Medical progress in the last so !
years has extended dramatically the
expectancy of life at birth in the u
nited States and Canada from ap-
proximately 40 years to an average
of almost 70 years today.
Because people are not succumb-
ing to the acute killer. diseases so
common at the turn of the century,
they are living to the "Wearing-out"
ages when degenerative diseases
take their toll
tuberculosis, which was rated as
the Number l killer in 1900 in the
United States occupied 7th place in
1916. On the other hand. diseases
of the heart and cancer. which were
listed in fourth and eighth places
in 1900 occupied first and second
places in recent years.
Thus in the middle of the goth
Century, medicine finds itself the
possessor of marvellous new tools
that over the years have resulted in
markedly reducing the loss of life
from various diseases, which were
formerly difficult to treat effective
ly. Physicians are now confronted
with an averaging population
whose ills fall in the classification
known as "geriatric' medicine.
The significance of the ever-in-
creasing population can be seen in
some of the following data In Rome
in Cicero's time. life expectancy at
birth has produced changes in po-
I pulation ratios at different ages
that will continue to undergo read
iustments. In 1850, only 20 per cent
of the u. S. population was over IS
years old In 1880, those over IS
made up per cent and it is estima-
ted that by 1880, the ratio will be
145 per cent.
This increased life expectancy has
brought with it not only the pro-
blems of medical care of aging indi-
vidualls. but also the social-econo-
mic facets of a sizable group of peo-
pie who are unable physically or fl
nancially, or both. to care for their
needs Consequently, medical sci
ence today is endeavoring to help
solve the problems of aging.
The detectives of geriatric medi-
cine are not only to add more years
to life but also to add more life to
advancing years. The challenges
in this area are clearly to help hui
man beings to age more gracefully,
more happily and to retain their "a
bility to be productive, self-support-
ing, self-respecting and useful men,
bers of society.

Making Sandwiches in Quantity

Making Sandwiches in Quantity
Making sandwiches for picnic
crowd can be as simple or as diff
cult as you choose to make it.
One of the first problems to face
is the approximate quantities OF
supplies necessary to make a large
number of sandwiches Coming out
even with bread and filling is not a
matter of luck, but the result of
careful planning Use the following
list to help you plan your sandwich
supplies.
A pound loaf of bread will provide
Is slices, without end crusts while
a one and one-half pound loaf will
cut "a slices and a two-pound sand
witch loaf with square slices will
cut % slices
One pound of softened butter or
margarine will spread 96 bread sill
ces if one teaspoonful is used per
ollCC. II uliC-llill cup up Hlllh vi
cream is beaten into each pound of
softened butter or margarine, e.
nough spread will be made to cover
124 slices of bread without altering
the flavor.
If you prefer to spread one slice
with butter and the other with ma
yonnaise, one pint of dressing will
spread so bread slices on the basis
of one teapoonful per slice
When purchasing cheese, follow
these suggestions. One pound Anne
rican cheese will cut into is slices
or will average one quart in volume
when grated When using cottage
or cream cheese visualize one pound
as equal to one pint in volume.
For those peanut butter and jam
favorites allow one pound of pea
nut butter and one pint of Jelly or
preserves for 20 sandwiches
For diced or blended sandwich
Filings you wish to concoct, these
measures are useful in planning
Three quarts of sandwich filling

If you like the finishing touch OF
lettuce, figure l6 leaves per medium

use shredded green and red cabbage
and crisp carrot shreds to add in
terest to the sandwich.
The above list gives only appro-
Ximate amounts for your needs. To
make the list more usable, every
time you shop make note of the a.
mount of food purchased and the
numbers of servings obtained so that
future ordering can be more accu-
rate

PRICE SUPPORTS MEAN
ABUNDANT FARM
PRODUCTION

Many consumers have overlooked
the fact that price support, year in
and year out, is an aid to abundance,
Under Secretary of Agriculture Clar-
ence j. Mccormick recently told a
group studying the economics of de-
tense mobilization.
DAT one time" the Under Secre
tary said, farmers feared large
crops-and with good reason. Being
practical economists, they knew that
large crops generally meant low prices
So farmers were understandable re-
luctant to cut their own threats, so
to speak.
price support has done much to
allay farmers fears of big crops.

STEEL SHORTAGE BOOSTS
CHANCE FOR APPROVAL
OF SERWAY

CHICAGO - (CNS) - High price
tags on tractors-and not enough
tractors-may help tip the scales of
Midwest opinion in favor of the st.
Lawrence seaway project.
If the project went through, new sup
plies of iron ore in Labrador would
become available to the steel indust-
ries in Americas heart.
Right now the shortage of steel is
cutting back on production of farm
machinery. That hits hard at Mid
west farmers who are being asked
to produce more feed with less ma
chimes and scarce labor-and who
are paying more for the machines
they do get.
At their recent meeting in Column
bus, delegates to the Ohio Farm Blu
reau Federation put the seaway prof.
ect on their must" list. They urged
Congress to go along with Canada on
plans for the seaway, not only be-
cause it would help ease the steel
shortage, but because it would aid de
Tense and supply much needed low
cost power to northeast states. d. R.
ORB spokesman, said: Gust
about everyone agrees that the sea-
way is needed, except a minority
special interest group which has been
lble to block it."

When the Department (of Agricul-
ture) sets high production goals on
various crops, farmers have the as
surance that even a large crop will
be supported, not at a high price,
not even at parity, but at level a
good bit above bankruptcy price.
This assurance encourages them to
produce in line with the goals"
Mr.. Mccormick pointed out that it
will require teamwork on the part
Of farmers, government, and other
groups to reach 1852 production goals
which call for record production.
Such teamwork paid off in 1851,
he declared, in spite of such oh
stacles as cold wet weather, drought
floods and shortages of labor, ferti-
lizers, and pesticides.
"Yet total farm output this year
is currently estimated at 43 per cent
above the 1859 average and nearly
4 per cent above last year." he said

Santa Claus Goes Modern
Via REA Coop Power

Santa Claus IS electrified now
and by coop.
It's Santa Claus, Ind, and the
coop is the Southern Indiana cleo
trio cooperative. In 1916, Louis j.
Koch, an Evansville, Ind, Industrial
list, conceived the idea of turning the
famous village-which each year gets
a flood of Christmas requests from
youngsters all over the nation-into
a child's vision of where Santa Claus
would live. Electric power for the
240 acres of Santa Claus land is pro-
vided by the coop.

whether or not there was water
enough in dry years to operate it, or
it would rob the upper river
region of irrigation water. Nor is
there any certainty that the canal
would materially affect railroad rates
and be worth the price.
The Corps would allow no power
on the main stem of the
Missouri below Sioux City, although, |
f developed, it would yield around II
billion kilowatt-hours of energy, cas-
ly worth $36,00O,000 per year to
