Space Still Wide Open
For New Definitions

ciety-are inclined to shake
their heads. More precise def
nitions, they assert, are needed
before earthmen can even be-
gin to discuss the control of
any part of space.
They distinguish between
simple space" which to them
lies just beyond our atmos-
phere, and "outer space" which
means the great interstellar or
ntergalactic voids beyond our
solar system. A year ago when
the Air Force-sponsored Astro-
nauticS Symposium was held at
San Diego, much attention was
given to space semantics. Spa
biography" was invented with
distinctions, for example, be-
tween cislunar and translunar
space. cismartian and trans
marian space. The phrase
"graviSpheres" was coined,
meaning space areas affected by
gravitational bodies.
Anyhow. it's a wide open
field. Perhaps before long our
legislators and other officials
will begin distinguishing at
least between such general re-
gions as near" outer" and
deep" space.

FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

REPEAT: Gen. George C.
Marshall has always disliked
having a fuss made over him.
Even as an active five-star
general he kept pomp and
ceremony at a minimum.
At one time the Virginia
Military Institute. of which he
is a graduate, commissioned a
sculptor to do a bust of him.
When it was finished a replica
was sent to his home.
Mrs. Marshall was enter
tanning a guest when 1t arrived.
The latter eyed it apprecia-
lively.
I'm sure the general will be
pleased with this" the guest
said. Il can just imagine what
he will say when he sees It,"
II can tell you exactly what
he will say" said Mrs. Marshall.
Hell take one look at it and
say. Who brought that imp"
A little while later Gen.
Marshall came home. He walked
into the room and spied the
bust. He took one look at it,
then said to his wife:

# Your Baby Swallows a Bobby Pin.
By pR. PETER }. sTEINcRoHN

Dear DIR. SteincrOhn: What
is the correct procedure when
q child swallows q bobby pin?
Should he be taken to q doc
tor? Or is II only necessary
to feed him "rOughage" to
help him pass It? Thank
you. Mrs. s. M.
To play safe. take your child
to doctor. Although it is true
that most foreign objects that
children swallow pass without
difficulty, there are times when
they become lodged at the out
let Of the stomach or some
where in the small bowel.
Drs. Herman I. Laff and r.
Parker Allen of Children's Hos
piStal. Denver, have written a
paper on the subject in the
Journal Of Pediatrics.
Here are some routine pro-
cedures that are effective in
solving the problem. For ex-
ample, if a child is suspected
Of having swallowed a foreign
body, furnish a similar object
to your doctor. He will test it
to determine if it might be re-
moved by magnet.
Your doctor will then care
fully exam mine your child's
mouth. nose and throat. Then
he will order X-rays of the
abdomen. Sometimes he will do
a microscopic. If nothing is
found, he will also take X-rays
of the chest and neck regions.
If an object is found in the
esophagus, it may be removed
either by forceps or by magnet.
If it is seen in the stomach and
is of the type that is usually
passed, your doctor will ask
you to strain each one Of the
child's stools until the foreign
object is recovered.
If a magnetic object found in
the stomach seems unlikely to
pass, then the specially trained
doctor will pass a magnet into
the stomach, make contact with

the help Of q Horoscope and
carefully withdraw it. If a long
bobby pin seems to be stuck this
may also be removed by magnet.
Therefore, If in doubt, be
sure to take your child for
examination.
Dear DR.. SteincrOhn: My
1O-year-old son always seems
to have a cold. He has been
this way since l can remem-

These allergic children are
usually worse in the morning

SECURITY FOR YOU
Proof of Age
Necessary
For Benefits
BY RAY HENRY
A s.o.fakAa u.a.. QtaA vxt.tA,

~~@NNN~@N~~
Your social security ONCE
isn't going to take your word
for your age when you apply for
retirement payments. Chances
are you're going to have to show
some written proof.
So, don't wait until it's time
to apply to start hunting for
the proof. You may find that
the hunt viii take a couple
months and that your payments
are being held up.
The most acceptable proof Of
your age, Of course. Is a birth
certificate.
But, the Social Security Of
fees know that many people
applying for payments these
days don't have official birth
certificates. During the 1880s
and 1905. birth records weren't
kept as carefully as they are
now.
Census Bureau May Help
AS a result. the Social Secu-
rity Administration accepts GER
tain other types of proof Of
age.
One of the most reliable
sources of proof is the records
Of the United States Bureau of
Census. The bureau gets its
information about the age of
today's older people from the
forms which were used by
census takers every ten years
since 1880. On these forms is
such information at the names
and ages Of the children in the
families of the late 1905.
When requested, the Census
Bureau will provide a transcript
showing what its records con-
tain. Rarely, If ever. does the
Social Security Administration
turn down such proof Of age.
All you have to do to get a
transcript Of what the bureau
records show about your age is
to write the Bureau Of Census,
Washington, d. c.; request form
10-611; I'LL out and return the
form with So or 81 fee.
If you want to get the trans
cript in a hurry you should pay
the 81 fee, since the additional
dollar generally assures that
the transcript will be returned
in about two weeks. A So fee
gets slower service usually four
to six weeks.
Types Of Documents
Here's a list Of other types Of
proof Of age which may be &C.
ceptable and where they might
be available:
Church record of birth or
baptism: Write to the church
or parish in which you were
baptized.
Foreign birth records: Write
directly to the local government
of your place Of birth. Some
help may also be given to you
by the consular Offices or en-
bassy representing the country
OF your birth in the United
States. All embassies are looted
in Washington, D. c..
Military records: Write to
your former branch Of service,
Washington, D. c. For ex-
ample: Department Of the
Army. Washington Is, D. C.
Naturalization records: Write
to the immigration and Ma
turalization Service, Washing
ton. D. c..
Passport records: Write to
Department of State, Passport
Section. Washington, D. c.
Hospital records: Get in touch
with the hospital in which you
were born or any other hos
pital which might have some
record of your age.

of Bible or other family birth

out resorting to such argu-
mentS as people judge you by
your friends" This argument
may have some truth, but with
many sturdy individualiSts it
would have little weight.
Probably the most potent
argument against Arnold's pres
ent recreational pursuits is that
he could be making much better
use of his free time.
In this case, as in the case
Of most sore spots, we favor
the positive instead of the
negative approac Arnold
should be encouraged to dig up
hobbies. activities. associations
that give him much more stimu-
lation and opportunity for
growth than he is now getting.
A boy with Arnold'S capabili-
ties should find himself rather
bored with the poolroom crowd.
It is possible that for a very
brief period a boy like Arnold
will find this poolroom crowd
colorful and interesting. His
father apparently takes this
view when he is so sure that
Arnold will soon "outgrow it."
Yet we think his father may be
able to help him outgrow It
more quickly by interesting
himself in the problem and
pointing the direction to live
lier masculine pursuits.
We do think that an intelli-
gent boy who is getting along
well should be free to choose
his associates and pastimes-
but a little subtle and positive
guidance from parents may en-
able him to choose better.

ADDED TOURIST ATTRACTION
SHOULD THINGS CONTINUE on the i

@ 1IIOQLD Ol CIlG up-SIdQG,
these Islands may yet come into their own economical
" and otherwise. Latest of the good things to be added
is the underwater trails planned as a part Of a visit to
the Virgin Islands National Park on st. John. These
underwater trails will reveal a wonderland Of coral
forests, giant sea fans, and multitudes Of unusual and
c%olorful reef fishes according to an announcement by
Governor John D. MerWin.
E IS NO question about it, these underwater
trails will attract many tourists-many who would
otherwise not even stop. It will also induce others to ex-
tend their stay, and that is a decided advantage in the
tourist business.
WE ARE ENJOYING the advantage Of a number
of Federal services which contribute significantly to the
total picture. Had not a part of st. John become a nation
al park such as results as this would not have occurred.
But even more directly, the opening Of these under
water trails is a by-product of a study being made Of
reef and inshore fish life surrounding st. John. The
United States Bureau Of Sport Fisheries, the National
Park Service of the Department Of Interior, and the
Marine Laboratory Of the University Of Miami are CO
operating in the project.
BUT AN IMPORTANT role is also being played by
jackson Hole Preserve, Inc. When it is recalled that this
is an agency Of the Rockefeller family, then the people
Of these Islands have added reason to be grateful be
cause it was that same family which made the ST. John
Virgin islands, National Park possible.
THESE UNDERWATER trails may develop into
something big and fine, and good for these Islands, and
the whole project is most welcome.
