SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL Twt Explanations Advanced Medical Patients May Need Assistance After Illness tuf insteed, he lielked. The question of how to help patients "after medical problems are cured was suggested for consideration-recently by a physi cian working, with the Mental Health committee's subcommit tee studying family problems." The doctor cited, as an example a 5f)-year-old man who injured his back" in a fall. When attend ing physicians feH he was ready to, .return to worx, the man kepi complaining of back pains, yet spent weekends hunting without .back strain. He did not-find work, that winter, "and his wife complained of his constant presence espe cially because he did nof.hel'p around the home and was crit ical and suspicious of her cof fee breaks with a neighbor. In the spring, when he took a job, he chose a heavy-lifting job rather than one suitable to his physical abilities. He was asain soon off work' because of back pains, which doctors be lieved he was using for, a way out of working. Ambitious Man Those who knew the man were puzzled because he had ben an ambitious hard-working man. 3 Behind the problem was an opn conflict with his wife over c. ntrol of the;, home. Since the ' ,vo children were grown and aay from, home, he did not feel he had to support his wife. His wife wanted help in working out a solution, and he appeared to be unhappy in hi new behavior. Since a ' crowded doctor's of fice. does' -not provide the relax ed situation for discussing fam ily problems, a trained- counselor- to understand the undercur rent feelings in the couples' per sonalities was needed. The. par ticular problem did not fall with in 'any of he existing agencies' services.- " A community family- service agency could- have been a re source to which the family could have looked for relief of the problem. Musicians Complain Of Cabaret Taxes Washington kU.PJ The Amer ican Federation of Musicians complained to Congress today that "the average wage-earner no longer can afford" to go nightclubbing because of the 20 per cent cabaret tax added to his bill. It denounced the tax as a "Frankenstein monster" and and blamed it for shutting down hundreds of nightclubs and res taurants and forcing tens of thousands of persons out of work. The union's plea for repeal of the tax was voiced by bandlead er Meyer Davis in testimony pre pared for a House Ways and Means Subcommittee consider ing changes in excise taxes. The subcommittee earlier this year tentatively agreed behind closed doors to recommend that the tax be scaled down to 10 per cent. But it later backtracked and decided to recommend fur ther study of the issue. Patterson Guest of Traffic Association R. A. Patterson, Portland, manager of the Oregon-Washington-California Pear bureau, was guest of the Rogue River Valley Traffic association this week. Patterson discussed the indus try sponsored market promotion done on behalf of the three state pear producing area. He said the overall promotion is sparked b; a three point pro gram of pear ripening education among handlers, developing of trade enthusiasm .and stimulat ing consumer information. He noted the pear bureau is unique in the fruit and produce Friday. November 30, 1 958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE cKay, Idle for First Time in 50 Years Eyes Leisurely Trip Salem (U.R) Douglas Mc Kay, defeated this month in his bid for the United States senate, returns in December to Wash ington. But he will be there only long enough to close up his Washington apartment, after which he will return to Oregon. McKay has set up a temporary office on the fourth floor of the Oregon building here where he and his secretary, Peg Phillips, are cleaning up post-election de tails. No Business- No Job "I have no business and no job," McKay said. "It's the first time in 50 years I haven't been working." However, the man who only lost one election said he wasn't too worried about the future. Al though he turned over his Salem auto business to his sons-in-law several years ago, he still owns the building. McKay said his future plans include a leisurely two-month trip through the South and he might even get down to Pasa dena to watch his alma mater, trade in that the program is sup ported entirely by the industry and directed by volunteer in dustry committees which work in conjunction with trained marketing and merchandising personnel. Caldwell, Ida. U.R) An On tario, Ore., woman, Mrs. George Foster, was killed here Wednes day when the car she was driv ing collided with a gravel truck. Oregon State, play in the Rose Bowl. Recalling the hot rivalry of his campaign with Sen. Wayne Morse, McKay said he had the best Republican organization he'd ever seen in the state of Oregon. "But it wasn't good enough," he added. Labor Beaf Him McKay figured that the pow erful political organization of state labor was what finally de feated him. The .job of governor, which McKay held twice, is still his favorite and he- expects the Democrats will have some prob lems with it. "In that job, you're the boss," he recalled.
