How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Measles During Pregnancy
BY DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

there is not much chance Of
anything uptoward happen
ing.
The question for the need
, Of therapeutic abortion
arises when q pregnant
woman has come down with
Rubella during the early
months. The decision for
that procedure will depend
not only upon the attending
physician-but also upon the
patient.
1t is in the earliest weeks
Of pregnancy-up to the
fourth week-that the grow
ing foetus In the mothers
womb-is most susceptible
to damage from the measles
infection.
EVERY DOCTOR has this
experience at some time in
his practice. He prescribes
for a patients nerves" The
patient returns in a month
and the doctor says: How
do you fell?" Much better"
says the patient. And the
pleased doctor says: II knew
that medicine would help
you" But the patient ex-
plains sheepishly: ITO tell
you the truth, doctor, I for
got to get your prescription
filed" 4,
Embarrassing But If the
doctor ventures further into
the patients history he will
find that something has hap
pened to take the place Of
medicine in a bottle"
! have had patients tell me
that they found a new, won
derful job; or that they had
prevented an imminent di-
vorce; or that some other
worry that had been bother
ing them for months had
one because their anxiety
was not based on facts.
Recently I have heard Of q
series Of so psychoneurotics
who refused treatment. New
ertheless, the doctor was
sufficiently interested to fol-
low their case histories for
over five years. He found
that in almost two-thirds Of
these cases, there was marked

Dorothy thinks I don't spend
enough time with our par
ents. who are elderly and in
poor health.
I visit them with the chill
dren one afternoon a week,
and one evening I have them
over to dinner. They seem
satisfied. Only Dorothy COM
plains. Dorothy speaks Of all
she sacrifices to keep our
parents from being lonely.
but she is often impatient.
even cruel, in the way she
talks to them.
Dorothy RI know I'm
sometimes impatient with
my parents. but who wouldn't
be If they were in my place?
Inez has no idea what it is
like living with old people
who are often cranky. / know
I shouldn't feel this way. but
sometimes 1t gets on my
nerves.
If Inez visited more often
I wouldn't have to feel guilty
every time I 60 out. It is
nerve-wracking to have this
constant responsibility. I
have had to take it for the
past five years and some
times I wonder whether I'll
be able to survive it much
longer. I haven't had q real
vacation in three years be-
cause I've been afraid to 60
too far from home.
The COUNCILS VIEW
We suspect that Dorothy's
problem is with herself
rather than her parents.
Older children who lack a
sense Of self reliance often
complain Of their parents
need Of them. They are
naturally ashamed of facing
the fact that they need their
parents. The impotence
Dorothey expresses with her
parents cranky ways, her
"nerve-wracked" condition,
are fairly sure signs that she
is somewhat disguised with
herself. Those who are
happy within themselves
manage to be patient with
both the old and the young.
Dorothy evidently feels in
the position of a child in her
parents home. She is prob
ably aware that she would
be somewhat at a loss with
out her parents.
Dorothy will have to build
more Of a life for herself.
If she wants marriage she
should turn her energies to
getting it instead of wasting
herself in idle resentment Of
her "fate."

was sparse, most Of it on the

a truck passed in the other
direction with some Russian
soldiers.
After Eisenach, you drive

Napoleon had his great meet

Turned Down Again
In. Leipzig I registered with
the police and asked about
visiting Eisenach. They said to
go to a special visa Office. There
I filled out two pink cards stat
ing my name. residence, ma
tionality. previous visits to East
Germany. purpose Of the pres
ent trip. reasons for desiring to
extend the visa. and so on.
"It just happens" said
another vopo. "that I have had
orders not to grant any ex-

I went back, taking the pre-
caution to see the excellent
museum devoted to Bach in
Leipzig.

"Why?"
"Your visa is good only for

you cannot go to Eisenach."
It did not seem worth while
to explain that that was just
the reason for asking an ex-
tension. \
So I had q second look at

/ have lust received a lettel

/ have just received a letter
from a young woman who
has had her first baby. Il
was written with a sigh Of
relief" For this young
woman had gone through
pregnancy with the fear that
her unborn child might
have congenital malforma-
tons. She had developed
German measles during her
fifth month of pregnancy
but everything had turned
out all right.
1T WOULD BE BETTER
II all expectant mothers
gave a history of having had
German measles when they
were children. But as this is
not true, both doctors and
their patients are often faced
with the problem Of what to
do and what to expect when
a young. pregnant mother
to-be comes down with Ger
man measles.
Ideally. all young girls
should be exposed to German
measles. Unfortunately, the
medical profession does not
have a safe active immuniza-
ton against Rubella. How
ever, a young woman in her
early months Of pregnancy,
recently exposed to Rubella,
should receive immune glob-
ulin to lessen her chances Of
coming down with it.
Just what are the chances
Of trouble in the infant when
the mother has had Rubella
during pregnancy? At one
time it was thought there
was probability of congenital
trouble in the infant in 8
out of 10 cases If the mother
had been a German measles
patient during her first three
months Of pregnancy. And
in 2 to Z cases out Of 10 If
exposed during the second
three months. And from zero
to 20 per cent If exposed
during her last three months
OF pregnancy.
RECENTLY, HOWEVER,
the statistics are not so for
bidding. They state that If
the mother gets German
measles during the first
three months there is only
a 1912 per cent incidence
Of congenital malformations
IN the infant. And that If
German measles attacks the
mother during the fourth to
ninth month of pregnancy,

Goodyear Award
Winners Return

Oscar Peterson and Oscar Kva-

nations outstanding farmers and
ranchers who have returned to
their homes after collecting their
rewards for being named national
soil conservation champions for
their respective state.
The men are winners of Good
year Tire & Rubber Company's
twelfth annual Soil Conservation
Awards program covering the fis-
cal year 1958-1959. The grand
award was a vacation trip by air
to the Wigwam, a luxurious guest
resort on Goodyear Farms, Litch-
field Park, Ariz., near Phoenix.
Each winner was named at the
state level by a board of impartial
judges, comprised of leading agri-
c~ulturalists, in so competing units
covering every state except Alaska
and Hawaii.
The soil awards program is de-
signed to increase good soil con-
~servation practices. Grand prizes
are awarded to soil conservation
districts in the so competing units
which are considered outstanding
for the year in regular soil con-
servation work. The winning soil
conservation district in each COM
peting unit or state sends its
governing body member who has
worked the hardest and accom-
plished most, on the vacation trip.
This member of the soil conser-
walton district governing body is
accompanied on the vacation out
ing by the districts top cooperat-
ing farmer or rancher.
While enjoying Arizona's sun
shine and desert air, the 100 win
ming conservationists inspected the
states conservation activities and
irrigation farming on Goodyear's

tainment program included desert
tour, recreational facilities of the
