Phase II Saga
Counton Confusion
---It’s Intentional
By RAY CROMLEY
WASHINGTON (NEA)
The longer Phase II lasts, the more confusing it may
become. except to lawyers
This is in part intentional.
For Phase II is designed to bend with political pressures
from all sides, then snap back like a willow tree
That is. Phase II is designed to defuse confrontations
like that involving AFL-CIO chief George Meany. It is
structured hopefully to absorb the strains set up by the 15
per cent wage raise agreed in the coal settlement, the 7.2
and 7 6 per cent increases on tin plate products, the 8 per
cent increase on some steel rails and some even heftier
gas price boosts in New York.
This may seem like some pretty weak defusing.
Certainly the word battles will continue as long as
Phase II lasts But the actual day-to-day working battles
are over an endless number of detailed points The stra-
tegy is for the heat to frazzle out in a long series of tech-
nical battles over individual cases
The administration figures it can afford to compromise
its stand in many of these arguments, after suitable delay-
ing actions that are calculated to soften the impact of
greater-than-guide-line wage and price boosts.
Contrast this with what the situation would have been
had Nixon. Secretary Connally or a government board set
down hard-and-fast ceilings for wages and prices, instead
of the vague guidelines which can be argued and nego-
tiated.
The architects of Phase II feared that if the program
were definite and precise it would break in the first strong
push from labor, industry. Congress or protesters.
Phase II’s indefiniteness is a result, too, of the fight that
went into putting it together
First, it was designed by men who did not fully believe
in what they were doing. Second, the basis was and is
p litical, both in the good sense and in the bad.
As a result. no one is satisfied with Phase II as it
stands not even those who wrote the scenario.
To one of these men, it is a compromise which recog-
nizes the bases of power."
To another Phase II has enough “give" so that it can
be jerry-fixed as things go wrong without tearing up the
whole deal and starting again from scratch
Phase II to a considerable extent reflects Nixon’s own
personality He has a predilection for the adversary
approach common to American courts and labor-manage-
ment contract negotiations He shuns absolutes.
The adversary approach makes compromise possible
Hopefully. no one gets hurt too badly, no one wins too
much
It puts the burden "for getting what they want" on the
men representing each segment of society—labor, busi-
ness the public. the government It places the blame on
these men when they do not achieve what their clients
want It can help the President sidestep blame
So count on confusion until the end

HOLLYWOOD (UPI) —Not
too long ago, we suggested in a
column that television can’t
expect sympathy from viewers
when it is under attack if it
keeps it goings-on virtually a
secret from them the remainder
of the time. The point, in short,
was that television badly needs
to do what it hasn’t done: Cover
itself, in depth, on the air,
frankly and openly.
I don’t mean in an academic,
stuffy way either. A dull public
affairs approach may satisfy
gray-flanneled corporate types
who think they are therefore
performing a great service,
especially if they don’t get good
ratings with such a show.
Nothing could be worse than
this approach. Anyone who
can’t see the tremendous show
business potential of a program
—a series —about television is
simply blind. Why settle for
dullsville when so many people
are interested in the home
medium and its affairs, and
when these affairs can be
presented in an exciting way?
There is ratings gold to be
mined in such a series,
properly done — and particular-
ly by the network that gets
there first. At any rate, here
and there one finds a broad-
casting executive who is alive
to these potentials, and such a
one is Mike Shapiro, general
manager of station WFAA-TV
in Dallas. For a decade now, he
has been doing a weekly prime
time show called "Let Me Speak
to the Manager." and he says:
"For more years than I care
to remember, I have been
trying to sell other stations, our
trade association and, yes, even
the networks on doing some-
thing similar ... the television
audience has become increas-
ingly interested in what goes on
behind the scenes. Everyone
has a question or a grip about
TV; and the audience likes —in
fact, is beginning to demand —
some two-way communication
with the people who make the
decisions about what they —the
viewers —watch."
Shapiro’s series has been
remarkably successful. The
station says the show gets a
quarter of a million viewers, a
No. 1 rating in its time period
and a 36 per cent share of
audience. Shapiro has become a
star in his own right, and
sponsors are anxious to get in
on the action.
Now, with his proven local
success, the Dallas general
manager is finishing up a new
syndicated version of his series
which will give other stations
the chance to do precisely what
they — and the networks —have
failed to do? Cover themselves,
make friends with viewers, and

To Your Good
Health
By George C. Thosteson, M.D.
Dear Dr. Thosteson: While on
a trip my left knee swelled up
and got hot and we stopped at a
hospital for treatment. The doc-
tor told me I had "cellulitis."
Since I never heard of it be-
fore, I wondered if you could tell
me something about it. Perhaps
how I got it and its effects, and
treatment and results. — J. K
M.
You were wise to get im-
mediate treatment, because
cellulitis, unless promptly con-
trolled, can develop into a ser-
ious condition. Not that it al-
ways does, of course, but it can.
Cellulitis means, to the doc-
tor, a very specific type of in-
fection, although not neces-
sarily from any particular
germ. Probably in a good num-
ber of cases the patient may
merely be told that it is an in-
fection, without mention of the
term cellulitis.
Most, although not all, cases
develop on the surface of the
body. The infecting germ
spreads rapidly, inflaming the
skin and underlying tissues.
The area is hot, red and pain-
ful. The patient often has chills,
fever and aching. Lymph nodes
in the area are likely to be swol-
len and tender.
The point is that the germs,
wherever they may have
originated, spread quickly
through the area. Had the same
germs been there, but sur-
rounded and “fenced in" by the
body’s defenses, then you might
have had a boil, or a small local
infection. It’s the rapid spread
through cellular tissue that
makes it "cellulitis."
The germ usually involved is
either streptococcus or
staphylococcus (although other
germs can be culprits, too), and
the germs ordinarily gain en-
trance through a break in the
skin or mucous membrane.
Treatment involves rest, hot
wet dressings and antibiotics,
and the sooner the better. If the
infection, once having picked up
speed, gets out of control, se-
vere ulcers, septicemia ("blood
poisoning") or other complica-
tions can develop, depending on
the part of the body that is in-
volved.
Exactly how your trouble
started is not easy to say. The
germs may have entered
through a scratch or wound so
trivial that you paid no attention
to it at the time. But when the
wrong germs manage to get in,
and start multiplying, they can
cause a lot of trouble. Such as
cellulitis.
Dear Dr. Thosteson: A friend
went to dinner where they
served roast beef cooked with
rock salt. Would this have any
effect on a person’s system? —
C. T.
This is a popular way of pre-
paring roast beef in some sec-
tions. Only harm would arise if
a person is on a low-sodium
(low-salt) diet.
Dear Dr. Thosteson: A recent
blood test showed an excess of
uric acid. The doctor put me on
medication and said this would
