There is no melody in March showers, but at least rain is preferred to snow. —-o o March is a long way from July and the results in New Hampshire are not conclusive. The( ejections of 1948 liave taught moet political observers to be cautious in making predictions. ——o——o ■ The poor of India sleep in the streets due to the lack of houses and thousands of people starve each year from the lack of food. In contest, the 60year old Nizam, j ruler of Hyderabad traveled to New Delhi with a retinue of 70 - servants and 11 of his 70 wives. Nitam is one of the wealthiest men in the world, a statement that will not be disputed when it is considered that he supports three score and ten wives. India needs education and a new deal. ■ —-—o o It is intreeeting to read of Albert N. Smith’s career in the postal service, climaxed now by his nomination to be permanent of Fort Wayne, suet seeding Clyde F. Dreisbach, who I retired a few months ago. Mr. Smith started work in the Fort Wayne oftieg in 1920 as a substitute clerk. He received many promotions and in 1934 was named stperintendent of mails, which position he held when nominated for postmaster. His appointment .should be popular .With the citizens of Fort Wayne and encouraging . to those who wish to make postal service their life’s edreer. 0- —SO J Sen. Robej-t Taft and Geri. Dwight Eisenhower Will nql* meet in another .presidential-candidate test un.ll April 15, when the New jtrfeiy primaries are held: Mr. Taft intends\to make a speaking tour of the great industrial state, with the ! hope of making a better. shodKng than he did in New Hampshire. On April 1, he will be pitted against Harold Stassen in / WL-ponsin and on April 8, the two candidates again will meet in the primary. If Taft is to get his presidential nomination bafc'tfwagon in.high gear, it should be in Illinois, where he is jsupported by the old guard Republican organization, largely dictated io by Col. McCormick of the Chicago Tribute. After that primar} Mr. Taft- will/definitely know if 1- ‘c continue as the party's ’ ?'e.-maid or really become the < convention bride.
Muscle Pressing On Nerves May Cause These Symptoms
By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. PAIN In the neck apd upper arm is sometimes unrelieved by the usual simple measures. Often, the cause of this type of pain is a muscle pressing on nerves and blood vessels. This particular painful disorder Is known as the scalenus ahtieus syndrome, so called from the name of the muscle, the scalenus antlcus. The pain results when this muscle compresses nerves and blood vessels to the arm at the point where they pass over the first and second ribs. Typical Symptom The pain in this case is steady and constant, and there is also a burning and tingling in the arms. A typical symptom is a tingling sensation like “pins and needles” in the little finger and part of the fourth finger. It usually takes heavy doses of sedatives to relieve the unceasing pain and discomfort. This type of disorder can usually be recognized by a difference In the pulses of the two arms. The pulse will be weaker in the painful arm owing to the pressure on the htwtf supplyifit ft.
The nation’s biggest manhunt is on for the gunman who shot and killed the Brooklyn salesman who identified Willie Sutton, notorious bank robber. Police believe thM ft pal of Sutton’s pulled the trigger that felled Arnold Schuster,; : 'h? law abiding citizen who trailed L the bandit and made possible his arrest. The murder of this mdn challenges the law -enforcement agencies in the country, including the FBI. As one newspaper remarked editorially, "The gunman who shot down Schuster, whatever his specific mptlve wad,: ft i an enemy of society.- His act was a threat to every honest mdn. It is the kind of crime which can dot ; go unpunished.” The FBI dealt drastically with Dillinger and his gang and the department should use similar \ tactics in running down the country’s latest and most brazen murderer. —i lack To Work:— The strike of railroad workers on. the New York Central line west of Buffalo has been settled with the court order against the striking railroad brotherhood. But the issues for which the work stoppage was tailed have not been settled and there is no asA '' - : i surance that there will be last* ing peace on the nation's railroads. It is impossible -to estimate what the stoppage cost in lost man hours, tons of defense' ■ t ?sill' Th production and dollars and cents: - The differences between the unions and management of the Railroad are not new ones. They have been contended before and settlement of them has dragged } out over a long period with the end far from sight. It is safe to assume that the owners of the railroads do not want further costly strikes which not only injure them financially but hurt the country as a whole. The workers arc equally patriotic and just as unhappy when work stoppagpij eat into their pay cheeks. The government cannot afford to risk the possibility of strikes in vital •». . ■ ■ ■’■ i iTsi industries. It; i ? jhj i. A Solution to the problem must exist. There is a fourth party it# b voiced in the dispute. That party is the public, those who depend on the railroads for travel and coin- • ■ jfliy munications and for their defense. The public has a right to expeat ; th-- unions and management ltd J find that solution and settle theh 'l’ ' «■" Hrt ll differences.
The best treatment for the: scalenus antlcus syndrome is a , Surgical operation which cuts the musele exerting the pressure arid thus removes the cause of the trouble. A condition in which an extra rib is present hi the neck may give pain and other symptoms similar to the above. This unusual condition can be detected with X-rays. An operation is often needed to bripg relief. Whenever pain in the shoulder and arm oecur, a careful study is required to determine which of the many possible causes is responsible. Then, adequate treatment may be carried out. : , QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS q !• t- : Mrs. M. H.: There has been a'L persistent swelling of my right foot since birth, mainly about the ankle. What could • cause this? Answer: The cause of this condition is possibly a lymph Vettel tumor in that area. This is not a serious condition. However, you should consult your physician tor awigrideie aha trettment.
