Social security plan debate at turn of the era
The piece critiques Truman era proposals to expand social security benefits, arguing bipartisan opposition in the eighty first Congress blocks excess expansion. It cites Dr. Arthur Altmeyer on actuarial deficits, notes the 1937 and 1943 amendments, and warns that widening coverage would burden general taxpayers and favor lower paid workers. It urges broader and fairer inclusion of exempt groups and cautions against unwarranted rise in benefits and socialized medicine.

Pegler on Connecticut politics and party fronts
Westbrook Pegler, surveying New England, says Connecticut’s Democratic Party is controlled by non Democrats via the ADA and Irish leaders. He accuses the Americans for Democratic Action of owning the party, with Bowles as a figurehead, and argues the Democratic Party serves foreign interests and labor unions rather than core Democrats. He cites Roosevelt, Shalleck, and Sokolsky describing a fractured party landscape and the term Republican losing meaning.

Sinus infections in children and treatment options
Child sinusitis affects youngsters and even bodies with frequent infections. Germ killing drugs like penicillin and sulfonamides lessen severity and prevent chronic cases. Sinuses develop at different ages, with frontal sinuses maturing around age eight or nine, while thyroid issues and allergies can worsen inflammation. Treatment involves germ fighters, muscle injections of penicillin, humid warm rooms, and careful nasal suction to remove secretions, followed by non irritating nasal preparations.
Medical Q&A and reader questions on health tips
A column features doctor remarks on nasal congestion remedies using antihistamines and sulfonamides, cautions about allergies, plus reader queries about moles and leg pain. The doctor suggests mole removal if irritated and urges a medical exam for back or abdominal pain to identify causes.
