Do you men ever relax or do
you push yourselves numerically
and either work on week ends or
work at play? The things which
are done in the name of relaxation
are amazing; late hours in a stuffy
nightclub; long motor trips on
which you drive more than you
rest; poker or bridge or day-long
golf.
How often do you lie in the sun
or how often do you spend hours
in the great out doors. in the
woods or by the sea. when every
nerve end uncoils and you are the
recipient of the healing power of
nature?
Men should create more such
opportunities for themselves. Some
of them get this through hunting
or fishing but often even this turns
into a dissipation for when the
individual is up late at night and
then up early in the morning it
is not restful. If you are going to
get up with the sun why not go
to bed at the same time it does?

TB and Middle Aqe

tuberculosis. no longer q dis
ease of youth as it was for many
years, now finds its victims more
and more among men and women
of middle-age life. Alton l..
Blakeslee declares in 'TB-the
Killer Cornered." recently pub
lished by the Public Affairs Com
mittee, % East Thirty eighth
street, New York City.
The belief that a person in his
30s or 40s Is safe from the ravages
of TB Mr.. Blakeslee declares to
be one of the many myths about
the disease that are without scien-
tif1c basis. TB is most serious in
older men, from the age of 40 on.
Other myths include such ideas
as that a change of climate Is
the best treatment for TB. and
that tuberculosis may be inherited
or caught from a person who has
recovered from the disease. An
other fiction is that any one who

has had the disease Is not good
for much work and makes a bad
risk as an employe. the author
adds. Recent studies are quoted
as declaring that "as matter OF
fact, the former TB patients had
a better record of staying on their
jobs than other workers
Although TB still kills more
people in the prime of life than
any other disease. Mr.. Blakeslee
points to the beating back of the
disease in the last so years as
'one of the great medical and
social achievements, even miracles,
of our century" Since 1900 it
has been cheated of some 5.000,-
900 American lives. That is the
number that would have died if
the 1900 death rate had not been
cut back 50 dramatically.

Relaxation Must for Men

ings, times which take you away
from the tensions of everyday life,
can revitalize person. Sometimes
the most restful vacation a person
can have consists of a few days in
bed. I have known many people
who accomplish treme en- d o u S
amounts of work and used great
amounts of energy who went to
bed periodically and relaxed COM
pletely.
We all live at too fast a clip and
we can do some of this and find
it fun. but the general pattern of
life should be different. We have
all heard this sort of thing many
times but somehow we do not take
it seriously enough TO put it into
our habit of life.
Life passes so swiftly that we
should learn to enjoy it while it
whizzes by and also make every
effort to make it last as long as
possible. Some day when it catches
up with you. you may wonder
why you did not pay the price for
fine health and true peaceful en-

Mccarthy Ready To Name Witness

WASHINGTON. (PJ - Senator Mccarthy R.-WisJ said today he is ready to give Senate investigat- ors the name of a mystery witness who will swear that Owen Latti- more is or was a communist.
 Mccarthy made the announce ment to reporters returning to the Capitol from New York. He had said he expected to get in touch with his prospective witnesses over the weekend.
 Lattimore, Johns Hopkins pro lessor who specializes on Far Eastern affairs, has denied that he is or ever was a communist. He called Mccarthy a contemptible liar for making the charge.
 McCarthy's charges are being investigated by a Senate foreign relations subcommittee.
 "I am giving the committee the name of the witness I wish to have called first" Mccarthy said.
 Mccarthy added that he ex- poets to produce other witnesses who he said would back up the accusations against Lattimore.
 The committee has made tenta- time plans to hear on Thursday whatever witnesses Mccarthy can produce.

 He promptly issued a new state charter to the State CIO Political Action Committee, to make it the official central CIO organization i nthe state. It assumed the name

 Brophy said the testimony of witnesses indicated a loss of con- Gdcncc in the Industrial Union Council and evidence showed it did not represent a majority of the states CIO members. On those points, he upheld the charges filed with national head quarters by Roy ". Atkinson, re- gionaI CIO director.
 Brophy said several witnesses said a major reason for the loss of confidence in the council was the feeling that some of it's actions paralleled too closely those of the communist party.
