tunately stocked dealers, then re-
selling at the higher levels.
Manufacturers explained they
have no control Of over-list prices
or discount arrangements. There
are no so-called "fair trade prices"
in this fast-moving industry, they
said.
For their part, most manufac-
turers say they have placed dis
tributors and dealers on an allo-
cation basis; say they already are
sold out until the end Of the year,
and are now building up a 1850
order backlog. Several said they
have from five to seven times as
many orders as production capac-
ity between now and the end of the
year.
One noted that small radios
and monographs are even scarcer
than TV sets. It's almost tougher
today than after the war in some
respects" he added.
Shortages of parts. cathode
tubes, and seasoned cabinet lum-

jump in public demand to create
the present situation, yet set pro-
duction never was higher.

Rest, Not Drugs, Best Remedy
For Colds, Health Chief Says

some exaggeration Of the effect
of these drugs. he added. -
The claims for the antihisti-
mimic drugs should be restricted
to "relief of symptoms of the COM
mon cold and hay fever" he
stated.
Until recently these drugs have
been restricted to sale on prescrip-
ton by physician. DR.. Seckinger
continued. Persons who wish to
use these drugs must follow the
directions. The drugs may cause
excess drowsiness, he said. and
warned automobile drivers to re-
main at home if they are taking
them.
DR.. Seckinger's rules for treating
"a cold follow: @
I Stay in bed and rest. Confine
yourself to a generally light diet
with ample amounts of fluid. A
mild laxative is recommended. /.
Efforts should be made to prevent
chilling or lowering OF body
temperature. The family physd-
clan should be called whenever

Spunky Leukemio Sufferer, 8,
HOPES to Get Well by Christmas
But Spike Carey
Doesn't Know He Has
A Deadly Disease

Despite hospital care and treat
ment with a promising new drug.
little Lloyd "Spike" Carey's time
is running out fast.
The spunky 9-year- -old is in
Children's Hospital and hopes to
get home in time for Christmas
and a pony his father has prom
ised him as a present.
But there's one thing Spike
doesn't know-he has leukemia
and Christmas may not come for
him.
Spike has always been an active
boy. Last summer he fell off
garage roof while playing and
broke an arm. But he soon re-
covered and was back playing
baseball with neighborhood chill
dren around the Falkland Apart
ments where he lives in Silver
Spring. and with schoolmates at
st. Michael'S Parochial School.
Leukemia-known as cancer of
the blood-is a disease in which
the white blood corpuscles multi
ply and destroy the red ones. It
has long been one of the deadliest
diseases.
When Spike became i'll this fall,
his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd
Carey, couldn't quite figure it out.
And then the pediatrician,
woman doctor, told them what
was wrong.
Mr.. Carey, assistant cashier OF
the, Suburban Bank in Silver
Spring, resigned himself to max
ing Spike as happy as possible in
the hospital. So did the mother

but he co-operateS In every wey

His doctor said a new drug.

the doctor said, "but it won't cure
him. I'm afraid he hasn't got
more than two weeks to live"
The doctor said. however, that
she believes the, eventual cure for
leukemia lies in some drug very
similar to aminoptrin. It cuts

Stay in bed and rest if you
want to shake off a cold, Health
Officer Daniel L. Seckinger ad-
vised yesterday as he took a slap
at. the new antihistiminic drugs
being sold over the counter for
relief from the common cold.
DR.. Seckinger said that rest in
bed had stood the test of time
as most sane and effective meas
ure" for the treatment of colds.
Rest diminishes the severity Of
the cold, limits its spread to
others and reduces the frequency
of complications, he added.
His comments, he said. were
prompted by numerous inquiries
at the Health Department on the
effectiveness of the antihistiminic
drugs.
