New Brain Surgery
Aids Disabled Folks

A new surgical technique has
produced gratifying" results in
patients incapacitated as result
brain becoming weakened and dis
tended, according to an article in
a recent Journal of the American
Medical Association.
The condition was corrected by
enclosing the dilated part of the
blood vessel in plastic jacket
which both constricts the a
somewhat and also prevents fur
ther expansion, Edwin NJ Todd,
NJ. D.; C. Hunter Sheldon, MD;
Benjamin l.. Crue, Jr., Md; RObt.
H. Pudenz, MD, and William F.
Agnew, MS, Pasadena, Calf, re-
ported.
The bulging blood vessel, tech
nically termed intracranial aneu-
rysm, exerts pressure on surround
ing tissues and nerves which can
produce pain and paralysis. If this
blood-filled bulge ruptures, a fatal
hemOrrhage may occur.
The plastic coating technique
was designed for only the more
complicated of these conditions
which cannot be corrected by ty-
ing off the circulation to the af-
fected area, the authors explained.
Although no adverse reactions to
the implanted plastic has been en-
countered, they said, further study
is necessary before the real value
of the technique can be deter
mined.
The plastic employed is a rapid
hardening silicone rubber which is
resistant to moisture and oXida-
ton, they said. 1t can be prepared
and applied easily and nodded
precisely, they said. Although
tough enough to contain the di
lated area, they said, the plastic is
sufficiently elastic to permit un-
impeded flow of blood
The authors described three
cases in which the patients, who
had been incapacitated, showed i'm
provement after the plastic jacket
operation.
A 52-year-old woman returned
to a normal life six months after
the operation, a 40year-old wo-
man resumed teaching within two
months after her operation, and
the third patient, a woman, 81, is
able to perform limited household
chores and is continuing to i'm
prove, they said

or not. the cost of government
programs in dairying is TWO
million dollars a day.
This has caused Washington
officials a lot of embarrass-
ment and the taxpayer is de-
manding that something be done.
Dairynen themselves have
different views on production
controls depending on their own
situation. Dairymen with big
herds would probably benefit
from compulsory controls that
would limit production. They
could profit from their present
volume and a small increase
in the price of milk. Young
farmers just getting started
would face a different situa :
tion. Even with higher prices,
their present volume of busi-
ness or a smaller one would
not provide an adequate STAN
dard of living.
Making production rights sal
cable, as some have proposed,
would not solve the problem.
As dairying became more prof
table as the result of produc-
tion controls the right to pro-
duce might be the most expen-
sive part of going into the dairy
business.
AS you consider the dairy
man, you can see he has prob

citation.
SYMPTOMS of high-altitude
sickness are drowsiness; head
ache; blueness of the nails,
lips, nose and ears;a feeling
of warmth and flushing of the
face soon after arrival; troub-
led sleep; dizziness; irrita-
bility, and shormess of breath.
There are some precautions
that may help prevent distress
if you have to make a fast
trip from a low level to high
elevations. Before the trip, get
a good nights rest and avoid
alcoholic beverages and heavy
smoking. A good breakfast an
hour or so before departure
is all right, but no food should
be taken during the rest of the
trip.
Reduce physical activity DUR
ing the trip. Sit quietly as
much as possible. After ar
rival in the high altitude area,
go to bed for a few hours and
eat very lightly. Indulge in only
light physical activity during
the first "a hours. Walk, don't
run, If you have to climb steps
to a hotel or lodge.
Patients with certain heart
and respiratory conditions may
encounter more serious trouble
by abrupt change to high al

have noted that most patients

Dairymen
Have Many Problems

Like many segments of A
merican agriculture, the dairy
man has problems.
He gets up early in the NOR
ning--to feed and milk his COWS.
He stays up late at night--to
feed and milk his cows. And
he has to worry about--his
herd, his buildings, his produc-
tion records, the importance of
milk to the people of the country,
the price of milk, price
supports, government programs
and production control.
The dairy industry is one of
the most important farm enter
prises. Sales of milk bring
dairymen nearly five billion
dollars a year. Milk and foods
containing milk are important
to good health. Expenditures
for dairy products take large
chunk of the family food dollar.
Because of its unusual nature,
milk is probably the worlds
most regulated farm product.
Government regulations have
done a lot for, and to dairymen.
Many of the problems blamed
on Government we're caused by
the dairymen themselves. Years
ago, dairymen prevailed upon
federal and state governments
to eliminate competition. They
we're able to get laws restric-
ting the manufacture and sale
of margarine. AS result, they
prospered, as nearly half of
their output was needed for
making butter.
After World War II, political
tides turned against dairy farm
ers. Most federal and state
restrictions on margarine we're
repealed. Dairymen lost two
thirds of their butter market.
AS butter sales declined, more
milk was left to be used as
fluid milkand for makingcheese,
ice cream and other dairy pro-
ducts.
Also after World War II, the
price supports which began in
the 30's we're resumed and eX-
panded. In the past nine years,
this program has cost over
3.4 billion dollars. Believe il

How does your

Burma
Father Hugh O'Rourke of
Providence, RI, never con-

he has learned a great deal
about the soil since he came
to Burma two years ago. In a
recent letter, the Columbian
missionary made the follow
ing agricultural observations,
"The Kachins here are
very intelligent farmers. At
the edges of their rice fields,
they plant millet because
they know the birds love it
and when they have millet
they will not touch the rice.
Through the fields they
plant sesame. an Indian
herb, because the insects will
not attack the rice if there
is enough sesame to satisfy
them. Smart, no?"

the Bishops stated.
1.-THE disciple of Christ

Dor implies a serious re-

the other two magistrates
offered a second, the motion
died.
At the start of the session,
petitions signed by 2,162
Boone County residents and
SO Florence, KY, business
men were presented to the
court, requesting that funds
be appropriated.
In the debate which follow
ed, Magistrate Joseph Hogan
emphasized that "the fiscal
court is not in the trans
~portation business | say
the children going to pa
rochial schools should ride
the buses. But it is the school
boards business to trans
port the children"
THE COURT, which sets
financial policy for the coun-
ty, has said in the past it
cannot meet the cost of trans
porting the parochial school
pupils.
The county Board of Edu-
cation claims that it costs
S17.23 to transport each
parochial school pupil. This
would mean a fiscal court
appropriation of about
$4,000 which the court says
it doesn't have.

schools in the county are

THE BISHOPS warned
against the errors of COM
munism and the abuses of
capitalism. They singled out
unjust distribution of land
and income, poor housing,
unemployment, low wages
inadequate educational OPP
portunities, bad diet and
governmental inefficiency as
the major problems to be
solved.
Spelling out the problems
that need to be solved, the
Bishops noted that "a large
part of our people live in the
country, oppressed by misery
and intolerable conditions
because a minority of owners
possess the best farm land"
-Four per cent of Chileans
own II per cent of the
nations arabic land.
THE BISHOPS added that
a third of the people do not
have proper dwellings in
which family virtues can be
normally devel oped and
pointed to the existence Of
o~vercrowding in slums.
1t is estimated that Chile,
with a population of $780,
600, has a deficit of 400, 900
dwellings.
Condemning widesp r d
unemployment, the Bishops
said that it is impossible to
ask the unemployed to de-
fend a society which denies
them justice.
Inc Bishops also pointed
out that "one-tenth of the
population of Chile receives
half of the national income,
while the remaining nine
tenths must subsist on the
other half"
This means, the pastoral
said, that "a large part of the
working class is not receiving
a wage in accord with the
norms of social justice" The
poor Chilean, it continued,
Lives in this deplorable sit
uation with bitterness and
disillusion, which he does
not express but which are
increasing"

leaves school after the first
year and another leaves it
before finishing his primary
education Thus a large
number remain below the
threshold of education and of

which it signifies"
