fn the Day's News By FRANK As thi Is written, trouble of some arrt is brewing be tween the Republic of Haiti and the Dominican Republic both located on the Island of Hispaniola, just across the Windward Passage from the Soviet island satellite of Cuba. What the trouble may be is little vague this morning -as troubles down that way are apt to be - but the Dominican ambassador to the Organiza tion of American States charges that a Haitian plot is cooking to assassinate Domin ican President Juan Bosch. He claims that members of the Trujillo family (lately thrown out as DICTATOR of the Dominican Republic) are in on the scheme to assassin ate Bosch, the new president. AT THIS point, lea's put in a little backgrounding. The island of Hispaniola was discovered by Columbus on his first voyage in 1492. He claimed it for Spain. Later, about 1677, the island was divided between Spain and France, and the Haiti part of it became a French colony. The French brought in Negro slaves from Africa to work the plantations. The people of Haiti are nearly all Negroes or mulat toes - descended from the siaves brought in by the French. Most of them speak a French dialect called CRE OLE. Creole is a term used loosely to Indicate persons of Spanish and French descent. There are many Creoles in our American state of Louisi- INCIDENTALLY, most of these lower class Haitians are highly superstitious - be lieving in Voodoo spells and curses. What's Voodoo? It was brought from Africa with the original inhabitants. Accord ing to voodooism, the spirits of dead persons live in a world of ghosts, but can visit ine wuna oi uvmjg jjcibuiis w bless or curse them. A Voodoo medicine man may talk with a wooden image and say that a spirit answers him through the image. In this way, living persons may talk with the spirits of the dead.

If you happen to be a be liever in Voodoo, and if you happen to have an enemy whom you'd like to cripple, or maybe GET RID OF, you make a wax image and name it for your enemy. Oftener than not, these images are called dolls. If you Just want to x make life miserable for your enemy, you stick pins in the doll. But If you want to DO HIM IN, you melt the image down. That does it - and your enemy bothers you no more. IN EARLIER centuries, there were considerable inter changes between Hispaniola and Louisiana - which also had at times both French and Spanish government and cus toms. There were Creoles in Lou isiana - many of the proud French and Spanish colonial families. Many famous Louis iana beauties were Creoles. The Creole women are tra ditionally lovely. Also in Louisiana - far bacK in the swamps, among the il literates, there were believers in voodoo - including the making of dolls of an enemy and sticking them full of pins. QUESTION: What will WE do about this rising ruckus between Haiti, at the western end of the big island of Hispaniola, and the Dominican Republic, at the eastern end of it? In particular, what would we do about it if COMMU NIST Cuba, egged on by Sov iet Russia, should take a no tion to make ANOTHER COMMUNIST SATELLITE out of the big island of His paniola? It's hard to say. We might just fiddle around and do nothing - as we have done in the case of Cuba. When we abandoned the Monroe Doc trine, we let ourselves in for all this kind of bad trouble.

I am glad that her good home physician has taught her the t r e m endous varei aiiierence De- tween vomiting and regurgi tation. In the case of vomiting, the person usually suffers for a while from nausea, and then, with much spasm of the muscles of the midriff and the abdominal wall, brings up a pint or a quart of stomach contents. In the case of regurgitation, the person for minutes or hours will keep bringing up mouthfuls of food without any nausea and without any muscular effort. In many of these cases, the person - it is usually a girl - starts re gurgitating at the table before she has finished her meal. Some persons spit out the mouthful when it comes up. Others swallow it down again; they are called runinators (a cow ruminates - she brings up her "cud," chews it and swallows it again). Some rum inating women rechew their food and enjoy it. I do not know why women should be so much more like ly to regurgitate than men are, except perhaps that they are much more subject to ner vous troubles. Some women who have a little tendency to regurgitate have most of their difficulty once a month, and they have a great ten dency to it when they are pregnant, or when they are constipated. At such times we know that waves tend to run back up the digestive tract from one end to the other. Inheritable Tendency The tendency to regurgitate or ruminate is definitely in heritable; I have known fam ilies in which there were rum inators in each of four gen erations. When I wrote my big books on the troubles of the relatives of 673 mentally disturbed people (Practical Leads to Puzzling Diagnoses - Lippincott) I found that 17 per cent of the women who were born into a highly neur otic family group, were re- gurgitators. While working in the Mayo Clinic, seeing hundreds of pa tients, I found a few male re gurgitators and as I remem ber, most of them were cranks - eccentrics who were "a bit goofy." One whom I re member well was a very tense and nervous man, and a fin icky eater. He had decided that he could never eat solids, and yet he munched candy all day. When he chewed, he had much trouble making up his mind to start swallowing - S Mi AFTER-EASTER m mm m CLEARANCE SALE Women's Ml Sold Only In 2 Pr. Package 230 E.

When this man ate something he liked, il stayed down; it he didn't like it, up it came, mouthful by mouthful. Every night he drank heavily in order to get to sleep. In my office he was restless, fidgety and twitching. He underwent psychoanalysis, but that did not help at all. He married, but he had no use for women, and so his wife was always fighting with him. He came from an ec centric family: the patient's mother seemed sensible enough, but she came of a strange clan; several of the brothers drank heavily. One was both alchoholic and, strange to say, overly pious! Of the mother's sisters, two were too sanctimonious ever to marry and the third gave birth to a feeble-minded child. My patient had two sons. one who was already regurgi tating at the age of 6, and the other who kept regurgitating from infancy onward, as long as I knew him. Saw Him Do It I once knew a circus per former who could swallow a half-dozen almonds and a half-dozen hazel nuts, and then, on request, could regur gitate either the almonds or the hazel nuts. I fear that telling this story will cause my readers to lose all faith in my honesty - but I saw the man do it. If I hadn't seen it I would not have believed it possible. I am sorry to say I know of no drug that will stop a per son from regurgitating. The only regurgitators whom I can remember helping were those who had the will power to train themselves out of the habit. Some could "sit on the lid," especially when stran gers were present, but others never could hold the food down when it wanted to come up. It can help these people to avoid constipation, and it may help to avoid eating cer tain foods which always, in the' case of the individual, tend to come up. I remember a nurse who told me that al ways when she began to re gurgitate, it meant that she had been too long on a hard case. She would then take a rest, and with this she would get well. Many problems, as with re gurgitation, may be related to nervousness. If you think your health may be related to nerves, you'll want to read Dr. Alvarez' little booklet, "Triumph Over Nervous ness."
