Churchill Observes 82nd Bi'rirhd

It seems strange that his elo

House of Commons in months,

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

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.
