of course, how long and hazardous is the voy- i i i i i ami. or course, honors to the newspaper its publisher lagr of ships carrying the fighter type of airplane After all, individual names usually have been mentioned, it is the newspaper which has done tire serving as an institution with a passion for better in every respect the conditions under which live. The American Legion has" twice shown it honors, the Junior Cliambtr of Commerce once, and last night the Order of DeMol.iv added a climax to all in the posthumous award to John D. Me Adams, who as a man of vision nnd by indefatigable effort had furnished his leadership in the achievement of some great public projects and improvements to the Area, with unfinished projects still under way when his untimely death occurred a year ago the coming February 1. Nothing would have been more pleasing to Mr.

McAdams than to have had such an expression of admiration tendered him by young men of Alton. Last year, before his death, the subject of making him such an award was discussed, the Telegraph is informed, but decision was made to reserve him for another year, little thinking that there would be a tragic close to Mr, Mc- Adanis' useful life so soon. The surviving partner, Paul H. Cousley, was with his deceased partner in .1 similar ex orcssion of admiration and commendation by the DcMolay chapter, the notation being "because of his untiring efforts in behalf of the community, its institutions, his deep interest in youth, and fidelity to trust exemplified by his achievements in maintaining the high ideals and traditions of a newspaper that has rendered more than century of The union of minds, the complete harmony of ideals for the newspaper and the community in the two business partners had borne a fruit which was being pointed out last night in the free, voluntary act of those who gave the honors. It was truly an event of a lifetime so uncommon as to be almost unknown.

There are few newspapers anywhere wfiich have received in their local communities any like expression of esteem addition to the confidence shown by patronage ever increasing. Words fail to express the newspaper's consciousness of the signal honor intended and given. The surviving partner of the twain, who has not- been off the newspaper payroll for over 55 years, hopes that this expression of gratitude by a -sector of the public, for service rendered by the newspaper owners of the past and present, will serve ai an inspiration not only to successors in the Telegraph management but admonish all young people that no good service unselfishly given, ever escapes attention, even though long failing lo be given recognition. Help for Mat-Arthur Australians look to America for aid against the oncoming Japanese hordes. Perhaps the United States can gel into Australia in time to help there is another front tes can gel then again, perhaps where hard-pressed defenders neet cannot be denied if help is Philippines.

Among many fine Actions of allied troops in this -svar, the heroic defense ol the Philip pines by far outweighs any other sacrilkc tor America. Uncle Sam cannot let those men down it there is any possibility of counter-action across, the brtuJ Pacific. America must ponder seriously the plight in (he far East. Perhaps tor purposes of military strategy, it would be best if American forces were landed in Australia, to work tiom there against the swarming enemy in (he Philippines and Kast islands. Hut Mac Arthur's men nitist he aided iirst if there is any possibility ol doing so.

Australians are worthy ol help and it is to advantage of America that the of tensive be con ducted on a broad scale by and for the United Nations' territories in the I'ai 1 hut it is also ol primary concern that Amcnim lei'i'ilory is occupied and that American soldo.i's need help. If there is a ilioitc and a possibility ot in the the I'nited Si ties must is a feasible course for lout; rnriKC bombers. The other day pan-American airways group of fliers came back by scries of relays from China to New York in week's time, travelling average of only 100 miles on hour. Uombots can got to Burma in much less lime. Some day, when American policy permits concentrations of strength behind tho Chinese, the route by air to Burma over Africa nnd southern Asia will be much travelled.

While many war weapons can go by air, the distance and time necessary for voyages by sea limits American action for the moment. Tho Japanese have figured this out and that's why they arn trying to spread out and occupy as many landing places as possible from which to operate their fighter and bomber planes. It will be an advantage to them that it may take several months of fighting to overcome, but that, in the end it will be overcome, scorns to be assured according to the experts. Anybody with a knowledge of the speed of the average cargo ship can figure out how long it takes lo get to the Netherlands East Indies'and Australia, for Instance, from the Atlnntic seaboard and around the southern lip of Africa at Cape of Good Hope iind through the Indian Ocean. Some estimates range as hit'li as two months depending on the speed of the ships.

But once a flotilla of supply ships arrives after six days or eight weeks then a steady stream of ships will be coming in nearly every day, and from that lime forward the Japanese will not have the advantage they possess today. Unquestionably the whole plan of the United States arrny and the war planes of the United States navy went into action the day after Pearl Harbor. That's about seven weeks ago, In another month supplies ought to he arriving in large quantities. Now the American navy cannot be everywhere at the same time and there would be no sense il going out to find tho scattered Japanese fleet in the Pacific, when there is important convoy duty to he performed in meeting American cargo ships that come from ports of the United States. There wit be time enough to after the Japanese fleet in large scale action when the job of convoying and aerial protection is furl her- advanced.

Nobody except liiKh officers can speak authoritatively about what happened on the fateful days immediately lollowini? I'earl Harbor but the results of those orders will in due lime be reflected in the headlines telling about I he fighting. The important fact to remember is that il takes time to get to th Knr East, time to unload and assemble equipment and time to organize fighting units. The American people must be patient in the interim. The advantage of the sin prise- tactics of the Japanese may last three or four months but beyond that period it will be steadily'diminished. Several things combine to make American experts confident.

First they believe the fighting spirit and morale ol the American forces is unsurpassed. Second, Americans arc skillful pilots anr: masterful handlers of ships. Above all they i resourceful in an, emergency and there will be much opportunity for individual performance, as has already been shown in the feats of heroism offi cially announced lo date. In brief, the army is nn the move. The navy is already in action, anil the- bombers and fighter planes are on their way to destinations and fighting areas Inch must for the present be a secret.

WASHINGTON, Jan.

Adolph Sabath. chairman of the House Rules committee, got an earful of cheering news about plans for succoring war-hit little business during his talk with the President. The President told the Illinoisan that, two measures are in the works: (1) "Spreading out" of war production by mandatory sub-contracts to the thousands of small firms being forced lo the wall because of material shortages and curtailment of civilian goods production. CJ) RFC "distress" loans to enable such firms to finance additional facilities needed for war work. The President told Sabath that going to the rescue of little business will be one of the first jobs tackled by Donald Nelson in his new capacity as war production czar.

Nelson is ideally equipped for this job. the President said, because of his sympathetic attitude toward the problems of little business men growing out of the war emergency. "The litlle fellow has a real friend in Oon Nelson," Roosevelt declared. "That was one of the reasons I appointed him." The President also disclosed that big primary contractors will, be compelled to farm out a larger proportion of Army and Navy orders under plan being perfected by Nelson, lie and Nelson already have had one conference on the small business problem and others are slated in the near future. The President added that he had sent word to Federal Loan boss Jess Jones that immediate steps no taken to "expedite aid" through RFC loans to small eonsutner-in- (iustiy plants now facing close- downs, Jml which an; capable of conversion to war manufacturing So far, however, Jones has not reported back on the matter.

"I'm certainly glad to hear this," Mr. President," said Sabath. "The big fellow can get all the money he wants from Jesse Jones, but the little man has to go through so much reiltape and delays that, before his loan is okayed, he lias lost the contract or is forced to close down his plant." l-'irst Shot The first shut of the war has been fired by one of the soldiers guarding Washington. It happened the other night in the cold, stilly darkness of -1 a. m.

No one was hurl, but the milkman who provoked the shot is still in his boots. The milkman drove up in his truck loaded with dairy products for the Capitol restaurant. Uis- he darted towards a freight elevator on the Senate side, planning to press a button signaling a a workman inside to raise the elevator. Die milkman didn't see a soldier on sentry duly nearby, nor hear him v. ben be shoiili-d, "Hall!" The milkman continued his dash toward the elevatm.

luit a moment later a lille him in his tracks. "1 didn't -ee you," gulped he milkman as the soldier approached with fixi-il bayonet. "Mister, 1 shot in the air that lime as a warning," said the sol- er. "hut 1 would have had to fire the next shut Ml on if on hadn't finny is guarding the i Capitol night, and when we bait, mean halt. We're not.

Today, Dempsey holds the high office of Undersecretary of the In terlor, but his torch is still flaming as brightly as ever for a senatoria toga. In fact, so burning is his am bition that he tried to win by the gravy-train route what he couldn' win at the ballot box. Dempsey's ingenious maneuver! in this undercover endeavor are i story for the book. Politicos are re lating it in awe and admiration. Several months ago Dempsey go a promise from ailing Governor John Miles of New Mexico, that i Senator Carl Hatch, the State's senior senator, was elevated to the federal bench, Dempsey would be appointed to Hatch's seat.

With this card up his sleeve, Dempsey then set out on the ambitious undertaking to make Hatch a judge. The author of the famed "clear politics" law is a conscientious anc able senator. But his health isn't the best and when Dempsey intimated that a judgeship might be had, Hatch indicated he might be interested. With this second hurdle cleared Dempsey launched on a hot search for a judicial vacancy. He soon hii on the trail of a vacancy on the Federal Customs Court in New York.

Dempsey originally came from Now York, but the politico: there proved a lot tougher than those of New Mexico. The New Yorkers made it em phalically clear that they had no intention of relinquishing this prize plum to an outsider. The job local patronage and they intended to hold onto it.

TREATMENT OF IIEMOKKHOIDS In overcoming a rectal disorder such as hemorrhoids, the principal treatment must first of all be constitutional and not local; that is, the first, requirement is to see that constipation is overcome and that the body is freed as quickly as possible from all of the toxic material which has become lodged in the intestines.

I advise that some form of fast be started at once and two or three enemas should be taken each day to cleanse the colon. Many patients get along best while on a fruit juice fast as this doe? not provide any great amount of hulk; in the milder cases, it is all right to use the whole fruit fast and the residue from the fruit will seem helpful in providing a gentle roughage which is non-irritaling. The fast should be continued for at least five days. After a full diet is resumed, of the type I recommend for overcoming constipation, it is then advisable to start using local treatments. Probably the best rectal treatment is the following: Break off small piece of ice in the shape of a cono and insert this carefully holding it securely with a towel.

See that the piece of ice is large enough to require three or four minutes to melt. Apply this two or three times daily if convenient, several more such treatments may be taken each day with increased benefit. The ice trealmenl will help to contract the cn- 'arged veins and will also be of assistance in tonin ip the membrane of the lower part of tlin rectal region. After the ice treatment, it may be a good ilan to insert a small piece of coco-butter which will issist in soothing the inflamed sin-faces. The ice treatment is one which may be used conveniently at home and will provide nn tom- lorary relief.

I recommend it to thuse want to uiou- of some measure which they may try for themselves. When the hemorrhoids protrude, the best me)hod if returning them is to first anoint them well with 'aseline. They may then be manipulated carcfullv ind returned within the intestine. When you find hat you IKIVC difficulty in accomplishing this, try aking a warm bath first, which will produce tlr" U'Cessary relaxation facilitate their return. I.OPII! rirenesx in disconifn! Is best relieved at home by the ipplication of a folded towel which been wriinr; nit of warm water.

The lint rnav also be l.sed to niiike the patient more conifiu table After returning to a diet providlm 1 plentv of vegetables, it m.iv be advisable to continue aking the i-tn'iiifi ddilv until such time as norrnnl liminatiiiii is seemed. The ein-ma will nut onlv serve cleanse tin- lower colon nf 1 waste but will l-io prove After the is taken, it advisable lo insert a glveei im- a'- piece of erieo-hitllfi, lo remain iiver night. As soon as all symptom 1 disappear, I he ice treatment may be discontinued for if the patient will live on a ncin-constiptiting diet and will otherwise tak" good cure himself, then- will be nn n-lurn of urn local trouble.
