1T seems like centuries but it's
only 20 years ago this September
that Hitler's Third Reich launched

prize comments:
The WIemar Republic - 'The
Western democracy Of today Is the

On the murder OF his cOmpan-
ION, Capt Ernest ROehm - Where
the destiny and existence Of a
people are at stake, all obligation
toward beauty ceases Success
is the one earthly judge concern
ing the right or wrong Of such an
effort"
German foreign policy - ""The
aim Of German foreign policy Of
today must be the preparation for
a reconquest of freedom for to-
morrow The question is
not: how shall we manufacture
arms? But: how shall we manu-
factI1re the spirit which enables a
people to bear arms?"

DR.. John Brown Is a Negro eye
surgeon. He is on the staff of
top-flight hospital, drives new
Cadillac and owns 22-foot cabin
cruiser.
He could, if he desired, practice

He can : and does operate

He can golf on Miami's NUM-

He can rent a room in a big

Why then does he choose to re-

DR.. Burrell reported results of
more than a year of clinical ex-
perience.
Every ten minutes somebody in
the United States becomes a dia-
bette. Although the disease can
and does strike youngsters, dia-
betes is most common among men
and women in their forties and
fifties. 1t is this older group which
benefits most from the oral drugs,
doctors say.
Approximately one million peo-
pie have diabetes without knowing
it. Often the diabetes is discovered
when the patient seeks medical adj
vice for an altogether unrelated
problem. or one that is seemingly
unrelated. Some of the usual symp-
toms of diabetes are increased
thirst, constant hunger, loss of
weight, frequent urination, itch
ing and easy firing. Take such
symptoms to your family physi-
clan.
Early diagnosis and treat
ment of diabetes is important. And
today, with further knowledge and
new drugs like Diabinese, doctors
are able to help diabetes lead
near-normal lives.
