Thus the election results of Nov.

8 represent not so much siswing toward the right as they do a strategic withdrawal from tlie instinctive attempt to regroup nearer the center, wiiich has historically been the ideological home base from which politicians of both parties have operated. In 1966, what, for want of a more precise teim, we call liberalism seemed a little too strongly hi control of the nation's fcfhiirs, iwais- a ilttle too enthusiastically concocting too many nostrums fcS the nation's manifold ills. Ailf this had come about because of another instinctive reaction, perhaps an over-reaction, two years time to a rigid conservatism that seemed dangerously out of touch with modem realities. Trimming the Democrats to size in the congressional elec- of 1966 no more guarantees a Republican victoiy hi the presidential elections two years hence than did the elections of 3i64; In 1968, as in 1948. Americans will be looking for the Man and the party they deem best able to lead the nation in the direction historical necessity dictates.

America in the 20th century is like a man walkmg into itew and uncertahi out with one foot and then IJje other, now vigorously and now more cautiously, pausing tjccasionally to take his bearings. But because he has a left foot and a right foot does not iRean that one is for advanchig and the other for retreating. Botii needed to carry him forward and to give him balance. This year's elections have simply restored that balance between strides. ay Of Mass Killings Wanes EN LOVE TO KILL EACH OTHER.

Vaccines have recently been developed against two common childhood diseases mumps and German measles.

Both vaccines consist of live viruses of these diseases so modified that they are safe while still conferring immimity. The German measles vaccine, developed by Drs. Meyer and P.D. Parkman at the University of Arkansas, is expecial- ly welcome because exposure of a woman to this virus during the first three months of pregnancy often causes severe damage to her unborn baby. This has been known to occur even though the woman had previously had German measles and was herslef immune to the disease.

If, through the use of the new vaccine, all children are immunized the disease will virtually disappear and with it this threat to the newborn. The new mumps vaccine was developed by Drs. Hilleman and E. Buynak of West Point, Pa. How worthwhile protection against this disease is can be illustrated by the following experience: Several years ago the doctor at a private school sent a letter to the parents of all the pupils suggesting that they allow their children to be exposed to mumps and get it over with while they were young because it is much more serious in adults.

All the ents agreed and within three months 66 of the 148 children who had not already had the disease got it. Unfortunately, six of the children developed complications and many of the others brought the disease to older members of the household who were not immune. One teacher in the school also got it. The use of an effective vaccine is much the better way to" prevent these diseases. can a person tell that a baby is born 2 months too soon? head of a premature is larger in proportion to tiie rest of his body than that of a full-term baby.
