He reached the pinnacle of political fame as Republican national chairman in thfe 1920 campaign and then was appointed Postmaster General in President Harding’s cabinet.. In fact the GOP hasn’t had a chairman 'in the past 34 years that measured up in ability and achievement with Will Hays. From the President’s cabinet he went to Hollyw’ood as the first "czar” of the movie industry. He was the final authority in this newly created office that censored—the output of films in the world’s capital of the then silent movie day# Mr. Hays Hiser was nationally known as a lawyer. In addition to his "home office” in Sullivan, he had offices in New York and Indianapolis. His death removes a distinguished Hoosier citizeh with a national reputation . in law and politics.

Prevention of Motion Sickness

ME2MMI N BUMfiKEN M 0 : ■ ENGINEERS have prevented many a bump or twist for the traveler, but they have not been able to prevent motion sickness. Many ingenious devices have been perfected with this intention In mind, but the average rider on a train, plane, car, or boat experiences some degree of discomfort. Fortunately, engineers have not been the only ones seeking a cure for this. Medical Aids Medical scientists have perfected many drugs that protect a person against motion sickness. Very rough travel can make nine out of ten persons ill. Moderately rough travel upsets ten to thirty per cent of inexperienced travelers. Motion sickness often begins with drowsiness. Then the person may develop a white pallor, a cold sweat, and begins to swallow excessively, giving off a large amount of saliva, finally he develops severe nausea and vomit- ' Ing. In some cases, motion sickness 1s accompanied by dizziness. » Balance Instability It Is believed that the disease is caused by an instability of the

Times have changed indeed when a Republican president opposes a higher tariff on wool. President Eisenhower told Ray W. Willoughby president of the National Wool Growers Association, that he preferred to support the domestic wool price by government aid rather than increase the customs duty. His feeling was that the cost of such support would be small compared to the cost of the world defense program, which a higher tariff might The wool duty used to be the backbone of GOP protecfive tariff acts. Now a Republican president sees no merit in woll duties. The trend is toward the removal of trade barriers. 0 0-— St. Joe Champs:— The spunky, “win or die” St. Joe quintet came home with the diocesan crown tn a CYO basketball tourney played in Gary. Ably coached by Dave Terveer, mentor of the Commodores, the St. Joe’rs defeated teams from South Bend and Indiana Harbor to win the championship. Friends of the boys glory in their latent victory. We salute the junior Champs! 0 o Hull's National Fame: Cordell Hull, Tennessee's most famous son js to receive a special honor. His service as Secretary of State from 1933 to 1944 broke all records for tenure of this post. One of the few living statesmen who was born in a log cabin, he has consented to have his decaying birthplace near Byrdstown, Tenn., converted into a national shrine. Tennessee cut more of a national figure before the civil war than it did afterward, largely because the population of industrial states has increased faster. She gave three presidents to the nation, Jackson. Polk and Johnson. Only Virginia, Ohio and New York have given more. In the house and senate for 24 years before entering the cabinet, Hull was the author of the original income tax law of 1913. He was Democratic national_committee chairman far 1920. As Secretary of State he was the chief mover behind the reciprocal trade relations act of 1934. In 1945 his ’efforts for peace gained him the Nobel prize. Porn in 1871, Hull received serious backing for the presidency in 1940, but ms age forbade. He did not. however, need the preßit dency to attain secure fame.

These cases are very few, however. —- Many drugs have been used to treat motion Sickness. One, known as scopolamine, has been used for many years with good results. During the war, dramamine was discovered, which was also very effective in relieving motion sickness. A Day’s Protection ... Recently, a new drug known as bonamine was developed. Two tablets of this new drug will protect most travelers from motion sickness for a full twenty-four hours. However, it should be remembered that these drugs should only be taken under a doctor’s direction.

SYNOPSIS Dr. Stephen Carr is about to leave his native Norfolk in the mid-west, tor Army duty in the Pacific. He has arranged with his old friend. Dr. Craig Talboy. a skilled physician, to come to Norfolk from a distant city, for the purpose of taking over the Carr medical ■ practice. Talboy arrives and is warmly greeted by Carr and his gracious wife. Shelly, at dinner in their home. Shelly is struck by the dark handsome Talboy’s dynamic force, his charm and sense of humor and especially by his generally bad opinion of the medical profession as a whole. Fearfully, she wonders whether her husband’s patients wUI find this bluntly frank nonconformist, acceptable as their doctor. Carr leaves for his mission to the Orient and Dr. Talboy promptly dismisses Carr’s long devoted office clerk. Miss Cobb. He explains the matter merelv by stating that he did not care to be hag-ridden by the woman. Shelly steps into the vacant clerical post Wondering as she does so. what motive the pompous Carr family may attribute to ner move. Silicosis, an ailment due largely to improper dust control in factory plants, has long plagued local factory workers. Dr. Talboy determines to uproot this evil at Its base, well aware that hts course of action may bring about Industrial strife. CHAPTER TWELVE "WELL, my goodness, child," May Anna told Shelly, "if you’re lonely, you can always come out here and stay." “Thank you—you are kind. But —oh, it’s not so much being alone as it la not having definite duties to do at definite times. Going to the office gives me that." “Miss Cobb says she couldn’t get along with the new doctor," said her sister-in-law, Ruth. "Oh, have you talked to her?" “Yes: after all, v.e wanted to know why you, the wife of a Carr, should . . For a brief minute the blue eyes flashed several tones lighter. “You could have asked me: there was no mystery about it Dr. Talboy obviously is not Stephen. Miss Cobb thought he should be—and—well, he MM’t.” • It didn't really make sense. The Carrs had every right to look puzzled. “Do you know Dr. Taiboy?” she asked her father-in-law. “Os course we know him! Stevie brought the man to my office when he first came to Norfolk,” he said quietly. “He has been very conscientious about plant inspection and personnel examinations. I asked him out here one night for dinner. He played the piano. He does it very well. Have you heard him?” “No,” said Shelly. “You evidently know him much better than 1 do.” “Yes. He does play well. Jazz mostly. He and I did a duet.” Everett chuckled. "He said I was as good as Truffian. Stubborn tnan,” Everett added coldly. His face had become, mute suddenly. *

mask, cold and determined. It was this core Os tee which could crop up unexpectedly that made Shelly fear tier father-in-law. His voice dropped to a rumble. “Don’t wonder the Cobb girl left! Don’t let him be rude to you, Shelly!” She smiled. “He’s never shown any inclination. In fact, his manners are downright courtly.” She quoted Stephen, “No one ever gets through a door behind Dr. Talboy.’’ Everett seemed to be reconsidering. His next remark was in a milder voice. “Well, if you like the work, and get along with the man —1 don’t see why you shouldn’t play around with a job, until you get tired of it,” he conceded. “And if you do get along with him, 1 wish you’d do me a favor.” Shelly was so surprised at the suggestion that she could only stare. “Use any influence you have, my dear, to get the man into line with the hospital! Three months is three months, and the time has Come for him to show his hand. To do, or to don't! And I wish you’d see to it that it’s do.” “Papa,” murmured May Anna. The next day Shelly put the question directly to Craig Talboy, and he answered her, after fiis own fashion. _— "What,” she said directly, "is the matter between you and the hospital?” “Did your father-in-law tell you to ask me that?" he countered quickly,softly. Shelly sighed. “He indicated there was some sort of trouble. He didn’t say what it was.” “Tell you to bat your pretty eyelashes? NoT No, I withdraw that! He didn’t, and you wouldn’t. But maybe he suggested that, as St ephe ns - Stevie's— wife, you could pass along a few orders?” “If you knew how unhappy they are about my working here, you’d not suggest that I was their stooge.” He smiled. “So the kitten has claws,” he announced. Shelly said nothing. She had brought the record book and some mail to Dr. Talboy’s desk tor nis attention. He was supposed to tell her of any outside calls he nad made, of any appointments: ne would indicate how to answer the mail. “The only point of disagreement I’ve had with the hospital board,” said Dr. Talboy gently, "is my failure to join the local, chapter of the Medical association.” " “Oh,” said Shelly. - “1 suDDose Stevie belonged.

Dairy Price Support Cutback Defended Benson's Decision Defended By Morse DAYTON, Ohio, UP — Undersecretary of agriculture True D. Morse said today the dairy industry "cannot afford to continue to lose markets” with high priced products that "turn the business” over to competing products. Morse said the 15 percent cutback. in daily price supports scheduled to go into effect next month was "not an easy decision,” But he said farm law and the "alarming rate” at which surplus dairy products have piled up in government hands gave secretary ’ BZra T, Benson “no choice.” In a speech for the 28th annual mepWng of Miami Valley Milk Producers Assn., Morse noted that for the first time in history people are eating more margarine than butter. ~ "We .re told that it is no kindfiess to the dairy industry to continue price supports at a level that progressively destroys the market for. good products like butter, cheese and dried milk,” he said.

fact, I know he did.” "Yes. Os course.” “Why ’of course ?” "1 don’t know anything about such matters, Dr. Talboy. But Stephen usually did the things ne was supposed to do.” “Why ? Because he was supposed to. or because he thought, for himself, that to do them was right?” “I don’t know,” Shelly admitted. “But he does have a mind of his own. You know he does!” "I liked Carr finfe—until 1 came here to work.” "Did you know that Stephen had studied medicine against his family's wish?” "Well, good for him! We’U mark that up on bis chart! I always supposed the family, like most industrialists, tiad decided they could afford a professional man." “The Carrs think there is nothing better than being a successful industrialist.” He tipped back in his chair, and studied the ceiling while he considered that. "Do they still hope Stevie will give up medicine?” “Don’t call him that! But, yes—they’d be pleased.” “Hmmmnnnra,’’ mused Dr. Taiboy, his eyes closed. “Why haven’t you joined the Medical association here?” "Matter of principle.” His tone was indifferent She said nothing. ' “You admire principles?" One eye looked at her. “Sometimes.” He sat up and faced her. "Shelhe said earnestly, “I think you’re mighty pretty, but —well, do you know anything—anything at all about the A.M.A. ?’’ "If you mean the American Medical association . . “I do.” “Well, then—l recognize its prestige; I know it’s a big organization." “Os what kind of men?” “Why, doctors.” “What kind of doctors?" “If you're making fun of me ..." ;“I’m not, Shelly. I’m taking a sample ot your information, just as the city goes around with bottles and takes samples of water. The A.M.A. is a whopping-big organization, and it spends millions in advertising, publicity, propaganda —and all the average layman can ever tell me about it ts that it’s big, and has prestige. Now, Shelly, I'm not criticizing you. I’m blaming the A.M.A. They should tell you people what the thing is,'how it started, how it operates." "Well, what’s wrong with it?" (To Be Continued)

Phone Threat Sent Senator McCarthy Man With Spanish Accent Phones Hotel NiEW YORK UP — A man with a Spanish accent telephoned the Waldorf Aatorla Hotel early today that ‘•something terrible” would happen to Sen Joseph R. McCarthy before daylight. Police assigned a uniformed patrolman to guard the suite where McCarthy and his wife, Jean, were staying. i ’/ The senator and his wife checked in at the Waldorf Monday night after they arrived by plane from Miami, Fla. McCarthy is scheduled to speak today at a lunch meeting of New York’s "Dutch Treat Club.” Waldorf security guards reported to police that a man “with a Spanish accent” telephoned with the brief message that “something terrible” would happen to McCarthy during the night. The man hung up before the call could be traced. The hotel said it was assigning one of its security guards to patrol the floor of the McCarthy suite along with the city policeman. Other hotel employes were alerted to keep an eye out for suspiciouslooking visitors. Even before the anonymous threat was received, police had threat, was received, police had safety of the controversial Republican. On his arrival at International Airport, 10 uniformed patrolmen waited to escort him into Manhattan. McCarthy and his wife, who is on crutches with a broken ankle suffered in a taxi accident, appeared surprised when they stepped out of an airliner into the swarm of police One patrolman told them: "You got to have protection. Everybody in the crowds got to lie watched.” — This was in keeping with a policy of giving special police protection to public figures in New York since the shooting in the house of representatives March 1 by fanatic Puerto Rican Nationalists. A police spokesman said early today the telephoned threat against McCarthy might well have been the whim of a crank, but special vigilance was being-exercised for the safety of government officials during the crackdown on Puerto Rican Nationalists. R was the second time within 15 days that McCarthy has been the object of a telephoned threat. Police in Philadelphia received an anonymous warning before the senator arrived there Feb. 22 to receive a good citizenship award from the Sons of the American Revolution.

Traffic Safety Is Now Tradition In Evanston

(Editor's note: At the recent White House conference on highway safety ‘ cities in each population group were cited for good traffic safety records. How did they manage "to cut down the traffic death rate? . The answers are supplied in a series of four dispatches from blue ribbon communities in the east, the south, |he middlewest and the-, far west. Today’s comes from Evanston 111. Subsequent dispatches will explain the safety measures used effectively in Provdence, R. 1., Atlanta, Ga„ and Seattle, Wash.) By ALFRED LEECH EVANSTON, 111., UP — This city of 75,000 has achieved one of the nation’s best traffic safety records through expert traffic engineering and strict law enforcement. Evanston, a bustling city in its own right, is Chicago’s northern neighbor. It has as many traffic problems as any other city its size. But since 193tf it has won 22 national awards for traffic safety, plus five more from the American Automobile Aksn. for pedestrian safety. Time and again Evanston has been cited as a model at the White House conference on highway safety, the most recent of which was held last month. City manager Bert Johnson said safety has become a “tradition” in Evanston. — "The integrity of our police department in enforcing the law's politely but firmly has carried ovred over into the public and has made everyone safety conscious," Johnson said. He said Evanstonians respect the laws in the knowledge that they are fairly administered. For years, he said, the city has had “fix-proof" traffic tickets. Johnson estimated the city’s annual expenditure on traffic at $207,000, including $160,000 for the police traffic division. $30,000 for traffic engineering and mainten ance of signs and signals, and $17,000 for administration. . In 1952, Evanston won the national safety council’s grand national award with a perfect record of no traffic deaths. In 1953 it had two deaths for a rate of 0.7 per 10,000 vehicles registered, compared with the national average of 2.1 for cities its size. The national safety council gives much of the credit for Evanston's enviable performance to two men. One is Frederick Kreml, who began as an Evanston motorcycle cop and became one of the nation’s top traffic experts. —— The other is Police Lt. Frank

Andrews, who has been in charge qf Evanston’s traffic enforcement for several years. Kreml, who patrolled Evanston’s streets by day and studied law by night, propounded the theory that most accidents are caused by maladjustments in traffic movement. He got a chance to prove his theory in 1929 when Evanston set up one of the nation’s first separate traffic prevention bureaus and placed him in charge. Kreml set up the system of spotting traffic accident locations on maps and concentrating police in those raeas. Later he was instrumental in setting up>Northwestern University’s traffic institute, which helps train traffic policefrom throughout the country. Evanston was one of the first cities to take away the drivers’ licenses of violators. Traffic law violators who are placed on probation must attend safety schools once a week for four weeks. The Evanston township high school was one of the first in the country to offer driver training as part of the regular curriculum, with classroom and actual driving instruction. The city also was one of the first to emphasize pedestrian control, using loudspeakers on police cars to instruct drivers and pedestrians on proper conduct in traffic. Evanston now is experimenting with variations of the “Barnes Dance" method of controlling traffic at intersections. In this method, traffic lights are so regulated that traffic at all four corners is halfted while pedestrians are permitted to cross in all directions, even via the jaywalk route. The city is experimenting with a variation sometimes called the “Hesitation Waltz,” in which cars must pause before turning at intersections to give pedestrians time to cross. ;• L DON’T TAKE A CHANCE TAKE PLENAMINS Smith Drug Co.
