Sherman vs. MacArthur When most people think of General Sherman they think of "war is hell" Georgia" and let it go at that. We happen to have a different idea for we were brought up. on General Sherman so to speak, one of our grandfathers having been an ardent hero-worshipper of the famous Union General. There was a large framed picture of the General above the fireplace and "Grandpappy" liked to relate the wonderful exploits and remarks of the "greatest man in the country," although, it was his brother, not he himself, who marched with the General through Georgia. AT the time of these conversations, believe it or not, General Sherman was not only still living, but recently had been advanced as a candidate for the Presidency at least the Republicans had tried in every way to get him for their candidate but the staunch old Indian fighter had refused. This was the first, and only mistake the General ever made, in Grandfather's opinion, and it irked him terribly, for next to horse-stealing the cardinal sin, in his lexicon of morality, was to be a member of the DEMOCRATIC party! . And it came out during this public discussion of Sherman for President that the hero of the Battle of Atlanta had always been a staunch Democrat and a great friend of President Buchanan up to the out break of the Civil War! Grandpappy never believed this, but a perusal of a recent biography of General Sherman shows the main facts to be true. fJOWEVER, the point we wish to make at the present time, refers to a certain incident related in this biography, rather than to those conversations of over 50 years ago. And this incident convinces this department that Grandfather was dead right Gen eral Sherman was not only a great General but a great MAN, and it is to be hoped some of the American generals in this war will show the good judgment, good sense and strong character he did. .,, XE refer particularly to General MacArthur who has been put forward for the Republican nomi nation next year by the Chicago Tribune and is being given a steady publicity build-up by Senator Vanden berg of Michigan and other reliable wheel-horses of the Old Guard Republican machine. As has been previously stated in this column such action we regard as a great disservice to General MacArthur who is doing an excellent job in the South Pacific, and where, until victory is won, he should remain. Moreover, we can't believe the gen eral himself, would consider accepting such a propo sition or entering politics of any sort as long as the war is on, just because a group of politicians wish to capitalize politically on his popularity and military prowess. , But the General's silence on the proposal, as the campaign gains in force does cause, among: his real friends we believe, a certain uneasiness and appre- nension. AT any rate this is what General William Tecumseh Chamvion AiA mJ m'm.'l.. ,'.,.n,tnnna n.tr a decade after the Civil War he was one of the most popular men in the country, headed by Jamea G. Blaine Republican nominee, Blaine sent him this message: "You can no more refuse this nomination than you could have refused to obey a military order when you were a lieu tenant." Sherman came right back as follows: "I shall resist such action to the utmost even If it gives offense to the convention which construes Itself to express the will of the people. I would account myself a fool, a madman and an ass to take any other action." Nevertheless when the Republican convention met, the presidential material available to the party proved to be so disappointing, the Republican dele gates could not be restrained, and with the firm con viction the General would not have the nerve to re fuse such an honor if the nomination were really offered him, the following message was sent: "General Sherman, your name is the only one we can agree upon; you will have to put aside your personal preju 1 dices and accept the presidency." Whereupon, it is related the old campaigner, with out even taking his cigar from his mouth, or changing his calm but determined expression dictated the fol lowing reply: "I will not accept If nominated and will not serve If elected!" That was THAT! Not because General Sherman lacked in anv wav a sense of patriotism or public responsibility, but be cause ne was convinced he ment or training for such reason it was offered him party to casn in on a prestige and popularity that was his, not theirs and that had been gained because of a success NOT in public life but on the field of battle. Therefore only disaster for the party and for himself would result if he were weak enough and vain enough to Believe the flattery offered and swallow the poliU cal bait.

EXERCISE CURES HERNIA Talking about the spontaneous cure of hernia the other day, for spontaneous cure occurs in a good many cases In Infan cy and early childhood pro vided the her nia Is properly supported, and occasionally in youth or adult life, we speci fied the four ways in which hernia can be cured, namely, vt. diooj spontaneous cure, cure by suitable support or truss, cure by plastic or recon structive surgery and cure by in jection treatment. Then, come to think of It, there Is still another way to cure her nia, namely, by systematic exer cise, that is, by the regular, methodical performance of exer cises expressly designed to im prove the general muscle tone and particularly the tone of muscles in the area where the bulging occurs. A correspondent told us here recently of apparent cure of her nia In several members of his family by wearing truss for from a few months to a year. Numer ous readers wrote to inquire what kind of truss. The corre spondent did not mention any particular kind of truss. That Is not important. The important thing Is that the truss be selected by your, own physician and wom as the physician directs and un der the physician's regular in spection. This is important whether you take exercise treat ment, surgical treatment, injec tion treatment or no treatment at all. Everything said so far about cure of hernia applies to reduc ible hernia only. That is, the bulging or protrusion must dis appear entirely when the patient lies on back with hips on higher level than shoulders, knees flexed, and. If necessary, the her nia gently manipulated with fin gers. In some instances hernia is not so reducible, and, If it is not, then there is practically no OBITUARY GRACE MARIE OWSRS Grace Marit Owert.

It is a serious mistake to apply any kind of truss or support to irreducible hernia, without the advice 01 your own physician. Nowhere in any standard surg ical work that I know of is there any specific recognition of or rec ommendation of special exer cises in preparation for opera tion or for speeding convales cence and rehabilitation after ab dominal or pelvic operations. This, I believe, is an unfortunate shortcoming in American surg ery and gynecology. It merits further discussion, here, not in private. QUESTIONS ANSWZU OsrUe Pleaas give your opinion in regard to the uh of garllo or the principle extracted from It for high blood pros our. I hare hard throbbing In the region of heart and eu feel it often In my bead, too. (ft. W.) AnswerThe garllo Idea la Just some charlatan's Invention. Oarllo has no effect on blood pressure. The symp toms you mention do not signify high blood pressure. It would be folly to attempt to diagnose or treat your own trouDle, wbatever It may be. X assure you, "high blood pressure" la never In Itself what alls the patient; the blood pressure may be higher than normal In various diseases or circumstances. My advice is that you leave blood prearure entirely to your physician's oonsiaerauon. The less you tninx you know about It the better off you will be. Wakeful Boy X am 14 this month.

REPLIES TO PATTON CRITIC To the editor. In reference to the letter in your edition of uecember 27th I would like to question the veracity of the statement made about General Patton. If, and it is very doubtful, there Is more to the Incident than was released to the press, and ha did know about it, I don't think he should be the one to say anything about it As for General Patton being a coward, I prefer to let his records be the judge of that, since it isn't a policy ot our government to sponsor false build-ups for anyone, under any consideration, which he seem ingly lnfisrs. I would like to suggest that the gentleman retire to his arm. chair generalship on the quiet Fireside Front (incognito) and let people with a little broader mind and more capable qualities run the big show.

Get Peaetra Kese Drape URGES FEDERAL AID TO STATES FOR WAIN Florida Educator Says Grants Only Way to Avoid Government Control. By Barbara Landstreet (United Press Correspondent) Tallahassee. Fla. (U.FD Fed eral control of education can be avoided only by establishment of a system of direct federal aids with funds apportioned to states objectively and administered under their constitutions. Di rector E. L. Morphet, of the state department of education, said. The director pointed out that federal support Is imperative because small states, which statistics show supply a substan tial part of the citizenship found In larger, wealthier states, cannot nrovide adequate educa tional opportunities for their children. "Therefore, ' he said, "the en tire nation is handicapped by the extent to which the poorer state is unable to maintain satis factory schools." Morphet said that people have refused to establish the direct system on assumption that federal control might be avoided by denying the issue completely. However, he added, recent trends and developments prove the assumption to be "danger ously" wrong. 'Comparatively, few people realize that for the past several years we have been moving rapidly toward federal control of schools because we do not have a comprehensive system of direct federal aid." According to the director, the federal government in the future cannot ignore the educa tional needs of the nation or re frain from any effort to supply funds to meet the situation. 'But as long as funds for schools are made available indi rectly through non-educational agencies, such as FWA, NYA and FWA, we must continue to expect increasing federal con trol of the school program." He suggested that the correct system of federal aid for schools should meet the following re quirements: 1 Funds should be appor tioned to states on basis of an objective formula written into law and not subject to interpre tation or modification by any federal agency. 2 Funds should be made available to states to be used In Improving educational systems in accordance with provisions of law. 4 3 Each state should be held fully responsible for proper ex penditure of funds, with the government having the right to audit state accounts. 4 States should be .required to meet certain objective ad ministrative standards Incorpor ated in the law. "If all the millions of dollars spent on educational functions by non-educational agencies of the federal government could have been made available through a satisfactory system of federal aids, our states' sys tems of education would today have been far stronger; objec tionable controls would have been avoided; and the people would be in far better position to resist successfully furtner tendencies toward undesirable controls by federal agencies," Morphet said.
