THE DISSENTING opinions
in the recent U. S. Supreme
Court legislative apportionment
decisions clearly indicate how
far the court has strayed from
its constitutional role in our gov
ernment.
Said Justice Stewart: “The
court’s dracon
ian pronounce
ment, which
makes uncon
stitutional the
legislatures of
most of the 50
states, finds no
support in the
words of the
Constitution, in any prior de
cision of this court, or in the
175-year political history of our
federal union. With all respect,
I am convinced these decisions
mark a long step backward into
that unhappy era when a ma
jority of the members of this
court were thought by many to
have convinced themselves and
each other that the demands of
the Constitution were to be
measured not by what it says,
but by their own notions of wise
political theory.”
Said Justice Harlan: “These
decisions give support to a cur
rent mistaken view of the Con
stitution and the constitutional
function of this court. This view,
in a nutshell, is that every ma
jor social ill in this country can
find its cure in some constitu
tional ‘principle,’ and that this
court should ‘take the lead’ in
promoting reform wien other
branches of government fail to
act. The Constitution is not a
panacea for every blot upon the
public welfare, nor should this
court, ordained as a judicial
body, be thought of as a gen-

THESE ARE INDEED strong
indictments of the Supreme
Court, but well-justified, I be
lieve. In one decision after an
other, the court digs deeper and
deeper into the foundations of
our republican form of govern
ment.
Naturally, ■ many Americans
have become greatly concerned
about the continued usurpation
by the court of legislative au
thority, by taking unto itself
powers it was never meant to
have under the Constitution.
By taking our country into
’ the realm of government by ju
dicial decree, the Supreme Court
has joined hands with the execu
tive branch which also is by
passing Congress and attempt
ing to run things by executive
order. Not satisfied with its con
stitutional responsibility to in
; terpret the law and the Consti
tution, this court, in effect,
: makes the law and attempts to
' instigate social reform for the
entire country.
And in the process, the Con
stitution is twisted beyond rec
■ ognition. The federal govern
i ment assumes more and more
| power over the states, and the
’ rights and liberties of the peo
ple to govern themselves dwin
die away.
Unless the present trend is
reversed, unless the court is
curbed, I fear that local self
government will become a thing
of the past.

HOME NOTES
By WILLIE LEGGITT
: Cleaning Leather Garments
How to clean leather or simu-
I lated leather is a problem which
[ confronts most every household,
j Leather, as a complete garment
jor as trim, is high fashion today.
Wet cleaning has been recom-
I mended for simulated leathers
: provided all parts of the garment,
| including the lining, can with
i stand such treatment satisfactor
i ily.
It has been reported that some
limitation suedes may withstand
I one of two dry cleanings in pe
j troleum solvent, then stiffen in
I the next dry cleaning. For this
I reason, it’s recommended that this
I type of garment not be dry clean
|ed unless it is permanently lab
| eled by the manufacturer as “dry
i eleanable.”
So, look for and read the labels
I on hangtags before attempting to
| clean leather garments.

Planting Shrubs In The Summer
If you have the thought of
planting shrubs during the sum
mer months, don’t be too hasty.
Extension Service Horticulturist,
■Gerald E. Smith, at the Univer
sity of Georgia says it’s best not
|to move shrubs during this per
; iod. Even the planting of balled
I and burlapped shrubs is not gen-
I erally recommended.
I Container growth nursery stock,
| however, can be planted almost
■ any time of the year without dif
j ficulties if proper precautions are
| taken. If shrubs are purchased
jin containers, they may be re
j moved from the containers with
[ little or no shock to the plant.
The one important considera
| tion is that these shrubs must be
I watered very frequently during
I their first growing season. Con
tainer nursery stock have their
root systems in a very confined
area. Therefore, after they are
! planted in the soil, they must be
I watered quite frequently since the
| soil around these roots loses mois
। ture very fast.
An additional precaution is to
[mulch the shrubs heavily to re-
I tain the water that is added in
| the soil and to prevent its evapo
| ration into the air.
j The shrubs should be fertilized
| also to stimulate as much new
I growth as possible. It’s quite easy
’ to over-fertilize young shrubs.

[ without bleach does not kill all
disease-causing bacterial in the

Agriculture research has shown.

of bacteria can survive and be

bers. The danger can be even
greater in community laundry
machines used by many families.

nary disinfectants should be add
ed to the rinse water.
Phenolic and pine oil disinfec
tants can be added to either the
rinse or the wash cycle, and chlo
rine bleach to the wash water. In
each case, the label tells how
much of each type of disinfectant
to use to sanitize the laundry.
Pink And Blue Hydrangeas
Most flowers are set in their
ways but the hydrangea plant al
lows you to change the color of
its flowers if you so desire. They
are usually pink but you can
change them to blue.
Just drench the soil thoroughly
two or three times with a solu
tion of one pound of aluminum in
five gallons of water. Then fer
tilize lightly.
If you prefer the pink, a high
phosphate fertilizer, such as 15-
30-15 in the water will keep them
that way.
Pink or blue—it’s up to you.

Hemorrhoids
Plague Many
One of the prices man has had
to pay for his upright posture is
that of hermorrhoidal disease.
Hemorrhoids, quite simply, are
collections of varicose veins
around, the lower end of the rec
tum. Because of man’s erect pos
ture, the force of the pull of
gravity, pressure of the abdomen
on the lower rectum and other
factors, the veins which drain the
lower rectum tend to become ex
cessively large. As they do, they
tend to protrude from within the
rectum and around the anus.
Hemorrhoids originating inside
the rectum are covered by a layer
of mucous membrane and are
called internal hemorrhoids. Veins
outside the rectum and covered
by skin are caller external hem
orrhoids. The two groups are con
nected by veins and when hem
orrhoidal disease occurs, both
groups are usually involved.
When hemorrhoidal tissue pro
trudes, it becomes irritated and
may bleed. Sometimes little clots
form in the veins, causing intense
pain and swelling.
Occasionally, hemorrhoids are
the sign of more serious disease.
For this reason, a physician ex
amining or treating a patient for
hemorrhoids may examine the
lower bowel by a lighted instru
ment called a proctoscope. It en
ables him to see the lower bowel
by a lighted instrument called a
proctoscope. It enables him to see
the lower bowel and to determine
if a problem besides hemorrhoids
is present.
Hemorrhoidal disease is ex
tremely widespread. It results in
a tremendous amount of discom
fort and disability.
Fortunately, however, most cas
es can be managed quite conser
vatively.
Hot baths, gentle redirection of
hemorrhoidal tissue by the fing
ers, careful cleansing of the anal
area, and the use of suppositories
to shrink mucous membranes and
local anesthetics provide comfort.
If the hemorrhoids protrude after
each bowel movement, they should
be gently replaced with the fing
ers and the area carefully washed.
This practice alone may prevent
much distress and make surgery
unnecessary.
When conservative measures
fail, hemorrhoids can be removed
by surgery. Such surgery, called
hemorrhoidectomy, has acquired
the reputation of being quite pain
ful. However, recent improve
ments in surgical techniques and
anesthetics have made surgery of
these sensitive tissues less painful.
Editor’s Note: Do you have a
subject you would like Doc MAG
to discuss in this column? If so,
send your question or request on
a postcard to Doc MAG Says, The
Medical Association of Georgia,
938 Peachtree Street, N.E., Atlan
ta, Georgia 30309.
DOC MAG SAYS: Hemorrhoids,
often called “piles,” are a com
mon ailment resulting from a
number of factors, including man’s
upright posture. They usually can
be managed satisfactorily with
conservative treatment. If neces
sary, however, they can be re
moved surgically without exces
sive pain.
