A Complaint of Childre n
By Merman N. Bundesen. M. 0. ONE of the most common complaints which tb<- doctor dealing with Infanta and young children i*. called <>n to treat I* constipation. | While this condition may he due to a arret variety of cause*. rang hut from faulty diet to bad toil«-i; habits. the part played hy actual' faults In the structure of the rec. film shuts Id not be overlooked Unfortunately, some babies are Itoru with such defects but in these cases careful examination will re veal the fault, which can often be corrected by quite simple treat inent once It la recognised. Dividing Membranes For tasatnee. babies are sometimes constipated because the membranes which divide the bowel •nd the outside have not completely dissolved. According to hr. Edwin F. Patton of Beverly Hill* California, some trace of the mem branes is present in many babies. 4s a result the baby must strain a great deal to have a bowel movement. and the stools often are ribbon shaped. The abdomen Is swollen and blood may be present in the sloola i The treatment of this condition is Mot difficult. The membrane is stretched when the physician puts bis Anger into the rectum. Several treatments arc all that is necesI Aaother cause of constipation In young children Is a Assure or Brack in the lining membrane of ■he lower part of tbe bowel. In Ether caass, there may be some |.Aammatloii of the lining mem Brane called proctitis. In treating Kia disorder. Ur. Patton suggests Kat the siM of the stools be de-

But the point giving most concern in this report Is something else, When millions of the nation's best youth were giving their lives to protect their country, other citizens who remained at home were trading Hack market whisky A good many people hope their sentences may lie the heaviest the law allows. O () — When the native* of Bikini, coral Isle were assembled and told by United States naval official* that their little kingdom had been selected for atomic bomb tests, they found it hard to understand what the white men were saying. That was not surprising. The white men themselves didn't understand the atom bomb Finally a Bikini chief spoke for his people: •'We'll be glad to give up our homes and move to another aioli, if il will help stop wars." No report comes to what the navy men said to this • But the Wied- of the unlettered | Pacific islander must have given tin- white men pause. O- O In the interest of public safety laws were passed several yeats ! ago specifying that shatter proof . glass had to be installed in auto, mobiles. Similar legislation was passed in iesp<s t to steel coaches , and Pullman cars on the railroads. While th'- new equipment has not stopped auto and train wrecks, the It-e of Steel cars attd the tin- I breakable gla.-s undoubtedly has ' retimed injury and the loss of| life From the recent disastrous i hotel fires It appears that some thought must Io- given to building construction of hotels, or the lives saved in wreck will be consumed in hulocust* similar to those which struck Chicago and Dubuque the past few days. 0-0 — Donald Ma< Millan. 71-year-old Arctic explorer, will sail this summer for his 25th Arnie explora ■ tion.

Supreme Court On Summer Vacation Split Decisions In Nation's High Court Washington. June II (UP) The supreme court today started a three- and-a-half month vacation after completing Its 159th term a year marked with frequent ami sharp disagreements over the handling of cases. The justices were able to get together on less than half es the 134 decisions handed clown during the teim. Only 62 were unanimous On 20 cases they were unable to reach agreement at all ami these have lieen orch-recl reargued after the court reconvenes the first Week of October. The cleavage in views did not a* in other recent terms reach the point of name-calling and personal inventive* iu opinions them selves. The most frequent accusation hurled by dissenting just ices was that the majority was writing law iu the court room. The divergence in the Justice*' approach to the law was much In evidence in yesterday's final session In the II opinions handed down, there; were five Lto-3 splits and five S-to-2 splits. On only one Important decision did all the tribunal's participating member* agree. It upheld the justice department's anti-trust suit against the “big three tobacco manufacturers American. R- JReynold* aud Liggett & Myers And In this case, justice Felix Frankfurter believed the court should leave considered other issues beside* (he charge of monopl y.

0 TELLS CONGRESS (CMtlaiWd From P*se O»*> "would remove some ot the major cause* of insecurity and would greatly aid In achieving industrial ■ peace." The Case I*lll fails in this respect. he said, Imcaune it "strikes! at symptoms and igno><* underly ] i*g causes." Mr. Truman said the Case bill, had it been law during the recent major strikes "whic h have so seriously damaged our economy." would have "failed completely" to prevent or shorten theni.’. Rather, he said, "each of these strikes would have bad the full sanction of the bill.” Rep. Andrew J. Blemliler, D„ Wl*.. said 127 house member* had signed a petition promising to vote to uphold the veto. Other*, be said, had promised verbally. He
felt this was enough to prevent rejection of the veto mMsago. Mr. Truman mildly n buked congrew for acting liaatlly on the bill, some of whose swtlons he favorvd Picking the measure apart, section by section. Mr. Truman listed these major objections to the bill: 1. it would defeat th > "high and unqueetionaldy desirable objective" ot encouraging peaceful settlement of labor disputes. 2. It Is likely to encourage unions to resort to "quickie' strike* the type which the bill seek* to eliminate. 3. Its penalties nr* "inequitable." He said it provldtM hasher penalties for labo- than for management. 4. The provision for a 6<t-day ccollng off period during which strikes are forbidden would result In premature demand* for mediation. "long before the poH-dbilitho of direct negotiations between the parties had been exhausted." 6. If mediation la proffered and the 6u day period expires without results, employe* would feel free to strike "with the sanction of congrtos." 6. i'rovlaioiis of one section of the bill (section 3D) "might well r>*ult in some employer* provoking strikes in order to give them the opportunity to discharge the employe leader* " 7. The proposed iwtablishment of a five-man federal mediation board actually is "a backward step" Inasmuch as it would have no quasiajudici.il or quaol-leglslative functions, but would be purely an administrative agency. The net effect of such a board Would be to create a separate and duplicate labor department. 8. Congrms ha<s applied the factfinding principle to public utilities "•nt has omitted It entirely in other industries of equal importance” Then Mr. Truman took to bitter task the section of the measure embodying "the so-.alled antiracketeering act." "This section." the pnwident j said, "•loi.s no more thin prohibit al! persons, whether union repre-M-ntatives n employees or others. I Irmn intern ring with interstate | commerce i>y robbery ami <xtor-, tion." Mt Truman added that such a provkslon did not bar strikes and peaceful picketing.
