JOHN STARK

At Christmastime, people
often write in to ask what
to do about unrequested items
sent to them, usually via the
mails. Numerous families,
for example, receive pack
ages of greeting cards they
haven't ordered. They don't
want them and would like to
know how best to handle the
situation. Do you have to
return unsolicited merchan-
disc, If you don't wish to
accept it? What are your
legal obligations in such
cases?
The answer, legally, is that
you don't have to accept
them. nor are you required
to return them. So long as
you don't use the article or
treat it as your possession,
you have not assumed any
liability TO pay for it.
How does this work out
practically? The best thing
to do is to send q postcard
to the sender telling him to
pick up his merchandise.
Meanwhile, the package
should be set aside unopened,
and of course unused-just
as you might keep a package
for q neighbor who was away
on vacation. Actually, you
probably don't even have to
send the card-just put the
item away until the sender
decides to do something about
1t. But sending a card clears
up any possible argument
about the fact that you did
not accept the article. OF
course, If you take the
article out of the package
and set it UP on the mantel-
piece, you may be stuck for
the purchase price.
Under contract law, o per-
son who sends you an unso-
licited article is making you
a sale offer. You can reject
this offer by telling him so.
If you don't say anything.

Russian and American scien-

on how to fight cancer, heart
disease and polio.
DR.. H. Van Zile Hyde, assist
ant surgeon general for inter-
national affairs, said last night:
We'll hold meetings on each

the cancer and heart disease
meetings will be held in the

they'll switch sites in 1851"
The two-year agreement was
signed in Moscow last month
as part Of a broadened ex-
change of medical research

ments for increased co-opera-
ton stemming from the Sep
tember visit of Soviet Premier
Khrushchev.
DR.. Hyde said the agreement

Beach Toys
For the beach, inflatable

Star stan Writer

AS every parent who's been
around knows, a long car
ride with bored children can
shatter the nerves and ruin
q vacation.
Parents might better leave
out the toothpaSte, even the
insect repellent-when pack
ing for a summer excursion
than forget the play items
so vital to keeping peace on
the open road.
With this in mind, a local
authority has considered the
subject of travel-toys and
come up with a few Sugges-
tons for fathers and moth
erS planning a family trip.
First of all, says this ex-
pert who's been in the toy
business for years, car (also
plane and train) toys should
be inexpensive, since many
if not all will probably be
lost enrOllte.
Small and Compact
They should be small and
compact, the better to pack,
and have an adhesive quail
ity, so the parts of the toy
won't spill all over the seat
and floor while the car is
moving.
The toy chest (Which
might be a pillow case or
d shopping bag should in
dude a variety of things, al
loving for frequent change
offs, because the average
youngsters span of con-
centration isn't very great.
Our consultant recon-
mends the following as ideal
travel toys:
Magnet kits-theSe include
o magnet and iron Shavings,
so enclosed in a cardboard
frame that they may be
pushed around in a variety
of patterns, but will not spill.
The action is fascinating to
children, according to the
toyman.
Peg-board games, such as
peg-checkers, peg-chess and
tic-tac-toe - also highly abb
Sorbing and non spillable.
The pegs hold fast in their
holes even on bunny roads.
Vest-pocket puzzles - good
for older children-and mini
allure games. In this category
he made special mention of a
pocket-size action game called
"Squiggles," in which a glob
of elusive quicksilver is to be
unanswered into the center
of a maze. It's for one person,
age 6 or up, and costs less
than a dollar.

Called "SOfties"


In order to persuade women
to stay on the job, the East
German government is now
considering the suspension, or
at least the reduction, of
sickness allowances. The gov
eminent is calling women
who go on sick leave "softies."
The exploitation of female
labor in East Germany is a
part Of the Communist doc
trine Of Equality of Sexes"
Under the red labor system,
women are integrated into
jobs previously monopolized
by men because of the heavy
physical work involved.
Employment Of women in
mines. for example, is re-
garded as part of Progress
Sive Socialism"
At present between $4,000
and 10000 women are en-
ployed in the state-run coal
and uranium mines in East
Germany. They work 12-hour
shifts without a break.
In addition to these, about
$500 women work at a fac
tory in Magdeburg construct
ing heavy machinery, $500
women at a State-run rolling
plant, 1900 women in a heavy
cable factory and 1000 in a
fertilizer plant. These are
only a small part of the East
German huge female labor
force.
The women in Communist
East Germany work at
strenuous manual labor in
steel mills side by side with
men, melting down crude
steel. They haul heavy equip
ment around locomotive re-
pair shops and load and
unload tools which often
weigh several tons.
Use Rivet Guns
The women also work with
shovels grading parks and
road shoulders. They labor
on construction sites and
handle rivet guns and weld
ing equipment. At railroad
stations and shipyards they
carry heavy goods over long
distances.
Some 40 per cent of the
working population in COM
munist East Germany are
women. Last year 46 per cent
of all jobs in state-run en-
terpriSes were given to wom-
en-.
The East German women
workers are confronted by
even more difficult tasks in
the future. The red rulers
have declared that they in
tend to raise the production

it can only accomplish its
goal through the employment

For example. nearly two thirds Of all Ameri-
cans under 40 arc still running the risk Of polio
because they have either not started or not
completed their polio shots. Thousands Of
children who have recovered from rheumatic
fever are destined to suffer heart disease in
later life because they are not following through

Thoughtlessness, negligence, the lit won't

why disease strikes some. But what about
those who fail to take precautions and get by
with it? What about those who do take pre-
cautions, but lose the battle anyway?
Differences in the fighting forces within us
may or may not be the entire answer. We
still have much to learn about these differ
ences, but we know that diet, fatigue, general
physical condition affect our fighting ability.
Many people have acquired immunity to
polio, tuberculosis, and other diseases without
even knowing it, so easily did their bodies fight
off these invaders. Doctors and nurses, for
example, are exposed to more diseases than

Why does fatal illness strike some people
in the prime of life while others live to ripe
old age? Why do doctors and nurses seldom
catch their patients diseases? Why, even in
the days Of terrible plaques, were there always
some survivors?
Man has asked such questions since the
beginning of time. But we have yet to learn all
the answers. In fact, the more we learn, the
more we marvel that the human race still
exists.
All around us are billions Of bacteria,
viruses and other invisible parasites, many Of
them harmful. Our bodies are backgrounds
where war is constantly waeed.
When the number of invaders is small or
when their power to harm is slight, they are
painlessly routed by the body's defense forces.
But if the invading force is numerous or pow
enul, or If the body'S defensive forces are
weak, we can feel the battle raging; in short,
we are sick. Whether we live or die frequently
depends upon whether the parasites or our
own defensive forces win the war.
Strategic Warfare
Until the 1905, when Louis Pasteur con-
ceived the germ theory Of disease, man had to
depend entirely upon the natural reactions Of
his body to defend him against these invaders.
However, once it was known how harmful
invisible organisms could be and how they
got into the body, it became possible to plan
strategic warfare. We learned how to
