there was a history OF high
blood pressure
THIS seems 70 he contradCted
Il by another study which I
have seen IN a medical journal
IN which the family history #
1000 applicants for life inSur-
anee was examined and II was
found that the incidence Of
family blood pressure disease
was only slightly greater among
those who had a high pressure
than among those who had
normal pressure.
This Contradicts the findings
OF the first-report mentioned.
Ny opinion would be. that
life insurance examination was
a poor one 10 analyZe in order
10 determine hereditary influ-
enceS.
I HAVE made a good many life
Il insurance examinations and l
very seldom found any one who
knew very much A b out his
family and especially about the
diseases h a I the father and
mother, brothers and sisters, or
grandparents had during life
Most Of the time they have a
very vague idea about what the
exact disease was and if you
wish 10 get statistical d a
about the hereditary nature Of
high blood pressure YOU should
be very sure that the individuals
know about their family history
My experience has been that
when real information vas
available. there is no question
about the relationship between
h ig h blood pre- sSure and
heredity

Order End Of Fish Dispute

Boston, July 22-(UP)-With New England facing a Friday fish short age, the regions fishermen have been ordered to end their dispute over OPA ceiling prices by tomor- row or have their case referred to the National War Labor Board.
 An interim directive order issued by the New England War Labor Board late yesterday said that if members of the Atlantic Fisher mems Union (AFL) failed to resume normal operation of their trawlers, draggers and small boats by tomor- row the case would be referred to the NLWB in an effort to gain full and immediate compliance"
 Though the disputing fishermen took no official action on the mat ter, they indicated informally at a mass meeting yesterday that they would not comply with the regional boards order demanding resumption of normal operations of the New England fishing industry.
 The dispute was not sanctioned by the union and its secretary-treas- urer, Patrick J. McHugh, with Louis R. Becker of the New England WLB urged the men to end the dispute that threatens to bring general strike in the industry.
 Crux of the protest is that fish ermen contend the recently-estab- lished ceilings on fresh fish are in effect a wage cut for members of the industry.

 Allied headquarters, North Africa, July 22- CUp - American flying Actresses, ranging 90 miles north Of Rome, scored heavily on the airfield at Grosseto Wednesday, following up night bomber raids on Naples, Italy's first port, and the Crotone airfield, on the sole of the Italian boot.
 The big U. s. bombers met only one enemy fighter and little anti aircraft fire, raining their explosives at will on runwayS and alrdrome buildings at GrosSeto.
 British Wellington bombers laid carpets of bombs on Naples rall ana dock facilities, cutting deeply into vital Axis supply routes, and on the Crotone airfield, where seven grounded aircraft were left burning.
 The airdrome raids were designed to destroy as many enemy planes as possible at the least cost to the AL lies. The days toll in air combat was raised to five by RAF middle-east fighters who shot down a Junkers 88.

Three of Orel's railroads were in Russian hands and the fourth run ming westward to Bryansk was un- der fire at short range. That left the German garrison dependent on highways for withdrawal which shaped up as the only alternative to a hopeless Stalingrad stand.

 CAR STRIKE

Los Angeles, July 22. - (UP) Fleets of trucks and taxicabs rolled over street car and bus routes today, picking up thousands of war workers stranded by a work stoppage that paralyzed one of Los Angeles county's two major transportation sys- tems. The possibility of mar tial law was raised in event the transportation employees prolonged scheduled 24-hour strike ln protest against War Labor Board refusal to grant them wage in- creases.
 The walkout of Los Angeles rail- way and Los Angeles motor coach employees paralyzed service for near ly 100000 daily riders and seriously affected transportation to the big Lockheed, North American and Douglas plants in the suburbs.
 Mayor Fletcher BoWron appealed to private motorists to assist in get ting workers to their jobs by follow ing regular transit routes and giving preference to those wearing war plant Identification badges.
 Martial Law Possible

 In halting service, the workers ig- nored an appeal from Acting Secre- tary of War Robert P. Patterson for uninterrupted transportation

 The strike was called despite the promise of War Mobilization Direc- tor James F. Byrnes that he would seek new hearings on the wage de- mands. It was believed the work stoppage would provide the first serious challenge to the Smith-Con- nally anti-strike bill enacted last month.

Text Of Letter From
 Vatican On Bombing

Washington, July 22-(UP)-The text of the Pope's letter on the bombing of Rome, as received here by radio from the Vatican:
 To you who so intimately share our government and pastoral care for this Diocese of Rome, center and head of the Catholic world and of Christian thought and faith, we wish to address our mind in an hour of particular bitterness in which our soul is immersed.
 You know we'll how the sad spec tacle of multiplying havoc and ruin the painful primacy of the present hanging over unarmed and in- nocent populations has moved us from the very beginning of war to attempt every means that notWith- standing the conflict of arms, the sentiments and dictates of humanity should not remain completely over- whelmed and suffocated by passion. Therefore in our message to all faithful we recalled to belligerents, no matter on what side they were fighting, that if they wished to hold high the dignity of their nations and the honor of their arms, they should respect the safety of peace full citizens and the monuments Of faith and civilization.
 Hate, Never Father Of Peace
 Consider--We sought to tell them what severe judgment future gen. erations will pass upon those who destroy what ought to be jealously protected as the riches and pride of all humanity and of the progress Of peoples. Consider that hate has never been the father of peace and that resentment arising from vast and unnecessary destruction causes to arise later less stable and less serene the day of peaceful union which cannot consist in humiliation of the conquered but rests and is consolidated only in brotherly con- cord pacifying the minds of men and moderating the passions ot ran cor.
 As Bishop of this beloved city we have striven with assiduous care-- and your eminence has followed all our efforts our beloved Rome be spared the horrors and harm of bombardments.

Wife Stands
 By De Morigny

Nassau, Bahamas, July 22-(UP) Nancy Oakes de Marigny is "ab- solutely convinced her husband, Count Alfred de Marigny, charged with the murder of her multi-mil- lionaire father, Sir Harry Oakes, is innocent.
 Tt is absolutely fantastic that he could have done it." she said last night as she vowed to carry her hus- bands case to "the highest courts if necessary to prove his innocence.
 Mrs. de Marigny, 19, who has been attending school in Benning- ton, Vt., denied that her husband and her father, whose beaten and burned body was found in his bed July 8, had quarreled when Oakes learned of her marriage in New York in 1922.
