On the Other Hand
1t Is Also True That Democrats
Cannot Win Without Mr.. Truman

good he could have used up their
entire time in one of his tributes to
home and mother. That is, if the
general sat silent. But the general
wouldn't have sat silent. He likes
to talk and he talks well. It Is part
OF his incredible charm. He could
easily have utilized such time as the
Senator yielded him without getting
around to civil rights.
The suspicion is strong that the
South Carolinian and others like him
are for Gen. Eisenhower simply be.
cause he may be able to take the
nomination away from Mr.. Truman
and not because they know what he
would do if he became President.
Which, as it is sometimes expressed,
is hell of a way to run a railroad.
Personally, If the Democrats are
concerned solely with finding a vote
getter, I like Ben Cohen's sugges-
ton better: Mrs. F. D. Roosevelt.
Everybody knows where she stands
and what she stands for.
People Entitled to Know.
That should be true OF any candi-
date the Democrats may consider.
Allowing, as we do, for a certain
amount of campaign gobbledygook,
we are entitled to know for what we
are voting. We will know If Presi-
dent Truman is renominated. We
will know we are voting for foreign
policy no different in any impor-
tant respect from the Republican
policy and for domestic policies no
different from President Roosevelt's.
But, it is said, the party cannot
win with Mr.. Truman. That prob
ably is true, barring two contin-
gencies. One is some unfortunate
development in our relations with
Russia that would make Mr.. Tru-
man a war President. The other
would be success on his part in put
ting the Republican Congress on the
defensive, where it belongs; as could
be achieved by calling Congress
back to finish its job,
However, If the party cannot win
with Mr.. Truman, it is equally true
tnat it cannot win without his
cooperation. That means that 1t
cannot nominate somebody else,
without his consent. Consent will
not be forthcoming for anybody he
doesn't know thoroughly and respect
completely.
Ben Cohen's candidate. as popular
in her own right as Gen. Eisen-
hover, would meet the Presidents
other requirements.

DURING recent years, the magic
word, 'Vitamins, has aroused in
terest, and doctors were quick to
learn that not enough Of the right
kinds Of vitamins may really raise
havoc in the body Citing just one
example a deficiency Of certain vi
tamins may lead to conditions al
fecting the mouth and gums. l refer
especially to deficiency OF Vitamin
C, which causes scurvy.
In scurvy there are mouth symp-
toms, including bleeding under the
lining membrane around the jaw
bone, and spongy, swollen. bleeding
gums. In advanced cases, actual
loosening Of the teeth may occur.
There is some evidence indicating
that certain cases Of gum inf1am-
nation may be the result of mild
scurvy.
Limited Amounts
On the other hand, the observa-
ton of large groups of people, who
have had limited amounts Of Vita
min C, has not shown that gum in
flammation or gingivitis developed.
When gum Inflammation is present,
it is always important to make sure
that the patient has received enough
Vitamin C, but the treatment Of
gum disease with Vitamin c alone
is not satisfactory.

quently accompanied by q typical
inflammation Of the tongue. in
which the tongue has purplish-red
color. These mouth symptoms may
also be accompanied by mild dis
turbance Of the eyes with pain,
when the eyes are exposed to light,
and some inflammation of the lining
membrane over the eye. These
symptoms due to ribofavin defi-
cheney clear up quickly when the
preparation is administered.
Swollen Tongue
Not enough niacin, also part Of
the vitamin B-complex. will cause
the tongue to become swollen and
scarlet in color. There is likely to be
an excessive saliva formation. These
symptoms may be accompanied by
diarrhes and vomiting; also a skin
eruption, with headache. dizziness,
and sleeplessness.
There is also evidence that lack
Of niacin may be a contributing
factor to the development Of a
mouth infection known as Vincent's
angina.
In view Of the fact that a def
cheney Of these various vitamins
may be related to mouth disorders,
it is important to make sure that
persons who have these disturb
ances are amply supplied with the
necessary vitamins.

For 10 to 12 large oranges, pre-
pare a syrup from 8 c. sugar, 8 C.

YESTERDAY, We considered the

between meals. Today, let US con-
slider, with you the neighbors who
let their youngsters park in your
home most of the time, even setting
the stage so they will. Among par
ents, as among other persons there's
the parent who is very selfish to-
ward other parents and there's often
some generous neighbor parent
who is an easy prey to this selfish
ness. In any neighborhood Of sew
eral children under seven or eight
there are one or more mothers who
have most Of these children most Of
the time. You may be such mother.
Even though you do sometimes
resent being imposed upon you
probably gain a vast deal Of salts
faction from seeing your own chill
dren having such good times and
from knowing that you are helping
make the neighbor children into
filter playmates for your children.
OF course, there is limit to how
much you can stand from being i'm
posed upon and still keep your self
regard; also a limit to how much
you can take in physical strain.
Closer Guidance
Aside from this gain to you and
your own children through your

doing these playnates. Through
your closer guidance Of all these
