Briefly, he evi dent! s at come sort of a revival oft! . igue of Nations. ~ r.sfcington Unenthusiastic. But Washington obviously is unen thusiastic. President Roosevelt, early in his first term, was credited with a desire for some kind of round-table simi lar to what Sir Samuel is trying to arrange. Yei, if he had such a plan in mind then, the indications are that he subsequently has abandoned it entirely. It isn’t hard to see why. Hitler has been getting worse and worse since then; Mussolini consid erably worse; Japan a lot worse; Spain’s mussed into the equation. Stalin, if no worse, is as bad as ever. It must be admitted that Germany and Italy didn’t take the warpath quite as early this spring as had beep anticipated, but they continue rabid. What’s the use in trying to argue sense with them? It isn’t as if argument improved matters; it makes matters uglier and uglier, generally. And Uncle Sam invariably is flim flammed in these negotiations. He’s a poor diplomat. I suppose it’s be cause he hasn’t had so much experi ence as the Old World powers. He always comes out holding the bag in any event. Look back to -the early 1920’5. Charles Evans Hughes, then Sec retary of State, framed an arms limitation conference. In- that era Uncle Samuel had the whole world outbuilt navally. He likewise was in a position to keep ahead, easily. Cutting Up the Navy. He agreed to trim down to a 5-5-3 basis—a ratio of 5 for himself, 5 for Britain and 3 for Japan. Fixed as we and they were then, we easily could have made it 10-5-3. Naturally Brit ain and Japan thankfully accepted the 5-5-3 ratio. We actually scrap ped warships that we had under con struction, to stick to the terms of our bargain. B".i those pelicans, by a bunch of technicalities, so outmaneuvered us that, iir a few years, Britain had far outbuilt us, and Japan is about 50-50, with our sea strength and, neverthe less, we couldn’t contend, according to Hoyle that we’d be swindled. It isn’t so irritating as to Japan. We expect the Japanese to out-bar gain us, if they can do it. But it’s ex asperating as to the British. Those boys were too smart for their own subsequent good. Having been thimble-rigged by ’em once, we’re skeptical. Not + hat we like 'the totalitarians more. But we’re “skeery” of some of the democracies.

Nazi spokesmen -in Berlin have branded as “arrant nonsense” foreign reports that Hitler had put Hungary and Roumania next on his list for subjugation on his march to the east. They said however, that Dr. Wohl that was still in Bucharest as head of a German economic mission. Speaking of the condemnations of Germany’s course by United States Acting Secretary of State Welles and British Prime Minister Chamberlain, an official spokesman in Berlin said that “every syllable must be weigh ed” before any official German re ply is made. France Also Calls Envoy Back Home (Continued From Page One) Prime Minister Chamberlain also summoned the cabinet to an unusual Saturday night meeting. FRANCE PROTESTS ACTION AND RECALLS AMBASSADOR Paris, March 18.—(AP)— France today summoned her ambassador to Berlin back to Paris for consultations and dispatched a note to the Nazi government saying she did not rec ognize the German occupation of Czechoslovakia as legitimate. Both moves paralleled actions by Great Britain. The British government yesterday ordered its ambassador home from Berlin and today sent a note similar to France’s. moves came as Premier paladier won a vote of confidence iru the Chamber of Deputies during debate on his demand for secret and alhinst dictatorial powers. ’ ■ T he ambassador to Berlin, Robert Couiondre, was instructed to present the French note to Germany at once. • • answer to the summons to re turn to Paris, it was expected the envoy would arrive here Monday for consultations and a report on the sit uation. Daladier’s vote of confidence Was 334 to 258. The balloting was on a motion that the lower House refused to discuss the decree demands. The premier posed the question of confidence after a violent attack on his policies by Rightist deputies. The deputy charged that the French government knew about Ger man troop concentrations for entry into Czechoslovakia well in advance of the actual entry. Foreign Minister Bonnet admitted he had heard of them as early as last Saturday, but insisted that he took up the matter with Britain at once. TJie chamber finance committee last night approved his decree pow ers law by a vote of 26 to 17. If the chamber adopts it, the Senate was expected to follow suit in an extra ordinary session tomorrow. Causes of Increase in Blood Pressure By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D. INCREASE in blood pressure is considered merely a symptom and not a disease. Sometimes the term “essential high blood pressure” is used to designate cases in which no cause for the high pressure is evi dent, but this is merely a compro mise with our ignorance. Os all the causes which have been mentioned, change in the kidney is the one most reasonable and easy to prove. It is a common thing for Dr. Clendoning will answer questions of general interest only, and then only through his column. the kidney to contract as age ad vances, and the shutting off of the kidney blood vessels alone is enough to raise pressure. The process is long, gradual and painless, and need cause no immediate alarm. Other Factors But there are other factors. Re search has shown that when there is an interference with the kidney circulation, certain chemicals are formed which, being absorbed, cause the blood vessels all over the body to i-.-Cw und thus raise blood pressure. Here we have stated the two pos sible ways in which blood pressure is raised—one mechanical, the other chemical, by some substance circu lating in the body which affects the tension of the circulation. Among such substances are the secretions of the ductless glands. The automatic nervous system has control over the constriction or ex pansion of the size of the blood ves sels and it, in turn, is controlled by the ductless glands. It is a common finding in enlarge ment of the thyroid gland that a rise in blood pressure occurs. Adrenal Glands Even more intimately associated with blood pressure are two others of the ductless glands—the adre nals. The substance which these glands secrete, adrenalin, will im mediately raise blood'pressure when injected into the tody. If we may assume a condition in which an extra amount of adrenalin is con stantly secreted, we have a perfect condition for the production of chronic high blood pressure.

Picketeer Hilarie Bloom is putting the sign on Mr. Brophy. HENDERSON,' (N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1939 More and more frequently of late, removal of the adrenal glands has been performed to relieve high blood pressure and with consider able degrees of success. The relation of other glands to high blood pressure has often been suggested. When all the glands stop functioning, as in the meno pause, there is no question of the effect on blood pressure. Enough of these relationships have been point ed out to make the point that high blood pressure is not a single entity but that a combination of causes may enter into any single case. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS C. C.: “Is pure alcohol beneficial as a facial astringent, especially to close the pores of the face and nose after blackheads have been pressed out?” Answer—Yes, alcohol is consid ered by cosmetic dermatologists as the leading astringent, both active and as a vehicle. It is also antisep tic and evaporates quickly and hence is cooling. Others are alum, vinegar, lemon juice, resoi'cin and sulphur. A good astringent lotion is: Alum — 15 grains; acetic acid—ls minims; glycerin—one and a half drams; alcohol—three drams; water enough to make three ounces. P. W.: “Is it possible for me to make the blood veins on my nose disappear?” Answer—A dermatologist can do this by the use of carbon dioxide snow, although this sometimes leaves a white scar which is notice able. I know of no other method. C.: “What are the symptoms of adenoids? Can they cause one to be thin?” Answer: Adenoids cause mouth breathing, frequent colds and sore throat. There is a general debility of health and, therefore, they could cause one to be thin.
