OBTAINING EXPERT ADVICE

Many unions, especially where
the incidence of industrial accid-
ents is high have become work
mems compensation conscious. Such
unions have, either through their
legal counsel or special representa-
tives, made arrangements to pro-
vide their members with expert ad-
vice concerning specific workmen's
compensation problems.
Unfortunately, oth e unions,
have not yet educated their mem
bership with respect to their work
mems compensation rights.
1t is often a technical question as
to whether or not the worker is
entitled to benefits. Thus, a work
er who is hurt while going to or
coming from work may or may not
be entitled to benefits depending
upon the particular facts in his
case. There have been thousands of
court decisions on whether an ac-
cident arises out of and in the
course of employment. The aver
age workman cannot be familiar
with these problems in detail.

pensation Board of most states will
give any injured employee impair
tial advice concerning his claim, he
lis entitled to more than that. He is
entitled to have his claim present
ed in the most favorable light. In
deed, it is essential that this be
done in view of the fact that the
employers insurance company has
available, and constantly uses, a
large staff of legal, medical and
clerical experts, whose sole func-
tion is either to defeat a compen-
sation claim or to restrict the pay
ments of benefits to minimum.
1t is impossible to stress too
strongly the need for obtaining ex-
pert advice as early as possible.
The law of Workmen's Compensa-
tion as it has developed in this
country, is so technical, the fact
situations, both medically and prac-
tically, are so varied that the ad-
vice of an expert in workmen's
compensation is essential to insure
maximum benefits for the injured
worker. This is especially true
when the insurance company is
opposing a claim for compensation.

WHY DOCTORS ASK
FOR URINALYSIS'

| (albumen) become solid. The same
thing happens in the heat test OF
urine speciment. If cloudy
skum forms over the top of the
urine that does not dissolve in acid,
there is albumen present; and in
most instances, your physician will
order further tests.
The microscopic tests are given
to find out more in detail about the
patients health. One of the first
things the doctor looks for under
the microscope is the presence of
white corpuscles. These cannot be
seen by the naked eye but must be
viewed under a microscope. White
corpuscles in the urine may mean
diseases or disorders of the urinary
tract. Red corpuscles, on the other
hand, might be caused by anything
from very innocent condition such
as a ruptured capillary or small
blood vessel to a serious problem
such as cancer or tuberculosis.
Another microscopic test is for
"casts." These are present only in
cases of kidney ailments. They are
caused by heavy concentrations of
albumen which have solidified in
the tube and actually passes in the
shane of the tube itself.
The Importance of the urinalysis
cannot be overestimated. The kid
neys are the filter of the entire sys-
tenn. Through a complicated pro
cess, the blood flows through the
kidneys where it is purified of pois-
ons which might have accumulated
in the body. These waste materials
are passed through the urine and
their presence in the urine gives
the physician an indication of dis
eases and infections which are in
the patients body.
The urinalysis is only one routine
step in the physical examination,
but is a most important part of it.
No examination is complete with
out it. The urinalysis is like a sign
directing the physician which way
to turn and where to go next in
your examination.

Dewey Revealing
His ignorance OF
Labor Problems

w a s hin g ton (LPA) - Gov.
Dewey's latest about-face on where
labor and social welfare activities
of the government should center
shows "his ignorance of labor pro-
blems and his lack of sympathy for
real social legislation" Chairman
George Harrison Of Labor's Com
mittee for Truman & Barkley
charged last week.
In little-noticed back platform
speech in Rensselaer,, Ind. the COP
candidate promised, if elected, to
set up department of "social pro-
gress" of equal cabinet rank with
Natl Defense, Agriculture, Com
merce, Labor, and other federal de-
partments.
Into it he would move an assort-
ment of government agencies-not
the least of them several now work
ing as a part of the Labor Dept,
including the Wage & Hour Divis-
ion, which enforces most of the
Fair Labor Standards Act and the
Walsh-Healey act.
This, Harrison pointed out to re-
porters, contrasts with Dewey's
earlier talk in Pittsburgh, where he
was specifically appealing for the
labor vote. There the COP candi-
date had said: "We will make the
Labor Dept equal in actual cab
met status to Commerce and
Agriculture"

Labor Representation On Rent Boards
Reported Low In Many industrial Areas

Washington.-Nearly Is percent
of the 4,447 members of the local
rent advisory boards set up under
the Housing Act of 194S, are trade
union membes, over half of them
representing AFL unions, accord
ing to data received by the AFL's
Housing Committee from the office
of the Housing Expediter.
The rent boards have the respon
sibility of recommending to the
Housing Expediter actions with re-
spect to decontrol, adjustment of
the general rent level, relief of
hardship cases, and operations of
the local rent area offices.
The survey shows that labor is
under-represented in some of the
most important industrial areas of
the country. Labor representation
on rent advisory boards in New
York state, for example, is below
the national average despite the
large trade union membership in
that state. In New York City there
are only labor members Of the II
on the rent advisory board. Labor
has only one representative each in
the upstate cities of Rochester,
Buffalo and Syracuse, each of
which have 10 members on their
board.
In the Chicago area, labor has
only one representative of total
of "a members on the board in that
area. For the state of Illinois as a
whole, there are only 29 labor rep
resentatives out Of total of 232.
In Texas labor has only II repre-
sentatives Of total of 23S, or only
about percent. There are no labor
representative at all in Dallas, FL
Paso, Galveston and San Antonio
and only one each in Fort Worth
and Houston.
Labor has only 8 members sitting
on rent advisory boards in the
state Of Missouri. Labor has only
one representative each in the in
dustrial centers of Kansas City and
st. Louis.

AS the United States News puts
lit, former President Herbert Hoov-
er "may have more influence upon
the country now than he ever did
while he was in the White House."
The reason for this hasn't any
thing to do with partisan politics,
or the possible resurgence of the
long starved Republican party. 1t
is, instead, due to the fact that Mr..
Hoover is head of a little-known
but immensely important commits
sion-the Commission on OrganiZa-
tion of the Executive Branch of the
government. And that calls for a
little background information.
The Federal government, like
Topsy, "just growed." Bureau dup
licates bureau. There is tremen-
dous overlapping of responsibility.
In some cases several independent
agencies are charged with doing al
most an identical job. The result is
a heavy waste in manpower and
m oney - plus a disheartenlng
amount of red tape and admins
trative lethargy and ineffciency.
Ever since anyone can remember
there has been talk about doing
something to remedy this unhappy
situation. Taft, Wilson, Hoover and
f. d. Roosevelt all had plans of
one kind or another. And all of
them got precisely nowhere. And
one Of the main causes of their
failure was pressure on Congress
by governmental employees who
were afraid of being displaced. To
quote the US. News again, "All
past moves toward abolishing gov
ernment agencies, or trimming
down their power, have run up
against this roadblock. The en-
ployes go to their friends, and their
friends go to Congress. Thus, some
times Congress has rejected presi-
dential plans for reorganization at
the outset"
The S0th Congress created and
financed the Commission which Mr..
Hoover heads. 1t is to report within
10 days after the 81st Congress
convenes next year. The law auth
orizing it provided that it be on
strictly bipartisan basis-with half
the commissioners Republicans and
half Democrats. President Truman
Immediately signed the act, and APP
pointed the former President as
boss. The broad objective is a
sweeping study Of what can be
done to improve the executive
branch.
The complete study, of course,
has not yet been made. However,
Mr.. Hoover recently made talk
in which he outlined some of the
reforms which will be recommend
I'd. AS an example, he intimated
hat the Commission will propose
hat the number of Federal lend

The urinalysis has long been a
familiar term to anyone who has
ever been in a hospital, or, for that
matter, to anyone who has ever
had physical examination. We all
recognize the term as part of what
is generally referred to as routine
laboratory"
What few of us know is what
the doctor finds out when he makes
urinalysis, how it is done, what it
means to the doctor in deciding
what is wrong with you.
Principally, the urine tests re-
veals how well your kidney and
urinary passageways are function
| ing. The test may show evidence of
disease Of the kidneys, bladder or
urinary canals. 1t also shows early
evidence of general conditions or
other disorders-heart trouble, di-
abetes, cancer and even tubercu-
losis.
One of the first requirements of
an accurate urinalysis is a fresh
speciment. A fresh speciment
should be clear. If it is cloudy, the
technician or doctor finds out why.
The routine analysis includes sew
eral tests, all of which give the
doctor information which serves as
clues to your state of health: l.
amount, 2-color, 3-specific gravity,
4-chemical reaction, 5-albumen, g.
microscopic examination, 7-sugar.
The amount of urine you pass is
in direct relationship to the effic-
iency of your kidney. Obviously, if
your kidneys and urinary passages
are healthy, the more water or
other liquids you consume, the more
you will pass. If you drink lots of
water and other fluids and pass
only a little, something is wrong.
The color is sometimes the out
ward sign of some abnormality
that the doctor will find as he pro-
ceeds with the tests. Red urine
may be caused by bleeding; yellow
urine may be caused by jaundice,
etc.
Specific gravity is check of the
solid substance in the urine. This
test is made with a urinometer, a
gadget which resembles and works
precisely on the same principle as
the instrument the garage mechanic
uses in testing the fluid of battery
or radiator of your car.
Chemical reaction tests are made
to determine whether or not the
urine is alkaline or acid.
The sugar test is one of the most
important. A small tablet is dropp-
ed into a solution of urine and
water to determine how much
sugar is there. If there is little or
no, sugar, the chemical turns the
solution blue. If there is some, it
turns green, and increased amounts
of sugar are shown progressively
by tan and orange. Large amounts
of sugar in the solution are indi-
Gated when the solution turns
bright red as the special chemical
is dropped in.
The albumen test shows the pre-
sence of disease or infection in the
kidney or bladder or urinary tract.
This is the heat test. A sample of |
urine is heated to the boiling point.
Everyone who has ever boiled an
egg has seen the white of the egg /

ing agencies be drastically reduced
Tan adroit citizen" he said, "can
probably borrow something from 26
different agencies in this govern
ment."
The report-judging by Mr..
Hoover's remarks-will dwell heav-
| lily on the unconscionable burden
that has been placed on the Presi-
dent. His legal duties and respon-
sibilities have been increased to an
incredible extent in the last few de-
cades. The Executive Department,
Mr.. Hoover believes, must be
streamlined and made more effic-
lent, and that will require the de-
legation Of functions. In his own
words: "More operating vice-presi-
dents-that is, more responsibility
on cabinet members-is the answ-
er. The President must be relieved
of some of this administration of
these small agencies running
around loose"
In this connection, there was a
hint that the Commission may re-
commend an increase in the num-
ber of Cabinet members. In addi-
tion to the 10 Departments, the Ex-
ecutive is in direct charge of from
so to 80 Independent agencies
and some of them are exceedingly
important, complex and specialized.
The impossibility of one man doing
the job properly was emphasized
by Mr. Hoover when he said, "lf
the President devoted one hour to
each, he would have 70-hour
week" All the other onerous work
which the President has to do
would come on top of that.
Mr.. Hoover also touched on the
dangers of excessively costly gov
eminent, when he said, "We have
not yet socialized property in the
United States, but we have come
close to socializing savings" 1t is
clear that our vast commitments
for rearmament, foreign rehabili-
tation, and the really essential
functions of government, make it
all the more important that we
pare costs wherever possible, and
to the greatest possible degree.
There is hardly a branch of the
government which will not be
touched upon when the Commiss-
ions report goes to Congress-. Mr..
Hoover has assumed personal dir
ection of the group studying the
Presidency. Other groups, all staff
ed by experts in various fields, have
been assigned the jobs of dealing
with buying, veterans, farming,
statistics, foreign affairs and so
down the list. In all, % reports are
being prepared in order to provide
the groundwork for dealing with
the big picture. Mr.. Hoover has
said, "We are going to have to
make some very bold and drastic
recommendations" Most citizens
will say Amen to that.
As election day draws nigh, the
crystal gazers are pretty much
agreed on certain forecasts. They |
are: the popular vote will give !
Dewey a substantial edge; the
electoral vote will be overwhelm-
ingly in his favor; the Wallace
is in bad shape.
Oddly enough, the Democrats
nave an outside chance to capture
he Senate. That is why Mr..
Dewey has gone out of his way to
