Your Health
Exercise Found
to Have Value
of Medicine

OIL MtulClllc
By HERMAN BUNDESEN. n. D
EXERCISE is medicine, too.
Since ancient times, exercise has
been a basic part Of the treatment
Of many disorders. After disease
and injury, exercise may be used
to restore strength and vigor.
But since here it plays a curative
role, it must, like medicine, be Of
the right kind and taken in doses
that are not too large.
In other words, it must be "just
what the doctor orders"
Adjust Exercise
In every instance it is impor-
tsnt to adjust the exercise to the
patients physical condition and,
particularly, according to DR..
Ancel Keys Of the University of
Minnesota, 10 the fitness of the
heart and blood vessels.
A number of tests have been
devised to determine whether or
not the patients heart and blood
vessels react normally to exercise.
In one of these tests, the patient
is placed on a table which can be
tilted and it is then determined
how the heartbeat and pulse rate
react to various changes of posi-
tions. Once these facts have been
determined, with this and other
tests the patient can be instructed
precisely in regard TO the kind
and amount Of exercise which he
may take.
For example, in such common
exercises as walking, the rate and
rhythm can be specified in exact
detail. Furthermore, the patient
can be instructed as to whether he
should walk on level ground or
on hills.
Good Plans
1t is also a good plan to find out
the amount of exercise the patient
Is taking and how much effor,
he expends in doing so.
As a general rule, exercises
which produce no fatigue what
soever are Of little value. A brief
period Of so-called "setting-up"
exercises taken each day, accord
ing to DR.. Keys, is not Of much
value except in persons who may
be extremely weakened as . re-
suit Of disease or cid age.
He also thinks that exercises
should be pleasurable because
otherwise the mind becomes ia
tigued before any effects of the
exercise of the body are achieved.
Many times q sick person may
just not have the desire to exer-
else. In such cases so-called pas
sive exercises may be helpful
Types Of Apparatus
For example, there are various
types Of apparatus which move
the arms and legs. While such
exercise is not as good as active
movements, the effects on the
vigor Of the muscles, the circula-
tion and breathing are about
equal TO those obtained from q
leisurely stroll.
Persons who exercise vigorous
ly often may be concerned about

FACTS and FIGURES
BY FULLER WARREN

i This week the University OF
Florida will be discussed. It &C.
cupies a warm place in the in
nermost receSses of my heart.
Twenty-three years ago / caught
a train out of Blountstown bound
for Gainesville and the univer-
sity. ] stopped on the way in
Mariana and borrowed enough
money from Amos Lewis to en-
ter the university and pay a few
months board.
1t was my first trip west of
Tallahassee. Soon after entering
the university, I began to realize
FOR the first time what a wonder
full state Florida was. During the
five years I remained there, /
hitch-hiked to nearly every part
of the state. I came to feel an
affection for Florida that has
grown through the years. I got
to know thousands of young men
whose friendship I still cherish.
If ever achieve anything worth
while. it will be mostly because
I got to go to the university.
If l may be pardoned for this
giving away to sentiment, I will
now tell you how many people
were employed last year by the
University of Florida and how
much they were paid.
The total number of persons
employed was 1904, and they re-
ceived $l,071,356.39 in salaries
and $8,303.80 for travel expense.
Many were part-time employees.
Most of the professors were paid
such low salaries that they must
have had to cultivate a garden
and keep a milk cow in order to
eat enough.

Southern Gal
Gets Out
The Vote
BY ADELAIDE KERR
AP Newsfeotures Writer

A LOT of, politicians who ere
n trying to get out the vote"
this yeor. might leorn q thinq
or two from Mory Price.
She planned vote-getting
campaign in North Carolina,
which added 10000 names to the
books in the sixth congressional
district alone and increased ex-
tensively the registration in 9TH
er districts.
I Miss Price, an attractive, earn
est, dark-haired Southerner with
ten years business experience in
the North, but no experience in
politics, is executive secretary of
the Committee for North Caro-
lima, which is a member of the
Southern Conference for Human
Welfare. The conference, which
has in its ranks some leading
business men, educators, writers,
lawyers and social workers, was
founded with the aim of better
ing conditions in the South -
jobs, economy, education, health
and homes. Part of its aim is to
spur the South's citizens into ac-
ton at the polls.
Many Southerners haven't
bothered 10 vote in the past. so
we put on a four part cam
paien OF get them TO the polls"
Miss Price eplained on a fly
ing visit to New York.
First we worked with other
organizations. We supple d
speakers, material and ideas to
the YWCA, church groups and
women's organizations. The Jun
ior Chamber of Commerce asked
how their members could CO..
operate with us and we helped
them with posters and radio pro-
grams.
Second, we publicized the rs
sues of the campaign not the
personalities. We sent the candi-
dates missionaries and asked
them to state their position on
OPA, minimum wages, atomic
energy and so on. Of course some
of them tried to squirm out of it,
but we just kept right at it til
we got an answer.
In many towns we had open
meetings and invited both DEM
ocrat and Republican candidates
to state their position on issues
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1946-10-03

from the floor and submit to
questions. Then we investigated
the candidates past records,
showing what action they had
taken on important issues and
mailed that record to 5000 civic
leaders. If we could have afford
ed it, we should have mailed
them to every voter.
Next we organized the
housewives who telephoned
everyone listed in the tele-
phone book and reminded
e him 10 vote.
fAnd finally we organized the
college students. They gave radio
programs and skits and went in
to small towns on Saturdays and
put up striking signs saying This
way to the polling place"
Miss Prices present job is very
close to her heart.
There is whopping job to
be done in the South and the
more we look at it, the more it
seems to us that it is important
ito the whole country that we do
it," she said. According to Unit
ed States government figures,
the South has % per cent of the
country's people, 1915 per cent of
its farm land, 40 per cent of it's
forests and q per cent of its
mineral wealth, yet the South's
per capita income in 1913 was
only $685. compared with the ma
tional per capita income of $1,031,
and it now pays only 6.5 per cent
of the nations income taxes. If
the per capita income of the
South could be increased, it
could become a tremendous mar
ket."

II. c. Diehl. of Berkeley, Calf.
director of the foundation, COM
ments in this fashion on the cam
paign for quality:
The leader in that work is the
Western Frozen Fruits Professors
Association, a California freezers'
group. II met recently to discuss
a tentative plan for setting in
dustry standards for grading
frozen peaches, apricots, broccoli,
Brussels sprouts and cauliflower.
The different professors will take
the program back to their plants
for analysis and testing.
"All eight of the (foundation's)
frozen food projects are working
on that directly, and all the re-
frigeration and engineering prof.
ects will affect quality indirectly.
THE industry has had some
rapid expansions. 1t is having one
now. In such times every indus
try gets q lot of newcomers. Some
of them see only the big demand
and a chance TO use new equip
ment for big production. Every
time the industry has done that
in the past it has run into trou-
ble."
The responsibility of the retail
buyer in development of quality
is stressed by others such as John
M. Bess, president of Refrigera-
ton Corporation of America. In
stead of directing "all the fire at
professors and packers, Bess
feels that the corner grocers
should learn to keep perishable
items at proper refrigeration
levels - generally zero Fahren-
heit.
The housewives too, other trade
representatives declared, should
carefully examine packages, make
sure they are clearly labelled,
and reject those which are soft or
broken.
Little Mans Prospects
One opinion of big packers is
given by Edwin E .Huddleson,
vice president of Stokely-V Van
Camp, who predicts that in 10
years the big and long establish
ed professors, such as Gamers,
will have taken over 80 percent
of the frozen food business.
Another facet of opinion was
given to the national packers as
sociation by Edwin T. Gibson,
vice-president of General Foods
Corporation which was the firm
to pioneer the business and which
has set standards for its own
products that the trade generally
accepts as extremely high:
IF shoddy goods provoke the
public into voicing its disappoint-
ment, government agencies will
prick up their ears and then you'll
have restrictive laws-you'I have
new bureaus in local, state or ma
tional governments and needless
interference in your operations.
Either industry policies itself or
1t suffers additional government
supervision"
