Long live the Queen I O 0 To be the mother of a Princess and a Prince and Queen of Britn ain, Elizabeth has done very well in her 27 years. 4 0 0 A Los Angeles newspaper runs a.cartoon of the Republican timetable, with the Elephant marking up the tax reduction train, “A year or two late”. 0 Q. .

Advance in Polio ‘‘reatment
By HERMAN N. BU.BDESEN, M.D. AS the polio seascei approaches, we can be thankful for definite progress toward preventing this disease, and for improved treatment If it’s contracted. It has been reported that development of a vaccine is well on the way to practical usefuli ness, but several years may be required for its coanplete development. It has also been shown that a portion of the blood serum, known as imnrune globulin, can make polio attacks less likely to produce paralysis and in some cases temporarily prevent them. For Epidemic Areas As yet, there is not enough immune globulin to treat tine entire child population, so it is being held to be used in critical* areas of epidemics. In this way it will not be used indiscrimlnate'jr, and the disease can be controlled on a nationwide basis. Until we have a final cure for ~- polio, this disease will continue to leave many children crippled. The prevention of deformities has had varying success. Treating Muscle Spasm _ The drug known as curare has shown good results in treating this muscle spasm. Curare has a remark! ,ble property of relaxing muscle tightness. In fact, the same drag in a less purified foiun was used by the American Indians as an arrow poison Uo
want to pull away from us and apparently little good will exists among European nations for our policies. Much of this disaffection is due to Sen. Taft’s statement on the United States and Uncle Sam appears not- to have a friend in *the world. In these trying times, support shpuld be given the President, for he is the head of the government who must deal with other nations. One thing is sure, - the United -States has lost prestige in the diplomatic field. -i—o President Eisenhower favors loaning Pakistan 1,000,000 tons of wheat. Pakistan is in the midst of a drought and unless help comes ffonj some source a famine is inevitable. A United States food i f survey mission reports that Pakistan is faced with a serious economic crisis. Its leaders need assurance of a supply of food for the next twelve months as they work out a long range solution for the problem of food shortages. Aside from the strategic reasons for aiding the country there is a moral one. The people there are hungry. Americans have never ' been able to see any people in the throes of a famine without wanting to help. j—|-0 0 A million-dollar hospital was dedicated in Marion, Illinois, last Saturday. Built in crosS-shape, the hospital is equipped with a modern laboratory, laundry, kitchens and other features fopnd in buildings of this nature. The hospital fund was created by a $25,000 gift from a Marion business man, followed by a similar donation from the Elks lodge in that city. The federal government contributed 38.3 percent,' the state of Illinois 11.8 percent and the county in which Marion is located paid the balance through a 20-year bond issue. The hospital will contribute as much to the progress of Marion as any public institution in the city, which in 11950 had a population of 10,459.

paralyze the muscles of their enemies. In polio, [curare relaxes the muscle spasms by causing a mild, temporary, partial paralysis. In polio patients who are recovering, injections of curare are given twice a day. 1 .Gradual Stretching Along with this, the muscles are stretched gradually so the amount of stretching is increased on each succeeding day. Muscle shortening, which is otherwise almost inevitable, can thus be avoided. Usually, this treatment of muscle stretching is carried out by a person trained in physical therapy and the rehabilitation of crippled arms and limbs. If this treatment is undertaken under the physician’s directions ’ early enough in polio cases, many times casts and braces are unnecessary. Many patients can be saved from operations to correct deformities Later on in life. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS S. D.: My boy, age seven, has been urinating frequently and in large amounts for the past year. What can be causing this? Answer: From your description, it would seem that your boy is suffering from a form of pituitary disturbance ‘known as diabetes insipidus. This causes a person to urinate a great deal and often. Usually, the giving of pituitary hormones helps this disease.

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX I “WHAT happened?” Terry said again. I sighedi “I’ll sound like one of those off-and-on neon sign*; That's the way it’s been. I was off more than I was on, I think. The first was at Janey's apartment, about eight this morning. Someone wialloped me from behind and left me there.” ’ “Who?” "A guy in a tweed suit. With that description I’ll find him easy. I met a red-head there, a girl who works at the Star. She was there to pick up a book of Janey’s. a book in which Janey kept her facts and figures on the dope ring. We found no i book. The red-head is an addict and needed help. I made a deal with her. For cash, she told her cpntact that the last stuff he gave her made her sick t I tailed the contact toj the Star where he picked up a pair of hoods named Moore and Eddie. They all went to the red-head’s place, took her to Ellertoh’s. I saw that I’d put the red-head in a spot, so I went in to get her. I got walloped again. They made the red-f head talk, land I got socked again. They took me to a joint in Gary,, and I climbed out a basement window and got away. That’s it.” “What happened to the re d< head?" ; . I shrugged. “Nothing good.” I had left out the facts that would make Terry an accessory after the fact to a pair of murders. We were silent a moment. Then she said, “Bill, I’m scared.” “Why?” “Ellerton will be after you now. He knows you’ve established his connection with the dope business.” “Yeah, he’ll be after me,” I said. “That makes it even.’.’ “Will you listen to me?”. “Sure.” “You can’t handle it alone. I know EU&rton, he’s tough and ruthless. Mpore and Eddie missed tonight, but they’ll get you the next time.” I grinned, feeling very smart. “Want to bet?” “Be serious. You’ve got to prove your case against Ellerton.” "I’m trying to.” “You need help. There’s a mayor's commission set up here in town, headed by a lawyer named Morrison. It’s an honest outfit. They’re trying to break up the hoodlum-politician love affair, and they need the kind of information you can give them.” , “You’re sure Morrison is honest?” “I’d swear to "Maybe I’ll give him a try.” "You must,” she [said eagerly. “He?ll take | over, and you can clear out befofe Ellerton’s I goons knock your brains out.” “Oh, no,” I Said. "I’ll give Morrison a chance. But if he files my story in a bottom drawer, I’ll be on hand to get back into .the ball game.” I "“Bill, iyou’re crazy.? “Let’s don’t talk iibout it any more,” I said. “I’ve Igot to finish this job, and you know it.. You want to be real helpful, you can draw me a bath.” 1 “Do you want to stay here tonight?” I looked around, squinting. “Well, it’s not a bad little joint.” ■ “ . r Tlp ‘H I ■ .■'

She looked at her hands. “This is all a joke to you, isn't it? It strikes you as highly amusing that I—oh, forget it.” "No,I it’s not a joke. Believe 1 me,. I think it’s fine.]* - - - She smiled slightly. “For . your passionate eloquence, you., get a bath.” I soaked for half an hour in hot sudsy water, feeling, the tiredness flow out of me. Then I stood under the cold shower for a few moments. When 1 cimc out, holding a towel around my waist, I saw that Terry had left two clean sheets, a blanket and pillow on the long deep couch. She wasn’t in sight. > “What’s the idea?” I said. There was no answer. : ' I walked through the dining room into her bedroom. She was lying with her arms outside the covers, staring at the ceiling. ’ “I thought you’d need a rest,” she said. “You’re very elite.” “You had a hard night, so roll up 'on the couch out there and rest.” “Thanks and good night,” I said, pulling ncr door shut behind me. ■■ V \ i I Morrison’s office was in city hall, and lookqd big enough for grand jury hearings. Files and tables piled with records and correspondence lined the wall, Mprrispn, a short stocky man with a rare-beef-steak complexion and thin white hair, sat at a desk in the middle of the room, his back to high window’s which faced west. There was nothing on his desk but two telephones, a few letters and a framed photograph of a middle-aged -woman with worried eyes and a soft, kind mouth. “Now, what was it you wanted to see me about, Mr. Canalli?” Morrison said. '>\ . [ . I had left Terry’s at nine and checked into my hotel to shower and camouflage some of my bruises with adhesive tape. Now, wearing my respectable blue suit and a clean white shirt, I sat facing Morrison, and smoking my first cigaret of the day. “I’m a private cop,”-1 said. “Take a look at this, please.” I handed him my license. “It’s up to date. You can check me with the police in Philly. I’ve worked out of there for 18 years, and my record is clean.” Morrison studied my license carefully, nodding. He glanced at me, then back to my picture on the license. “This seems to be in order.” he said. "But what’s the point? What do you want?” , “I want you to understand that I’m no crackpot. I know my business. My record is straight. You’ll probably want to check it when I tell you my story.” "All right, go ahead.” ; I paused to light another cigaret. “I’ve got a good lead on who’s running the dope racket in town. Does that interest you?” ■ . “It docs. Start from,the beginning.” i : I told him everything that had happened to me since hitting Chicago, leaving out only the angles which might nudge me into the electric chair. When I finished Morrison rubbed his hands together, frowning thoughtfully. "You don’t have proof,” he said.

i “Proof is There’s enough for me. But a jury would want more.” “Yes, of course.” Morrison opened the middle drawer of his desk and took out the morning paper. "You’ve seen this?” he asked, handing it to me. I nodded. The red-head was all over the front page, with top billing. Below the fold were pictures of Moore and Eddie. “This is the girl you followed to Ellerton'*' apartment?" Morrison asked. "That’s right.” _ “And now she’s dead.” She was dead all right.' I stared at her pretty face, smiling emptily at some photographer. She wore an evening gown in this picture, and her bare shoulders were brushed by the curling ends of her long hair. There was another of her as she had been found in a West Side lot. Two cops stood over her, and" the woman who’d stumbled on the body was gaping at then!, Apparently stunned by the Importance of her role in this tragedy.) The coroner’s physician said •' the redhead had been strangled to death, after having been bound jand tortured. The detectives thought it was a sex crime. Mort Ellerton, her boss, had offered a thousanddollar reward to anyone with information leading to the arrest and conviction of the murderer or murderers. Ellerton knew who’d killed her, of course, So his offer was in the nature of a sentimental gesture. He was a very sentimental guy, obviously. 1 wondered how he felt about Moore’s and Eddie’s deaths. That should jar him a bit. I wondered if he’d offered a thousand dollars for their killer. Not publicly, of course, but privately he was probably ready to go much higher than a thousand to get the guy who’d erased his two fop hoodlums. ‘ I;? I glanced at the pictures of Moore and Eddie, rogue’s gallery shots which showed Moore as a younger man, insolent and tough, and Eddie as a youth who looked smug. > Morrison cleared his Vhroat. “Those are the men who took the girl to Ellertoh’s apartment, right?” “Yes.” ( “But you didn’t see them leave with her?” He was probing the weak spot in my story. “No, I hung around for an hour or so,, but- no one showed. That’s how they took her out, I imagine.” “But who killed them?’. **“l wouldn’t know,” I said. * We looked at each other steadily. I had an idea he knew I was lying. He picked Up a phono, waited for the connection; then said, “Ask the superintendent [to come into my office, please.” He hung up, glanced at me. "I want his reaction to yoilr story, Mr. Ganalli.” “That’s fine,” I said. “Also, I’d like to make a suggestion. Let’s call the fedcrals into this thing now. Dope is their .busings. Local police forces mess up these jobs, and don’t holler for the feds until all the operators have beep scared out of the area.” J < ! “We’ll wait until you talk to the superintendent," Morrison said.
