High Frequency Waves Said To Stimulate Body Against Illness By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor New York-(UPD - High Fre quency waves of the sort used by TV and FM radio stim ulate the "whole" human body " itself against infections and other ail ments, a med ical research s y m p osium was told here. ine xeiiers f were adher- ents of the Duos nuUl theory pio. neered by Dr. Abraham J. Ginsberg of New York since 1936" that these waves in them selves (and not the internal heat they produce, have a beneficial effect on the whole body. The listeners were sev eral hundred invited physi cians. It was the newest effort of the Dr. Ginsberg foundation to "sell" the medical profes sion in general. You must understand there is no suggestion that the TV and radio waves which are relatively new additions to our atmopshere, have been silently improving our health. These are special waves radiated in to the body by a special ma chine of Ginsberg's invention. They're the short and intense waves of the high side of the frequency range, but they're "square-topped" to give maxi mum effectiveness inside the body and they're delivered in pulses of a thousandth-of-a-second duration. Permits Cell Rest The pauses between pulses can be made much longer than the pulses, which permits the internal cells to "rest" be tween stimulation by the bursts of electrical energy that can be brought up to a maximum peak of 1,333 watts. It also prevents the accumula tion of internal body heat. This "diapulse" approach to infections and such ailments as bursitis and other inflama tory conditions has been gain ing steadily over the years. It grew directly out of "diather my" which also is an electrical treatment but one 'in which an oscillating high frequency current is used to? produce localized heat in body tissues just below the surface. "Diapulse" produces no heat, which is the Dasis of the conviction that it brings about systemic changes for the good without there being any possi bility of harm. Ginsberg has a long series of successes with " Jfi i ' ' I"' m, I - I, AT ATTENTION Squinting in the bright sunshine, Queen Elizabeth and President Eisenhower stand at at tention during playing of Canadian and U. S. national anthems at the airport at St. Hubert, Quebec. Ike and the queen participated in ceremonies formally opening the St. Lawrence Seaway. bursitis and similar inflama tions. He and his followers have also aimed bursts of elec trical energy into the adre nal glands whose -secretions mobilize body defenses, and into the liver and other org ans. Results Made Current Their reported successes in clearing deep-seated infec tions without the use of drain age to the outside, also have been impressive, and today's symposium brought all the re sults up to date. Dr. Gerald B. Kara, New York eye surgeon, reported that "pulsed" short waves had basic effects on tissues of the eye and improved various dis ease states of the eye. Dr. Har rison Karp, of Schenectady, N.Y., reported on the clear ing of infections of the mid dle ear. Col. George M. Knauf, of the Air Force medical corps, made a "preliminary report" of the clearing of 46 cases of respiratory and skin infections of bacterial and viral origin. These were the highlights of 10 reports on "diapulse" and sick people. -.V .': ! In the research field, the symposium was told of experi ments indicating that "pulsed" electric energy can have good effects on "hardened" arteries. The adherents of the Gins berg theory believe they're on the road to big things in the treatment of illness. Time will teU. Local Attorney Files For Board Position Medford Attorney G. W.

Of all places to build a nest this probably was the worst; a ditch barely two feet wide paralleled the pave ment. In its stagnant, muddy wa ters grew a small clump of cattails. B y some peculiar quirk of growth, three of the tall stems intertwined. At this junction the little, plainly streaked, female blackbird built her nest. ' It was a four lane pave ment, an arterial . road con necting two cities. A highway that carried heavy traffic day and night, i The ditch-edge, where the cattails grew was barely two feet from the pave ment - edge. The nest itself, about three feet over -the sur face of the ditch-water, was not over three feet from the passing cars. The little blackbird-mother must have completely ignored the roaring vehicular parade while she was building her nest and laying the four blu ish colored eggs, each marked with delicate pen -lines of dark, reddish-brown. Realised. Mistake After the eggs were laid and steady incubation started, it would seem she must have realized her.mistake in.select ing this location. A creature of lesser fortitude would have abandoned the whole thing. The cattails and the nest were so close that the air stream that followed fast mov ing cars set the reeds sway ing and bending with a vio lence that threatened to shake them loose from the muddy bottom of the little ditch. During the many days and nights she remained on the swaying nest there were thousands of motor cars that passed. There was hardly a one minute interval, day or nght, that was quiet. Partic ularly at night it must hrsve been disconcerting, the blind ing lights and the flashing intervals of darkness between cars. Shook iha Nest The roar that accompanied the flashes shook that springy earth of the ditch bottom, vi brated the stems of the cat tails and shook the nest. And all the time the roaring, the rumbling and the screeching. It was like trying to sleep in a boiler factory or trying for solitude in the middle of a Salem Hospitals Plan Rate Boost Salem-flJPD-Salem's two hos pitals plan a rate increase in ward prices, but they hope to keep under the $2 jump an nounced by Portland hospitals. Portland hospitals said they would raise their ward charges $2 to a $19.75 mini mum effective Wednesday. Administrators of the two Salem hospitals - Irwin Wedel and A. C. Branson said the amount of the hike would be decided this week. Wage boosts for nurses and also for non-professional help were a factor in the rise in cost of hospitalization, they said.

(Released by The Register and Tribune Syndicate. 1959) Bank Increases Rale Of Savings Interest A higher savings deposit in terest rate of 3 per cent will become effective July 1 at all offices of the statewide First National Bank of Oregon, it was announced yesterday by C. B. Stephenson, president. Deposits made on or before July 13 will earn the new rate from July 1.

It continues to be the policy of First National to pass along such increases to savings depositors as per mitted by bank earnings, based on prudent use of our deppsitors' money," the bank president said.
