Editorial Correspondence San Francisco, Dec. 8: Well, Tehran has come over the air at This is Monday morning the immediate reception here is what might be termed, enthusiastic, Already the members of the exalted order of allied commen tators are pouring out their pontifical radio pronouncements, none as yet agreeing in detail, but all asserting In one way or another that today is as epocal and history ttnaklng as tomorrow was two years ago. i - But Jn a very different way. anniversary of Pearl Harbor, the rnnouncement marks (we are Axis, and the overwhelming triumph of world democracy! Welt, we hope the boys are can see no basis for this burst of For in precisely WHAT changed by these two meetings at Tehran? As far as the news thus far way, to wit: Instead of reiterating the UNCONDITIONAL SUR RENDER TERMS o( the Hull-Eden meeting, and every other meet ing between Messrs. Roosevelt and Churchill since Pearl Harbor, there is now (if the reports over the air are correct) a pledge to the German people of their independence and national integrity, if they will throw over Hitler and the Nazi dictatorship pronto, and sue for terms of peace. Yes, there is the only news because It Is so vital in itself, as because it represents a complete reversal from the announced agreement reached, onlya few weeks ago in Moscow. ' Then it will be recalled, Stalin was reported to have agreed to the Churchill-Roosevelt formula of UNCONDITIONAL SUR RENDER, and thus removed all fear of a separate Russian German peace. Now unconditional surrender is forgotten and an effort made to drive a wedge between Hitler and the German pedple with presumably a peace of negotiation. If this is true and until we agreement In the evening papers, outstanding victory for Comrade For this was Stalin s idea at Germany committee negotiations fiom Moscow. Not force an unconditional sarily crush the German army, and particularly the working class of Germany, to overthrow their totalitarian tyranny, liquidate Hitler and all the Nazi works, and then join Russia in an anti-Fascist European peace. It was these separate peace Moscow at the time (and everyone knows that If Stalin had not approved the move it would never have been made) that aroused such acute fear in London and Washington that history might re peat itself Stalin might make a separate peace with Hitler to end the war as he made a separate non-aggression pact with Hitler to start it. In fact it was undoubtedly Moscow meeting and now these two with Roosevelt and Churchill Instead of their secretaries of state in attendance a determined Anglo-Britain effort to reach' a complete understanding between the United Nations at least the Big Three the United States, Britain and Russia. Such a complete understanding was announced with a great fanfare after the Moscow meeting. Now it is again announced with a salute of 21 guns, but there is one striking difference Eden, Hull and Molotoff agreed on UNCONDITIONAL SUR RENDER; Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin, agree on an effort at least to bring about a revolution within Germany, first and decide upon the exact terms of a negotiated peace later. At least this is the situation, from the radio reports up to NOON ON DECEMBER 6th, 1943. It is hard to believe the unconditional surrender policy, iterated and reiterated so often' since the announcement of the Atlantic charter, has actually been thrown overboard, and yet that Is what the news thus far is, as it has come in over the hotel room radio. Perhaps by evening the situation will be clearer. Other reports may prove to be premature. , . a . . Later: And after lunch at ire two Solaris in San Francisco, this one and the one next to the St. Francis. They were much the same years ago, but not today bath good but the Maiden Lane is the original and much the better. It reminds one more of the pre-flre San Francisco than any other restaurant it has the old charm and informality and food savor.

It only shows how reliable some of these radio prophets are and the less famous they are the more they claim omniscience. ' For we can find nothing In certainly nothing in the text of the official announcement from Tehran. Of all the glittering generalities that ever glittered with out any light and not much heat, this official declaration Is cer tainly the Than-whlchest-of-the-whatestl , Surely there, must be more to If not, then here is the most this war or any other.

M.D. Readers should address Inquiries tot Dr. William Brady. 265 El Camiao. Beverly Hills, Calif. , TRUSS RARELY Of 96,886 patients with hernia treated by trusses at the London Truss society, 4,387 (4Vi) were cured, according to a report by Spanton quot ed in Watson's Hernia (author itative text book). Inguinal hernia (rupture in groin) in in fants or young children is cur ed by truss alone in most instances. The percentage of cures of hernia Dr Brady In adults is ex tremely low, probably not more than four cases out of a thou sand. Correspondent recently tol-J us here his nephew who had her nia from infancy had operation (unsuccessful) and. then wore a truss for several years and this apparently cured the hernia. Three other members of the family had had hernia, all ap parently cured after wearing truss lor lew months. or year. and in from 7 to 13 years these three have had no recurrence of hernia. Correspondent himself was partially disabled by hernia six years ago, wore truss for a year, then discarded it and has had no further trouble. I printed the letter because of the extra ordinary tendency to hernia in a family, and also to remind her nia sufferers that spontaneous cure does sometimes occur if the hernia is properly, retained or prevented from bulgirig through the abdominal wall by a suitable support or truss. The corre spondent did not mention what make or kind of truss he or any other member of the family wore, and it doesn't matter. The important point is that both the fitting and the wearing of such a support or truss is a matter for the individual physician to attend to, and it should never be left to the judgment or advice of an instrument maker or any one else than the physician. The ap plication and wearing of a truss for hernia involves just as sari ous risks of possible harm and chances of impairing or prevent ing complete recovery or cure as does the treatment of fracture in gram even In the face of com ing defeat. They all know very' well that Mr. Roosevelt will veto the bill that- it cannot be passed over a veto, and that Mr. Roosevelt will get his subsidies anyway . by plucking the money from the bottomless bag of revolving funds under the custody of the New Deal's extra ' curriculcr banker, Jesse Jones. The subsidy opposition , fears that If congress approves the art, ministration plan and even if not Mr. Roosevelt may expand it into a new spending program as a' means of re-election. They suspect it could be developed to mote and more commodities, thereby pleasing the particular parties Involved, at the expense of the nameless, unorganized and remote mass of people. To do so, he would have to justify it on better grounds than he has so far offered. In this column, last Friday. the peculiar Canol oil deal was ascribed to the Standard Oil Company of Indiana. As every news reader knows or should the Standard Oil Company of California was involved. -No harm, therefore, was done, out the Indiana company wanted a correction, and here it is.

Although hernia In adults Is only rarely cured by truss alone, there Is no question that a con siderable share of all Inguinal hernias in young adults are cur able by (a) carefully fitted truss that is, fitted by and worn un der the supervision of the patient's- own physician and (b) tegular exercises to develop and strengthen the natural muscular support: Such exercises are to be done while the patient sup ports the hernia carefully with middle fingers of one hand. The smaller and more recent the her nial protrusion the better, the chance of cure by exercise. Fur ther particulars are - given in pamphlet on "Hernia" available on request. .

Organised Selfishness To the editor: Life Is funny. As my Dutch uncle used to say: "The longer what a man lives the more he finds py-golly out." , Does it not make, you smile to hear Henry Wallace rant on our. freedom being destroyed bv lobbying agents of special priv ilege groups? How long ago was it when he was engaged in spe cially looking after the inter ests of such a group, not stopping at murder of pigs, cattle, cotton and wheat, in their supposed in terests. The political wisdom of the New Deal was founded on the plan of organizing all such groups and delivering into their hands the industry of the rich est nation on earth, In exchange for votes, including a hand picked supreme court to render a decision that no Individual had any rights organized selfishness 3 11 (Aem TelaMot.)

The plan has worked so well and organized selfishness has be come so powerful they now can defy their creators. That Is what Henry deplores. It started with the promise of economy; how about It now? Instead of the forgotten man, we now have the rights of the individual completely ignored. That is what our fathers bled and died for. All scourges of humanity are comparatively short-llvedi His tory is now recording the revo lution of changing our petty lo calized, organized selfishness and strife into a humanized global cooperation, recognizing the rights of the individual under God, regardless of color, clime or location on earth, with no special privilege recognized as "Sqns of Heaven," "New Order." "New Deal" or what have you? Then, and not until then, can we have permanent peace. . - . I. C. J. (Name on file.) Gleanings of the once-a-week trip to town: First, there was the woman. I've been meeting hei almost weekly for the past 20 years. Never hurried, always smiling, I forget she's a lawyer. Today I said so, thinking to com pliment her. She said, perplex edly, that such was the case with most of her friends, and I gathered she rather deplored this lack of legal presence. I could tell her what's the matter. She should replace her look of friendly trust in hu manity with one of dour sus picion; should subdue her frivo lous hair; iron out her dimples, stride instead of trip; appear preoccupied instead of so smil ingly aware of all that goes on about her. Oh, I could put the earmarks of her profession on her, I tell youl Many greeted me with, "Your new hat has style, Olive." At first I preened my ego and puffed out still further my al ready puffed-out chest. Then came a thought: they'd just men tioned the hat; like when people complimented Frank on the new cab he once installed on his aged and battle-scarred truck. So I deflated a. bit; at least enough to relieve the strain on my dress seams. Later, I watched with house wifely horror the girl who brought the elevator operator a cup of coffee. For she placed this on a little stool In the eleva tor car. I could see coffee spray ing every whichway at the first lurch of the elevator. Yet so deftly did the operator handle it, there was scarcely a ripple on the surface of the coffee as we started upward. VI- hear the calves ate your chrysanthenfums," said a friend.
