We hope the auto industry is flourishing next year, but right now it appears there might be a let down in employment, which fact would have some influence on the annual guaranteed wage proposition. Attorney General Brownell told congress that he is opposed to the legislative proposal to “outlaw the Communist party and make membership a crime”. He explained his reasons for this stand that he doubted the constitutionality of such a law and further that it would make the work of the FBI almost impossible. Brownell’s predecessors and leaders in the for- ’ nier Tniffih administration took a similar position.

A Diseased Gall Bladder May Cause Signs of Heart Trouble

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. SOME symptoms of heart disease can be blamed on a diseased gall bladder. Certain persons past the age of 40 have a combination cf heart disease and gall bladder disease. The gall bladder disease can produce an angina-like pain in the chest. This is a sharp, stabbing pain which may travel down the left arm. It has been shown that gall bladder disease can change the rhythm and output of the heart as well, and that, even certain electrocardiographic changes take place. It is believed that damage to pne of the large nerves known as the vagus nerve Is to blame for this difficulty. The coronary arteries, that supply so vital an amount of the blood necessary for the heart, may become constricted or the amount of blood to these arteries may be lessened, due to the gall bladder disease. Up to the Doctor Certain carefully selected persons who suffer from a combination of heart and gall bladder disease obtain a definite benefit to

• ' ' the national election took place at the same time, thus bringing out more voters. They recall that*, in 1940- 1944 and 1948 the Democratic presidential candidates were not far from carrying Maine, although the September elections had gone Republican by a large majority. Early elections used to be more common. In Lincoln's day Pennsylvania and Ohio had October elections, at which both parties spent money lavishly to make a showing which might enhance their November chances. Vermont changed from September to November only a generation age. Maine might as well get in line. —a —oi——. < Indiana is being seriously considered as a possible site (or the new Air Force Academy which has just been created by act of congress. Madison, is the present location being pushed by Hoosiers. Other states have been offering sites and the decision will be made by a five-member commission appointed by Secretary of the Air Force Talbott. The Indiana Congressional delegation, including the two United States senators is scheduled to meet with Air Force and state officials, to recommend that Indiana, become the home of this new Academy. Public law 325, authorizes the academy and requires the secretary of the Air Force to select the site recommended by the com—mission, if its recommendation Is unanimous. Otherwise the secretary must select a site from among the first three recommended by the commission. Against Fires:— Spring, when the forests and the wooded areas are coming alive with the beauty of the season, is a good time to think about preserving that beauty by preventing forest ftres. A cigarette carelessly tossed away, a match • dropped ip. the wrong place, a campfire abandoned without be- 1 ing properly extinguished —' all these things can result in forest fires.' Every year millions of dollars worth of damagq is done. Even more tragic than the dollar loss is the valuable timberland which-is blackened and made barren by the fires, the wildlife which is destroyed and the natural beauty which is marred. Visitors to the woods and travelers along highways which pass through wooded areas do well to pause and appreciate the beauty of the scenery. By exercising common sense precautions they can make certain that no acts of theirs will contribute to costly forest fires.

their heart symptoms by the re- _ moval of their gall bladder. How- « ever, this does not mean that t every heart patient with gall j bladder symptoms should go r through surgery. This is best determined by the physician. j It must be remembered that no j benefit to the heart can be ex- . pected after gall bladder removal j if the heart disease is so sufficit ently advanced as to cause Its j own symptoms and sighs. How- . ever, many times, the severe pain ' supposedly due to heart disease 'jmay be due to gall bladder disturbance, and, once the dis- , eased gall bladder has been removed surgically, the patient will ‘ find himself free of the anginalike pain. QUESTION AND ANSWER Mr. S. A.: Is it true that the use of penicillin as an ointment will sensitize a person so that future use of the drug when it might be urgently needed might be inadvisable due to an allergy? Answer: The chances of a person being sensitized by the use of penicillin ointment occurs only occasionally. —

CHAPTER FORTY ONE THE ROOM was in Immediate uproar. Every doctor was on ms feet, chairs tipped and fell. Only one man seemed interested in Dr. Lewis, and when that one, Appleman. saw the trend of majority feeling he contented himself with picking up a couple of chairs. Lewis got to his knees, unassisted, and then to his feet, groggily dabbing at his jaw, and left the room. •» • • Stephen was on his way home. Shelly had met him m Kansas City. They reached Norfolk on Saturday evening, and went directly out to the Circle so that Stevie's tamily could share him. He showed the effects of his recent violent illness, was thin, and tired quickly—but he assured everyone that he was all right, and would be fine. He’d picked up ( an oriental infection which seethed to have cleared up, but the Army had given mm his severance because of the trouble. And, golly, was it good to be home! With his folks and his very own must He smiled his nice smile down at ms startled wife. “That's good," he murmured. “It means sweetheart." The family gathered around, and their friends. Shelly accepted a suggestion that they stay at Everett s tor a couple of nights; May Anna could not bear to let Stevie go so tar as into town away from her. Shelly went in for some clothes, and Stephen’s civvies; she talked to Myra, told her to tell them at the office. ••No need,” Myra interrupted. "Miss Browne won’t look for you." “Tell her we ll be in the first of the week.” “I’ll tell her that. You happy, i honey?” Shelly laughed tremulously. “I guess so. 1 mean, I’m so excited T can t analyze my feelings. It was—is —a little confusing to have everything wind up so suddenly. The tamily knew he was coming — but they hadn't told me. I—l’m jstill dazed." It was on Wednesday afternoon that Shelly and Stephen returned to their own home; Stephen explored the house, got acquainted with Agnes and talked so long to, Myra out in the garden that Shelly left them to go in and dress tor the Service club’s dinner. “At least one of us should have a clean face!” She was getting into her frock when Stephen finally came upstairs. He stood in the doorway of her dressing room, watching her. The. dress was a new one of bluegreen silk, simple, smart — Shelly smiled at him, then turned to look at mm more alertly. “Don t you like it?" she asked. “I got it to wear with ‘ those white beads you sent me." His blue eyes twinkled. "Those ’beads’ are jade, sugar.” “1 know. That is, I suspected as much.” He still lingered in the doorway. “You're going to be terribly late, Stephen.” "They won’t start without the speaker of the',evening. Shelly . ..” “Alhnwimn?"

His hand swept in a circle around his own feet. “This length is smarter.” “Well, I guess you’d know . . .• “But . . .” Now she turned to face him, and he grinned. “Qh, I just nad an idea— All the timer I was away, I thought of you as you looked in a certain dress. It was wmte —and long—and there was some purple on it — I think—” “Yes," said Shelly. “1 know the dress you mean.” It was the dress she’d worn to May Anna’s birthday dinner, a dress completely feminine, completely modest. “I’ll change to that,” she promised, “if you’ll run ..." „ When Stephen came for her help with his tie she was dressed. His: ’ eye (touched the violets, the single velvet shoulder strap, the ’ haltcircle of Bowers tucked into the back of her loosened hair. "That’s my girl!” he said contentedly, and Shelly smiled as she reached for the tie-ends. “1 can t wear the —beads,” site pointed out, slyly. “They weren’t in my dream . .sA'he told her. Her eyes were still thoughtful but, on the whole, content, when she went downstairs and out to the car. Myra watched her. "Do I look as good as 1 did last September?” asked Shelly. “You look fine!” said Myra, smiling and remembering last September. “I feel fine,” Shelly answered serenely. "And why not? The wife of the guest of honor at the dinner tonight!” “That works both way’s," Stephen assured Myra as lie got into his scab "The guest of honor takes a deal of pride in his wife." “You should!” Myra told him firmly. As Shelly Had expected, Stephen brought a group of contemporaries back to the’ house with them. She had, in fact, warned Myra—and Agnes. At ten, three or four sleek cars pulled up before the brick house, men in white dinner jackets, womeh in pretty gowns, went up the steps and through the white door, into the living room, out to the garden. Shelly moved about, the gracious hostess, the proud wife —no more. Nor less. ... Craig Talboy lounged in the hall doorway, ready to assist in serving drinks or anywhere Shelly might seem to need him. Even at dinner he had watched Shelly closely; here in her home, his intent gaze attracted Stephen’s attention. He found a chance to ask his friend it anything seemed wrong. With Shelly. “Why should anything , . .” “Your eye has a definitely diagnostic gleam,” Stephen told him. Craig sloshed the liquid sUH remaining m the th i c k-bottomed glass which he held. “Not diagnostic," tie said softly. “It’s an I-can’t-believe-my-eyes gleam." “Does that mean something?” Others close to the door were listening.

Craig straightened, and his black eyes kindled. “Sure it means something," he drawled. “Over night I find our Shelly sprouting a clinging vine’s pale green ten&ils.” ‘ Steiphen looked puzzled. Craig drained hi s glass. “No trace at all," he continued, "of the sturdy tree I’ve known this past year.” “And,” said Eleanor, from her seat in the corner of the Chesterfield, “I might say that Dr. Talboy has come to know Shelly quite well in—“ her dark eyes smiled, “ —-this past year." Stephen laughed, and reached for Craig’s glass. “T<i say he hadn t come to know her at all, if he’s reached the conclusion that she’s a sturdy oak." He disappeared mtoj-he hall. Shelly, by the fireplace, let herself look pleadingly at Craig, whose eyes were inscrutable. Myra’s firm little brown hand tugged so hard at Craig's elbow that he had to notice her. “You come nelp me!” she said fiercely. “1 need you in the pantry!” Craig took his tray of glasses to Uie dining room, mixed himself another drink, and then went across the nail to tne crimson and gold and white living room. Some ■ of the guests had departed. The men m the room now were all doctors —Stephen, Dr. Ward and Dr. Bowser—with their wives. And ; Walsh. Craig leaned an elbow on the ! carved mantel, looked down into his glass, and, his face a little pale, he said clumsily to Stephen that he'd been somewhat taken in by Shelly’s behavior during the past year. He tasted his drink. "She’s been acting something like an oak tree,” he growled, “1 guess because she had to, and I got tricked into thinking she might be ope.” He ventured a glance toward Shelly, who sat serenely in a low damask chair. “If I resembled any sort of a tree,” she said gaily, “1 did It to fool people like you, Craig, j and myself, that 1 had what' it | might take to get me through until Stephen came home.” She stood up, smoothed her white skirt, sjniled at the men—and shook her head. “1 Just want to show all of you something," she explained. "Craig is such a shy and modest man . . .” Ward snorted, and his wife looked at him reprovingly. "First time 1 heard a horned toad called shy,” growled the big doctor. “Well,” laughed Stephen, “at least Craig hasn’t been fooling anyone with camouflage.” “Just the same,” declared Shelly, “horned toads can become pretty famous." She went into the “small room" and returned with a magazine in her hand; she opened it and displayed an article, complete with Craig’s name as author, a picture of him and Donald. “Gosh, are you still doing that!” demanded Stephen. Craig grinned. “I can’t learn any better. Just as 1 can’t break Donald of chasing golf balls.” LTa Be Couduiuad i •

At first this angered me—for what bother is this of mine, a'Roman citizen, what these people do?—this rabble in an obscure old town here on the ragged outskirts of the great Raman Empire? After my bath, which not only refreshed me greatly but washed away such gloomy thoughts, I was waited upon by a centurion named Carus who declared he had come from the Procurator and was to act as my guide if ....J so desired. Intelligent, though light-hearted, he reminded me of your younger brother, Marcus, and I was happy —to accept —— “I am in your hands,” I said. “Whence shall we first go • —to the market place?” Carus laughed. “Not unless it is your plan to study the human race in only two varieties — wolves and sheep. I M would suggest the Temple because all manner of folk are encountered there.” Sound advice, indeed! As we approached the Temple we were made aware of LK a considerable disturbance taking place at its door. Several villainous-looking fellows, in obvious fright an&K clutching cages containing sacrificial doves, by us. Then I saw the tables of the money-changers—-greedy fellows who are the sanve everywhere!—had b«T overturned and the dealers in coins were scrambliß* about after the bits of silver which rolled everywhere. y-t I looked up and—behold, Lucilla! —I could hardly believe the testimony of my eyes!
