Cure for Druo Hobit

Cure tor Drug Hoblt
An almost instantaneous cure for
narcotics addition has been accom-
plished by a few fiickS of a brain
surgeons knife.
The cure was achieved-somewhat
as a byproduct-in a partially para
lyzed patient operated on for relief of
intense, long-standing pain.
The operation is called prefrontal
lobotomy. The surgeon merely drills
small holes at each side of the skull
and cuts the pathways to the front
part of the brain.
The operation short circuits that
part of the brain which causes some
persons to worry excessively.

LOng-Lived Moderns


People are living longer now than
ever before in world history, DR..
Klumpp said. By 1880 there will be
so million Americans over As and 81
million over IS, creating huge em-
pioyment problem.
We can't plow them under as we
used to ploW under corn, potatoes,
tobacco and little pigs in accord with
what was once Henry Wallace's ad-
vice" he said.
It is unfair to force men to retire
on calendar basis when they reach
a certain age, said Dr. Klumpp. Elimi-
mating workers at an arbitrary age,
he contended, is sin a refined and
delicate way perpetuation of the jun
gle law of the fang and. the claw
where the leaders Of the pack survive
until the younger beasts grow fierce
enough to eliminate them"
He proposed instead an effort to ad-
just the supply of workers to jobs.
One way, he said, is the reduction of
working hours.
Il venture to say that l will live to
see a SO-hour week in industry" he
added.
The Journal of the Institute of Ae-.
tuaries had reported on the case of
Christen Jacobsen Dragenberg, a
Dane who lived to be 146 years old
in the 18th century, said DR.. Klumpp.
Crux Is Compulsory Insurance
The between 700 and 800 health au-
thorities broke up into panel discus
sion groups to consider maternal and
child health, chronic diseases, rural
health, hospital facilities, rehabilita-
ton, mental health, nutrition, santa
tion, and Community planning.
The most controversial issue is
compulsory health insurance, which
President Truman in his opening adj
dress to the assembly still favored,
and which is opposed by the Ameri-
can Medical Association.
DR.. Ernest P. Boas, chairman of the
Physicians Forum, said the best way
more medical service can be brought
to people in the middle and lower
income groups is through national
compulsory insurance in some such
plan as the government has proposed.
DR.. r. L. Sensenich, president-elect
of the ANA, argued that such govern
ment plans always are clumsy and
that the best social system is the one
which gives individuals opportunity
to do for themselves.

Your Life

IF SCIENCE continues to roll

there is every possibility that
many people now living may live
well past 100.
Preventive medicine has opened
the door to longer life spans. Scien-
lists in atomic research are reported

But longer life will bring problems

Claims Negev
At UN Session
Western Ways

Paris (JTA)-Before crowd
ed session of the General Assem-
bIy's Political Committee Tues
day, Israeli Foreign Minister
Moshe Shertok rejected the re-
port of Count Folke Bernadotte
as basis for discussion and
claimed the whole of the Negev,
including the Gulf of Aqaba, for
Israel.
"The Negev is Israel's future, )"
he said. Because the Bernadotte
proposals would amputate this
vital area awarded to Israel by
the General Assembly in its Nov.
20, 1947, resolution, Israel could
not discuss a settlement on the
basis of the Bernadotte report, he
said. He also claimed the new
city of Jerusalem and a corridor
linking it to the body of the Jew
ish state and the whole of Galilee.
He rejected a suggestion that
Arab refugees be returned to Is
rael and urged that Israel be ad-
mitted to United Nations MEM
bership.

Is CAKES For CHRISTMAS PARTIES Il
By MARION CLYDE MecARR0lL

CAKES for Christmas par
~ ties, but naturally, must be
appropriately decorated to fit
the festive Yule.
They can be made to look
gay and Christrnas-y, too, with
amazingly little effort on your
part.
For example, see the fancy
layer cakes and cup cakes in
the pictures. Professional as
they look. they aren't the work
of any high-priced caterer, but
were quickly made and dec
Grated by an average house
wife, who got her delightful
effects with such simple things
as shredded coconut, tinted
green; gum drops cut into
stars and holly leaves; red
cinnamon and other bright
colored candies.
For the chocolate-frosted
cake with the Christmas tree
outlined in white, she used the
following easy frosting recipe;
mAelc-ouIeK CHOCOLATE FROST

ened chocolate in top of double
boiler. Add 1ls c. (15-oz. can)
sweetened condensed milk and

After spreading the choco-
late frosting on the cake, our

by moistening confectioners'
sugar with just enough milk to
spread properly, then outlined
the Christmas tree. When ready
to use at the Christmas party,
she suggests setting candles at
the ends of the branches" as
shown in the pictures.

Childhood HI
May Be Serious
By HERMAN n. BUNDESEN, MD.

REPORTS from many parts of
the country indicate that whooping
cough is again becoming more vide
spread. WhooplnC cough, known to
the doctor as pertussis, is actually
the most serious of the catching"
diseases Of children. If it is not
fatal, it may still be the start of an
active tuberculous infection; it may
be the forerunner Of asthma, or
it may have d damaging effect on
the chiId's nerves and glaudular
system.
Whooping cough tends to occur
in epidemics. 1t IS most severe in
the colder climates, ard is produced
by the germ known as Bordet-Gen-
gou. The disease is spread by drop
lets thrown into the air by coughing
and sneezing, and is most catching
during its early stages, Usually one
attack produces immunity against
any further attacks OF the disease.
Symptoms Appear
The symptoms appear about 10
to IL days after the child has been
exposed to the disorder. The condi-
ton starts with a slight cough,
which gradually becomes worse,
and there may be some sneozing,
nasal discharge, and slight fever,
The attack soon becomes quite Sc
we're and, at the end of the coughing
spell, the child sharply draws in the
breath which causes the whooping
sound.
The complications of whooping
cough are what make the disease
so dangerous, The coughing may be
go severe that bleeding occurs from
the nose and mouth. Now and then
a hemorrhage into the brain has
been noted. The most serious COM
plication, however, is pneumonia,
and the pneumonia, in turn. is most
serious in babies and children un-
der five years of age. Sometimes the
coughing attacks cause the little air
sacs in the lungs to dilate or stretch.
MS is calIeu elnpllysenlu.
Make Attacks Milder
There is a vaccine which will pre-
vent whooping cough or at least
make the attacks much milder.
Many physicians, such as DR.. Louis
Sauer of Illinois, suggest that this
vaccine be given as soon as possible
after the baby is three months old,
and surely by the time the baby is
six months old.
The child with whooping cough
should, of course, be separated from
well children. However, he should
not be kept in closed room, since
fresh air is desirable.

HUrry-Up
Beauty
Routine
BY HELEN FOLLETT

EVERY girl should know how to
look her best at short notice. It's
easy enough to get into the grand
dry goods, arrange the glorious
thatch, lay on the complexion high
lights if one has an hour or more in
which to produce glamorous effects.
But how about the time when the
best feller calls up, says he wants
to take you places and he'll be
around in no time to pick you up?
That happens. Do you get into a
furry? Here's what to do:
If it has been a busy day and
you're tired, have a hot bath and
a cold shower, followed by tonic
friction. Before getting into the tub,
remove makeup with cream, wash
your face, apply cream again. The
oily application, together with a
steamy atmosphere, will refresh
the complexion, impart pleasing
coloring.
In Cold Water
Remove it with tissues. Dip a
wash cloth in cold water, place over
your eyes, lie down and relax for
ten minutes. This simple treatment
will whisk away fatigue shadows,
give the eyes brightness.
Put on a foundation cosmetic
carefully, tapping it in until most
of it disappears. Place rouge high
and blend with powder. A brush is
handy for this.
If you have yen for eye shadows,
use a light color and don't let it
extend beyond the terminals of the
eyebrows. Shadows are wonderfully
intriguing if used sparingly, wash
out if the application is heavy.
Simple and Chic
With hair modes what they are
simple and chic-you'll have little
trouble raking through the silky
threads, putting them in order
every little fuzzer where it belongs
and where it will do the most good
No matter how hurried you are
don't fail to wear a little perfume
There's something about a sweet
scent that makes one feel rich and
elegant. Put a dab behind your ears
and in the curves of your arms. II
you're going to dance, place few
drops on the hem of your frock.
