Stresses Diet Considered
Causes Of Heart Diseases
m NEW RESEARCH

Medical research into coronary
artery disease - the major cause
of heart attacks - already has de-
veloped significant knowledge in
the fields of diagnosis and treat
ment, but underlying causes of the
disorder remain among the fore
most enigmaS of modern medicine.
This was reported today by DR..
E. Cowles AndruS, President of
the AHA, in response to numerous
inquiries regarding the advances
made through research in this
area.
Coronary artery disease is a
primary target of heart research,
DR.. Andrus stated. He said that
many hundreds of medical Scien-
fists are now pursuing interesting
and exciting new clues, with the
ultimate goals being control, pre-
vention and possibly cure.
Explained DR.. AndruS:
"We know what happens when
an individual has a heart attack:
The walls of the heart consist very
largely of a special kind of mus
Gle, which receives its entire sup
ply of blood through two coronary
arteries. When one of these arter-
les - OF a branch of one of them
- becomes obStructed, a portion of
the heart muscle is deprived of its
all-important nouriShment.
"The severity of the attack de-
pendS largely on where the OBJ
struction occurs. AS a rule if only
a tiny branch is blocked. the at
tack may not be severe: if the
main trunk is affected, the attack
will be severe and may be fatal.
"We also know that heart at
tack occurs when a blood clot
forms in a diseased artery of the
heart. The disease is atheroSclero-
sis. 1t thickens the walls and mar
rows the channel of the artery
until the blood flows with diff
ficulty. Blood clots readily when
the circulation is slowed, setting
the stage for heart attack"
During the past decade, said DR..
an important new con-
cept has gained wide acceptance:
Formerly. atheroscleroSiS was re-
garded as normal process OF
wear, tear, and aging; today, it is
seen as a disease which can un-
questionably be explained and pre-
vented if sufficient research can
be developed and continued on the
problem.
The Association supports ma
ton wide research program in
concert with many universities,
hospitals and other institutions.
DR.. Andrus pointed out that the
search now is moving in many di-
rections, and has two broad OBJ
jectives:
a. To gain knowledge which
will enable medical science to pre-
vent coronary artery disease, and
thus the process which leads to
heart attack.
-. To gain knowledge W h i C h
will permit restoration of diseased
to normal functioning.
In furtherance of these objec-
tives. said DR.. Ardrus, research
are pursuing many lines
of inquiry and have developed a
number of leads which seem to
hold great promise.
DR.. Andrus continued:
"Cholestrol. a variety of fat,
seems of major Importance in the
of this disease. The
walls of diseased arter-
les are loaded with deposits of
this substance. Biochemists are
trying to find the abnormal chem
ical processes which permit this
condition to develop. Their re-
search leads into the field of hor-
mones, which control the various
chemical reactions of the body,
and on into the field of diet.
"The diet itself may be of great

The Law When
You Lend Car
By ROBERT E. LEE
For the N. C. Bar ASSOciatiOn)

(FOr the N. C. Bar ASSOciatiOn)
Joe lends his automobile to Sam
for use during Sans vacation.
Sam wrecks the car Without con-
tacting Joe or getting authority
from him to do so, Sam has the
car towed to Toms garage and
tells Tom to "fiX it up" There is a
repair bill of six hundred dollars on
the car, which, considering the
wrecked condition of the car is
reasonable in amount. Sam doeSn' t
have the money with which to pay
Toms Can Joe get the car from
Tom without paying to him the
six hundred dollars?
No. In North Carolina there is
statute which gives to any me-
chanic or artisan poSSeSSory lien
upon any article of personal prop
erty which has been altered or
repaired at the request of the
"owner or legal posseSSor." Sam
was the legal poSSeSSor at the time
the repairs were authorized. Tom
may continue to keep the automo-
bile until he has been paid a just
and reasonable charge for work
done and material furnished.
There is no such statute in most
of the other states; and in these
Jurisdictions only the owner of
personal property may authorize
repairs which will become a lien
upon the property.
Casper Taylor buys an automo-
bile on the installment plan. The
conditional sales contract or chat
tel mortgage given to a finance
company is properly registered.
Taylor subsequently wrecks the
automobile, and takes it to a ga
rage where he authorizes the ne
cessary repairs to be made upon
it. The repair bill amounts to five
hundred dollars. Taylor is unable
to pay the garage bill He also
ceases to pay the monthly pay
mentS to the finance company.
May the finance company repos-
seSs the automobile from the ga
rage without paying to its pro-
prietor the five hundred dollar re-
pair bill?
No. In North Carolina a me-
chanic's lien for repairs is given
preference to the lien of con-
ditional sales contract or chattel
mortgage even though the latter be
registered and prior in point of
time.
The particular repairs were au-
thorized by a legal posseSsor of
the automobile.
Bill borrows Henry's automobile
and, whilffie being driven by Mill,
it is damaged in a collision. The
collisioni S not the result of any
fault or negligence on the part of
Bill. May Henry recover from Bill
a Judgment for damages to his
automobile?
No. Bill is not liable for any
damage done to the automobile
without his fault.
While John is driving an auto
IllODllS llc lldS DOllOMCo II Olll
Abner. the automobile is wrecked
as the result of the negligent op-
Grafton of truck driven by Frank.
May John recover the full amount
of the damage from Frank?
Yes. Although the borrower is
not answerable to the owner for
loss or injury to the property with
out his fault. the borrower may
sue and recover from a third
person the full amount of the
damages caused to the property in
his possession.
The borrower holds any amount
he RECEIVERS in excess of his Spe-
cial interest in trust for the owner
of the automobile. The owner of
the automobile in turn RECEIVERS
this amount from the borrower.

WIRED FOR EGGS

WOOD RIVER, Ill. (P)-Coaxing
an egg out of the gas tank of an
automobile is about as tough as
putting tOothpaste back into a
tube, but Ray EsteTlein did it.
Someone dropped an unbrOken egg
into the gasoline spout of his car
and it remained undetected until
a filling station attendant, dis
covered it,
The egg was lodged six to seven
inches down the spout and had to
be removed intact or it would foul
up the engine. A piece of adhesive
tape on the end Of a prod failed.
A bent wire finally did the trick,
but Esterlein says it was an eX-
hausting job.

President, in Pre-Takeoff Talk, Urges
Nation to Pray for Success at Geneva

Eisenhower flew across the Allan

hope that mankind's greatest step
toward peace and prosperity may
be taken at Geneva in the next
few fateful days
Aboard the Presidents personal
plane, the Columbine LII, were
Mrs. Eisenhower and their son,
Mai. John Eisenhower.
The Eisenhower plane reached
Keflavik, Iceland, Air Force Base
about 10 hours after taking off
from Washington at 5:18 pm. The
Eisenhower party had lunch with
President and Mrs. Asgeir Asgeir-
son of Iceland and others, includ-

He spoke in moving terms of
the latest speech by Soviet Pre-

He talked Of Cancellation and

he expressed are truly reflective
of the hearts and minds of the

AS well you know, United States is almost
wholly dependent upon imports of tin from foreign
countries and should there be an emergency such
imports could almost Our continental pro-
duction of which is mined in this northwestern
most section, is very small in comparison with our
imports
