54th Year Price 10 Cents uce Buy of the Week! -HELD OVER- Medford 4 Pages MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY JANUARY 25, 1960 2nd Section Engineers Told How to Lay Dust Washington, (Science Serv ye k o s t ice- Highway engineers were H A T T Prod ' V told here how to "lay the dust" kicked up by trucks rumbling along highway con struction sites and keep it down. Ernest Zube. research engi neer for the California Divi sion of Highways, told the Highway Research board meeting .that tests': showed water to fce the most expen sive and "for the most part the least effective method" for combating the dust prob lem. Tests aimed at showing performance and economic advantages of various dust binders were conducted re cently on a highway under construction in California, he said. Beating out water as a means of d,ust control were a diluted asphaltic mixing emulsion, a lignin product and an asphaltic resin product. Sprinkling dirt roads with water long has been used to lay the dust around construc tion, particularly in residen tial areas. But the water soon evaporates and another sprin kling is needed. Dust should be . controlled not only because it poses a public relations problem but, even more urgent, because it is a health hazard to the workmen, Zube said.

National Income Hits Record High Washington. (UPD - Nation al income climbed, to about $400 billion last year, a rec ord high, the commerce de partment has reported. All major industries, ex cept farming, joined in an advance of nearly 10 per cent from the 1957-58 level. The department said it would give an exact national income fig ure after 1 its gets complete data ' on corporate profits "in the fourth quarter. . Only a fraction of the in crease represented inflation and the balance reflected gains in real output, the de partment said.,.w-f- . .'. Like other measures of business activity, national in come hit a peak rate in the second quarter of 1959, then slipped during the summer because of the steel strike and related layoffs. National income includes payments to individuals and corporate profits. It is a less comprehensive figure than the gross national product (GNP), which measures total output of goods and services. The GNP hit a record $480 bil lion in 1959. Coffee May Be Big Boost to Person's Health New Orleans (Science Service) Your morning cup of coffee may be contributing signif iciantly to your health, a team of Tulane university re searchers reported. One cup of dark roast cof fee contains about three milli grams pf niacin, an important B vitamin best known as the pellagra preventive. This is about one-third to one-fourth of an adult's minimal daily requirement. Tests with five adults show that the niacin in coffee is "biologically avail able for man" and that it is absorbed and excreted in the same way as the pure chem ical compound. Light roast coffee contains less niacin about one milli gram per cup but could still contribute significant amounts ot tne vitamin it arunK in sufficient quantities. Coffee the Answer The niacin in coffee may help explain why pellagra is not found in some areas where it might be expected to be a serious disease because of vitamin B-deficient diets. Coffee drinking may be the answer, Grace A. Goldsmith, O. Neal Miller, Walter G. Un glaub and Karen Kercheval suggested in the current Pro ceedings of the' Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine. (Pellagra, now virtually eliminated from the U.S., used to be prevalent, particu larly in the South. It is char acterized by skin lesions, nau sea, vomiting and diarrhea and, finally, by central nerv ous system changes such as dementia.)

The 'copter has no . cabin or seating arrangement. The pilot merely stands on tne ground within the harness of the chassis until the vehicle is airborne. His weight is half above the level of the blades and half below. Mounted about the dough nut-shaped chassis is a circu lar fuel tank that rotates. Two driving blades are mounted radially on opposite sides 01 thp tank and a rudder pre trudes from the rear of the chassis. Two pulse jets at the Uds of the blades, which as sure the blades' rotation, are fed fuel through a flexible tube. The 'coDter. invented by Arnold Junker of Vesenaz Geneva, Switzerland, is con trolled by two handles, one of which operates the rudder and the other of which changes the angle of the driv ing blades. Junker's patent was one of 990 patents grant ed by the U.S. Patent Office here last week.
