An investigation of three communities a stable rural area of moderate-g rowth, mixed-rural region, and a rapidly expanding suburb reveals that the mushrooming suburb housed the highest percentage of patients with coronary thrombosis, duode nal ulcer, and high blood pressure and related diseases. Young women in the ex panding suburb were particu larly prone to these illnesses which a psychiatrist describes as psychosomatic originat ing "in your head." Young boys ran a close sec ond in this report, Dr. Richard E. and Katherine K. Gordon, Englewood, N. J., report in the Journal of . t h c American Medical Association. , It is difficult to show why married women and sons, whose rates are rising, were more, unstable than the men, when much of the relocating is related to the husbands' new job opportunities, they point ed out. In . present day America, many married women who move away from parents and familiar neighborhoods are soon exposed to responsibili ties for which they are poor ly prepared, and for which they receive little assistance, guidance, relief, and relative ly less recognition and praise. These women are shy and in secure, the . researchers explained. Turning to the men of such socially and economically "out of the working class into sub- a suburban community, Dr Gordon explained that many of them are striving to rise executive white-collar . jobs and lesser managerial posi tions." But they face a serious problem in their rise toward greater executive responsi bility because they were not "born to the class" as were many of the men who are top executives. .Thus, the upward ly mobile person has to learn everything the hard way and may have a great deal to lose and knows it. Phychosomatic illness and emotional disorder will disappear in the upwardly mobile person who only when he feels, he is secure and is able to relax. ... when a food .shopper's "paradise' will be opened to" you Watch for it!
