EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE . Tuesday Jul? i Your Health and Its Care BY DR. WILLIAM BRADY. M. D. Readen ihould eddren Inquitiei toi Dr. William Brady 265 CI Camlno. Beverly Hills. Calif. LESS HANDICAP ON DEPENDABLE ANTISEPTIC AND DISINFECTANT Every little while some one asks how to disinfect or sterilize a clinical l n er mometer. E x c e pt in cases where the prysician instructs you to take the temperature I believe a clin t h e r mometer has no place in a well reg ulated house hold, and so far as I have '-ft i ml lowed by surgeons is thorough hand scrubbing with plain soap arid water and then the wearing of rubber gloves--the rubber glove surface can be sterilized by heat. The skin of the opera tion area is scrubbed with plain soap and water, dried, and painted once only with tincture of iodine. That brings us face to face with a question which I, for one, would prefer to evade a litle longer. But if you insist I suppose I must make up my mind about it. Please let me have a few more days to mull it over and then I'll give my y Reduced Federal Control and No Income Taxes Pro posed by Beardsley Ruml. L)t BriidT ' . .. - I .nt observed xne use m vn , , regardlng the use of under order of the Physician serves only to Rive you some thing to worry about. The best way to disinfect a clinical thermometer so that it will be safe for any one to use Is, in my opinion, simple wash ing with cool, not hot, soapy water. Best way to disinfect or ster ilize a needle, pin, knift-point or other instrument you may use to dig out a sliver or open a blister or a pimple is by boil ing it for five minutes. Or hold It in gas or alcohol flame for a second or two. Or if these means are inconvenient, just plunge it into a cake of wet soap and go ahead with the surgery. Whenever you want to steril ise cloths for any purpose, even for use in or about the field of an operation, ordinary launder ing and ironing will serve the purpose as well as the most mi-, a ,lne mlly doctor, but jut in same. o make Dim enow us II oe differs from your teachings. (O. N. D.) Answer Don't tell me thero are any old fossils still breathing who conjure up deleterious effects ''some day" from going without stockliiKS or any other clothing one prefere to discard. The Green Book My husband Is a neryous wreck and I'd like to huve your tract on nervousness and food. (Mrs. P. W. B.) Answer Send twenty-five cent and stamped self-addressed envelope for the green book "Nerves and Nu trition." (Copyright. 1044, John P. Dllle Co.) iodine as a first aid disinfectant or antiseptic. QUESTIONS A ANSWOHS Youth I am lfi1 years of age and my menstruation Is not as regular as It should be. My skin Is excessively oily and has blackheads and pimples most of the time, and large pores. (M. j.) Answer Bund a stumped envelope bearing your address. Ask for pam phlet "Hygiene for Girls and Health for women." If you would like also a pamphlet on "Acne Oily Skin, Blackheads and Pimples," Ipclose ten cents for H. Itarely Made It Have long enjoyed your artlclee, not alone for the good medical advice, but especially lur the never-falling humor. My little niece heard me tell ing some friends about your caution to the girl who asked about the ef fect of going without stockings to be careful not to get you in wrong with Grandma and she discarded her stockings next dayl Both mother and grandmother, who had frowned on bare legs, then gave In laughingly to the view of "Or Doc Brady." We have posing steam pressure appara tus. A suitable sterile compress or pad to apply to a wound either for pressure to stop bleeding or as a protective dressing, Is a freshly laundered and ironed handkerchief or any similar piece of cloth. When we t speak of a sterile surface we ' menn that the surface is free from disease-causing germs. It is practically impossible to sterilize the skin of the hands or the skin of the area of an operation. The technique fol- F. D. n VIOLATED BAN BUT HE ENJOYS RIGHT New York, July 25. U.R President Roosevelt's congratu latory telegram to Vice-Presidential Nominee Harry S. Tru man was passed by a Western Union operator without- being referred to a supervisor, but the message "probably was proper ly accepted and delivered," the telegraph company said today, since "if the president has au thority to authorize the Issuance of the ban, he has authority to modify, alter or rescind It." The Western Union Telegraph company, a spokesman for which on Saturday quoted a section of the communications act of 1034 as preventing It from making a statement on the delivery of the message, issued this statement through J. L. Egan, vice-president in charge of public rela tions, today: From White House "President Roosevelt's mes sage congratulating Senator Truman on his nomination for the vice-presidency was sent from the White House on July 21 by a government operator over a private wire to the West ern Union operating room in Washington, D. C, where it was received by a Western Union op erator who sent it on its way without bringing It to the atten tion of nnyono else. No supervi sory employe knew anything about it. 'Our counsel advises, how ever, that in any event the fol lowing message probably was properly accepted and delivered for the following reasons: "The ban of the board of war com.minicatinns against tele grams of felicitation or con gratulation was Issued under the authority of executive order No. 81M9 of March 6, 1942. In other words, under authority delegat ed to the board by the president. "If the president had author ity to authorize the issuance of the him, he has authority to modify, alter or rescind it. When he sent his message to Senator Truman presumably It constitut ed an exception to the ban and, consequently, our people were correct in accepting It." roommateTharged in nurse's poison death Springfield, 111., July 2S (U.PJ A coroner's Jury today return cd a verdict that Miss lielen llo- vey, 24, a supervising nurse, died from rat poison administered in a peanut butter sandwich and named her 25-ycor-old room mate, Mrs. Robert bteicer, a nurse's aide, as having poisoned the peanut butter with murder ous intent." The Jury ordered Mrs. Stei- ccr held for the grand Jury which convenes August 10. Vengeful Germans Burn And Pillage Beautiful Village London, July 25 (U.R) Ger mans burned and pillaged the beautiful Geneva lakeside vil lage of St. Gingolph on the French-Swiss border and ex ecuted dozens of tho Inhabitants In reprisal for Maquis attacks on tho German garrison there, Swiss dispatches to London re ported today. "Practically the whole town was a mass of smoking ruins this morning," the Swiss reports said, adding that the Maquis or French partisan forces occupied the town for a time Saturday until they were driven out by superior German forces. The Germans than set about pillag ing me lown and setting fire to its buildings, the reports said. The Swiss reports told of the population fleeing in terror as Germon soldiers fired upon them, and of men being dragged from their homes to bo execut ed against walls In the presence of their families. Many such scenes were enacted in sight of swiss soldiers, officers, and civilians, who looked on help lessly ou yards from the fron tier the reports so id.

Riverside Ph. SM Washington, July 25 4U.R) A post-war economy based on private enterprise but with re duced governmental controls was proposed today by the National Planning association in a report also urging abolition of federal income taxes on corporations. The NPA, a private organiza tion, said its aim was a national Income of $140,000,000,000 pro duced -by 55,000,000 persons working 40 hours a week. The report was prepared by Beards ley Ruml, sponsor of the pay-as-you-go plan and treasurer of R. H. Macy and Co., New York; H. Christian, Sonne, president of Amslnck, Sonne Sc Co., and Leon Henderson, former price admin istrator, now with the Research Institute of America. Government Referee In order to avoid mass unem ployment and the uncertain fluc tuations of competition, the re port sold, the government must coordinate the economy through a well-planned budget and "act as Impartial referee in effecting fiscal policies that will mesh with private undertakings." It said that abolition of cor porate income taxes would per mit an expansion of activity which would lower the cost of goods and services and pave the way for wage increases. As a substitute for the corporate tax It recommended a franchise tax of five per cent to represent "the value of doing business In cor porate form." The report recommended as chief source of revenue for the government a graduated Individ ual Income tax with rate reduc tions as soon as possible. It also recommended: No Sales Tax ' Excises on alcohol, tobacco and gasoline, but no general sales tax. Public works projects to help staniuze the business cycle. Creation of two additional congressional committees to study fiscal and monetary policy, and establishment of a new ex ecutive agency similar to the Of fice of War Mobilization with broad power In Issuing fiscal and tax directives. Modification of the securities and exchange act to encourage small investments by reducing what It termed a disproportion ate cost of issue. Establishment of privately owned finance corporations to grant loans to business and in dustry. Decreased tariffs and freer trade, "since an Increase In Im ports should Improve the general domestic standard of life." Increased lending abroad to help stabilize war-torn countries so that they may begin soon to produce commodities needed by the United States. On the Radio Chains STATIONS!
