Chicago, Detroit American Fighting Men While all of us should guard against too mucli optimism, it must be agreed even by the most cautious that the Allied advance in Tunisia, besides being the greatest triumph in this war for the forces of freedom, may prove to have been the turning point of the war. Hitler's losses must have been not only in men and materiel, but in the prestige of his vaunted Rommel and in the morale of thoso back home. Italy is quaking, fearing inevitable invasion; the Nazi barbarians, taking a walloping on the eastern front, bombed from the north, now must marshal their forces either in Italy or oh the home frontier. The time has come when name-calling, bombastic speeches, will not do. One of the important phases of the Tunisian campaign was the brilliant performance of the Americans.

The fine British Eighth Army, and the other British forces, had back of them the long Libyan campaign; the British made up an experienced, hard- bitten army. The Americans were new, not only to desert warfare, to hot-country fighting, but new to any kind of war. This was their matriculation into the school of modern warfare. They were facing the vaunted Afrika Rorps, the seasoned veterans of Rorn- mel's army. Their work was magnificent.

From commanding officers, down to the last soldier, the Americans acted wfth intelligence, bravery, spirit. The Germans must have revised their opinion of so-called decadent democracies; they must have been amazed at the daring, the 'skill, the courage, the fighting spirit of the "weaklings." Those boys from America wrote in glorious letters a new chapter in the history that is America. He is not born into militarism; he is not trained' to hate; he is not given a gun as a does not have drilled into his young mind the idea that his race is godlike, that he is a superman, that other races are decadent. He is reared as a normal boy, his youth is natural, in a'free land. But give him a bit of training, and send him against the enemy, and the American becomes the world's best President's Chance Remark That iMiners are Government Employes Causes Confusion One mWM'oithe successful campaign in importance, and yet'might lie overlooked, was the part played by the French.

Winning over the Fighting French was one of the great stratagems of the North African invasion. Not did the people and officials of the 'French protectorate welcome the Americans, after token opposition; but their armies have fought side by side with the Americans and the British. Hitler's covetous eyes had been cast on North Africa; Mussolini long had wanted Tunisia. Hie American invasion, timed with the brilliant British advance through Libya, upset the plans of the Berlin braggart who thinks he is a kind of god. Further, the Tunisian campaign shows where the heart of the French lies.

The Frenchman, away from the heel of the traitorous Laval? and the pitiful Pc- tains, Joves his liberty and his homeland, will fight for them. He is a fine soldier, of unquestioned bravery. The French colonies lay comatose, while Hitler was completing the rape of the republic. But, once opportunity arose, the French soldier fought at the side of those whose goal is to drive the Nazis from the earth. The Frenchman's devotion to freedom is too deep- grained to be "erased by a Hitler or a Laval.

The French, and France, will live again. Paying Taxes The rush of taxpayers to pay off their obligations at the Alton City Hall has been keeping the tax collector's force busy. Usually at. the opening of thi tax-paying period there is a slow drift of property owners to meet their dues and exchange money for tax receipts. There is commonly no such a rush as has been going on the past week since the city treasurer began taking in money at the Alton City Hall.

It might be predicted that there will be a much better percentage of the whole taxes paid this year than in former years. People have money this year who have been tight pinched for cash in the past. they are moved by a desire to get the tax bills paid and off their the rush will slump away as time goes on, but that has not been the indication up to date. The fact that sales of property have taken place nnd that levies have been made for unpaid taxes may have stimulated some property owners to believe that they will find it tough going if they do not meet their tax obliga- By DAVID LAWRENCE WASHINGTON, May Roosevelt, by his chance remark in press conference last week that the coal miners of America now are "government employes" and hence cannot strike against the government, has created considerable confusion in tho mining communities of th.e country and, incidentally, has stirred up an antagonism and indignation whose Intensity has been verified by a survey made by officials here. For if the coal miners are government employes when and where did they enter into any formal understanding or employment "arrangement to that effect? And if they have done so, then why did some coal presumably as government a fine on miners for things that hap- jened before the government took over the mines on May Fuel Administrator Ickes publicly stated the other day that he wasn't the "new employer" with whom a working contract could be arranged but merely "custodian" of seized property.

That was his reply when the miners' leaders tried to negotiate a working contract of even a temporary nature with heir "new employer." Mr. Ickes told them they ivould have to work out an agreement with the operators directly or with the War Labor Board. Under those circumstances was it sensible or'was tactless for certain coal operators to muddy the waters by interjecting the question of fines for the walkouts that occurred in the confused period just jefore the government took over the mines? Couldn't issues like that have been left for subsequent settlement before the War.Labor Board? Over the weekend some wildcat strikes have occurred. Miners' leaders have said these were unau- horlzed and have urged the men to go back to work but the provocation and grievances were there, and certainly is unfair today to those miners as having struck against the government If heir own government allows the operators to Impose penalties now under a contract that came to an end May 1. It is precisely this kind of bungling vhlch brings on strikes and produces a bitterness hat often provokes men to take drastic measures in ittempted redress.

The reason why martyrdom comes to labor chiefs the rank and file grow bitter and distrustful of he leaders and makers of public opinion, Inside and lutsldo of the government, is because the workers In their hearts that sometimes on a major superficiality fails to place the ilame where it belongs. Thus It Is conceded that some of the coal opera- ors have been misusing the subsidy or higher prices granted them by the government, especially to cov- 'the expense of a six-day work week. Not many just enough of their number to keep laid off men earlier in ho work week so as to pay $7 instead of $10.50 for he sixth day when It falls on Saturday. Also some if the commissary departments of the big mines where the miners buy their food and goods have-not playefl fair on prices. Likewise in mining communl- price ceitog hartfe occurred.

Governmental agencies are ncfw to check up on these But until chlselers are exposed and brought to book, faction and trouble will continue, 'strikes in wartime are intolerable and should be explicitly prohibited by law, but this will be valueless unless there's an efficient machinery for prompt and Impartial handling of grievances and for disciplining management as well as workers for producing the circumstances that provoke men to go out on strikes. If each side would play the game fairly, acknowledge errors and seek to correct them conscientiously and accept Impartial umpires to determine the facts of a dispute, strikes would in the main vanish. Another essential Is to give the people all of the truth In these controversies. Mr. Lewis has been accused, for instance, of "granting a fifteen-day truce." The facts are that various government officials who saw only confusion ahead when the miners' contract expired on May 1 urged that Lewis be sent for to arrange a transition period for the purpose of working out a formula.

So Mr. Ickes took the initiative and sent for Lewis on May 2. The latter would have accepted a thirty-day period as readily as fifteen days. No promises or deals were made by Mr. Ickes who merely explained that he wanted time to explore the problem and while he was doing so the miners should resume work immediately in the mines.

Lewis, without equivocation, accepted the proposal. If the President hadn't complicated the issue last week by calling the miners "government employes" and if some of the mine operators hadn't imposed those fines which it can hardly be assumed that the government asked them to Impose at this critical moment, we would be farther ahead today toward solution of the coal controversy.

Soup from Soys The soy bean, undisputed champion of vegetable versatility, has a new use. Hotels, pressed by the meat, shortage, arc now serving soy bean soup and customers report it to be a tasty dish, similar to navy bean soup. The bean already is hard at work in scores of jobs, It substituting for metal in plane production. It it used to make drinking cups, ash trays, glycerine, checte, and for chop suey. Once peace-time production is restored, auto manufacturers plan to use the fccan widely for car bodiw.

S-tO 25 Years In and About Alton "You wanted to move to the country to raise vegetables I've seen your.friends' wives working in.their gardens, and you may as well understand I'm not the gardening type!" WASHIHQTOH MERRY-GO-ROUND ly DREW PIARSON Capital Dinner Parties Going Way of Dinosaur WASHINGTON, May 10 I place like the mysterious Big Red problam of going out to dinner once Washington's outstanding in dustry, is now getting, oh so difficult. Old inhabitants predict that at the present rate of decline, dining out will soon be as rare as dinosaur eggs. Full dress evening clothes are now seen about as frequently as the old coach-and- four in which Washington dowagers once drove to dinner. And even less formal dinner jackets have largely been relegated to the moth balls. This Is really astonishing a town which once fought vitriolic battles over who should sit where, a town in which the Vice President of the Unjted States forma' communiques to? the -effect that his half-sister must go in to dinner ahead ofcthe wife of Speaker Nick Longworth.

Reasons for the change are: at first, gas rationing against driving; second, food rationing; all the flurry over the Big House of street. In other words, you can't tell ed you're going to sit beside a war contract lobbyist these days arid get your name in the headlines later, was rationed for pleasure driving, a certain amount of dining out went on anyway, although most people observed the regulations. Some used public transportation, some walked, Including the Vice President and Mrs. Wallace; and some considered dining out an official business. As a.

matter of fact, some of.it is business, and is so recognized by the State Department. Visiting dignitaries to the U. S. A. have be wined and dined.

American visitors are royally entertained In their countries, and they wouJld not understand it if we did not reciprocate. Recognizing this fact, the State Department has allowed extra point rationing for embassies flnd legations which must entertain, and also for certain hostesses who are. asked to entertain Latin American delegations. Cabinet members also have to do a certain amount of dining out, though most of them are so tired at the end of the day that they avoid it as much as possible. Jesse Jones is to be seen from time at the Brazilian Embassy.

Since Brazil is an ally at war this can be construed as official business, though a vlsitjto the Embassy is not hard medicine to because Jesse loves bridge ahd even gels a kick out of watching conga dancers. Frank Knox also likes to stir about at an occasional dinner party, especially when Senators are present, and he can warnv up his contacts on Capitol Hil. But of late it's no longer a matter of gas and locomotion, it's the fact thai hostesses just aren't willing to spend their ration points on entertaining anyone at dinner. Some of them do manage to invite a few guests when they are lucky enough to find extra chickens or'a batch of fish; or when their guests are people like Senator George of Georgia or North Carolina's Max Gardner, who don't mind helving to cook hominy grits In the kitchen. But except for embassy dinners with extra ration points, or Mrs.

EvaJyn McLean of Hope Diamond fame, who will always carry on, or a few black market dinners where questions aren't asked, old, 1 fashioned dining out in Washington Is almost paste. Added to whlcs, probably will be long time before anyone 01 Importance accepts an Invitation to any dinner he doesn't know all the guests In advance, for feM he may. find himself headlined tftrwards as belnj present at KHttf House on street, alleged rendezvous for war contractors. Calvin Coolldge'g Ear The mystery of who made off with part of the left ear of Calvin Coolidge's marble bust still has Capitol Hlir politicos almost as baffled as they were over his third term intentions. While confessing that he is completely in the dark as to how Coolidge's ear" was mutilated, or by whom, Capitol Architect David Lynn discounts rumors of "Democratic vandalism." He points out that It was a Democrat, Representative James M.

Curley 'of who first brought the, matter 'While journeying" throdgh the Senate side of the Capitol," Curley wrote Lynn, "I noted that some ear-bender had succeeded either in talking or knocking off one half of the; left ear of the bust of the late and lamented former President, Calvin Coolldgei the ear should be restored at once or, In event your department lacks the necessary. funds, it would be wise to proceed In conformity with the Coolidge economy policy and off the corresponding half of the right ear.ABut in any event something. should be done at once, since it Is an injustice to the memory of. a truly great American to have him appear with but one and a half ears."

Calif. Haas knew, the State of Washington had million dollars lying around uninvested and he set out to se(l the state on putting this in war bonds. Simultaneously, a group of investment bankers had some ideas as to where the state should Invest Its nest-egg of $20,000.000. Haas, however, beat them to It. He persuaded state authorities.

that the best possible Investment was in Uncle Sam's bonds not private bonds. Furthermore he found out what the investment bankers did not know, that the state had, not but $33,000,000. He got that amount, all in one check. At the war bond dinner celebrating receipt of the check, Dietrich president of the Washington Mutual Savings Bank, sitting opposite Haas, said: "Saul, any time you want a Job you can have it with me. You're too good a salesman to waste in a government job."

UM3, by Unllwl mtun Syndicate, Inc.) Buy War and SAVE THE TONSILS While tonsil trouble is -apt to make itself manifest at anytime of the year, it is more common in the winter and the first symptoms of a chronic ton- sillitis'may begin to appear in the early fall. It is to be remembered that tonsils are normally larger in the adolescent period and they slowly reduce In size through'the years so that when maturity is reached the healthy tonsil can hardly be seen In the throat. Tonsillitis is of course present at any age, but it Is most noticeable in children, and I have seen many cases of acute tonsillitis in children which gave no symptoms whatever excepting an elevation in temperature. The child may not complain of a sore throat or difficulty In swallowing or any of the usual symptpms which would lead one to suspect that the cause of the sickness was-located in the throat. Enlargement of the adenoids Is usually present with Inflammation of the tonsils and sometimes the Eustachlan tube and middle ear are closed producing partial or complete deafness.

The general health Is considerably impaired and the.re may be delirium, but these conditions are quickly removed as soon as the causes of the diseased tonsils are discovered and appropriately treated. Very often the tonsils are the seat of a very serious infection producing diseases similar to those caused by abcessed teeth, and other foci of infection. Disabled tonsils may be permanently relieved by the use of both local and constitutional treatment, which will remove the toxemia which is really responsible for the enlarged or pussy glands. If, through frequent infection, the functions of the tonsils become so impared that they are a liability rather than an asset then surgical interference should be to, and the glands removed. However, I have seen hundreds of cases which treated locally by use of the ultra-violet ray and systematically by the use of the tfruit juicosfast and a dietary regimen, soon cleared up the infection and enlargement, completely avoiding the discomfort and expense of surgery.

Very often the adenoids will be reduced almost as rapidly as the tonsils with the same treatment, as the causes of both are so closely In acute cases of tonsillitis where there Is much pain and swelling, I have obtained, very rapid results by use of an Ice pack directly to the thrcjat. The regulation Ice cap may be used, or the ice may be chopped fine and placed in a small hot water bottle. This of course only temporary relief and as soon as the patient Is able to swallow he should begin taking an eight ounce glass of fruit juice every tw.o hours, with the exclusion of all other food. This should be continued for five, days and each day a warm water Intestinal irrigation should be administered, During a convalescence a strict dietary regimen should be adhered to with total restriction of the starches and sugars. In those susceptible to tonsillitis care should be taken to see that chilling avoided and any activity which might cause Just as a good dentist will do everything within his power to save a tooth, BO should the physician endeavor by all at disposal to save the tonsils.
