One lady recently took TRUAID three days and said afterward that she never would have believed such a “wonder medicine” existed. She says she could n’t raise her left arm more than a few inches. Rheumatic pains afflicted the muscles of her shoulder and arm. She could hardly move the fingers on her left hand. Now this lady’s rheumatic pains are gone since slie got TRU-AID and she says she can use her left arm as well as her right, in fact she says she simply blesses the day she got this medicine and she feels like an altogether different woman. TRU-AID is the new liquid formula containing three valuable medical ingredients. These Three Great Medicines, all blended into one, go right to the very cause of rheumatic and neuritic aches and pains. Miserable people soon feel different a'.l over. So don’t go on suffering!

Another, he said, is adoption of the Marshall plan to bolster potential U. S. allies in western Europe. Eisenhower left his army post to become president of Columbia University. Recently he took himself out of politics with the declaration that he did not want and would not accept a presidential nomination. In his last official statement he sought also to keep national security out of politics in a period of international political, social, and economic turbulence “more marked and more widespread than at any previous time in our generation.” “I have heard it said that, in 1948, major security projects have slight chance of passage because this is an election year,” Eisenhower said. “But,” he added, “our position of five, ten, fifteen years hence is being determined now.” Eisenhower left no doubt that he considers Soviet expansion the big threat to peace. If “our traditional friends in western Europe . . . become the pawns of totalitarianism,” he said, “America’s security would be in dire danger.” “We would find ourselves facing across narrowing ocean and Arctic barriers,” he said, “despotic colossus spread over and beyond the combined eurasian territories of the Roman empire, the Persia of antiquity, the Germanic

But conditions right now “are sufficiently turbulent,” he added, “that war might be visited upon the world without the impetus of planning or deliberate policy.” One isolated action, he said, could precipitate a conflict involving “nations whose whole desire is for peace.” In addition to universal training.

nical guidance. Mr. Truman sent to the house and seriate his second quarterly report on the American aid program for the two Mediterranean nations. In an accompanying letter he said that continued economic assistance for Greece will be provided through the European recovery program if it is approved by congress. But he added that ERP will not provide “for any additional military assistance required for Greece and Turkey, which will, at the appropriate time, be sought from the congress . . In connection with Communist activities in Greece Mr. Truman did not mention Soviet Russia by name. But his meaning was clear. “Greece has been subjected to ever-increasing pressure by the Communist minority, which, subservient to the foreign influences from which it draws support, would impose its will on the Greek people by force of arms,” the president said.
