THE PROBLEM

MRS. o. WI must leave my
alcoholic husband.
o. W.-If I go back to IA I
can stop drinking.
THE DETAILS
Mrs. o. W.-Before we were
married five years ago, my hus-
band told me he had once been
an alcoholic. but hadn't touched
a drop in three years. During
the first year or two of our
married life he stayed on the
wagon, but after I became preg-
nant with our first child, he
started to take an occasional
drink with the boys on the way
home from work.
I never objected because I
feel that a man has to relax and
enjoy himself with his friends
a bit. and since I was going to
be more tied down at home, he
would have to entertain himself
without me. But then he started
going on real benders and was
on one the entire week was in
the hospital to have the baby.
His benders have been getting
worse and now that I have a
second baby I feel I must leave
him for the children's sake. My
mother is willing to take care of
the babies and I'll go to work.
He keeps promising to quit drink
ing and go back to AA if don't
leave him, but I don't trust him
anymore.
o. WI know that if / go
back to AA I can stop drinking.
I've done it before. My wife
talked me out of going to AA
meetings in the past because
she said I had her and didn't
need them. She called them a
bunch of DRINKS, but to her
someone who drinks but doesn't
belong to AA is just having a
good time" She resents my
friends from AA and seems to
think there is some disgrace at
tached to belonging to such an
organization. I love my wife
and kids and want to keep them.
THE COUNCILS VIEWS
Life with an alcoholic is GER
tainly more than difficult and it
is all too easy for the -drinker
to be self-righteous and to feel
abused. 1t is also all too easy
to overlook the fact that there is
such a thing as the drink
ing alcoholic" who goes on his
own kind of rampage-tempel
tantrums. tears, sulking and
several other varieties of personal
tyranny. Behind the drinker
there is often this non-drinker
who under the guise of helping
him drives him to the bottle.

son. With all the publicity that

petrate. And criminal lawyers
believe a great deal of embezzle-
ment is never uncovered.
Justified As Borrowing"
This. however, is the type of
embezzlement which the perpe-
traitor justifies to himself as
borrowing" Let's say some
clerk or teller needs 500 in a
hurry, so he "borrows" the money
from the cash box until next
payday" Then he pays it back,
and no one ever learns anything
about it. In spite of the fact
that the borrower" intended to
pay it back, he has still en-
bezzled.
Even though his crime has
worked no permanent damage,
he is just as guilty as the person
who blows $4,000 of borrowed
cash at the race track and gets
caught.
The extent of this kind of
thing can only be conjectured.
The planned embezzlement
which is undertaken by someone
who intends not only to take
the money, but to keep II. is
something else. In such cases
the theft is always discovered,
sooner or later, and it is prob
ably harder to get away with
than ordinary larceny since the
number Of suspects is limited.

BY PHIL YEAGER AND
JOHN STARK

Several striking embezzlement
cases have hit the front pages in
recent weeks.
One involved spinster Minnie
Mangum of Norfolk, Va, who
got 20 years for making off with
over 81 million from the build
ing and loan company for which
she worked. Another involved a
$4,000 shortage found in the
accounts of the Naval Relief So
ciety at San Francisco; for her
part in this affair, Mrs. Margaret
Cartmell got three years in the
Federal penitentiary.
Embezzlement, like larceny, is
stealing.
The difference is that the en-
bezzler takes money or other
property which he legally pos
SeSSes but does not own. The
larcenist, or ordinary thief. takes
something which he neither owns
nor has any right to possess.
Case of the Astute Banker
The distinction arose out of an
English case during the reign
of George III in the 1700s. A
banker who had gambled away
much of his clients money went
free because English law recog-
nized only the crime of larceny
and the astute banker proved he
was not guilty of that. Shortly
thereafter Parliament established
the crime of embezzlement.
Bank tellers, cashiers, treas
urers and others who are en-
trusted with other peoples
money are the ones most often
involved in embezzlement, sim
ply because they have the oppor-
tunity to embezzle.
But the nature of the crime
makes it an easy one to per.

crastinate with urinary bleeding
1t is imperative that you find
out at once if it is serious or
not. And don't be influenced by
the fact that the bleeding has
occurred only once.
DR.. Charles c. Higgins of Cleve-
land has written an interesting
paper on the significance of uri-
nary bleeding. He put it this
way: Because of the intermit-
tent character of the hematuria
bleeding in the urinary traet)
and the lack of other symptoms,
the patient frequently minimizes
its significance and, not being
especially alarmed, does not seek
medical counsel.
I'm other instances, the pa
tent may consult the physician,
complaining that he is passing
blood in the urine or has had
an episode of hematuria. When
at the time of examination the
urine reveals no gross easily
seem hematuria. the physician
may minimize the gravity of its
occurrence, deferring complete
urologic survey. Such procrasti-
nation on the part of the physi-
clan cannot be justified"

Why is this necessary? So you
won't give disease a head start.
Bleeding may be caused by many
conditions: some severe and
others not too important. But
the differentiation is important.
For example, DR.. Rathbun, in
revie ing the records of 203 pa
tie with urinary bleeding
IL at more than so per cent
had growth in the genito-uri-
nary tract. DR.. DoSs reviewed
a collected series of 5,965 cases
of bleeding. In the order of
their frequency he found these
causes: inflammatory LESSONS,
growthS, foreign bodies, tubercu-
loSiS and injury.
Even though there is no bleed
ing sufficient to be discovered by
the unaided eye. a complete
work-up is indicated If your doc
tor discovers (via the microscopy
that you have a few red blood
cells in the urine.
Whether the amount of bleed
ing is large or small, your doctor
must discover its cause. 1t may
be due to a stone in the kidney,
an inflammation or stone in the
bladder. taking Sulfa drugs or
salicylates, or a few dozen other
possibilities. Sometime trouble
in the colon or an inf1amed ap-
pendix will cause urinary bleed
ing.
Early diagnosis is a must. Even
if your doctor passes it off as
important, insist on a consulta-
ton with a urologist kidney
specialist.

Blood in the urine often will
bring patients running to theii
doctor. They are usually fright
ened out of their wits.
Such a reaction is under
standable: especially when bleed
ing occurs without pain IN a
patient who has had no previous
warning.
I recall one man who was
sure that it spelled f1niS." A
friend of his had recently died
of cancer of the prostate; bleed
ing had been one of his Symp-
toms. Fortunately. his fears were
unfounded. I sent him to a good
urologist who found nothing
radically wrong. I saw this pa
tient for years after, and he
never bled again.
People have a tendency, how
ever, to get into trouble with
urinary hemorrhage. They pro-
crastinate. If the trouble does
not occur again on the following
day, or during the next week OF
month, they pass it of as un-
important. Sometimes they &c

don't if the bleeding has quickly
stopped.

1t is during this period of ap-
parent safety that disease can
