WhyGrow
Old?
By JossbhjHs Lov,nax

Here comes IN exercise which
will save your neck from the worst
thing that can happen to It outside
OF hanging, namely, aging!
We sometimes ~ women Of mid
die age or more who have youth
full necklines. Whenever sse one
I am extremely rude In asking what
she has done to get such lovely
results. Usually the sincere compli-
ment softens her opinion Of me
and she tells me. II you investigate
you will always find sensible rea-
sons for this enviable condition.
One can Immediately observe good
posture, and one usually finds good
nutrition and exercises q . back
ground.
All Of the women I have inter-
viewed on this subject have engaged
in exercise Of some sort and skin
fabrication. One had q long -estab-
lished habit Of playing the game Of
blowing . feather about the room,
trying to keep it from landing On
the floor or furniture. This was
fne for neck as well q for face
contour. Another frankly had In
dulged in neck exercises for years
and years and she was In her 7os,
and had . remarkably youthful
throat.
This all sounds like mumbo jum-
bo in Q way, but the exercise results
are unquestionable. It is much easier
to believe that nothing will make
any difference, because we can then
do nothing with . free conscience.
However, II you are willing to allow
. small daily time for self improve
ment, mental or physical, the bene-
fits will repay you beautifully.
The following exercise Is correc-
tive to = dowager's hump and Is
also hne for the muscles Of the
neck:
Lie On the floor on your back.
Bend your knees and place your
feet nat on the door. Arms rest
on the floor at your sides. Roll your
head backward, lifting your neck
and shoulders from the floor. Hold
. few seconds and return shoulders
and neck to the floor. Relax and
repeat. Start doing this only about
eight times daily. Gradually In
crease until you are doing the
exercise Is times daily,

PHILADELPHIA, Mar. 10. - j.
Howard ,McGrath, Democratic Ma
tional Committee chairman, last
night turned his party's back on
Henry Wallace, and Carroll Reece,
Republican National Committee
chairman, speaking with Senator
McGrath at the Philadelphia Bull
letin Forum, said that the "Repub-
ncan Party Is a united party. It
has no Moscow wing"
|Senator. McGrath struck with his
fight hand at the Republicans and
his left at Henry Wallace.
! He charged that much Of the
Republican leadership in Congress
has been steadily showing that its
political course is governed largely
by the dead hand Of isolationism. I"
! He said the bipartisan foreign pol
ICY must continue.
Senator McGrath charged-with-
but directly naming him-that Sen
&tor Taft, Republican, of Ohio
fwould cripple the Marshall plan
and rewrite the entire United Ma
ticns charter"
OF MIR. Wallace, the Democratic
chairman said the former Vice
President "can condemn the BIZ
partisan foreign policy and offer
nothing more than abject appease-
fnent to the forces Of goddess COM
munisrn."
Mr.. Reece said the country must
have "a united party in control Of
our government II we are to have
O united Nation"
The Republican Party is a united
party" he said. "It has no Moscow
wing. It has no radical wing. It
has no Pendergast wing. It has no
Jim Crow wing" q
Senator Taft spoke out on the
same program against financing
union political action through forced
donations. AS a candidate for the
presidential nomination, Senator
Taft has strong opposition from
organized labor.
mo union ought to take dues
contributed for labor union purposes
and use 1t to defeat a candidate
whom the individual union member
may favor" he declared. Money
to be used for political purposes
ought to be frankly solicited from
those willing to contribute for that

summed up his testimony in fou1
points:
81. World peace is definitely
threatened by the worldwide ex-
pansion plans Of the Communist
leaders. -
-. A strong, Independent, ante
Communist Chinese national gov.
ernment constitutes our only hope
Of halting the spread of communism
In Asia and Of preserving the peace
Of the world. China, because of its
strategic geographical position, must
be included in any overall plan fo1
resisting the spread of communism
for II China goes Communist, all Of
continental Asia will quickly follow
and there will be no continental
Asian bases left to us.

aid quickly II an anti Communist
national government is to survive
The alternative Is a Communist
anti-American government.
a. Failure to provide adequate
aid to China at this time will con-
stitute the greatest failure of Amer
ican foreign policy III all of our his
tory and will inevitably set the
stage for World War III"
Gen. Cherinault said the leaders
Of communism are out to COM
munize all nations, either by peace
ful tnfiltration, internal revolution
or force. He said he believed they
would rather do it by peaceful
means, but quickly added:
They will not hesitate to plunge
the world into another world war
If their objective cannot be fitted
into Russia's long-range policy very
nicely"
The general expressed doubt that
any sum Of money could within q
reasonable number of years build up
the anti Communist states Of Eu-
rope to a point where they could
resist the full power of a Russian
offensive for more than q few
months.
while we have concentrated our
attention upon a Europe whose
value is doubtful as an asset for
the prevention Of war or for the
winning of q war which may be
forced upon us, the Communists are
pushing on rapidly with their plan
for communizing China" he con-
tinued.
Expects No Attack in West.
ut is my firm belief the Com
munists will not launch an attack
In the west until they have secured
their eastern continental front by
the communication of China, at
least. It is also my firm belief that,
If and when China is communized,
we will be confronted Immediately
with the necessity for deciding
whether we will engage in a-third
world war or retire to the defense
of the American continents.
1T is obvious that under such
conditions, our chance Of defend
ing the European states which re-
main outside the iron curtain at
the time will be extremely doubtful
and enormously expensive"
