The milk intake remains high which after all is the cheapest bottle of fluid on the market. England's suggestion that the United States should distribute 12 billions of its gold among other nations of the world, sounds as feasible as asking the millionaire to share his bank account with the fellow across the tracks. We built Fort Knox to keep our gold and that’s where it should stay, although we admit we know little about the monetary matters. o o Young Philip Willkie. son of the 1940 Republican presidential nominee, has entered the race to get his party's nomination for the congressional post in the tenth district.

Since 1938 no new prisoners have been sent there, and those on hand were to be returned to France.

• Don't Invite Ear Infection

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D. Where the ears are concerned "hands off” is a good rule. To attempt to get wax out of the ear with the finger-nails, matchsticks or hairpins is a bad practice’ and one which frequently causes infection, which may be serious, In the external ear canal. Usually such infection takes the form of boils, called furuncles. Though picking at the ears is the chief cause, there are others. Swimming in contaminated water or pools is one of them. Diabetes is sometimes a contributing cause, as are fatigue and improper diet. When this infection first develops, there is usually discomfort in the ear, followed by pain. The pain becomes continuous and is even quite severe. Movement of the external ear and of the jaw seems to make the pain worse. The area around the opening of the ear canal is tender on pressure, and 'there may also be some swelling of the tissues. The hearing, as a rule, is pot affected to any great degree. The boil may break open by itself and discharge a thick, bloody material. When this happens, the pain, as a rule, is relieved. In view of the fact that symptoms produced by a boil in the external ear canal ars n»u c b lifce those of the middle-ear ujtect’.'tn. I it is important that the ear be care-1

and the rest wilfte out by the end of the year. Its blazing heat made Devil’s Island a dreadful inferno. . Escape to the mainland meant death in the jucgle. This island, off the coast of Wench Guiana, was e» f chosen for a Napoleon j 111 when the idea was that if a jail were oaly made terrible enough, ’ criminals would be deterred. Many Americans used to hold this view; early in the 19th century Connecticut pointed with pride to the abandoned mine which housed its . felons, and believed that its horrors had a good influence. Nowadays people know better, our views have changed. o o Judge J. Fred Fruchte The unexpected death of Judge : J. Fred Fruchte shocked this community and brought sorrow to an unlimited circle of friends of the distinguished jurist who in typical American fashion climbed from farm boy to the highest elective office in the county. Judge Fruchte's high respect for public office was attested in his unswerving fulfillment of his official duties. Although known to himself that he had a heart ailment, he remained at his post and with the opening of the new term of court last Monday was on the bench each day this week, being stricken again with an attack yesterday. From farm boy, being a product of Preble township, where his father was also born, the ambitious youth furthered his education, taught school in his township and in this city. He then launched into a successful ebusiness and political career in this county. He was admitted to the bar in 1964. In the period prior to World War I and the early twenties, when Decatur was recognized as the leading horse market between - Chicago and Pittsburgh, Judge I Fruchte was affiliated with this - reputable enterprise. > Alviays interested in education, Judge Fruchte served as a member of the Decatur School Board. His successful political career began with his election as Prosecuting Attorney, which post he filled for two terms ending in 1919. He served his city as city attorney during three administrations. As judge of the Adams Circuit Court, he assumed office in 1939, having begun his second term in 1945. He gave fatherly attention to all juvenile cases brought before the court. " Judge Fruchte was a Christian in thought and action and lived an exemplary life. In fraternal and church circles he was respected and honored. An active member of the lodge, Judge Fruchte was a past chancellor of Kekionga Lodge No. 165 of the Knights 6f Pythias. Our heartfelt sympathy is extended to his family as they mourn the loss of their dearest companion, counselor and friend.

fully examined to tell which of J these disorders is present. An examination of the ear drum should be carried out since, if there is an infection in the middle ear the ear drum will be reddened, while it is not changed by infection in the outer ear canal. Treatment of the ear canal infection consists of cleansing the area, perhaps with a piece of gauze dipped in alcohol. Then a piece of gauze which has been dipped into such things as glycerin or magnesium sulphate, may be inserted as far into the ear as possible. This is left in place for twenty-four hours and then removed. >•? This treatment may help to reduce the swelling and pain. At the end of twenty-four hours the gauze is removed, the ear cleaned; and another piece of gauze put in. The furuncle may break open of itself, as mentioned before and then all that is necessary is to ■ keep the ear canal clean. In some few cases, it may be for the physician to cut open the infected area. Once such infection it tends to act like a bad show up again, particularly in people who are in a rundown condition. In some instances instead of one boll, there will be many. To get rid of tfcis severe infection it I stay be necessary to give penicillin I by injection into a musle.

'92 Club' I Formally Disbanded | Indianapolis,- Sept. 5 —(UP) — | The month-old “92 club,” composed of Republican county chairmen, was | dead today. Following a meeting attended by only seven G. O. P. | county chairmen, Howard county chairman Ralph Yates of Kokomo I said: “A motion was presented and passed that efforts to organize a ’92 club’ be discontinued.” Organization of the club was started a month ago without the sanction of the Republican state committee. Club workers said county chairmen needed “some sort of an organization that will have a chance against the boeses in the state committee.” TRUMAN VOWS (Continued now Fajft i) ter us in our constant effort to build the organization that the world needs so badly. “Furthermore, we must keep ever in mind that the United Nations was not intended to settle the problems arising immediately out of the war but to maintain international peace after just settlements have been made. “The United Nations was not born fully developed by the signing of its charter in San Francisco. It will take steadfastness of purpose, unremitting toil and infinite patience to achieve our goal.” The United States, Mr. Truman said is resolved to support the UN | with all its resources. “The difficulties that we have encountered in this early phase in the life of the United Nations have not discouraged us,” he said. Mr. Truman said the Ipng friendship of Brazil and the United Stat■es demonstrates to the world how freedom-loving nations can bind their interests through common principles and common ideals.

The Nfcmmunist deputies sat coldly sßcnt while the rest of the chamber cheered. Putting the fate of his com; munist-free cabinet up to the assembly for the fifth time since January, Ramadier appealed grimly to French workers to halt a new wave of strikes and demr onstrations. He said they were threatening gravely the stability of the franc and cutting under the authority of the republic. The communist-dominated lab j or leadership called for a 98-min-ute protest strike to halt all Paris transport, followed by a mass demonstration on the historSc, Champs De Mars, ‘or field of 'War, under the shadow of the Eiffel tower. Police threw up barricades around Ramadier’s office and key govelrnment buildings, and corf

doned off the assembly with strong reinforcements against any manifestations during the confidence vote. The double barreled test ot Ramadier’s strength was based on France’s pinching economic crisis. The strike was in protest against spiraling costs of living and the dwindling bread ration. The confidence vote was on the government's proposal for a $67,200,000 coal supply, without! which Ramadier said another spurt in prices was inevitable.
