How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Progress in Treatment of Asthma
By DR.. PETER }. sTEINcRoHN

Dear DIR. SteincrOhn: Our
son has had bronchial asthma
since he was seven years old.
He is planning on going to an
allergist for skin tests. In case
he should be allergic to rag
weed, grass, pollen or house
dust, would injections for
these be safe to receive?
Would you please give me
some more information about
asthma? I feel we have pro-
crastinated too long as it is in
not insisting that our boy 60
to an allergist. Thank you.
Mrs. M. S.
When the diagnosis of asthma
has been made, patients should
not go to an allergist in "des-
paration"-they should go early
for study and treatment. My
allergist friends tell me that the
time to attack allergic conditions
Observation-Disclosures they be q
chronic dermatitis, hay fever,
asthma Cor others)-is close to
their onset. This, of course, holds
true for most medical or surgical
conditions. Therefore, Mrs. M. s.,
don't hesitate to have your boy
take injections If they are in
dicated. Be thankful that the
cause" Of the trouble has been
located.
Most people know what asth-
ma is and how the patient suf-
fers. The entire bronchial tree
in the lungs narrows. Therefore
1t becomes difficult for the pa
tient to take in air-but even
more difficult for him to push
1t out again. AS a result, he feels

Although Mrs. Stephenson's
case is unusual and involves
technicalities of the Social
Security law, it we'll illustrates
the steps a person can follow If
he feels a bad decision has been
made about his Social Security.
It illustrates how a person Of
little means can go all the way in
getting a final decision. Mrs.
Stephenson got legal help with
out cost from a lawyer appointed
by the local Legal Aid Bureau.
The bureau is one Of a number
of private legal aid organizations
around the country to which
Ipracticing lawyers volunteer their
help in cases where persons can't
afford to pay legal fees.
And. it illustrates the degree
to which the Social Security
Administration tries to fulfill its
obligations as it sees them

making the Stephenson children
eligible for monthly payments
because of the death Of their
father. The mother couldn't get
such payments because she had
remarked. -
Marriage AnnuIled
In 1855, Mrs. Stephenson asked
for and got an annulment of her
marriage to Mr.. Hine. The court
gave the annulment on the
ground of fraud because Mr..
Hine hadn't told Mrs. Stephenson
before their marriage that he
had epilepsy.
The day after the annulment
was given, Mr.. Hine died.
1t was at this point that Mrs
Stephenson's fight with the So
cial Security Administration
started. She applied for social
security payments as Mr.. STEP
henson's survivor but was turned
down.
The social security people told
her she met all the requirements
to be eligible. except that she hac
remarked and this disqualified
her. They said the annulment
didn't change the fact that she
had remarried-at least in the
eyes of the social security law
She appealed the decision to 6
social security referee. A hearing
was held and he told her hi
agreed with the first decision.
And, he said. the annulment
wasn't valid because, when 1t was
given, Mr.. Hine had been granted
80 days to appeal it. Since he
died a day after it was given
all the conditions Of the annul.
ment hadn't been met. Actually
the referee said. the marriage
ended in death, rather than an.
nulment.
Mrs. Stephenson then took the
next step open to her. She went
to court.
Early this month, the court
judge told the Social Security
Administration its decision wal
wrong. He said the Social Sc.
curity Act should be literally in.

technicalities.

Asthma is common at all ages.
II it comes on before the patient
is 40 or so it is usually due to
allergen sensitivity: For example,
following hay fever or dust
allergy. Even foods may set of
the attack. After middle-age,
asthma is usually due to sensi-
tization to bacteria following in
fections that persist in the
sinuses or bronchi of the lungs.
Some patients have two or
three attacks a year and are COM
Ipletely free Of symptoms between
attacks. Others suffer through

WINGED that many patients are

THE DETAILS

Pearl Tam q career woman
in my early sos. I have worked
hard since I was Is. but I am
beginning to think I am out
Of step with the times. At least
that's what my mother says.
I have recently taken over a
new job In which I have ten
young girls working under me.
These girls do nothing but take
breaks and send out for coffee
all day long. The other day I
listened in on a personal con-
versation that took about half
an-hour. At the end the girl said,
well, sorry. have to hang up
now. I have to 60 out for my
coffee break"
The girls all hate me because
I try to get them to work. The
boss seems to know what is
going on, but when I suggest
firing any of these girls. he just
shrugs and says, They're all
like that"
Just the same, he expects me
to get work out Of them. I am
beginning to wonder If some
thing is wrong with my attitude
that is. wanting to produce a
good days work for my pay.
Mrs: M. TT try to tell Pearl
all the time that she is much
too serious about everything.
When my daughter comes home
from work. she is so exhausted
she can do nothing in the eve
ming but go to sleep. She worries
constantly about how to handle
the girls and keeps asking
Nom. what am / doing wrong?
Is it my fault?"
! tell Pearl 1t doesn't pay to
be serious and honest in your
work these days. She should be
more like those girls-just out
