v In this year of politics it's In
teresting to take a look at some
of the misconceptions and mlsncv
niers tliat we're belabored Willi.
For Instance, make this state
ment In any group: "Senator Taft
Is a conservative." You'll not draw
a flicker of argument from a Taft
friend or foe.
"Conservative" is synonymous
with "Tory." Both, originally, meant
a person who believed in strong
government controls and limita
tion of the rights of the individual.
These terms are now used to in
dicate a person who believes that
the rights of the individual are par
amount and that the best govern
ment is the least government, to
Use the words of Jefferson.
In the true sense. Senator Taft
Is a radical and President Tru
man is a conservative.
Chew that one over.
We've been waiting for the stor
ies about the winter of the big
snow, and about how much whiter.
President Truman is in the posi
tion President Roosevelt was in
during early 1940, when a nation
speculated whether he intended to
' seek a third term. Mr. Truman
obviously is enjoying greatly the
. puzzlement of press and public
over his presidential plans.
The day hardly goes by without
"informed" declarations on both
sides of the question. A congress
' man emerges from the White
. House to report the President's
statement that he "never quits"
anything he undertakes.
This is promptly Interpreted as a
. sign he is determined to run
again.
Then a reporter who says he has
talked to someone who ought to
' know asserts flatly that Mr. Tru
man has irrevocably made up his
mind to retire next January. He
even goes on to name the Presi
dent s cnoice as a successor, ana
supplies details.
The President himself is -not a
deep thinker, for all his avowed
love of history and biography. He
chafes under the necessity for deal
ing with heavy subjects laden with
figures and other abstractions.
But thrust him into the middle
' of this kind of speculation, with its
mcviuiuie kuuu-iwiuicu unutct, bum
. he is happy. His news conferences
show plainly be regards this as
his meat.
We don't get much solid Infor
mation from these little seances.
Mr. Truman does not Intend that I
we snouia. - '
For instance, about all we
learned for sure a week or so ago
was that he would make his de
cision regardless of the identity of
the Republican nominee. Up to
now, the wise men have been say
The very name "Heart disease"
strikes terror in the minds of those
who hear it. This is unfortunate
lor several reasons, among them
being the fact that fright and wor
ry is of no use whatever.
Heart disease is merely a gen
eral label which covers a lot of
different kinds of disorders of the
heart, some or which can be ef
fectively treated, and many of
which can be rendered far less
menacing by appropriate manage
ment. It is appropriate at this time,
while the American Heart Asso
ciation is conducting its annual
Heart Fund campaign for eight
million dollars, to speak of some
of the progress which has already
been made.
It's also appropriate to mention
the hopeful outlook for still fur-
made possible by YOUR dollars
offers for the future.
Amont; the important causes of
heart disease is rheumatic lever.
If rheumatic fever can be elimt
nated, or better measures of pre
vention and treatment discovered,
one of the major causes of heart
disease will be conquered.
Already, information has been
obtained by our research workers
which appear to indicate '.hat we
are on the verge of a great develop
ments along this line.
Another form of heart disease
which was formerly common was
that due to the disease, syphilis.
Hers progress has been slow, but
remarkable and preventive meas
ures may eventually eliminate this
form of heart disease altogether.
Even in the forms of heart dis
ease associated with aging such
a's coronary thrombosis, angina
pectoris, or high blood pressure,
methods of management have
shown great Improvement, and it
Is virtually certain that more will
be forthcoming.
Another phase of the heart dis
ease problem which deserves em
phasis is the changed attitude
which has taken place In recent
ye?ars towards the employment of
those who are physically handi

Senator Taft were his opponent.
One other hard nugget has re
cently been mined. A new name
has been tossed in as a possible
successor. It is that of Gov Adlai
Stevenson, one-term governor of
Illinois.
Stevenson's Democratic regime
has been rated a smashing suc
cess. He won election by the
largest margin ever given a gov
ernor candidate in Illinois. Recent
ly he announced for re-election,
and then astounded political circles
by inviting Republicans to put up
the strongest possible opponent
so the people would win in any
event.
From several quarters the report
now comes that Stevenson is the
President's current favorite to re
place him. The argument runs that
Chief Justice Vinson is his No. 1 1
choice, but that many ctrcum-
stances work against bis avail-1
ohllitv
Stevenson is theoretically avail
able, has a good foreign affairs
background, and apparently no out
standing handicaps as a candidate,
except perhaps limited fame.
Maybe the firmness of the Ste
venson rumors is a real sign of
presidential intentions. But actual
ly it's pretty foolish to try to
guess his plans.
Indulging in this cat-and-mouse
game may be exactly what he
wants press and public to do at
this time.
It might be a better story if the
reporters disappointed Mr. Truman
by not asking him for two or

Enormous numbers of people
wbo would formerly have been
placed on the shelf are now use

while activities.
Providing the work is adjusted

an advance of the first importance.
Much of the Improvement in
the outlook for the patient with
heart disease is due to the sclen
tifit work and leadership of the
American Heart Association and
its members.

Some vacation notes scribbled on
an old palm leaf:
Florida is expanding so last that
most cities now have caught up
with the sidewalks built far out in
to the palmetto thickets 25 years
ago.
New businesses have been start
ed here at a higher rate than any
where else in the nation. Many
of the new pioneers are young vet

war. who fell in love with the cli
mate and came back to launch
their civilian careers. Their home

tivities shave given a fresh Impet
us to "the Peninsula State."
Florida is a land of reward now
for almost any fresh talent. For
example, anyone who likes to turn
his hand to new jobs might find
a real opportunity in a recent
newspaper ad offering $75 a week
for an alligator wrestler.
When I remarked the pay didn't
seem too attractive, an oldlimer
remarked:
"Well, the hours are short and
It's more than the alligators get."

NEW YORK W Uncle Sam 1
is talking about limiting the size
of the home you can build this
year. In return, builders could
start as many new homes as the
allotment of metal will let them
finish. '
This may surprise some folks
who think the builders themselves
have been doing a pretty success
ful job of limiting living space for
some time now.
The new federal rules which an
oflicial of the National Production
Administration says are planned
for next month also will come at
a time when more and more build
ers are wondering out loud if they
haven't gone too far in limiting
the living space left after the ex
pensive gadgets are installed.
Builders started making homes
smaller because of the rising cost
of construction, and because of the
public demand for home appliances
as in-place essentials. This sent
the finished price soaring. To meet
this demand and cut back on costs,
builders made the home smaller.
For example, they stock a utility
room with heater and appliances
and eliminate attics and basements.
People like the conveniences but
they miss the space to .store the
keepsakes they never use but can't
throw away.
If Uncle Sam goes through with
the new rules limiting the size of
homes to be built this year, it will
not be to limit living space, but to
stretch out scarce materials over
as many homes as possible. The
new idea is to let builders start
as many homes as they like If
tney use only the amount of scarce
metals chiefly copper products
allowed and restrict the size of the
house. Government planners think
this would mean about 800,000 new
homes this year. There were more
than a million last year.
The government put in similar
rules during the housing shortage
at the end of World War II. It
limited size, refused to allow more
than one bathroom, and banned
lodges.
In his budget message this week,
President Truman urged Congress
to allow the Federal Reserve Board

The present growth Is solid. Real

customers.
Thousands of small homeowners,
banking on a bright future, invest
their savings by buying extra lots
suitable as building sites. As one
resident said, laughing:
"We sell a lot back and forth to
each other, raising the price each
time, until some newcomer comes
along, buys it, and builds a house
on it and takes it out of circula

I am sorry to say that there 'Is

If your partner freezes the pack,
and if your partner is a good
player, there should be good rea
son to suppose that your side has
a far better chance to win the dis
card pile than the opponents hav.
When that is true, you must dis
regard the risk of letting the op
ponent make a natural canasta.
rour object is to make the most
of your advantage, assuming that
you have an advantage. You must
discard as 6afely as possible, trust
ing your partner if your own hand
looks rather poor.
If your partner Is not a good
player, he may freeze the pack
when your side has no clear ad
vantage. In this situation, there is
considerable risk that the oppo
nents will get the pack away
from you eventually., When that
risk Is big enough, there Is some
thing to be said for keeping a
natural canasta awayjrom them.
In short, it all depends on
whether or not you think your
partner knows what he is doing
when he freezes the pack in the
first place.
