It may mean the inauguration of a different college commencement program for the nation. In a special congressional election in the state of Washington, the Republican candidate who supported the Truman doctrine was elected over the Democrat, who had the backing of the Wallace wing.

Smoking May Not Harm Ulcer Patients

By Herman N. Bundtsen. M. D. ULCER patient* who like to smoke will lie gad to know of a study which indicate* that tobacco may not be so harmful in ulcer as was formerly supposed. Os course, smoking to excess Will he harmful to anyone, and par tlcularly to ar. ulcer patient, but at the sarn. time, the findings made hy Dr. R A. Jamieson and his co-workers of Glaagiow. Scotland, snow that it may not be neeeesary to ban smoking altogether In cases of this kind. Symptom* Clearly Defined The exact cause for ulcer is not known, but the symptoms It causes are clearly defined. Usually grouped together under the heading dyspepsia. they include such things a* pain, coming on one to three hours after meals, sdcknes* to the stomach and. sometimes, vomiting. • Dr. Jsmleson studied 473 persons between the ages of 20 and 64 years to determine the relationship between smoking habit* and the severity of such symptoms. All patients in the group had suffered acute perforation of a peptic ulcer from one to five years previously. > A casual investigation of findings of these physic Uns indicated tfrat light cigarette smokers were likely to bo free of sympUms. and heavy smokers to have morn ne> p ;! a

Republicans and that a Democrat could have been elected If he had ridden on the Truman bandwagon. 0 Q— Congress hasn’t done much about reducing the number of persons on the federal payroll, although it has had full sway since the first ot the year. According to Senator Byrd, the ‘’eagle-eye’’ of the senate who probably knows more about government finances, than any other member, there are 2.241, 459 still employed. Even little Vermont has 3.159 federal employes. o o— From the days of the American revolution, 1776, more than 39 million people have immigrated to this country from all parts of the world. The country's population today is estimated at 140 million and advocates of the plan to admit 400.000 refugees or displaced persons point out that the United States grew great because of new blood being infused in the national bloodstream. If it hadn't been for Immigration, most of the families of America wouldn't be here. The traffic count made along U. 8. highway 27 north ot the city shows a tremendous volume roiling ’ along this all important state road.) in a 34 hour period, almost 4.800 cars passed a certain point. The survey was made by the Chamber of Commerce, with the city administration cooperating and more than 40 persons serving as volunteers. The figures will be used in presenting to the Indiana State Highway Commission, the plea for a double-lane road between Decatur and Fort Wayne. O- 0 The special judge named to hear and decide the mandamus suit against the board of county commissioners and other public officials has ruled that the proper legal bpdy proceed with the issuing of bonds to defray the costs of dredging the Wabash river. County officials appraised of the court’s ruling indicate that an appeal wjll be taken. The 40 year old case, which probably breaks all records in the state for being I on the docket the longest, started with a petition to dredge the river from a point near the Ohio line, west to IJnn Grove. The mandamus suit was a separate proceeding and it is probable that before work is started on the dredging that new contracts will have to be let, for the prices submitted ten years ago would not hold. No contractor would be expected to proceed with a job of this nature based on 1937 labor and material costs, in addition to the several hundred land owners affected by the proposed improvement, many of whom paid ttyir assessment, the county itself has a direct cost for building bridges and road approaches along the stream.

vere symptoms. On the other hand, it was found that pipe smoking was often associated with mild symptoms. However. older patients tend to have milder symptoms than younger ones and It was the older patients who smoked pipes while the younger one* used cigarettes. In other words, the study of the statistic* suggested that cigarette smokers with ulcer tend to have severe symptoms because they are young, and that pipe smokers tend to have mild symptoms because as a general rule the pipe smokers are old. If smoking were harmful to patients with peptic ulcer. It would be possible to show thst their symptoms would become less severe if they reduced the amount of Rtioking that they do. However, this was not found to be the case. Furthermore, it was not noted that increased pipe smoking was harmful to the patient. Let me say again that smoking to excess may lie harmful to anyone. Furthermore, it should be emphasised that the amount of smoking a sick person does should be determined by hie physician. There are so many element* to be considered that only a doctor' is competent to decide whether smoking will be harmful in the individual •»* • •• — Wr w* • <esn*

SYNOPSIS* The retest marriage ot Hill Arden, •eriuua young lawyer, to ritacioua Diane Tarrrll, wae viewed with miegiving by the more reaver*elite membere ot Urandharbor eorieiy. Bill belonged to one ot the town'a oldeet families, while Diaae'e father, wealthy J. Lmmet Terrell, and I’aala, her eUpavolher, were comparative oewcomere with littlo or no baehgroond. It wan removed, 100, that J. Kmmel bad eome by hie huge fortune rather qsevtioaably. Attractive Pago Winaton, who bad been in love with Hill alnee childhood, managed to hide her heartbreak from all bnt Befn» Kent, Bill's termer roommate al Hartard, who had recently come to Urandharber to work on The Peat. Diane wan Ideally happy, doaplte the faet that moot of Bill'o eveniage had io be devoted to tbe IHaplro eave which ho wae preparing tor trial. Il war bio brat big aaalgnment, and M handled eoeeeoafnlly might gain him a junior partnerehlp. However, he agreed to lake a night •fi to entertain a few of their friendo, among them. Page aad Bates. Diane woo deeply hurt when, a few etenlago later, one of tbe erowd phoned to aok them out; aa canal, ahe declined, but Bill, Inotead of being grateful, angrily voiced the wish that ber friendo would pbene during the day. Paring tor their amall apartment took little time, and moot every afternoon found Diane at the country elob half-heartedly puraulng tbe aatne gay aetlvltioo abo had before marriage. CHAPTER NINE THE STAPLES trial began In less than a month, the State against Martin Staples, charged with criminal intent to defraud The newspapers gave front-page columns to it, which Diane read carefully as soon as Bill left the apartment. From them she gathered that the defendant had sold a large tract ot land to the State for a new hospital and gotten more money for it than be should. The words •'graft" and "bribery” and “collusion” were repeated over and over. But Diane was less roused by that than that the newspapers referred frequently to the able Prosecuting Attorney, John Darnell, and seldom to William Arden, counsel for the defense. Then she read an editorial Rufus bad written for the Post in which he lauded the determination of the "able” Prosecuting Attorney to rid the city of its sleek cheaters, its wolves in sheep's clothes, as he Ct IL And not a word in ft about r equally able Bill! "What did Rufus mean?" she asked Bill at dinner. Bill, had not read the editorial; she bad to tell him what was In it Bill shrugged his shoulders. "Rufus likes to run with the pack. It's after Staples because he's rich and a big fellow in his political party. He was considered for the nomination of governor a few years ago." Diane was silent a moment, considering this new slant on Rufus It explained a little hto manner toward ber. of not quite accepting her. Then she brought ber thought back to Bill's client "DID he cheat when he sold that land?" she pressed, interestedly. Bill was pushing back hia chair, though he'd eaten scarcely any dinner.

be. He left early for the office, came home late; he ate, when he ate anything, with notes he had made by tbe side of his plate. Diane believed she could count on her fingers the number of times, to date, he had voluntarily spoken to her. But Rufus had prepared her for it, so she adapted herself to It, maintaining toward Bill the cheerful tolerance of a good-natured nurse, caring for a temperamental patient Only Rufus' editorial had shaken her out of this. "You didn't really answer me," she thought with some spirit after Bill's answer. And then she found herself wondering if Bill really believed Staples innocent If he didn’t, how could he put himself so into defending him? The trial threatened to drag out for some weeks. In its second week Diane stopped reading about it It became tiresome to follow, with its question and answer and the objections made to the court, first by the Prosecuting Attorney and then by Bill, every time a witness said anything; the court adjourning just when the testimony seemed to be getting somewhere. She did not read any mors of Rufus* editorials. Every morning she despatched her marketing—lt was routine now—and dressed again to drive to the dub for tennis or a swim. The days were hot and sunny. Poor Bill, she would think often, as she sped over macadam road that curved to the green, gently-rolling heights of the Old Colony Club, the freshness of the open country against her face. "It would be nice if Bill could play with me!" There were several, always, on the club veranda to hail her coming. Lois, Wilma, other girls, vivacious, as colorful In their summer clothes as a flock of tropical birds, would gather around her. Sometimes Page was there. Diane liked to play tennis with Page; Page was serious enough about it to make it a good game. None of them hurried, though, to get started at anything. There would be first a little while of lounging in the comfortable chairs on the veranda, a lively, careless exchange of talk. This never touched on the trial. Martin Staples might be the devouring Wblf Rufus pictured him, a menace to society, but it did not concern these young people They had gone on with Lois’ idea of shooting a moving picture, in which they all would appear. It offered novelty and excitement at a time of the year when there wasn't much. Danny, to everyone’s surprise, produced a script for it. "Oh, nothing, my pets! Really nothing. I dashed It off while I was shaving!" But Lois, reading it, squealed over it. When she read it aloud, the others laughed, too, and grew more enthusiastic. They agreed Diane must have the lead. “Os course! Who else?" Ross would direct, by right of some experience in the Little Theater group. Thad Corning would come into it Danny would grind the camera. But who would take the part of the news;Jb.per man. about to depart for the wan In Europe when be meets Diane aad falls tor bar wiles?

yours, DI. The one you hid at youi house that night!" Vicky asked with Interest: "Tall ? A sort of half-way between Abraham Lincoln ant Will Rogers? 1 saw him with Page Winston in Guiseppi's the other night. They weren’t dancing—just talking, and how!” "I wonder, did her mother know," Wilma laughed. The others laughed; they laughed frequently at Page's mother. Except Diane, who said quickly: "She ought not to mind. He's a swell person!’* "But, Di, not of an old, old family!" "Like the Ardens,” added Vicky. "Mrs. Winston had Bill picked for Page when they were in their cradles." "She hadn’t heard about Diane.” "J don't think Rufus Kent would come into it," Diane put in, answering Lois, as if nothing had been said between. "He doesn't like our sort" "But you can make him, Di!” begged Lois. "We don't know anyone who so looks the part! Use all you've got on him!” "Wouldn’t that be just a little too mean to Page?” demanded Vicky. Diane slid off the ugranda railing where she had been perched. Her eyes flashed a little. "I'll ask Rufus," she said briefly. "Anyone going into the nook?" At once they all decided to-go into the pool. They were a little like sheep. They spent the rest of the morning in the water and in the sun at the side of it, their chatter as vagrant as the breeze that touched their almost bare bodies. They went back to the locker room and discarded swimming suits for slacks and lunched in the cool, panelled dining room. After lunch they separated, some to go back to the city, some to play tennis or golf. Diane played three sets of tennis with Wilma, then she drove home. At home she wandered about the rooms a little restlessly. There was nothing to do until dinner time. The maid-by-the-hour had been in and the apartment was in a shining order. But it was a too impersonal order; with a vague defiance in her gesture, Diane moved the position of some books and magazines on the table, poked the pillows on the divan as she passed it She went into the bedroom, to ths telephone. She'd sail Rufus now. "It’s DI Arden. I've something I want you to do. I can't ask you over the phone. Will you meet me for a cocktail? In half an hour?" Her friendly tone robbed the suggestion of any boldness. Rufus Kent answered after only the briefest hesitation. "If you'll make it Tony’s, next to the office here. Better meet me in front It isn't a pretty place.” It was no mote than a silt in the wall with a few wooden tables and chairs beyond the long bar. "A man’s hangout" Rufus .explained without any apology. “Want to stand at the bar, or sit down?" “Sit" Diane's eyes danced. He was testing her out She went on past the bar and a group of interested men to one of the tables, sat down at it with complete ease. XTo Bt

"Oh, it’s fill tbe silliest sort of nonsense, but it’ll be different—you DO play, sometimes, don't you?" "New and then I am not averse to forgetting my job!” That reminded her of the editorial he bad written. She straightened, demanded: "Rufus, how could you take the state's side in the trial—against Bill?" He was instantly as serious as she. "Two reasona One, I despise dishonesty in a man of Staples’ position. The other, the newspaper that pays me my salary happens to be of a different political persuasion from his, so naturally they don’t want any tooting far hie innocence." "But he’s innocent until—” Rufus' short tough checked her. Her face wrinkled in puzzlement. “Do you tiiink Bill believes he U innocent?” "Have you esked Bill that”” Rufus said, with some amuse menu "tea.” "Too bad, my dear.” “Bill hates dishonesty as much as you do!” ’ The quality of Rufus’ smile changed a little.

"Probably. Unless 1 saw an opening on another newspaper. Then I'd go high and mighty.” "I don't believe that," Diane' said quickly. Immediately she was a little confused. "I mean—not after what Bill bad to say about you!" But Bill hadn’t said anything like that. Rhe'd thought it out, herself. Rufus turned tbe stem of his empty glass slowly around in bis fingers. "I suppose moat of us like to think that if !t came to a showdown we’d stand up to our convictions against everything—keeps one's self-esteem bolstered up. But no one can be surn of It until the test to put to him.

She wondered, accepting It "We'll have them when you can come. It doesn’t make any difference to the rest of us." That, of course, ticketed the men of the crowd as Idlers, but she went on: "You met Danny Carver, at our apartment remember 1’ And K<«s*» Trowbridge—they never work when they can play golf.

She had not toid Bill about the movie; 4t was useless to try to tell him, for la hto concentration in ths trial, he would not bear a word of it Shs did not tell him, that night that she had met Rufus at Tony a. Ho came in later than usual. "I was with Gregory at the office," he explained. There were tight lines about his mouth, but leas lines ot fatigue and ot purpose. He carried a stuffed briefcase under hto arm. Dtane’s light kirn asked nothing from him. She left him at once to put their dinner on the table.
