Women Now Have Corner On Shareholder's Market Br GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York - IEPD - The hand that rocks the cradle also rolls with dough. This is the conclusion ob vious from looking at the latest census of shareholders, published this week by the New York Stock Exchange. The census ought to bury once and for all thepopuUr notion - source unknown - that .women have no money sense. .True, there are some excerptions including me. But the nation's females have enough savvy to have a corner on the shareholders market - they not only hold more shares than men, but have increased that lead since 1956, when the last exchange study was made. Housewife Leads Further, the largest single category of shareholders now is the housewife - four mil lion wives who do not hold outside jobs own stocks. This is a gain of more than one million since 1956. " . Of the total of 6.347 mil lion women shareholders, 2.275 million are housewives who also hold outside jobs The stock exchange says that .women now account for 82.8 per cent of all adult shareholders, compared with 51.4 pe rcent in 1956. Men make up 47.5 per cent, silent decline from three years ago when the propor ' tion was 48.6 per cent.

It's interesting that among the new shareholders also, the women outnumber the men 56.3 to 43.7 per cent. No Surprise Lawrence said the ex change is not surprised to find women shareholders in creasing rapidly. "As the shoppers of the nation deal ing with the outgo," be said, "they also are learning how to handle the income. It is a healthy trend ... it shows the woman is acquiring more economic literacy and educa tion. "It's an old wive's tale that women have no money sense ... there are exceptions of course. But watch them make today's dollar work for them, and you'll see they know what they're doing." "Investing," he said, "is increasingly a family deci sion." ' Hypnosis Club Topic Dr. Aubrey M. Hill, Ash land physician, talked on "Hypnosis" for the last meet ing of Jackson County Medi cal Assistants. It was held at Rogue Valley Memorial hos pital. Dr. Hill first endeavored to determine what his audience knew of hypnosis, and then went on to explain how it had so often been used for enter tainment. He told of the his tory of hypnosis, and describ ed how it had first been used in medicine and dentistry. Dr. Hill described methods of inducing a person into a hypnotic state and demon strated one method, using his audience as subjects. He 'then presented another demonstration on a guest sub ject, first inducing the deep sleep state and showing how to ascertain if the subject is fully hypnotized. Dr. Hill showed how the subject could be mad highly sensitive or insensitive to stimuli, and how he was fully able to speak and move freely about the room. A post-hypnotie sug gestion was also demon strated. In conclusion, Dr. Hill 'stat ed that hypnosis is now anoth er tool of medicine, being taught in all major medical schools today; he stated that it is completely safe when used by a physician. 4 - Family Returns , Mr. and Mrs. Roland H.

Experiment With Antibiotics, Food By BERNARD BRENNER United Press International Washington-IUPD-You- may be swallowing tiny doses o antibiotic "wonder drugs" with your food if Agriculture Department scientists succeed These scientists have found fresh longer by slowing the They now are hunting for new antibiotics which would be safe enough, even on raw foods, to pass the rigid tests de manded by the Food and Drug administration. Experiments in preserving fresh foods have produced "promising" results on spinaeh, cole slaw, peas, broccoli, cauliflower, lima beans, and peaches, Harold T. Cook and W. T. Pentzer said in a recent But before anybody begins feeding you an involuntary dose of antibiotics, the Food and Drug Administration -which must approve all food 'additives"-will have to be satisfied its use is necessary and won't hurt you. For instance: The drug used in trials with spinach and cole slaw, streptomycin, probably will never be accepted by Food and Drug for use in preserving foods, Cook and Pentzer said, because strepto mycin is not completely de stroyed by cooking. Health authorities would object that some people might be sensi tive to the drug or build up a "tolerance" to it, reducing its value for treating disease. Antibiotics originally were used only for fighting dis ease. Three years ago, the Food and Drug Administration ap proved the use of aureomycin for preserving poultry, and one year later the agency okayed the use of terramycin for the same purpose. - Today about eight per cent of chicken sold in the U.S. is treated with one of these drugs. Treated birds remain in "acceptable" condition under commercial refrigeration for 14 to 21 days, or about 5 to 10 days longer than the stor age "life" of an untreated bird. -The treatment does NOT dose the consumer with anti biotics, because heat breaks down the two approved drugs, Cook explained. When the bird is cooked, no antibiotic residue remains. The same cooking "safety factor" would apply to the use of antibotics to preserve fish. Canadian food authori ties recently approved this use of aureomycin and terra mycin. No presently-used antibiotic would get serious considera tion for use on fruits and vegetables unless the foods were to be cooked, Cook pre dicted. For foods which are usually eaten raw, or can be eaten either cooked or raw, this probably means agricul tural scientists must turn up new antibiotics which give "even , greater reduction in decay and (are) safer for the for all the Dads you know "Father's and a wide wide in a research project. that antibiotics can keep foods action of spoilage organisms. department publication. consumer," Cook added. Anybody formally propos ing this use of drugs will have to carry the burden of proof on questions like con sumer "sensitivity" to drugs, the build-up of immunity, and the possibility that antibiotics may suppress some strains of spoilage organisms only to produce new, more potent spoilage bacteria. But by concentrating on a search for new, specialized anti-decay antibiotics, .Cook indicated, the researchers hoped to ease worries about reducing the effectiveness of medicinal drugs.

The Lead Pencil Manufac turers Association claims that 90 per cent of all writing still is done with the old-fashioned style pencil, which consists merely of a stick of lead en cased in wood, with the point at one end and an eraser at the other. -That was the original type of pencil, introducea only a little more than 100 years ago, according to the association. But there are all sorts of lead writing instruments to choose from today. There is a jumbo pencil, for kindergarten and first grade students. There are standard general-use pencils with lead in six degrees of hardness, to suit all writing tastes. There are colored pencils in 36 different shades. Some are made with water-soluble leads, so they can be used for drawing colored pictures and then converted to water color with a few drops of moisture applied in the right way. Other pencils are water-re sistant. These are useful .for labeling phlox and petunias in the garden or for writing junior's name on his rubbers, boots and raincoat. One new pencil develop ment is the pencil that writes on glass, cellophane, plastic or any other slippery surface That means a housewife can label her jars of preserves merely by writing on them instead of going to the trouble oi using sucKers. The same pencil also can be used to mark freezer packages.
