers.
This is very true, but, over and
beyond the needs of the world, is
a question. Who is to pay the
American farmer, and those of
other countries, for producing
food for peoples not able to pur-
chase it?

German Scientists Here

NOT MANY Americans know
that German scientists have
been in this country helping our
Air and Ground Forces develop
lonerange rockets and other new
weapons.
The War Department, however,
will soon permit the press to in
terview these scientists, who num-
Der more than $50 and to photo
graph the experiments that have
been conducted. This means, pre-
sumably, that tests with captured
Nazi w rockets will be revealed.

Hoodlumism +?

GEORGE SANDERS, the movie

another autograph in public, de-
elaring that films stars too long
have submitted to the tyranny of
youthful hoodlums."
There is no doubt of the fact
that Mr.. Sanders has something
On his side. There are occasions
wnen many who are intensely in
terested in the welfare of youth
are forced to admit that they act
IKE young hoodlums.
Inc same observation applies to
viuer persons, as well. Neverthe-

Says "The People Know

WHILE there has been no public
acknowledgement by the Yu-
goslav Government of the contri-
button of the United States to
UNRRA, C. L. Sulzberger, New
York Times correspondent, after
riding across the country, reports
that the people know where the
goods came from.
The record shows that UNRRA
spent about $425, 900, 600 in extend
ing assistance to Yugoslavia. The
newspaperman says that he saw
no signs of hostility or disrespect
to the United States flag on his
jeep and that fairly frequently
especially in Serbia and Mace
donia, remarked demonstrations of
friendship"

Explosions Warn Us

RECENT newspapers have con-
tanned accounts of several ex
plosions, involving the loss of life
including that of a boiler in a
Michigan schoolhouse which killed
one pupil and injured at least eigh-
teen.
We do not know whether these
explosions have been caused, in
part, by prolonged use of worn
out equipment, but the occurrences
suggest that those who are re-
sponsible for boilers have them in
spected and tested as a safety
factor.

AAF 10 Cut Training Cost
by Usinq 3-Year EnIistees

The Army Air Forces today set
as an immediate goal the manning
Of the AAF with three-year enlis-
tees in order to reduce training ex-
penses to meet budget requirements.
OF the 100000 enlisted men in the
AAF, more than 10000 are Short
term enlistees. I'VE are trying to
build the Air Forces with men who
desire . career in the Regular Army
and by doing this we can curtail
the expense entailed in training
specialists" said Maj. Gen. Fred l..
Anderson, assistant chief of air
STAN for personnel. ~
Recently issued regulations now
permit short-term enlisted men to
extend their enlistments to three
years, when formerly, they had to
complete their current enlistment
period and then re-enlist.
Priority for attendance in spe-
cialist schools is being given to the
three-year men, 1t was explained,
because the AAF cannot keep a
short-term man long enough after
he completes his schooling to COM
pensate for his training expense.
