of Harmful Body Waste
Tour kidney, are coutently fill.ling
waste matter from the blood stream. But
kidneys sometimes lag in their work—do
not act as Nature intended—fail to re
move imparities that, if retained, may
poison the system and opaet the whole
body machinery.
Symptoms may be nagging backache,
persistent headache, attacks of dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, puffiness
under the eyes—a feeling of nervous
anxiety and loss of pep and strength.
Other signs of kidney or bladder dis
order are sometimes burning, scanty or
too frequent urination.

FEAR OF COAL STRIKE
Biggest problem on the labor hori
zon is the definitely looming pos-
siblity of a national coal strike on
April 1. Industry fears it, the gov
ernment fears it, but even more,
perhaps, other labor leaders fear it.
They fear that bull-headed John
L. Lewis, head of the miners, will
precipitate a strike which will
blacken the eye of the entire labor
movement, further undermining
public confidence in labor. “Bull
Jack” Lewis, as they call him, be
longs neither to the AFL nor the
CIO, and the executives of both are
worried over the effect which a
strike called by the miners would
have on their organizations. For,
they point out, the public does not
discriminate between different la
bor unions in time of crisis.
Negotiations for a new coal con
tract are scheduled to begin March
1 between John L. Lewis and the
coal operators. This gives 30 days in
which to reach .an agreement. Last
year, however, the negotiations
started earlier, and, even so, didn’t
conclude by March 31.
Meanwhile, Secretary Ickes,
in order to head off a mine shut
down, has sent a letter both to
the coal operators and John
L. Lewis proposing that they
continue the present wage
agreement for another year. The
coal operators are onderstood to
be ready to agree to this pro
posal.
John L. Lewis’s office, however,
sent a delaying reply. His secre
tary wrote Ickes that Lewis was
“absent from the city.” This prob
ably means that Lewis is conferring
with his mine lieutenants before
he sends Ickes a final decision.

WHY RUSSIANS WAITED
U. S. military strategists now dis
close two reasons why the great
Russian winter offensive was de
layed.
The first problem was one of sup
plies. Although the red army had
the bulk of the equipment it
needed, deliveries of several rela
tively small but highly important
items were delayed.
One of the items they waited for
was several million tons of canned
beef which midwestem packing
firms have been producing since
Russia entered the war.
Red army front-line troops live al
most entirely on this canned beef
during offensives. The packers knew
they had a deadline to make on
their order, but couldn’t get enough
manpower to do the job. As the
days rolled by, even office work
ers were drafted to the pro
duction line. However, the shipment
wasn’t ready until weeks after the
date set by the Russians. The same
was true of several other impor
tant products. In the end, the Brit
ish dipped into their own stockpiles
in England, and shipped the neces
sary material to fully equip the
Red army.
Finally, when the great of
fensive was about to start in
Mid-December, an unseasonable
thaw set in on the eastern
front, bogging down the Red
army equipment. The Russians
had massed tremendous new
Stalin tanks, larger than any
thing either the Germans or the
other Allies have seen. These
could not be moved except over
frozen terrain. When the front
froze solid again, Stalin gave the
word and the long-delayed win
ter offensive began.

BRITISH PROPOSE KEEPING
HIROHITO
Very little appeared in the papers
about it, but highly important poli
cies regarding future relations with
Japan were discussed at the recent
institute of Pacific relations at Hot
Springs, Va. Most important of all
was a proposal by the British to
retain Emperor Hirohito and the
Japanese ruling class in the post
war setup of Japan.
Sir Paul Butler, leading adviser
to the British foreign office, led the
appeal for Hirohito.
Behind closed doors at the swank
Homestead hotel, Butler made this
blunt pronouncement: “No alterna
tive to a monarchial system, under
the present emperor or some other
member of his family, is likely to
provide the focus of stability which
will be essential if the state is not
to dissolve into chaos in the impend
ing crisis.”
Other United Nations delegates
also were vigorously opposed to
the British policy of appeasing the
emperor. Most significant of all was
the position of the British domin
ions—Canada, Aunt^alia and New
Zealand—which split with the dele
gation from the British Isles itself.

Italians before somebody tipped him
off to change the form of the proc
lamations he issued as military
commissioner in Rome. Poletti be
gan his proclamations with ‘To,

years Italians were fed up reading
proclamations which began ‘To,

India’s Sikhs Honor Their Royal Martyrs
The Sikhs are the warriors of “Mother India.” Leader of the 5 million is the Maharajah of Patiala, 33,
of the state of Patiala. On December 27 they staged a great festival to honor "the founder of their religion.
Guru Gobind Singh, and his two sons who became martyrs. The story goes that the sons of Guru were
taken and held hostage by Moslems in an attempt to fdrqe’Hheir father to give up his religion. He refused,
and the Moslems built a tomb around the seven and niuefyear-old boys, burying them alive. Center shows

Man About Town:
The ex-convict whose plot to kid
nap Betty Grable was interrupted is
last-named Williams. She still has
a guard, and her father and husband
tote gats. . . . The O.D.T. will order
all dining cars removed from choo-
choos traveling less than 350 miles.
. . . The Newspaper Guild will in
vade the radio field (to organize it)
next Summer.
The colynm forwardea several let
ters from worried bond buyers who
heard enemy-planted rumors that
savings bonds wouldn’t be redeemed
in accordance with their terms. . . .
The U. S. Treasury debunks the
rumors with this statement: “The
rumors are absolutely without foun
dation. The U. S. Gov’t has never
defaulted in the payment of its
debts. Since the Congress has am
ple power to provide for meeting
all obligations of the gov’t (when
due) there can be no doubt that its
promise to pay its obligations (when
due) will be carried out. Undoubt
edly subversive activity in this coun
try is responsible for spreading of
such misinformation. By making
known the true facts you could do
much to discount the wholly unfound
ed rumors.—D. W. Bell, Treasury
Dep’t, Washington.”
The news that Donald Nelson
would marry the young widow Col-
boume was tipped here first on De
cember 13, 1943, this way: “We
promise to omit the name until he
is freed. Watch for the name of
Mrs. Paul Strashon’s next groom.
She’s a widow. He is one of Amer
ica’s most famed leaders.” . . .
J. A. Brunner (Chief of the Veterans
of Foreign Wars) investigated our
warning about a subversive exec,
among the group and fired him.
One of the playbores is so wor
ried about his induction via the work
or fight bill’s becoming a law he’s en
gaged a man to stay in Washington
to send him daily reports on its prog
ress. . . . Another of the same set
(afraid of losing his draft-proof sta
tus if seen in public with his dolls)
stays home, which is practically a
night club. . . . Add lucky timing:
"They Told Me,” by Leonard Lyons
in This Week. Deals with the war’s
top men and their confabs. . . . One
of the better-known socialice made
a terrific odor at Penn Station the
other ayem when she found she
cJuldn’t buy two compartments to
Florida plus three for her servants!
The nation’s No. 1 sin town is
Washington. Ever since the FBI
lost that “black spook” case the
joynts are jumpin’. . . . How Tempus
Fugits Dep’t: Davey Lee, who sat
on A. Jolson’s lap in “Sonny Boy,"
is now a pilot in the S. Pacific for
Uncle Samson. . . . T. Dorsey’s book
ing at the 400 on Feb. 16th will guar
antee him $6,000 per week against a
percentage. A record, we think, for
a nitery. ... A WAC private sta

Sue Ryan (the Shuberts’ most valu
able property since “Blossom

parent of the hit show, “The Late
George Apley,” readying to cover the
Pacific arena soon. . . . Music czar
Petrillo, who will try to invade the
newsreal music field, alleging news

“If you were out on this desert
where would you sleep?” . . . The

to which the snapper is: “I wouldn’t.
I’d just go around the corner (turn

recent crisis. . . . Mussolini, our na

ing that his Nazi friends not only

Gen’l Guderian will be replaced as
