Concord, N.H. !U.R) To
the casual observer most of the
action in New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation
presidential pri
mary next Tuesday will be on
the Democratic side of the bal
lot. But one spot on the Republi
can ballot holds a great deal
of interest to the seasoned ob
server: The place for a write-in
preference for vice-president.
, Democrats have a clean-cut
battle for delegates between
Sen. Estes Kefauver of Tennes
see and the 1952 nominee, Adlai
E. Stevenson.
No one expects anything but
an Eisenhower sweep on the
GOP side. Mr. Eisenhower is the
only candidate in the preferent
ial section for President. And 26
of the 36 delegate candidates
are favorable to the President.
Seven are favorable to Sen.
William Knowland of Califor
nia, two are unpledged and one
k favorable to Chief Justice
Earl Warren. Fourteen GOP
delegates will be elected.
Kefauver Alone
. Kefauver is alone in the pre
ferential section of the Demo
cratic ballot but has stiff oppo
sition in the battle for delegates.

Aje you familiar with a film
titled "The Scarlet Pimpernel"?
Margaret Truman saw it 16
times. That was when her Papa
was President and she could ask
for a White House showing of
any film in which she was in
terested. I believe the 16 show
ings of "The Scarlet Pimpernel"
is the White House record. There
have been 48 daughters of Pres
idents in our country's history
and only two seem to have
inspired any marked degree of
public interest. They are Alice
Roosevelt, daughter of Theodore
Roosevelt, and Margaret Tru
man. The latter's life story titled
"Souvenir" now appearing in
the Good Housekeeping Mag
azine g a remarkably well
handled and appealing autobiog
raphy. It is entirely devoid of
affectation. In addition to having
the virture of sincerity, Miss
Truman's tale is intensely in
teresting because it includes so
much inside stuff on life as lived
in the White House.
Horses and Women
Sophia Loren, the Italian cin
ema siren, is known as "The Siz
zler." Sophia is quite a sizzler.
However, I think Anita Ekberg
outsizzles her. In fact I , think,
generally speaking, the Scandi
navian beauties outsizzle the
Italian beauties. Many Scandin
avian families, lived in our old
neighborhood in Bay Ridge,
Brooklyn. Of course, I was too
young to know from personal
experience but from" what I

Surgical Technique Sews Buttons
On Patients To Prevent Hematoma
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York (U.R) Surgeons
the masters of the threaded
needle, the stitch, and the seam
now have a technique for sew
ing buttons onto their patients.
Take the hand, for example.
Put a button in the palm, and
sew the buttons together with
the threads going right through
the hand, of course.
That is a "compression sut
ure" which was described by
Dr. Radford C. Tanzer, assistant
professor of plastic surgery,
Dartmouth Medical school, at a
recent meeting of the New Eng
land Surgical society.
The buttons are plain,; ordi-

were real "sizzlers." Especially
the Swedish girls. Where did
Byron get that idea he expressed
in the line 'The cold in clime are
cold in blood"? Guess he never
knew a Swedish girl.
Asides
According to color psychol
ogists the color with the least
sex appeal is orange . . . In case
of an automobile accident the
most dangerous seat is that next
to the driver. That one is called
the "death seat" by experienced
observers of auto accidents . . .
On Saturdays and Sundays the
principal Tokyo, Japan, race

of flat running races, steeple
chase races, harness races and
bicycle races. With mutuel wa
gering on all.
Sidelights
How many proposals of mar
raige had your wife received
when she accepted yours? ;Ji is
said that Prince Rainier was the
53rd man to propose marriage to
Grace Kelly. . . . Have you heard
of the "long deep sleep" cure
for heart ailments. It is being
experimented with in Russia.
Calls for the patient sleeping 20
hours a day for 20 days.
Presents
Is your wife's birthday in
April? Or are you approaching
the 10th year of your marriage?
Have you decided on a present?
Do you know Christian Dior is
now designing diamond neck
laces? The diamond is the April
birthstone. So a Dior necklace
would be a nice little present for
an April born wife. The 10th
wedding anniversery is the "dia
mond jewelry wedding" so a
similar necklace would be most
appropriate for a gift to a loving
wife on that occasion.

More Campaigning
Kefauver has visited -New
Hampshire twice to gain popu
United
sue.
. .In the surgical repair of some
types- of injuries, the danger of
leaving, a hollow area in the
body where a hematoma could
form is a very pressing one. And
present techniques are not al
ways adequate.
. Dr. Tanzer has been experi
menting with buttons for sever
al years, he told his fellow sur
geons. He found that they work
ed beautifully wherever on the
body there were two . back-to-back
surfaces onto which he
could sew them. '
The hand has two such sur
faces. So do the ear; the lips, and
the cheek, with the cheek,
the second button become invis
ible to casual glance, since it is
inside the mouth.
He has sewed on buttons in
22 cases, he said, and in only
one case did a hematoma devel
op. He also found buttons effec
tive in preventing hemorrhage
when the surgical area is around
the ears, lips, or cheeks.
Hematomas are a complica
tion which are likely to develop
after surgery to repair wounds
in the "more mobile areas" of
the body (such as the hand) or
after surgery which required the
"undermining of covering struc
tures," he reminded his au
dience. '..,,
The problem usually is to find
a way to make the "covering
structure adhere effectively - to
the floor of a concave defect."
He cited a number of his cas
es, including that of an eight-year-old
girl who had mangled
her hand in the wringer of moth
er's washing machine.
He raised a flap of skin from
her abdomen. This flap he fixed
firmly to the "denuded"-Palm of
her hands with his befttons-back-to-back
technique. Thus, he
made a successful graft which,
when the hand was cut loose
from the abdomen, gave the
child a repaired and usable
hand. '

Congress Studying
Elimination of
Postal Law Changes
. By HARRIS ELLSWORTH
Congressman, Fourth District
Washington, D.C. (Special)
About four years ago Congress
thought it was doing a ' good
thing .vnen it passed a law
changing the . uniform size and
weight limitations on parcel post
packages and setting various size
and weight limitations for pack
ages from - different classes of
post offices. The law has caus
ed considerable irritation and
dissatisfaction.
Last fall when I was in Ore
gon I was requested by four dif
ferent cities through their cham
bers of commerce, and others, to
introduce special bills in - Con
gress to eliminate them from
the application of the law. Oth
er members of Congress report
ed similar requests. The practic
al approach to the problem is,
of course, to get rid of the trou
blesome law itself.
A bill re-establishing uniform
weight and size limitations was
introduced and now the Post Of
fice department after attempt
ing to administer the old law
has simply asked Congress , to
pass the new bill. I hope we can
get it passed in the very near
future.
