CM DAYS "dispatches tell us
that the gold coffin of Tut-Ankh-Amen
has been removed
from Cairo (Egypt) to a place of
safety. (Incidentally, if you were
looking for a safe place outside
the United States of America,
where would you go?)
That's something to reflect on.
In The

The "Saddest Words"
MO, we can't share the enthusiasm in certain quar-
' ters over the President's speech and the expendi
ture of over a billion dollars for 50,000 fighting
planes, tanks, big guns and the rest of the war para
phernalia !
The whole business leaves us cold.
Not that such an expenditure isn't needed. With
the situation what it is in Europe, the United States
must prepare for ANY eventuality !
But we are terribly afraid this action has come
too late !
THEREFORE, when added to a natural hatred of
war and all its works, however necessary it may
be ; we have a deep-seated fear that before this billion
dollar war chest can be made effective, the conflict
across the seas will be settled. We may be pardoned
therefore, perhaps, for not feeling disposed to wave
the editorial chapeaux, and dance a jig on Haymarket
Square.
The whole affair is too depressing, too poig
nantly tragic.
COR as we look at it, this ghastly "Blitzkrieg"
against England and France is going to be decided
within a couple of months, perhaps within a couple
of weeks, or days!
Either the allies are going to be crushed, or Hitler
is. In either case, what the administration does or
doesn't do with this billion dollars is not going to
be a factor in it, one way or the other.
"TOO LATE, TOO LATE!"
That is the pathetic refrain that eliminates what
ever joy or enthusiasm there might have been in this
militant action, for this department
Necessary? Yes. As inescapable as death or taxes. But how
many sane people ever welcomed either with enthu
siasm?
fXF course we may be mistaken. (We sometimes
have been!) The present struggle may resolve
itself into a stalemate, as was true in 1914. In which
case the present action by this country might prove
decisive.
But it certainly doesn't look that way at the pres
ent writing. No, we fear as far as THE DECISION IN
EUROPE IS CONCERNED, which is, after all, the
vital thing, this war chest speech will go down in his
tory under the heading of a perfectly proper gesture,
but a futile one.
IF it could have been done a year ago! Then what a
vital difference it might have made.
But it wasn't. And if it had been, how many peo
ple in this country would have sanctioned it!
We might as well face the facts, unpleasant as
they are. When it comes to Blitzkriegs, Democracy
functions under a TERRIFIC handicap !

Benito Mussolini !
As we recall the famous Italian classic, there was
no cubicle sufficiently agonizing to give this double
crossing buzzard his just desserts. In a modem edi
tion, we are quite sure, the author would have to re
serve one hell-hole with all the modern appliances of
torture for II Duce, and we are not at all sure,
it wouldn't be several notches below that de
signed for Der Reichsfuehrer!
J70R this much can be said for the latter, he isn't
afraid to fight. He, at least, hasn't the spirit of the
jackal or the vulture, hovering about, unwilling to
risk a scratch or a feather, until certain his victim has
received a mortal hurt. (Then how valiantly he will
rush in and demand his ahare of the corpse.)
In fact, we can recall nothing in modern history
much more degrading and reprehensible than the
spectacle of 11 Duce, pacing up and down the side
lines, shaking his fist and cursing at the hard pressed
British lion, in there fighting for his life, but taking
great care to do nothing that might involve him in the
battle until he knows he will be safe.
IF principles of right and justice prevailed, Benito
would go in, thinking the fight really over, with the
allies all washed up, and then when completely in
volved, the tide would turn, and he and Hitler would
be chased off the surface of the earth, and their
murderous ideologies with them.
But in a world where every day might seems to be
getting the better of right, this, we fear, is too much
to expect

SYMPOSIUM ON POTASSIUM CHLORIDE
I am sorry to report, writes
Genevieve B. that I tried potas
sium chloride without benefit
for one week. Miss B. goes
to the trouble
of sending a
postcard, b u t
doesn't, tell us
anything after
all. She does
n't say what
she tried it for
nor how much
she took, nor
how often.
B. T. B on
the other
hand, drops a
card telling
that he found my "Relief for
Allergy (monograph available
on request If you Inclose a
stamped envelope bearing your
address) very effective. He had
not been able to eat eggs or
anything containing eggs for a
long time without getting giant
hives, but since taking soluble
potassium chloride (he doesn't
say how much nor for how
long) he can eat anything with
out discomfort.
After suffering for three
years with severe eczema, Mrs.
J. M. W. tried potassium chlo
ride soluble, as I suggested in
the monograph mentioned. The
irritation was much relieved by
the third day, and now the
eczema Is all healed except two
little red spots. The treatment
also cleared up hay fever long
before the end of the season
last year.
'James B. reports that last
season while suffering from hay
fever he tried my suggestion
of potassium chloride. He had
It made up in capsules, five
grain strength, and found it
very effective. But he had
been compelled to stop taking
It, because after each capsule
he had terrific cramps in the
stomach. Like many others.
James B. did not follow my
advice at all. I warned against
taking tablets, capsules, pills or
powder, and specifically direct
ed that the dose be dissolved
In a glassful of water which
is nearly tasteless, to avoid Just
the irritation James B. suffer

peatedly warned that ordinary
potassium chloride tablets are
almost insoluble, but both five
grain and ten-grain tablets spe
cifically prepared for this pur
pose are available, and these
are labeled Soluble Potassium
Chloride.
Mrs. B. S. has taken potas
sium chloride five days and no
tices much relief of violent
sneezing spells and difficult
breathing at night.

CAPITAL
PARADE
By JOSEPH ALSOP and
ROBERT KINTNEP
Released by th North
American Newspaper
Alliance, Inc.
Washington, May 18. In
these tragic and terrible days,
it clears the mind to recall an
old story. Late last fall William
C. Bullitt returned from France
to report to the president, and
found this country in the happy-go-lucky
mood In which respon
sible men could complain of
"this phoney war." Bullitt was
not one of the small group who,
like Charles A. Lindbergh, ac
curately foresaw the future. But
he was at least vaguely aware
of what might come, and he
was deeply angered by the
mood he found.
"Tli United Statm." h ssld bit

of England before Munich."

for four years, after ten days
of potassium chloride treatment.
Mrs. H. C. W. says her hus
band had sinus trouble which
developed from a "cold." After
the t laird or fourth tablet his
sinus trouble cleared up com
pletely. The 14-year-cla daughter of
Mrs. A. W. M. found rettef of
asthma and hay fever from
which she has suffered from
in fancy, after three or four
doses of potassium chloride
soluble. She was free from
hay fever all last summer, for
the first time in her life.
A. M. began taking potassium
chloride at Christmas time and
has had almost no distress from
asthma since. He had under
gone much special treatment
but with little benefit.
One thing about this medi
cine it is practically as harm
less to try as would be so much
sodium chloride (common table
salt). In the monograph "Re
lief for Allergy" I explain to
the best of my knowledge why
it brings relief to so many suf
ferers from allergy.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Canker Sores
What causes canker sores In the
mouth and how can they be pre
vented or relieved? (Mrs. B. C.)
Ans. I do not know. I have a
theory that nutritional deficiency
may b a cause especially Insuffi
cient Intake of the essential vitamins.
And local Injury may be a direct
cause as by rough use of tooth
brush, or Injury by hard or sharp
food, bone, etc. Best treatment I
know Is dally touching of each sore
with Iodine end glycerin, hslf and
hslf, and constant use of warm
solution boric acid aa mouthwash,
especially before and after eating.
Tesspoonful boric acid In pint
boiled water.
Disinfection
What Is th best way to disinfect
bed clothing, sheets, pillows, after
a contagious disease? (Mrs. B. E. 8.)
Ans Boiling. Ordinary laundering
and Ironing disinfects sny such
clothing or bed clothes. Soap and
water ta ample no noisome or poi
sonous chemicals need be used.
Dandruff
Pleas publish again th recipe
you gave a year or so ago for dand

gave great satisfaction but we can't

Until this week, there hsve been
plenty of men In high office In

position throughout th country,
who preferred hoping for the beet
to making a realistic assessment of
the facta. The 1st Senator William

Cordeli Hull last summer thst he

th gesture of the English leaders
who tossed Into their wsstebaskeu

Mn like Thomas . Dewer, who
continued to say until catastrophe
as treading on our heels thst w
ought to worry only about rtomcwtlc
problems, resembled th English and

hoping for th bets when the war
