ease. Probably your father had it,
your grandmother or your great
uncle. But there's silver lining to
this situation: it's not contagious.
The hay-fever symptom is part
of the body's effort to protect you
against disease. Whenever
enemy" substances, to which
you are allergic, threaten, certain
cells called "antibodies" attach
themselves in small armies to
tissues Of the body. Wherever an
army of antibodies settle, the
tissues become sensitive. The anti
bodies remain alert for the reap
pearance of the enemy.
Easy Ese1De
WHEN the enemy substance
doctors call it ontigen) enters for
the second time, the army of anti
bodies goes to meet it with the
typical allergic response, causing
hay fever, hives, or, in case of
bronchial disturbance, asthma.
Quickest and surest way to
escape seasonal hay fever is to
get out of the bad area. Go to
the White Mountains, the Maine
coast, the Upper Peninsula of
Michigan, the Canadian woods,
Southern California or the lower
tip of Florida. Or ask your local
Chamber of Commerce for nearby
places that are relatively free of
hay-feverish pollens.
One chronic hay-fever sufferer
once groaned at having to spend
an entire summer in sitting New
York City. 1t turned out to be his
first year free of hay fever. The
next summer he remained there
deliberately, and now he seems
rid of his annual nuisance.
What is there to do about your
hay fever? First, get tested by
your doctor. He will give you
treatment to protect you during
your worst season. If advisable, he
will give you drugs during the
most acute stage.
Other Enemies
In ADDITION. remember that GER
tain substances other than your
known enemies can aggravate dis
tress. DR.. Will Cook Spain, in his
Hints to Hay Fever Sufferers,
lists cut flowers in the house,

stove. Leaky mechanical refrig-
orators are arch enemies of the
allergy victim.
People used to think that the
sun made them sneeze. 1t is not
entirely superstition. Strong light
rays in open fields, at the seashore
or in the movies, won't benefit
hay fever. Wear dark glasses.
Crowded smoking rooms, dusty
roads and freshly swept rooms,
musty pillows from summer houses
and lint from cotton and wool will
make many a sensitive mucous
membrane swell.
II you're going ON a train or
automobile trip, try to avoid
strong currents of air. No mat
ter how hot the night, don't 60 to
sleep with an electric fan blowing
on you. Swimming and diving in
fresh water are none too good.
Still, there's the ocean!
Overeating can aggravate hay
fever. The food most necessary to
avoid in quantity includes meat,
eggs, cheese and chocolate. Some
people are irritated by melon.
grapes, peaches and even sweet
corn. Some find that alcoholic
beverages will sometimes stimu-
late attacks.
Women sufferers often find it
helps to give up highly scented
soap and perfume, nail lacquer
and remover. With men. hair ton
les and lotions, shaving soap and
talcum powder can cause itching
and sneezing.
No Pe1fect Rsnsedy
AFTER all these cautions and
prohibitions, it is easy to under
stand why the hay-fever victim
wants something quick to end the
suffering. But you can also see
why the conscientious doctor
wants to get at the basic cause.
You may as we'll face it -
the perfect remedy for all cases
has not been found. But the
combination of drugs to relieve the
discomfort and the steady effort
to make the sufferer insensiGve to
further attack point the way to an
eventual solution.
If you make careful check, you
may find a solution to your hay
fever problem is closer at hand
than you'd thought. There is the
famous case of the man who
couldn't get near his redheaded
girl friend without breaking into
a fit of sneezing. They had both
about decided he should see a
psychiatrist when the girl changed
her face powder. Presto. the sneez-
ing stopped, and they lived hap

RepubIicun Rumblings

The rumblings of Republican opposition
to the Marshall plan have not yet assumed
serious proportions. 1t Is hard to snake on
the conviction, however that, like the nttle
cloud which arose out of the sea, these
rumblings herald an approaching storm.
Senator Butler of Nebraska, proclalmlng
himself very much against the plan, says
he doubts whether the American economy
can stand such program as that put be-
fore Congress by President Truman. In
similar vein, Republican Senator DWor-
shak of Idaho declares: 1--WE cannot justify
jeopardizing our economy at nome. Wnat
Is more important we can't take chance
on crippling our national security.
Senator Wherry announces that he will
not be "pressured" into hasty action on
the plan, least of all by former Under
secretary of State Dean Acheson. And
Representative Jonkman of Michigan pro-
tests that we will be paying the debts OF
European nations and that they ought to
work to pay off their own debts.
This kind of opposition holds certain
threat of danger because it undoubtedly
appeals to an isolationist sentiment in this
country which is far from dead. 1t may
be demagoguery for Senator to 1nd1ct
the whole European recovery program as
"glorifed WPA," but it would be foolish
not to realize that there is receptive
audience for this sort of thing, that people
who are tired of strife and worried and
hard-pressed in their own right will often
respond to some shallow catch phrase II
it promises escape from new response
bilities
The trouble with this is that, while we
can sidestep our responsibilities as the one
nation to which the free countries can
turn for help and leadership in the
struggle against the totalitarians, we can
not escape the consequences of failure to
measure up to those responsibilities. Most
of the Republicans know this. And many
of them will be found leading the effort to
focus the coming debate on the real issues
at stake, on the basic proposition that the
question Is not whether the United States
can afford to extend this helping hand but
whether we can afford to withhold it.
Still, with a national election in the
off1ng, it is too much to hope that the door
will be shut to all partisanship. The most
that can be hoped for is that the dangers
inherent in this budding Republican up
rising will be recognized, and that during
the debate every effort will be made to
concentrate on the great and real interest
which this country has in the recovery of
Europe, and that there will be a minimum
of purely partisan opposition.

doing-a thing we have scrupulously
avoided. And it has been doing so not
merely in Germany, but throughout its
satellite empire. The policy reflects much
more than desire to get loot or temporary
advantages to Offset Russia's heavy war
time losses; what 1t seems definitely de-
signed to do is to give the Kremlin perma-
nent and direct economic power within
countries far beyond its borders-a power
that could be employed with telling effect
long after the Red Army quits occupation
and returns to the homeland.
But this policy is not one that the
Russians will admit. Instead. they are
doing everything possible to cover it up.
Hence, their brazen effort to make it seem
that we are the guilty ones, not they. It
is more or less as if a pickpocket were
seeking to distract attention from himself
by crying "stop thief" at some innocent
passerby in crowd. It is a propaganda
trick of peculiarly low sort, but it can be
effective unless countered Along with a
lot of similar Soviet humbug, it needs to be
exposed as effectively as possible lest too
many Europeans begin to believe it.

No Merger ReprisoIs

The appointment of Vice Admiral Arthur
W. Radford as Vice Chief of Naval Opera
tions puts an end to speculation as to what
effect the outspoken officers opposition to
interservice unifcation might have on his
promotion There was no doubt among
fellow naval officers as to Admiral Rad
ford's qualifications for the high naval
post. First of all he is an aviator, generally
considered prerequisite to the VCNO ap-
pointment when the top job is held by a
nonf1yer-as is the case now. In addition,
he has a distinguished war record both
ashore and af1oat, having not only been in
charge of the extraordinarily successful
wartime aviation training program but
having served as commander of several
task forces in the Pacific.
However, because Admiral Radford, with
typical frankness had been a leader in
naval opposition to the merger proposal
insofar as it might mean the subordination
or disappearance of naval aviation, reports
had been widely circulated that undesig
mated "outSide influences" were trying to
block his elevation. If such influences
really were at work, they were grossly
unfair to Admiral Radford. Many other
off1cers-aviators as we'll as nonaviators-
vigorously objected to the unifcation plan
In its original form. Their objections led
to major revisions insthe legislation, revi-
sions which concededly improved the plan
and paved the way for final adoption. If
the sincere convictions of these officers are
to be held against them every time they
come up for consideration for important
naval staff or other assignments, grave
injustice will be done them and a disservice
will be done the Navy.
1t is well that President Truman, by an
unusual public announcement of his ap-
proval of Admiral Radford's appointment,
has made it plain that officers will not be
penalized for having expressed, in good
faith, their views on the controversial
merger question, and that only fitness for
the job will be the criterion in picking
leaders.

For the leaf once green is fallen and

And on the marble ldshes OF Eros Is an

The garden is silently white, and inside

Hears only its heartbeats and clock

couple of hundred pages is that It attempts to
include too many governmental changes which
are not essential at the start of a workable
home rule plan. Essential for that purpose
is local government very substantially respon-
sible to local citizens with the powers of the
Commissioners and some additional powers of
which Congress seems willing and possibly
even anxious to relieve itself. Other reorgan-
izations affecting the same or other agencies
in the local setup may well be included in
the bill if there is fairly general agreement
on their wisdom, but should not be insisted
upon if they are so controversial as to becloud
the main issue of making a good start at
home rule.
The way out, if the coming discussions should
seem to bog down in differences of opinion on
such points, is to leave some of them for
further study, putting the new home rule
government to appropriate use as agent OF
local citizens in deciding Cor in recommending
for congressional enactment If need be- the

To Avert World Famine

There is widespread tendency to think
of contemporary food shortages in Europe
and elsewhere as either temporary
short-term stringency, remedial as the
ravages of the late war are repaired. Such
judgments appear to be unduly optimistic
according to the report of Sir John Boyd
Orr, director general of the United Nations
Food and Agriculture Organization.
This body, usually known as FAC, is one
Of the collateral organs for world better
ment set up under the charter OF the
United Nations. Charged specifically with
problems of nutrition, FAO's activities are
literally worldwide and the information
acquired thereby may be regarded as
authoritative. 1t is against this factual
background that we should heed Sir Johns
verdict that world food production will
have to be more than doubled within the
next quarter-century If the "direst
calamities" are to be averted. AS for the
current situation, he asserts that even a
bumper 1948 harvest will not end the
existing acute food shortage, which will
continue to be of pressing magnitude
"The trend toward increasing scarcity" he
warns, must be arrested. Food supplies
must be stretched to the utmost Produc-
ton programs must be initiated so that
food rationing may be ended and levels of
nutrition raised as early as possible"
FAC is certainly doing its utmost to that
end. Its report shows that its experts are
busy in such far-away countries as Siam
and Peru to enlarge their food productive
capacities, while other missions conduct
educational campaigns in regions of
present food deficit such as Greece and
Poland. Lastly, it's headquarters staff is
conducting special studies on various aids
to agriculture.
The FAC is pinning great hopes on the
new World Food Council set up this
autumn at Geneva. This body, whose
members are representatives and spokes
men of member governments, will give
FAC central direction and authority that
will increase it's efficacy. When an agree
ment is reached by the Council says Sir
John, "it is most probable that its recon-
mendations will be followed by all
countries"
Here, certainly is an institution whose
field is so universally benefcent that its
activities should be welcomed and fur
thered by every people. Famine is the
common foe of all mankind. To combine
against this enemy should be easy
