ANDERSON Press Staff Writer New York, Jan. 30~(CP) -- Dr. Read, noted exponent of natural childbirth without pain, ex- plained his theories before a dis- tinguished professional and lay sudience here recently. Speakin with conviction, he had no luke- warm lsteners; by the end of the address they were lined up defin- itely either for or against his ideas. . It was quite clear following the | to lecture in the austere New York Academy of Medicine that stiff op- position in the medical profession confronts the London obstetrician who says he found the intricate ma~ chin of the liner Queen Eliza~ beth that brought him to the Unit- ed States second in complexity to that of female body. It was al- so made plain that the personable, ruddy Englishman has faced that opposition before and is prepared to do so again, " Dr. Read, for 30 years a practis- ing obstetrician in London, a Fellow tion through his writings and teachings on childbirth withogs pain or fear.

These fears stimulate tensions that Spade the orderly progress of the physiologic processes. 3. Women can be cared for and instructed in a way to permit the physiologic processes to progress na- 4. Natural childbirth can be not practicolly painless--Dr. Reid has never said that there is not some pain--but a pleasant experi- ence that is followed immediately after the birth of the baby by an "overwhe! ecstasy" h .bene- ficial physical reactions. 'There was no doubt in the minds of the audience that Dr. Reid 'be- lieved in what he preached. Hit- ting at fictional accounts of the birth of a child, which he cited as only one of the many means by which fear of child-bearing has been implanted in woman, he said scornfully: "No baby is ever born in literature unless it is touch and go with everybody concerned."

Watson, Professor Emeritus of Obstetrics, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, who was chosen by the Academy to reply. 3 Dr, Watson argued that the major. ity of women experience pain in la- bor and that in practice, doctors must use drugs to alleviate it. His reply to Dr. Read was presented ra- tionally and quietly--"I, myself, al- ways use anaesthetics"--and he was the recipient later of congratula- tions from many colleagues for his reply to the London doctor. g | today told the {been disclosed.

He added: "The living performance of his plays still contains enough to fire the enthusiasm and capture the im- agination of any man or woman in the commonwealth, * "Shi ¢ wrote at a time when much of the world was un- charted and there were visions of empire growing before men's eyes; when the world was open and man's imagination could carty him to distant lands and to wealth be- yond the season, It is this imag- ination which Shakespeare has captured so completely."

WEST @ UDMA CREDIT JEWELLERS eo PHONE 389 Arar Housewives Would Haul Coal Melbourne, Australia, Jan. 20.-- (CP)--Annoyed at having to cook over backyard fires, Melbourne housewives were ready to haul coal to gas plants crippled by a six-week strike when the dispute was finally settled. The haulage was Datel by the United Women's Movement because the gasworks which had been able to keep up rationed gas supplies with volunteer labor were in danger of running out of coal Coal haulers sympathetic to the striking gasworkers refused to de liver to the ts. Led by its secretary, Mrs. H. A. Maine, the women's group held a meeting on the steps of Btate Parliament at a time when nego. tiations over the strike were on inside. About 800 women offered to go to work on the docks and load coal into trucks driven by other women for delivery to gasworks. The strike ers countered with plans to have their wives carry out demonstra tions of protest and possibly disrupt work of the volunteers. When that news got around, four trained nurses offered their services to any housewives who became casualties if a battle Qaveloped. ple Autiiouisies pers ig the ousewives to postpone action.

The uproar now rising higher in Hollywood and London over proposed British import prestric- tions on American movies sounds more like the opening guns in a new battle of Britain than the preliminaries to a new trade agreement, Bir. Stafford Cripps, president of the British Board of Trade, has said publicly that unless more British pictures get better presen- tation in the United States higher taxation will be sought against American films in Britain, Sir Stafford also delicately held his nose over the quality of Holly- wood films. In reply to this Samuel Gold- wyn, who had previously put his approval of British films on re- cord, cracked that"if British pro- ducers would stay away from Par- llament and concentrate on mak- ing good pictures, they would be all right." Erie Johnston, presider' of the American Motion Picture Produc- ers' Association and spokesman of the industry, tactfully replied to the threat with the reminder that "Restrictions are picket fences across the paths of expanding world trade. Increased quotas in England would breed quotas in other countries." Which was Mr, Johnston's quiet reminder to Britain that the United States could impose restrictions of its own on the rival product, Out of this welter of accusation and counter-acusation comes Bos- ley Crowther, film editor of The New York Times, who sums the situation up: "For all Mr. Johnston's innuen- does and the indignation of Amer- ican film men--and for all the in- cidental criticism of Hollywood movies made by Sir Stafford--the whole situation is quite simple and no cause for national out- rage; the British economy is not able to buy more ffims from Am- erica than it sells. At least, it is certainly not able tq con inue the present unbalance in film trade, which is heavily in Hollywood's favor, in the light of its desperate struggle for dollar exchangc. "The British need things from this country more vital to them than our films, and they cannot afford to drain their credits on American entertainment. That's it, in brief." Chocolate Bars Top The List of Must Richard G, Lewis, publisher of the Canadian Broadcaster, outlin- ed the other day some do's and don'ts for food parcels being sent to England. He sald that the people in England are not starve ing, although they are hungry for many of the deliéacies that grace Canadian tables. Chocolate bars, the speaker sald, top the list of musts in food parcels, Other items which are most wanted in the English house- holds are sugar, sweetened drinks, fruit of almost any kind, dried or tinned, cheese, powdered milk, soups and rice. Items of clothing, especially warm underclothing with a quan- tity of wool help greatly in keep- ing the people warm, especially with the current fuel shortage, Mr. Lewis sald. : The English people are not hard up for money, and are usu. ally only too willing to pay duty on goods coming in, and coupons are not usually required for cloth. ing and food items in gi't parcels, Mr. Lewis remarked.

For Bronchiectasis By HERMAN N, BUNDESEN, WHEN the M.D hi or. tubss of the lungs become dilated or stret- ched, there is a tendency for in- i fection to occur with the result "that georetions collect inthe air passages. This: éondition, known as bronchiectasis, 18 especially | lkely to atfect older people. According to Df, Arthur M. Ol« sen of the Mayo Clinic, the best treatment for this condition is surgical, For example, if the di« lated bronchi are all in one lobe or section of the lung, an operas tion may be performed and this part of the lung removed. Cannot Stand Operation However, many patients who have bronchiectasis cannot res Give surgical treatment, Blderly patients often do not withstand the lung operation very well. Furs thermore, in mény of them, the breathing is not normal, and oth érs suffer from asthma Which would make operation on thé lung hazardous, Hence, these pa. tients must -be -treated medically, . The medical treatment for bronchiectasis consists, first of all, of measures to improve the patient's general health and nu. trition; second, measures to ald in getting rid of the secretions in the lung; and, third, efforts to overcome infection which is pres- ent. In building up the patient's general health, of course, plenty of good food, rest, sunlight and ultraviolet ray treatments are helpful, These patients do best in a warm, dry climate, The patient with bronchiectasis is wise not to smoke, Various Preparations In helping to get rid of the se. cretions, various preparations may be given which will thin out the thick material. These include iodides and ammonium chloride. The breathing in of steam from a steam kettle may also be helpful. A method known . as. postural drainage may also be employed. This is done by having the patient lie for from 16 to 20 minutes with his head lower than his hips, such as over. the edge of a bed. The breathing in of a solution of penicillin in the form of a spray would appear to be the best method for getting rid of infec- tion, Dr. Olsen has found that such treatment produce; a great reduction in the amount of spu- tum in about half of the cases. He has also tried a mixture of penicillin and streptomycin and has found that this also, gives ex- cellent results, This type of treat ment may also be carried out be. fore operation on the lungs in those cases where it is found prac. tical. These new measures of treate ment are a great boon to the pa- tient with bronchiectasis for whom little relief was possible in earlier days, Restraint Marks .

The Quality Tea "SALADA ORANGE PEKOE 'WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT-- Planning a House Wedding? By . CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Déar Mrs, Beeokman: I am ing a house wedding, on the gide of simplicity and infor- mality, inviting between fifty and sixty guests (our livingroom is of generous size, and we can easily accommodate this many guests). 1. In all the house weddings I have attended, the bride's mother has stood near the door of the liv- ing-room to receive the guests as they arrive. But Mother (bless her heart!) wants so much to be with my sister (my maid of honor) and me until just. before the ceremony to see that all gets started well in the processional. Is it permissable for her to do this; and if so, who then receives the guests? Also, when would Mother take her place at the left of the improvised altar? 2, I have always dreamed of hav- ing beautiful music at my wedding, and I particularly want organ mus sic. DO I remember that once, quite a while ago, you mentioned the pos- sibility of renting a small organ for a wedding? My parents are willing to pay a reasonable sum for this, but couldn't pay an exorbitant sum. 3. At a house wedding must the bride and bridegroom receive alone, or may & receiving-line be forened? If the latter is correct, this is the plan I would like to make, and would appreciate your telling me how the recelving-line should be formed. Frances. 1. Yes, if your mother chooses to stay with you and your attendants instead of receiving the guests at the door of the living-room, this is permissible, and indeed is some- times done. In this case she dele- gates a woman relative (perhaps her sister or an aunt or cousin) or an intimate friend to receive the ests, A few minutes before time or the ceremony, she goes up the aisle, usually unescorted, and takes her place in the front row on the left of the improvised altar, 2. Yes, you can rent an organ, of desk-size for a reasonable fee. Ine Quite, sous Weis at & local piste store, 3.. Although at a house wedding usually the bride and bridegroom turn their places at the altar and recelve the guests alone, some- times there is'a recessional and a recelving-line is formed in another room. There is no reason a receive ing-line cannot be formed in front of the improvised altar, Your father, as host, might be first in the line, or, if he prefers to mingle with the guests, your mother, the hostess, would be first in the line, to greet the guests and introduce them (if necessary) to the bridegroom's pare ents, who are Next in line, Next to the bridegroom's mother is the bridegroom, and at the bridegroom's right, the bride; at the bride's right, the maid of honor, and then the bridesmaids. . It's the Man Who Apologizes Dear Mrs, Beeckman: To settle an argument between my brother and me, will you please tell us: When a boy and girl are dancing together and the girl knows perfectly well that it is her fault (because she is not a very "smooth" dancer) that they bumped into an- other couple, shouldn't she quickly apologize to the other couple? Norah, No, It is the boy who should apologize, whether of not it is his fault. A gentleman is be 80 chivalrous that he assumes this blame. . .even when it is un deserved!

The furniture has more curves than the Swedish pieces which ap- peared before the war and is turned out in richer, slightly darker woods. Much of it is in honey-colored ma= hogany combined with light maple inlays or legs of smoke-grey lacquer. Most of the pieces are of knock- down construction and can be taken apart for moving in about 10 min- utes but in spite of this feature and their increased elegance the furnie ture follows the original Swedish tradition of simplicity, adaptability and body comfort. Laminated woods bent to follow body contours provide a maximum of sitting comfort. An easel table is made to be tilted for reading or set flat to hold a typewriter. A lounge chair is thoughtfully provided with a choice of slipcovers---white sheep- skin for winter and a bold red and white print for change. Most of the fabrics in the cole lection have small, delicate patterns and are done in pure, clear colors-- nothing too insistent is the Swedish theory. A cotton staple fabric called "raindrops" is used for window draperies--sheer white and textured with a small pale blue drop in it, Over-all carpeting in a smaré neutral shade is compressed paper which, during the war, 'Swedish women found to be both durable and washable.
