THE COUNCILS VIEW
Clara took too much upon
herself in pushing her hus-
band into this enterprise. We
think q wife should give ad-
vice on business and job prob
lens occasionally, but the
flnal decision should be the
husbands. It is he VINO must

into an enterprise halfheart-
edly and on his wife's steam,

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
What to Do About Headaches?
By DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: What
is there to do about head
aches?-Mr. T., Washington.
NOW THERE'S a question
that backs me right into a
corner. I couldn't answer it
specifically if my life de-
pended upon it. But I'll try,
in a general way, Mr.. T., to
tell you something that may
help solve your problem.
OF course, the most i'm
portant thing is to find out
just what kind of headaches
you have. How long have
you had them? How often
do they recur? Is there a
history of headaches in your
immediate family? What
kind of person are YOU
easy-going or tense? How
about your job? How do you
and your wife get along?
A fair estimate is that at
least 10 per cent of Amer
leans suffer from chronic
headache-discomfort severe
enough to take them to their
doctors for investigation. At
least three out of every four
of us have to take an aspirin,
or something else, at least a
half-dozen times a year for
Q splitting headache"
If you suffer only from
these occasional headaches I
suppose there's no need to do
anything about them except
take a pill and wait until
they pass. But if you are in
capacitated by the chronic
variety, then it's time you
go to your doctor to find the
cause.
About rs per cent of all
headaches are due to tension
so we call them tension
headaches. In the other Is
per cent category are the
migraine headaches, sinus
headaches, high blood pres
sure headaches, and those
often associated with fever
and chronic disease.
For those of you who worry
about brain tumor every time
you get a headache, let me
say that the odds are against
it" Nevertheless, head
aches that persist should have
a complete study.)
If you have migraine-
one = sided headache that
persists for hours or days,
and is accompanied by
throbbing, nausea and vomit-
ing-chances are that there

DEAR ABBY: How come
there are all kinds Of laws
to protect such dirty. rotten
things as dogs? 1t looks to
me like dogs have more rights
than people.
Why is a dogs life worth
any more than a skunk's or
a VOLTS or a fox's? A dog
should be treated like any
other animal that does
damage and goes where It
doesn't belong. 7 think q
man should have the right to
protect his own property
against a dog if he has to
take down his gun and start
shooting.

DEAR ABBY: I've been
married for three months to
a man who can do everything
I can debut he can do it

He's a much better cook than
I am. He loves to wash and

is a history of it in your
family.
The basic treatment is
with a drug called ergotamine
tartrate. 1t acts by con-
stricting (narrowing) the
dilated blood vessels in the
brain, and thus ends the at
tack. In addition to taking
this drug under your doctors
supervision, it is advisable TO
rest quietly and put the brake
on the daily strains that may
have set of the attack in the
first place.
The same holds true for
managing tension headaches.
Try to find out what tensions
preceded the attack-and try
to prevent them in the future.
If an argument with your
wife seems to bring them on,
the answer is obvious. Like
wise, If you have been work
ing without letup, reading
hour after hour, try to inter-
sperse your work with periods
of relaxation.
THERE is A TYPE of
headache called "histamine
headache" which your doctor
will treat with specific medi-
cines.
It is a common belief that
sinus trouble and eyeStrain
are a common cause of head
ache. Such is not the case.
But I'd suggest that you'd
better check out the possibil-
ity of glaucoma if you have
suddenly begun to have head
aches that persist and are
accompanied by poor vision
and other eye symptoms.

Three Soviet Ships
Ready to Recover
Pacific Missiles

HONOLULU, July 4 (AP).-
Three Soviet ships, equipped to
track and recover the nose
cones in RuSsia's forthcoming
missile shots, steamed about
900 miles southwest of Hawaii
today.
The Russians claim the new
tests-scheduled between July
S and July 30-will be longer
and more accurate than the two
in the same territory last jan
uary.
United States military sources
said yesterday that the three
"Sidir" class vessels are about
40 nautical miles apart, appar-
emily practicing to recover the
missile nose cone. The ships
are from a naval base at Petro-
pavlovsk on the Kamchatka
Peninsula. They left about two
weeks ago for the target area
and reached it a week ago.
United States Navy and Air
Force planes have been patrol
ling the impact area.
The Soviets claim one of their
rockets in the last tests came
within IA miles of the target
after a 7,762-mile flight.

There are three airports at

The operational totals of the

What Did Truman Accomplish?

made by leading Republicans
that the Democrats are
about to have a "payola"
convention. In all fairness,
it may be asked, what nation
al convention isn't as pre-
arranged" as any candidate
and his hackers can make
it? All conventions are made
up of pledged delegations.
and there's no sin in lining
up a majority in advance.
What was the inspiration
of the Truman barrage? He
is, to be sure, close to House
Speaker Sam Rayburn, who
is managing Senator john
sons candidacy behind the
scenes. The former President
was the logical man to get
the necessary publicity to
halt, if possible, the Kennedy
movement.
The incident indicates to
diSinterested observers that
Senator Kennedy is far in the
lead and that nobody else
has a chance unless the Mas
sachusettS Senator is halted
on the first or second ballot.
Lots of "prearranging" is be-
ing done day and night by
various leaders in the Demo-
cratic Party, including Mr..
Truman, to try to get the
nomination for some one
other than Kennedy. It's
odd to see a veteran politi-
clan complaining about the
"prearranging" of convention
voting.
At this writing, Senator
Kennedy seems likely to be
nominated, but this cores
pondent is aware that some
times the unexpected hap
pens. only last Saturday,
with two out in the last half
of the ninth inning and the
score 6 to 4 against them,
the Yankees got a home run
and four other successive hits
and won the game, 7 to 6.
So surprises can happen, es-
pecially when the pros" in
the political game grapple
with the newcomers, who may
prove less skilled than they
have appeared to be in the
subtle techniques of conven-
tion strategy.

While public attention is
fixed upon our domestic po-
litical drama, the infection in
Cuba is reaching the point
of intolerable danger to the
free world in this hemisphere.
This is not the judgment
of mere hysterical profession
al anti Communists" who
see Moscow agents every
where. 1t is the coolly con-
sidered conviction of elevated
and truly liberal political
leaders of South America
with whom this correspon-
dent has talked.
These leaders have told our
State Department plainly
that Fidel Castro has per-
mitted Cuba to become moth
ing less than a bridgehead
for Soviet communism with
in 100 miles of the United
States. They have told the
State Department plainly
that Castro is spending vast
sumS-whether his own or
Russian money they do not
Say-all through Latin Amer
lea to destroy WaShington's
leadership in this hemis-
phere.
And they have suggested to
the State Department, po-
litely, that the United
States Government has so
failed to explain the realities
to the American people that
only a tiny minority have any
notion whatever of the facts
of life in Cuba.
These urgent representa-
tions explain, in part, why
the State Department has
now at last publicly admitted
that its soft line toward Cas-
tro is being abandoned. A
more compelling reason for
the change, however, has
been Congress itself.
Congress has been many
months ahead of the diplo-
mats in recognizing the true
nature of the Castro menace.
This has been thanks almost
wholly to a single determined
Senator, George Smathers of
Florida. The administration,
for Illustration, has now ac-
cepted what it so long re-
sisted-the principle of re-
ducing the large sugar sub
sidy we grant to Cuba.

Now it can be said that some

These questions outline
the dilemma caused by the

in the event of war so as to
escape the dangers of fixed
bases. But the United States
Air Force repeatedly still sup
ports the base idea.
The PolariS missile is mo-
bile. Fueled with a solid pro-
pellant, it requires no count
down. Polaris-armed subma-
rines. prowling the oceans of
the world, obviously can be a
very formidable deterrent.
Mr., JurgenSen thinks diff
ferences between Red China
and the Soviets are very real
and significant. But he ex-
poets no open break unless
the Chinese force it, which
now seems most unlikely. But
this makes more imperative
some sort of atomic control
and. paradoxically, a build
up of strength. since the Chi
neSe can, and will, have such
weapons within five years or
so. 1t is certainly true that
world political control is pre-
cariouSly balanced.
One does not find here any
great amount of anti-Ameri-
can feeling. The Paris edition
of the Herald Tribune re-
ports, for example, that a
good two-thirds of it's letters
from average French readers
are strongly pro American.
There is worry that the
United States seems to lack
purpose and there is grave
concern that for at least six
months we will have no effec-
tive policy, with the Presi-
dent downgraded as a world
leader and the election occu-
pying the summer and au-
tumn.
But life goes on, and one
is thankful for small things,
for the POlariS missile apd
the submarine to carry it, for
example.
