Here is. indeed, something be-
yond my understanding.
You have all read shout the ter
ribie housing shortage all over the
country, and particularly in New
York.
Every hotel is packed to the doors
and turning away would4be guests
by the thousand. II "a impossible
to find an apartment or a furnished
room and home-building is at a
standstill.
Stay away from New York" is
the general cry. and hotel managers
spend good money to advertise that
warning.
But-when II was announced that
the United Nations Organization
had selected New York for its in
term headquarters, It was an
nounced o. the same time that the
city's hotel association had guaran-
teed $50 of the best suites to the
organization for an unlimited time,
and good accommodation in other
hotels would definitely be avail
able for the September meeting,
And when the committee In
search o: a site had picked a huge
territory In a thickly populated
section near New York II was taken
for granted that homes for some
twenty thousand attaches could be
found. that building material and la
Dor would be readily available and
that thousands OF residents would
be thrown out OF their present
homes to go-where?
don't intend to enter into the
controversy OF this matter. But | do
wonder why we people who live
here and pay taxes are being showed
around and told to sleep on park
benches II we don't like II, but
thousands OF foreigners who will
pay neither income taxes nor any
other kind OF taxes are to be given
the city's best hotel accommoda-
tions and homes which either cant
be found at all by US. or. IL we do
succeed in finding them, on which
the prices are sky-high.
Personally ! wish the UNO would
have It's headquarters somewhere

Your Health
Many Disorders
May Come in
Middle Age
By HERMAN BUNDBsEN. NJ. D

By HERMAN BUNDBSEN. NJ.
WHEN persons approach the
middle age period II would appear
that there are several disorders
which may develop, affecting the
bones and joints. DIR. Douglas d.
Dickson and his co-workers OF
Rochester, Minnesota, have made
a study Of = number Of patients
with a condition called Paget's dis
ease Of the bones or osteitis de-
formans.
The disease develops most often
in those past 60 years Of age. Only
one case, among those studied. by
those workers, occurred in n person
less than 80. II would appear that
there was a tendency for the dis
ease to run in families. Sixteen Of
the patients had 81 relatives with
the same disorder.
No Complaint
In one-hfth Of the patients there
was no complaint or disturbance
prior to the time the diagnosis was
made, the disease being discovered
accidentally during the course Of
X-ray examinations.
In Paget's disease, there Is q
thickening Of the bones. II most
often affects the pelvis or hip
bones, but also affects the skull
and shin bones in many instances.
1t has been found that in these pa
tients there is an increase in the
blood Of a substance known as
phosphotase which has to do with
the use Of phosphorus by the body.
Break or Fracture
Break Of the bones, or fracture,
Is a common complication Of this
disease. However, these fractures
seem to heal rapidly. In many cases,
there is also a porosity or thinning
out Of the bone in the skull. Some
times this condition Is the only
X-rsy evidence of the disease in the
skull.
Although q great deal Of study
has been carried out, the exact
cause Of Paget's disease has not
been determined, nor has there
been found any treatment which
will check its progress. Large doses
Of vitamin d have been employed.
with reported benefit in a number
Of instances.
In a number Of patients q condi-
ton known as osteoporosis eircum-
scripta was found in the skull. In
almost all Of these patients there
was evidence Of Paget's disease In
other parts Of the skeleton. For
this reason, DR.. Dickson and his CO.
workers believe that osteoporosis
circumscripta Is an early sign Of
Paget's disease.
II would appear that a great deal
further study Of Paget's disease Ia
needed to determine, If possible,
what produces It so that methods
for its prevention may be devel-
oped. But at least some progress is
being made.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
o. M: Would coffee eause q
person to have gas1
Answer: The use Of coffee would
not cause gas unless perhaps it
were used in excessive amounts.
&c: have been bothered with
q constant Pickering sound about
the heart. II feels as If my heart
is jumping. Would q rundown con-
dition cause thisf
Answer: II is possible that you
have what Is known as palpitation
Of the heart, or a rapid heart beat.
This is due to nervousness In most
instances. The fact that your gen.
eral physical condition is not up TO
par might be a contributing cause.
