Democrats Back
In 9Th District
Committee Action
OverruIes Protest
By Maj. Tote

The Eighth Virginia District
Democratic &" Committee yesterday
voted to certify as House candidates
in the August primary the four
Northern Virginia residents who
filed by the May deadline.
The action overruled a protest
by one of the candidates, Maj. James
G. Tate. 81, retired Army officer, of
2O8 East Glendale avenue, Alex
andria, who charged that another
candidate, Mrs. Elizabeth Chiffon
Murray of Fairfax, is not eligible to
run because she broke her oath to
support and vote for the party
nominees in 1914 when she ran un-
successfully against Representative
Smith, the incumbent.
Gardner L. Boothe, chairman Of
the Eighth District Committee, said
the committee is of the opinion that
Mrs. Murray has qualified under the
party plan in that she supported the
party candidates in 1945, and in
filing for the 1916 primary she again
signed the party oath that she will
support and vote for the party
nominees.
Maj. Tate, in a letter last month,
criticizing Mrs. Murray for her utter
disregard of her previous pledge"
had asked Mr.. Boothe to hold COM
mittee hearing.
Mrs. Murray, Maj. Tate said, told
him after the 1914 election that she
had not expected to win. He added
that he is against splitting votes
among the liberals and he believes
his chances for election as a male
candidate, lifelong resident of North
ern Virginia and a veteran, are
better than hers.
The other candidates certified are
Representative Smith and Frank M.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS

Wild Assumption
 Assuming you have a knowledge of psychiatry, what would you rec omTnend for a person who has rec current attacks of mental depres- sion? (W. E)
 Answer-ConSult a physician.
 Plants i'm Room
 The windows of a sickroom are filled with plants. I don't think 1t is healthy, as in hospitals they re- move flowers from the room at night. tMrs. C.. c. E.)
 Answer-Only reason for remov- ing cut flowers or growing plants from the room at night or any other time is to get them out of the way or perhaps to have them from frostbite if the windows are to be kept open. Either cut flowers or growing plants are unobjectable in a sickroom or other room,so far as hygiene or health may be con- cerned.,
 Tetra -ethyl lead In Gasoline
 You properly warned against the use of "ethyl" gasoline to soak the foot in, as a treatment for foot itch. As nearly all gasoline now contains more or less tetraethyl lead, 1t might be well to suggest the use of the kind of gasoline some dealers in each locality supply for farmers and others to use in lamps or stoves-tetraethyl lead in gasoline clogs the small jets in such articles, so this lineladed gasoline Is usually sold by at least one dealer who caters to farmers. (B. E. F.)
 Answer-Thank you. Only un- leaded gasoline should be used, of course. Not that tetra-ethyl lead can be absorbed by the skin of the skin is not broken), but 1t is too easily inhaled.

 give vague answers to When VIII you have another shipmentP" as lt is to have to dole out stockings to a greedy-eyed line of customers.
 The big, tough cops who nave had their dignity threatened by the antics of fighting women in nylon lines have surely built up an allergy to them, too.
 And how about Papa? Don't you suppose he Is good and tired of hearing about nylons? How long Mama waited in line for her pair. How Mrs. So-and-so seems to have an unlimited supply. How something should be done. How I'm down to my last pair, and if I get a run in these don't know what I'll do." A little tiresome after a while, don't you imagine?
 STORE MANAGERS, TOO
 And think of the store managers who, however hard they try, can't portion out the nylons so that every body is satisfied. If they announce a sale, they have riot. And if they quietly send their stockings out 10 charge customers, the cash custom CTS feel cheated
 A dermatologist might. not be able to find evidence of nylon allergy in these cases, but it's a ctnch the al- lergy. however purely mental it is, is very real and very insistent.

I don't know how attractive they are, but they don't have the regular traffic signals on Hollywood Boulevard anymore. |. Now they light up and say, Stop. Go. And never mind, she's got her lSSs- band with her!"
 And it's very interesting to note that there's shortage of every thing but women's hats but that's understandable. .. after all, alfalfa grows any place. Yes sir, the new women's hats are really the last word. the last word you could print!
 saw one girl wearing a hat I don't know exactly how to describe it. but two sparrows followed her down the street yell- ing, Whats the ceiling on that?"
 I bought new spring suit for myself California model. And it's really wonderful, too. It's reversible. If you get tired of wearing it one way, you turn it inside out and it opens up into a badminton court.

Few if any readers will remember how defined artophic and hyper trophic arthritis in an earlier talk. But never mind = atrophi means characterized by atropty, wasting, shrinkage in the tissues. of the af- fected joint or joints and the muscles that move the joints Hypertrophic means characterized by overgrowth, hypertrophy, er1- largement of the affected joint or joints.
 When we get down to cases 1t seems to me that there Is more or less hypertrophy evident in the earlier years of most cases of rheu- matism and more or less atrophy when the trouble is further ad- vanced or of longer standing.
 Degeneration is the word for 1t I should say. Remember, we are talking about chronic rheumatiz only-lot about rheumatic fever Otherwise called acute multiple infe ctious arthritis, and formerly called infiammatory rheumatism).
 The medical significance of de- generation is deterioration of a tis- sue or an organ in which its vital- ity is diminished" (WebsteD or structural change in the tissue or organ in which some of the funct-- ioning cells are replaced by inert material.
 Deseneration doesn't happen in a day or a week, but only by a grad ual change. How far the degener. ative process can go and yet still be reversible Regeneration l have no idea. But this I know: If the victim of chronic rheumatism IS to obtain any improvement at all the process of degeneration must be reversed. If the process is not too for advanced good treatment may reverse 1t and give a cure. l hasten to say that I know of no speclnc remedy to achieve this.

America's Card AuthoFity

In our delegation of eastern play- CTS who will attend Bridge Week in California in May, Pittsburgh will be represented by Mi. and Mrs. Paul Thoma and Ivan Half. On a recent visit to Pittsburgh played a few rubbers of bridge at Thomas home, and when Paul reached four hearts on today's hand, West could not be criticied for doubling him. Nevertheless Thoma made the con- tract.
 When the opening diamond lead held, West shifted to the jack of clubs, which Toma won with the ace. He ruffed a diamond in dummy and then made a very nice play. He led the queen of clubs from dummy East covered with the king and Thoma ruffed, then ruffed another diamond tin dummy.
 He reasoned that West must have all of the adverse high cards, so at this point he led the nine of clubs from dummy and discarded spade from his own hand. West ruffsd with the three of hearts and led the nine of spades Thotna won with dummy's queen and led the seven of clubs, trurnped with the four of hearts and West-ruffed

washington, April p. (UP)-The United States went on short bread rations today.
 The cut was ordered by the Gov- ernment as part of Q worldwide effort to beat of the worst famine threat in nearly 400 years. Its goal was to save another 25,OO0, ,OOO bushels of wheat for export.
 It means that during the next 70 critical days, Americans will have at least 25 per cent less bread and other wheat products than they had during the corresponding period of 1945.
 The bread cut will be felt irnme- diately because bread is made on a day-to-lay basis The reduction in such packed and stored items as cereals and spaghetti will be felt more gradually.
 As result of the cutback, repre- sentatives of the baking industry aplanned to meet with OPA officials immediately to discuss price inc creases. They feel bread prices should be raised about a cent loaf to offset the slash In production.
 The Government has offered farmers a 30-cent-a- -bushel bonus in an attempt to lure 125,OOO, ,OOU bushels of wheat and 50,00O, ,OOO bushels of corn out of farm stor- age bins by May 25.
 President Truman has renewed his suggestion that Americans save even more food by going on a "estarvation" diet two days a week, when they would eat no more than people in the hunger areas.
 Warning
 Former President Herbert Hoover has warned that unless the world comes to their aid, some 150, 0OO, ,OOO Europeans and countless millions of Asiatics must live with daily spectre of starvation.
 Meanwhile, the federal trade commission charged that many makeries were continuing to waste flour by disregarding the govern ment ban on consignment selling. This is the practice whereby re. tailers can return unsold bread without charge to bakeries. In a report released by Presiden! Truman, the commission said countless loave sof day-old bread still were being sold as livestock feed or thrown into the river" as result of the practice. .,
 Nevertheless, the commission esti- mated that the Government pro- hilton succeeded in saving enough brea last year to give 10 loaves each to 46, 467 900 persons The savings could have been still greater, II said, if all bakeries cooperated.
 Avoid Waste
 The commission called on bakery officials, drivers and retailers 70 wipe out the practice to prevent needless waste in the current food emergency. It also suggested that Congress might look into the pos sibility of drafting legislation to make the prohibition permanent.
 The Government was busy with other programs to increase food shipments to starving areas.
 UNRRA Director Fiorello H. La- Guardia already has taken steps however, to see that foood reaches them as radpidly as 1t becomes available under the new global con" servation program. LaGuardia said experts now were checking grain ships at sea to ind out which ones could be diverted to more critical hunger areas. They also are trying to line up additional shipping.
