He said "new men art masters of the Kremlin" with' "more powerful forces behind them" and that recent developments in international affairs mean dis armament and relaxation of Cold War tension are "within our reach and may soon be with in our grasp." 'Halfwitted Piebalds' The old master of rough and tumble politics told his Wood ford constituency Monday night that the Laborites were a "bunch of halfwitted - . . piebalds" try ing to give the Communists the idea that "Britain is on the run." He gave the desultory cam paign something it had not had before issues. And he sched uled another speech for tonight at Bedford in support of his son-in-1 a w, Christopher Soames, when he is expected to blast La . bor even harder. Labor Leader Clement Attlee also speaks today, twice in Edin burgh and once in Falkirk, and Hike Expected! To Act odd Postal; Pay HiEte In Bay or Two' may use the opportunity to reply to Churchill's charges that he cannot hold his own party to gether. Churchill was rough on Attlee but rougher on Aneurin Bevan, Attlee's rival for the La- j bor leadership. Beven 'Voluble Careerist' Most of Churchill's Woodford speech was devoted to interna tional politics and the four power meeting "at the summit" he proposed two years ago when he was prime minister. But he dug into the Laborites with charges Attlee was a "piebald" and even Bevan was a danger ous, "voluble careerist." Bevan, in an election speech at Lowestoft, said rich people hate to pay taxes for such so cialist activities as the National Health Service but would rather send a check to a welfare society in belief that is a "passport to heaven." He did not refer to Churchill's taunts. Throughout his speech, the 80- year-old Churchill built up the case of his successor, Anthony Eden. After expressing pleasure at President Eisenhower's ac ceptance of a four-power meet ing, he told of the "new look" in the Kremlin and the improved outlook for peacer Progress in Control Of TB Discussed for Association Delegates "Until every adult has a chest x-ray or a tuberculin skin test, and every school child is given a tuberculin test, no one knows the extent of our tuberculosis problem," J. Arthur Meyers, M.D., professor of medicine at the University of Minnesota, told delegates to the annual meeting of the Oregon Tuberculosis and Health association held in Port land last week. Jackson county health depart ment delegates attending in cluded Dr. A. E. Merkel, Mrs. Cleo Kent, nurse, and Miss Doro thy Huskey, health educator. Health association representa tives were Mrs. Chester Guches, president, Mrs. Henry Padgham, vice-president, Mrs. John Cotton, Ashland, past president, and Mrs. Paul Malloy. Gold Hill Health unit The meetings were conducted as training sessions for volunteer and professional health workers. Mrs. Guches stated. Vets Far Ahead Stressing the importance of the tuberculin skin test and of chest x'-rays, Dr. Meyers stated the veterinarians are 40 years ahead of the medical profes sion." By the simple use of the tuberculin skin test, they have practically eliminated tubercu losis among cows. "The reason we are having so much tuberculosis among older people is because they became infected when the prevalence was very high, but it was not until they became older, with a lower resistance, that the dis ease "broke through," Dr. Mey ers stated. The tuberculin skin test is the first evidence a per son has come in contact with the tubercle bacillus, and children who react positively should have periodic chest x-rays the rest of their lives, Meyers stated. In ad dition, every adult associated with the child should have an x- ay in order to determine the source of the infection, he con tinued. How In New Era "We are in a new era of tu berculosis control, the expert stated. "In the past we have fol- McLeod McLeod Mr. and Mrs. Wal lace Ohrt of Seattle are honey mooning at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Hoag and family.

With the advent of the new drugs our job has become intensified and now is one of de tecting the germs still in the 'silent stage' before others are infected. Only in this way can final eradication of this unneces sary disease be accomplished. This source of infection lies in about 22 per cent of the popula tion," he stated. John Harrison of Helena, Mont., stressed the importance of volunteer health groups. He told of the case finding program in Montana in which the Ameri can Cancer society, the tubercu losis associations and profes sional groups are combining in an effort to locate early diseases. He also stressed the importance of recent legislation which trans ferred health and welfare of In dians from the Bureau of Indian Affairs to the U. S. Public Health service. Dr. Merkel and Mrs. Guches pointed out that Jackson county now has full facilities for detect ing early cases of tuberculosis and lung cancer with the two new x-ray clinics and the tuber culin testing program in the schools. Only public cooperation is now needed to save the lives and health of many in our county. 4-H Club News SW Medford Club The Southwest Medford Jun ior Forestry club met May 11 at the home of Clarence Smith.
