(Last week /he United States aud Britain were “tough” to Russia over shooting down their planes, 'this week the Reds are using Sweet talk” on peace feelers. We’re in' a talking game. I \ -0- o—— j ’ According to Gen. Van Fleet American troops in Korea do not have enough ammunition to. meet a Communist offensive. If the general’s opinion is correct, why do we talk about sending aid toj the French army in Indochina? , 0 _o_ ; [ President Eisenhower will ! really meet the press in two en- : gageraents that he has accepted. He will attend the annual Grid* i iron dinner next month and in , May will be t,he guest of the jl "White House correspondents.

■ .‘hr ■ w 1 - By HERNAN N. BUNDESEH, M.D. IN checking on a person’s health, the doctor is apt to take a few drops of blood for a "red; blood count.” This Is to find out! •, If the person has anemia or deficient poloring in the blood. : ' Anemia may toe due to a llveri i disease, or diseases of the blood-; forming organs in the bone marrow and spleen. ’ Nutritional Type I r On the other hand, anemia may be of the nutritional type that is * i due to a deficiency of iron-con-taining foods In the diet This < may also occur when the stomach , tails to absorb from the food ber-| ' J:; tain substances needed for blood formation Os course, if the diet Itself is poor in these substances! \ , nutritional anemia can follow as a result ' > tn most cases, however, nutrl- ; tlonai anemia Is due to insufficient absorption from the stomach and intestines of factors' actually present tn the food. Certain minerals, such as iron! calcium, cobalt and copper, as well as certain vitamins, are necessary lor blood formation. ' f\' ’ Aaemia Teo Common , In the United States, anemia; due to poor nutrition or lack of the right foods is ail too common, showing that a balanced food intake is somewhat inadequate in this country. This type of anemia is found * mostly in persons suffering from loss pf appetite because of an Improper balance in the food in-
on their country. This is the opportune time to force the new Red regime to make peace in Korea on our terms. 0 0 Sen. Taft that Charles E. Bohlen will be confirmed as ii ambassador to Russia, despite the efforts of Senators McCarthy and Bridges to block the President’s nomination of the diplomat- Sen. Charles Tobey of Npw Hampshire, a veteran foreign relations member, pinned a charge on McCarthy and his colleagues! oppose Bohlen's confirmation, by saying, “they are willful men motivated by bitter hatred of Harry Truman and Dean Achesori”.' Because Bohlen served in the diplomatic service during, the Truman administration, McCarthy, has opposed senate confirmation of the man selected Eisenhowef for the ' important ambassadorship. I v"! -Co— Q Baseball In Milwaukee. The transfer of the Boston Braves national league baseball team to Milwaukee may be but •the first step in realigning the major leagues. Boston, already represented jin ’ the American league by the Sox, proved incapable? of supporting two league teams. - j ' < h ' , ?

When the leagues first formed, transportation between n* . ■ ‘ " j•'Ji I i• ■ v the east and the west was a barrier to having cities such as San • Francisco or Los Angeles .represented, But improvement in transportation has been great in /e---cent years and the problem is not \ nearly so disturbing .as it once 4a S .

Os all the the ones due to an iron deficiency are most frequently seen. Usually, these - people are helped immediately when they change to a diet rich in iron along with iron pills combined with high dosis of vitamin C, as well as other vitainlns and • minerals. . = - , I I.[ I Intestinal Intolerance Every once in a while spme persons do not respond to high doses of Iron, eVen though they have i ah iron deficiency These .people have an intolerance, to adequate doses due to some form of irritation to the stomach and intestines. In certain people, the tn- • ; testlnal tract is very sensitive to : Iron, or the intestines just will npt absorb this vital mineral. These people are definitely helped by injections of iron preparations in the veins. In' this way they receive adequate daily closes until their blood count U ; corrected. Then with a proper ; well-balanced diet containing all ! the necessary vitamins and min- . erals, recurrence may be avoided. QUESTION AND ANSWER P. A.: A cousin of mln? hu tuberculosis of the kidney.

stNursis Comely Mis, carol Marsden is en route irotr England to New York and Palin Beach, to an exchange job in; the smart Appleton apparel shops tn these cities. This is the result of kn award which she had won as a buyer for Felton's Department Store of London. Her employer, gay. young widowed \Thelma Felten and handsome bachelor Derek Appleton of the fatnoug' New York flrm. accompany Carol aboard the Queen Mary. Thelma, a shameless adventuress. had managed to wangle the Felton estate from her late doting, senile husband, so that now she owns the] Felton store. As thk'abtp sails Jwe find her in aer luxurious cabin, assort* tng her many bon voyage floral tributes. Among these she comes upon an ug r flowering cactus and the sight of it causes her to faint in tear. Recovering composure. Thelma pursues Derek Appleton relentlessly, making a play so- his favor. But that first night at sea. manages to eshape her long enouZ” to dance divinely with Carol Marsden Next day Carol is startled to And young Jason Felton aboard ship. On.-e more he recounts to her hi” grievances against the ruthless Thelma, who had unduly Influenced hit aged uncle to disinherit him, "to banish him from his job tn the Felton store. His post bad been filled by Mrs. Felton's pet puppet, the suave. Don Haskin. CHAPTER TEN C CAROL still didn’t believe Jason Felton’s presentations of loy e. She felt angry and at the same time hurt. Everything he said seemed too glib, as though it had been rehearsed beforehand. . 71 don’t see how you could have fallen tn love with me that night." •’You’re too mode s t, darling.” But the smile that accompanied the endearment was mocking too. “Don’t you know how lovely you looked that night? it was a wonderful gown. Let me see. What color was it?” ? “Pink, and I look dreadful in pink. I always have,” she snapped back at him. “Then why choose pink for the grand occasion?” “Mrs. Felton chose it for me. ? He nodded slowly. “That’s understandable. And the hairdo? It didn't look like you, somehow. I thought ycu weren’t very happy that night You remember 1 called you a reluctant Cinderella?" “1 felt self-conscious," she confessed. "And yet," she added, locking directly at him, "looking as I dio and feeling as 1 did. ybu say ypu fell ih love with me ?” She saw a taint flush rise to his forehead? It wasn’t easy to put Jason out of countenance, but now he looked' curiously shampfgeed. “Perhaps I felt a little sorry for you," he said quietly. I said, it doesn’t always add up to happiness to be a big success. But this trip is going to make it all worth while, you are enjoying yourself, Carol, and you must," he added gravely. She thought. If we could be friends - - - And then she saw Derek coming towards them across the Palm Lounge, big, assured, nice. You knew where you stood with Derek. Derek spoke to Carol. "I've been looking tor you. I want you to join us for a drink before dinner. That la," he glanced at Jason’s back ahd added hesitantly, "if you’re not engaged." Jason turned around and smiled. 'The name is Felton, it you remember, and Carol and I are not engaged yet,” he said pointedly.

We met at the staff dance. 1 didn't know you were on this ship, Felton.” "You wouldn’t. I’m in the tourist * Jason said, and grinned. Derek looked uncomfortable. “I imagine you And it more fun down there. Here we have to do stupid things like dressing up.” "And it’s cheaper down there,” Jason commented. He added, "I’m sure Carol would enjoy a drink with you at that magnificent, gleaming bar.” "You won’t join us?" berek suggested. V* "Thanxs, not tn these Clothes. Some night, if you'd care to, come down and have a drink with me. So long, \Cor the moment." He turned and disappeared down the companionway. Derek was frowning. "He’s a queer -character."

"It was ,41 joke—a poor joke, really." “Yes,” be agreed curtly. “But. so long as it isn't true, let’s' go to the bar. Thelma is waiting for us." Carol’s mind registered the tact that it was "Thelma” now. They entered the cocktail lounge with its gleaming circular bar, its small tables at different levels, its surging crowds, its air of gaiety, and saw Thelma at a table, j. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, 4 ! berek said anxiously as he drew out a chair for Carol. Thelma Felton smiled, T’ve had a grand time sitting here. You see so many odd people on board ship. It’s as though the shipping companies collected the most diverse types .and then threw them all together just for fun. A ship is like a nilge floating mixing pot and their joke fs that however badly the people mix none of them can get Sway from one another.” “Yps,” berek agreed.

"Mr. Felton said he Was going over Jo the States to take a job," she murmured“Oh . . . He told you what job it was?” i . "It’s something to do with cars, 1 believe/’ Carol murmured vaguely. ••That’s possible,” Thelma said, after a pause, retain w selling a number of cars to America at the present time.” But she didn't look convinced.
