McUheyne, Now Is His Time to Ask Why?, : The most important word for. this "country today is ."Why?". A lot; of broad general assertions are going the rounds, and there is a dangerous tendency to accept them at JTace value. f . , . , . , : f Hitler, in his invaluable treatise in "Mein Kampf" on jhow to-manipulate the mob, makes it clear that the main thing is repetition. No matter how ridiculous a thing is, he ; maintains, if you repeat it of ten enough and loudly enough people begin to believe it. ; " That is the danger in some of the things you begin to ;hear repeated these days. What's needed is a lot of people ) who will set up every time one of these assertions is made ', and ask. "Why ?" And demand very specific answers. - I Here are a few to practice on: . "If it goes badly with the Allies in Europe, the United ' States must inevitably be drawn into the war . . . ' ; Why? ' . If Holland is'invaded and the Japanese grab the Dutch East Indies, the United States must send its fleet over 9000 miles to prevent it. Why? . . - ' : Guam, 9200 miles away, should be strongly fortified. -..: . i Why? (Be very specific No generalities about "interests." "inter-ests." What.interests?") -.

But if staying out of a party row lost Taft a delegation in Maryland, it apparently won hjm one In , West Virginia. Neither Uaft ncr Dewey has entered the primary there, but some smart preliminary spade work seems to have given Taft the delegates. Taft "Samplers : In West Virginia Several weeks ago the Taft crowd decided to find out exact ly what their prospects were In West Virginia They sent a big crew, of canvassers on a weeks auto tour of the state to make extensive "sampling" straw vote tests. 'ine canvassers, incidentally, de cided they had to have some sort of name to operate under, so they called , themselves "The Institute of Political Research." They had some tunny-experiences, j In a number of cases, citizens they flagged tor a vote would say, "Oil, yes, I've heard of you people, loa do a pretty scieniuicjjoo of analyzing opinion, dont you?" lwo or three times a canvasser would stop a by-passer with, "May I have a moment of your time ?' and the by-passer would s-mpiy give him a uuue and hurry on. v , - Anyway, these polls convinced the art people tnat they could win if there was a contest, but they didn't want, a contest it they coutd help it because tnere : was an lnsioe-the-party scrap on for state control. no, in the end, they made out filing papers and entrusted them to, a V est Virginia G- O.

It is 'a civic in for any community to" allow these dread diseases to destroy, child life. . Smallpox was the first communicable com-municable disease to be brought under control by immunization. Edward Jenner in rural England in I 1708 proved . smallpox could be prevented by vaccination. Since hia time vaccination against smallpox small-pox has been used on millions of persons of all ages in all parts of the world. Smallpox has been wiped out in- those places where carefully prepared vaccine has been used with approved methods of vaccination and revaccination. Great improvements in t ft e preparation of vaccine have taken place since Jenner'a day. Every scientific precaution is now used to produce a safe, reliable vaccine which must have the approval of the United States Public Health laboratories. Its manufacture and distribution are carefully checked. , . .. In vaccination today it Is not necessary to mutilate the child with multiple scratches or rubbed-off rubbed-off skin. A simple method has been devised which causes very little, if any, pain and leaves a smaU scar. Vaccination may be performed safely at any time, but the best age for the first vaccination vaccina-tion appears to be between 3 and 6 months of age. If there is a good take at that time the protection pro-tection against smallpox wiU last years. To be safe, children should be revaccinated at school entrant, and again In the face TSTpU demic of smn,UTf," " . f jjiphthcria Is being brouRnt under control by immunization. We know the cause of diphtheria, how it is transmitted, how to treat It. and better stUl, how it can be prevented. With all this knowledge knowl-edge we should have very few children dying from diphtheria. In recent years both the number of cases and deaths from this disease dis-ease have been reduced considerably consider-ably where immunization has been carried out systematically on preschool pre-school chUdren. , Newborn babies are largely immune im-mune to diphtheria, but this Immunity Im-munity gradually fades out until at the age of 9 months about one-third one-third of the babies haveno Im munity left. , Vaccination today causes very Little pain.
