(International) Persons With Indigestion, Ulcers Should Learn Causes of Ailments By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York (W Since people today are "tense from hurry, traffic and competition," it is no wonder there is so much in digestion and so many ulcers, said the professor of medicine and his assistants. The important way to help all these people is to teach them what these ailments are all about, so that they can "run" their ulcers rather than letting the ulcers "run" them, continued the eminent authorities. Feeling Of Insecurity It's simple to see how our times generate indigestion and ulcers; just look around. These days a man "has a feeling of in security as he depends more on others, and he has a sense of frustration from not seeing a job completed with his own hands. "The individual with dyspep sia ar ulcer often has, in addi tion to outside pressures, an in ner conflict because of ambition or goals which are set too high for attainment, and he has a sense of frustration and failure Holmes Asks More Money for Schools Salem OP) Gov. Robert D. Holmes asked the Legislature Monday for another S5 million in basic school support funds to be financed largely through a 15-cent-a-bottle boost in state liquor prices. "We can get the extra funds, so seriously needed by our schools, and still keep Oregon in a favorable price position on liquor with neighboring states," the governor said. Legislation now in the Sen ate would boost the present S80 per child support rate to $95. Gov. Holmes in his inaugural address suggested an increase to $120. The addition requested Monday would raise it to $100 a child. Liquor commission reports in dicate that a 15 cent price boost per fifth would raise about $3 million, Gov. Holmes said. "While liquor funds are not earmarked and go directly into the general fund, I think this assurance of additional revenue should be sufficient basis for making the increase," he added Sugar-Sweet! when the perfectionistic stan dards cannot be met." It used to be different with people, when "the individual had a job requiring individual skill. He had some security of self-owned or small industry, and a sense of being useful and needed in community life." In those days there was less indi gestion and fewer ulcers.

Hundereds of U.S. servicemen were affected. Dr. Mariano Icasiano, Manila city health officer, said 31 per sons were known to have died in the city up until last night. Most were children. Dr. Icasiano said the epidemic was still on the rise and he ex pected no relief for another, two weeks. At the same time it was re ported that the epidemic had penetrated into the American military bases at Clark Field and Sangley Point where hun dreds were reported stricken. Post exchanges and commissar ies were closed and all public gatherings were outlawed at Sangley Point Naval Air Station. Medford Youth Wins Soap Sculpture Honor Keith Frazier, post office box 1585, Medford, has won hon orable mention and $25 for his entry in the 30th annual na tional competition for small sculptures in white soap. His entry was "Titanosaurus, a Prehistoric Animal." Eighty four prizes were divided among youthful contestants in 23 states, according to the National Soap Sculture committee. Osmon, were filling in medical men with the latest in the tech nical journal, "Post-graduate Medicine." Indigestion means many things to people who have it but actually it is one thing "disturbed physiology of the gas trointestinal tract." When that occurs repeatedly, the deplora ble situation must be examined thoroughly by the doctor to find out the precise cause or causes. That is very necessary, to rule out the possibility of cancer, of course, but also to provide a sound basis for treatment. In indigestion this study is likely to demonstrate "chronic anxiety state" and "aerophagia." Aero phagia iff the swallowing of air while eating. Must Understand Cause In case of duodenal ulcer, the study may well show: "Emotion al tension and dietary indiscre tions." "In most cases," said the scien tists, "if the patient understands the cause of his . symptoms and their relation- to emotional up sets, they are easier, for him to control. A sympathetic explana tion and an understanding atti tude on the part of the physi cian are important for long-term results in the treatment of dyspepsia."

Whizzing through three nations at 45 to 60 m.p.h. to maintain its average speed above 40, the Ram bler traveled nearly 2,000 miles at a cost of only W a mile for regular grade fuel.

Navy Segregation In Theaters Rapped Washington IW Sen. Hen ry M. Jackson (D-Wash.) appeal ed to Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson today to end the seg regation of enlisted men and officers and their families in Navy theaters. Jackson asked the Navy last month to end the practice of sav ing the best seats for officers and their families and relegat ing enlisted men and their de pendents to the back rows at the movies. He said it hurt morale, enlistements and recruiting. Navy Secretary Thomas S. Gates turned down his request May 4, saying "military eti quette . . . dictates segregated seating for officer and enlisted alike." Jackson said this should not apply to- purely social functions like the movies. He said the Army and Air Force have no such policies. He asked Wilson-to make the Utilities at Peak True Cash Value Salem HP) Tentative true cash values of railroads and oth er utilities assessed by the State Tax Commission have reached an all time high. Tax Commissioner Samuel B Siewart said this year's sum mary shows an increase of 102 million dollars over 1956, by far the largest increase on record. Tentative total value for 1957 is 860 million dollars double the value of 10 years ago and a 13.5 per cent increase over 1956. - Stewart said a large part of the increase is the result of nat ural gas coming to Oregon. He said pipelines in eastern Oregon and the Willamette valley add ed 19 million dollars to the tax rolls.' Navy conform to the other serv- icies and end "such archaic prac- ! tices."
