An attorney representing the

But the judge yesterday up

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 81 (AP).-
The morning Globe-Democrat
today editorially Endorsed Vice
President Nixon for President.
The newspaper is indepen-
dent-Republican. In 1856, it
indorsed President Eisenhower.
In a front-page editorial, the
Globe-D Democrat said it be-
lieved that Republican Nixon
was more experienced in both
foreign and domestic matters
than his Democratic opponent,
Senator Kennedy.
And, the Globe-Democrat
charged, Senator Kennedy's
chief foreign policy advisers,
Chester Bowles and Adlai Ste
venSon. have been fuzzy

DEAR ABBY
A Case of Character and Bias
BY ABIGAIL VAN BUREN,

The fact that he will not see
you without your parents
permission proves he has
character. Ask your parents
again; perhaps they'll realize
they are wrong and recon-
slider.
DEAR ABBY: I am fed up
with invitations to baby
showers, wedding showers
and all the other kinds of
showers for people I wouldn't
know if I saw them on a bus.
This has happened to me
several times, and I am sick
and tired of being told to buy
a present for someone who
wouldn't recognize me on the
street. I am not poor, but I'm
not rich, either. I enjoy buy
ing gifts for people I know,
but I am fed up on
BEING TAKEN
The solution is simple.
When you are invited to a
shower that gives you the
impression that you are be-
ing sOaked-turn 1t down.

DEAR ABBY: About three
weeks ago I met a sailor at a
dance. I am Is and Jim is 10.
We liked each other right
away and he asked If he
could see me again. I asked
my mother and she said I
couldn't go out with any
sailors. I told her 1 was 60
ing to a girl friends house
and I went with him any
way. When I told Jim I lied
to go with him he was furi-
Gus and made me promise I'd
never do it again. He asked
If he could meet my parents
and show them he was re-
spectacle. When I asked
them if they would please
meet Jim they said no. Abby,
he's the incest boy I've ever
known, but he refuses to see
me without my parents per-
mission. And they refuse to
meet him. What should I do?
HEART-BROKEN
You must accept the de-
ciSi0n Of your parents even
though they are very unfair
to condemn this young man
and to refuse to meet him.

Mormon Book Collectors Item

Mormon historical books
from around the middle of
the last century are quite
often scarce and sought by
collectors, as many readers
know.
The reason, of course, is
that the Mormon movement
to the West was intimately
connected with the whole
drama Of the expanding
frontier, which is a favored
field for collectors.
One of the very interesting
items is Sergt. Daniel Tyler's
eyewitness account of the
breaking Of the first wagon
road from Santa Fe, N. Mex,
to San Diego, Calf. 1t was
published in Salt Lake City
in 1882, although the title
page says 1881. The title in
full follows:

complain of pain in the foot
and toes even though they
don't walk. 1t occurs when in
bed at night. They have to
get up and massage the foot
to lessen the ache.
Your doctor makes the di-
agnosis by checking on your
leg arteries by various tests
including use of X-rays and
an oscillometer "a cuff which
wraps around your leg like
a blood pressure cuff
Often the leg involved is
cold to the touch. If you lift
it in the air for a while it
becomes white. Then when
you bring it down over the
side of the bed it becomes
purplish red.
The treatment consists in
trying to control the under
lying disease: Atherosclero-
sis. Treating diabetes. if
present; keeping on a low
choleSterol diet; taking
medicine like Priscoline to
dilate the blood vessels and
keeping the feet and legs
scrupulously clean to pre-
vent infection and ulcers are
some forms of treatment. In
some stubborn cases, opera
ton has been helpful.
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I be-
lieve few doctors realize how
utterly devastating a disease
hiatus hernia can be since it
is not a killer. I have heard
that nothing can be done for
it except operation.
I am over 10 and this con-
dition was just discovered.

ton. Sincerely. Mrs. c.. Cali

it is necessarily the best
thing for this child to be
sent back to the foster home.
But one thing is certain.
Some solution must be found
to his serious unhappiness.
A 7-year-old who consistent
ly steals is a very sad young
man and his future prospects
aren't very good.
Possibly Mabel was be-
coming a little jealous of the
close ties between the boy
and his foster parents and
reasoned, that unless he
came to live with with her
he would never grow to love
her as his mother.
Mabel should recognize
that it is no disgrace or re .
Election on her that her child
has reacted badly to his new
home. The boy has had a
severe emotional shock, and
it is impossible under the
present conditions for Mabel
to remedy this.
The social agency involved
is Mabel's and the boys best
friend in this case. But help
can't be gotten unless Mabel
is honest about her prob
lem.

"I have been having pain
in my legs when l walk"
writes Mr.. D., Chicago. MY
doctor calls it intermittent
claudication. Sounds pretty
complicated to me-"
WHEN YOU WALK, your
leg muscles require more
blood and oxygen. However,
diseased leg arteries can't
furnish blood. It's the same
when your heart beats fast.
1t requires more nourish-
ment. When the coronary
arteries are not up to par,
the heart doesn't get it. 1t
cries out in pain. Such pa
tients have to stop because
of their chest pain. We call
them angina patients. After
resting, the chest pain dis
appears. and they can walk
again.
Now, the same thing hap
pens in intermittent claudi-
cation. The leg muscles COM
plain, too. when their arte-
ries are bad. You have to
come to a stop until the pain
in the legs disappears. Then
you slowly move on again.
What underlies all this
trouble? Usually the cause is
arteriosclerosis. Fatty plaques
pile up inside the main arte-
ries of the leg Gas in the
coronary arteries) and suffi-
cient blood can't get through.
The first symptoms are
numbneSs and tingling in
the calves of the legs Cor
in one leg). The pain on
walking appears soon after.
Some patients have this
complaint in addition to
having trouble with their
coronary arteries. In others,
the heart is all right. In some
very severe cases. there are
ulcers of the leg due to poor
circulation.

The modern Man of Dis

There's something invigor-

Although the forbidding

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

OPPORTUNITY: Lewis j.
Selznick, a pioneer Of the
movie industry, was a man
who knew how to take ad-
vantage of an opportunity. .
During his early days in
Hollywood Selznick took a
minor job at Universal Pic
lures. The two top men at
the studio were Carl Laemmle
and a man named Powers.
Each was seeking control of
the company. So bitter was
their struggle that they did
not even speak to each other.
This was a situation tailor
made for Selznick. After a
few days on the job he moved
into an empty office and had
a sign painted on the door,
reading:
Lewis j. Selznick, General
Manager"
He had scarcely installed
himself when Laemmle barged
in.
who made you genera,
manager?" he demanded to
know.
You'll have to speak to
Mr.. Powers about that" said.
Selznick, knowing full well
that he wouldn't.
A little later Powers burst
into the office to ask the
same question. Selznick re-
ferred him to Laemmle. In
the weeks that followed
Selznick acted his self-as-
sumed role to the hilt, issuing
orders right and left. Then
Laemmle gained control and
tossed him out. BY this time,
however, Selznick was a name
in the industry and he had no
difficulty landing a top Job
at another studio.
