Gerald Miller, SO, of the $500

ant administrator of the Inter-

ton in charge of the international
Press Service, made the charge in
denying that the consolidation
would disrupt publication of the
magazine Amerika.
The consolidation involves trans
fer to Washington form New York

working on Amerika, which is dis
|tributed in Russia, and numerous
other publications in the overseas
information program.

ton without disruption.

There are two types: long-acting
drugs, such as phenobarbital,
which in an average dose will
knock you out for the full eight
hours; and short-acting drugs, such
as Nembutal, Seconal or Amytal,
which help you to browse until
natural sleep takes over. Doctors
however, have a few words of eau
ton here: The s'o,s-sleeber should
neser attempt to dose himself.
Where drugs are inadvisable,

used. At Kennedy Hospital in

If you are only an occasional in
somniac, you probably won't have
to seek medical treatment. Next
time you're having trouble falling
asleep try the following simple
remedies. Doctors say these are
the ones that are most likely to
work:
/. Lie down and relax on the liv-
ing-room sofa half an hour before
bedtime. Take a warm, leisurely
bath. In other words, rest up 30
you can sleep.
Z. Relax your stomach, too. A
glass of milk, cup of bouillon or
cocoa - or even a bit of sherry -
is suggested before you try to 60
to sleep.
3. Check your sleeping environ
ment. Hang up your clothes. Your
bedroom should be clean, unclut-
tered and serene looking. You need
a moderately firm mattress, a
smoothly made bed, several light
covers rather than a single heavy
one.
4. If nerves or restless thoughts
are keeping you awake, try the old
standbys of reading light fiction,
such as detective or western sto-
ries, or listening to soft music on
the radio.
5. Open the window but not too
wide. If the temperature drops
during the night blast of cold air
may wake you up like dash of
=, ice water.
You sleep better in the country
because it's quiet, not because the
air is pure.

being a fresh-air fiend. One insom-

HANDLE WITH CARE!

Time was when the chief weapon
against flies and Mosquitoes was a
homemade fly swatter. Today
mass destruction Of insect pests has
BECOME an important part of both
urban and rural living. Farm pro-
duction has been enhanced and city
living-free of marauding, singing
pests-has been made more COM
Portable and healthy.
But to all this must be added a
somber note of caution: potent in
secticides call for skillful handling
by men who know how, when and
where these chemicals do the best
job the safest. Indiscriminate han
ding is dangerous.
Organic phosphate insecticides,
such as parathion and tetraethyl
pyrophosphate, used properly AS
they were intended, can be tremen-
dous agents for good. But when
they're absorbed through the skin
or mucous membranes or inhaled
they can be fatal.
For instance. if your rose bushes
aren't doing so well, you may decide
to get some parathion or tetraethyl
pyrophoSphate to knock out" the
aphids. You mix the wettable pow
der or emulsifying solution with wa
ter, and incidentally splash some On
your hands. Sure, it can be washed
off after spraying the roses. but it's
easy to forget. You light
cigarette and transfer the prepara-
ton from fingers to lips. Trouble is
brewing.
Most people don't ordinarily pay
much attention to directions They
will point spray gun any way that
is most convenient. Result: The
aphids will be gone, no doubt about
It, So might the man behind the
