Nerves
Costly Stiff Spines

Sa1/ Sua'' S'iS
Don't blame a hard mattress or your
shoes for that ache in the small of
your back. It may be of your own
making, a neurO-psychiatrist ex-
planned this week.
In a symposium at the American
Association of Railway Surgeons 60th
annual convention in Chicago, DR.. AL
fred P. Solomon Of st. Luke's Hos
pital, Chicago, said many people
experience lower back pains as a re-
suit of not being able to cope with
everyday pressures.
For example, fear of being domi-
mated by your boss, mate or mother
in-laW brings on anxiety which causes
you to stiffen your spine.
The desire to do something in a
situation which requires you to re-
main passive can bring the same re-
action. Some persons, the doctor said,
can't wait in line to buy tickets. They
Immediately tighten their spines.
Similar tension results when you
tense up with worry over meeting a
deadline.
DR.. Solomon urged relaxation in
such situations. Learn not to be con-
cerned about being passive, he ad-
vised. Realize that the world will not
come to an end if you don't meet a
deadline.

Spain
One-Porty Elections

One-FQTIX ELECTIONS
Spain's first municipal elections
under the Franco regime resulted-to
TO ones surprise-in victory for pro-
Franco councilmen throughout the
country.
Last Sundays elections were the
first since the end of the civil war in
1889. So-called official tickets were
supported by the appointed provincial
and city administrations and the to-
talitarian Falange Party, Spain's only
political party.
The Ministry of the Interior re-
ported that 709 per cent of the $780,
598 heads of families eligible to vote
had done so. Eligible voters who did
not vote are liable to fines.
There was little underground ac-
tivity by leftist organizations. AS far
as could be learned, the underground
urged voters to stay away from the
polls only in Madrid, Seville and Bar
celOna.
The voting was for one-third of the
council members. A second third is
to be named this Sunday and the final
third chosen by the previously Sc
lected tWO-thirds on December 3.

Need for Teachers


This country will need more than a
million new grade school teachers
approximately 100000 a year in the
next decade.
That's the estimate of a joint COM
mittee of the National Congress of
Parents and Teachers and the Ma
tiOnal Education Association.
Because of an accumulated short
age, the committee says, 10000 to
175,000 new elementary teachers are
needed in 1948-49 Yet in 1948 only
about 10000 new elementary teach
ers were prepared by American col
leges at one, two, three and four-year
preparation levels. Fewer than 10000
of these were college graduates.
The committee recommends no low
ering of teacher-preparation stand
ards. States with the lowest standards
have the greatest shortages, a survey
shows.
The need for million new elemen-
tary teachers in the next 10 years is
based on statistics showing this break
down:
To fill new positions, 277, 900; to re-
place those who will leave the profess

Range Sfrefchers

Range Sfrefchers
The us. Air Force is planning to
increase the range of its Superbomb-
ers by adding fleets of aerial tankers
for midair refueling along the route
to targets.
Experiments underway for more
than a year have proved possible a
system in which a SuperfOrtress can
be filled with virtually a full load of
gasoline in Is minutes. Last spring
Air Secretary SymingtOn told a con-
gressiOnal committee that with such
a system B-29s could bomb any part
of Russia from Alaska or Labrador.
The Air Force plans to equip six
groups of B-29s for aerial refueling.
In the future a B-29 group still will
comprise three squadrons, but each
squadron will have Is instead of 10
planes. The total number of bombers
and tankers in group will be IS in
stead of the traditional 30 bombers.
The Air. Force also is testing new
and more powerful engines for it's
largest plane, the B-36. The SiX-en-
gine bomber repeatedly shows i'm
proved performance in rate of climb,
ceiling and speed, with new $500
horsepower engines instead of the
5000 horsepower originally used.
The big plane was designed to fly
10000 miles with 10000 pounds of
bombs but with original type motors
it has not yet achieved this. The in
creased horsepower may push its per-
fOrmance past the designers goal.

What Aid
To China?

WHAT to do about China IS
w one of the most pressing
problems confronting the United
States. It's a top-drawer diplo-
matte decision, one penetrating to
the core of Americas new global
foreign policy. And it has to be made
quickly.
Under the Marshall Plan Gas origi-
nally conceived) the United States
has thrown its economic might against
Communism in Europe. Aid to China
traditionally had been a separate
project until Congress last spring tied
it in, almost as an afterthought, to the
$685. 100000 European Recovery Pro-
gram.
Success in Europe
The Marshall Plan has succeeded, at
least temporarily, in stemming Com
munist domination of western Euro
pean nations. But the Marshall Plan
for China has not Jared so well.
Total American wartime and post
war aid to China is estimated by the
State Department at $500, 100000,
including Lend-Lease. This has ali
been funneled to Generalissimo
Chang Kai-shek.
The war with Japan interrupted a
civil war between Chiang's National
ist government and Chinese Commu-
nists. On VI Day, the Chinese
switched back to fighting each other.
During the last year Chiang's Ma
tionalist government has suffered Sc
we're military and economic losses.
Chinese Communists now control all
Manchuria, dominate most of north
China and threaten to push National
ist armies out Of central China.
Chang Appeals for Help
President Truman and Secretary of
State Marshall conferred in Washing
ton on grave aspects of the Chinese
situation. Only last week, Chang ad-
dressed an urgent appeal to Mr.. Tru-
man for more American help, both
economic and military.
Some American authorities hold il
is too late now to help the tottering
Nationalist cause. Others estimate it
would take as much as five billion
dollars to make aid to China effective
and adequate.

Report
Reds & Religion

"You cannot be a Communist and
believe in God" says the House IN
American Activities Committee.
It's report, "One Hundred Things
You Should Know About Communism
and Religion" is one of a series to be
made public before the end of the
year. Others will deal with education,
labor and government. Already pub
lished is "One Hundred Things You
Should Know About Communism in
the U.S.A."
"YOu cannot believe in God and
have a peaceable life under Commu-
nism," says the new report. In all
their plans and actions, Communists
mark down religion as Enemy No. /.
Where they dominate, they attack it
head on. Where they do not dominate,
they try to deceive and corrupt from
within.
Communism cannot dominate fam
lily life, for example, until it first has
fought its way past the influence of
religion upon the family.
Communism cannot force its own
moral code upon a person without
first destroying his moral code rooted
in religion"
The report is in the form of 1OC
questions and answers supplied by the
committee. Here are a few:
Q. If Communism should come tC
the US, could I belong to a church?
A. You would have to choose al
once between church and Commu.
nism. If you should choose the church
then prepare for persecution.
@. Would the Communists destroy
the Bible?
A. Every copy they could find They
would Jail anyone trying to prin
new copies.

Fight on Housing
Twice-beaten long range housing is
one bill that seems certain to be given
priority in the new Congress. But
even though leaders expect it to pass,
they anticipate stiff fight on it again
in the House, where it failed pre-
viously each time.
The new bill will be similar if not
identical to the Taft-E Ellender- Wagner
measure of the last two Congresses.
Sen. Allen J. Ellender (D-La) has
said he will revive it soon after Con-
gress meets.
Sen. Joseph r. Mccarthy (R-Wis. },
an opponent of the original TEW bill,
agreed that it probably will be writ
ten into law at the next session. He
said:
"3ut if anybody thinks passing a
bill is going to mean any more homes
for those who need them most in the
next few months or even years, they
will be badly fooled We have hous-
ing shortage now that will exist for
the next six or seven years. The most
we can do is help reduce it over that
period"
Controversy over the TEW bill CEN
tered on its slum clearance, public
housing and rural housing provisions.
Under these the federal government
would aid cities and local communi-
ties in providing housing for low in
come groups.

Walking soon after the operation

A child at about 2h years often
appears obstinate and perverse, fre-
quently doing the exact opposite Of
what he is told, DR.. Gesell said. Actu-
ally, however, the child may be only
confused and spanking is particularly
bad. He is just learning the difference
between opposites, like yes and no.

He has to obey but doesn't quite
understand. But by the age of three,

By understanding these things about
a child, parents and doctors can do
much to strengthen mental health,

The Hornemaker's Corner
Save. Steps With a Work Center
By MARY DOUGLAS

New appliances and home de-
signs point toward greater house
hold efficiency by concentrating
most household jobs in a single
work center.
The kitchen-laundry brings
the food preparation, dishwash-
ing, clothes washing, and even
1.-THE ironing duties into one COM
pact area, saving work, steps and
time. Under this arrangement
the family washing becomes a
part of the days routine instead
of a separate job in a basement
laundry.
The kitchen is a light and
pleasant place to do the weekly
wash-and does not call for trips
up and down basement stairs.
Doing the laundry in the kitchen
makes for more efficient use
of time since other jobs can be
taken care of while clothes are
swishing in the machine.
One of the newest appliances
to meet the requirements OF the
kitchen laundry is an "auto-
magic sink" with built-in clothes
and dishwasher. A three way
time and space saver, the 54-
inch cabinet has standard por-
celain sink and black linoleum-
topped drainboard under which
the washing units arc located.
