George Wis Doctors
Expected 10 Define
Condition Monday
BY ne Asseeiatsd Prsss

LONDON, Nov. 27.-Just how Ill
Is Britain's 52-year-old King George
vi? That question may get q posi-
tive answer Monday.
Royal physicians then will issue
their first report since disclosures
this week that the king is suffering
from IAN obstruction to the circula-
ton through the arteries OF the
legs"
They may even give . more def
mite explanation Of that obstruction.
But most people are already con-
vinced the kings condition is seri-
GUS.
IL Years Of Strain.
That does not necessarily mean
that his life Is In danger. But IL
crowded years Of strain on . man
who never expected to face such
trials apparently have claimed their
price. Just the same price that
strain and worry and overwork
claim from millions Of other men
every year.
That price is: Give up trying to
do more than your body will allow.
II the price is paid, the patient
may expect to live out q normal
span of years.
II 1t is not paid, the worst can
happen.
The King is resting now. That was
what the doctors ordered. What else
these royal physicians will do to
help nature repair his health has
not been announced.
Newspapers speculate that they
are using electro -therapy and mas
sage.
Drug, Operation Suggested.
Some people in other parts Of the
world have suggested that the King
might be helped by some new drug
or . nerve operation. There u no
comment on this from Buckingham
Palace.
The doctors have said only that
treatment to improve the circula-
ton In the legs has been initiated"
But whatever is done, one thing
seems certain: The British people
will see their King much less fire.
quently In the months to come.
For the physicians said:
There is no doubt that the strain
of the past IL years has appreciably
affected his resistance to physical
fatigue"

If we fail to extend the rec

The Council will find a ready
response to this part of its
program. Everyone knows that

NATIONAL CITIZENS

the human rights battle is the

The National Citizen Coun-
Gil has three objectives. 1t be-
lleves first that the recon-
mendations of the Report of
the Presidents Committee on
Civil Rights must be fought
for in each mans backyard" "
Communities, large and Small,
throughout the country must
take responsibility for winning
recognition of the rights of
those Americans who, as yet,
IN some areas, are deprived of
the opportunity to exercise
their rights fully. The Council
will find a lot of support. All
over this country there are
people who not only will fight
for human rights, but who
have already given a good ac-
count of themselves. Some.
times we do not hear about
them. But without them there
would be no victories for Am
erican ideals.
The National Councils sec.
ond object is stated thus, This
Council recognizes that Am
erica's moral force as a power
for peace and freedom is in
large part determined by the
status of our civil rights at
home. The vast majority of the
people Of the world still have
the choice of freedom. These
people look to the United
States for spiritual leadership
We can justify this faith only
if our example is fortnight
and inspiring. If we fail, these
people will despair and drift
away from freedom and, event
ually, AMERICA itself will be-
come ernbroiled in the newt
able holocaust
In spite of the progress Am
rica has made to secure the
rights of man, there are still
