Science Said Making Progress
In Workings of Human Mind
' By DELOS SMITH
UPI Science Editor
New York (UPI) Sci
ence definitely i s making
progress with its most diffi
cult riddle, the enormously
complicated workings of the
human mind. The proof of
that is a newly devised tech
nique which keeps minds on
an even keel by anchoring
them to the stomach instead
of to the eyes.
This technique can pre
vent or cure "black spot de
lirium." It often seizes people
whose eyes are necessarily
kept bandaged after surgery
and it makes them act as
though they were crazy. Their
minds had been dependent
upon their seeing eyes. De
prived of sight, their minds
seem to fall apart.
Drs. Avery D. Weisman
and Thomas P. Hackett of
Harvard Medical School based
the technique on the psychi
atric understanding that hu
man minds maintain their bal
ance by constantly "testing
reality." Human minds want
to know such things as these:
What is responsible for that
noise I hear? Am I at home
or at the office or in the
j street? What is giving off with
the distant talk? Is it day or
night?
Risk of Disturbances
When you suddenly deprive
the minds of seeing people of
the eye-way - of "testing re
ality" you're risking .disturb
ances in their understanding
of time and place and what
Timber Can Furnish
Half of Economy in
State, Official Says
Portland An Oregon for
ester told Oregon teachers
participating in Portland
State college's Economic Ed
ucation Workshop Monday
that timber can furnish at
least half of Oregon's basic
economy from now on.
W. D. Hagenstein, executive
vice president. Industrial For
estry association, called Ore
gon the nation's No. 1 forest
state. It has the greatest forest
acreage, greatest timber sup
ply and has the greatest, for
' est industry jobs and payrolls.
It is the nation's principal pro
' ducer of lumber, glywood and
hardboard.
He cited the growing im
portance of forest industry
& Oregon's economy by com
paring figures for 1921 and
1956. In the earlier year less
than 22,000 people were em
ployed with an annual payroll
of $27,B)0,000. eThirty-five
years lter, forest industry
employment increpsed four
times to nearly 88,000 with
an Qmnual payroll greater
than $425,00fJ).000. The value
of the state's forest products
increased between 1821 and
1956 from $70j,000,000 to more
than $1,160,008,000.
Significant Programs
Hagenstein cited three sig
nificant programs of Oregon
forestry which started in 1941
(1) the Forest Conservation
act o help keep private for
ests productive, (2) the Keep
Oregon Green campaign to
prevent man - caused forest
fires, and (3) forest industry
founding of the Tree Farm
Movement.
"We had no idea that the
Tree Farm Program would
catch on so fast nor effectively
when we started it in 1941,
Hagenstein said. Today, more
than 41 per cent of all private
forest land in Oregon is in
certified tree 'farms.
Hagenstein .called the great
est advance in forestry in the
last 20 years the saving of
wood by use ' of lumber and
plywood leftovers for raw ma
terial for Oregon s growing
pulp and paper and hardboard
industries. He said this has in
creased the State's timber sup
ply by 100 billion feet.
The forestry leader said
Oregon could keep forever
green through the practice of
tree farming. He warned that
this can be done under private
enterprise only through equit
able timber taxation, freedom
from punitive and restrictive
legislation and intelligent co
operation between Govern
ment timber on the market
at prices consumers can pay.

"Black spot delirium" follows.
Weisman and Hackett sub
stituted the stomach-way and
the nose-way of "testing re
ality" for this eye-way. They
worked with six patients 57
to 86 years old who had sur
gery for detached retinas, the
removal of cataracts, and
similar conditions.
One man had been an Itali
an army cook in his youth. In
his mind this was the most
glamorous period of his life.
He loved spiced foods and
coffee mixed with wine. His
"black spot delirium" .was
dispelled and prevented from
returning by the simple "med
icine" of the doctor sitting at
his bedside, drinking and eat
ing his favorite drink and
foods with him, and talking
about the dangers and glories
of being an army cook.
Had Liked Gardening
One woman patient had
been an enthusiastic flower
gardener all her life. The doc
tor saw to it there were
carnations by her bedside,
giving off their fragrant "re
ality testing" scent in her
blackened world.
Reporting this new . scien
tific know-how through the
New England Journal of Medi
cine, Weisman and Hackett
acknowledged that doctors
have always known that eye
bandaged patients need "sym
pathy" and "support" from
them. But that knowledge is
too general, they said; it lacks
specifications. Find out what
appeals to the patient's stom
ach or his nose of his mem
ories beforehand, they advis
ed, and then make use of
whatever it is when "black
spot delirium" threatens. ,
Austrian Pine Tree
Test for Industry
Thompsonville, Mich.
(UPI) The future of Michi
gan's Christmas tree and pulp-
wood industries may hinge on
a one-acre planting of Aus
trian pine trees near here.
Foresters of the American
Box Board Co. at Filer City
recently discovered , the 27-
year-old planting and cut a
fourth of a cord of sample
wood for pulpwood testings
Austrian pine ' is rapidly
growing in favor for use in re
forestation and Christmas tree
planting," said Rowland Blair,
the company's chief forester,
Blair said discovery of the
one-acre Austrian pine plant
ing provides long-sought in
formation on Michigan plant
ings. Other Austrian pine
plantings were too small and
scattered to be properly eval
uated as to their pulpwood
and timber potential and re
sistance to diseases and in
sects.

Highway Crash
Fatal To Youth
Pendleton (UPI) Michael
Lee Foster, 18, of .Adams,
Ore., was fatally injured early
today when his car struck a
house trailer, then sideswiped
an oncoming cattle truck in
an accident that blocked High
way 30 for more than an hour.
Two occupants of the house
trailer, which was following
van of race horses east on
Highway 30, were injured.
State police said the trailer
of the cattle truck jackknifed
and overturned, killing two of
the cattle and a horse that
was in the same trailer. Twen
ty-five cattle were thrown free
and had to be rounded up. The
van of race horses was un
touched.
Fred Sharpe, 52, of Lexing
ton, Ky., asleep in the house
trailer at the time, was in
jured and taken to St. An
thony's hospital here for treat
ment. His wife, Mrs. Elizabeth
Sharpe, 47, suffered lacera
tions and was also brought to
the Pendleton hospital. The
driver of the car hauling the
trailer, 19-year-old Douglas
Allen Johnson of Winston,
Ore., was unhurt. Albert Klein
of Portland, driver of the cat
tle truck for the Silver Falls
Produce Company, also was
unhurt.
The cattle truck trailer jack
knifed after Foster's car struck
the truck front fender, lock
ing the tire.
The accident occurred about
seven miles west of Pendleton.

tions of many mucous cells.
