DEAR DR.. STEINCROHN:
I agree that dieting is very
important ii you nope to
lose weight. I've lost over
80 pounds during the past
six months. 1T really takes
will power. l think you
ought to warn your readers
who want to lose, that they
may be in for some uncom-
Portable symptoms during
the first few weeks or
months of the dieting. For
example. 1 was tired to ex-
haustion the first few
months. 1t was a good ex-
cuSe to quit, but I kept
right on, and the tiredneSs
went away. Now that I've
lost weight, I've never been
peppier in my life. Mrs. Y.
THE PRIME requisite for
weight loss is having the
will to lose. When you really
have that you will be able
to overcome many disagree
able symptoms which often
accompany dieting. You will
keep on, not using them as
an excuse to stop.
AS it happens, fatigue is
perhaps the outstanding
complaint in dieters. Many
give up too soon because
they say they are too tired
to work, eat or sleep. How
ever, as in the case of
Mrs. Y. this disappears to
be followed by a feeling of
well-being.
Another common symptom
is weakness. I'm so weak"
says the dieter. What better
excuse to quit? One-third to
one-half of dieters complain
of dieting depression" Their
symptoms vary. About 20
per cent complain of nerv-

Indian Prime Minister Nehru
left Moscow today after three

problems with Soviet Premier
KhruShchev.
The 71-year-old In dian

Russia before returning home.
Mr.. Khrushchev saw Mr..
Nehru off at Moscow's Vnukovo
Airport, then took off for
Stalingrad for opening of a new
power station tomorrow.
In his farewell, Mr.. Khru-
shchev told Mr.. Nehru that
their talks had demonstrated

many current questions and
their warm aspiration for the
prevention of rocket-nuclear
war which would be irreparable
disaster for mankind"

Mr.. Frey refused to divulge
whether the man arrested was
a civilian or military officer.
! Mr.. Frey also announced that
two generals had been arrested
in Paris and that they were
either the leaders or in the top
echelons of command of the
Secret Army Organization in
Metropolitan France.
The generals were identified
as Paul VanuXem and Jean
Marie de Crevecoeur. Another
announcement said that Gen.
Vanuxem had been caught in
the act of a crime, which was
not specified.
There was no indication that
either was involved directly in
the attempt on the Presidents
life.
Mr.. Frey said that a number
of persons have been arrested
in five different cases involv-
ing the Secret Army Organiza-
ton in the past week. One was
arrested in AlgierS and was
reported to have been the head
of the groups financial net
work in France. Mr., Frey said
there had been complaints that
funds were disappearing.
Mr.. Frey added. Il do not
believe that the GAS has been
completely dismembered in
France, but it has been dealt

The secret army organiza-
ton, which has been blamed
by authorities for a long series
of bomb blasts in France and
Algeria, opposes Gen. de
Gaulle's desires to grant AL

end the nearly seven-year-old
war. 1t wants to keep Algeria
French.
It was the first officially
confirmed attempt on Gen. de
Gaulle'S life since he came to
power in June, 1858. Shots
were fired at his car when he
entered Paris shortly after its
liberation from the Nazis in
August, 1914.

10000 Troops
BY the Associated Press

In a major buildup to meet
the Berlin crisis, the Kennedy
administration yesterday or
dered 10000 regular Army
troops to Europe to bolster the
$50, 000-man American force al
ready there.
At the same time it cut off
Government-paid travel to Eu-
rope for dependents of fighting
men and of civilian employees
of the armed services. It was
explained that the problem of
finding transportation, housing,
schools and medical facilities
is too difficult at this time, in
view OF the troop movement.
This travel ban is effective
October 9. but a significant ex-
ception was made in the case
OF travel to West Berlin. De-
pendentS will still be permitted
to go there, apparently because
officials want to preserve West
Berlin as a symbol of freedom,
including freedom of travel.
They want to draw a con-
trast with the Communist ac-
ton in sealing off the border
so that East Germans can no
longer travel to West Berlin.
The 10000 reinforcements,
most OF whom will go to Ger
many. include 5000 previously
announced. Gen. George H,
Decker, Army Chief of Staff.
said Friday these 5000 would
be assigned to the three United
States infantry divisions in the
German area. He announced
also steps would be taken to
increase the INFLAMMATION of
these divisions.
There are two United States
divisions in the area, for a
total of five.

ban on travel were announced
by Secretary of Defense Nc

blamed for the assassination
attempt, made as the general
was driving to his country
home east of Paris.

president, imperturbable as
ever, told his aides loftily i'm
mediately afterward: This was
just a little joke in bad taste. "
He did not crack even into a

The attempt came about II
pm. as the president was max

through the rolling champagne
region to his home at Colom-

east of Paris.
Flames Scar Car
He had gone about so miles
when a sheet of flame suddenly
scared the car and the blast of
an explosion pelted the under
carriage with sand from the
shoulder of the roadway.
The three car motorcade
stopped momentarily.
After Gen. de Gaulle had
made sure no one was injured,
the presidential cars sped ahead
at normal speed and reached
Colombey les Deux- Eglises on
schedule.
The lower righthand side of
the presidents car was
scratched and marked by black

alerted by police radio, raced to
the scene. There they discov-

weighing almost 9 pounds hid

was a can that had apparently
