has figured as a neutral and since
India already has a prime task as
chairman of the prisoner of war
repatriation commission.
Lodge appeared confident that
India would not get a seat. But
rumblings of discontent spread
among a number of delegations
who feel that India, as a leading
Asian nation and the author of a
proposal which helped bring about
the armistice, should be included.
Health Officer
Offers Tips On
Beating Heat
AUSTIN, Texas—(Spl.) — Beat
by the heat ? Is this torrid weath
er sapping your energy from every
body pore ? Then State Health Of
ficer George W. Cox has news for
you.
“Observing a few simple hot
weather living rules can mean re
lief from this sweltering heat,” the
doctor says. For instance:
Cut down on the amount of food
eaten at any one time. Eat a few
crackers or some fruit between
meals if you get hungry. Many
people feel better in hot weather if
they eat fewer protein foods such
as eggs, fish, and meat. Fruit and
vegetables in season makes fine
“cool comfort” diets.
Water is constantly being lost
through perspiration and has to be
replaced or painful heat cramps
will result. Office workers prob
ably get enough salt thi'ough ordi
nary eating, but laborers may need
2 or 3 extra teaspoonsful each hot
day.
Children who play hard and per
spire freely need a little extra salt.
Salted nuts or crackers is an agree
able way for them to get it. They
won’t object at all.
Don’t wear clothes that hinder
evaporation of perspiration, be
cause that’s the way body temper
atures are kept normal. Wear loose,
light clothing, preferably light in
color.
Suit your exercise to your
strength. Swimming is unques
tionably the best summer sport,
since it cools rather than overheats
the body.
Take a warm bath before bed
time, and get eight hours sleep
regularly. An oscillating electric
fan which keeps the air in motion
without harmful direct drafts will
make sleeping more comfortable
and the next day’s heat less op
pressive.
Sun rays are most intense be
tween 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., so stay
out of their way during those hours
if possible. If not, be sure your
head is covered.
Observing these rules can make
for more summertime comfort, Dr.
Cox points out.
Trose rebelling against the U.S.
stand insisted they would get
enough votes to seat India despite
American opposition. A two-thirds
vote of the 60 members is required.
Lodge is known to feel that the
United States got everything it de
sired in the long talks last week
with its allies in the Korean war,
which at times found them split on
important points.
He was especially pleased about
two resolutions sponsored by 15
of the 16 U.N. members taking
part in the Korean war. Every na
tion which had forces in Korea for
the U. N. except South Africa
joined in sponsoring these resolu
tions.
One resolution recommended
that countries participating in the
conflict could take part in the con
ference and should act independent
ly at the conference. The second
resolution salutes the soldiers of
the Republic of Korea and those as
sisting the republic and paid trib
ute to all those who died in resist
ing aggression.
Lodge had made known his sup
port of a resolution by Australia
and New Zealand, recommending
that the Soviet Union participate
in the conference, “provided the
other side desires it.”
Sears Roebuck
Gives Grant
To Ag Eco
A grant of $250 has been made
to the A&M department of agri
cultural economics and sociology by
the Sears Roebuck Foundation, ac
cording to Dr. Tyrus R. Timm,
head of the department.
The fund will be used toward
paying the traveling expenses of
two students doing major work in
agricultural economics to Corval
lis, Oregon, in August. There the
students will attend meetings of
the junior section of the American
Farm Economics Association and
participate in the debates on agri
cultural problems.
In announcing the grant, C. T.
Johnson, Southwest Public Rela
tions Director for the Sears Roe
buck Foundation stated: “The pur
pose of the Foundation is to ad
vance the interests of agriculture,
particularly by assisting young
people. I can think of no better
means of attaining this objective
than stimulating a study and dis
cussion of questions of public ag
ricultural policy among college stu
dents.”
Andrew C. Hudson of Alpine and
Don D. Thompson of Temple have
been selected to attend the meet
ing. J. Wheeler Barger and John
G. McNeely,. professors of agi’icuL
tural economics, will assist the stu
dents in preparing for the debates,
and Professor McNeely will also
attend the meetings.

Centerville
Pays Tribute
To Doctor
CENTERVILLE, Tex.—OP)—Dr.
E. P. Powell of Centerville is 74
years old, but he never refuses to
answer a call, regardless of where
or when it is, or how bad the
weather is.
To show their appreciation, the
people of Centerville presented the
doctor with a new “pill bag” on
Aug. 11 when the chamber of com
merce held its annual barbecue.
“I’ve had some mighty nice bags
in my life, but this surely is a nice
one, too,” Dr. Powell said. “The
first one I ever had I hung on the
horn of my saddle.
Dr. Powell has been making calls
at Centerville for 46 years. In
the crowd that gathered to pay
tribute to him were grandsons of
the babies he has delivered. In
all, he has delivered more than
double the 1950 census of 961 in
the town of Centerville—more than
2,000.

“I just wanted to help the other
fellow is about as good an explan
ation as to why I wanted to be a
doctor,” he said.
