315 "A great Black Snowball" "Here is a great black snowball which, unless we check it, will go rolling down the years of peace and reconstruction ...

Venereal Diseases are still on the in- crease. Last year the number of new cases was more than double the pre- war total. War-time conditions lead to excesses of every kind—desire for 'a good time' and too many drinks, for example, weaken self control.
