As de from the Texas Bap tist resolution, the' chief execu tive has plenty of cause for tak ing a drink of whiskey.

JERUSALEM QUIET Jerusalem, Nov. 17 (U.P) Quiet prevailed in Tell-Aviv to day after Jewish riota In protest of Britain's Jewlah Palestine which cost the Uvea of tlx persona. Boston, Mass., Nov. 11: This is Armistice Day and a more dismal one CLIMATICALLY could not be imagined! In fact It is Boston at its worst a steady cold drizzle through a sIoddv fog and dark as the inside of your hat. So bad in fact, there is considerable doubt about General Eisenhower keeping his date with Boston to be the guest of honor at today a celebration of the end of World War I. The last report is the General's plane has passed over Bermuda in a clear sky, from Frankfort, Germany. But there Is no clear sky within a hundred miles of here. (Imagine that flying from Germany to Boston, Mass., In 24 hours to lead an Armistice parade!) But not such a dismal day In other directions at least not to this department. For at long last a world leader is talking SENSE about the atomic bomb! That leader is Prime Minister Attlee of Great Britain. It has been a long wait, but there is the answer to all this jingle-Jangle about atomic power and the next war. It is as plain as the nose on your face. . Place the secret of the atomic bomb in the hand of a revised and reinforced UNITED NATIONS or at least the Big Fly. with this firm and unequivocal understanding that: In return for this generosity and evidence of good faith on the part of the United States and Great Britain, ALL members of the League agree to pool any future scientific discoveries that may be made and may be useful in war and all members, particularly Soviet Russia, agree to work with and cooperate closely with Eng land and the U. S. A. in the organization of the United Nations. There you arel That would be doing precisely what this department has urged ever since the atomic bomb was announced. Hand the secret over to the world the United Nations com prise all the Important nations of the world outside of the Axis which now can t be trusted anyway but not free gratis BAR GAIN with it, and demand certain things In return. Don't try to hold the bomb a secret, waiting until the secret has been discovered by other nations as eventually would be certain and then having no bargaining power whatever, and thereby entering armament competition In the atomic realm spelling our own destruction and that of the modern worldl Yes, there Is the answer. There is the course to pursue, and that or some program closely resembling It is the ONLY course to pursue. By such action the discovery of atomic power instead of being a curse, will be one of the supreme blessings of this day and age. for it will at once revitalize and Implement the United Nations pact, make it an effective force for world peace instead of a mere pious gesture, and end war at least war on any large scale the only way It can be ended, by placing such overwhelming power oeruna peace, mat, no war-ime nation, or group of nations, would ever consider breaking it. We grant that Is easier to say than do. The- war-like SPIRIT must end before ALL danger can be removed. But there Is the possible road to peace and the only road to peace, any other road can only lead to a third world war In the realm of atomic power and devastating world destruction. And don't overlook the importance of that phrase: . "A revised and reinforced United Nations." For that would mean a United Nations without the one-nation veto league action founded not on a totalitarian but a DEMO CRATIC basis. . If President Truman accepts this program he will have to swallow his pride of opinion and completely reverse himself. Here Is hoping and praying he will show himself a big enough man, to do Just THAT! R.W.R. L T TO BUT By Richard Applegata United Press Sports Writer Los Angeles, Nov. 17 (U.R) When Joe Louis defends his heavyweight boxing champion ship against Billy Conn in June, he hopes it will be some place other than in New York, he said today. The champion, Just out of the army and busy getting back In shape, said he doesn't like New York's system of point scoring, and he apparently feels that he Is going to have trouble enough licking the more youthful Conn without being hampered by the complicated Eagan system in use in New York. Los Angeles, Nov. 17 U.R) Capt, James J. Braddock, who lost the world's heavyweight boxing title to Joe Louis In 1037, returned today from 11 months' overseas service con vinced that Louis, In turn, will lose the crown to Billy Conn in 1046. "I pick Billy to lick Louis. He's younger and should be in his prime right now. Also I think Billy's got a better chance to get in shape." Braddock said The 40-year-old army trans portation corps officer came back from Hawaii and Saipan heavier than when he wrested the world's championship from Max Baer on June 13, 1933. Braddock tips the scales at 233 pounds now. NAME HIGGS HEAD Portland, Ore., Nov. 17 OJ.PJ County Judge N. B. Higgs of Burns today was the new presi dent of the Association of Ore gon counties.

CARELESS AND ILL CONSIDERED REMARKS Most patients who consult a specialist in heart and arterial diseases are suffering from "either an exaggerated or a wholly un necessary anx- iety about their hearts, arising from suggestion and not based on reason, most of the sugges tions following the careless or ill considered Dr. Brady remarks of doctor", according to Oille (Canad. M. A. J. 45, '41). Careless or ill considered re marks of doctors that is put ting it mildly. Is it careless or ill considered when a doctor listens to the heart and then mumbles some thing about a "murmur" and leaves the victim, to struggle with that on his own? I, Bull (in the China Shop) Brady, do not call that careless or 111 considered. It is a deliber ate attempt to impress the pa tient if not to throw a scare Into him, and at the same time cover up the incompetence of the doctor. A real doctor would either say nothing at all about such a "murmur" or else tell the patient or the patient's parent or friend what he thinks ails the patient or perhaps that he is unable to determine precisely what the murmur signifies, if anything, without further obser vation and examinations. In a timely contribution to JAMA Sep. 29, '45, Drs. Alfred Auerback and P. A. Gliebe, San Francisco, describe typical cases of what they call Iatrogenic heart disease. Now, iatros, says Webster, is Greek for doctor or medicine so Iatrogenic means produced by the doctor or by medicine. ( Having another doctor listen to an interesting though benign (insignificant murmur or a sug- j gestion for increased rest or I even a vague recommendation to "take it easy" implies some positive finding to these sug gestible individuals, the San Francisco physicians remind us. And they add that to send ! patient on his way with the statement that nerves are re sponsible for his difficulties is to leave them prey to many wor ries and unwholesome thoughts. A few simple sentences by the doctor may save months and years of anguish. To lighten the discussion a bit let us turn for a moment to the bowling green, where, to Judge from the sarcastic allusions in some of your letters. I carry on most of my practice. Never mind that side of it now. But let me mention that several of my playmates who formerly thrived at it now walk on eggs and only occasionally venture to roll a bowl over the green because some doctor has advised them to "take It easy". I do not say the doctor's advice is wrong. I say only that if I had angina pectoris, coronary occlusion, thrombosis, valvular leakage, or other serious heart disease and could still navigate under my own power, I'd keep right on bowling and enjoying myself. Yes, In- such circumstances I might pop off right In the mid dle of a good game. On the other hand I might drop off right in the middle of a doze in my easy chair, too. So what's the dif? I ask the question not lust rhetorically. If any medi cal colleague has an answer I'll be grateful for it. ; QUESTIONS & ANSWERS , roollih Habit I fuesa 1 Just don't understand your I language.
