Whittaker. ' High Fat Diet and Hardening of Arteries Debated by Medical Men Miracles today in the field of aviation will become common place tomorrow, G. H. Macom ber, district traffic and sales manager for United Air Lines told Medford Rotarians here Tu esday. Speaking at a Rotary lunch eon at the Jackson hotel, Macom ber discussed recent develop ments in flying which add speed, comfort and safety to modern commerical aviation. High among these developments is the new airborne radar which en ables pilots to see storms 150 miles away and see right through them at closer range. The new radar equipment is one of the developments of Unit ed Air' Lines' flying laboratory, Macomber said. , New techniques in instrument landing, pressuriz ed cabins, new flight recorders that log flights, and ignition an alyzers make flying today quick er and safer. Radio, which can be dialed to specific planes in flight, eliminate- confusion in ground to plane communications. Traces Progress The United Air Lines' official traced the progress of his com pany during the past three dec ades; from a small one-route line with six planes, of 90 miles per hour speed, and 10 employees, to the present air transport system carrying 30 million pe'ople in the past two years. Today, Macomber said, a per son can fly around the world in three and two-thirds days at a cost of only $1,350. Jet aircraft of tomorrow will raise the present commerical plane speed immediately to 570 miles per hour, enabling a per son to cross the continent in four hours. The new jet transports will fly from 32 to 40 thousand feet high and carry from 110 to 150 passengers. That, he said, is just a forerunner of even faster and bigger super-sonic atomic planes eventually to serve the public. Kenneth W. Cook, United Air Lines' manager here, introduced the speaker. Macomber, he said, had recently crossed the top of the world on a flight to Copen hagen and Stockholm, covering 15,500 miles within seven days. Canada is the third largest country in the world in area, ex ceeded only by the Soviet Un ion and China.

By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York W A scientific disagreement over whether high fat diets (which most Americans eat) speed hardening of the art eries and lead to heart attacks has been highlighted by Dr. An cel B. Keys of the University of Minnesota, an outstanding "pro" man, and Dr. Irvine H. Page of the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, who is on the "con" side. "The most important factor so far identified" which "influen ces" arteries-hardening is high fat eating, said Keys. This, he said, " had been prejty clearly shown in population studies and in experiments with laboratory animals. High fat diets keep the cholesterol content of the blood high and that hardens arteries. Multi-Faceted Disease But Page took the position Four Accidents Are Reported Monday Four minor traffic accidents were reported in Medford Mon day, according to city police. John Tjoelker, Rogue River, was cited for failure to yield the right of way Monday when the car he was operating was in volved in an accident with a car operated by Eva Ruth Sanford, 28 South Peach st., Medford, at Sixth st. and Oakdale ave., police said. Cars operated by Alf Bre- ! wold, 2646 Jacksonville high- i way, and Gerald Andrew ! Thompson, 129 South Sixth st., ! Medford, collided Monday at Sixth and Fir st., officers re- i ported. Brewold was cited for failure to yield the right of way, they said. An accident occured at Eighth and Holly sts. Monday involv ing cars operated by Vincent Ward Hammond, 131 Highland drive, Medford, ' and Richard James Swinney, 1478 Spring st., Medford, police said. Michael Fredrick Woolridge, 224 Oak Grove rd., Medford. was cited after the car he was operating was involved in an ac cident with a car operated by Phillip Vernon Rennick, 1246 Sunset ave., Medford, at Sixth and North Ivy sts., Monday, police reported. l--l"B::l,iii:i:s,IBr::;iB'1 i Get the Habit J that none of this had been satis factorily demonstrated. Arteries hardening is "a multi-faceted dis ease," he said, "and to iden, dietary fat as the only important influence is to over simplify the problem which is extremely complicated." For instance, long, lean pigs have lower blood chol esterol than short, thick-set pigs when both kinds eat the same diet. Keys leaned heavily on popu lation studies which have shown that peoples (such as Japanese and Neoplitan Italians) who have low fat diets show lower choles terol blood levels and suffer few er heart attacks than peoples (such as Americans and Finns) who have high fat diets. Page granted this "general sta tistical relation" in populations, but said "the relation for an in level.dividual is very poor." A man with a high Wood cholester ol level cannot be said to be more subject to arteries-hardening than -a man with a lower level, "as soon as the question is scaled down to individual per sons, the result becomes much less meaningful," he added. Page objected to mass surveys of what people eat on grounds that they're not accurate. "The amount of fat lost in cooking is unknown," he said. "One person eats Jus meat, fat and all. The next trims it all off carefully. The one may be on a very high fat diet while another right in i the same family has a low in take." Hard To Come By Keys granted that precise diet information for large numbers of people was exceedingly hard to come by, but science wasn't concerned with "small differen ces of one-two per cent in fat in take; we are comparing an av erage of over 40 per cent of cal ories as fat in the United States with less than 10 per cent in Japan or about 20 per cent in Italy." Keys felt that the American diet should have no more than 20 to 25 per cent of its calories in fat. This "would keep the cholesterol at a safe level in most people if animal fats con stitutes less than half the fats." Page said that people whose cal ories now are 45 to 50 per cent from fats, can reduce these cal ories to 25 to 30 per cent "com fortably." But "why?" he asked. It has not been shown convinc ingly that that would actually reduce the blood cholesterol lev el, he said. ' The whols question currently is one of the most disecussed among doctors.
