Postmaster General Summerfield, noted as a super auto salesman, has come up with a quick way to get rid of Democrat post--masters. He intends to circumvent .the Civil Service law by ordering* “tougher” examinations for postmaster applicants. There are about 1,700 postmasterships on the platter and Summerfield intends to dish them out among deserving members, of his party. Many a congressman quivers at the thought of being embroiled in a post office fight. ■ 4 ' —o- . .. - r President Eisenhower and'Secretary of State Dulles, supported by Sen. Taft, have accepted the challenge of Sen. McCarthy to fight through for the confirmation of Charles Bohlen, as American ambassador to Russia. McCarthy has not really made a case for himself and it appears that the administration will win out. Then, . - the' Wisconsin senator will lay his-plans to even the score, which may develop into an all out fight against *th|£ President.

Last year the Adams County Memorial hospital and hospitals in other Cities that setved local persons were supplied with nearly 400 pints of blood, used in transfusions. The commercial rate for transfusions is said to run"|s/h>gh as $25 per cast. How- ' ever, the Red Cross, estimates the cost of gathering blood at only $0.05 per pint, which lower figure means a saving of approximately $2400 for local patients.

Loose Blood Clot In a Vein Cdllsjfor Prompt Treatment

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. WHEN a clot farms inside a blood vessel it may prove f very dangerous, and medical advice should be sought without delay. Usually, such a clot is attached to the blood vessel wall., This happens most often in the Veins, the vessels which bring the blood. Ijack toward the hearty When one of these! clots gets loose, it may travel into a blood vessel of the lung, stopping the Circulation to the part of the lung that it_. reaches. This is known as an embolism. Without proper and brompt treatment, a loosened clot which reaches the lung may prove fatal in some cases. • - . There are many conditions that can cause a clot to form in a blood vessel. Sometimes it may happen while a person is lying in bed recovering from an operation. This is one of the reasons many doctors now attempt to get a patient up early after surgery. Women who are kept in bed too long after childbirth may sometimes develop this complication. Patients kept in bed;for long periods because of other conditions may also be subject to clotting of blood within the veins. Among other frequent causes are fractures, paralysis, old age and varicose veins. ' i The veins affected arte more often those lying deep in the legs and the lower abdomen. Preventive Measures In order to prevent blood clots

I- I — This year the Jewish Passover seasori on March 31, during the same period that Christians Will observe as, Holy Week. \ The Passover commemorates the deliverance of the of Is-\ rael fitani their bondage in Egypt. The holiday is celebrated with special prayers and rituals. During the eight days of its observ l ance, jews will eat no bread. Instead, the matzoth, unleavenecj ■ bread,; a reminder of the kind their forbears took with Jhem on their bight into the desert, be foupd on their tables. It might be with the two sacred seasons oj?cnring (Simultaneously, for Jews a|nd Christians, each in the manner prescribed by their own beliefs, to pray that t]£< time will come when persecution, because of religion will pnd and that freedom will be enjoyed fc by all men throughout the world.\ i — ; —o- o—l— ' -j II ' ' Young In Government: A Republican offshoot of a Democratic i tree is President Eisenhower's choice fcr the Civil Service Commission. This*Hs Philip Young, son of Qwen D. Young, former chairman of the board of General, Electric. In the 1920’s and early Owed \oung was one of the top figures of; American in- , dustry and public service. His great achievement came in 1929, when he advanced the Young Plan for adjusting German reparations in World War I. 7 , \ Owen Young was one of the | few big business figures who was ' a Democrat. This gave him strong backstage support for the prrisidential nomination in 1932, which, however, went to FDR. Iri the past decade he has been consid- • ■ ■ ’ i ered a Republican. His son. Philip is recorded as a Republican, Like others, he,filled niany\ posts ip the government in . the 1940’5. siifce 1948 he has been dean of Columbia University’s graduate school of business. Now he returns to public life, and- may achieve political prominence. ■A- v ■ \ ;

from forming, surgical patients should be kept more or less activ? as soon as possible after surgery. A heart patient, according to many physicians, in most cases should move his legs around in bed as much as possible without putting any undo effort on his heart. ' 1 li ' Before a serious operation, it may at times be better to operate on any varicose i veins first, if their condition is severe, to prevent the clotting of the blood in these J' Anti-Clotting Drugs Once a clot has formed in the legs', anti-clotting drugs can be given. Heparin, a drug that prevents clotting of blood, is very helpful in many cases. This drug usually has to be given by frequent injections in a hospital. J, In certain cases, tying off the veins in which the clot has formed-Will prevent a loose clot from reaching the lungs. Injections which deac/.m a part of the nervous system known as the sympathetic syj ;m, are sometimes of further t ?lp. So as time pasc , real progress is being made in p eventing blood clots from formin£*ln the veins. QUESTION AN.O ANSWER H. O. F.: My baby, who is six months old, has a uulse rate of one hundred and thirty beats a minute. Is this dangerous? Answer: i, No. Babies usually have a much faster puise rate than adults, This is perfectly I normal

CHAPTER thirteen FOR THE \next two daysthe sea was smooth and blue, 'like the c.uise advertisements you , read. The great ship steamed on. The Captain, urbane, smiling, made his rounds; the officers, the;personnel, the stewards each did their part as though their work was a pleasure. Each night before rdinnef the nead waiter lined the dining-room stewards up. inspected t h e m as though ne were the general of ani .army, telhng\them how proud tfiey" should be to serve? on this great liner. He expected not only perfect service. but wholehearted cooperation. He made each one feel as important as the Captain dn the bridge. It Was good psychology ana it got results. Carol had never telt so well-cared-for— or so gmgly unhappy. p ■ V Perhaps she was a little lonely. People on a giant snip like the Mary don’t make triends in the easy way they do on smaller ships. The trip is too short, there are too many planned entertainments. and, perhaps, tor no good reason, they are al! a little suspicious of one another. Thelma Kept Derek occupied; she was always wanting her deck chair to be moved or to be taken to the bar or to the movies, touna some friends on board; she entertained at cocktails inner suite, where Derek acted as host; or these triends would, be entertaining her, to drinks of to supper m the Verandah Cate, Derek was her escort. Carol would have made the extra woman. Carol didn't know whether Derek tell tn with her; plans because he wanted to or because \he was too nice not to. On the few occasions they talked together, ne seemed puzzled and worried by the situation. . ’ "1 don’t seem to be seeing anything ot you, Carb I,*’ he complained. r s They were standing together on the games deck by the railing. They nad just finished a set of deck tennis and .were cooling off. The breeze lifted Carol’s lightbrown hair off her brow, blew back the woolen sports dress she was wearing, showing the outline of her slim young body.

Thelma’s a wonderful girl, out. yes, she keeps a fellow busy.He gave tier ai faintly wry smile and added quickly, “Naturally, 1 enjoy being with her. As 1 said, she’s a wqhdertul girl* and she isn’t used to doing things for herself.

By the embarraSsed flush that rose uip under his light tan she knew she nad hit the nail upon the head. The other night she had heard Thelma describe her to him as "a dreary little thing.” “Only because you are so very young," ne said quickly. "Nonsense. I’m not very young at al|," she said, feeling ■niddcnly angry. "I’ve been earning my living for the past* six years. You can’t do that, Derek, and remain a child." ••No, of course not; but—l can only explain it by saying she docs feel responsible for you," he evaded lamely. * , She looked away from film out to sea. Her cheeks were (burning and tears were very near her eyes. "You’re not upset?" he asked in a deep, concerned voice. “1 was just trying to explain. Thelma is my guest—l mean, the guest of my firm.? / | > She turned to face him. The color was still high in her cheeks. “I had the idea / Was the guest of your firm, too, Derek." His flush deepened. “Qf course, Carol. But, as 1 said, you’re younger, and she seems to rely on tne. But as soon as we get home It will be different."

A man like Jason . . booking down into the foam-ridden sea, she remembered the hard glint tri his eyes when he naa r spoken ot Thelma, and the way ms lean hands had clenched on his Knees.
