With the sobering realization that "a free press is the torch of world peace is far more than a trite phrase, the press of America will observe "National Newspaper Week" starting sion thousands of daily and nation may look back with ments in the grim wartime No other group of business or professional men has been asked to contribute more of their time, products and personal efforts to the Home Front than the publishers of newspapers. e e A ND the fact that the American free press, through the stress of the greatest of all wars, has with' stood subversive and open attack and operated utv der a voluntary code of censorship is, indeed, a singu lar triumph of our war experience. The job of newspapers has been to carefully guard information that might provide aid to the foe, to see that the public was not seduced by propaganda, to insist that battle losses and mistakes were not sugar-coated or withheld, to provide a ring-side seat at the far flung fronts for the American people at home. The strength of a free, well informed nation has been well demonstrated. We know now that trie supine Axis press, a rubber stamp for entrenched bureaucracy, was a factor in their final crushing defeat. MEWS is knowledge and knowledge makes free men. In the challenging years ahead it will be our job to spread the freedom of the press to the four corners of the globe, just as Peter Zenger's ideal of two and one-half centuries ago spread through this nation. Palmer Hoyt warned members of the Jackson County chamber of commerce herf recently that we are now citizens of the world and that "an unin formed world cannot be free, cannot endure." The atomic bomb has now made world peace a simple matter of self preservation for all nations. His new arrd sensible suggestion that financial aid should only be extended to those nations willing to accept a policy of free press and communications deserves 3ober consideration in Washington. It is the only way we can be sure that this nation will not actually subsidize another attack upon democracy. e e e e e FREEDOM of the press can also become an instru F ment of spreading democracy in conquered lands. Major Harold Noble, professor of history at the Uni versity of Oregon, pointed out in his current Satur day Evening Post article that "we cannot force men to change their convictions. Force has never changed convictions or faith in human history . . ." Men must be wisely led, not driven. . There is little doubt that most of the people of the world, enlightened through a free flow of world news, will eventually achieve the cherished goal of personal liberty. Thus, a free press can become the torch of world peace. 1 e e e e A ND so, upon the occasion of National Newspaper " Week in this year of victory, it is our plain duty to 'guard carefully one of our priceless heritages- freedom or the press ana use our moral leaaersnip today to spread it throughout the world. Let us not forget: "An uninformed world cannot be. free, can not endure." H.G. Your H salth and It's Care By OR. WILLIAM BRADY M.O.

WHAT 13 When I was, le'me see, about eight. 1 was picking hops one day toward the end of summer vacation ana 1 was attacked by a vicious c a t e r p i liar, right between t h e shoulder blades. I can't remember now w h e t h er the cnterpillnr was 8 or 10 inches long, but I re member vivid ly the itching 1 suffered tor a day or two. Calamine lotion con taining 1 phenol relieves such Itching. Then when I was 15 1 had my first encounter with Cimex lec tulariui. (You will find the low down on p. 7 of the booklet 'Un bidden Guests" mailed on re quest if you Inclose ten cents and stamped self addressed enve lope). I was spending a few days up the river and I was awakened in the night to find 1 had com pany. Now I found the peculiar thing about bedbug Itching Is that the itching is Just as evasive as the buss themselves. I mean, you feel it. but you can't locate It accurately, at least not In time to catch the pest red bellled. If you can find the bite, touching it with peroxide or with tincture of Iodine or even rubbing it with wet soap gives some relief. In my two years of Internship In a metropolitan hospital 1 saw a great deal of scabies (pro nounced skay-bi-ease) but ordi nary soap and water cleanliness protected me from catching It. Th "n in my first year of practice In the country a whole family consulted me they had suffered all winter with the itch and In some way I contracted the di sease, bu. this Itching was noth ing to write about and it cleared ' n 't Dr. Brady World Peace Monday. Upon this occa weekly newspapers of the pride upon their achieve days since Pearl Harbor, winning of the war on trie ITCHING? up in a day or so, as the old fushloned ("seven year") Itch should in most cases if early rec ognized and treated. A synthetic chemical, methyl amlnobenzoatc or orthoform, then recently introduced, gave a local anesthetic effect when dusted on painful ulcers or other skin irritations. I applied it in a dusting powder to a large vari cose ulcer. The patient was grateful for the prolonged com fort It gave, but I myself broke out In a general red rash a few hours after handling the stuff. At the time It did not occur to me that the orthodorm was to blame. Not until weeks later, when I applied orthoform as a dusting powder in a similar ease, and this time reacted with a furious erythema and swelling of face and hands particularly. Tho itching that attended the orthodorm reaction was pretty wicked, but everything gradu ally subsided and I never han dled orthoform again.
