He said that the mortality of
executives and other "oVer-bur-
dened brainWorkerS, and the in
cidence Of serious degenerative
diseases among them, appear TO
be considerably higher than they
are among men who work with
their hands.
Nervous breakdowns among
busy executives are common, he
said, because they not only work
too long hours in the office but
most of their time outside is
taken up by mixing business
with pleasure.
The usual executive is a man
who lives intensely and Justify

himself be driven every minute

CHICAGO. Jan. 81 -- (F) -
Slow down, take adequate rest
periods, don't get angry, and
delegate authority to others.
These were among the health
suggestions outlined by DR.. Wal
ter Alvarez Of the Mayo Clinic,
Rochester, MINI, for the over
worked and tired business and
industrial executives who wish
to keep fit.
DR.. Alvarez, addressing sew
eral hundred business leaders
last night, asserted that the
health of the nations executives
must be conserved so they will
be better equipped to meet war
time problems.
Every able executive in in
dustry is a tremendous asset not
only to his company but to the
country as a whole. Every eff
fort should be made to keep him
fit and to prolong his period of
useful life"
He said there was "only a

Peoria Hotel
Eight Injured
in Illinois Fire

PEORIA, H., Jan. 81 - up
- Fire attacked the five-story
Pascal Hotel in the heart of Pc
oria's business district this
morning, injuring at least eight
persons.
The fire ragged out of control
two hours after it was discover
ed and fire officials said it would
be several hours before they
could determine whether any of
the IS guests in the hotel had
been trapped in the l50-room
structure.
Scores of roomers escaped
from the burning building by
leaping into firemen's nets while
others fled on outside fire es-
capes. Eight persons were taken
to st. Francis Hospital, suffering
from burns, effects of smoke
and sprains.
B. G.. Callahan, owner of the
hotel, estimated damage at
$500, 900.
The blaze, believed to have
started on the roof by sparks
from chimney, was discovered
after the hotel lights went out.
Clerk Edward Highbee and De-
tective Harry Carrie said the
fire had gained considerable
Roadway and dense clouds of
smoke filled the hotel.
The hotel guests were warned
of the fire by telephone calls
made by the clerk and Carrie.
They were unable, however, to
estimate how many of the room
ers, if any, were baked in their
efforts to escape.
Firemen fought to control the
conflagration and prevent 1t
spreading to other buildings, in
Guiding the Peoria county court
house and county Jail, all locat-
ed in the courthouse square.
Two hours after the blaze was
discovered the hotel roof caved
in, hampering the work of the
fighters.

Since the Ritz Cafe license

night in the absence of Mayor
Donald r. Westendorf, reminded
fellow commissioners that Mrs.

a vacancy exists.
The commissioners observed
that she should be considered.
