"And acceptable to drug
houses because it provides a
demand for drugs that would
not otherwise be demanded.
However, continued Dr
Richard Asher, "speed and
complexity," are not the same
as "stress and strain."
An Old Problem
"Cavemen probably suffer
ed as much strain over the
problem of choosing the right
cave as business men suffer
today over choosing the right
stocks," he said in lecturing
a scientific audience in Lon
don. ,
Tension, to him, is a
vague word." But if there
has been any increase in "ten
sion" due to modern living
it "is more apparent than real.
Under different names, it has
troubled men for centuries.'
The difference now is that
publicity has made it "respec
table."
His refernce was to the
tranquilizing drugs. "If there
is any real increase in tension
it may well be the result of
tranquilizers because their
withdrawal encourages the
symptoms to develop," he
said.
Talk About Troubles
Tranquility can also be pro
duced by massage, by heat,
by "appropriate sights and
sounds." There are many
means of producing it, but it
is "more logical to quieten a
mind directly than by stupe
fying its physical casing."
The technique for that is
psychotherapy. He said he

had applied it to a young
man and had been thanked
for it by the young; man's fa
ther in these words: "I think
it's done him a lot of good
being able to tell aill his trou
bles to someone. When I was
his age, I used to tell all my
troubles to a larj;e rubber
duck, and it seemed a great
help. I suppose you're much
the same sort of thing."
This, said 'the eminent doc
tor, had made him feel "ra
ther small"; it wan "humb
ling" but it also was "en
lightening." Tranquilizing psy
chotherapy is not applied sim
ply by listening. "The doctor,
however effective a rubber
duck he may be, has to emit
arl occasional quack."
Necessary At Times
Like tranquilizing, stimula
tion can be achievd by a
number of means drugs,
cold baths, and such psycholo
gical things as music and con
versation. But "one man's
sedative, and like tranquiliz
ing drugs, stimulating" drugs
"should be used only to tide
a patient through a critical
phase, not as a permanent re
quirement like insulin' for a
diabetic."
"He granted that "stirriulants
are necessary to savorr the
humdrum and to enliven the
drab. But they must ba used
sparingly. Over - stimulated
senses are less perceptive."
Turkish Coffee Is
Becoming Legend
Because of
By MERYEM ABIGADOL
Istanbul, Turkey (UPI)
In the bazaars and casbahs of
the east, Turkish coffee is a
legend.
Alas, it may soon be only a
fable. Turkey is running out
of coffee.
This is quite a blow, since
the day used to begin with a
cup of sweet, foaming, Turk
ish coffee for the merchants
crowding the bazaars of Is
tanbul.
Lqvingly prepared and with
the proper quantity of sugar
added, it chased the clouds
away and cleared their mimjls
for the day's complicated
transactions.
But now it appears they
will have to conduct their
business without sipping their
favorite brew because coffee
does not grow in Turkey.
Must Be Imported
The 8,400 tons of coffee con
sumed by the Turks each year
all had to be imported, mostly
from Brazil. The Turks, very
exacting when it comes to
their favorite beverage, found
that African coffee did not
contain enough caffeine. The

Ordnance Experts
Resume Search
Middletown, N. J.-(UPI)
Thirty ordnance experts to
day resumed searching the
wreckage from , last Thurs
day's Nike-Ajax missiles ex
plosion that killed six soldiers
and four civilians.
An Army spokesman Sun
day denied reports that the
"triggering mechanism" of
one of the missiles had been
found. ,
A public information cap
tain at Ft. Wadsworth said,
"we have no confirmation of
that (finding the mechanism).
And we haven't heard from
the site as -to whether they
have found anything else in
the way of explosives or trig
gering mechanisms."
The statement was issued to
squelch unconfirmed reports
that an important fragment
had been found which would
provide an insight into the
causes of the blast.
Man Perishes When
He Calls Firemen
Portland (UPI) A man
perished .early Sunday in his
home here while calling the
fire department to say that his
house was on fire. John J.
Atkins, 73, was found dead
at the kitchen table amid
charred ruins.
A telephone with the instru
ment removed from the cradle
was-in front of Atkins on the
table. The cord was wrapped
around ' one wrist. Atkins had
been alone in the house.
Deputy Multnomah county
coroner Paul Haslinger said
death ' could haVe resulted
either from asphyxiation or a
severe burn.
The fire which caused j
S5.500 damage resulted from j
smoker's carelessness, firemen j
said.
"Madame Butterfly," the
Pucini opera about the Jap
anese girl who fell in love
with an American naval of

Milan in 1904.
Negotiations End
With No Settlement
Seattle (UPI) Negotia
tions between striking Team
sters Local 174 and the North
west Produce Association and
Distributors' Association end
ed Saturday with no settle
ment of the labor dispute in
sight. -
Federal mediator James
MacPherson said the week
end meeting was unsuccessful
and no further sessions were
scheduled.
.Local 174 went out on
strike last Monday, shortly
after the Warehouse Drivers
and Helpers Union had settled
its strike with the produce
association.
Eugene Man's Plane
Crashes on Trip
Reedsport, Ore. (UPI) A
private airplane advertising
Salmon Harbor Fleet Days at
nearby Winchester Bay was
wrecked about 12 miles north
of Susanville, Calif., Satur
day, word received here said
No one was hurt. The Pilot
was Warren Schisler, Eugene
city councilman. Passengers
were Harry Ludwig, Reeds
port, manager of the Salmon
Harbor sports fishing facility;
Howard Lichty, Reedsport,
and Ray Brandow, Winches
ter Bay.
The Fleet Days observance
will be held June 20-22.
Expense
ered the best-suited for foam
ing Turkish coffee, was too
expensive. .
But with Brazil demanding
payment in cash for its coffee
and the Turks needing scarce
foreign exchange to purchase
capital goods and other essen
tials for .the industrialization
and modernization programs
of the country, it became in
creasingly more difficult to
obtain import licenses.
Many true coffee addicts
resorted to buying their cof
fee on the black market at
prices ranging from $8 to $11
a pound.
Switch to Tea
The government soon
stepped in to stop the smug
gling.
Now that all further im
ports have been suspended,
some Turks are switching
from coffee to tea, which is
grown in Turkey. Others re
sort to a synthetic, coffee-like
product they have named
"pleasure."
This is not the first time
coffee imports have been
banned in Turkey.
In the early 17th century, a
coffee shop owner in Istanbul
accidentally started a fire
which destroyed one-fifth of
the city.
The sultan, Mur at the
Fourth, thereupon ordered all
coffee houses the meeting
places of the literary world
to be closed. He also destroyed
and banned all further im-'
ports of coffee.
Shop Owners Taxed
The ban had to be lifted
after a short while because
coffee, once the; drink of a
select few, had already be
come the favorite drinks of
all Turks. And it was a
source of considerable in
come for the government
which collected two gold coins
daily in taxes from coffee
shop owners.
Remembering what hap
pened then, the descendants
of the men who coined the
phrase, "A cup of coffee is not
forgotten for 40 years," are
now hoping their government
will not permit the taste of
coffee to become a mere mem
ory for 40 years.

Top Steelmen Believe Steel Price
Will Rise Because of Wage Boost
Cleveland, Ohio (UPI)

steel prices will go up as a re

Market Men Are
Taking Inventory
Of Performance
New York (UPI) With
only a few days left in May,
market men are taking inven
tory of the list's performance
and . possibilities.
The market is down a lit
tle more than
. eight per cent
in the indus
trial average
and down
about 21 per
cent" in the
rails from the
e v e 1 s of a
year ago. ,
Last year
Elmer Walzer the market
was in a rise that carried
through to July 12 and the
industrial average all but set
a record high missed it by
28-100th point.
The market has been in a
rise so far this month a
month when, past history
shows the prospect' of a gain
or loss for the list , is about a
draw.
Gains Equal Losses
The same holds true for the
month of June. In the past
gains and losses for that
month have been about even
ly divided.
Last year the industrial
average reached 520.77 on
July 12. It turned down and
by Oct. 22 the average had
lost just about exactly 100
points from its high.
This year the rise set in
after Feb. 25 for the indus
trials. Rails and utilities set
their 1958 lows on Jan. 2, the
first trading day of the year.
This year the business sta
tistics are far less favorable
for the rise to continue as it
did in 1957, market experts
assert.
Some of them are getting
bearish. Many continue bull
ish, s
. There are a lot of bears
among the trading element
who are betting high stakes
there will be a big decline in
the not distant future. .
Short Interest High
The short interest is the
second highest on record
To Wall Street, the short
interest represents two things
a vote of a lack of confi
dence by a lot of people for
one thing, and secondly, the
short position represents just
that much potential buying
when sometime in the future
.the shorts decide to cover
their commitments.
These bears have great for
titude, say the market men.
They just haven't been fright
ened by rising prices except
in a few instances.
Those who have the idea
that a big short interest pre
cludes a decline of broad pro
portions are hit by the sta
tistic showing that the list
has been known to decline as
much as 50- per cent in the
face of the highest recorded
number of short positions.

the price boost to be Sll a
ton "because that's what the
cost increase will be."
According to the magazine,
Ri H. Gray, president of
Armco Steel Corp., thinks the
price hike is "inevitable,"
while Avery C. Adams, presi
dent of Jones and Laughlin
Steel Corp., believes the hike
is justified. Arthur B. Homer,
Bethlehem Steel Corp. presi
dent, says, "We'd just have to
raise prices if wages increase."
The metalworking weekly
said it's believed that Detroit's
big three will close their
plants from one to three
months earlier than usual in
order to prepare for produc
tion of 1959 models.
Economy Recovering
It said general Motors
probably will start closing its
assembly plants in July;
Chrysler will go dawn in late
July or early August, and
Ford will follow in Septem
ber. The magazine predicted the
United Auto Workers union
will be notified not to strike
even if present contracts are
allowed to expire.
According to the magazine,
the industrial recovery is
gaining momentum. For the
first time in 41 weeks with
the exception of the post
Christmas period every seg
ment of the magazine's indus-'
trial production index in
creased from the previous
week's reading.
Steel Output Rising
Steel said the combined ef
fect of improvement in steel
output, electric power output,
freight carloadings, and auto
assemblies raised the index
three points to a preliminary
125 4or the week ended May
17. The index is based on a
figure of 100 for 1947-49.
The magazine said it was
the third consecutive rise and
marked the highest level in
seven weeks. A year ago, the
index stood at 152.
The magazine said' steel
output rose for the fourth
consecutive week. The oper
ating rate last week jumped
three points to 54.5 per cent
of capacity the highest level
of production since March 2.
The output was 1,470000 net
tons of steel for ingots and
castings. - ,
According to the magazine,
the higher rate of production
is the result of gains in de
mand for construction prod
uces and scattered improve
ments in miscellaneous buy
ing. It said observers also
point out that inventories
have been trimmed from 19
million tons on Jan. 1 to 13

million tons, a level at which
some replacement buying can
be expected.
Customers Hedging
It also said some customers
are hedging against a possible
price increase on July 1.
The magazine said that if
operations continue at the
present rate, May production
will reach six million tons
and the June output will top
May figures by two or three
per cent.
However, market analysts
are less optimistic about July
because of the predicted start
of the automakers shutdown,
slow consumption in other in
dustries due to vacations, and
the fact customers who
bought heavily in .June as a
hedge against higher prices
will be out of the market
during July. -
