Safety Council Notes

Watch out when kids are outi"
That warning and advice were
given to Delaware drivers yester-
day by j. James Ashton, Manager
of the Delaware Safety Council,
urged drivers to give full cooper
alton to the child pedestrian safe
ty program of the Council.
~Chiidren can hear safety ruses
day in and day out in school and
at home but still forget all about
them when a ball rolls out into
the street" Mr.. Ashton said.
He reminded drivers to keep a
constant lookout for such situations
and 10 be ready to act fast in an
emergency. The only way to COM
pensate for children's Needless
ness, he said, is by the use of
extra caution and alertness on the
part of every driver.
BE especially careful whenever
you drive near schools, play
erounds or any other place where
youngsters are likely to be found, /"
He suggested. Keep d sharp eye
out for signs, signals, traffic police,
school patrols and the youngsters
themselves. Even when you don't
see any children around, they may
be dangerously near. SO look for
such clues as trieSales, roller
skates and other toys lying around
and listen for the shouts of young
sters at play"
He also cautioned motorists to
give bike riders every break. Lack
of skill handicaps many young
riders while others suffer from
over-confidence and the result of
either can be disatrous If the driver
does not act quickly enough to
avoid an accident.

was discovered, doctors per-
mitted a more liberal diet but
used the. insulin to keep the
blood sugar down.
DR.. Lowenstein asked why. He
declared it is not the high con-
tent Of the sugar in the blood
that is dangerous, but rather the
increase content of chloresterol.
The physician declared dia-
betics are disabled and develop
hardening Of the arteries earlier
than do other persons because Of
the high fat content in the blood.
The fatty Observation-Disclosures
rol-deposits within the wall Of
the arteries and may lead to
narrowing Of these arteries. Fur
ther changes may result, in turn,
and cause coronary or cerebral
attacks.
Reduces InsuIin
DR.. Lowenstein said he feels
the administering of insulin can
be gradually halted unless ace
tone is noted in the urine.
Acidoses is regarded by physi-
clans as a danger signal and is
one of the complications of
diabets. Acetone is the residue
of certain elements that should
be assimilated by the body but
are not.
He has his patients take an
acetone test each morning, and
if this condition is noted pre-
scribeS a moderate amount of
insulin.
i DR.. Lowenstein said that in the
past two years he has followed
200 diabetes clinically and has
done laboratory study on IS.
Nearly all were much improved,
he said, as a result of his new
therapeutic concept.

ycSJcTudy III JIlc 0IleIdIOL-HdTk
Hotel. was presented in a paper
by DR.. B. E. Lowenstein of
Miami.
The paper charges that the
us of insulin. in more than
very moderate amounts, can do
more harm than good. While re-
ducing the sugar content of the
blood to too low level, it makes
insulin shock possible. Under
present methods, the patient is
given a high fat diet with the
idea that the fat helps to burn
the sugar.
A moderate high blood sugar
content. DR.. Lowenstein declared,
is better than dying too soon of
diabetic complications caused by
a high cholesterol blood content.
Or. Lowenstein stresses the use
of a high protein--low fat dict,
plus the use of enzime tablet
known as entozyme, which aids
the body to more properly digest
the proteins.
Sugar From PrOteins
The physician pointed out that
because of the diabetes lack of
natural insulin, sugar is not con-
verted into energy, and the body
draws upon its available proteins
which can, if necessary. be
broken down into more than SO
per cent sugar.
But this means that the body
building protein material as such
is deprived from the tissues, and
the person is subject to dehabil-
ttation.
In the days before insulin was
discovered, doctors often pre-
scribed even higher fat diets,
which we're in effect starvation
diets to try to keep down the
blood sugar level. When insulin
