JAMBS W. BARTON 1HAVE had the opportunity of examining the boys in three private preparatory schools and in one school where boys were of the underprivileged class. J. found that the great majority of the boys in the private schools had had their tonsils removed, while the majority of the underprivileged boys still had their tonsils. ^ Today, physicians are not advising the removal of tonsils so readily es in previous years. The fact that tonsils are large or show white spots does not now mean removal. "Where tonsils are large, show evidence, of infection and the child has f r e q u e n t s o r e throats, removal is advised; Infected tonsils are a liabili t y a s t h e y c a n cause infection. However, if tonsils are not infected, they are really assets tc^ health as they act as filters and prevent harmful organisms from entering the blood. Thus tonsils have been likened to the strainer on a water tap. If the strainer is clean and free of dirt, it prevents dirt getting into • the drinking water. If the strainer gets clogged with dirt, then some of this dirt can get into the drinking water and cause trouble. Findings on Tonsil Removal. At frequent intervals, Dr. Albert D. Kaiser, Rochester, N. Y., has been publishing in the Journal of the American Medical Association, his. findings as to the effects of removal of tonsils on the health of the child,. As chairman of the Section on Children's Diseases, he presents figures for the last 10 years. He finds thai about 50 per cent of children today have their tonsils removed, which, in his opinion, is too large a per* centage.

With our actual involvement in war hanging on a hairbalance, the hearings before the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee this week into radio and motion picture propaganda draw more than ordinary attention. These spotlighted features have not been sufficient to draw eyes completely away from the new set-up in the defense organization. The veteran Barney Baruch's comment, after months of silence and close study, about the need for a one-man authority carries so much weight that the Supply, Priorities and Allocation Board finds it difficult to convince themselves and the public that all is well from now on in the defense effort. One thing is certain--advocates of "all-out defense" policies are iu the saddle as civilian producers will soon realise. The critics of the administration on the Senate committee investigating radio and movies are expected to make the best of their opportunities in an attempt to show a concerted drive to mobilize public opinion for participation in the war. The presence of Wendell Willkie as, counsel for the movie producers gives an unusual political complexion to the inquiry in view of the Willkie change of heart on international affairs following his defeat at the polls. The public hearings are expected to touch off fireworks for the isolationists. Senator Wheeler, their leader, is chairman of the Sen- U1SI LI IB will be on ing recent ii war subjects. What is propaganda: and what is patriotism depends ttpon your slant of world affairs. With the revenue bill in conference, the conferees are expected to patch up differences in Senate and House versions at an early date. Some Senators have accused their colleagues of levying on convenient tax targets instead of writing a measure which would make all classes of citizens contributors to the cost of running the government and financing the defense program. It has been estimated that each day's delay in enacting the tax law costs the government three millions in loss of revenue.

The National Mediation Board has not lived up to advance notices about its effectiveness. It seems labor unions are now conducting a mild form of boycott against this outfit And employers have little faith in its impartiality. An attempt to diffuse government defense contracts to smaller plants has met with some cheers and mild misgivings. The action was taken in response to heavy Congressional pressure for a dispersion of the defense orders. The President has said that it is intended to alleviate the hardships of war production of smaller industries by giving them a fair share of the orders. Nothing much has been recalcitrants accept terms.

The cynics' comment about objectionable legislation is to the effect that it must be swallowed because the flag is draped around tax and other defense measures. Labor troubles are placing the administration in a "hot spot" again. The vote of the railway unions for a strike represents the failure of arbitration and confronts the government with a problem. The stoppage of traffic on the railroads would, of course, completely paralyze business and living generally. The Railway Labor Act, fortunately, contains a provision requiring an interval of two months from the date of the vote to strike and the actual call to stop work. Unless the Federal agencies can make peace in the meantime the only step left is to commandeer the railroads which would be equivalent to drafting labor and capital. Usually the imminence of commandeering is an effective persuasive force to make BeweTyie 11m usual home-type barometers cannot accuiatelj> pn«ct .weather, scientists assart.

In an attempt to get at the amount of loss of vitamins by pasteurization, the headmaster wrote various health departments and private chemists. From some he obtained figures showing only 5 to 10 per cent loss of vitamins by pasteurization and others as high as 50 per cent. All replies admitted, however* that pasteurization made the milk safe to use, which could not be said of unpasteurized milk. The headmaster, after due consideration and in conference with his dietitian decided that safety was more important than food value, particularly in his school, because any loss in vitamins in the milk was more than made up by the great amount of fresh fruit and vegetables from the farm. What are believed to be reliable figures about loss of vitamins by pasteurization (heating the milk) appeared recently in an editorial in the Journal of the American Medical Association. From experiments in laboratories of high standing, the figures show that from 30 to 25 per cent of vitamin B1 (useful for tired nerves, lack of appetite, and rheumatism) vitamin C (which prevents scurvy) and iodine (which prevents early goiter) was lost by pasteurization. All the other nutritive of food substances of milk are apparently not affected by pasteurization. From the above it can be seen that those who have maintained that, pasteurization destroys some of th# -- vitamins are correct, but the loss, 20 to 25 per cent, is not as important as the safety of the milk. As Dr. Gilman Thompson pointed out some years ago, unclean milk causes more fltakOHi than any other one thttg. • • • QUESTION BOX Q.--Is diverticulosis considered an uncommon ailment?
