ADDISON'S DISEASE BEGINS In
DEFECTIVE ADRENALS
Unusual Maady Causing Skin to Bronze Arises From
Lack of Secretion in Glands Near Kidneys

The bronzing Of the skin In this
condition Is the most apparent symp-
tom. It may involve not onlv the
skin but the mucous rnembraras
However, the great weakness of the
person affected is the most serious
symptom. People who have this d.
sease are always tired; the muscles
become quickly exhausted. Indeed.
the patients become 50 weak they are
even too tired to eat. Naturally, dis
turbances Of the intestinal tract are
pronounced because the bowel mus
cles do not act well; patients lose
their appetities and have both con-
stipation and diarrhea. Because they
cannot take food and digest it pro-
perly. they become greatly emaci-
ated.
Another prominent feature IS the
weakness Of the circulation Of the
blood. The blood pressure falls to
less than half Of what It USUALLY is
and people tend to faint or become
unconscious because Of lack Of blood
supply to the brain.
When anybody Is 30 extremely ex-
hausted, Is Is apparently the case In
this disease, there are associated dis
turbances Of vision, and Of all Of the
special senses.
Previous to the last 10 years, cases
Of Addison's disease were Invariably
fatal; indeed, recovery from q fully
developed case was unheard of,
However, the advance Of modern SCI
ence and recognition Of cases In theft
early stages have brought about
change so that modern medicine per-
mits prolongation Of life, even II not

BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor, Journal OF the American
Medical Association
Addison's disease Is q condition az
fecting the adrenal glands, two small
bodies which lie just above the kid
neys. AS a result Of the breaking
down or degeneration Of these glands,
the secretion Of the glandular struc-
lures is not provided to the body.
One Of the most prominent symp-
toms Of, the disease is q gradual
bronzing Of the skin, but there are
cases in which the characteristic
signs and symptoms are not easily
apparent and which represent less
ened function Of the gland rather
than complete loss of action.
The most common cause is tu-
berculous infection Of the glands,
usually secondary to tuberculosis
elsewhere In the body. However.
there are other cases in which cancer
may destroy the TISSUE, and still 9TH
ers in which the glands are not
found grossly affected, yet the func-
tion apparently is absent. There
seem to be cases In which the loss Of
function Of the gland results from
interference with its nerve supply.

II this happens, and It seems prob.
able that the suggestion will grow
rather than diminish. the railroad
unions will be brought face to face
with the problem Of what policy to
adopt. Upon their decision q great
deal may depend.
If the demand of railroad manage
mcnts IS strong enough they may in
sist upon a reduction. II the unions
resist strongly enough we may have
strikes, paralysis Of rail traneporta-
ton and industrial dscord which
heretofore has been lacking in the
current depression, In fact, its ab-
sence has been one of the real plne-
nomena Of the existing situation.
Carried to it's logical conclusion,
the movement may reach into every
industry In the nation, unionized or
non-unionized. The union men, Of
ten called "kings OF the laboring class"
will have to. determine the attitude
they will take.
In doing so they probably will feel
out public opinion rather than risk
strikes and disturbances which, II
disapproved by the public, would only
weaken their organizations or per-
haps wreck them altogether. It is
an ancient truism in labor circles
that strike never has been lost with
public support and none has ever
been won against public disapprovAl.
There are numerous examples to
prove the truth of the axiom and the
adage is a tribute to the ability OF
the American people to make fair de-
cisions when their interests are in
volved.
Both capital and labor may be de-
pended upon to make careful analy-
sis Of the public attitude before TAX

Ing corporations indicates their
leaders have reached a decision. It
soon may be up to the labor leaders to
make theirs.
If each arrives at the same con-
clusion, there will be no argument
and we shall have the phenomena OF
an important industrial dispute be-
ing adjusted anicably.
If labor disagrees with industrial
in this crisis 1t will have
to bear the responsibility II it hasl
the attitude of the Ameri-
can people. It Is a grave and dis
turbing situation and one to be de-.
cided upon facts rather than upon
theories or fancies, no matter how
attractive they may seem.
Next to the stability Of our gov
ernment there Is nothing more I'm

in our industrial organiya-
tion. And the two are so closely

Proved a Good Risk

Farmers who received federal
drought relief loans had repaid, on
September IL, $671 ,673, although none
of the notes given are due until Oc-
tober l.
This and other indications show
that many farmers in the drought
area are coming back and that they
have proved good loan risks. While
agriculture is in a bad way there are
enough symptoms to show by COM
parison that some other businesses
are even worse off,-if that Is any
comfort In such times az these.
The United States Daily. WASH
ington, D. c., publishes this analysis
of the situation:
Included in the payment are
warehouse certificates covering
about 2,100 bales of cotton, 10000
bushels Of wheat, and smaller
amounts Of other grains in stor-
age, given to the Farmers Seed
Loan Office as security for loans
on commodities which the own
ers prefer to hold for future sale.
