An Excellent Appointment
New York Tines)

New YORK 1lmeS)
In an Administration not distinguished for the
excellence of appointments the naming of Gordon
GRAY as Secretary of the Army comes as welcome
and encouraging surprise. Although little of the
glow is taken away by the fact that he the Presl-
dents second choice nation has for thanks
that Mr. GRAY has finally picked for the post he
so clearly deserves better appointment could not
have been made.
Since he came to Washington as Assistant Secre-
tarv of the Army in 1947 Mr.. Gray has given as
tinpished and dsinterested public service For most
of the time he has been responsible for industrial
Mobilization and questions as they AFFECT
the ARMY and he has met the difficult problems IN
volved with energy and forthrighness But he is per-
hans best known the report which bears his name
and which aroused hornets nest when it was mace
public last August.
This report, representing the unanimous views of
six-man interservice committee established by the
late Secretary Forrestal and headed by Mr. Gray made
the logical and courageous recommendation that the
National Guard be combined with the Army's organ
lied and thus brought under complete federal
control The argument logical in that it extended
the principal of unification to the reserves 1t
courageous in that it meant attacking the vested
interests of the various State National Guard
CARNATIONS which have deep-rooed political power.
The Gray report has been pgeonholed, but per-
haps some day it will be revived. In any case
congratulate Mr.. Truman this non political ap-
pointment and trust that Mr. Gray will be speedily
confirmed by the Senate.

REAL ESTATE FRONT"

Inc real estate lobby mas learned
trick from the Communists. 1t
has now discovered the advantages
OF front" organizations. Behind the
fancy DISCUSSES. however, it's still
the same real estate lobby.
For instance, the Georgia Tax
payers League has been flooding the
state with post cards, opposing gov
eminent housing Inside fact is that
these post cards were actually writ
ten by Ed Hiles, hired executive
Of the Georgia Savings and Loan
League, an affiliate of the nation
al organization run by Morton Bod
fish, king of the real estate lobby
lists. which has been indicted for
falling to register under the lobby
ing act
Hiles also failed TO register when
he came to Washington recently to
lobby against public housing. Pin
ned down by this column. he admit
TED writing the post cards put out
by the George Taxpayers League.
The league. he confessed, has mo
charter no bylaws, no nothing.
The real estate groups simply
! thought it would be better to pose
p, as the Georgia Taxpayers League
than give their own names, Hiles
admitted. He Unidentified b. A. Mar
tin legislative chairman OF the At
lanta Home Builders Association
as head of the dummy organization
Phil LEngle, another Atlanta build
er, also is connected with it. Hiles
said.
Note-This attempt to disguise
the real estate lobby also reveals
new national strategy. Having
lost its battle in Washington. the
lobby is scattering to the states ia
carry on wide campaigns
against public housing and rent
/ control.

MISREPRESENTATION BILL

Delegate E. l.. Bartlett has told the Associated
Press in Washington that any prediction on whether
the Alaska statehood bill will be acted upon at the
present session of Congress is hazardous
The quarrel between the Hawaiian longshoremen
and employers in distant Hawaii will have much to do
with whether the House votes at this session on our
statehood bill" the Delegate said
There is reason to believe there is substance to
the report current in the capitol that there are SUI
ficient votes in the Rules Committee to send the
Alaska bill to the House for consideration.
But there is nsstence by some members of the
committee that both the Alaska and Hawaii bills be
considered at the same time
The prolonged Hawaii shipping strike has adj
mttedly harmed Hawas statehood cause and in doing
50 has undoubtedly slowed action the Alaska bill
Bartlett said few weeks ago it seemed certain
the Rules Committee ready to act favorabiy on
the Alaska bill Since thenit has refused to act on
either the Hawaiian or Alaskan bills.

SHINGLES
DR.. Sophia Brunson

A common and painful disorder
is shingles or herpes zoster. The di-
sease looks like the fever blisters
seen so frequently on the lips. In
shingles there is a breaking out on
the skin which follows nerve.
You have all seen the backbones
of animals, which are made up Of
bones called vertebrae. They are ar
ranged, in a column one above an
other. Right through the center of
each bone is a rounded hole through
which passes one of the most del
icate and important structures in
the body. 1t is called the spinal cord
and is composed of nerve tissue
from which the spinal nerves arise.
They find their way through the
numerous openings between the
vertehrae, and run out to supply
the entire body. Each nerve gives
Marion progress., 1949-07-28

off many branches, which supply
the muscles, the skin, and every
structure in the body.
If a tree is injured, or diseased
it. manifests itself by the sickly ap-
pearance of the foliage which often
turns yellow or drops off. Just so
any disturbance Of the nerve roots
shows itself in the skin, to the sur
face of which that particular nerve
runs.
When the trouble begins, the
first symptom is pain. Then the
skin turns red and the affected
area soon becomes covered with lit
tie waterblisters. They are in groups
or clusters. Their favorite location
is on the body over the ribs. They
usually follow the course of the in
tercostal nerves, though any part
of the body may be attacked, all
of which depends upon which spin
al nerve is affected or in other
words which nerve root is diseased.
Pain often comes several days
before the parts break out in little
blisters, that appear in small groups
along the course of the nerve.
One of the most painful forms of
shingles is herpes opthalmicus which
attacks one eye, the nose, the FORE
head, and even the scalp.
The lips often suffer from bis
ters known as herpesi labialis.
Sometimes they are very contage-
GUS, and are conveyed by handker-
chiefs, towels and other articles.
Fortunately the disease is self
the acute stages lasting a.
bout week when the vesicles be-
gin to dry up leaving a scab which
peels off in another week. The scars
gradually fade away.
In the young, shingles is seldom
very serious, but it is often danger
Gus as well as very painful to older
patients, who sometimes suffer
from neuralgia for weeks or months
after the disappearance of the bis
ters. 1t is fortunate that the same
individual seldom has shingles
twice, one attack seemingly conferr-
ing immunity against the poison
that causes it just as smallpox, and
some other virus diseases. Shingles |
is far more apt to attack tired run
down people than those who are in
good physical condition.
The vesicle should be protected |
from injury and kept painted with
a mild antiseptic, or covered with a
powder.
In extreme cases it is we'll to con-
suit your physician.
