Preaident Truman said: "We seek a peaceful world, a prosperous world, a free world, a world of good neighbors. living on terms of equality and mutual respect, as Canada and the United States have lived for generations."

Diagnose Cause of Sciatica

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D. THE pain of sciatica is one of the most clearly defined and best recognised In the whole list of aches that flesh Is heir to. In other words, there is no guesswork about It. If you have sciatica you are going to know it by the heavy, gnawing sensation which usually starts in the lower part of the back and follows the course of the great sciatic nerve down the back of the thigh and leg to the foot. Pressure Reveals Tenderness Pressure reveals that there is tenderness, not only over the lower part of the back, but also In the muscles of the thigh and leg. After rile condition has continued for some time, these musclgs may grow flabby and become smaller In slse. There may also be some disturbances of the reticles. The pein becomes worse when there is any movement which stretches the nerve. Thus, bending the hip with the knee straight Is painful, so that a patient with sciatica usually sits with his knees slightly bent. In practically all cases, when, the sciatica starts, there are pain and stiffness of the ower part of the spine, and many patients have suffered previous attacks of "lumbago.” Cause of Sciatica When it comes to the cause of sciatica, the pteturc is not so clear. One of the common causes

vary, a cordial invitation Is extended to you by the organisations to attend the ceremonies and join in singing the Star Spangled Banner. —-o—o Bond-A Month You can now buy U. 8. savings Ronds, easily, automatically, through your checking account! It's the new Bobd-a-Month Plan! The Bank buys the Bonds for you . . . charges them to your account! That'a all! So, all you folks who haven't been able to buy Bonds In an easy, automatic way ... all you who haven't been able to join the popular Payroll Savings Plan , . . will want to take advantage of the Plan! Remembc( ... the payoff is still U. 8. Savings Bonds! Still, four dollars back for every three you invest in Ronds . . . four hundred, -for every three hundred. In just ten years! All of which can add up to a tidy nest egg for the future! So, next time you're at the Bank . . . tell the teller you want to join the Bond-a-Month Plan. An easy, automatic saving plan . . . especially convenient for professional and business people! For buying Bonds easily, automatically . . . join the Payroll Savings Plan where you work or the Bond sMonth Plan where you bank. The Labor Bill As a successor to the Wagner Act, the Taft-Hartley bill, which has passed both houses of Congress with such majorities as virtually to insure its passage Into law even over possible presidential veto, is for all its strictness, a compromise bill. It forbids the "dosed shop" rule under which a company may not hire any worker who does not already belong to the prescribed union, while allowing the "union shop" which permlta an employer to hire non-union help on the condition that those hired join the union in question within a stipulated length of time. It altera the composition of the conciliation service and makes it an independent organisation, no longer under the Department of Labor. It also makes unions responsible for their acts in that they may be sued by employers or by other unions In cases of breach of contract, illegal strikes or boycotts. A sixtyday “cooling-off" period has been decreed, and jurisdictional strikes prohibited. Secondary boycotts will also be forbidden. If the Wagner Act erred on the side of leniency toward trade' unionism, then this bill may be aaid to err, if at all, on the other side. Yet that Is one of the natural swings of the pendulum of human activity by means of which, in a democracy, we progress toward an eventual golden mean.

tervertebral disks. The intervertebral disks are pieces of cartilage which act as cushions between the smsll bones of the spine. When they protrude they are out of place. According to Dr. Arthur S. Rundell Bankart of England, in about three or four out of each hundred cases of sciatica, profusion pf these disks is the cause. In making a diagnosis of protruded disk, an X-ray of the spine is of course helpful. When the X-ray Is taken, a substance known aslodlsed oil may be injected into the spinal canal to make the protruded disk more visible in the X-ray plate. Another common cause of sciatica Is arthritis of the lower part of the spine, that is, inflammation of the Joints In this area, Dr. Bankart thinks that this is the most common cause of sciatica, particularly of the type which so frequently afflicts middle-aged and elderly persons. I In this condition, also, X-ray ex-amlnation of the spine is helpful in making a diagnosis. In treating sciatica due to arthritis, rest in bed. perhaps the wearing of a cast to lesson movement of the joints, heat, massage and eiercise ail are of benefit. Actual inflammation of the sciatica nerve may occur tn occasional instances due to Infetlon and other causes, and of course this win lead to the pain of sciatica As a general rale, this is a mild condition •M rwu »
