Cry-Babies
And Self Pity j
By Lawrence Gould
Do crying spells express self-pity?
Answer: Self-pity is generally
Involved, but there may be another
more or less unconscious factor,
namely, pent-up rage—the feeling,
mixed with fear, which primarily
provokes a baby’s crying. Anyone
who is addicted to periodic crying
spells is probably nursing a deep-
rooted grudge against someone to
ward whom he or she does not dare
act, or perhaps even feel resentful,
and expresses his or her rage in the
reproach which the crying implies.
The first step in dealing with a
woman who has crying spells might
well be to search for the grievances
which she is cherishing against her
husband.
Does suffering make you “strong”?
Answer: Not always, by any
means; its effect upon the average
person is more often to frighten or
embitter him. A child who grew up
without experience of pein or frus
tration would probably be incapable
of dealing with the hard knocks of
adult life just as one who had
never been exposed to “germs”
might die of the first infection he
encountered. But developing im
munity to measles does not leavt
a child in better health than if ht
never had had the disease. Noi
does learning to endure harsh treat
ment from his parents make a child
more “secure” than be would have
been if they had been kind to him.
Are you sure that your child
hears well?
Answer: If you are, you are in the
superior minority of parents. Ac
cording to Drs,- William G. Hardy
and Miriam D. Pauls of Johns Hop
kins University, five per cent of
children in the United States have
more or less impaired hearing,
which in many cases could be cured
or improved by early treatment.
Yet only eleven per cent of school
children have their hearing tested
regularly. It is all too easy to as
sume that a child who is slightly
deaf is stupid or “not paying atten
tion,” especially since there is
nothing visibly wrong with him. If
your child’s school does not provide
hearing tests, see that he gets
them elsewhere.

Allergy May Cause Headache
By Dr. James W. Barton -
S YOUNGSTEHS, a test of
strength was to hold one arm.
up sideways, in line with the shoul
der, elbow straight, and see how
long we could hold it there. When
the large muscle on top of the
shoulder got too painful and tired
to hold the arm out any longer, we
dropped the arm. The boy who
could hold out the longest was the
winner.
I think of this boyhood test
when I see so many men and
women suffering with pain in
the back of the neck, because
ibis pain is often caused by
holding the head in one position
for long periods of time at work,
or simply sitting carelessly in
a chair. Sometimes this care
less attitude allows pressure
from neck bones of the spine
to press on nerves coming out
from the spinal cord and cause
pain In neck, shoulder and
sometimes down the arm.
That our old enemy, allergy, may
be a cause of pain in the back of
the neck, and also headache, is
pointed out in Archives of Otol
aryngology (ear and throat) by Dr.
Theron G. Randolph (Northwestern
University). Dr. Randolph states
that headache and neckache are re
peatedly seen after the eating of
certain foods or inhaling house dust.
The headache and neckache disap
pear when these foods and house
dust are avoided.
That headache and neckache are
not the only signs of allergy in
these individuals is evident from
the fact that such signs as attacks
of sneezing, running nose, cramps
in abdomen and diarrhea, nausea,
dizziness and hives are usually
present. Other muscle groups af
fected, besides those in the neck,
are those of the legs, back, chest,
and abdomen.
In previous articles this pain, in
the muscles of the neck has been
holding the head in the one position
tenses the muscles and nerves, but
Dr. Randolph thinks it results from
allergic fatigue.

Irresponsible Congress
*|»HE irresponsible antics of this
A congress in both house and sen
ate would indicate that some mem
bers of both houses are not only
willing to gamble on their own
political future, but are gambling
with the future security of the na
tion-all in an effort to slap at
President Truman
This state of affairs was never
more obvious in the house debate
over extension of the national pro
duction act when many members
of this body, acting for all the
world like a bunch of over-grown
children placing a tack on teacher’s
chair, snickered and chortled as
they emasculated the controls bill
into a document which made no
sense whatsoever.
Your congressmen probably will
tell you, “of course I voted for the
controls bill”. Ask him, however,
how he voted while the house was
In committee of the whole, when no
votes were recorded and all were
on teller or division votes. Ask
him how he voted on amendments
sent direct to the floor by lobby
ists for the'cattlemen’s association
as they brazenly strode up and down
the corridors of the capitol, conspic
uous from one end of the hall to the
other by their ten-gallon hats. The
house was so obviously in control
of the lobbyists that more than one
congressman went on record as
pointing out how these representa
tives of the special interest groups
were parading -up and down outside
the chamber, flaunting their power
and their control.
The Republican and southern
Democrat coalition was in the
saddle and riding high. Crip
pling amendment after crip
pling amendment was bolted
through with great glee. Yet
these congressmen voting
against the welfare of the peo
ple, well knew, as they voted,
that a conference committee of
saner men, meeting in quieter
and more deliberate surround
ings would take them off the
hook.
A few more responsible Repub
licans, led, surprisingly by Clarence
Brown of Ohio, withstood the grins
of a majority of their Republican
brethren and voted with a few ad
ministration stalwarts.
• • •
Warning Issued .
There is little doubt but that the
truce talks in Korea played a role
in the attitude of those who voted
to scuttle the controls act. And
this led Manly Fleischm*tnn, ad
ministrator of the defense produc
tion administration and of the na
tional production authority to warn:
“If we permit the end of hostilities
In Korea to signal any relaxation
of effort, we will be gambling with
our future security and we will
(ail to meet the minimum goals of
the defense program on schedule—
that is by 1953.”
• • •
Conflicting Amendments
As the controls act left the house
and went to conference committee
many amendtnents conflicted, some
nullified others; no one in the House
knew what the bill contained. And
then the President erupted in the
midst of the chaos with his mid
year economic report with the state
ment that not only is there no justi
fication for slackening defense ef
forts, but that we probably will
have to increase our military ef
forts whether or not there is a
Korean armistice. Whether the
President’s report will have effect
on congress remains to be seen.
However, it appears to this
column that the President has
lost all control of the congress.
In the house, the veteran Sam
Rayburn as speaker, either
does not have the will or the
power to run that body as he
formerly did. In the senate,
the majority leader. Senator
McFarland of Arizona, has not
seen eye to eye with the admin
istration on some legislation
and he is worried about his
own reelection.

A Stubborn Man
President Truman is a stubborn
man. He does not give way easily
when he believes he is right. And
he does believe he is. But he failed
to sell the country on the internal
security program. He has done
much better on the foreign pro
gram. He has preached inflation,
but people are not frightened be
cause they do not know what it is.

Inflation such as have other coun

MacArthur Speech
In his latest speech, called one of
his most powerful since his return

indecisive; American foreign pol

Use Fruits, Eggs, Milk
To Help Make Desserts
Popular and Nutritious
CARE FOR SOMETHING NEW in
desserts? Who wouldn’t, especially
when they’re delectable to eat and
add something to the nutritional
status of the
meal?
Desserts should
not be just some
thing sweet and
caloric; they
should serve
some concrete
purpose in the
diet, such as adding egg^, milk and
fruit which are not eaten as a first
course or supplement.
If any homemaker is having diffi
culties with her family taking
what they should in the way of
food, dessert is an easy, simple
way to serve the daily requirement
of health-giving elements.
Here’s a good dessert for all
members of the family, and pretty
too:
*Spanish Coconut Cream

1% envelopes onflavored gelatin
3 cups milk
% cup granulated sugar

in top of double boiler with 2 table
spoons sugar and salt. Add softened
gelatin, stirring until dissolved.
Beat egg yolks, pour some over the
hot milk mixture, while stirring.
Return to double boiler and con
tinue cooking, stirring constantly,
over hot water for about 7 minutes,
or until mixture coats the spoon.
Beat egg whites until stiff; gradual

beating. Fold into custard’mixture
that has been chilled until sirupy.
Add vanilla and coconut and blend.
Turn into molds that have been
rinsed with cold water; chill. Un
mold and serve with Cherry-
Almond sauce.
You don’t always have to get
the citrus fruit at breakfast, es
pecially when you can include
grapefruit segments along with
berries in season or peaches in
a delightful, tangy cobbler like
this. Hard sauce molded In but

CURTAIN CALL
HAT summer glare getting you
hot and bothered? And when you
try to shut it out, with those pretty
drapes, you shut out the gentle sum
mer breezes, too?
| Why don’t you give
the drapes a rest,
and get yourself
some sheer glass
r curtains?
Your store has
’em, already made
up in all the lengths
and widths, to suit the windows you
want to shade. Or, if you want to
make ’em yourself, as most of you
do, that favorite clerk of yours can
show you all the fabrics you could
desire to choose from!
Nylon, celanese, and marquisette
are among the favorite materials
but if you’re sewing yourself, net,
fine or coarse mesh, scrim and
voile are the easiest to measure and
sew. Yea, even that elegant ma
terial so loved by your grandmoth
er, Lace, is available—and it wears
like iron.
You’ll be amazed at how sheer
curtains soften harsh lights, shut
out unattractive views from within,
and unwelcome viewers from with
out, for your greater privacy! And
sheer curtains welcome air, and the
sunshine from which all glare is
filtered away. For summer time,
curtains are your best bet And the
chances are that you’ll like the look
of them so well that you’ll leava
’em up throughout the winter, along
with those colorful drapes, straight
or draw, and change the aspect of
your room day and night.
The quality of sheer curtains and
materials, as your favorite clerk
will tell you, is determined largely
by the fibers used, the way they’re
spun, and the way the cloth is
woven and finished. Sheer fabrics
of good quality have long, fine fib
ers of cotton, combed, evenly spun
and tightly twisted. Ask to see the
mercerized materials, and those
with other chemical treatments.
They’re really a buy, for they’re
lustrous, and soil and crush-resis
tant. All these chemically-treated
materials are labeled, so read while
you shop. It pays. Then, if you want
to test the fabric, wad it up in your
fist. If it springs back into shape
you can cheer, for it’ll need little
pressing!
SEE THAT SELVAGE
Most of the available information
as to shrinkage and colorfastness
is on the label on the selvage of the
raw material. When figuring how
many yards you wijl have to buy,
don’t skimp, or your curtains will
be skimpy. Count on 100% fulness
in width, enough material to be
twice the width of the space to be
covered. Be generous, too, about
your lengthwise measurements al
lowing at least 8 inches to the yard.
As to colorfastness, beware of
those just marked colorfast, period.
Have your clerk show you the more
specific labels, “colorfast to wash
ing” and “colorfast to dry clean
ing”, and take his or her word on
the colorfastness to- strong light.
That friendly favorite clerk may
even let you have, not only small
samples to try out for color, but
various lengths to try out against
your windows, because only by ex
periment on the scene can you be
positive it’s just what you want!
