Foreign News Commentary

By Alberto Schazin LIltLA., Peru UPI — Communist broadcasts from Moscow and Cuba can be heard nightly in Peru, telling of the “victorious” rebellion by guerrillas in the Peruvian jungles and mountains. The broadcasts are made in the Quechua Indian language as well as In Spanish. They glorify the guerrilla cause of liberation, Incite others to join the movement. In reality, however, the guerrilla terrorism in Peru's backlands has all but ended in defeat. There have been no major clashes between the guerrillas and government forces since Aug. 12. The combined action of the army, air force and state police apparently has split the insurgent forces into two groups. Military spokesmen said one of the grops is in the Jutunhuasi Mountain area 240 miles east of Lima, the other near Satipo on the edge of the Amazon jungle 300 miles to the east.

The military has estimated total guerrilla strength at about 200 men, armed with submachineguns, rifles and homemade hand grenades. Nevertheless, a state of siege that was imposed last July 4 continues in effect. And army and police patrols remain in the sparsely settled areas where the guerrilla terrorism began

June 7.

But the unrest caused by the backlands fighting, plus a few terrorist bomb attacks in Lima itself, has neither endangered the moderate leftist government of President Fernando' Belaunde Terry nor hampered Peru’s blossoming economy. The terrorism began with a guerrilla attack on a lead mine, where explosives were stolen. Later four farm homes were attacked and robbed of food, then a police patrol was ambushed, all the activity occurred in the Jutunhuasi area east of Lima. On June 12. Belaunde sent in army troops to clean out the guerrillas. The troops received

support from the atr fore#, which bombed areas where the guerrillas were thought to be concentrated. In eight direct clashes, government troops and police patrols have killed 40 guerrillas and lost 19 of their own — a kill ratio of 2-to-l. After two bombs exploded in Lima and a group of terrorists robbed a bank and gambling agency of $24,000, Belaunde ordered all known or suspected Communists in the capital arrested. Police rounded up 200, detained 150. Among those detained were student leaders, teachers, attorneys and an excommunicated Catholic priest as well as laborers. The arrests brought an end to the terrorist attacks in Lima. The guerrillas have been identified as members of the leftist revolutionary movement, a Trotskyite group led by attorney Louis de la Puente Uceda. The attorney has been wanted by police for two years for the murder of a political rival, who was shot in the presence of hundreds of witnesses in a churchyard in Trujillo.

REPUBLICAN MINORITY IS LESS THAN EFFECTIVE

President Johnson

(rets what

he wants

By HENRY CATHCART Central Press Washington Writer XY7ASHINGTON' — President Johnson’s way with Congress W continues to be the marvel of the current Washington ecene. One has to reach back a long way in memory to a time of crisis or war to find a parallel. But Johnson is getting just about everything he wants from the legislators without either of these two imperatives to spur compliance. The answer lies in part in the President’s own vast practical political experience on Capitol Hill. But even this is not enough to explain how he can get recalcitrant Democrats to vote with him and against what they judge to be their own best political interests. And it explains even less how a Democratic president can persuade many Republicans literally to abandon their constituencies and their own party to support legislation pushed by that symbol of all they

oppose.

A major part of the answer can be found fn Johnson’s lopsided 1964 election victory. The vote count on that occasion did more than give Johnson the landslide he so vigorously sought. It fragmented the Republican Party, reducing its effectiveness to a point as

low as that it experienced in the depths of the great depression. The Republican minority in Congress, as small as it is, could still be an effective rallying point of opposition if it had leadership, an articulate program of its own, and a voting constituency OB which it could rely. But ae of today it has none of these, and the potential exposition to the Johnsonian program is both

Incoherent and undisciplined.

The mounting drive for racial integration is also a major factor in Johnson’s congressional successes. Not many northern Republicans like the idea of having their party identified with the forces of segregation. And Johnson is exploiting this fact

to the hilt.

As far as things can be foreseeable, it is going to be a case of "Whatever Johnson wants, Johnson gets.”

• STATISTICAL DIFFICULTY—Mark Twain once said there are liars, damn liars and statistics. Labor Secretary Willard W. Wirt* feels somewhat the same way. His department is one of the principal producers of statistical material in the federal government, but in a recent talk about compiling figures, Wirtz said: "A man with one foot on a hot stove and another in a deep freezer—I suppose you could say that he is on the average com-

fortable.” • • • •

• PREPAREDNESS—A couple of tourists, a man and his wife, were sightseeing in the Capitol recently, when the hapless gentleman snagged his trousers on a piece of furniture. The rip was

obvious and somewhat embarrassing.

A house doorkeeper, witnessing the accident and wanting to

to be of assistance, escorted the nervous couple into an anteroom that happened to be the hang-

out for radio and television correspondents. To the surprise of the guard and the assembled

newsmen the wife whipped out a threaded needle from her bag and swiftly mended the tear. The rescued couple then went calmly on their tour leaving their audience with a slightly higher estimate of the caliber of tourists

who visit the national city.

What’s all the commotion about skintone colors in today’s bras, girdles and lingerie? At the recent showings, everyone was talking about these new "nude” shades, tinted to blend closely as possible into your own skin tone. How come? The answer stems from the fact that fashion designers are skimping clothes everywhere this year and skintone is the perfect underfashion shade to wear ’neath cut out dresses, one shoulder gowns, all those openworks in knits, laces—just about everything. "Nude” transparent bras actually started the whole skintone trend in underfashions. One of the prettiest that came to our attention is made by Lovable, in the sheerest wisp of nylon that gives you that new transparent look of almost no bra at all. Called "Bare Minimum,” it has just enough control to wear under all your

As an alternate there is another version of the same bra made of soft padded fiberfill for the girl who requires extra fullness or may be too shy to "bare.” Are you one of those gals who goes for wearing match-mates? Well, fear not! I’m happy to report that Lovable’s popular Anchors-A-Waist girdle is a perfect color mate in the skintone shade of the "nude” bras described above. I checked styles by other producers and found the same, so you are very much in luck if you are looking for skintone match-mates in bras and girdles...and it is the better to see through ’neath all those openworks in fashion this falL

a President Johnson said, “I hold it the iMbrK d U ty of the executive to insist on frugality in the expenditures.” The president from the South said, "I do not »ia<m that a head of department should have no other opinions than those of the president. He has the same right, in the conscientious discharge of duty, to entertain and express his opinions as the president.” President Johnson said, “I know it has been urged that the executive department is more likely to enlarge the sphere of its action than either of the other two branches of government.” However, he declared, "Interference with the Constitutional authority of the executive department is an evil that will inevitably sap the foundations of our federal system ... the wrong is more flagrant and dangerous when the powers so taken from the president are conferred upon subordinate executive officers, and especially upon military officers.” President Johnson said, “Notwithstanding a mendacious press; notwithstanding a subsidized gang of hirelings who have not ceased to traduce me, I have discharged my official duties and fulfilled my pledges. 4pd I say here tonight that if my predecessor had lived, the vials of wrath would have poured upon him.” The presidential utterances above were among those of Andrew Johnson [right], occupant of the White House a century ago. In 1865 he was under strong Republican attack in Congress and was being denounced by radical groups in the North. The great war was over but troops were being to fight Red men. in a struggle that would drag on for years. The public rose to two billion eight hundred and forty-six million on Sept. 1, but new appropriations were being urged for aid

to the newly emancipated, the poor, the war veterans.

Readers Are Asking . . .

WHAT causes abdominal adhesions after an operation? These adhesions are bands of strong fibrous scar tissue. After an operation in the abdomen, they occasionally form. Where there has been an infection, like peritonitis, adhesions may form around the intestine. Most of the adhesions do not interfere with the normal function of the intestinal tract after surgery. Only occasionally is it necessary to again operate on a paDr. Coleman tient to release any of the adhesions. Early diagnosis of abdominal conditions often prevent complications and reduce to a minimum the possibility of adhesions. Speedier and more delicate surgical methods, too, reduce adhesions. * * • What is meant by a “safe mole” on the face? A mole is a descriptive term popularly used to describe almost any kind of blemish. Actually a mole is a tiny growth of the skin that contains colored pigments. Moles can be brown or black, flat or raised and vary in size and shape. Neither the size, the shape nor its location determines whether it is safe or unsafe to the untrained eye. Only an expert can determine the true character of a mole and can make the decision for special treatment or surgical removal. e • e

j What causes cystitis? Cystitis is an infection or in- ; flammation of the urinary biadder, caused by bacteria. These 1 germs enter the bladder and sometimes invade the tiny tube# (ureters) that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Thi* infection is called pyelitis. modem antibiotics and sulfa drugs are very effective against pyelitis and cystitis and prevent the complications that formerly occurred with great frequency. • • • Is hoarseness always a dangerous sign? Hoarseness announces itself readily in all kinds of diseases of the larynx. Within this voice box two fine strands of muscular tissue^ about an inch long, are responsible for the sound. They are called the vocal cords. When we speak or sing the vocal cords come together. When we breathe, they separate. It is impossible to speak and breathe at the same time. Any condition that interferes with the movement of the vocal cords or disturbs their exact alignment causes hoarseness. Infection, vocal abuse or tiny nodes and tumors can produce hoarseness. Because hoarseness announces itself so loudly, treatment usually can begin early and result in successful return of the voice. While Dr. Coleman cannot undertake to answer individual letters, he will use readers’ questions in his column whenever possible and when they are of general interest.
