Scientist Describes
Wide Effect Of Fear
And Rage on Body
Professor at Harvard
Speaks ot Meeting Of
G. w. u. Medical Group

Such emotions as fear ard rage
have profound effects on the body
largely because the effects on the
sympathetic nervous system release
adrenalin, incredibly powerful secre-
ton Of the adrenal glands. into the
blood stream, DR.. Walter B. Can
non, professor of physiology at Har-
ward University, told the Smith
Reed Russell Society of George
Washington University Medical
School Saturday.
Dr. Cannon has devoted nearly
half a century TO study of the physi-
cal effects of the emotions. The
superficial effects are well-known-
pallor, cold sweat, increased breath
ing and faster heart beat. But the
primary effects, DR.. Cannon said.
are on deeper seated physiological
mechanisms
Effects Described.
The emotions inhibit digestion,
increase the amount of sugar in the
blood, cause expansion of the bron-
chial tubes, quicker Clotting of the
blood. more resistance of muscles to
fatigue and quicker recovery time.
All these effects also can be pro-
ouced by injections of adrenalin.
All Of them, DR.. Cannon said. are
reactions tending to increase the
efficiency of the organism in the
face of an emergency. They are
entirely SubCOnSCiOuS and outside
the control Of the will. He told Of
cases where men have obtained re-
lief from asthma through a sudden
fright which opened the bronchial
tubes and from blood sugar de-
ficienCy through a fit of rage.
Remnant of "Old Brain"
All these reactions are mediated,
he said through A small area of
nerve tissue which lies under the
cerebral corteX of the brain and
which is entirely outside the do
main of consciousness. It is the
remnant of an old brain whose
function was to preserve life by in
stinctual reactions and which as
serts its supremacy in emergencies
over IHe pOI llOIlS ol Jllt DI d4l Gull
cerned with intelligent or willed
action.
Not infrequently. he stressed, the
two brains come into conflict
the intelligence trying to inhiblt
the instlnCtual reactions. The de-
velopment of intelligent control of
behavior. he stressed, is largely
result of education which progresses
throughout life.

TWoFoLD GOAL OF MEDICINE

The public is not sufficiently in
formed as to the continuous, aggressive
efforts Of American medicine to pro-
vide the maximum distribution Of ef-
fective service to all the people, whot-
ever their social or economic station.
In California, Michigan, New York,
New Jersey and Texas, for example, at
tempts are being made to provide stote-
wide service, on prepayment bosis,
under medical association auspices.
The Wisconsin and Minnesota IeeisIo-
lures, at the urging Of the medical fro
ternity, have posed enabling octs max
ing possible the extension Of such q SER
vice. And recently two stote medical
societies-in Ohio and Tennessee
sponsored similar legislation. As an
authority observed, THESE and other
efforts in practically every stote pro-
vide conclusive evidence Of organized
medicines oworeness Of the need, and
its determination to provide for oil q
truly effective SERVICE"
American medicine never strands
still. Stupendous as have been it's
achievements Of the post, it regards
them os q challenge to greater achieve
ments in the future. The STANDARD Of

cotton Of its responsibilities.
American doctors oppose political
tinkeriro in the field Of medicine which
would in all probability make for retro

science The goal Of American medicine
IS twofoId-first, to prevent disease;
second, to cure disease.

Rita Rio.
Early in 1910 the company had
three high-priced speciality num-
bers-Marie Wilson, Toby Wing

did fine, except that there never
was any money left for Rita Rio.
Marie and Toby pointed out that
their salaries were high because
they were Hollywood personali-

She came here March IA, 1910,
and on March ID. 194l, got . part
in "Aloma of the South Seas"
due to the insistence df Dorothy
Lamour. At that time, as Rita
Shaw, the youngster had had two
screen tests. .
After "Aloma", Paramount
gave her a contract, changed her
name again and slated her for

Purchase" It's the part with the

NO TIME TO CHANGE

Modern war hos two distinct
phases. One is militory. The other is
economic. And the deciding weapon in
either case will be the belIieerent pow
ers' natural resources. 1t takes cool to
keep factory furnaces glowing. Il tokes
oil to provide motive power for planes
and ormored equipment and fighting
ships. Il takes metal Of oil kinds in an
incredible quantity to build the weoP-
ons and the machines which produce
the weapons. 1t takes abundant electric
power to keep industries producing on
a wortime basis. And the extent Of q
notions natural resources determines
its position as trading power-ond
so determines to q very large extent
what it's diplomatic influence sholl be.
The United States is sineulorly
blessed by nature with the principal
noturoI resources petroleum,
coal, woter-power. Second, and equally
important, under the Privote enterprise
system we have developed these natural
resources to on extent unrivoled any
where else on earth. The American tro-
dition Of private intiotive hos borne
magnificent fruits for all the people.
And it is this tradition which must be
maintained if this country is to achieve
it's full strength both as on arsenal OF
democracy, and as free notion where
every man may succeed and prosper
and serve to the very limit Of his obiIi-
ties, ambitions and energies.
There ore those who would now use
national defense" as an excuse to have
the government develop our noturoI
resources-who would, in q word, Soc
ioIize them. We have examples to ndi-
cote what would follow if that happen
ed. Russio is rich in natural resources.
Yet the Russion standard Of living, Of
ter more than 20 years Of socialism, re-
mains at rockbotton, and Russian pro-
duction is VIGOROUSLY low, wosteful ond
inefficient. Is this the kind Of political
philosophy the American people wish
to follow?
The industries With turn our natural
resources to productive use will cooper
ate to the limit with government now
and in the future. They will show the
world that q free America, working un-
der free enterprise system, is strong
er than dictatorship, and thot free men
will out-produee slaves. This is no time
to change system which has met and
conquered every menace Of the post
and which today is gathering all Of it's
vast resources to meet the menace Of

Drake Is an actress who lives
alone in a little house on top of
one of the Santa Monica noun

the night club belt but she pre-
fers q different sort of Holly

No road or habitation Is Wis
IDLE from her place. She main
tains q breadline for birds.
Somewhre between her tiny
yard and Stone Canyon Lake,
about 400 feet below, lives a
family. of badgers. Coyotes tune
up under the moon these nights.
Most of her time the past year
has been spent in this seclusion
with her dog, two Siamese cats
and. two rabbits. She does her
own cooking, puts up little jam
carpenters and covers lawn fur
niture, reads and lies in the sun,
goes hiking. Soon she'll give up
this pleasant routine for while
because Paramount has a role for
her in Louisiana Purchase.
