Hopeiuls Spill Political Bunk;
f
Sufier From Swelled Heads
: BY PETER EDSON
i NEA Washington Correspondent y
CHICAGO.—(NEA)—Once upon a Time—which
1s the way all good Fables begin—there was a Can
didate for the Presidency who came right out and
gaid:
“My Chances for winning this Nomination are
Yousy. 1 teally don’t know what I'm doing in this
Race at all, But in a Weak Moment, suffering from
a Sudden Attack of Swellheadedness and after
looking ever the Shortcomings of my Rivals, I de
cided @ toss my Hat into the Ring.
“I haven't got nearly as many Delegates as I
claim. I haven’t the slightest Idea where I can get
any more, unless I can buy ’em with Buttons. If I
win, 1t will be Nothing short of a Miracle or just
Plain Dumnb Luck.”
if any candidate for the Democratic nomination
for the presidency came out with such a statement
of stark honesty today, it would probably sweep
tha convention right off its feet.
For what Chicago has been witnessing is the
exact opposite to the fable above. More impure po
litical bunk has been spilled here in the past week
than in any comparable period of American his=
tory.
The number of candidates for the Democratic
presidential nemination on the eve of the conven
tion was 18—and not 16 as reported in this space a
couple of davs ago. i
The other starters overlooked in_the shuffle of
pre-convention confusion are Senator William J.
Fulbright of Arkansas and Senator Warren G.
Manguson of Washington. If the list doesn’t pass 20
Lefore the nominations are closed, it will be only
because the entire convention has a paralytic stroke.
DARE POLFITCAL LIGHTNING TO MISS
With some new political dark horses being un
loaded from aimost every boxcar and transport
plane pdssing through Chicago, there’s only one
safe prediction. It is that all these candidates save
one are going to be proved wrong when the final
vote is counted. .
Vet all these candidates or their managers and
flunkies have been strutting around Chicago, their
chests swelled bigger than an Illinois barn, studded
with buttons and just daring the political lightning
to miss.
To say thai they're all liars might be putting it a
Lit strongly. Rather, this is a manifestation of the
strange, psychopathic malady that afflicts the coun
try as regularly as a plague of 17-year locusts, only
four times as often.
Come national convention time, an epidemic of
presidential hocf-and-mouth disease breaks out.
The srmplums aré easily recognized. Those afflict
ed go hoofing it about the country, frothing at the
mouth about what great men they are.
“] am the man to beat General Eisenhower,”
says Senator Richard Russell of Georgia, predicting
he'll win on fifth or sixth ballot.
EGOTISM AND FLATTERY GETS THEM ALL
Senator Robert S. Kerr of Oklahoma says only
President Truman can stop him. Having 38 first
ballot votes sure, Kerr needs only 578 to win.
W. Averell Harriman, a multi-millionaire him
self, scorns General Eisenhower as being the cap
tive of the rich Old Guard.
Senator Estes Kefauver of Tennessee talks big
about General Eisenhower’s nomination having en
hanced his own—Kefauver's—chances for Demo
eratic vietory, but fails to show how this would
work.
On an exactly opposite tack Governor Adlai
Stevenson of Illinois lets on he doesn't want the
nomination at all. If he should not aceept the draft,
somebody whose initials are A. S. might be made
to look awfully silly.
The spectacie of Vice President Alben W. Bark
ley taking himself seriously is one of the sadder
sights of this convention.
But for that matter, what is it that makes any of
them think they’ll win? It is a strange form of ego
tism, overwhelming ambition and susceptibility to
flattery by the people who ride around on their
coattails, that gets them all. g
Candidates for the presidency just don't dare
admit the truth about their prospects. Or rather,
their lack of prospects.
And when they all say with such vehemence that
they have no interest in the second place on the
ticket if they can’t be first, yust ask them who do
they think they’re kiddin'?
I'm net just a crazy kid. I mean business.—John
ny Arzoomanian, 13-year-old student, who twice
failed to get the Army to send him to Korea,
The main purpose of the convention is to resolve
differences within the party, so that sincere Repub-
lican men and women can reach a meeting of minds
~—CGuy Gabrielson, GOP National Chairman.
The (Democratic) party has become captive to
the schemers and planners who have infiltrated its
ranks of leadership to set the course toward social
istic regimentation.—General Dcuglas MacArthur,
A political party whose members steal from one
another cant be trusted to run the government of
the United States. — Senator Robert S. Kerr (D.-
Oklahoma).

A Change Of Heart By France
Is Not The Way To lke’s Hears
From Europe come reports, disquieting if true,
that France is sliding away from her earlier enthus
iasm for a European army and now favors a more
nationalistic tie-up with England.
The cause for such an action would not be hard
to see. France looks with increasing concern upon
the continued resurgene of her ancient enemy, Ger
many, as a European power,
France realizes at the same time that the rise of
Western Germany, at least, is due in some part to
the United States, which has striven hard to get the
Bonn Republic to take a strong place in the Euro
pean army.
So, seeking some balance against the growing
power of Gerimany, France reportedly Is tending
toward ties with England, which has stood firm in
its position not to join a European army.
This shift in attitude on the part of the French,
if such it can be called at this stage, comes at a
strange time. :
It might be thought that following Gener#l
Eisenhower’'s nomination for the presidency, the
prestige of that favorite American of the French
would make itself felt in sentiment favoring West
ern European union, one of his favorite programs.
Certainly, if General Eisenhower should be elect
ed in.Nvember, Western Eurcope could expect to
have an American chief of state as symmpathetic to
their prdblems as President Truman has been. And
certainly France knows that the way to a man’s
heart is not by slighting his pet projects.
Golden Chance Doesn’t Pass
Him By
They’ve discovered gold again. And naturally it’s
at one of the most inconvenient places in the whole
Western Hemisphere. Why can’t gold ever get itself
discovered some place where man doesn’t have to
practically kill himself getting at it?
Klondike, Yukon, Leadville. And now the latest
place in this part of the world is on the Jari River
in one of the wildest sections of wild Brazil,
But thousands of adventurers are stieaming into
the area. To get to the gold country they have to
fight their way for three weeks up a river that has
22 waterfalls and rapids.
The area is just north of the Equator and abounds
in all kinds of tropical ills like malaria and similar
fevers. The jungle must be fought and conquered
as if it were a living thing. ¢
The wildlife is both wild and lively. Here is the
home of the anaconda, believed by some to be the
world’s largest snake. It reputedly reaches a length
of 30 feet and more.
One of the smartest operators in the Brazil gold
rush is a citizen named Alculumbre. You don’t
catch him battling anacondas and waterfalls and
malaria. He stays back in a relatively comfortable
town and stakes the glory boys who are doing the
real hunting. y
When they come back out he collects his percent
age from their strikes. So far, he's supposed to have
80 percent profits on investments totaling about
$50,000. :
Alculumbre seems to have the system, all right.
At least until they get around to discovering gold
right beside the new hotel at Third and Pine streets
where a nran can get a cool bath and a good night's
sleep after a hard day of prospecting.
No Better Models?
Some biologists believe that physical evolution of
man has been completed. The Intemetionnl Sym
posium on Anthropology heard a paper in which it
was argued that civilization could probably bring
nothing but degeneration to man’s body in the
future, although thé human brain might progress in
social skills and culture, such as tool-making.
The view that physical evolution has ended
doesn’t quite fit into the principle of natural selec~
tion, which holds that environment influences
changes in the species. Man has evolved in response
to the conditions of existence. The argument that,
having achieved a satisfactory adaptation to his
environment, his evolution {s complete appears to
exclude the possibility of further changes in envir
onmeent. In this unstable universe nothing is cer
tain except change.
A much hotter or colder climate, more or less
moisture in the atmosphere, the growth of power
ful new enemies among the insects and the bacte
ria, all of which are theoretically possible, might
have direct effects on physical man. They could
kill off all who were unable to adapt themselves to
the new conditions and preserve only those able to
achieve mutations which it is difficult to imagine,
No conceivable change great enough to affect hu
man life throughout the world would be percept
ible in fewer than hundreds of generations. Nature
works slowly. It took her hundreds of thousands of
years to develop what currently passes for mran.
The kid (Bobby Shantz) is a wonder. If that'’s the
kind of stuff he throws, I am glad we don’t have to
face him anymore.—Leo Durocher, after All-Star
game,
Once upon a time Americans lived on hambur
gers when they were broke. Now they go broke if
they try living on hamburgers. — Rep. Joseph W,
Martin.
Blatherskites is the word for congressional Red
Probers. The end of "American comedy is in sight,
and the theater’s gone to hell. Who can write where

Child’s Insecurity May Delay
Control Of Natural Functions
By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D.
Writien for NEA Service
When they happen to think
about it, parents do not expeet
their babies to behave like grown
ups. But they do often become
unduly concerned when their
“pride and joy” does not get con
trol over his or her natural func
tions as early in life as some
neighbor’s child.
A healthy baby usually begins
to establish bowel control when
between one and two years old.
When the baby is nine or 10
months old it can be placed foz
a short period on the “potty.” This
should be done at first with the
child lying down, as it is not able
to sit up safely yet.
Most infants begin to catch on
quickly, especially if praise is
given when the desired results
occur. The “potty” should be used
regularly at the same time of day,
usually after the first morning
meal. But don’t wear out either
the mother or the baby by keep
ing it up too long if success is not
achieved.
The infant enjoys cleanliness
and appreciates the praise re
ceived. The parents ought not to
get cross when the infant fails.
Once bowel control has become
established and the child is a little
older, the responsibility should be
placed on the " child instead of
the parent.
In small babies the process of
emptying the bladder is automatie.
As soon as the bladder is stretched
to a certain point, the nerves carry
the message to the spinal cord and
the bladder is emptied without
futher ado.
Guradually, the sensation of a
full bladder begins to be carried
to the brain itself, and when this
develops, it «is possible for the
child to control urination. Until
the message is received in the
brain, however, it is useless to ex
gect something the baby cannot
0.
UNCERTAINTY IS CAUSE
In some cases, wetting beyond
the usual age may reflect a feel
ing of insecurity. After the eva
curation of children from London
to the country at the time of the
“bombing blitz” there was an
increase in bed wetting in the
eclder children. This was the re
sult of the understanable feeling
of uncertainty and insecurity to
which these children were sub
jected.
Similar things can happen to
children who live where the

parents quarrel, in broken homes,
or those in which one child is, or
seems to be, more favored by the
parents than another. In fact, al
most anything which makes a
young child feel insecure may
delay control of bodily functions.
Even if you are a careful driver,
the Georgia State Patrol warns
you to look out for people on the
road who aren’t as careful as you.
Drive defensively always; it
makes no difference to a dead
man who was at fault and even a
non-fatal accident is always an
unpleasant and costly experience
for all concerned.

At Navy Station
Milton P. Jarnagin, Jr., of Ath
ens, has accepted a Federal Civil
Service appointment as a Mathe
matician at the Naval Aviation
Ordnance Test Station at Chinco
teague, Virginia.
The Chincoteague Naval Station
is located on the Delmarva Pen
insula approximately five miles
south of the Maryland state line
and ten miles inland from the At
lantie seaboard. The Station is en
gaged in test and development of
naval aviation ordnance equip
ment, such as air-craft guns, rock
ets, and their components, fire
confrol mechanisms, and short
range ,guided missiles. For the
conduct of this highly important
work, the Station has assembled
a staff comprising some of the
leading mathematicians, physi-
cists, and engineers of the coun
try. Faei ] :
In his capacity as a Mathema
tician, Mr. Jarnagin will be con
cerned with the reduction of field
data for guided missiles and ord
nance weapons. The reduction of
balistic data involves the applica
tion of advanced mathematical
techniques for determining the
trajectory of missiles in flight and
measuring velceity, acceleration,
pitch, roli, yaw, and drag of mis
siles, Mr. Jarnagin will reside in
Government quarters on the naval
installation.
Mr. Jarnagin, g native of Ath
ens, Georgia, is a graduaic of the
University of Georgia. From 1931
so 1934 he was Rhodes scholar
from Georgia at Oxford Univers
ity in England. He has also studied
mathematies at Harvard Univers
ity and Duke University, having
been awarded a Ph.D. degree from
the latter school in 1949.
From 1929 to 1931, Mr. Jarnagin
was a mathematics instructor at
the University of Georgia. During
1936 and 1937 he was employed
by the Rodman Chemical Com
pany in Verona, Pennsylvania,
where he participated in experi
ments in case-hardening and heat
treatment of steel. During World
War II he served in the Navy,
where he instructed on the use
of the Springfield and Carbine
rifles, Since the War, he has been
a mathematies instructor at Duke
University and most recently at
the University of Maryland. He is

One of the first eight counties in Georgia, Burke was
named for the fil"eat champion of American liberiy,
Edmund Burke. In this old and historical county, many
land owmers possess original llgrantsfl from the Kmi of
England. Ideal climate and soil conditions make Burke a
. state leader in cotton production. Other products are
. vegetables, fruits, poultry, and cattle. The county seat of
Wa boro is the home of several industries—llumber
mflg‘eglywood factory, cofton gin, camneries, and an
insecticides factory.
- In this and other Georgia counties, the United States
Brewers Foundation works constantly to maintain whole
some conditions where beer and ale are sold. Close at
tention is given areas near camps of the Armed Forces, and
both military officials and Georgia law enforcement officers
¢ have commended the Foundation’s self-regulation pro
gram. Retailer educational meetings offer sound sugges
. tions for continued operation in the community’s interest.
