The Medical Roundup by Emeritus Consultant la Msdleine, Mayo Clinic Emarltn Professor of Medtclna. Mayo Foundation A President's Haallh President Eisenhower is great ly to be commended for his good sense in suggesting that some thing be done to arrange defin itely for the taking over of a president's du ties if his pow ers should fail. He naturally is most concern ed with the le galistic prob lems. As a phy sician, I am most concerned with the med- Dr Aivarer ical ones, and particularly with the one that is seldom thought of the problem of the loss of good judgment that can come during the night with a small, unrecognized stroke. Every Congressman should . now be re-reading the memoirs of Ike Hoover, formerly head usher in the White House. They were published years ago in the Saturday Evening Post. There, Hoover told of a morning when, in Paris, President Wilson woke somewhat indisposed. The doc tors thought he probably had a little cold. But Hoover soon saw that his Chief was a changed and a very different man. Formerly, good-hearted, kind to his staff, and easy to deal with, now he was irritable, niggardly, hard to deal with, and suspicious. Quite- correctly, Hoover decided that his Chief must have suffered a serious injury to his brain. A few months later, Wilson had anoth er slight "collapse" while, mak rig a speech, and later, he had n easily recognized stroke. (&an Chang Character The terrible thing about a fettle stroke that can come si lently in the night is that, with ftat crippling a muscle or inter fering with speech, it can take 4vay a man's good judgment, nd change his character. For Instance, I remember an able (Ranker who, after a little stroke, Hpst all of his good business Judgment, and began to make gLaUy investments. The most dan ' gerous feature of this very com ion disease of aging men is that & often the victim does not re alize that he has failed intellec- The best story I know to show gWs is that of Gil Bias, who as n attractive lad, was practically wdopted by the great Bishop of Seledo in Spain. The bishop ojsked of Gil Bias only one thing wad that was to tell him if ever, ,gfter a little stroke, he should art boring his congregation &ith stupid sermons. One day fee got a stroke, and later, when preached again, he asked Gil aow he had done. He really had gene very badly but Gil, tact Ailly, said, "It was a wonder aWly fine sermon; one of the best i ever heard. But it wasn't quite as good as you used to preach." With this, the bishop went into a rage and threw Gil out in the street with instructions never to come back! Study by Physicians I doubt if we, in America, will ever have any protection, from this sort of thing until some definite and workable provision is made for frequently assessing a president's mental health. For example, in the case of President Wilson, there should have been some way in which the men close to him, who knew that he was a changed man, could have brought in perhaps a group of eminent physicians to report to Congress on his mental as well as his physical health. Obviously, in judging of the man's mental health, the physicians would have to rely mainly on the im pressions of the men about him who could know of any change in his temperament, character, judgment and ability. C . T tn... I oume prupic may ds&, jdui j why can't the President's physi i cian warn Congress of any men tal ill health he has observed? I don't see how he can, so long as the president is his patient, much as any other man might be his patient. Even if the prsident's physician were hired by Con gress and made responsible to Congress rather than to the pres ident, it would be a most embar rassing and unpleasant thing for the physician to do to say that, in his opinion, his patient was not mentally fit for his duties. Need Not Be Disastrous In the past, our Presidents have refused to let the public know anything about their in capacities. President Eisenhower ! has dealt with the nation frankly ana nonesuy. I hope now he can induce congress to devise some arrangement so that, if in the fu ture, a president is ever incap acitated mentally, the vice-president can take over his duties. I say mentally because physical incapacity can easily be seen, and it need not be disastrous to the country. Perhaps it would help to have a board of, let us say, six physi cians, established. This board could be made up automatically of the professors of medicine or psychiatry of six of our great medical schools. These men would ,have to meet with the President and his physician every four months, and then re port to Congress. If they should report that, in their opinion, the President was in no condition to carry on with his work, Con gress should immediately ask the vie. president to take over. By having a board compelled by law to check the President's health every few months, we would get around the great ob jection of having to wait for some daring person to insist that an axamination be made. Dr. Alvarez hones his readers will understand that it would be impossible for him to answer requests for information or to attempt to diagnose by mail.

Bob Foster of the Jaycees de scribed the plans for construc tion of a large combination recreation-shelter-mess hall build ing on the Jaycee campsite, lo cated where the Salvation Army summer camp formerly was situ ated. The Jaycees plan to make it available to a wide variety of youth groups for summer camping projects. The building, to cost a esti mated $10,000 or more initially, will be of Timberib construction, and the Jaycees have enlisted the cooperation of a number of groups and individuals in the project. Money-raising projects ar being planned, Foster re ported. Information Posters The chamber board also heard of plans for visitors information posters, with changable inserts giving current information, to be placed in service stations, mo tels and restaurants this summer. The project is being done by the- chamber's tourist committee under the chairmanship of Mrs. Bert Pree, in cooperation with the Oil Industry Information committee. The board discussed several pieces of legislation now being considered in Salem, and unani mously endorsed the principles of House Bill 737, which would eliminate the position of county judge in any county where the judge no longer performed judi cial duties, and would replace him with a third commissioner. The bill would apply to Jack son and several other of the larger counties of the state. The name "county court" also would be eliminated, being replaced by "board of county commission ers," which would elect their own presiding officer from the three commissioners. Congressmen Praise Racket Curb Request Washington (U.R) Both Democratic and GOP congress men today praised President Ei senhower's call for legislation to curb labor racketeering. Senate and House committees planned prompt hearings. However, several congressmen called for broader legislation than the President proposed Thursday after meeting with Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell at the vacation White House in Augusta, Ga. The President said Congress should enact legislation to elim inate the "abomination" of labor racketeering. He said union wel fare and pension funds should be brought under control. Firemen Overcome by Missile Exhaust Fumes I Patrick Air Force Base, Fla. (U.R) Thirteen firefighters were ! overcome by the fumes from a secret missile's exhaust blast but ! the six who were admitted to a hospital were reported in satis I factory condition today, j Seven others were treated and released Thursday after the mis hap at this secret guided missile center.

Dulles Declares Following War Road Moscow (U.R) Leading Sov iet circles today accused U.S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles of following "the road of adventure and war." The charge was included in a long denunciation of Dulles' re cent speech to American news paper editors. The official Soviet News Agency Tass distributed the statement, one of the most violent Soviet attacks against a U.S. secretary of state since Josef Stalin died. The commentary dropped the recent Soviet line that nuclear war might bring universal ex tinction. It asserted that the forces of Communism would win and capitalism would go under if war should come. "There are two roads in for eign policy, the road- of realism and peace and the road of ad venture and war," the statement said. "Mr. Dulles evidently keeps to the second road." It called the Dulles address "incendiary speech" of a "frank ly aggressive character." MAKINGS OF MURDER Bari, Italy -4U.R) Police had all the makings for a good mur der mystery today. They found a box containing part of a hu man skeleton, a pre-1946 Italian flag with the royal coat-of-arms, a newspaper clipping dated Jan. 12, 1948 and two bedsheets be longing to the Italian army. 2-INSTRUCTION MUSIC instruction.
