'■“es Well, if yo'ur bodily func-
® 'are performed naturally, you
i not worry. Constipation after
oueration for appendicitis does
necessarily mean that the bowel
bound down by an adhesion. An
adhesion is the growing together o
tructures m the abdomen that

many cases of “adhesion

Bowel-walls and peritoneal sur
faces grow together very quickly
under certain contacts by sutures
or forced pressure. Where a very
marked stricture of the intestinal
canal is produced, it may be nec
essary to re-open the abdomen and
release the band closure.
It is a very serious error to con
clude that a masseur or hand man
ipulator can break loose adhesions
—whether real or imaginary. Rare
ly should surgical abdomen be sub
ject to hand manipulation, and even
then the display of elbow grease
marks the ignoramous who is capa
ble of doing serious injury.
A few minor adhesions cause only
slight pain; it is only those that

ind of Economic Distress
Seen as Roosevelt’s
Objective
(Special to The Press-Maooniian)
WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.—With
the return of the ^ President to
Washington from his triumphant
lourney to South America, the
dicies which will govern his sec-
Dnd Administration are beginning
to take shape. In the absence of
any public statement by the Pres
ident, a great deal oi the talk
"about what he intends to ask Con
gress to do must be accepted as
pure speculation. It has always been
difiicult to read the President’s
ind and probably not until he de-
llivers his annual message to Con-
ress on January S will there be
lany clear-cut definition of his pro
ram.
In general, however, the best in
formed Washington opinion is that
is aim will be to find ways of
increasing the production and dis-
libution of commodities at the
ame time increasing the general
page level and shortening the
ivorking hours in industry, and
ithout permitting too high a pro
portion of corporate incomes to be
[distributed as profits to' capital.
In other words, the Administra
tion’s purpose will likely be to so
;ontrol and regulate business as to
nsure a wider distribution of
[wealth.
That objective which, if reached,
jwould mean practically the abolition
f poverty and economic distress, is
[one with which even the Adminis^-
tration’s vigorous opponents are
[heartily in accord. Such differences
n opinion as may arise will be as
:o whether the methods proposed
■ill accomplish that objective.
The President is believed to have
|come around-to the view that low
|commodity prices don’t necessarily
ean low wages. It is expected that
will not encourage any organiza-
|tion of business which has for its
®pose the maintenance of high
prices and large profits. The aim is,
pher, expected to be the stimula-
[tion of mass production methods

bassy to President Roosevelt dur

Here and Abnoad
There is no question that Presi
dent Roosevelt’s prestige, both poli
tically and in the public mind, has
been greatly increased by his
speeches and his reception in South
America. The way has been clear
ed, it is believed here, for some
thing approaching complete soli
darity of the Western Hemisphere.
Beyond doubt, the nations be
tween the Atlantic and the Pacific
are wholeheartedly for closer inter
national relations among themselves,
looking toward lasting peace and
closer trade and diplomatic rela
tions.
Now that uncensored reports of
what is going on in Spain are be
ginning to come out, it appears that
what started as a civil war has be
gun to take on serious international
aspects. Positive evidence that Rus
sia is supplying tanks and other
munitions of war to the Commun
ist government forces in Spain, and
that Italy and probably also Ger
many have been furnishing both
munitions and men to the Fascist
rebels, has reached the State De-
partm.e,nt. These seem to presage a
conflict which may easily involve
all of Europe.
The situation, is complicated,
moreover, by the British Cabinet
the outcome of which may
decisive effect upon Eng
land’s international relations and
even upon the integrity of the Brit
ish Empire. Washington, therefore,
is watching European affairs more
closely than ever before.
It seems quite probable that one
f the most important problems
resented to the new Congress for
consideration will be tne
of the sailors and longshoremen on
both coasts.
One of the early acts of the new
Congress may be the establishment
of a Maritime Mediation Board
with rather broad authority to take
command of this situation and use
whatever force may be necessary
to prevent interference with sea
going commerce, pending the ad
justment of disputes between work
ers and ship-owners.
There is no peace in sight be
tween the two major factions of
organized labor, the American Fed
eration and the Committee for In
dustrial Organization.
The Department of Labor is al
most in despair at the failure of
its efforts thus far to avert or to

FORD
advances into 1937with the
LOWEST PRICE IN MRS
and new opemtinff economi/
The addition of a new 60-horsepower
engine to the Ford line for 1937 brings
you a new, low price and gives you a
choice of two V-type 8-cylinder en
gines. 85 horsepower for maximum
performance. 60 horsepower for maxi
mum economy.
The 60-horsepower V-8 engine was
originally developed for use in Eng
land and France, where fuel costs are
high. It has been proven there for two
years with brilliant success.
Now, brought to America, it
creates an entirely new standard of
modern motoring economy!
The “60” engine, available in five
body types, i^ built in exactly the same
body size and wheelbase — to the same
advanced design — with the same com
fort and convenience as the “85.” And
it delivers V-8 smoothness at speeds up
to 70 miles an hour.
Two engine sizes—but only one car
and one purpose—to give you more
miles and more satisfaction for
your money in 1937,
