Down with the Doctor By DEB ADDISON HERE'S aome good fatherly adrice to all those who hate the thought of sodsllsrd medicine, and an those who dont enjoy the thought of en tering poor health. To one who also abhors the H,ht of rettins- embroiled in discussions of politics ana weusrw euc win the like, there appears one simple way of chucking the whole thing for good. Get rid of tha source ot tha trouble the doctor. Of course, you cant get rid of him If you Insist on getting sick. It waa outlined here a few days ago how to get rid of T7 of the cttnieal cases.

And I might have to consult one If this cold continues, so I hate to get on the blacklist, but for the good of humanity, here goes. Anyway, anti-histamine drugs (that's what this started to be about) are now in the patent medi cine stage, to there's a chance to get m good with the pin peddlers. For Instance: Union Pharma ceutical Co. puts out Inhiston. Anahlst Co. puts out Anahlst, Grove Laboratories put out Antamlne, Bristol-Myers Co. puts out Reslstab. There's a theory out that a cold primarily to an allergic response, like hay fever. Histamine Is the nigger In the wood pile. The antt-histamine drugs, which have been given on doctors prescriptions for World Today By DEWTTT MacKENZlE BRITAIN'S conservatives naturally are Jubilant over the outcome of the New Zealand and Australian elections which have evicted their socialist governments and replaced them with regime calling for the restoration of private Initiative. The British conservatives profess to believe that these upsets presage similar disaster for John Bull's socialistic governments In the forthcoming general election. The socialists are saying little and Indeed there lsnt much for them to say. AS a matter of fact one takes the liberty of doubting whether either Conservative Leader Winston Churchill or Socialist Prime Minister Attlee would be willing to bet his right arm that he can correctly interpret Britain's prospects on the strength of the Australian and New Zealand elec tions. This column pointed out Saturday that there to little similarity between the position ot England and these dominions "down under." Australia and New Zealand are wide open spaces with rich resources. On the other hand Britain is small, badly overcrowded and has few natural re sources. She cant even grow the food to feed herself. The days are gone when she could replenish her glittering coffers by the simple expedient ot Import ing raw materials, fabricating them and reexportlng them to the selfsame foreign lands whence they came. THE two prosperous dominions are naturally en dowed to undertake free enterprise programs. And what to meant by "free enterprise-? Robert Gordon Mensiea. who was Australia's prime minister from 1931 to IM1 and win be her new head of govern ment, has summed it up aa one In which ambition to encouraged, in which there are rewards for the courageous and the enterprising. In which there to no foolish doctrine of equality between the active and the Idle, the Intelligent and dull, frugal and Improvident. He adds: "We must choose between tha ancient British Idea that the government to the servant of the people and the shabby, defeated continental Idea that we are the servants of the government." HAS Britain reached an economic position which forces her to depart from the dashing days ot Ihe private Initiative upon which her greatness was built? The conservatives (referred to slightingly as 'tones- by their opponents) emphatically deny that England has lost her punch and maintain that she to capable of iemeiy. The socialists also believe the country can re cover, but by their acta have demonstrated that they think the rehabilitation must be achieved through welfare government. That and development of Britain's colonial lesumiea. SO the thing simmers down to the proposition of which theory of government to right. The British voter must decide that at the next general election. They must say whether the socialist government has Justified Its claims In' meeting the country's terrible economic crisis. Free false teeth arent a completely satisfactory answer to that momentous question. More to tha point to Whether there to anything for the nippers to chew on at a reasonable price. ! esl 'er en eat V. a. asa HKtm t 1 "This Christmas wiH put a dent in our savings, but at least ws won't have to worry so much about tha bank failing!"

Poachers The situation has created a new medical problem secret wster drinkers. A man Is afraid to leave a visitor alone in his room, for fear he will rush to the nearest tap and drink himself unconscious. Of course, while the taps still run the shortage has lis advantages. A host no longer has to worry about his scotch or rye running out. "How about a highball or straight wster?" He murmurs. The real stuff?" Any day now I expect some char acter m a turned down hat and a turned up collar to sidle over and whisper out of the corner of his mouth. "Wants buy some blsck market water, Mac? We Just smug gled aome In from New Jersey on a fast ferry." An acquaintance of mine says he Isn't going to miss out In the wster shorsge. "Darned If I'm going to get caught hi a black market In that." he rumbled. -I was too lata In getting Into the black markets during the war. and I got stuck with five bags of sugar and three doxen white shirts." When I asked him how he was going to avoid it, he said: I tied knots In my white shirts. put them In the bathtub and filled them with water. Did the same thing with my sugar sacks, too. I'm al ready prepared for the emergency." A nice thing about the shortage Is that they no longer bring you flngerbowls In most restaurants.

Dec. 11 Ap parently there Is no Immediate dan ger that the modern horse will dis appear, as did little Eohlppus. Present day horses ot tha West are believed to have been derived trum the mount lost strayed or stolen of the Spanish eonqulste- dorr. Eohlppus, shots fossilised bones hav. been found In Western la tea. was a small four-toed creature of tha Eocene age. which science rec ognises as one of the earliest an cestors of the horse and ot the tapir and rhinoceros. True, the horse population ot the West and of the nation haa de creased heavily under the competi tion ot motor equipment. The "big hitch" that pulled and powered the combined harvesters ot a decade ago and the lo-mule team rig that hauled freight across tha deserts have given way to tractors and trucks. Increase But a spokesman for the agricul ture department aaya there Is evi dence the number of lighter ani mals Is on the increase despite an overall decrease In the number ot The agriculture department esti mates there are only Pa 000 horsea In the 11 Western states this year. That's I per cent less than a year ago. and compares with 1.IM.000 in 1J0. But there's stiU no better way to get a cow critter out of heavy un derbrush or out of a steep moun tain canyon than to go after her on horseback. The evidence Indi cates that cow-punchers' strings are smaller but better. On the other hand, a winter like last year's has convinced some Western ranchers thst they are de pending too much on motors. One Miles City. Montana, rancher said . e found he could get around In the heavy snow with his teams and saddle animals but he didn't have enough of them. Another thing that Is pushing the development of lightweight horses Is an expansion of racing. The quarter horse was developed for thst pur pose and adapted to ranching needs. Harness raring has been gradually spreading along the Pacific coast. SUU further Impetus has been given by the Increasing popularity of riding clubs. The agriculture spokesman said these have been In creasing, even In cities of no more than 1000 population. He aald there are betwen too and 00 of these clubs In California alone. Many have been formed In tha intermountaln country. The old-time range horse, tike the heavy draft animal, la disappear ing, he said. Buyers are becoming more conscious of values. The wsr hsd something to do with a reduction of the scrub stock because: ill worthless animals were getting graas needed by meat stork; horse meat Is an acceptable food In some European countries and became marketable: and ill mea scraps for the pet dog or cat were almost non-existant and canned horsemeat came Into use as pet food. Even with three strikes against them, the wild horses hsve not yet disappeared. The bureau of public lands, which msnages the government's range lands, estimates that at least a third of the 700.000 horses feeding on the public domain are wild.

Soviets Seek U. S. Market For Official Party Journal By JAMItS MARLOW WASHINOTON, Dee. . m Twice a month the Soviet govern ment Issues in English here a magaslne called "USSR Information bulletin." Although tha matesine Is listed to sell for 10 rents, the Russians have been sending II tree lo Ameri can public schools. The dlrtrtbutlon to the schools seems fslrly wide. In Ihe latest Issue there Is a let ter to "dear reader" In which Ihe editors explain what a fine maga slne they think It Is. They say a lot of Americans would like to have It if they knew of It. And In the letter they say "teach ers would have enjoyed a dosen pieces on education, on the role of the Instructor, night schools, voca tional training, and the growth of enrollment." But there seems to be a difference of opinion about this. Yesterday aome school heads In this country announced they had banned the magaslne from their schools. For Instance. Ihe Washington pub. he school officials have refused to let It be circulated among the stu dents. Why? School Superintendent Hobart M. Corning said last night the maga slne was barred because (he board of education, which decides what magaslnes may be turned loora In the schools, hsdnt approved this one. 1 Asked If the Washington school system bars publications from other governments. Corning aald he knew of no such publications from other governments arriving at tha schools t. At Columbus. Ohio, school Super intendent N. O. Fawcett aald all six high schools had received the magaslnes but all copies and all "So viet propaganda publications' are being seiard. Several Massachusetts schools hsve reported retting the magaslne and one. at Fall River, has told the Russians to quit sending II. The school heads teem to be tak ing a much sterner view of the magsslne than the U. S. stale de partment which has received nu merous letters erfctng about It or objecting to It. The state department replies there's no law here permitting the government to suppress the Russian publication. It adds thst, as a mat ter of policy, the U. 8. stands tor a full and free International ex change of information. The Rutalans dont share the American government's belief In the Importance of free exchange of In formation, as this will show: This government distributes In Russls every month a magazine called "Ameriks." The U. S. gov ernment publishes "Ameriks" It's written In Russian by Runuan-lan-guage experts employed by the U. S. government here. It contains stories about life In America, aurh as the World Series and the American capacity for hot dogs.. But It contains no political articles. The Russlsn government eres to thst. The pieces for "Ameriks" are written here. Then, In unpublished form, they are sent to Moscow for spproval or disapproval of the Rus sian government. The Russians can censor what the dont like. Then the approved articles are re turned here, published In the maga zine, and "Amenka" Is rent to Mos cow tor distribution. Although 'ht Russlsns censor -Ameriks." this government doesn't censor the Russian Information "Bulletin" distributed here. Does it contain Rusrtan propagan da or political articles? You can Judge for yourself from this partial list of articles in the latest Issue: "Soviet Constitution Olves People s Vivid Charter of Freedom; "Vyshinsky proves U. S. Atom Con trol Plsn Aids Monopoly, Not Pesce;" "Another Tito Spy Ousted; Tllo Bells Refugee Children;" "So cialism Ended Mass Joblessness for Western Hjrelnrusilans " And there ere s number of pic tures showing Ihe brighter tide ot Russian Hie. The Russian niaiaaina Is put Into English by thiro American citterns here. They ere registered sa Soviet agents becsuve, under Amerlrsn law. people doing thai kind ot work must be so registered.
