Illness in Your Head Can Be Cancer
By DR.. PETER }. sTEINcRoHN

friend of mine was going to a

doctor. He was taken to the
hospital and when they opened

far gone with cancer. l could

When he can't find the trou-

no shame in calling for help

THE DETAILS

Wilma RI am 18 and en-
gagged to a man of %. We are
planning to be married in a
few months.
One thing botherS me very
much. Bert has a lot of friends
who don't seem to like me very
much. His closest friends, parti-
cularly. don't even invite me
over when Bert goes to their
home. It's true that most of
them are older than l am, but
that doesn't count so much
when you are engaged. l al
ways thought an engaged cou-
pie should be invited as a pair.
My mother says it's not i'm
portant. and that l shouldn't
be one of those jealous women
who have to watch a man on
every step. I don't want to be
like that. but / do feel left
out.
Herbert D.-Wilma is so SEN
sitive. If people don't make a
fuss over her. she right away
thinks they don't like her.
Actually. most of my friends
are Older than I am. and ma
turally. they look on Wilma
as kid. The KS. who have
been my closest friends for
years. think I'm rather foolish
for planning to be married to
such a young girl. Wilma looks
and acts even younger than
her age and l have been going
with a rather sophisticated
crowd.
l certainly don't want to give
up my old friends and / don't
want to make them or Wilma
uncomfortable by forcing them
together. Actually my friends
have often said. offhandedly
Bring Wilma But it always
works out awkwardly.

ahead as far as next year
when Wilma will be his wife

enough to run around with his

poets Wilma to age several
years right after marriage, he
is as wrong as he can be.

No Tax Savinq
Expected From
.ManpOwer Cut
BY ELTON c. FAY
Associated Press stan Writer

Don't expect a 5000 million
tax saving Just because the
Pentagon is cutting military
manpower by 100000 men.
Rising prices all through the
military probably will offset
the saving.
In getting President Eisen-
hower's approval for a reduc-
ton of 100000 from a present
authorized manpower level of
2.8 million. Secretary of De-
Tense Wilson said the cutback
would make it possible TO re-
duce by approximately $500
million the funds previously re-
queSted" in the fiscal 1858
money bill.
1t is probable the reduction
is one of several procedures the
Defense Department is taking
to hold spending to the $3S bill
lion level during the fiscal year
which started this month.
Other Measures Mentioned
Last month at a news con-
ference, Wilson said. a mild"
stretchout in procurement of
equipment and a gradual re-
duction of personnel" were two
likely methods for keeping
Pentagon cash spending within
the $38 billion limit proposed
in the budget.
Mr. Wilson said when the
S38 billion figure was submitted
last January, it seemed "rea-
sonable forecast" But since
then. he said, expenditures
have increased beyond expecta-
tionS.
Meanwhile Senator Chavez,

power reduction order. and the
action of Budget Director Per-
cival Brundage in asking all
agencies to hold spending to
last years level.
The House slashed more than
$2.5 billion from the original
administration request. Part of
that was offset by authority to
transfer unused funds previ-
ously appropriated. Both Mr.
Eisenhower and Mr.. Wilson
then appealed to the Senate
TO restore about half the House
cuts, and the Senate voted to
restore $97l.5 million. That
sent the bill to conference.

FroIicking NH Monkeys Spurn
TronQui|izers as People Business
By LEE WALSH

Man may feel the need for
tranquilizing pills. but not a
monkey.
For him. tranquiliZers are too
much people business, and
he won't monkey with them.
At least the species of monkeys
used in medical research won't.
So say officials of the Ma
tional Institute of Neurological
Diseases and Blindness here.
which carries on research with
simian subjects on the tropical
island of Caya Santiago. Just
of Puerto Rico.
Seems he's pretty adamant in
his mistrust of the pills. too.
Just one taste of a banana
or orange with nembutal or
reserpine in it and he'll throw
it on the ground" says DR..
William F. Windle, chief Of the
Laboratory of Neuroanatomical
Sciences at NH.
Hes smart. It's hard to
give a pill to a monkey. He's
too inquisitive. He'll tear it
apart and throw it away" he
adds.
Unusual Type of Colony
The monkeys tested with the
tranquilizers are members of
the only free-ranging monkey
colony in this hemisphere, and
at present are being used in
experimental studies in cerebral
palsy and mental retardation
and other neurological deficits,
according to DR.. Windle.
In order to study them, we
had to catch them. he says.
We put mechanical feeders
with food inside enclosures to
capture them at first. We
identify them, study them and
turn them loose.
But it didn't take them long
to get wise to that, and they
stayed away. Sometimes they'd
sneak up during the night, but
never during the day.
Then we tried the tram
quilizers. That didn't work.
Finally. we hit upon what
you might call a French
Mickey Finn. The French
developed chemical. chloro-
losane, akin to a Mickey Finn,
and that did it." he says.
BOBBY Trapped Grapes
"They love grapes. So we put
it inside them. We tried it on
one big fellow who licked it
right out of the grapes. He
seemed to like it better than
grapes. Either they can't taste
it, or If they can. they like the
TASTE" he says.
The Caya Santiago monkey
colony has gone through 1.-The
viciSsitudes of war, famine and
peStilence," says DR.. Windle.
The first monkeys were
brought to the island in 1888
by Columbia University. The
university leased the island
from absentee Spanish owners
and research facilities were set
up to study the monkeys.
Three hundred and fifty of
the monkeys were freed on
the island, but many of them
were found to have tuberculo-
sis. Later, the colony was rid
of the tubercular monkeys and

SECURITY FOR YOU
u. S. Offers
9 Programs.
OF Security
BY RAY HENRY

When most people talk about
Social Security" they usually
mean the Federal Govern
ment's program Of Old Age and
Survivors Insurance.
But the program is only one
of nine separate ones set up
by the Social Security Act
when it was passed by Con-
gress in 1885. All Of them have
been expanded since then and
are still going strong.
Four of the programs cover
cash assistance to the needy
aged, disabled, blind and de-
pendent children. Three help
the states give various kinds of
services to mothers and chill
dren.
The other program provides
a system of unemployment in
surance for some AZ million
workers. Under it, most Of
these workers can collect week.
ly unemployment pay for q
limited time if they lose their
jobs through no fault of their
own.
SIS Billion Paid
Last year nearly five million
jobleSs received nearly SIS bill
lion in unemployment pay to
bridge the gap between jobs.
Perhaps, thousands more
could have collected had they
known they were eligible.
Here's a broad-stroke picture
of the program to help you if
you should lose your job:
The program is run jointly
by the Federal and State gov
ernmentS.
The Federal Government
sets down the broad operating
rules and handles the money
taken in. The states pay out the
money and set the rules as to
how unemployed workers may
qualify for payments, how
much they may collect each
week and how many weeks
they may receive payments.
Tax on PayrOlls
The money for the program
comes from tax on the pay
rolls of all employers who have
at least four workers during 20
or more weeks of the year. The
amount of tax paid varies from
state to state and from en-
ployer to employer, generally
depending on how much un-
employment an employer has
in his business. The average
tax paid is about 2 per cent of
an employers payroll. In two
States = Alabama and New
Jersey = employees also must
pay an unemployment tax.
Because the State require
ments to draw the payments
vary widely it's impossible here
to be very specific about eligi-
bility in individual States.
But, in general, here are the
basic requirements you must
meet to get unemployment pay
/. You must make a claim
for the pay at State employ
ment office and register fol
work.
2. Your previous job must
have been covered by a State
unemployment pay program.
3. You must have had a GER
tain amount of pay for work
in a covered job in a specified
period during the year or two
before you lost your job.
4. You must be able to work
and available for it.
5. You must be ready ano
willing to take a suitable jot
if one is offered.
How much you'll get If you
meet these requirements viii
