Big Review Is Indicated Here!

DEAR ABBY: My boy friend
and I are making plans to
marry. Do you think it is
proper for him to ask how
much money I have in the
bank? I did ask him what
his financial situation was,
and he claims he has q right
to know mine, too. He says
we should combine all our
money into one account. I
worked hard for % years II
am 40 and he is AZ and I
feel that what I have saved
should not be divulged. If it
were needed ! would be glad
to share it, but he is the type
who would buy q new car
every year, as he spends
money faster than he makes
it. Am I wrong in my think
ing?

Of Oklahoma and the drawl of
Texas and the diffident slur
of New England. They live in
little whitewaShed houses
with q splash Of pink or baby
blue, and they water their
lawns in the cool Of dusk and
spray the bedroom after dark
to get the tropical bugs who
are waiting to get them. It
never occurs to the people
that the bugs were here first.
1t is possible now to bowl
a strike down the middle of
the lobby Of the Fontaine-

one; Collins avenue is almost
empty Of traffic; there is
parking space all around
Flagler street. A policeman
waits in an alley, clocking
a car going by. It is another
squad car.
There are q few spare beds
in the hospitals. The boats
trolling for game fish on the
edge Of the Gulf Stream can
be counted on the fingers. At
midnight, even the strip

quiet.
The tourists, believe me,

Your boy friend appears

BY DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

Do you get a cold every year

let it go? Do you have a
chronic breaking out Of your
skin, call it eczema and let it
60 at that? Have you been
suffering from Indigestion
lately and can't understand
why? If so, better give a
thought to allergy. Thousands
Of US suffer needlesSly be-
cause we never think Of the
possibility.
I RECALL Q friend and
colleague who Is q we'll
known diagnoStician. He has
. genius for ferreting out
obscure diseases and passing
good judgment on the man
agement Of the common ones.
One August day we were
having lunch. He looked
miserable and unhappy. His
eyes and nose were red and
inflamed. He had a cough
that was not far from Q
wheeze.
81 can't understand it." he
said. For the past half
dozen years, every summer
vacation Of mine has been
ruined by q horrible cold.
II this one runs true to form,
1t will hold on until the frost
comes. I've never had so
many colds in my life"
I looked at him in disbelief.
Was it possible that this bril-
liant doctor had no suspicion
that he might be suffering
from allergy? So I asked him.
You never saw such an ex-
plosive reaction. He jumped
out Of his chair and said,
"Of course! Hay fever! How
can it be possible I never
thought of it,"
About II million Americans
suffer from some type Of
allergy. 1t is prevalent at
every age!S For example, the
baby in its crib may have a
skin eruption due to milk:
a teen-ager may have a
severe allergic penicillin re-
action: a middle-aged man
may have an upset stomach
because he is allergic to
chocolate: and an elderly
woman may be wheeling with
asthma. AS you probably
know, allergy is simply a
senSitivity which some people

develop to substances which
are ordinarily harmless to
most other people. Those sub
stances are called allergens.
How do they reach the
body2 They can be inhaled;
they can be swallowed; they
can be contacted, such as
poison ivy. and they can be
injected.
HERE ARE SOME Of the
more common sources Of
allergic diseases:
Bacterial allergy: You may
be sensitive to bacteria that
you harbor in your own
body especially those In
your nose, throat, tonsils and
bronchial tubes. ears and
sinuSeS.
Inhalants: Pollens from
weeds, trees, grasses and
plants. dust, mold spores,
animal danders, hair lotions,
feathers, cosmetics, insecti-
eide sprays, chemicals and
tobaccos.
Foods: Chocolate, fruits,
nuts, fish. eggs, milk, wheat,
beans, etc.
Contacts: Insecticides,
drugs, resins, cosmetics, dyes,
rubber, fabrics, metals. plas-
tics and foliage.
WELL" you may say. Sup
pose the diagnosis has been
made2 Suppose I know it's an
allergy. What next?"
Then it's entirely up to a
doctor thoroughly acquainted
with allergy. He will try to
find the offenders so you can
learn to stay away from
them. II that's not entirely
possible, then he will desen-
sitize you. Allergy is one con-
dition that demands about
cooperation between you and
your doctor If you expect to
have good results.

enthusiastic about the tremendous feat per-

he further decreed that the absence of stu

DIR. Permenter should realize by now that
he pulled a real bOObOO. Parents wrote notes

come as a shock for parents to realize that
the acting superintendent of schools listed
the absences as U-I Indifference of parents).
The parents in this county are anything but
Indifferent, especially for such an historic
event.
Every school student must have felt a
real thrill to see this symbol of Americas
greatness And we suspect it will take more
than the cold water dashed on the situation
by John Permenter to keep them from being
proud to hear a good red-blooded American
stand up before man and God and say: Il
am glad to see that pride in our country and
its accomplishments is not a thing of the

Ches+y

The recent book reviews carry report
Of new book entitled Marine by Burke Davis,
a biography of a Marine known as Chesty
Fuller, or more properly, 1t. General Lewis
BuI7Well Fuller, USMC The book reviewers
generally speak of the great respect admira-
ton, and affection with which Marines think
of General Fuller, but it isn't only the Ma
rines who hold Chesty Fuller in such high
regard.
General Puller's nickname, "Chesty,"
could not be more appropriate. Many mems
inability to see their belt buckle Is the result
of bulging paunch. but Chesty couldn't see
his because his chest got in the way In.
congruous as the comparison may be, con.
sidering General PulIer's fighting reputation,
his chest resembled that Of a pOuter.pigeOn.
In his uniform with his chest jutting out like
the solid wall of an impregnable fortress,
Chesty Puller was the picture of a fighting
Marine. This was no accident for Chesty
has fought as a Marine from the early part
Of this century in Haiti and Nicaragua to
the terrible winter ordeal Of the Korean War,
when the Marines, surrounded by Red Chinese
armies, fought their way in 80 degree below
zero weather from the ChOsin Reservoir to
the sea. He holds five Navy Crosses, awarded
for extraordinary herOism i'm warfare against
an armed enemy of the United States, and is
the most decorated man in the history of
the Marine Corps.
Some % years ago General Fuller was a
First Lieutenant of the Marines in command
of the Marine Detachment on board the USS.
Augusta on the China station Lieutenant
Fuller was also in command of the landing
force, which consisted of the Marine Detach-
ment and group of Navy men organized
for fighting ashore as infantry The writer
was one of the Navy men attached to the
landing force of the Augusta
One fall, probably September, 1884 the
landing force was ordered to the Army rifle
range near Chinwangtao, North China, for
two weeks Of training in infantry tactics. We
were housed in rather primitive, unheated
barracks equipped with cold running water.
After dusty day on the range shower was

a necessity and in the cool evenings of the
early fall, it was also test of will power and
stamina, for North China water can undoubt-
edly fall to lower temperatures without turn
ing TO ice than anywhere on the globe or so
it seemed to men used to comforts of the
ship.
For some reason, perhaps because Of a
cook inexperienced in the use of primitive
kitchen equipment, the food served was not
up to its usual quality. Lieutenant Fuller
was detained aboard the ship on a court mar
tial case and arrived at the rifle-range on the
second day just as the noon meal was being
served. AS memory serves, this lunch was a
particularly unappetizing and skimpy meal.
Chesty Fuller walked over to the mess line.
took look at the food being dished up, got
Tayful for himself and tried it. His reac-
tlon was immediate. He turned to the ships
cook and said, "Pack your gear for return to
the ship" They left Immediately.
Some hours later, for ii was quite a long
trip out to the ship Chesty Fuller returned
with another ships cook and boat load of
food supplies. The meals, from that moment
on, were ample and tasty. The effect of this
change of diet on the men of the landing
force was Immediately apparent. They en-
tered into the training period with the zest
and good will of children on picnic.
This little incident in the peace-time life
oil Chesty Fuller cannot compare with the
brave deeds that men who fought with him
can relate, but it is an indication of the char
acter of the man. Chesty Fuller was always
personally concerned with the welfare of the
men under his command One wonders how
many times down through his years of serv-
ice has General Fuller by such attention to
duty, turned a group of men into an effec.
tive fighting unit
1t was not only the men of the landing
force who held Chesty Fuller in such high re-
gard on board the cruiser Augusta, but the
entire crew of roughly 800 men, So when
you Marines start paying tribute to Chesty
Puller, save a little time for some old China.

The Choice Is Yours

The voter is lucky person He has the great
privilege of putting into public office and women,
with the best qualifications available. But he cannot
do this by waiting to be told who the best candi-
dates. He must find out for himself And this isn't
easy.
More than 200 persons have filed for public office
in the state, district and county
Some of these persons highly qualified for the
public positions they seek. Others totally unquali-
fled And still others, unfortunately will use political
campaigns for purposeto seek publicity and per-
sonal aggrandizement.
It would be ideal if only the finest possible per-
sons entered the political field But this isn't fact of
life. However, there number of local Democrats
and Republicans who have the necessary knowledge,
temperament ability and integrity to serve the public
in the very best interests of all Of us.
Personal contact, conversations with precinct
chairman, and party leaders and opinions in some
newspapers can be Of help But the final choice is up
to the individual voter
It is unfortunate that the candidates themselves
do not always feel free to speak out plainly and truth
fully exactly how they feel about the important is
sues. 1t is too bad that we have been led to believe
about half of what candidate says should be dis
counted political babble Let's hope that this years
crop OF candidates have the and the good sense

against that in which they do not believe in

part of so many thousands of people, got
that same feeling" That was Col John Glenn
talking to Congress and the people of the
world.
It seems to us that Col Glenn has Der.

the United States Not only was his orbital
flight a magnificent feat in the field of outer
space but his conduct during the many cere.
monies honoring him must have given all
of the people watching him a boost for the
decent way of life.
For some reason there has been grow
ing feeling among many of us that it is
smart to show off a little. Some of the
young people think they must be a bit vulgar
in order to be noticed. Or they believe it is
smart to make themselves up to look "out of
this world" Good manners, so many of the
young people - and older ones too seem
to believe, is for the birds.
People everywhere, especially the young
ones, must have been thrilled to see a real

painted faces or loud and cute quips Every
move each member of the Glenn family made
and every word they spoke was perfect. They
accepted their role in the best possible good
grace and they thrilled everyone.
Col John Glenn and his family have
shown in the most positive way that there
are many things much more worthwhile than

Nearly three months ago, the Park and Planning
Commission released its preliminary master plan for
suburban Maryland.
During a four-month session, commission plan
undertook to explain their farreaching proposals
to the than 100 citizens and county officials in
attendance
Shortly afterwards the commission repeated the
procedure with County Council members who had
been unable to attend the first meeting
All of this indicates a sincere desire on the part
of the planning agency to keep the Council informed
and to prevent any misunderstanding between the
two groups.
Yet despite all this, no official word has come
from the county heads concerning their reaction to the
plans recommendations
The commission has readily conceded that these
suggestions bold and unprecedented They const-
tIte radical departure from previous guides for the
comtys growth. But this Is all the reason to de-
mand some positive expression of opinion from the
elected heads of our county.
1t is the County Council which must adopt or re-
Ject the zOning classification advanced by the COM
mission to help make the plan reality
It is the County Council which must decide
whether to prohibit lines in sections eamarked
in the plan for large lot development.
1t is the County which must work for or against
the assessment suggested by the commission to help
preserve open space.
The Park and Planning Commission is response
bic for recommending the direction in which the cou-
ty should grow But the County Council is responsible
for the policies which will determine whether those
recommendations will assume the strength and va
idity without which they merely empty words and
meaningless maps.
This is why the Council should state now whether
tsbelieves the commission is indicating the right di
recton for the countys future expansion; and wheth
er it feels the plan can be implemented.
Any further delay could create the suspicion that
political considerations involved. Certainly these
cannot be permitted to influence matter so vital to
the welfare of all the citizens.
