The House sharply cut the appropriation for the Voice of America program. The reduction will cause curtailment of broadcasts to Europe and on the other side of the Iron Curtain. Since many congressmen do not listen to the words of the President, they probably thought that foreigners skipped the Voice of? America. However, radio is about the only media available to get messages to the people, who are interested in democratic government. r

Farm acreage allotments still will go on next year. Secretary of Agriculture Benson has reduced the 1954 wheat crop to 62 million acres, the lowest point allowed by the new wheat quota law. Benson said he set the minimum acreage because next season's wheat supply is expected to hit “an all-time high.” At least twothirds of the growers voting must approve quotas before they can go into.effect. If the growers disapprove, then price supports on wheat drop to only 50 percent of parity. Many farmers in the midwest voted against government acreage controls last November. o o Smog covered the city the other evening as smoke from the city dump spread through the business and residential districts. Rubbish or garbage, not intended for the dump caused the trouble. The council declares the cause must be corrected and is considering regulations which will prohibit disposal of rubbish that emits offensive odor, or causes undue smoke when the debris is iet afire. Whatever the trouble, citizens hope YhaF the offensive smog condition will not be repeated. o oThe Berne city council plans an enlarged and improved water service for citizens in that thriving community. When. Berne's water supply is increased with the drilling of new wells, the council plans to install a water softening plant. An additional storage tank of 250,000 gallon capacity also will be constructed. Mayor Balsiger and 1 members of the council realize that water is the most precious of all commodities and that the demand for it constantly increases. The Berne officials have their civic sights aimed in the right direction. o oH— The country hopes that Walter Robertson, special emissary of President Eisenhower, who con-

Findina the Cause of Asthma

By HUMAN N. BWMHN, M.D. -ALLERGY” is an Important ] word in the lives of thousands of people in this country who have hay fever and asthma. The hay fever sufferer is oversensitive, or allergic, to pollen in the air, usually ragweed pollen, i The common type of asthma is also due to a sensitivity to pollen, dust, or various other substances in the air. Spasm of Bronchi In asthma, this sensitiveness > ' usually brings on a spasm of the bronchi, the two large tubes leadtog into the lungs. These tubes become constricted, inflamed, and discharge a thick fluid. This prevents the intake of air and, even more so, the discharge of air from the lung. The result is the marked wheezing that is the trademark of the asthmatic. Many people falsely believe - they are allergic to ragweed, when actually they are allergic to house dust. This can be quite confusing in those parts of the country where the dust season closely follows the ragweed season, and it may be very difficult to determine whether dust is really the irritant. Finding True Allergen The most important part of treating asthma is to determine the true allergen, the substance the person is allergic to, and eliminate this substance as much as possible. ■

ferred with Syngman Rhee, succeeded in convincing the South Korean president, that he should make a truce with the Chinese Communists. From information obtained over the press wires, it should be said that the young American diplomat stuck to his job and evidently used every means of intelligent persuasion with the fiery and independent Rhee. The Reds are launching their toughest Assaults this week and unless the truce is signed, the United States and UN armies will have to launch all-out war against the aggressors. o— —o James A. Hendricks was known throughout the county and possibly with the of the current teen-age generation, everybody had a personal acquaintance with the former county official and genial* gentleman. Mr. Hendricks made friends everywhere and his many years of county government service brought him in contact with every neighborhood in the county. He served as Adams County’s first road superintendent and prior to his appointment to this newly established post, had been elected a second time to the boatd of county commissioners. ye served creditably in these offices and was active in the promotion of better highways for our progressive county. His death closed a well-rounded life of four score and nine years as a leading citizen, public official, husband and father. __o_ o Cities all over, the country are bulging at the seams and expansion is evident wherever you drive. There is much growth in areas beyond the usual confines of brick streets and sidewalks. In our neighboring city of Fort Wayne, the council has voted favorably to annex a 282-acre tract lying north of the city, despite objections to the cost of building storm sewers, Construction of a fire engine hbuse and extending police aYid garbage collection services to the area. A congregation in the same city?has purchased land south of Anthony boulevard, equivalent iq size to two city blocks where a pew church will be .erected; Today, this territory is considered in the “wide open Spaces” and ten years hence it will be developed ipto a hustling business and res dential district. America is growing and expanding with more homes and shopping centers, proof to the world that our system of freedom ind private ownership Works. •A .. I' A jT.i ' !

One way to do this is to avoid the Allergen by moving away during certain seasons, or by filtering the air. Sometimes it is possible to desensitize the person against the substance. But to any case, the first step is to find out what particular substance this is. Frequently, this can be done by scratch tests on the skin. By this method, various suspected substances are applied to small scratches on the arm, and the scratches observed for ,their reaction. New Inhalation Test Unfortunately, these tests are sometimes entirely inaccurate, or are not a true measure of the possibility that a substance will cause asthma. A different kind Os test has recently been used in which different dusts and pollens are inhaled by the asthmatic person. Usually, asthma symptoms or a reduced activity or capacity bf the lungs can be seen when a person is sehsltive to the particular substancs being tested. This inhalation test can be performed for any possible substance, and may give us a more accurate way to detect the real source of the trouble. QUESTION AND ANSWER i Mrs. D. P.: Is it true that older mothers have a greater tendency to give birth to twins? Answer: Yes, there is a slightly higher proportion of twins born to older mothers.
