By HERMAN it BUNDESEN, M.D. IN a simple comparison, the ' day-by-day working of the human body exhibits more efficiency than those of any man-made mechanism, for example, the .automobile. However, even naturei’s superior products need occasional “so-called” grease jobs or oil changes. ; 7 Many times, the tubes leading to the air sacs of the lungs become clogged with a thick, cflffl-cult-to-remove type of material, which disturbs the normalbreathing process. This can occur with bronchitis and pneumonia. I Difficulty in Breathing • It also occurs in cases of Bulbar polio, and In certain cases of sudden lung collapse. When this happens, there Is great difficulty in breathing. It is vital that the patient cough up this thick ma1 terihl, but because of its stickiness It is very difficult to accomplish this feat. Methods have been sought to dissolve the accumulation in the tubes leading to the lungs* sacs. By dissolving It, the patient could breathe more easily, which, In ;turn, would help speed reccverv • .. •1 Ji

The International Longshoremen’s As soc 1a 11 on, which was dropped from membership in the American Federation of Labor, may have Intended to use the strike as a weapon in its last ditch fight to hold on to its authority. A rival union, sanctioned by the AFL, has already been formed and has enlisted support from dock worker* who are weary of belonging to an organization which has become the prey of big-time racketeers and criminals. The strike will now be delayed. . When the 80 day coolingoff period has expired the people who employ the workers will have a better idea of which union really speaks for the workers and can be depended on to till the terms of a contract. The waterfront hoodlums should be cleared out. —o—o— . . Up To Reds:— - Red China, supported by Russia, wants admission to the United Nations. The United States and enough other nations oppose tbe admission to keep the Chinese Communists out. The United Nations was founded to promote wofld peace and to provide a forum which could be used as a substitute for battlefields'. In what way has Communist China shown that she would make that use of U.N. membership? The Reds have actually waged war on the side of a country opposed to the UN. Would it be wise to give a country which has so recently been an enemy of the UN a voice in its affairs? If Red China sincerely wants to belong to the United Nations let her prove it by deeds. Let her leaders withdraw their support of the Communists fighting in Indo China. Let them renounce aggression and permit to be; united. Until the Chinese have taken real steps to convince the world that what they want is peace, the United States no choice but to oppose their admission.

In the body, and which acts to digest dead tissues without producing any action on living tissues, was used for dissolving the thick material. This enzyme, or dead tissue dissolvent, is known as trypsin. A nebulizer, or instrument that produces a fine' spray, Is connected to a breathing mask, and through It the patient breathes in a fine spray of oxygen combined with the trypsin. i In most instances, this enzyme ' ideally removed the thick sputum and other secretions in the tubes leading to the lungs’ sacs.

ROY L
SYWOTSIS When PhD Stanley stepped into Humphrey Charles’ law office to collect another sizable legacy due him, he stepped right Into Nancy Kelly’s life. Intrigued by the sparkling wit and the lush red hair of this young woman serving as Mr. Charles* secretary. Phil ventured to ask Nancy to lunch with him. and she accepted. It would be fun, she reasoned, to be seen at the University club with the city’s . most eligible young millionaire bachelor. His name had been linked with that of many a socialite miss, including Linda Van Vliet. a new-comer, Whose charm and brunette beauty had become the toast of the town. CHAPTER TWO OFFICER Eugene Brennan’s whistle shrilled eloquently that Phil was holding up Saturday’s noon traffic. Linda Van Vliet.just managed to get herself and her platinum mink out of the path of another car. Phil’s car sped forward. “That was Linda Van Vliet.” —who is she?” If Phil answered, Nancy didn’t hear. He was suddenly preoccupied with some mechanism on the elaborate dashboard of his car. The roadster stopped at the East Wells street entrance of the University club. Nancy looked up at the elegancies of the Georgian building, scene of so many brilliant social events. Teas for the debs and sub-debs. Service club affairs. The Harvard club dinner. Cotillions, balls. A world of glitter and wealth that NanCy had never known. Only this very day the society columns were filled with descriptions of the gowns worn by society girls at a Service club affair held at the University club. Patsy Monroe, one'of the debs, Was described as slender and brown-haired, with a sequin sprinkled frock ot white net . , . Barbara Johnstone in a Grecian chiffon frock with a' pleated skirt . . . Rosemary Roscoe in a white marquisette trimmed with blue paillettes. Nancy hadn't taken two steps across the threshold of the club when she felt panicky, and worse than that, shabby. In the dining room, its crystal chandeliers reflecting a thousand lights; rose and green, blue and diamond white, Phil Stanley asked for a table for two. Easily, gallantly, he pulled a chair for Nancy as though she were the Duchess of Windsor. He reached to help her with her coat. The lining was worn. He couldp’t help seeing it, yet she hoped desperately that he wouldn’t. “Hello, Anne. H*arc you, Ken.” Phil greeted.* couple at a nearby table. Nodded to others. “Now then, for the caviar and the pate de foie gras, eh. Miss Kehy ... or shah I call you by your other name—Nancy?" “Don’t mind, but if YOU don't mind, this menu says there’s 'corned beef Suits my name better than caviar.” ■ o the spirit.

She couldn’t have her mother make one more excuse to the landlord. He said he’d be back that very day. She pushed back the demi-tasse. “If you please, Mr, Stanley. I just remembered something, I must go.” Nancy felt that she could carry the escapade no farther. That demon, conscience, was making* her miserable again.

South Korean Plot To Free POWs Bared Sooth Koreon Army Sources Bare Plan ) To Free Anti-Reds PANMUNJOM, Korea UP — South Korean army sources today bared a plot to free 22,500 antiCommunist prisoners from Indian custody and the Reds warned that a mass escape would “blow up” tbe truce. The ROKs notified the Indians through the Bth army that Provost Marshal Lt. Gen. Won Yung Duk was planning to carry out the plot even if it led to an armed clash between Schith Koreans and Indians. It was Won who almost wrecked the Korean truce last June 18 by permitting 27,000 anti Communist North Korean prisoners to flee Allied compounds under unilateral orders from President Syngman Rhee.. South Korean political leaders called upon civilians to attend mass meetings Tuesday and protest the “barbarous” Indian handling of anti-Communist prisoners. Government sources said the South Korean people would harbor escapees from Indian custody just as they had sheltered the fugitive. South Korea planned the mass escapes, the sources said, to prevent Indian guards from slaying more| anti-Communist prisoners who do not want to go back to Red rule. Thus far, the Indians have slain three prisoners and wounded 10 in putting down anti - Communist demonstrations/ Nine North Koreans escaped the Indian camp last Thursday and an anti-Communist Chinese slipped out of the compound Monday. The North Koreans have given the South Koreans an elaborate map of the Indian custodial camp. Peiping radio, voice of Communist China, blamed the United States for Routh Korea’s defiant attitude toward the Indians, who were assigned to guard the prisoners for 90 days while "explainers” of both sides attempt to change the captives’ minds about going home. The Red radio said the U. S. was attempting to force the neutral nations repetition eommissloh to change its stand oh repatriation by planning to release the prisoners. “Our correspondent declares that if the Americans succeed in carrying out their scheme of armed abduction of the prisoners of war, the Korean armistice would be blown to pieces,” radio Peiping said. As tensions mounted over the start of “explanations,” Swiss and Swedish members of the neutral commission attempted to stem bitter U. N. and South Korean criticism of India’s rol.e The delegates said the meetings on explanations had been ruined by bitter fights, with India voting against the Polish and Czech delegations. “We came over here as true neutrals,” one said. “We think we are being fair, but the Poles and Czechs evidently came with a different idea. They simply are not neutral. They are representing the Communists.” Trade in a good Town — Decatur

Tribute Is Paid To Ernie Pyle Memory Brief Ceremony Is Held At Indiana U. BLOOMINGTON, Ind-, UP — Many of the nation’s greatest newsmen and public figures met at Ernie Pyle’s alma mater today to pay tribute to his memory. A five-star general was their spokesman. General of the army Omar N. Bradley (ret.) speaks at a brief ceremony outdoors on the Indiana University campus. It is to dedicate a bronze plaque for the Scripps-Howard war correspondent as a historical site in journalism. The marker was presented and the ceremony planned by Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalistic fraternity, as a feature of national newspaper week. Plye, a Hoosier whose simplywritten human chronicles of the U. 8. soldier in World War II made him famous, was killed by a Japanese sniper’s bullet on a tiny Pacific island in 1945 while covering the war. President Eisenhower recorded a message for the ceremony as an introduction of Bradley. The ceremony was planned amid the brilliant autumn foliage .of the campus Pyle called home as a student in the early 1920’5. Plye was from Dana, Ind. Mr. Eisenhower’s World War II naval aide, x Capt. Harry C. Butcher, also was a speaker. President Herman B. Wells accepted the plaque on behalf of the school. There, was an ROTC honor guard to escort Gilmore Reid of Indianapolis, one of the men Pyle wrote about, to the site of the unveiling. The plaque later will be installed on a campus building now being remodeled «s quarters for the journalism department. Among tbe guests was Mrs. Mary Bales of Dana, the aged “Aunt Mary” Ernie wrote about in his columns. ? The guests viewed a life-sized painting of Pyle by Kq* Marie Wiest, Albuquerdug, N. M., who painted it. It shows. Pyle in serious mood, drpsted aa a war correspondent.
