Bonan the other day and sounded
him out on his feelings about the
matter. Lloyd said Adlal Stevenson
is the man to watch, but In the
final pinch he thinks Harry Tru
man will be drafted and will ac
cept the nomination to save the
parly. Says he thinks Ike Isn't the
tight man for the Job but doesn't
know Just who would be. Taxes
too high, no initiative due to this
oppressive burden. So Lloyd has
a lot of company.
There's at ieasl one man who
knows where he stands, however.
Cliff Slater, from Malm, says he's
an Old Guard Republican and
plans to stay that way. God save
the nation and the GOP.
In talking to large numbers of
people we run across this essen
tial difference of opinion on the
foreign issue: Which must come
first? Asia or Europe. The split
is aoout equal Between the two
schools of thought. Many think that
Asia should be kept free of com
munism at any cost and lei
Europe take care of itself.
Others stick staunchly to the
belief that nobody wants, or should
want, anything to do with a grub
by, backwoods country like that
(Asia) and what we should do Is
make such a formidable bulwark
of Europe that Russia will be
stopped in her tracks.
- Personally I agree with the
"strengthen Asia" group. A tight
cork m ine European jug sun won t
prevent a backfire from Russia
into Asia. And Asia and South
America, along with the Pacific,
will eventually give us a much
greater trade area than Europe
ever couia.

frequent near the elbow, it com
monly goes under the name of
"tennis elbow." This appeara to
be the result of a sort of injury
to the bursa from ore ruse.
"Housemaid's knee" is another
form of bursitis.' The bursa in
volved lies Just back of the knee
cap and is also usually the result
of Injury or overuse. And as th
name implies, it is comparatively
common among those who must be
on their knees a good portion of
the time.
There are bursas in other places
ail of which have perfectly
proper scientific names and any of
them" can become inflamed.
As in the two forms mentioned,
the most common cause of bursitis
is injury either by repeated small
injuries or from one big one.
It is not unusual for bursitis to1
start suddenly with a good deal of
pain and discomfort, as any one
who has had it can testify. Fre
quently the bursa contain? fluid,
the area around It Is tender, and
motion around It produces a good
deal of pain. Sometimes calcium
is deposited In the bursa.
Bursitis is often easier to avoid
than to cure. However, what to do
for it once it has started is a real
problem. When acutelv inflamed.
rest is particularly important and
in oroer to make tnis as complete
as necessary, a cast, snllnt or
bandage is often used. Heat some
times relieves some of the pun
and tenderness.
Part of the pain mav be the
result of pressure from fluid, and
consequently the doctor may want
to draw some of this off through
a uecuie.
Some extremely interestine- re.
suits 'by spraying the skin wltn
ethyl chloride has been reported
by a New York physician, and
there are other treaments which
may be worth trving.
The acute phase of the bursitis
suDsiae eventually but too often
it turns into a chronic condition.
This is distressing because a
chronic bursitis is highly resistant
to treatment. Deep X-ray helps
some: injection into the bursa of
various fluids may help others.
In resistant cases it may even
be necessary to operate and re
move most of the inflamed lining.
Fortunately, the really bad cases
of chronic bursitis are not too
common and most recover without
radical treatment.

newspapers on June 15, I have lit
erally been bombarded by a show
er of stones. These did not descend
rom the skies. They reached me
by way of the mall carrier. The
senders were sure or at least
hoped that their specimens were
true "stones that fell from the
heavens."
I am always glad to examine
such arrivals in the hope that a
real meteorite will show up. These
recent arrivals, however, have
been not meteorites but "meteor-
ongs." In my 20 years at this work
I have found that only one-half of
one per cent of the 1000 or more
"suspects" received nave been the
"real thing." But that hu been
quite worthwhile.
Most of the aamples received are
lava, clinkers, granite, jasper shale,
thunder eggs and even agates.
Many senders were sure they saw
their "finds" descend in a blase
of glory the night before they were
picked up. Let me quote here from
a pamphlet by Dr. H. H. Nintnger,
the internationally known meteor
ite expert.

A year's truce negotiations with
the Communists, while they gave
UN forces respite from full com
bat, decreased their military ad
vantage and Improved the Red s
position, we are now in process of
trying to regain some, at least, of
eur former edge.
We are trying to cripple the
source of the amplified mllltary
potentlal acquired by the Com
munists under the cover of 12
months of "negotiation. Thus we
bombed the Yalu River power
plants, and more recently
saturated military targets around
Pyongyang.
After both these ventures, protest
was nesrd mat tney would upset
the truce talks. But how can you
upset nothing? For that Is exactly
wnat Has been accomplished in the
tedious negotiations, in spite of
"paper gains" on some points.
In other words, while examina
tion of the detailed status of the
conferences would reveal numer
ous places where agreement was
apparent, these accords are mean
ingless. This Is so because the
Reds have peralstently balked at
taking the really key steps to set
tlement, mis is tne same sort oi
tactics they employed on the
Austrian treaty.
Having allowed ourselves to be
enticed Into phony peace talks and
having thus lost important military
advantage, we cannot now be
blamed for seeking to restore by
any reasonable military means the
superiority we formerly enjoyed. ,
Am thinfi-a stand -we cannot
launch a heavy ground offensive.
We are not mounted for It. Further
more, it would be an abrupt sig
nal that the truce talks were for
all practical purposes ended except
aa an aosuro notion. Ana mere ia
point, in keeping the .door open.
We can. however, deliver heavy
blows by air, for our air offensive
has never been suspended at any
stage of the negotiations. If
we tapered off, it was only because
at times our air strength was
diminished. Today it is growing
aealn. as evidenced by the mass
flight of Thunderjets from this
country to Japan for Korean duty.
Oeneral Collins, Army Chief of
Staff, sounded the right note on a
tour of the Korean battlefields
when he said . that without an
armistice, the Communists can ex.
pect hard air attacks. If the Reds
want these assaults stopped, they
can have It that way. All they have
to do is sit down at ranmunjom
and negotiate honestly and ser-
ously.

1952 May Be Nation's
Worst Year For Polio
By WARREN BENNETT
There were 4.304 polio easel In
ine uniiea oiaica up 10 juiv a, ivjj.
more than In any other flrstvbslf
year in nisiory.
That does not necessarily mean
a record-breaking polio year, says
tne riationai rounaatton lor mien
tile Paralysis. It's still loo aarlv
to tell. Seventy-five per cent of
polio cases come In the really hoi
weather from now to September.
But the National Foundation aavs
the current outbreak Is running 311
per cent higher than this time last
year and 44 per cent higher than
tne iive-year average.
What ultimately Is In store for
the country this year can't be
predicted. The higher rates ao iar
do not necessarily mean a severe
year.
But the start Is certainly omi
nous.
The nubile health service report
ed 4,304 polio cases In the conti
nental US litirme the first 27 week
ef 1SJ2. This waa the week ending
July t, latest for which national
totals are available. During the
same period Issl year there were
a,2u cases.
The 4.304 cases during the first
27 weeks of IB52 la 1.003 higher
than the total for the same period
in 1(51 when 29.6M cacea were re
ported for the full year.
In 1141, when the nation had 42,
3M cases, Its heaviest polio epi
demic on record, there were only
J IM cases during the first 27 weeks
ine liH totals, thus far, art 440
higher than 14.
In 1850. when the second sever
est outbreak occurred. There were
3.09O cases during the first 27
weeks. The full year total for 1060
were 33,360 cases.
. This yesr as laat, the western
part of the country appears to be
the hardest hit.
Polio already has reached epi
demic proportions In some areas
of Texaa. Texas has nearly three
times as many cases this year as
at a corresponding period In 1961.
The Lone Star State reported a to
tal of 1.303 cases at the end of the
27th week this year, compared with
43 last year.
The California total for the same
time was 610 cases this year against
660 In 1061. Louisiana had 240 cases
compared with 150 In 1051.
Texas, which has nearly onc-thli d
of the national total of cases report
ed this year, received 44 Iron lungs
from the National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis 18 of them In
June. Last year at the half-year
mark, Texas received only 10
respirators from the National Foun
dation and only two were required
during June.
Reflecting this year's high Inci
dence, the National Foundation
supplied 271 emergency respirators
to polio patients In all parts of
the nation. Tills was more than
three times the number supplied
during the first six months of 1061.
Last year epidemics hit five
states particularly hard. Polio
reaches the epidemic stage when
there are more than 20 cases per
100,000 population.
