Knutson Predicts De-

Meets November A.

WASHINGTON. Sept: Repre-
sentative Harold Knutson, Repub-
lican, of Minnesota, chairman of the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee, announced last Saturday that
the Republicans will renew their
drive to cut taxes as soon as Con-
gress recOnvenes, and that the
slash probably would exceed the
vetoed $4,000 ,00o,O00 bill. The COM
mittee. which initiates all tax legis-
ation, will be called to convene in
Washington on Nov. 4. he said. and
sthe subject OF tax reduction will
undoubtedly be considered at that
time.
One committee member. Mr..
Knutson reported. is proposing a
slash In income levies of as much
as so percent for small incomes
and 20 per cent In highest brack-
cts. Mr.. Knuts0n added that *
very much doubt if we will be able
to hold the line at 80, 20 and 1916
percent reductions" These were
the proposed reductions If the ye-
foed bills for low middle and high
incomes, respectively.
Writing from his home In MIN
nesota in response TO an Associa-
ted Press inquiry about Republi-
can tax plans, he said:
1.-The tax fight we waged in the
f7rst session of the Eightieth Con-
gress was merely round l. The bell
will ring for round as soon as the
second session conyenes in January
An overwhelming majority 0l
American people demand tax re-
lief.
They know that Canada and the
United Kingdom have already had
two such tax reductions since the
end of the war and they resent Mr.
rruman's obstinate opposition To
any reduction for the individual

March is not a lion,
Neither. is it a lamb;
II the wind is not blowing
You know it's calm.
We talk of April showers,
That will come now soon,
To bring out the flowers,
Into their full bloom.
We love the month OF May,
It's the fullness of spring;
How we wish 1t could stay,
But there's no such a thing.
For the month of June,
Wants to come right I'm,
And it will now soon,
For it's the way it's always been.
Then look at July,
It's going to get hot;
It's wheat threshing, that's why.
So get on the big pot.
August is the month tho,
We go to the shore;
There we learn to know,
What we knew long before.
That wimen leave off,
Everything they can spare,
And the men stand and scoff,
While they stand straight and stare
But well do | remember,
When came here. begininy
The thirteenth Of September,

Then in October,

All settled and sober,
In the Hall household.
Then there is November
With it's snow-scuds and frost;
Not as cold as December,
Into which it is tossed.
Well I've written this time,
OF Spring, Summer and Fall
And to make 1t all rhyme,
Wasn't hard at all.

Association, Inc, in whose official fami.

and which apparently has it's ear to the
ground in China, announces that 3d.
900 Chinese communist youths are be-
ing recruited for training in the U. S,
S. R., and that a military advisory
group has been organized by the Chinese
communists composed of senior Soviet
officers.
The Association does not claim COM
plete confirmation of these items, but
offers a translation of resolutions pas
sed at a November meeting of top
Chinese communists at Kienan, at which
Mao Tse-tung was present. Among pro-
visions of these resolutions is the equip
ment of forty divisions of regular COM
munist army with arms, to be COM
pleted not later than the end of Febru-
airy, 1947. Another is that the counter
offensive shall be started in February,
1947, on all fronts. Still another is that
commencing from December, 1916, riots
and assassinations be plotted in all
leading cities.
This last provision is so clearly in
the Russian communist pattern, it is
difficult to disbelieve that Russia is a
party to the other provisions. Obvious
ly civil war in China is to continue in

is raised against democratic China

The NEW PREACHER CROP
BY WILLIAM T. L l.


I was tactless enough, on a COM
memorative occasion, to point out
the fact that a generation ago the
United States and Canada had
more great preachers than today.
l called a roll OF great men who
have left no successors.
A smiling young preacher ac-
cepted the challenge. They are
On the way; they're on the way.
A new crop q clergymen of pc
tential greatness are even now
finding themselves. They have had
a more rounded training than
their predecessors, and are facing
up to a more difficult world mood.
Give them a little time and the
Church and the world will be
hearing from them
This was neartening. For at it's
core the world-problem is within
the preachers province. He tends
the altar fires Of mans spirit. His
high and holy office is to interpret
the will of God, and the spiritual
capacity of man. The last word
in all questions of public relation
ship must come from the quick
ened hearts of individual men and
women. They alone can lead who
are themselves led.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2-Congress
goes to work Friday in a couple
of rooms that look like old gym
nasiums. Only the gyms usually
are better lighted.
The House and Senate chambers
look like gymnasiums because each
ceiling is supported by a network
of steel beams.
Engineers decided the ancient
ceilings were unsafe, 81 in l941 the
beams were put in. Without this
support, Congressional oratory
might literally have become roof
shaking.
The 8Oth Congress should be an
important one, so let's peek in at
the places where history will be
made.
Both the House and Senate cham
bers are built on the same plan.
A gallery runs around each. From
this balcony spectators may peer
down on legislators in action.
But a spectator who drops in
during a routine session is apt to
be disappointed.
Many-maybe most-of the seats
will be vacant. For Congressman
have lots OF chores besides de-
batting and voting. And besides,
much Of Congress work is done
in committee rooms.
Now for a few differences in the
two places.
The Senate:
Its desks have been carefully
divided. The 81 Republican desks
are to the LETT of the presiding
officer. The rs Democratic desks
are on his right.
The desks, OF beautiful mahog-

The Senate usually is more digni.
fled and formal than the House.
Its page boys wear short pants.
The Senators apparently never
heard. of a public address system,
and consequently they are hard
to hear.
The snuff box on each Senator'S
desk has been filled.
The House:
Its 444 bench-like seats are ar
ranged in a semi-circle. The 245
Republicans have only 222 seats
on their side, but they probably
won't show up simultaneously very
often.
Unlike the Senate, House mem
bers have no desks, and they sit
wherever they please.
The House is informal, and page
boys wear long pants.
Its members use microphones,
and consequently can be heard
very plainly.
If they want to dip snuff, they
have to bring their own.

INFECTIONS
ARE HARD TO CURE
BY WILLIAM A. O'BRIEN, M. d.

d. W1AAxAIu ~ 1AtAI4N IVA De
Osteomyelitis Ozone infection)
often develops in boys and young
men following an injury, and it is
a most difficult infection to treat.
The disease is produced by the in
vasion of germs from the blood
by an open bone fracture, Or by
an operation on the bone.
Acute osteomyelitis usually at
tacks suddenly, the victim becom.
ing seriously ill.
The pain over the affected bone
indicates the source of the infec-
ton, which in the beginning 10
confined within the bone capsule.
AS the infection progresses il
breaks through into the surround
ing tissues, and the swelling be-
comes marked.
Germs responsible for acute o.
teomyelitis mo. often originate in
the skin, although in some in
stances the disease develops from
an infection elsewhere in the body.
The thigh, leg, and arm r most
often affected, Or the disease may
follow the extraction of a tooth.
The tendency in recent years
has been to treat acute osteomye-
Tits conservatively, by the use Of
sulfa drugs, ~penicillin, and blood
transfusions. If the infection e
spends and the signs of serious
infection subside, the treatment is
continued until there is no danger
of relapse.
When an operation is performed.
the bone is opened and the in
lection is drained with as little
disturbance to the surrounding
structures as p o S S i b l e. Special
support Of the infected limb is es-
%sential, and casts and special
splints are used.
Acute osteomyelitis may develop
into the chronic stage. Disability
from chronic osteomyelitis is long,
and costly hospital and special
medical care may be required.
The infected bone heals slowly,
often with many flare-ups of the
infection. The difficulty seems to
be caused by separation of frag-
ments of bone, which must be
eliminated before healing can oc-
cur.
In n radical operation on
chronic osteomyelitis, the infected
bone is removed and the wound
is left open. In the other method
of treatment, following the re-
moval of the infected bone the gap
is filled with a pack and the limb
is encased in a plaster cast.
After the bone has healed, ex-
tensive physical therapy may be
necessary.
QUESTION: I have had vari-
cose veins for many years and
have been receiving injections for
the last eight years. I have de-
veloped a sensitive spot on my

What do you advise?

tinue to give trouble, some ply
