One Of the great dangers
to the patient who suf-
fers an attack Of coronary
thrombosis is the sudden,
sharp fall in blood pressure.
This effect must be reversed
as quickly as possible. I have
seen blood pressures drop
far below 100 systolic-even
as low as zero. One Of
the effective "vasopressor"
drugs (to raise presSure) Is
called Levophed.
When it is indicated, the
doctor usually introduces
this into the vein dissolved
in other necessary solu-
tions. Often the patient,
apparently beyond hope, is
brought back with this pro-
cedure. People sometimes
say: After all, what can
you do for a heart attack
except hope for the best?"
Levophed Is but one answer
to that question.
% HA
MANY CASES have been
reported In which ulcers
have been caused-or wors-
ened-by taking cortiSone
products. For that reason,
we hesitate to prescribe
such medicines when there
is a known history Of stom-
ach ulcer. Doctors also real
ize that there seems to be
some connection between
anxiety and stress in ulcer
formation. It's possible that
anxiety, If deep and pro-
longed, acts in some way on
the adrenal glands. They
may overact and the result
is similar to taking large
doses Of cortisone. Only a
theory, but interesting.
The person with back
pain who has q ruptured
disc usually doesn't have to
be convinced that he needs
an operation. He can't stand
the discomfort any more.
He can't sleep at night. The
pain may be agonizing and
made worse when he walks,
stands, coughs, strains, lifts
or bends. Traction and wear
ing special belts haven't
helped either. He finds no
relief in taking pills for pain
or by applying heat in any
form.
Nevertheless, there are
many patients who have
what we call "protruded
discs" Such people should
not rush into an operation.
Quite often conservative
treatment will eliminate the
need for surgery.

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I
came across a column you
wrote many months ago. In
it you said that people
should not make any i'm
portant decision when they
are tired; especially not late
at night.
Last night I had the
phone in my hand for the
purpose of calling q lawyer
friend to start divorce pro-
ceedingS against my huS-
band. Following your advice,
I decided to wait until this
morning.
What a difference q few
hours sleep make! I felt like
a new person. I convinced
my husband to go to a doc
tor to see if he could find any
reason for his being so
crabby and hard to live with.
Guess what! My poor
Tommy has been suffering
from an ulcer. Neither Of
us suspected that the ulcer
was eating him up; and
what was causing him to
chew me up.-Mrs. H., New
Jersey.
WHETHER the problem
is one Of health, business or
personal relationships, you
can't go wrong by postpon-
ing action until the sun

through the medium of a citizens board of tax review

East German Leader Vows to Put an End to West Berlin's Cold War

BERLIN tR - Walter Ulbricht, East German Communist leader, vowed Thursday to put an end to West Berlin "as a strongpoint of the cold war" when he gets a peace treaty with the Soviet Union.
 Soviet Premier KhrushcheV has promised him one by the end of the year.
 With conclusion of a peace treaty, even if it is only with the German Democratic Republic" ;" said Ulbricht, there will begin a new settlement of the West Der lin question. I want to leave no doubt about this.
 This means that the center of proVocations in West Berlin and it's misuse as strongpoint of the cold war will in any case be eli minated"
 Ulbricht has. made clear in the past that he wants full control over land, sea and air routes to Berlin. He has also said he will insist on the closing of the big reception center at Marienfelde, where 500 refugees from Com- munism are taken in daily.
 The only question, Ulbricht said, was whether the process would be "easy and painless or more difficult" Ulbricht spoke for 90 minutes to the Peoples Chamber, East Germany's Soviet style parliament.

Federal Debt at Highest Level of Any Fiscal Year-End

WASHINGTON lR - The gov ernment wound up it's bookkeep- ing year with the federal debt at $289,211,154,06 ,060.05 tn highest level of any fiscal year-end in history.
 The daily Treasury statement for June 30, issued Thursday, showed that the debt climbed about $2.7 billion from a year ago, because of higher spending and less-than-anticipated revenues.
 Because of various factors, the debt rise does not reflect accu- rately the excess of spending over revenues, expected to be about S3 billion.
 The precise deficit figure is ex- pected to be available within few days.

Real Estate Owners Offer To Put Up Apartments for Negro Diplomats in D. C.

WASHINGTON R - Several Washington to real estate owners offered Thursday to open large luxury apartment buildings to Negro diplomats in response to an appeal from President Ken nedy.
 Harris Wofford, special as- sistant to the President, convey ed Kennedy's views to a closed meeting of Washington real es- tate leaders called by the State Department to curb housing dis elimination against African dip lomats in the nations capital.
 A plea on behalf of the State Department was made by Un- dersecretary Chester Bowles.
 Kennedy's protocol chief, An gier Riddle Duke, reported that the real estate owners had shown most cooperative and positive attitude toward easing the dis elimination, which Kennedy be- ieves is giving Uncle Sam a bad name around the world.
 Racial snubs against Negroes in the semi-southern city are of increasing concern to the Kennedy Administration as new African countries send envoys here in growing numbers. The commit nists are ardently wooing the new nations and point to discri- imitation in America, especially in the federal capital, as evidence of U. s. hypocrisy.

US. Assails New Russian-KOrean Military Alliance

WASHINGTON lR - The Unit ed States assailed the new Soviet Korean military alliance Thurs day as ''link in the Communist colonial empire"
 State Department press officer Lincoln White also took issue with Soviet Premier KhrushcheV's s contention that the pact was necessary because of the actions of United States, Japan and other powers in the Pacific. KhrushcheV said these countries had rejected Soviet efforts to ease tensions and insure security in the Far East.
 White said the fact is that "it was the North Korean regime which com m | e d aggression against the Republic of Korea in 1850 and which has done nothing whatever to ease tensions in the area since that time"
 U. s. officials, surprised at an- nouncement of the new mutual defense pact, said it undoubtedly was still another sign of the ri- valry between the Soviet Union and Red China.

Keep Fireplace
Logs Outdoors
By ROGER c. WHITMAN

Question: We have some
logs for the fireplace stacked
outside which my husband
would like to put in the base
ment for more convel.ient
storage. They are from trees
that were cut summer before
last, and the bark is still on
them. If we bring these logs
into the house. is there any
danger of termites or other
insects being brought in?
Answer: I wouldn't bring
the logs in the house, for the
very reasons you mention,
even If you strip the bark.
Bugs can also work inside the
wood itself. Much better to
let 1t weather outside under q
tarpaulin or similar cover.
Increasing Dompness
Question: Recently our
home has become increas-
ingly damp; so much so that
our wallpaper is wet and at
the point of peeling off. We
have heated our home with a
coal furnace for about 10
years and we have never had
this difficulty before. What
could possibly cause this
dampness and what might we
do to control it?
Answer: Not knowing any
thing about your house struc-
ture itself (kind of material,
type of insulation, presence
of basement, etc., it Is
almost impossible to make
any recommendations.
However, in general, If this
Is q brick or masonry-type
building, waterproofing may
have deteriorated or cracks
developed to permit water
seepage; or If the plaster
walls were applied directly to
the masonry, without an in
sulating space between, mois-
ture may have finally COM
pletely penetrated t e walls
causing the formation Of con-
densation.
There may have been q
change in the water table In
your area, creating . condi-
ton of excessive ground
moisture penetrating the
house wall; or cracks in the
floor covering the ground.
Installing new insulation,
making the house tighter
would also prevent the escape
of house air humidity as
readily as before. Adding ap-
pliances, such as dish wash
ers or clothes washers, If not
properly vented when in
stalled. Or leaks may have
developed in the roof, or
chimney or window Hastings,
| etc.
