Your Health in War-Time
Let Hospital Assist You in Choosing Your Doctor
By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS How to choose a reliable, competent’ physician is a problem made
more acute these days, with many
of the strongest and best-trained
doctors going—or already gone—into the armed services. Also, vast changes in population centers have come about with the development of war industries, and many people are finding themselves in totally new environments, without such familiar landmarks around.
them as their family doctors. It is more important than ever that the working civilian population get satisfactory medical care, and that intel- en ligent distinction between : competent medical practitioners and quacks § be made. There are several impersonal. : agencies of information about doctors available to the questing public, Obviously, the Dr Masters license to practice is one of these. So are membership in county medical societies and permission to use the facilities of an accredited hospital. And finally, the records of the American Medecal association in Chicago may be consulted and give full objective data about all ifs members. Information of this sort may also be gotten from the secretary of the local medical society, which is a branch of the A. M. A. There are certain signals which the layman can observe in making his choice of a doctor. He should beware one who claims extravagantly successful cures, with “secret” medicines. The various healing cultists are not full-fledged physicians, and advertising is not acceptable practice among reputable physicians. Doctors who talk glibly and persuasively may frequently mask incompetence with . too ‘much “charm,” and those who strive to frighten patients and then mulct them with exorbitant fees are likewise not to be trusted. Last of all, it is important to consider the term of residence and quarters of one’s doctor. Doctors who travel about rapidly from town to town are likely to
One of the best and most direct ways to receive recommendations as to a doctor lies in calling the director of the nearest accredited hospital and asking for such information. : It is also possible, through the various files and publications of the A. M. A, for a doctor in one community to recommend one physician or several in another community. With these suggestions at hand, the patient can make his own selection - further on the basis of personality preference, since agreeable personal relationship between patient and phyhician is extremely important in promoting satisfactory recovery. : Mere size of practice is no reliable criterion of a doctor’s excellence, since the art of salesmanship may be the major factor here rather than the art of heal‘ing.

Vote Expected Today on Subsidies to Roll
Back Costs.
. WASHINGTON, June 24 (U. P.). ‘—Senator Clyde M. Reed (R. Kas.) opened the fight in the senate against price control subsidies today with an argument that-the Amer< ican people can well afford to pay higher prices for essential commodi« ties. A senate vote on the issue was expected late today. Paychecks of industrial workers have gone up much faster than the cost of living, Reed said. He cited statistics of the bureau
WASHINGTON, June 24 (U. P.) ~The house agricultural committee, ignoring President Roosevelt's opposition, today approved legislation give War Food Administrator /Chester C. Davis undisputed authority over the food ind , with powers over prices and rationing as well as distribution.
of labor statistics and the bureau of agricultural economics to show: “In January, 1943, factory paychecks were 174 per cent of the 1935-39 average, while the cost of living was up oniy 120.7 per cent of the five-year average.”
CCC at Stake
“There is not the slightest equity in freezing prices of foodstuffs and wages at the 1942 level, in view of these figures,” Reed protested. The vote is scheduled for late today on a bill to extend for two years beyond June 30 the life of the Commodity Credit Corp through which the office of price adminisration expects to finance a program to roll back butter, meat and coffee prices to Sept. 15, 1942 levels. Answering congressional opposition to such a program, the senate finance committee has recommended an amendment to the CCC bill, authorizing up to $675,000,000 for the program already inaugurated, but forbidding expansions beyond that figure. A group of farm state senators rejected. that proposal on the grounds that “it would legalize a subsidy program the president] started without any legal authority.”
Claims Grange Backing
“If he can do it in one instance and get congressional authority later, he can go on indefinitely,” protested Senator George D. Aiken (R. Vt), Aiken and Senator Guy M. Gillette’ (D. Iowa) joined in sponsoring a substitute Tvo forbid any government agency /from paying any subsidies to hold down or
Aiken said their amendment had the backing of the National Grange, the National Council of Farm Cooperatives, the Co-operative Milk Producers federation and many state farm bureau federations. Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney (D. Wyo.) approached the argument from another angle. He indorsed subsidy payments to hold down prices (and wages) in the fight against inflation but insisted that the payments should go direct to producers instead of to processors as contemplated under the OPA program.
Fight Goes On
Even when the senate votes this afternoon, however, the fight over rollback subsidies is far from ended. The house is scheduled today or tomorrow to take up its CCC extension bill to which has been attached an amendment to outlaw the present OPA program or any other price-fixing subsidies on agricultural

Canning—
In Putting Up
This is the third of six articles on home canning prepared by experts of the U. 8. Department of Agriculture. It is suggested that you clip and save each installment.
A very modest beginning is best for those inexperienced in canning. Plan the day’s work so there will be no delay during the canning operations. All the necessary equipment should be collected and completely checked over ahead of time. Use the steam pressure canner for all vegetables except tomatoes. Use the boiling-water bath for tomatoes and all fruits. The canned food will be no better than the food that goes into the container. For this reason use only clean, fresh, sound products. Do not use any food that is overripe or has any decayed spots. Poor condition of the raw food increases the danger of spoilage in the canned products. * “Two hours from garden to can” is the best rule. In order to preserve the quality and all the food value possible, the food should be canned very soon after it is gathered. If the food must be held for a short time before canning, it should be spread out and kept as cool as possible.
Hot Pack Is Best
The hot pack method of canning is preferred for most foods because pre-cooking for a short time and packing hot in hot jars assures safer canning and helps to preserve the food value. Canning .only small amounts of food at a time, working rapidly, filling the jars with the liquid in which the food has been pre-cooked, and processing immediately also helps to retain food value. Twelve steps in canning: 1. Make preparations the day before canning. 2. Two hours from garden to can. Prepare vegetables or fruits and put them up quickly. 3. Scald all equipment immediately before using. Heat jars, glass or zinc covers in pressure cooker or pan of boiling water for 20 minutes. Scald rubber rings and self-sealing metal tops by dipping in boiling water.
Heat Jars, Too
4. Pre-cook nonacid vegetables in boiling water to shrink products, to drive out air from tissues and to shorten processing time. Put rubber on before packing jar. 5. Pack hot vegetables in hot jars and add boiling water in which vegetables were pre-cooked to within 3% inch of top of jar. Add salt— 1 teaspoon to pint, 1 teaspoon to quart. Do not Pack vegetables tightly, as that prevents thorough heating. 6. Exhaust cans (expel all aid) by placing filled cans on rack in pan of boiling water on the stove or in pressure cooker until steaming hot before completely sealing. 7. Partially seal screw-top jars with rubber . rings, screwing cap on tight and turning back % inch. On the boil-type jar leave the side clamp up. 8. Exhaust cooker: Add 1 inch of water or enough to cover rack in pressure cooker and prevent boiling dry. Put jars in cooker, clamp on the cover, tightening according to directions for your cooker. Leave petcock open until steady steam escapes (approximately 7 minutes); allow 10 minutes for cookers which are 25 fluidquart size or larger. 9. Process: Close petcock, run pressure up slowly. Start counting time when pressure reaches desired point. Use timetable. To avoid loss of liquid, and for best canning results, hold pressure constant for time required.

[NEW OWI AID HITS CENSORSHIP RULES|

WASHINGTON, June 24 (U. P.). Palmer Hoyt, new director of the domestic branch of the office of war information, believes that some of the censorship practices indulged is under the general excuse of military or naval security “smack of the thought processes of the middle ages.” He said that in an article which will be published by the American Council on Public Affairs in cooperation with the school of journalism of the University of Missouri in a forthcoming survey of “Journalism in Wartime.” Hoyt’s article, “What Price Censorship?” was written before he took a leave of ab-
sence as publisher of the Portland Oregonian to head the OWI branch. He said that there was “far too much unnecessary and improper mystery” in connection with the Tokyo raid of the Doelittle flyers, and he criticized similarly the withholding of information about the shelling of the Pacific coast by a
Japanese submarine.
