Doctor Saws Ir Several Gaze Or Even Twe Or Three Weeks
A historical medical note discusses pulmonary embolism from clots traveling from the abdomen to the lungs. It outlines symptoms such as coughing up blood and sudden collapse, notes the historical lack of treatment, and hints at new post operative exercise and interventions to reduce risk. The text cites embolism as often fatal but suggests early activity may aid recovery.

Washington columnist Peter Edson reflects on the 1948 election backlash and warns politicians that poll results misled many, noting Truman’s victory came from defeating party extremists and channeled anger at the 80th Congress. He argues that labor backing helped Democrats, though Communist elements were repudiated by AFL CIO leaders, with state patterns varying.
