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

Such a complete understanding was announced with a great

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

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.

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

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.
