Boss of Europe's Newest Spy NetworkVeteranof Long Standing Bonn. Germany '11 p Th boss of Europe's newest spy net work carries a heavy revolver, flanks himself with armed body guards and has awarning on his ate, "Dangerous Dog." He is a man of many faces, but only one photograph of him ex ists and that is at least 15 yeaiS old. He went Into business official ly only this week, but at 55 he is an old hand at spying on the Rusns. He has an estimat ed 4,000 agentP operating from East Germany to Red China. Lt. Gen. Reinhard Gustav Geh len became "president of the Federal Intelligence Service" throueg a decree signed by West German President Theodor Heuss. His deputy, whose iden tity is a secret like those of all others in the Gehlen organiza tion, was called "vice president." The service's official published budget is only $1.2 million an nually and its staff on paper is 1.181 men. Gehlen's salary is $6,800 a year. But the secret funds, for which Gehlen is accountable only to. Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, are believed four times the list ed amount. Few Germans could recognize Gehlen, but those in the know say he is slender, of medium height, with sparse fair hair, a high forehead, thin, tight lips, deep-set eyes and cu?iously pro truding ears. Sometimes he sports a small mustache, sometimes he is clean-shaven. He has been variously described as looking like a history professor, a travel ing salesman and a retired army man which is what he is. His career can be dug out of the old Wehrmacht files. He was born at Erfurt, now in the Soviet zone, son of a regular aiQny officer. He entered the army in 1920 as an artillery lieutenant. By 1942 he was in command of an artillery regi ment on the Russian front. That year he became chief of the "Foreign Armies East" section of the Supreme command, and .is talents as a spy-master blos somed and bloomed. Coordinating military intelli gence about the Red armies, he developed a network o sprfes, mostly renegade Russian prison ers and deserters reaching far into the Soviet hinterland. In May, 1945, the advancing American army captured Gehlen and his staff in Bavaria. With him he had complete files on his work behind the Russian lines, although it was months before a U.S. counter-intelligence interro gator spotted the haul and ship ped it and Gehlen to the Penta gon, o In 1946 the Americans sent Gehlen back to Germany with an agreement to build an Ameri can-sponsored spy network to keep an eye on the Russians.

X-rays showed a big ulcer in his stomach. But he had no pain. Why? Turning to him, I asked, "Can a dentist hurt you?" And he said, "Not a bit; I re cently had six"teeth pulled and I wouldn't take any anesthetic; I did not need it." His ulcer could not hurt him; it could only make him retch. Dr. Alvarez hopes his readers will understand that it would bo impossible for him to answer requests for information or to attempt to diagnose by mail.

I am 16 years old and am considered pretty ma ture for my age, so I feel I have a right to have a say in our fam ily problems. The problem is rny grand mother, who recently came to live with us. She used to have her own apartment, but she has not been well, so my mother made her come to live with us Since she has come, we have all been miserable. Grandma fusses at all of us, complaining about this and that. My brothers are too wild and fresh and I go out too much. She even picks at my mother all the time, telling her how to cook or to stop talk ing so much on the telephone. My aunt is very rich and has a big home and I don't see why Grandma can't go to live with her. She wouldn't interfere with other people so much there. I must share my room with Grand ma, so it's bardest on me. Mrs. L. D. I didn't want to have my mother stay with us and 1 avoided it until the last possible moment. It's true that she is a very difficult person to live with. She has always been self-centered and critical of ev eryone around her. She is now worse than ever. We are cramp ed in our apartment and I feel terrible that Cora car't have her own room, but there is nothing to be done about it. It s true that my sister is in a better position to care for my mother from a material point of view, but the two of them don't get along at all. My sister has contributed generously to my mother's support, but it is out of the question for my mother to live with her. Cora has been making things twice as difficult byalking back to my mother and provoking quarrels. She is old enough to know better. We must put up and shut up. J& MAR 22 VT 3- 6-19 7A 29-37 TAUIUS A?

D. shoutt not blame Cora for making things "difficult." The girl is simply reflecting her mother's attitude. Mrs. L. D. has not ac cepted her mother in. her home in any more than the physical sense and, as a result, has cre ated a situation that is close to unbearable for herself and the family. If Mrs. L. Lt feels it is best for her mother to make her home with her, she must make the mental adjustment required to take this woman in. If she has love and a sense of duty toward her mother and she must have these if she takes her in at all she should keep this love and sense of duty uppermost in her mindand try to transmit both to her husband and children. If the children realize that Grandma is loved and wanted, despite her faults, they will be more willing to accept her. If Grandma feels loved and wanted and not merely "put up" with, she too is likely to become hap pier and more agreeable. Once Mrs. L. D. accepts the fact that there are positive rea? sons why she wants her mother to be with her, she will make a more active effort to adjust the entire family life to the situa tion. Since L. D.'s sister has been generous in her financial help, perhaps she can continue this and the family can take a larger apartment so that both Cora and her grandmother can have their own rooms. This would make a big difference in everyone's hap piness. Under no circumstances should Cora be permitted to show her grandmother any dis respect. (C) 1957. General Features Corp. Reed's Successor May Come From Lower Court Washington (U.R) President Eisenhower probably will choose a successor to retiigng Supreme Court Justice Stanley S. Reed from among judges on lower federal courts, administration sources said today. There was some speculation that Attorney General Herbert Brownell Jr. might be in line to replace Reed, who announced his retirement Thursday after 19 years on the high court. But the post seemed more likely to go to a member of a lower court, probably a U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The Hypersensiliye Person Every so often I see a woman who makes an awful fuss abot some stiffness in her shoulder or her hand. She says the pain is more than she can bear, and yet my examina tion shows that all she has is a bit of fibrositis such as I have Aivarer walked around with cheerfully for most of my life. Although I am hypersensi tive, my fibrositis rarely both ers me enough so that I must taken even a tablet of aspirin. Then, why is my poor patient so knocked out by her pain? Why is she so frightened by it? Why has she taken to her bed because of it? Perhaps her doctor, who is so sensitive himself that he cannot imagine how a person can be terribly hypersensitive, on be ing called to her house, made light of the matter, and thereby offended her. Perhaps he left with the impression that he thought she was imagining her pain, and making too much of a fuss. When I saw her, I said, "No; I am sure this pain is rot imaginary." I had known her for years as a fine sensible wom an. Because of her great hyper sensitiveness, I would expect her to suffer much more than I do from the same stimulus. Her dentist may tell me that she goes to pieces nervously at the first touch of his drill; I can stand it for a short while; and one of my friends who is quite insensi tive goes to sleep in his dentist's chair, no matter what is done to him! Many women are terriblv sen sitive to some of the stimuli that others of us humans do not feel. They cannot stand slight drafts, or a pencil squeaking on a slate, or the designs on certain wall papers, or bright lights, or cer tain smells, or Ravel's Bolero! Some can be disturbed by hear ing their heartbeats at night, or they cannot stand the ticking of their husband's watch on his dresser, or they can sense a storm coming 100 miles away, and can get from it a migrainous headache, a stomach-ache, or some pains in their joints. Sensitive to Heat, Cold Some are so sensitive to light that in the mornings they very j gradually adapt their eyes, first to a little electric light, and later to daylight. Others are very sen- j sitive to heat or cold. Many i hypersensitive women react j wrongly and violently to small ' doses of morphine or barbitu-; rates or codeine. Many have so sensitive a skin that it breaks out if they use a new cosmetic : or wear a fur collar. j Some extremely hypersensi tive persons react keenly to the feelings of the people about them. They know instantly j whether a person is friendly or j hostile. Even when on the sur-! face, the person is courteous ' and pleasant, these people sense ' the hostility within, and are . distressed by it. Many of the gifted women who make their living reading ; palms are hypersensitives who j can sense the many things that j most of us are not conscious of in those about us. People ask me what a hyper sensitive woman can do to "help herself. Obviously, it can help her greatly to know what her trouble is, and why she is so often feeling much pain and dis tress. Often she feels pain when another person would feel only fatigue or an ache. If she knows these things she will not be so alarmed when she feegs uncom fortable. Just as there are hypersensi tive persons, so also there are are insensitive ones, In the old lluve nn tVlo Uai-hnmr fri jr. uuj.? w.. iiiv uaiuaij uuaai ill oan rrancisco mere was a man who, on discovering that he could never feel pain, turned this to good account. He would i go into a saloon and, for a few j beers, he would let anyone hit him on the jaw as hard as he wished! May Not Notice Disease o The trouble with being in sensitive is that if a serious dis ease comes, it may not be no ticca until it is too late. For instance, I remember a very insensitive man I once saw who looked very ill and said he "felt rotten." He had fever and a high "white blood count," but he had no pain in his abdomen. Fortunately, I got a hunch that he could not feel disease if he had it, and because he was so sick I had his abdomen quickly explored. As I feared, the sur geon found a burst appendix, j iviany insensitive persons wiui a slowly-growing cancer of the stomach never feel anything un til the tumor has grown out into I their nerves. Then it is too late ; to remove it. j One of my doctor friends who j was so insensitive that he would have little tumors burned off his skin without asking for any anesthesia never felt pain any where until he was 75. Then, one day, he got a pain in his abdomen. He was so sure that in his particular case this must be a terrible danger signal that immediately he had his stomach x-rayed, and there was a big cancer of the stomach which must have been growing silently for several years. It was too far gone to be removed -entirely. Another man complained to me only of spells of violent retch- Savings Deposited by the 10th month 1st earn from the of the month at . .
