Objectionable in any way.
The principal sent her home.
When I called UP to find out

actly what does this mean?
ANNOYED
It means that IL one girl
wears shorts to school the
other girls would follow. And
the shorts would probably
become shorter and tighter
until they'd be wearing short
shorts and possibly bikini
bathing suits. I don't blame
the principal.

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: What
is meant by the glands Of
internal secretion?" What are
they? What do they do? Is
there any cure when they fall
down on their Job? I'm q bit
confused.-Mrs. c.
THINK OF GLANDS Of
the body as part of a SYM
phony orchestra, and of the
pituitary gland as their
leader. Each has a job to
do; each must be willing to
work In concert with all the
others - otherwise there
comes disruption In the
body's music"
They are called glands of
internal secretion because
each secretes some kind of
hormone which enters the
blood stream and affects
every cell In the body. Some
in one way, others in an
other. Let's consider the most
important ones:
PANCREAS: When this
gland does not Secrete suf-
ficient inSulin, most people
know the result: Diabetes.
The patient loses weight In
spite of a voracious appetite,
complains Of weakness, voids
abnormally large amounts of
urine, is excessively thirsty,
and is prone to get infec-
tons and eye complications
However, when the pam
creas oversecretes. the blood
sugar becomes abnormally
low. The patient becomes
weak, confused and may go
into Inconsistencies follow
ing commissions. Sometimes a
tumor of the pancreas is the
cause; sometimes too much

don't know the cause of
chronic hypoglycemia dow

A new note Of pragmatism
Is creeping into Kennedy adj
ministration dealings with
military juntas of Latin Amer
lea.
Last year the United States
Government loudly censure6
military take-overs in the
hemisphere as contrary to the
spirit of reform in the new
Alliance for Progress. Today
that criticism is softly tenn
pered with gruding admission
that the new breed of juntaS
need not spawn the old-style
dictator on horseback.
Most striking evidence Of the
changed attitude lies on the
west coast of South America
in neighboring Peru and Ecua-
dor. In Peru a new civilian gov
eminent, constitutions
ally elected, has been in power
just over a month, after a year
of "caretaker" military govern
ment.
Next door In Ecuador, the re-
verse is true. A four-man junta
of military officers rules the
country after overthrowing and
exiting the constitutional-but
drunken-President in July.
Both Are Hailed
And today in Washington,
both the new civilian govern
ment and new military govern
ment are uniformly hailed for
their sudden dynamism in
pushing social and economic
reforms which are the heart
and soul of the Alliance for
Progress. Policy-makers con-
centrate less on the manner of
achieving power than on what
is done with that power once
it is achieved.

on carrying out the three basic
reforms called for in the

and administrative.

Guatemala, the one other La
tin American country where a
junta has taken power this
year. Under former Defense
Minister Enrique Peralta Azur-
dia, that government has per-
siStently refused to promise q
return to civilian democracy
and has been noticeably slow
/ in pushing reform promised
last March.
Little Aid Given
The Kennedy administration
has recognized the Peralta gov
eminent for what are said to
be special local conditions
operating in favor of the Com
muniSts. It was generally agreed
that elections In Guatemala
would open the door for a re-
turn to Communist control

had been presented to the gov
eminent and was about ready
to go the hemisphere expert
panel of Nine Wise Men" for
review. Tax reform is also
under serious study" And two
experts from the Colombian
Land Reform Institute have
been brought in to help put
the final touches on an agrar-
ian reform calculated to-
C h ange the face of feudal
Ecuador.
Last year we were having
trouble in these two countries
getting them to move on re-
forms, but this year they are
moving" Mr.. Moscoso said. And
in a slap at the recent vote
in the House of Representa-
tives to cut $3.50 million out
of the 5000 million aid request
for the Alliance for Progress, he
added: IF that aid cut is kept,
we will have a serious problem
in helping to finance these re-
form programs"
Asked about his enthusiasm
for a military junta which had
seized power in Ecuador, Mr..
Moscoso replied: 1.-THE military
government is a fact. Naturally
I would prefer a constitutional
democratically elected govern
ment. But it is fact that this
government is getting on with
reforms outlined under the
Charter of Punta del Este"
Striking Contrast
The contrast with the situa-
ton in July, 1862, when the
Peruvian military junta seized
power, is striking. President
Manuel Prado was temporarily
imprisoned, the results of ma
tional elections were voided
and Congress was closed. The
Kennedy administration acted
sternly and swiftly. Economic
and military aid to Peru was
suspended. and diplomatic re-
lations were near the breaking
point.
Although the troubled waters
eventually were smoothed over
when the junta held firm, the
military rulers of Peru never
really got anything more than
a formal handshake from the
United States Government. Mr..
MoscoSo estimates that 500
million in United States aid
credits already available to the
new Belaunde government are
there because of the slow-down
in Alliance for Progress prof.
ects during the year of PERU
Wan military government.
In addition. he said, he dis
cussed another $35 million in
new credits with President Be-
launde and his lieutenants dur
ing his stay in Peru.

the ArlaHdria section of the
city.
The statements. filed BY the

Armistea d L. Boothe, are a
prerequisite under State law to
any court action against the
city. A member of the firm,
William w. Koontz, said law
suits will definitely be filed
against the city unless it's set
tied first"
The statements claim the
loss occurred because the city
neglected to provide adequate
storm drainage in the area and
to construct effective bikes. Ac-
cording to city officials, 81
stores, 1874 apartments and Isl
homes in Arlandria were flood
ed and the damage loss totalled
$1,765,O 900. The Federal Gov

7-Story Site
In Annapolis
Is Approved

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. 10 (AP) ..
The Annapolis Zoning Board
of Appeals today approved con-
struction of a controversial
seven-Story office builing near
Maryland's 191-year-old State
House.
The contemporary structure
was strongly opposed by many
groups, including Historic An
napolis, Inc, which commended
it would do 'irreparable dam
age to the historic State
House"
The Zoning Board granted
an exception to coming laws
to permit the builders to ex-
tend the building to the edge
of the property line on Francis
street, just off State circle.
An appeal from the boards
ruling would have to go to the
Anne Arundel County Circuit
Court.
The board said it granted
the exception because there
are rear yards upon this prop
erty and adjacent properties
which do not conform to exist
ing regulations
"It is not the function of
this board to consider the
aesthetic or economic effects
should such a building be con-
Structed at this location" the
resolution granting the excep-
ton said.
Annapolis coming regulations
allow construction of buildings
to a height of 125 feet. How
ever, the board in granting the
exception set a limit of 125
feet, the height planned by the
builders, Mr.. and Mrs. Mitchell
Giblo,
