COMMISSIONS OPEN
IN NATIONAL GUARD

The patriotic civilian who was
not old enough to serve in the
Army during World War II not
only can serve his country in his
spare time by enlisting in the
National Guard but also can be-
come a commissioned officer as
well.
The War Department has an
nounced that plans are now being
formulated whereby enlisted men
of The National Guard may apply
for attendance at the Army Of
ficer Candidate School. Successful
applicants will be placed on active
duty while attending the school
and will serve on inactive duty
with the National Guard upon COM
pletion of the course. Those who
desire to do so may apply for
active duty in a commissioned
status in the Army of the United
States.
Graduates of the course may be
commissioned in any of the Ground
Arms or administrative or techni-
cal services. The school, which
now is at Fort Benning, Georgia,
will be moved to Fort Riley, Kan
sas. on September 1, 1947.
The War Department also an
nounced that members of the En-
listed Reserve Corps will be given
the same opportunity to become
commissioned officers. When ap-
plication forms are ready for dis
tribution they will be placed with
National Guard and Reserve units
in the field and made available to
those interested.

One of the major questions in the
minds of many women in whether
breasts can be prevented from sag
ging after childbirth. In this con-
nection DR.. Kenyon states in part:
"This does not follow. In fact,
some people think that the breasts
gain better tone. After weaving
they should return to their pre-
vious size. You should wear during
pregnancy, during the nursing Pc
riod, and for several months after
ward, well-ftting. uplift-type bras
sieres. Each breast should be lifted
so that it points slightly toward
the opposite shoulder. Breasts
shouldn't hang unsupported, and
there shouldn't be backward pres
sure against the chest"
A set of exercises to restore wo-
mems figures which have the ap-
proval of obstetricians and doctors
who have studied them provides
specific remedies for bulky figures.
To prevent breasts from sagging
it is recommended that you get in
to sitting position with legs
stretched horizontally outward,
knees relaxed, hands in back of
hips on floor, with the head. chest
and shoulders slumped forward.
Stretch body upward from hands,
head high, chest up, and shoulders
back. Pull in abdominal muscles
lard. Return to first position. Re-

peat five times. Rest. Then five
more times. This exercise is par
ticularly useful to strengthen pee
toral muscles that help hold breasts
in position.
If spreading hips are your prob
lem, this exercise will be effective.
Lie face downward over cot or
piano bench, hands gripping each
side of the bench, body from waist
downward hanging over end, legs
and weight supported on balls of
feet. Raise right leg upward with
heel extended, then lower leg slow
ly. Extend the left leg upward, and
lower slowly. Repeat six times.
Rest. Then six more. After four or
five days, raise both legs upward
two times. Rest. After four days
increase the number of times to
four.
To keep slim and firm through
the middle section, the place where
spreading and flabbiness are most
troublesome, the following exercise
will be found effective:
Place a straight-legged chair on

close to the side of the chair and

w HOLDING STILL
ON HIS INTERESTS

ALBANY, N. Y, Aug. 1-(P9-
Nothing short of a political rocket
will propel Gov. Thomas E. Dewey
into announcing he is a candidate
for the 1948 Republican P%residen-
tial nomination, an authoritative
source indicated today after the
governors return from a months
tour of the west.
Keeping his own counsel, Dewey
dug deep into a high pile OF &C
cumulated state work soon after
he and his family arrived this
morning from Detroit, last stop on
a 6,500-mile vacation" trip.
Although Dewey has not declar-
ed his candidacy and does not in.
tend to, his Western junket was
partially a vacation but largely. a
major phase of his campaign tc
win the Presidential nomination.
The governor was represented as
highly pleased with the results 81
the trip. He conferred with Re.
publican leaders of Is states and
IL of them said ne was leading
the field III their states.
Three Exceptions
The three exceptions were Colo
RADIO, where ne was given a fight
ing chance against Senator Rob-
ert A. Taft by National Committee
man Rex Eaton; Illinois, which is
reported now to be leaning toward
its governor, Dwight Green. oil
Taft, and Michigan, where 1t;
senior Senator, Arthur H. Vanden
berg, holds first place in the at
fections of the party.
Informed sources said Dewey
was convinced that he had amass'
ed a sizeable lead over Taft ane
felt no necessity, Immediately Al
least, of speaking out on nationa.
and foreign issues, as Taft would
have all Republicans" do.
When and if Dewey does take te
the public platform on issues ar.
fecting the nation at home anc
abroad, it will not be as a declar'
ed candidate for the Presidential
nomination, unless something now
unforeseen changes the picture.

his prospects for the nomination
and election. Some of his out-of
state supporters said he could have
strong Southern support for the
asking.
Taft's colleagues still here after
last nights big homecoming rally.
which was Interpreted by them as
launching the Taft Presidential
boom also drew some comfort from
yesterdays statement by Gov.
James H. Duff (R-Pa) advising
the party not to tie itself up to
a single candidate so long In ao-
vance of the convention.
Martin Fayorite
The believed Taft might muster
some strength in the big Pennsyl'
vania convention delegation. There
are reports, though, that Senator
Martin will be the Keystone states
favorite son.
Taft had strong support from
Southern delegations in his past
two attempts at the nomination In
1886 and 1910. Visiting Republicans
here said much Taft strength was
still there, but predicted split dele
cations from several states.
They said Carol Reece, chair
man of the Republican National
committee and Tennessee national
committeeman, would probably
hold the key to the Southern stu
alton; that other state delegations
would follow T~ennessee's endorse
ment.
One Tennessee visitor said there
is a movement afoot to make Reece
a .favorite son" candidate in order
that he might hold the Tennessee
delegation in the safety zone, walt
ing to jump on the winners band
wagon.
Other Taft supporters said ne
probably would receive support not
only in Tennessee, but in Loulsi-
ana, Alabama, and Mississippi.
They looked for possible split dele
cations in Texas, former Taft
bailiwick, and in Florida, North
Carolina and Virginia.
Georgia doubtful
They would not attempt at thH
juncture to predict how Georgia
and South Carolina might line up
Whatever the ultimate strength
Taft shows up with in Dixie, one
thing is certain. He has the pro-
mise of Ohio's big block of 50 dele
gates in his pocket if ne wants
