to advantage in medicine.
A visit to the New York Eye and
Ear infirmary, the oldest specialized
hospital in the western hemisphere,
where people from all walks OF life
have been treated for more than a
century in its numerous eye, ear,
nose and throat clinics demon
strates the value of the technique.
This hospital is stated by the great
and near-great in the fields Of oph-
thalmology and otolaryngology.
Surgeons with Park avenue prac-
tees come daily to diagnose and
treat the $4,000 people who pass
through it's clinics each year.
Here medical photography has
become a recognized and estab-
lished service in the treatment OF
many eye diseases.
Explains Techniques.
This department was organized
and is run by Mary R. Brown, one
of the few women in this country
who specialize in the field of oph-
thalmic photography. She is a
pretty, quiet woman whose own son
is just completing his medical edu-
cation Mrs. Brown explained some
of the scientific techniques she uses
daily in her diagnostic research and
medical record work for surgeons
at the New York Eye and Ear in
frmary.
In addition to the small and
delicate cameras that photo
graph the outer sections of the
eye, there is the Fundus cam
era used for phOtOgraphing the
,retina of the eye-the area deep
within the eye itself. This COM
plicated camera uses the lens of
the patients eye as part of its
optical system and the resulting
pictures are in color. They have
great diagnostic value; the sur
geOn's decision depends many
times on these true-to-life photo
graphs.
Mrs. Brown relates that, ''Only
recently, a young lad who had his
eye hurt playing basketball was
brought into the hospital. A growth
had formed on the retina and ret
inal pictures were ordered. These
were airmailed to a famous eye
specialist in England to corroborate
our own surgeons diagnosis. With
nothing but these colored slides,
magnified and thrown on screen.
he recommended preserving the
eye, as our own men did. In time.
the growth went away, just as the
specialist said it would. and today
this boy has his sight"

unexpected American verbal protest
was Immediately reported.
Moscow Walks Warily.
Moscow is no longer as sure as
in the past that 1t can do anything
1t wishes without fear of any posi-
tive reaction from Washington and
the other Western capitals.
Diplomatic observers believe that
soon we may witness some new
Soviet reactions" in . different part
Of the world.
Within three months after the
Truman doctrine was announced
the Russians retaliated in Hungary
by crushing the lawfully elected
government and replacing 1t with
Communist puppets. The fact that
Washington recognized the new
order" in that country gave the
Kremlin encouragement to proceed
with the Sovietization of that por-
tion Of Europe.
Moscow may now use other tests
in different areas to probe Amer
ica's policies. However, the Soviet
leaders recently have shown more
concern over our actions.
Statement Caused Concern.
President Truman's carefully
worded statement on December a.
when American forces were leaving
Italy In accordance with the peace
treaty, that America will support
Italy's independence caused more OF
sensation in political and military
quarters In the Kremlin than was
anticipated, although the statement
was calculatedly careful.
It had been drafted originally In
unmistakable words. But the State
Department, which always Is con-
suited and passes on such matters,
decided that the White House draft
was too potent. A much-watered
version was sent back and the
President, who has never wavered
in his policy Of allowing each de-
partment full responsibility without
interference with its work, accepted
it.
Yet, In spite Of the mildness OF
Mr.. Trumans message to the Italian
people, the Kremlin was grestly
disturbed and ordered its propa-
ganda organs not to mention any
thing about what otherwise would
have been described as q new proof
of American aggression"
Last weeks strong protest to
Belgrade unquestionably is being
digested by Messrs. Molotov and

American people. This, in turn, is
part Of the larger picture Of the
White House budget and manage
ment practices which, always fex-
ible, became practically contorted
under the protean Franklin D
Roosevelt.
The fact is that no law binds
the President Of the United States
with respect to his personal privi-
leges or the White House itself
Custom rules and the only court
with jurisdiction is the court OF
public opinion. To paraphrase
Justice Stones famous AAA dissent,
the President in these fields need
be governed only by his personal
predictions.
Able to Transfer Funds.
Custom also gives him wide power
to impress the whole bureaucracy
into his service. II he can spy
funds In any Government agency
for purposes that correspond rough
ly to his own designs, he can
scrounge them. Subject only to his
own sense Of propriety and public
sentiment, he can call on any
agency OF Government to help him
fulfill his personal desires.
Only when he asks Congress for
funds for q direct purpose can Con-
gress give an effective opinion. Con-
gress, can, If sufficiently irked, in
quire whether funds are being
diverted from other sources or
where the money is coming from;
it can perhaps point out that q

When President Truman took

House had for years been run on
a nominal appropriation with per-

The Presidents valet is a Navy

Political Feud Hurts Plan.

Mr.. truman cannot carry on 9
political feud and at the same time
expect support for the Marshall plan
from all Republicans. There are
isolationist-m minded Democrats as
well as Republicans who do not like
the. Marshall plan and 1t requires
a bipartisan drive behind the pro-
posal to get it through Congress.
This means that the President
may have to pay a price to get his
wav-some manner Of tax revision
and some shifting Of ground In his
accusations of alleged Republican
responsibility tot the high COST of
grain and meat. Certainly II he
expects the Marshall. plan to COM
mand substantial support, he will
have to change his strategy.
Mr.. Truman could lose the cleo
Non easily by a wrong move now
and the Republicans could win In
= walk by fighting the Marshall
plan on purely political basis.
This means an appeal to basic
selfisfness and to the old anti
foreign, feeling which. when emo
tionally aroused, might conceivably
kill the Marshall plan as 1t did
the League Of Nations In the '20s.
If the cry is raised that there
would be plenty Of meat and lower
prices were 1t not for the export
TO other countries, there are mil
lions of voters in pivotal States
who would be misled by such a
shortsighted view. The danger is
that some Republicans will be
tempted by the type of argument
and more Of them could be goaded
into that course by Mr.. Truman's
partisan tactics. Never has there
been q greater need for dispas-
donate and unselish leadership in
the White House and never a
greater need to avoid the advice
M petty politicians and play the
part Of real craftsmanship. Is Harry
Truman the kind of man who can
see the difference? The next few
months will give the answer.
