CONGRESS IS

ft par-f irms t.n President Truman's direct anneal to the

nublic for sunnort of his legislative nrogram are about what

might have been expected. Organized labor generally is for the fact-finding setup, but remains opposed to a compulsory coolinsr-off neriod before strikes. Major industries now in-

volved in or threatened with work stoppages seem no more co-operative than before he spoke. Congress, both the chief cause and target of presidential criticism, reacts . along the customary administration and anti-administration lines. The vast body of public opinion, often inert and generally inarticulate, remains to be heard from. The chief points to be considered now, it seems , to us,

are the nature of the president s strategy and its possible elfeet in breaking the legislative jam. Mr. Truman exhibited both courage and restraint in leveling-criticism at Congress. It requires courage for any president to speak as he did in an election year. For inevit

On many of these subjects, I personally know that there are individual members of the respective committees who are trying to induce their colleagues to report bills. But often a bare majority of a committee a handful of men can prevent a vote by the whole Congress on these measures of majority policy." ' . ' - ' The phrase "a handful of men" has a distinct Wilsonian ring, but coming from a man who'has been "one of the boys," who prefers friendship and co-operation with Congress, it may. go over with the public better than the scholarly viewpoint of the World War I president. Moreover, Mr. Truman ..narrows responsibility further by linking specific committees with the specific acts they are holding up. (Regardless of judgment regarding his legislative program as a whole, his strategy is sound. We hope it is effective m blasting loose the committee log jams and at least permitting Congress as a whole to approve or reject his proposals. It will be effective if-the public is sufficiently dis- . turbed over current peace time crisis to join in the president's demand for action. '

Green Dolphin

"Blue eyes and fair hair!" cried William.

?'TJkUE eyes and fair hair!" There was an exultant note D in William's voice as he had his first glimpse of his . daughter and there was a sharp stab of pain in Marianne's heart. Her sister Marguerite had blue eyes and fair hair. "What shall we call her?" William turned to Marianne. . In a voice that did not seem to be hers, Marianne said: "Shall we call her Marguerite?" William kissed her then ; almost as she wanted to be kissed, almost with eagerness. "But she must be named after her mother, too," he said. "We'll call her Marguerite Veronique." - ' . Later William told her of the sinking of the Green Dolphin and the tragic death of Captain' O'Hara, and of the complete destruction of their lumber properties in Welllng- , Jon Everything was gone, even their home here.

"fiever mind, William," she said. "Well begin again.

Back on the Island, Marguerite LePatourel looked out from the window of Le Paradis over the harbor of St. Pierre. She had just received a letter from William telling of the arrival of the baby "she is fair-haired and blueeyed and of exceptional beauty," William wrote. "And she is to be named Marguerite Veronique after both her mother and her aunt." Marguerite's heart was a jumble of emotions. She crossed the room and picked up a letter and package she had received from William some weeks before. He had written: "Marianne is waiting now for her child. It is to be a boy,

Scarcely a generation ago the fear of tuberculosis was as bad as I a mad dog scare. People believed ijthat it was a family ' taint "and nothing could be done about it. So afraid were some people that they would go six blocks out of their way to avoid walking by a sanatorium, fearing that it contaminated the air. ,. However, it is pleasing to be able to say that this fear has vanished. Nowadays people know that the germ of tuberculosis only passes from a patient to well persons when they make close and I frequent contact. It is especially likely to spread between people I who have close family ties, be cause they are together so much. With proper precautl5rfs,r which can be explained by any doctor or nurse, there need be little danger of the spread of infection. If found early, tuberculosis responds well to treatment. Upon request your Tuberculosis Association will send free to readers of this paper the booklets on this subject. Many young people have gray hair. It is not a sign of disease, but merely loss of coloring matter. . ! Parotitis is an impressive name for the familiar disease of mumps.
