I a pprec iate their desire to help, but usu ally I have to answer that nowadays few people have any co nee p- Dr AJrares tion of the enormous amount of work that goes into the discovery of just one valuable new drug. Streptomycin was dis covered after some 10,000 samples of soil secured from places all over the world had been cultured, and the molds : that were obtained, tested for antibiotic activity. A tremendous amount of re search has been done in the last 10 years in a search for a drug that will have several times the curative effect of cortisone, without its unpleas ant and sometimes very harm ful effects. Chemists in many big laboratories have been studying hundreds and hun dreds of drugs one after the other and, of course, at great expense. Recently, I read of a power ful new cortisone-like drug which is being tested by doc tors all over. So far it looks hopeful. In some ways, it is many times more powerful than is hydro-cortisone. It hasn't the bad tendency to cause sodium and water to be retained in the body.

Mayo Foundation Emeritus Professor of Medicine, Mayo Foundation generic name of the drug is hexadecadrol. Among the men who produced it are chemists Sarett Arth and David John son, and Drs. William Spoon er, John Fried and Dale Hoff. Requires Great Skill Few people realize that when a new drug is synthe sized, usually only a few grains of the substance are made just enough to test it out on some mice to see how it works. If the results are promising, then a tremen dous effort has to be made to make a few pounds of the material. This is a job that requires great skill and know how. When one starts to make a big batch, so many things can go wrong that often the material is ruined and has to be thrown out. I see that the group who did this particular job included two physicians, four biologists, 20 technical assistants, 21 organic chem ists, five physical chemists, five laboratory technicians, two chemical operators. There were, all-told, 99 technically trained personnel with 23 foremen, and this doesn't count all the supporting ad ministrative staff, the medi cal research division, with its clinical collaborators, or the personnel required later for large-scale production. It does n't include the many physi cians in this country and abroad who are studying the effect of the drug on their pa tients. Not infrequently after huge effort of this type, when the reports come in from the doctors to the effect that while some persons were spec tacuiariy cured, some were made seriously or fatally ill, the medicine has to be with drawn from the market, and a million dollars has to be written off as a loss. Heart Attacks Are Not Due To Menial Strain In a column recently I called attention to the fact, well established of late, that heart attacks are rarely brought on by strenuous ex ertion. Most of them come while the person is either in bed or sitting quietly. Now, Drs. Richard E. Lee and Ralph E. Schneider of New York , have reported a 5-year study of 1,083 male ex ecutives and 293 non-execu tives, all over 40 years of age. They found among the exec utives fewer with high blood pressure, fewer with harden ing of the arteries and fewer with heart attacks. Just why this should be, the - authors could not say. Perhaps the executives do their work with the least tension or fatigue or worry. In Dr. Gofman's book on heart attacks (Putnam), he has laborers almost at the bottom of the list showing the incidence of heart attacks according to occupation. At the top of his list he has work ers with computing machines. I often am impressed that my father, who until he was 84 lived the hardest type of life as a general practitioner, was found at autopsy to have the soft arteries of a child. Evidently hard work is not essential to the causation of arteriosclerosis. A New Anti-Depressant Most encouraging is the re port at the recent meeting of the American Chemical So ciety of a new anti-depressant drug which sounds very hope ful. Its code name is J. B. 516. It was described by Drs. J.H. Biel and Alexander Drukker of Milwaukee. A drug, that could lift people out of a psychotic depression would be of tremendous value to man kind.

Mary S. -1 am 19 and have been married two years. I have two babies - one by my husband and the other born out of wedlock just before I met my husband. ' I didn't hide anything about my past when I got married. My husband knew about the baby and said he would be a father to her. But now that we are married he seems to re sent this child. He shows fav oritism toward his own son and constantly blames me for spending time with my daugh ter. Tom wants me to give my daughter out for adoption. But I hate to do that because I love the baby and was brought up by foster parents myself. I always felt that parents should bring up their own children, even if it's hard. . Tom S. - It's true that I said that I'd be a father to Mary's baby, but I couldn't tell then how I'd feel and she'd act. I can't help feeling more for my own son than for the girl. Mary watches me all the time and if she sees that I hold the boy for maybe one more sec ond than the girl, she'll come down on me like a ton of bricks. We have been having a lot of fights about this and the little girl is getting old enough to understand. It will be worse for her when she gets older. I do have some affection for the little girl and I am just as concerned about her future as Mary is. What is the 'use of keeping her if we can't make her happy? Mary should make a sacrifice for her sake. The Council: From both Mary's and Tom's statement, we gather that Mary's real problem is with herself, rather than her child. Tom claims affection and concern for this child. The mere fact that he was at one time willing to undertake the responsibility to bring her up indicates that his feelings are GAZER?

It is possible, however, that his sudden strong feelings toward his son took him by surprise. Possibly he would not have thought of measuring his feeling for one child against the other if Mary hadn't forced this on his atten tion. Later he may have be come annoyed at having his feelings watched so closely by his wife and finally come to the conclusion that the little girl was a bothersome factor in their home life. We'll hazard a guess that Mary identifies herself with her little daughter. Probably she saw herself as a stranger and unwanted in the foster home where she was brought up. In her pity for herself, she seeks reassurance of love for her little girl. She sees her as a half-unwanted child. It is very unlikely that Mary or Tom could be happy if they parted with this child. If any adoption takes place Tom should adopt the little girl. This will be reassurance to Mary that he sincerely wants the child. As long as he shows her normal fatherly at tention, Mary should try to avoid making comparisons. When she does this, she is only forcing the little girl to feel deprived of love.
