New York, N. r., Doctors who are
specialists In women's ailments
have now discovered that several
days before a woman's period her
system often stores up an abnor-
NAL accumulation of water from
2 to 2 lbs. This causes body tissues
to swell and results in a sudden
gain of weight and abdominal
pufiness. It also causes breast
soreness, headache, depression,
nervous tension and irritabiity.
Having discovered this cause of
woman's suffering, science has de-
veloped astonishing medical help
with a new tablet called Trendaro.

Mr.. Moses Looks Us Over

Robert Moses, that redoubtable
champion Of common sense as well as
the modern highway, is endowed with
not only firm views on the anatomy
Of Washington, D. c., but a highly
articulate ability to express them. He
did so in a speech the other night in
Arlington, the text Of which is reprinted
elsewhere in this section today. We
think 1t is worth reading because it
makes timely point: That the re-
sponSible officials in Washington have
lost touch with the realities of their
transportation problem and that 1t is
both possible and essential to proceed
confidently with program of highways
that will meet the urgent needs of a
modern, changing urban community
before traffic and congestion over
whelm u.s."
Whether Mr.. Moses remarks will
help the city regain its perspective and
extricate itself from a morass of inde-
cision and confusion before we become
more overwhelmed than we are now
remains to be seen. His statements,
however, needed saying.

Hobbling the President

It is too bad that the Senate House
conference committee on the Trade Ex-
pansion Act has voted for what amounts
to form of economic sanctions against
Poland and Yugoslavia. This it has
done by retaining provision requiring
the President to withdraw "as soon as
practicable" the tariff concessions that
have been extended in the past to both
these countries.
AS result, since it is highly un-
likely that the conferees will meet again
and reverse themselves, the Poles and
the Yugoslavs will feel the pinch Of in
creased tariffs on their exports to us.
The effect Of this will be to make them
turn more to the Soviet bloc In an eff
fort to find alternative trading outlets.
And beyond that, Of course, the new con-
gressional restriction will work at cross
purposes with our Governments long
standing, and on the whole successful,
policy Of encouraging the Communist
Warsaw and Belgrade regimes, together
with the people Of the two countries, to
become as independent as possible in
their relations with the Kremlin.
So these trading sanctions can
hardly be regarded as an act of wisdom
by Congress, and the same holds true
for the se-approved provision, in the
foreign aid bill, making it mandatory
for the Government to deny to Poland
and Yugoslavia, along with all other
Communist countries, any economic or
military assistance, excepting surplus
food. The Senate Appropriations Com
mittee has sharply modified this sweep
ing prohibition by giving the President
discretionary authority to waive the ban
whenever he deems such action to be in
the best interests of the United States.
What :::isust be hoped for now is that the
House viii accept this version In confer
ence.
1t seems abundantly clear, in any
event, that Congress makes a mistake
whenever it ties the hands of the Presi-
dent in matters Of this SORT Certainly
flexibility is an instrument of prime i'm
portance in the day-to-day conduct OF.
foreign affairs; our country is poorly
served when the executive branch of
the Government is hobbled with restric-
tions like those relating to Poland and
Yugoslavia.

RELIGION of SecuIorism

Following the Supreme Courts
school prayer decision last June Justice
Tom Clark, in an unusual speech, told
a San Francisco audience that all the
Court had actually decided was that
government shall not take part in estab-
lisfment Of religion. In this respect his
Interpretation was more narrow than
those, for example, Of Justice Potter
Stewart, in dissent, and Justice Douglas,
concurring with the majority.
Whatever the precise meaning of
the decision may have been, counsel
for New York's state Educational De-
partment has added some interesting
details in ramification. In the opinion
Of counsel, no prayers Of any kind may
now be recited aloud in a New York
public school. Reading passages from
the Bible, for spiritual rather than in
structional purposes in the schools, is
unconstitutional. A pupils voluntary
recitation in classroom of a prayer
composed by the pupil is outlawed, for
such recitation would require the
teachers consent-aIld the teacher is
government employe. The State Edu-
cation Commission of New York has al
ready ruled against proposal, by
local school board, that pupils be per-
mitted to recite as prayer the conclud-
ing stanza of "The Star Spangled Ban
ner"
Whether Justice Clark and his
brethren Of the majority would agree
with such interpretations of their de-
cision is another question. But such
interpretations, by officials of public
school system directly affected by the
decision, lend strength to a conclusion
recently expressed by Cardinal Spell
man: But now there is abroad in our
land new spirit which seeks to change
this religious tradition of America /. +. :.
and to commit our Government to the
side Of irreligion. This is the establish
ment Of new religion of secularism.
This should be ruled unconstitutional"

Course on Cuba

There seems to be little
else the President can do
about the Cuban situation
than what he is now doing.
Russia has the United States
in the position Tin which we
often find ourselves) where
If we move, we are wrong,
and If we stand still, we
are more so wrong.
If the President sets a def
mite limit for Russia, she will
go the limit. Russia has done
this far too often. She is not
afraid of calling our bluff.
By passing the resolution
OF cautious and moderate
language, the Senate gives
the President the ability to
swing which ever way tn e
wind blows. He needs this
type OF authority. We must
not back ourselves into more
corners. The usual way out
is to fight.
Some Americans talk too
much about matters of which
they know very little. Instead
of criticism, why not adopt
the "wait-and-see" attitude?
With our checks-and-bal-
ances type Of Government,
the President will necessarily
be brought into line If he
swings too far one way or
the other.

by their substance, into its

and sacrificial hands to its

summation the central tower

That intrepid band Of re-
ligious pioneers, led by their

ruthless necessity of decision

The MiIIs Of the Gods

Use OF troops to enforce the DEGREES
Of the courts in Mississippi and to gain
admittance to the university of the
courageous James Meredith would rep
resent a defeat rather than victory in
a Just cause. One may be sure that the
President and his Attorney General
brothers who share an extraordinary
responsibility y-are exploring every de-
vice to avoid that defeat.
One device is time, more time.
Mr.. Meredith's right to enter the uni
versity has been clearly established
although his formal enrolment has
been prevented A practical and a
serious question is whether he and an
uncounted number of others should be
deliberately exposed to the physical
dangers that would still remain as the
aftermath of matriculation enforced
at the point of bayonets. It would seem
that for the time being, at least, Mr..
Meredith has done his part.
A more purposeful effort by the
\ Government would be the apprehension
Apd delivery in court Of those who have
deNed its orders. A Federal Court has
granted the Governor and Lieutenant
Govefpor a few more days of grace to
purge themselves Of the contempt in
which they have been held. Their
failure to respond will make them, in
effect, fugitives from justice. 1t should
not require too long time to arrest
them. If there is further delay before
they are brought into court 1t would
not be the first time that Federal Of
ficers have encountered delay in the
apprehension Of those on the most
wanted list.
The important thing now is a
cooling-off period to permit the people
of Mississippi to recover from what
surely is temporary period of derange
ment. Less rather than more preSsures,
under a show of force, will assist that
process. For the end of this tragic
episode is inevitable, and any sane
citizen of Mississippi must know it. The
courts have been defied and those guilty
of such defiance will be punished. The
university win admit Meredith and
others who will follow him. Such results
may be more quickly accomplished by
use of troops. But speed is not always
the most important element of accom-
pliShment. Use Of troops under existing
circumstances, with the emotional fevers
now raging, would undo more than it
would mend.

Freedom of the Mails

The Senate has undertaken to erad-
icate, at least in part, an implication
that the American public is neither ma
ture nor intelligent enough to be en-
trusted with mail from behind the Iron
Curtain. This canard took legislative
form few months ago when the House,
by voice vote, adopted a postal bill
amendment, that would force the Post
Office to block all mail considered Com
muniSt propaganda.
To its credit, the Senate voted a
more liberal amendment in hope Of
repairing the damage inherent in the
House version. It does not go far enough
far enough being the kind of free
exchange now in effect-but it at least
does not put American citizens under
the thumb of postal censorship of their
mail.
Under terms Of the Senate compro-
mise the Post Office would halt mail
from Communist countries, but would
notify addresses it was theirs "on re-
quest" There would be no interception
Of sealed letters, or mail addressed to
government agencies, Libraries, univer-
stiles or scientific institutions. And
there would be free exchange of mail
with any Communist country that re-
ciprocated in kind.
Not only is the House embargo a
direct insult to the intelligence of our
citizens, it also invites retaliatory meas
ures by other countries. Far better than
ascomplete blackout will be the Senate
compromise which we hope the House
win accept.

FROM THE STAR FILES.
100 Years AGO

Newspaper editors of the
Civil War era were a blood
thirsty lot, slashing vigor-
ously and often recklessly
with pen as, they spurred on
the troops to show no quar-
ter to the enemy. Northern
and Southern journals also
taunted each other, and The
Star was not above this prac-
tice. After Gen. Lees Army
Of Northern Virginia had re-
treated back across the Po-
tomac, following bloody An
tietam, this paper, on Sep
tember 81, 1862, observed d
that a rude shock must have
been experienced in Rich
mond," where the press had
expected Lees lie gions to
march into the bowels Of
the North without impedi-
ment." Armed with a newly
arrived bundle of Virginia
newspapers printed prior to
Antietam, The Star quoted
the Richmond Dispatch as
saying of Lees men: ". We
hope the troops will turn the
whole country into a desert,
as the Yankees did the Pied
mont country of Virginia. Let
not a blade of grass or a
stalk of corn or a barrel of
flour, or a bushel of meal,
or a sack of salt. or a horse.
or a COW, or a hog, or a sheep
be left wherever they move
along. Let vengeance be tax
en- for all that has been done
until retribution itself shall
stand aghast. This is the
country of the smooth-spo-
ken, would-be gentleman Nc
Clellan. He has caused a loss
to us in Virginia of at least
10000 Negroes, the most val
liable property that a Vir-
ginian can own. They have
no Negroes in Pennsylvania.
Retaliation must therefore
fall upon something else. And
let it fall upon everything
that constitutes property. ="
Saying the Richmond Exam
iner had been even more ju-
bilant before Antietam, this
paper quoted the Examiners
edition of S epte m ber 10,
1852: ". The number of
troops composing our invad-
ing army is ample for all
purposes. Too great numbers
would only cucumber and
clog its movements. 1t has
now the advantage it had
not in Virginia of moving in
a country full of forage and
provisions. 1t reaches the en-
emy's country Just after har-
vest. and the harvest of 1862
has been abundant in the
North. The march will be

Call to Arms

] note with approval that
the House Armed Services
Committee, and in particular
Mr.. Vinson and Mr.. Bates,
demanded Of Secretary Of De-
fenSe Mcnamara an explana-
ton as to why the armed
forces should not be of suf-
ficient strength to cope with
cold war little crises" with
out calling up reservists.
While Congress cannot well
deny the Administration the
power to call reserves to meet
crises deemed to require such
action, it is refreshing to
learn that the practice is re-
cognized as improper. The
reserves are constituted in
accordance with the laws and
the membership was recruited
on the basis Of such laws.
Essentially these laws provide
for calling the reserves to ac-
tive duty in time Of war or
national emergency. To tear
these men away from their
schools, jobs or professions
because they are reserves is
to impose upon them obliga-
tions they did not assume
and is in fact a draft for
military duty Of q specific
group of men no more obli-
gated for this duty than any
other citizens.
Such q practice can only
result in wrecking the re-
serves as now constituted. To
justify the action because
some of the reserves are
given drill pay is cheap.
Who in his right mind would
submit himself to calls to ac-
tive duty to meet any and all,
real and imaginary, political
or otherwise, cold war crises
for a few paltry dollars? The
caliber of men who would are
not the caliber who should be
wanted in the reserves. If
standby forces are wanted or
needed for such purposes, a
new form of furloughed forces
should be established by law
and personnel for it be re-
cruited on the basis of such
law; moreover such forces
should be paid on the ba-
sis of being a part Of the
armed forces on furlough
= not on the basis of drill
pay which is no more than
proper compensation for the
time required to maintain
proficiency for service in time
of war or national emergency.
The Administration should
do as Congress suggests:
strengthen the armed forces
sufficiently to meet cold war
needs. At least a furlough
force should also be con-
sidered but in no case should
the existing reserve forces be
further damaged by impro-
per use.
