there was no need for concern. -
The test ran from 60 to 81 days. Each partici-
pant was checked every ten 10 fourteen days.
The results were instructive. For example, the
group on a straight diet without depressant had
the most difficulty. After three days, a frantic
housewife phoned in
Doctor" she exclaimed. I'm so hungry that
I'll be sick If I don't get full meal tonight
The physician tried TO calm her.
But so little food just doesn't satisfy my appe-
tite!" she groaned- 1--we got 10 eat more"
That night she went of her diet.
Each day. more and more in this group gave
up. Al the end of ten days, only four of the orig
inaI forty were still on their diet.
OF the forty given dextro- amphetamines, nine
were forced TO discontinue because of nervous
ness. insomnia and general uneasineSs-
Only those patients on the Iow-caIorie candy
were able to complete the test without side effects
or digestive disturbances.
During the 60-day period. those on dextro-
amphetamines lost an average of 7.3I pounds
Patients on the straight diet alone lost 400
pounds. But the people who ate the candy
(AydS) lost 1877 pounds
Another group of patients given the candy
without a prescribed diet lost more weight than
those on the straight diet alone (5.92 pounds
as against 400. This group even surpassed those
taking lozeneeS with ,200-calorie diet. Those
on methyl-celluIoSe waters. in addition TO the
I,200-calorie diet. lost {. 30 pounds
According TO the director of the medical centeE
and chairman of the team of physicians and psy-
biologists, The study was undertaken TO assess
the value of depreSSants as an aid to standard
I.20O-calorie diet.
We felt il an obligation on the part of the
medical profession to evaluate the safety and
efficiency of depressants currently sold BY pre-
scription and over the counter in drugstores-
The study convinced us that eight out of every
ten overweight people cannot regain a slim figure
or remain on a diet without the aid of depres-
SAINT Furthermore. the eight out of ten who use
a dietary crutch' lose weight faster, and in some
instances the weight loss IS triple that of those
with the unusual will power to remain on low
caIorie diet alone.
Those of our subjects who were given Ayds
the caramel candy, before mealtime. lost about
three times as much weight as those on a straight
diet alone. and nearly twice as much as those
using other depressants, including products pre-
scribed by physicians"
After the tests. one woman patient told the
doctors: Il didn't mind dieting this time. | had
always looked upon candy as a forbidden food
during diet. but this Ayds candy actually less
ened my appetite. The whole experiment was
fun. and now I know how to keep my weight
under perfect control"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-04-20

Doctors emphasize that fat has become one of
our most dangerous enemies, bringing in its wake
a train of diseases. Insurance statiSticians under
line the alarming picture by pointing out that the
death rate Of overweight persons is about one and
a half times that of simmer ones.
Yet, it is estimated there are IS ,0O0. 900 men
and women who recognize that they are over
weight and try to do something about by dieting.
Too often the trouble is most people simply can
not stick TO diet.
Recently, however, medical science has come
to the rescue by developing appetite depresSants
medically safe substances which help to curb
ones appetite. Generally speaking. there are four
types used in conjunction with diet:
I. Bulk. such as methyl-celIulose waters. These
work by simply filling the stomach with non
nutritious bulk
?. Dexro-amphetamine. chemical substance
that stimulates the central nervous system in such
fashion that the stomach secretes a smaller
amount of hydrochloric acid than usual.
}. Lozenges. containing vitamins and minerals.
4. Low-caIorie. caramel-type candy containing
vitamins and minerals.
Not long ago. to learn all that could be learned
about diets. depressantS and how people react to
both. a closely observed series of exhaustive tests
was undertaken by a famous medical center in
Cambridge. Massachusetts,.
Three medical specialists = a general practi-
toner and two psychologists -were appointed to
conduct the experiments.
They chose 240 obese men and women. rang
ing from n to TO- Secretaries, executives, house
wives, truck drivers. mailmen. policemen, bach
elorS. fathers, wives. spinSters.
By prior examination. the doctors screened out
"compulsiVe eaterS"-that is, men and women
whose overweight was symptomatic of a deep
psychological disturbance.
what we sought" one of the medical team
explained was a typical cross section of over
weight Americans who have always wanted to
lose five TO twenty pounds but never seemed TO
have the stamina to follow a reducing program"
The doctors began their test by dividing the 240
men and women into six groups of about 20 each,
according to age. sex. activity and degree Of over
weight. -Four of the six groups were placed on a
l.2OO-calore diet and given one of the four aPpe-
lite depresSants. The fifth group received the same
diet but no depreSSantS. The sixth group given
no diet, but advised TO curtail food intake with
the assistance of the caramel candy, to be taken
before each meal.
Each of the products given in the test was free
of dangerous side effects However, il is known
that one of the depresSants- dextro- amphetamine,
which can be obtained by doctors prescription
only-in certain cases can cause nervousness,
sleeplessness and tremor. Since the patients were
constantly under medical supervision, however,

Ike Received Gift From Bernard Goldfine

WASHINGTON, LR The White House acknowledged that industrialist Bernard Goldfine once gave President Eisenhower a supply of expensive vicuna cloth.
 Press secretary Hagerty said Eisenhower gave the material to friend. Hagerty added that the President does not remember the name of the friend.
 Hagerty called a special news conference to discuss the matter just ahead of an appearance by Shermn Adams, the Presidents chief aide, to tell a Congressional committee under oath about his own relations with Goldfine.
 The press secretary discussed an article by Drew Pearson which reported that Eisenhower had received a vicuna coat from Gold fine.
 Hagerty denied the story as to the coat, but conceded the gift of cloth.
 There have also been reports of a $700 vicuna coat gift to Adams from Goldfine, as well as direct testimony that Adams accepted more than $2,OOO of hotel hospi- tality from his Boston friend and made contacts for him with fed- eral agencies.
 Hagerty said at the outset of his news conference that he would try to discuss the Pearson column without getting angry. Then he went on to say that seven paragraphs of the Pearson column contained at least 10 complete falsehoods."
 Dealing first with the Pearson contention that Goldfine gave Eisenhower three-quarter length vicuna coat, Hagerty asserted: That is not true"
 He said Eisenhower does have two vicuna coats, one of which he has had since the middle 1940's; the other acquired about 1852. The press secretary did not go into any detail on how Eisenhower obtained them.
 Hagerty then said it is true" that along about November 1856 Goldfine did send the President some vicuna material.
 Eisenhower wrote Goldfine a letter of thanks, but never had anything made from the material, Hagerty said.
