i The Allies landed between Marseille and Nice and met with'only a minimum ol' -resistance from the Germans, who, apparently, were given a tactical surprise because they expected landings in other areas of the Mediterranean euast. The 'speed nnct precision with which the invasion was carried out showed that the plans had.been carefully made and that the invaders had sulTicient strength to establish and hold their beachheads. Following the initial successes, hundreds of gliders brought additional air borne fighters into Southern France. The -work of the air forces was magnificently done and powerful naval formations blasted enemy ships in the way of the, invasion armadas.

The Machine Age THE PATIENT who is always so anxious to have tho doctor back up a machine order to make a diagnosis is suffering from a deep seated conviction that the machine is more accurate than tho human heing who is the diagnostician. A'IHI one reason that idea is false is that the machine furnishes some data, some facts, who have to go through the diagnostician's, human be- foi-o they can be interpreted, before they fall into tho right cute- gory to form the proper conclu- sion.

Tho other and perhaps better reason such idoas are erroneous is that no machine on earth is as delicate and as beautifully competent as the diagnostician's human eye. When' a trained diagnostician looks at any care not what it lump under tho skin, a pair of tonsils, an aching joint hi; instinctively begins to make notes. Is it red, ho asks himself, is it long has it there, is it an'inflammation, or a new gHowth, or a degeneration, did it start somewhere clse- And instinctively also he is fitting it into his acquaintance with thu changes in human tissues, described by the science of pathology or diseased processes, until finally ho has it classified. Then he knows more than any machine would ever be able to tell him, what the'na- ture of this abnormal process is, what the cause is. what the outcome is likely to be, whether there is any way to cure or relievo it.

Jfixtt'iision of Vision The basis of those judgements is largely the conditions which his eye has brought to' him. Sometimes, as in the case of disease of. the chest or the'abdomen where it is located so deep tho eye cannot see: it, he-depends on his fingers and his ears. Thfit is why any 'extension of vision is "of such great value in medical work. We have had a good many such extensions in last few 'yours.

Indeed the- great value of the. X-ray is that-it is merely, an 'extension of our eyes into opaque- tissue. It reveals what we might see in bones, lungs, heart and stomach if we could tear aside flesh. But it is no more than just the human eye operating under exceedingly favorable circumstances. Then we have had quite an array of extensions of the eye into the cavities of the body, by moans of electric lighted.

instruments. The ophthalmoscope seo the retina of the oyo was tho first of these. Then came -the otoscope to sec the 'eardrum, and the laryngoscope to see the vocal cords. And then a series'of eyus on sticks that could be thrust into the dark ro- ceses of the body, the systoscope to see the inside of the bladder and the proctoscope to sec the inside of the rectum. insiders are beginning to wonder if th.i gossip' of a rift between President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill, prominent several months ago, might not have some basis in fact after all.

As the weeks speed by. the president and prime minister seem to be-establishing something new in tho way of failure to moot for fnco-to-face discussions, as has'beer, their practice since the outbreak of the war. The two national leaders have not met in conference since the famed three-power meeting at Teheran in Deci-mber, i months ago. This, despite the fact Hint they announced publicly then- intention to confer every three months because of the rapidly- changing war picture. It was recalled that after the Teheran conference, in which Joseph Stalin participated, there was gossip that the Russian leader and Churchill were at odds on the strategy to be pursued in the war against Germany, and that the president resolved the dilliculties in favor of Stalin much to Ctfurchill's chagrin.

The two-Engish-speaking leaders have not met nee that time. Meanwhile, the long strides made the war both in Europe and in the Far East seem to provide am)le Wises.for further stratcly and diplomatic discussions at the high- level.

Strangely, local dealers were "all out" called upon for comment. see all the organs of that region. Surgeons have long had a procedure they called an exploratory mrotomy. This was used in cases which had the attending physicians and surgeons and consisted of opening the abdomen as for an operation to sec exactly what was present.

Your columnist of the moment has been the Cheese Club's president for 30 years, without break in succession.
