This means, he explained, that
drivers should slow down in ad-
vance when approaching inter
sections so that there will be a
margin of safety should an emer-

they should anticipate that the

by anticipating these mistakes,

AGAIN NOSTALGIA.

On two occasions it has been ex-
planned here that nostalgia Is pri-
marty a medical and psychological
term for q morbid form of mental
derangement-a psychotic longing
to return home, ise., severe home
sickness, from the Greek nostos, "a
return home" plus algia, pain"
I have reported the weird misuse
Of nostalgia and ~nostalgic by many
writers: Betty Cradle does some
nostalgia vaudeville hoofing. The
dress has nostalgia little touches Of
lace at the neck" He looked at her
with nostalgia In his eyes" This
makes wentz feel at home. which
makes him nostalgically grateful
Che Is homesickly grateful for feel
ing at homeD"
Here are additional examples OF
the insane craze for using the words
on every possible occasion. A Cali
fornia newspaper speaks OF 'nostal-
gic river barges" A radio emcee
calls Eugene O'Neili's play, "Ah,
Wilderness a gay and nostalgia
comedy"
A Broadway columnist describes
night club singer as "tne rowing
nostalgia expert" The same writer
tells Of the audience breaking into
nostalgia filters" over an old rec
ording of Button Up Your Over
coat!"
What 1t all adds up to Is simply
this: Some prominent writer STUN
bled upon the word nostalgia He
greeted his discovery with glad
yelps, and fell upon his typewriter
with palpitating zeal Other writers
not to be outdone, rushed into print
with nostalgia and nostalgia, thus
proving that they too know q thing
or two about sophisticated writing.
And now the misuse has reached
the state of an epidemic.
But no one has yet been able 10
figure out what these writers think
the words mean.
OF course. one could look In the
dictionary and and that nostalgia

Goren on Bridae

It Is difficult enough, in many
cases, to reach a sound slam con-
tract when partner is putting up
the best possible bidding, but when
the ultimate is reached, despite
partners effort to becloud the issue,
a laurel wreath of special splendor
is in order. North assumed the role
of Jekyll and Hyde. His first bid
of four spades does not have our
sanction, but he changed his per-
sonality in time to make a very
fine bid the next time it came his
turn.
The hand illustrates point which
we have recently been stressing:
that the singletc the deciding
factor In multitut Of slams. Note
that If North's hearts and diamonds
are interchanged there Is no slam
because of the loss Of two diamond
tricks. Possession of the right
singleton makes hundreds of points
worth of difference.
We object to North,s first bid of
four spades because there is no
occasion to crowd the bidding with
hands of this type. The splendid
trump support, the singleton of the
adverse suit and the good side suit
are all factors that should make
North bullish about the hand and
he should allow himself plenty Of
bidding space to describe these
various features. Possession of three
aces by South Ga holding which in
this case is by no means remote)
will make the slam an odds-on-
favorite. The hand, therefore,
lends itself readily to treatment in
the Blackwood manner.
In the methods we espouse the
recommended bid is a one-round
f4sce of Three clubs. South will
t1en.saow his second suit and North
may theN follow with jump in
spades, flENng that suit as trump.
With spades as trump, South should
make an effort toward slam by bid
ding five clubs. This should be
interpreted as a cue bid rather than
an attempt to play the minor suit
when North has raised spades so
violently. At this point. North holds
the key to the success of the slam
in the singleton diamond and should
bid six spades.
On the actual bidding when North
leaped to four spades, South was
willing to take his chances on a
slam If North could protect against
the loss of two diamonds. What
was the logical way to find out9
It was pointless to show one of the
aces because it was perfectly evident
that North would be able to do no
more than return to five spades.
Since there was not time to show
both aces, South concluded that he
would imply that he had them both,
in this sequence, by bidding five
spades. This in plain language was
intended to say: Partner, every
thing else is under control but the
diamond suit, which the enemy has
bid. If you can take care of it please
bid a slam. North decoded the
message properly and contracted for
six spades. To repeat: A sudden
step beyond game to five In a major
when nothing has previously been
said about suit the opponents have
bid should be taken as a request v

During this past week in Wash
ington the spotlight of publicity
has been turned on the question
of public health. So diverse is the
opinion on the question that not
only congress-, but the medical
profession itself has been split
wide open. Indications now are
that the congress may take some
action-for instance, to provide
for more disqualification, medical
centers and other essentials of
the proposed measures - but
there is little chance of a meet
ing of the minds in this session
on the highly-controversial sub
ject of compulsory medical in
surance.
Publication, only recently, of a
plan approved and sponsored by
the American medical association,
which has, until this year, denied
there was need for such plan at
all, has stimulated discussion and
brought to a focus the state of
the nations health and the ques-
ion of what to do about it. Is this
question a matter for private
solving? Should it be done with
state and local funds, if at all?
Should it be done with federal
funds, plus the private compul-
sion of an insurance plan?
There are already three impor-
tant measures in the congress.
Senate bill No. S, signed by five
senators; the Cellar bill in the
House CHR 345) and the Dingell
bill in the house CHR 1889. The
latter bill is almost identical with
the senate bill. Both are admin
istration bills. The ANA bill is
scheduled for introduction soon.
The principal difference in the
ANA measure and the admins
tration bills is that the admins
tration bills provide for finance
of hospitals and training of new
medical personnel with govern
ment grants and of compulsory
health insurance with a three per
cent payroll tax split one and
one-half per cent from the en-
ploye and one and one-half per
cent from the employer.
The ANA bill contemplates fl
nancing the measures with local
and state funds almost exclusive
ly and voluntary private health
insurance plan, similar but less
costly than the Blue Cross or
other similar plans.
The fact that the federal gov
ernment already is spending
something like two billion dol
lars annually for health services,
including the veterans admins
tration costs, is speeding up the
plans to adopt a program which
the proponents say will bring
about better health conditions

Dear One, cannot face the future years,
The loneliness and PAIN the bitter tears
shed when'er I think that you're away
1t seems miss you more, Dear, every day.
Though friends kind and do their best to cheer
This path that's left for to walk alone;
Their friendship means so little to me- Dear,
If can't walk close to your side, My Own.
/ stand beside the grave wherein you rest
This heart of mine is filled with bitter pain;
try to. understand that God knows best
Though longing just to you again.
If could only you again
And clasp your hand / wont to do,
1t seems to me that it would ease the pain
To clasp my hands in prayer again with you.
But God still sends the sunshine and the rain
And winter follows of DID,
Yet though my life of loss than gain

When comes the sunset of life's stormy day,
? Each heart will rest beyond the harbor bar;
All pain and will be swept away
And blessed peace will reign in realms afar.
