Hardening of the arteries (r.r teriosclerosis) is a chronic af fection of the blood vessels or arteries characterized by the thickening and hardening and loss of elasticity af the arterial walls. When a vessel is involved, Ihere ' is a change In the lumen or pas sageway, which in turn increases the difficulty of forcing the blood through the vessel, consequently making the heart labor, to a greater extent and increasing the blood pressure to a greater or lesser degree. . Hardening of the arteries is be lieved to be caused by several conditions, a general metabolic disturbance, chiefly by a faulty cholesterol metabolism. The con dition is apparently in the develop mental stage for many years bo fore there are any symptoms and is claimed to be due to indiscre tions in the diet. It is believed there are an excess of protlens taken into the system, which form a fatty substance called Cholester ol. This is deposited on the sur face of the arterial lining. Choles terol later forms a sort of fib rous tissue which, in turn causes a contraction of the vessels and consequently a narrowing of the passageway. The disease may be present for many- years before any symptoms manifest themselves. This is be cause the disease is so slow in developing. Headaches, d 1 1 1 y spells, sleeplessness, nervous Ir ritability, pounding of the heart, and shortness of the breath are all prominent symptoms when the di sease has fully developed. The blood pressure Is always raised, sometimes as high as 200 to 250. When this happens, there is dan Or. Sot., July 12, 1952 Si ' ' . ' ' ' i crninrcr , Pvt.

As we grow older, there is gen erally some deposit of Calcium in the blood vessel walls. A certain rise in blood pressure is as much an accompaniment of old age as wmte hair and diminished nuis cular activity. Consequently too much must not be layed to this involvement. Many persons with considerable rise in blood pressure live to a ripe old age, provided they rive a life in keeping with their ase There Is no drug as yet known that will change the conditions in the arterial walls. If the ores sure produces many symptoms, then usually a few days complete rest in be will bring down the pressure. Smoking is one of the habits that should he stopped or greatlv decreased when the first symp toms of hardening of the arteries are noted as tobacco is known to be a powerful constrictor of the blood vessels principally of the small capillaries, inhibiting the already impaired blood Supply to tha organs and tissues. Alcohol was once believed to be a great contributor to harden ing of the arteries but is now def initely . known that alcohol does does not cause these harden ing changes. , Diet is Important In the care of this disease. The diet should he simple and in obese Individuals, moderation in the amount of food is important.

Truckers Plan Meeting To Seek Vote Support (Continued from Page One) members of the state legislature. The viewpoints of the trucking industry relative to the ton-mile tax and other phases of trucking vehicles exceeded 60.000 pounds and 50 feet. "It ill behooves the plaintiffs to be complaining," Davis said, "when the County Court order has allowed them to do all that the state law has allowed. It 'the county order) grants every inch and every pound maximum allow ed in the state law." This brought the comment from the court that it seemed the "plaintiffs were cutting off their noses to spite their faces" in cir culating a referendum against the county's regulations. Dimick said more than 2,000 people, signers of the referendum petition, have decided they want iu voie on ine mauer ana me complaint filed against the coun ty is "a vehicle by which they can do that." He said he was not onnttamaA about whether the referencum was wise for truckers but was dealing with the fact that a refer endum Detition had been filed to place a "legislative" act before the people. He maintained that rmmtiec nro a Dnlitiral anhHiviinn nt thm ctat industry will be presented at the si-neuuira meeting oy notn Port land and local speakers. The Hiffhwflv Cnnneit cnenlrintr in behalf of the entire industry iranKiy expresses the willingness of the Industry to pay a fair and nronortionale shar nf hiahwau users taxes and fees to pay for nignway construction and main tenance costs.

These records disclose that dur ing 1950 the industry in Oregon paid 156 percent of highway main tenance funds expended by the highway commission for that year. The industry paid 98 per cent. In fees and taxes, of the 18 millions of dollars available to the highway commission during 1950. Private carriers in Oregon niH tit nACnant nt th. ' I I the Public Utilities Commission- ler for the year. I Authorities generally agree that . ine irucxing industry should pav ' about one-third of highway costs oi maintenance and construction for the use of these facilities. The Bureau of Public Roads report shows that in 1950 the Industry In Oregon paid nearly 40 percent of road use taxes collected in the state, well above the national av erage of 32 percent. Anyone Interested in Oregon's highway use tax problem is invit ed to attend the Wednesday eve ning meeting and ample time will be given over to fully explaining the viewpoints of the truckers and in answering 'questions relative to this perplexing problem. - .fcvAi fiji n left to right, are Bunyans R.
