It seems to me that the least the citizens of Ida can do, in appreciation of the fine work these; two departments do, is to provide their half of a pension fund which' recognizes the special risks they take. The men, will pay the other half out of their salaries. Other Kansas cities have voted as high as three to one in favor of these funds.

Salute my well- beloved Epaenctus, who is the first fruits of Achaia unto Christ. LETS VOTE YES' PENSION FUNDS The Register hopes and believes that the citizens of lola wLlI vote "Yes" on the firemen's and policemen's pension fund proposals that will be on the city ballot next Tuesday.

The cost will be so small that it is hard to imagine anyone voting against them on that score. Here's just how small it will be: lola citizens now pay a combined levy of 75 mills. The pension funds cannot, under tlie law, exceed one mill apiece. The first levy, the city commissioners have annoimced, will be only a quarter of a mill for each fund. Experience of other cities indicates that half a mill per fund is sufficient to keep them going indefinitely.

So even if it costs half a mill each, a total of one mill, that will add one seventy-fifth to your tax bUl. In other words, if you now pay a tax bill of $75, it will be $75.50 next year if both funds pass; it might be as high as $76 some future year, other levies remaining the same. Fifty cents to a dollar a year is about the maximum it will cost the average Idl laypayer. HEADED FOR SETTLEiMENT II begins to look as if right-to- work will come before the voters of Kansas as a proposed amendment to the Constitution two years from now. A resolution to that effect was passed by the House by the precise two-thirds majority required.

Everyone seems to think it will pass the Senate even more easily. The Governor has no power of veto in such a matter. So the amendment is apparently on its way to the 1958 ballot. It's probably a good thing. I personally, stUl feel that the issue isn't nearly as important as the shouters, both for and against, seem to think it is.

There still is no clear evidence that right-to- work states are better off or worse off or have a particularly different over-all labor situation than union shop states. But for that very reason, I think it would be healthful for Kansas to settle the matter once and for all so that we can forget it and get on to more important things. One thing is sure; a popular vote, such as a constitutional amendment will require, is the only way it can; be settled, because past votes where right-to- work was one issue, but one only, haven't given the slightest hint as to how the people as a whole feel on this subject. Warren Shaw beat Governor Fred Hall in the Republican primaries, and everyone shouted that it was proof that Kansans favored right-to-work, since this was one of the main issues between them. But Shaw, still arguing right- to-work in every speech, then straightway suffered overwhelming defeat at the hands of Governor Docking, who argued Some will ask, 1 suppose, a special pension fund for policemen and firemen, even if the cost is small?" But the answer should require only a moment's reflection.

Both occupations are extremely Policemen get shot. get kUled or injured fighting fires. You read about sXich things every day. They NEED a pension fund more than ordinary workers. And suj'ely they deserve it because liie hazards they willingly fate are "above and beyond the call of duty" in many instances.

They work long hours for modest pay. They have no opportunity to build up private funds sufficient for their old age. Nor do they have any way of providing for their wives and families if death or injury should stop their earnings. It is this possibility of death or in their that is the specific and particular reason for a special pension plan for firemen and policemen, one which provide half pay think? Well, we'll find out when they have a chance to vote on it all by itself, unrelated to partisan or personal politics. And it will, as I say, be a good thing.

Some problems are so insoluble that you just have to live with them, year after year, the best you can. This isn't one of them. Either way that it is settled will be better than to have it continuing to hang fire. U. S.

It was looked upon as a factor having a stabilizing influence on the bank situation.

The victim of nephrosis is more susceptible to infections than a child who is well. Today some of these infections can be managed successfully with antibotics. About half of the patients with nephrosis recover and remain.in good health. The treatment of nephrosis is highly technical and must be justed to the individual patient. During the active phase of disorder, however, the child must be guarded against infections Salt in the diet is usually kept to a minimum, and rest in bed is the usual rule.

Nephrosis is probably a kind of degenerative disease of the kidney. Unlike nephritis or Bright's disease, however, the kidney is not inflamed in phrosis. Most doctors believe there are several kinds of phrosis, in some of which the cause can be discovered.
