FAMOUS FABLES
BY z. z. EDGAR

CONTROL-Bernard Baruch
finds his hearing aid a con-
venient instrument for control
ing conversation. Like a radio
he can tune in when the talk is
stimulating and turn 1t off
when a discussion drags.
At a dinner party, he was
seated out Of earshot from a
notorious bore who was mo-
nopolizing the conversation.
Finally, the lady seated next 70
Baruch whispered TO him:
He seems TO have an awful
lot TO talk about. / wonder what
he is saying?"
Il wouldn't know" replied
Baruch. II haven't tuned him
in for the last 10 yearsl"
EXPERIENCE-On one oc-
casion. after Sir Winston
Churchill had made a speech
in the House of Commons. a
political opponent jumped to
his feet and shouted angrily
you should know better
than TO make a speech like
that. After all, experience
teaches even fools"
I'm that case" replied
Churchill, you have my per-
mission to profit from my ex-
perience."

profit in like measure from de-
flation.
Some people at IS can make
considerably more money on
$4,000 than an annuity pays
unless they live beyond their
time. In stocks. at 5 per cent.
for instance. you can get $83
a month and keep the $780,
900 under your own control.
The pros:
With an annuity you just
don't have to bother any more.
You can 60 fishing and forget
the whole thing-your check
will come regardless. Trying to
invest $4,000 can be a con-
slant, troublesome and danger
Gus problem. Also you can wake
up some morning and find your

An annuity with a reputable

most other types OF invest
ments.

Advantages and Disadvantages
Now for some Of the pros and

by people who have tried them
in retirement:
The cons:
An annuity is a gamble with
death. II you live to 100 you

years after buying 1t you quite
obviously don't.
If imitation reigns. as 1t has
the last several years. you will
tighten your belt. The annuity
agrees to pay you so many
dollars. II the dollars drop in
value to Is cents, so many
dollars are still all you'll get.

THE COUNCILS VIEW

lin is lucky 10 nave q SlSLeT
who appreciates the seriousness
Of his situation. Unfortunately,
heckling seldom works in such
a case. Sometimes it even has
the opposite effect. A person
like Tim may feel justly pun
ished by a tongue-laShing from
his sister. Then he feels free
to continue behaving in the
same way.
One of the great misfortunes
of Tins situation is that his
behavior is seldom recognized
as a sign Of disease. Society is
now ready to recognize all
coholism as a disease because
its results are usually so dra-
matte. Besides, alcoholics bother
other people. A man like Tim
bothers nobody. but destroys
himself physically and mentally
as surely as does the alcoholic.
We do not refer merely to
Tins obesity, which in itself
is a bad sign. Tim has denied
himself all active pleasure in
life, outside Of eating. He UNI
doubtedly wants and needs
social life. He is using his
mother as an instrument to tie
himself down. He tries to avoid
living. He will not even allow
himself TO admit that he is suf-
fering.
Some individuals suffer with
tears and tantrums and learn
TO call attention to their
wretched plight. Persons like
Tim deaden themselves and
try TO lull others into believing
that all is we'll. But all is not
well. Tim should allow himself
TO feel his own pain and lone
illness. 1t will stir him into doing
something about his plight. His
family physician may be able
to help him past the first steps
with a good diet and may re-
commend some psychiatric
help as we'll.

dition is due to obstructive

Dear DIR. SteincrOhn: Why
do doctors disagree about re-
moving, or not removing,
nOdules Of the thyroid? What
Is in favor Of removal; and
what is against II? Mr.. L. S.
Many doctors are content to
observe a small thyroid nodule
at intervals before advising
operation. If it does not grow
larger or indicate evidence that
it is the seat Of hyperthyroid-
ism. they advise against sur
gerry.
Other physicians believe that
nodules should be removed as
soon as they are discovered.
These doctors would rather
prevent cancer of the thyroid
than have to treat 1t later.
Although statistics show that
these nodules seldom turn can
cerous, they would rather not
even take that small chance.
The decision on operation
depends upon many factors in
the individual patient. AS for
myself. although always a con-
sentative in my thinking, / have
usually advised the removal of
such nodules, especially when
discovered in patients over 40.

sion Is the chief cause Of my
husbands trouble. But as the
surgeon said, 'it's hard to

DIR. SteincrOhn, are you for or
against operation In such
cases? Thank you. Mrs. ID. C.
Although I usually suggest
conservative treatment for ul-
GER. complications arise which
often make us determine on the
surgical course.
If your husband had not had
a perforation; II he were now
symptom-free I would think
that medical treatment was
advisable. However, once there
has been a perforation. 1t US
ually indicates q large ulcer.
And these large. chronic ul-
GERS are ALSO liable to bleed
suddenly. Such hemorrhages
can usually be controlled, but
they are dangerous.
Therefore. I would guess
that your husband Is a can
didate for surgical treatment.
However. better call in an
other diagnostician for a fresh
opinion as to whether surgery
or conservative medical treat
ment is indicated.
Dear DR.. SteincrOhn:

II you are a man age IS and
you have $4,000, you can buy
an annuity that will pay you
$lO4 a month until you die.
The insurance company will
guarantee to make these pay

you live or die. Which means
the $4,000 will come back,
though not necessarily with in

(Mr. Hinnkle explains that
these figures, and others that
follow, are composite. Some
companies will pay a little
more. some a little less. Cana

pay more than United States

also are life annuities. Under
these there is no refund in case

used up. A man age IS with

PARALYSIS IS PERSONAL

There has been a lot of talk recently about polio statistics They look very good The incidence of the paralytic disease went down sharply in 1857. The Salk vaccine obviously works and works wonderfully well. There is considerable batting the back that victory is within grasp
 Fine and dandy. But do we know that 1857 would not have been light polio year anyway? We do not Polio is notoriously unpredictable disease, up year and down the next.
 The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis points out that there is thing we do know for sue and that is that lot of people either haven't been vaccinated at all, have not completed their full series of three shots These people will be in just much danger if next is heavy polio summer as though they lived before the age of Dr. Salk.
 Statistics are figures marks piece of paper Paralysis is personal your your children contract paraytic polio all the encouraging statistics in the world will not the tragedy And tragedy it is, in the fullest and most awful sense if men, women and children stricken by this venomous disease when the means to protect them at hand

2,8O9,3OO Claim Unemployment Compensation

WASHINGTON, R-The gov- ernment says 2,0O9,3OO workers claimed unemployment compen- sation in the week ended Jan. 4- an increase of 448,9OO over the previous week and a new record total.
 The Bureau of Employment Security said that although the figure topped the previous high mark set in January 1850, the current rate of unemployment among insured workers is 6.8 per cent, compared with 7.3 per cent in 1850.
 The bureau said the largest in creases in claims were reported in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Michi- gan, California, New York and North Carolina. Increases were reported in all but four states.
 The agency said the rise was due mainly to job cutbacks in metals, machinery and automo- piles.
