A search to f1nd those who don't
know they have diabetes will be
launched Sunday by the District
Diabetes Association.
It will be search for the dis
ease that lies hidden in some
slowly but steadily wasting away
their energy.
\ Doctors have estimated there
are at least as many undiscov-
cred diabetes as there are known
cases. Known cases total little
over a million.
\ The local association has placed
the success of the drive squarely
up to the individual. the resident
OF the Washington area-the one
who has not been tested for
diabetes. Without any fund
raising involved, a free test will
be made at a central laboratory
Residents have only to take
specimens of their urine to a
drugstore collection center. The
association does the rest.
Hopes to Test $4,000.
Diabetes is a disease that pre-
vents the body from converting
starches and sugars into energy
In its early stages. it produces nc
symptoms that can be taken as
a tipoff to call the doctor.
The association hopes to test
up to $4,000 persons in next weeks
drive. Doctors estimate that 1000
probably will show signs of active
diabetes. Last year, out of 1852
persons in the Washington area
about 1000 persons were found
to have laboratory findings for
the disease.
Although there is no cure fol
diabetes. diabetes are able to live
practically normal lives by con-
troll Of the disease. The contro,
of diabetes is considered one o1
the great triumphs of medical sci
ence in the past generation.
Contrary to popular opinion, in
sulin is not always required as 8
treatment.
Care in Diet Needed.
Doctors of the association
point out that the alienation VI
diabetes is achieved principally by
a careful diet. However. insulin
an internal secretion of the pan
creas. must be used in more severe
cases.
The association, although ii
hopes to test most of the area resi-
dents, points the search at persons
who are overweight or over 40
years old. Diabetes also occurs

Free Tests Next Week to Seek
Victims of Undetected Diabetes

more often in women than in
men, and more in married women
than in single. Relatives of dia-
betics should be sure to be tested.
Although the ratio of diabetes
in children is one case for every
500. the disease is likely to be
more severe in youngsters. Doctors
for the association. however, are
quick to add that, with proper
treatment. the normal life ex-
pectancy of the diabetic child is
about the same Of that Of the
non-diabetic.
Complications Of the disease,
without early treatment, include
diabetic coma, gangrene, harden
ing Of the arteries and failing eye
sight.
Posters to Stress Test.
But the detection of diabetes is
simple and inexpensive. It is
possible for every person in the
community to undergo the simple
tests for surplus Of sugar in the
urine, which may mean diabetes.
During the drive here, which
lasts until November 20, posters
will be placed in drug stores, de-
partment stores, hospitals and
theaters, stressing the need for
the tests. A telephone service will
be maintained at District 3111 for
persons desiring more informa-
ton.
If the tests are found to be posi-
tive. the individual and his doctor
will be notified Of the need for
further examination and treat
ment.
Drug stores, acting under the
sponsorship of the District Phar-
maceutical Association, will serve
as collection centers. The list will
be announced later this week.
DR.. Samuel Benjamin, president
of the Diabetes Association of the
District, is heading the drive.

weakness in order to attain the strength which
follows it."
So too, the Gerer rebbe didn't like the morbid
concern of man with SINS He thought the section
in the prayer book dealing with our sins should
be passed over very quickly "Sin," he said,. "is
mire and turn mire, as you will it is still mire. :"
In the time spent in repenting sins, he said,
"you may do good deed, which would truly be
like presenting God with pearl"
The Hassadim it seems had ideas very close to
those of modern psychologists The only difference
is that they presented these ideas in religious
guise.
The Hassdim were totally opposed to ascetic-
ISM AS Rabbi Louis 1. Newman put it, the HASH
dim believed that sadness is the worst quality in
man." Sadness, they held, twas at the bottom OF
the incurable egotist. He is always thinking some
thing should rightfully come to me, something is
wrongfully lacking in me. Whether in relation to
substance or spirit it is always l."
Asceticism, the Baal Shem Tow held, is a run
ming away from life. The Baal Shem cited the
following parable.
Once weak man saw burglar coming to his
house. Running away, he let out scream which
terrified the burglar, who also fled
Then the burglar came to the mouse OF Strong
man. He remained quiet as the burglar came near
and he was able to seize him, gain control over
him and turn him over to the authorities
The Hassid felt that we must not run away from
the joys of the flesh. They too are God created,
and mirror the image of God.
While not all Jews agreed with the Hassidim,
1 think, it may be said that essentially the Jewish
spirit was opposed to ascetciSm. The Talmud went
SO far as to say that man would have to answer
not only for his SINS but also for the legitimate
pleasures he has denied himself
So if you are a good Hassid, after the Yom
Kippur fast, which will give you the weakness
which precedes the greater strength, be sure to
give the flesh its due.

The Jews of olden times, it appears, were not
so squeamish and set about their holidays. On Yom
Kippur we tend to be very severe and rigid
Among the ancient Jews, it appears however, that
besides fasting, Yom Kippur was the day on which
the girls all appeared in white and danced, while
the young men searching for wives, looked on The
girls sang songs frankly proclaiming their better
points. If they were good looking, they sang of
their prettinesS. they otherwise, their songs
would emphasize the fact that good wife needs
other attributes than regular features.
After all, it is the day of Atonement or Atone
ment. Yom Kippur thus not only reconciled and
made man at one with his or her God, but with his
fellow creatures It was very efficient operation
On one day, the would-be husband could survey
the whole stock of manageable girls. ~
Today, we are less frank and less efficient The
girls and young men still come to the synagogue
arrayed in their best clothes and it is natural that
the thoughts of these young people include the
idea of marriage, but none who go to the syna-
gogue will admit this purpose.
think the ancient idea was better. The term
synagogue is translation OF the Hebrew term,
"beth hakneseth" which means nothing more than
meeting house. We Jews call our places OF wor-
ship simply meeting houses 1nere Is no Ineoaosl-
cal implication in the Jewish term incidentally
the Puritans under the influence OF the Ola Iesta
ment also called their churches meeting houses
We fast on Yom Kippur. There is a good deal OF
fasting in Jewish life. Someone once asked how
the rabbi of Walkowisk could live on so meager a
salary. ssTIe fasts great deal" was the explana-
ton eff he didn't fast much he would starve
to death on his salary"
The Hassidim looked with some suspicion on
fasting and accordingly gave it reinterpretation
