tempted to monopolize and
have monopolized" the central
station protection business for

tiated price wars in certain
competitive areas ito destroy

The statement pointed out
that the Nations Chief Execu-

"In his opinion general educa-

The motion further asserted

mothers were early dropovts

have been deserted by their
husbands. Their lack Of edu-
cation and training has made
1t all but impossible for the
mothers to support themselves.
Therefore they have become

Thirty mothers, ranging from
10 to So, years old, will move
into the project house on or
about Wednesday. They will
stay there four to six months,
depending on their individual
advancement. All Of the moth
ers have one or two children.
A dependent mother with one
child receives 1927 q month In
ADO. At the project house she
viii pay $109 for room and

A mother with two children
receives approximately $156 a
month in ADO. She will pay
the project about $136 q month
for room and board, SIS for
clothing and So for personal
effects.
Work to Be Rotated
The mothers will perform
all Of the maintenance duties
in the home themselves. Duties
in the kitchen and nursery and
cleaning details will be rotated.
The instruction will be given
by representatives Of all the
District agencies involved in
the project. They are the Pub
lie Health Department, the
Board Of Education. the Voca-
tional Rehabilitation Depart
ment and the Recreation De-
partment. The q. 8. Employ
ment Service is assessing the
employment potentials Of the
women and will help place them
with employers when they have
completed the course. Equip
ment and supplies also will be
provided by private welfare or
CARNATIONS.
The goals of the project are
to give the mothers a way out
Of the welfare life. and, event.
ually. help them to become
Self-sustaining. The bulk Of
the expense will be born by
the ADO payments that the
women would receive anyway.

Mortality Of
Executives Lower
Thun Average

The mortality rate among eXecu-
tives was found to be lower than
that among the general male popu-
latiOn in a 10-year study reported
recently.
The study, reported in a publi-
cation of the American Medical
Association, did not support the
general impression that the blsi-
ness executive is "a harried and
hurried man driven ineXorably to-
ward an early death.
Robert M. Thorner, MP.H., and
E. l.. Crumpacker, M. D., Washing
ton, D. c., studied 451 white male
executives of one of the major in
dustrial corporations in the coun-
try who underwent annual medical
examinations under the h a | t b
maintenance program OF the firm
If the executives had expert
enced the mortality expected a
mong the general white male pop
ulation in the United States OF
comparable age, 25 deaths would
have occurred, the researchers said
| in the current (November) Ar
chives of Environmental Health
Actually II executives died dur
ing the period of observation, yield
| ing a standardized mortality ratio
of "A per cent, a considerably more
favorable experience for the ex-
ecutive than that of white males
of similar ages" they said.
COrOnary heart disease predOm-
mates as a cause of death among
the executives, the authors said,
but the occurrence is probably
not excessive"
The favorable mortality of these
executives is probably related to a
high standard of living and good
medical care, they said, adding:
"In the competition for executive
positions, a healthy person un-
idoubtedly possesses a competitive
advantage. There is, therefore, this
element of preselectiOn in this
population group One would also
like to believe that the periodic
health examinations received by
this group made a positive con-
tribution to their longevity. Un-
doubtedly, these periodic apprais-
ais, along with the generally bet
ter medical care received by the
group, are factors. Also of impOr-
tance are the favorable environ
mental conditions enjoyed by this
group, including better than aver
age food, housing, and recreation
al opportunities"
On the other hand, they said, the
stress encountered by this group
is often cited as tendency to re-
duce their longevity.
Zone may counter this argu-
ment by saying that stress, like
beauty, is in the mind of the be-
holder they said "The wag e
Garner who worries about a lay
off may feel as much or more
stress than the executive who
fears the loss of a $4,000 a year
job"
