Don't Neglect Kidney T rouble
By Herman N. Bundesen, M. O. THE work of the kidneys ix no important to the whole body that no disorder affw tjng them can be safely neglected. One of the most common of such conditions and on* which can occur at any age la pyelitis. or inflam mation of that part of the kidney where the urine collects before it empties into the hfadd<-r How Germa Are Carried Germs causing the inflammation may be brought to the kidney ■from xome other part of the body through the blood stream or they may paw upwards from the blad der. But in either cam. according to Dr. Joaeph C. Birdsall of Philadelphia. they do not usually be coma entrenched in the kidney Itaelf unless there is aome blocking in the urinary tract, that is, either in the bladder or in the tulies which lead to it from the kidneys. A diagnosis of pyelitis Is made by such symptoms as a burning sensation when the bladder is emp tied, and frequent emptying of the bladder. Fever la often present. An eiaminatlon of the urine shows the presence of mapy white blood cells. Any Age Pyelitis may occur in persons of any age. it is more frequent in girl babies than in boy babies. in such cases, the disorder usually starts with chills and fever, and the temperature may go as .high as 102 to IM degrees. Hickpegs te th* stoxaeh and vomiting gra oftea praaaat Const 1 pet ion er diarrhea nuv also occur in older

Consolidation of county homes should be carried out In the state, for no doubt there are more cases similar to the Lawrence county situation. — o —o- — The city of Goerlitz in Russianoccupied Germany has been cut in two It works out that the city of 90,000 people is half German and half Polish, on one side lie the farm lands which would normally feed the city, on the other side the industrial and residential zone. Traffic between the two Is possible only over an automobile bridge, ihe railroad bridge being down. To cross requires a Polish visa. Russian military permission, and Soviet approval. Water supply is one one side, ga- on the other, and a plumber must have both Berlin's ami Warsaw's permission to shut off a water connection And ini this country we struggle with traf , fl- problems. ——o o I I If Russia expected, ail her satellites to take with a good grace her refusal to co-operate with the Marshall plan, she has been surprised. The people there are dis gruntled, and are not backward in expressing their feeling They realize that any general improve ment in Europe's condition will be i reflected in a better life for them, and thus are against any further division in European affairs. They knof that they are hungry and that Russian policy has acted to prevent their being fed. Indoubt edly much the same attitude might be observed in Poland. Czechoslovakia. Finland, and other Rus stun dominated countries. Russia may find that she has bitten off more than she can chew. o o President Truman is a thrifty individual who can figure out sen sible business deals for the country. Fidlowing the floods which struck the middlewest and western states, causing an estimated dam age of some 750 million dollars, the President advocates that congress take up flood legislation. Mr. Tru man favors a long range program, covering ten years, during which time reservoirs and floodwalls should be erected along the Mississippi, .Missouri ami other rivers that go ram punt in the spring. The loss to the American farmers from erosion alone is estimated at a half billion dollars The best top soil is washed to the ocean, depleting the fertility of farms in the flood > d area, the President emphasized Mr. Truman proposed the harnessing of the flood waters for productive use which he said will return the government a large share of its original investment.
< Idldren In adults, when pyelitis occurs, there usually is aome inflammation also of other parts of the kidney This condition fends to occur especially during pregnancy or during child bearing time. In treating pyelitis, the patient should lie put to lied al complete rest and given a diet containing no highly seasoned food*, lie should be given plenty of fluids by mouth, and If necessary the fluids may be injected under the skin. Constipation. If present, should lie corrected. kVequent emptying of the bladder and sweating should also be encouraged. Hot. wet packs and the use of aspirin are helpful, according to Dr. Birdsall. A search should he made for any infection in the teeth, tonsils or sinuses. and such infections, if found, should he clean'd up since they may lie contiibuting causes for the pyelitis. Various drugs may lie used to overcome pyelitis, depending upon the type of germ producing the difficulty. For example, mandelic acid is used for liacilluria or infection due to bacilli. Sulfonamide drugs and penicillin are helpful in,those Infections which are produced by streptococci and staphylococci. An X-ray examination may be made to determine If there is some blocking of the flow <4 the urine due to a kidney atone or other cause If such a condition is tuuud. operative treatment may be required to get rid of it.

(I'P) —CIO United Automobile Workers offi rials today hailed the collective bargaining election results at the Alli* Chalmers Co as the “answer to the Taft Hartley bill” The CIO claimed a victory in the election even though the results were inconclusive because the UAW failed to poll a majority by 92 Votes. , The LAW CIO won 3.61" votes 'to 1.913 for an independent union and 1.6*1 for the AFL United Auto Workers. -Eighty-one worker* voted for no union and 217 voles were challenged.

CHATTER THIRTY-NINE BILL CAME very soon after. He put a box of flowers down at the foot of the bed. bent and kissed Diane, a long kiss on the lipa She would not lift her eyes to lie face, to see the disappointment she was convinced must be written there. She held to his hand, “Have you seen the baby?” “Not yet. I’ll have a look at it when I go out. Everts says it's perfect, feet and hands and ail that, and it’s enough to know that, isn't it? And that you've come through all right!” He had not gone home and slept as the nurse had told him to. Overstrained nerves and his instinctive habit of saying little when his feelings were deepest, gave his voice a strained, clipped edge, Diane dropped his hand. “I'm going to call her Nellie." “Nellie? Why Nellie?" “It was my mother's name." “That’s so. But wasn’t it really Helen or Helena or Eleanor? Nellie's a nickname.” “No. Nellie.” .She added: "It's my baby—" “It is, darling!” Bill said with fervor. He put his lips to her throat. “And you may call it anything you like. I wish I'd known you had it in mind, though; Mother inked me about it. She’s telephoning ’round tor me. She sent her love and she'll be in to see you after a day or so. She insists that I stay there until you come home so I went to the apartment, put it in order and locked up—" Diane realized, now, the tirednew in his voice. She glanced fully at him. “Bill, you look a lot worse than I feel! Was it terrible for you?” He laughed. “Pretty had. But It’s over. Doctor Everts says you’ll be sitting up in ten days, home by the end of the second week. Say, Di, mother suggests we get Annie Harkness to take care of the baby. She isn't a graduate nurse, but she's good. Mother had her for mc. Ami a woman who’s older like that would take a lot of responsibility off your shoulders—" “We don't have to decide it Just now, do we?” Diane countered. He thought she was exhausted. He said quickly, a little contritely: “No, you’re to rest, not think of anything." She had expected to be bored by her enforced stay in the hospital, to hate the fussing over her. But she found it exciting; the nurses, rustling in, Doctor Everts on his calls, the internes, even the cleaning women, only emphasized the im[K»nance of this miracie of the Flowers came, box after box, cards, gifts. Seemingly the whole world wanted to pay tribute. One afternoon lx»is opened the door wide enough to toss a tissuewrapped package to the bed. "Scared to come closer, Di!

president of lhe UAW-CIO. was confident thst enough of lhe 247 challenged ballots would be allowed his union to give it a victory. He said at least 91 of them were cast by union officials and members of the company Bred for alleg edly Illegal tactics in the long strike ended earlier this* year. He skid the vote results gave the Aills-Chalmers worker s "answer to the Taft-Hartley bill and the Na Honal Association of Manufacturers. "'.Most of the provisions of the Taft Hartley bill were worked out during the recent strike," he eaid “The vote shows that despite lhe most vicious tardies, lhe company could not stamp out legitimate, fighting unionism from the hearts and minds of Its workers." Thomas took perwonal charge of the union strategy during the latter months of the 328-day dispute which ended when the UAW went back io work without a contract. He said the vote “result shows workers have repudiated Red baiting and union-busting" and would “encourage organized labor throughout the country to intensify its political action campaign against the Taft-Hartley bill and other national labor legislation.” Meanwhile. Walter E. Petersen, head of the lnde|>endent union which was formed as result of a Iwk to-work movemen' during the strike, said he was "not worried about the election outcome.” He said he expected the national labor relations board to hold a runoff election rather than pass on the individual challenged ballots. Nl.ltß officials who conducted the election said they would announce plans pertaining to the < ho I lenged ballot* later b|it admitted that a run oft election was possible. O— — Information For Reissuing Bonds hi answer to inquiries, Adams courtly veterans' affairs officer, Dwight Arnold, announces that veterans who have lost their terminal leave bonds should write to the following address regarding a reissue; Chief. Division ot fxtans and Currency, U. S. Treasury Department, Washington 25, D. C. Mr. Arnold emphasized that it is absolutely neces-ary for the veteran writing to that address to
ness that it was over and both Diane and the baby so well. Bill s father held her hand, spoke proper words of congratulation. Paula came, kissed her. “I’m glad you're calling the baby for your mother. It's pleased Joe.*' Diane saw tears in Paula’s eyes as there had been in her father’*. Bill came in every evening, telephoned to her every morning. But Diane’s high moment was when the nurse laid tits baby beside her to feed. Then the white-walled room became a cloister, shutting them in together. The first time she had felt some terror at being left alone with so helpless a bit of humanity, but that was soon lost in her joy of possessing it Soon she dared tighten her arm about it, hold the small hands in hers, cuddle the pink feet, bury her lips against the sweet-smelling golden fuzz of hair. The warmth of its body one with hers, the baby would sleep and Diane would lose herself in blissful dreaming. No troubled thoughts could touch her now; they belonged to a world outside this she held in the curve of her arm. They belonged to that other self she had been. 'lbis self, bom with the baby, had nothing to do with them. It was, she thought, one still afternoon, the metamorphis she had expected to happen to her when she married Bill. She smiled, remembering that Paula had said It was good tor a girl to have a baby because then she had something to think about besides herself. She had Nellie, now. It would be NeUie first, always. She believed she was thinking of the baby when Bill again brought up the matter of engaging Annie Harkness and she opposed it "If Nellie should be sick—we ought to have a trained nurse, at least for a while, Bill.” "Annie'd know what to do, as well as any trained nurse.” With patience Diane marshalled other arguments. "It’s very important to keep up the hospital training—Annie's old-fashioned, she’d want to rock Nellie!” "You can tell her not to,” said Bill, as patient as she. "Bill, don’t think I'm stubborn or just want to have my way! I really feel very firm about this.” Firm, because she was thinking of Nellie. “I want to take Miss Tierney home with us. She’s that pretty nurse who came in yesterday when you were here. She adores Nellie —says Nellie’s the bestbehaved baby in the nursery. And it's that training that Is so important- ” He yielded, but not without saying: "If you don’t know anything more about her than that she’s pretty—we know everything about Annie!” J. Emmet came again and tossed a formal looking document Into Diane's hands. ’There’s that house you wanted! Though why is beyond ms. It’ll fall to ptocss, came a strong wind,”

"But Dad—” Diane looked only startled. "I told you I'd give you something when the baby was born, didn't I?” There was some hurt in his voice, and coming into ius eyes. She put her arms around his neck, (lulled his head dou n to hers. "You're an old precious! But you spoil me so. A little gift! Just an estate!" "You ean have more, any time you say the word,” he muttered. She unfolded tlic paper when he went away. Its legal phrasing was bewildering, but she gathered from it that Diane Tamil Arden was owner, now, of “said land and buildings thereon.” She had thought of a little boy that afternoon! But -a passion of love swept her—Nellie would swim in that swimming hole, swing from those trees, climb the sheds, run down the long lane, over the meadows! Grow sturdy in that pure air—"l’m thinking of Nellie,” she said to Bill, that evening. The deed was in Bill’s hands, fie had read it and she had told him of the afternoon she had found the house, of how much she had liked it, speaking a little urgently against the stiffening she saw on his face, the way his fingers crushed the paper in them. “And it would be wonderful for the baby, out there. I’m thinking of her!” "You know how I feel about not living on your father! You might have made that clear to him!" "Bill, I couldn’t refuse It!" But she could not tell Bill why. It concerned her father too intimately. She finished: “It Isn’t so far out that you'd mind the driving. Only a little more than eight miles—" Bill put the deed down on the bed. "It happens that three miles out the Duell Road is the county line. If I run for District Attorney I have to keep my residence in this county. So, Di, I’m afraid you must rent this newly acquired property of yours, or return it to your father.” He smiled in his relief at this turn In the issue. "Oh,” said Diane, regretfully. Then: "But if you don’t run?” "Not a chance of that. It's a? good as settled." But Bill was gone In a few minutes and the baby In and there was no room in Diane’s heart for disappointment -I guess you’re glad you’re going home tomorrow,” said the nurse when she gathered up the baby. ‘ Diane did not answer with the promptness most patients gave to the amiable question. Her eyes swept the small room a little wistfully. Then she said: "As long as I have the baby!” The nurss thought that was a queer way to put it. and from a £rt g wh0 ’ lt »ud everyv (To Ito ConttaoedC
