Castro Wants U. $. To Talk of Easing
 Hunger of Babes
By HAROLD-K. MILKS

HAVANA, LP - Fidel Castro Saturday accused American off cials of aiding conspirators against Cuba's revolutionary regime.
 The bearded Premier was in an alternating angry and laughing mood as he appeared before a nationwide television audience to tell how the counter-revolution plot was crushed.
 Castro denounced Dominican Republic strongman Generalis- simo Rafael L. .Trujillo as 'the financial boss of all those who are plotting against us."
 He also shorply criticized the United States, charging Cuban war criminals who had taken ref uge there were permitted to do as they like.
 He declared airplanes based in Miami have made repeated flights to Cuba dropping anti-government leaflets and picking up war crim- inals Castro claimed American officials could have stopped such flights if they wanted to.
 The revolutionary chieftain called the American foreign ministers conference, being held in Santiago, Chile, to deal with the Caribbean crisis, a farce"
 He ridiculed a program put be- fore the conference by U. s. Sec retary of State Christian A. Her ter for easing tensions.
 Castro said Herter talks about expeditions that come and go" instead of talking about Latin Americas economic problems - about the hunger of babies in our countries"
 Herter had told the Santiago meeting that some of the recent invasions of the Caribbean area were organized in other coun- tries with the knowledge and con- sent of officials whose govern ments had promised to impede such action"
 Herter did not mention Cuba or Castro by name. But Cubans took part in recent abortive invasions of Panama and the Dominican Republic.

MANY PATIENTS who
need it, are afraid to take
digitalis. They shouldn't be,
any more than one should be
anxious about taking insulin
for diabetes, or streptomycin
for tuberculosis. Many useful
drugs are potentially dan
gerous. but rarely so under
the supervision Of a capable
physician.
I'm afraid of taking digi-
tails" writes Mrs. KIM. of
Calgary. Canada. II have a
rheumatic heart and my
heart is fibrillating. I know
I need it, but I'm scared"
II your doctor says you
need it, take it without fear.
Just follow his directions
carefully. And when he says:
Come back in a month for O
check up"-don't put it of.
That's where the trouble
arises-when you treat your
self with this drug; when you
stay away from your doctor
so that he is unable to sniff
out the very first signs Of
overdosage.
We doctors are more and
more aware Of the symptoms
and signs of digitalis intoxi-
cation. I become Immediately
suspicious when a patient on
digitalis complains of seeing
yellow" When he comes in
saying that he has been hav-
ing nausea, or diarrhea dur
ing the past few days. When
he says, MY heart seems to
be skipping lately. It never
did that before" There are
many other warning signs.
These are red flares. They
call for a careful stethoscopic
and electrocardiogrpahic ex.
animation. Usually we can
tell if too much digitalis has
been building up in your
system. Once we know that,
the rest is usually easy.

Coroners have to be care
full about authorizing autop-
sizes. Unless justified, they
can lead to law suits and
sometimes to legislative fare
ups.
Coroner P. Jerome Lavi-
ano of New York's Suffolk
County has Just been named
defendant in q 100000 suit
for authorizing an allegedly
illegal autopsy on a 71-year-
old woman. Mrs. Mary Hill
denbrand. The husband,
son, and daughters of the
deceased contend that the
coroner acted with callous
disregard of propriety" be-
cause the death was from ap-
parently natural causes.
The coroner, on the other
hand. argues that an autopsy
was warranted because the
woman had fallen from her
bed a few days before her
death, and that he was duty
bound to investigate the pos
Sibilitv that the fall caIlSed
her death.
Even though the subse-
quent findings on that point
were negative. this is the
crux Of the matter. AutopsieS
can be performed without
permission in cases where
death appears to be caused
by homicide, suicide, or
criminal negligence. Also, it
may be authorized where a
person dies of unknown
causes without a doctor be-
ing in attendance. But II
these factors are not pres
ent, a coroner is ''liable" to
damage suits and removal
from Office. This is the issue
the Suffolk court will have
to decide upon.

Angeles coroner was in hot

recent years, and now begins
to look like a very solid talent.
The two big works on Miss
Neeley's difhcudt but very con-
Servative program were the
infrequently played early Bee
thoven c minor Sonata and
that strange dream-master-
piece of Maurice Ravel, Cas-
pard de la Mutt.
In both, she acquitted her
self nobly. The Beethoven,
taken at a very brisk tempo in
the outer movements, was ap-
propriately youthful and i'm
petuous. Miss Neeley achieved
an attractive clarity of texture,
and occasionally exhibited d
some brilliantly sparkling pass
age-work.
I thought that in the, Ravel
trilogy. she was most effective
in evoking the ghoStlike atmos-
phere Of lie Gibet," and her
ability to take the transcen-
dental technical difficulties of
the work in stride were ex-
cellent evidence Of solidly
grounded musicianship.
The only piece on the pro-
gram which approached novelty
was Aaron Copland's Gallic-
sounding "Passacaglia," a work
stemming from the years he
spent in Paris under Nadia
Boulanger's tutelage. Next to
the Ravel, it left an oddly
dated impression even though
its harmonic structure was
quite a bit more advanced.
Miss Neeley's reading Of the
C sharp minor Nocturne was q
bit on the blurry side, but she
did manage to capture much of
the impetuosity and evanes-
cence of the E major Scherzo,
a not inconsiderable achieve
ment.
BY and large, 1t was a very
satisfactory recital by q gifted
youngster.

So far. even my grand

you offer some advice, Abby?

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Experience CHANCES Treatment
By DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

Patients often ask: "Why
do you doctors reverse your
judgments so frequently2 A
treatment will be popular
during one generation and
frowned upon during the
next"
WE CHANGE. But the
wheels Of experience grind
slowly. What seems to be
the truth today may be
shown to be but a false mask
tomorrow.
If we didn't change you
would still be making faces
as you swallowed sulfur and
molaSses instead of the mod
ern vitamin. You would be
"hoping" with codein and
turpentine stupes in pneu-
monia, instead of more con-
f1dently relying upon anti
biotics.
The same is true for opera
tive procedures. In the past,
d tens of thousands Of teeth
were needlesSly extracted.
We thought removal would
help arthritics. In most in
stances, we quit when we be-
came "unconvinced." We
don't do wholesale removal
OF tonsilS and adenoids to-
day. There must be specific
indications.
Another example: Consider
uterine suspension opera
tions. Years ago, as I recall,
1t was a fairly common pro-
cedure. Not so today.
Mrs. Y. P. wrote to me a
q few days ago: What do
you think of uterine suspen-
sion? My uterus is tipped. A
friend told me if I had 1t
corrected that I'd be sure to
get pregnant. I want a baby
so much.
Not being a gynecologist I
can't offer my personal ex-
perience in the matter. How
ever, according to a recent
report in the American Medi-
cal Association journal, q

tories showed that 'in the

help my mother, could T?
We need this money to set UP
our own home.
Now that I am married I
realize that I sacrificed every
thing for my mother and sis
ter and I didn't get married
until so late because of them.
I didn't want to leave them
alone and they didn't want
to let me go.
My mother and sister have
treated my husband very
coldly and that's why he
doesn't want much to do
with them. But his family
has been wonderful to me
and I love them more than
mine.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Bernice's story that her
mother and sister kept her
from marriage is a rational
ization that should have gone
out with hooped skirts. A
modern young woman is sub
jected to a barrage of in
f1uences which encourage her
to socialize and marry and
break the chains of any who
attempt to hold her back.
AS for the idea that Ber-
nice was afraid to leave her
mother and sister alone, we
don't buy that either.
II Bernice will recognize
her own responsibility for the
course of her life, she will be
able to look at her mothers
and sisters situation in a
more kindly and sympathetic
spirit. The two women were
undoubtedly fearful of being
left without her and were
wrongly antagonistic toward
her suitor. But this doesn't
absolve Bernice from the
need to accord them faif and
decent treatment. We don't
think it is fair for her to
place the entire burden for
the mothers support on her
sister.
Lucy. on the other hand,
should try to recognize that
her own hostility is provoking
an unfriendly attitude on the
part of her brother-in-law.
