Condition of Arteries Found
Uneffected by Types of Work
ueiui amiui
By DELOS SMITH
. UPI Science Editor
New York (UPI) A close
study of 207 detached hearts
revealed no more artery-
hardening i n
the hearts
which had be
longed to men
with sit-down
jobs than in
those of men
5 whose jobs
had kept them
physically ac
tive.
This c o m-
pllcates scientific efforts to
get at the basic reasons for
the common type of heart at
tack which carries off so
many men in their prime. It
is a statistical fact that physi
cally active men are less prone
to these attacks than men who
exercise their bodies but lit
tle. This type of attack is caused
by a persistent, long-term nar
rowing of the arteries which
nourish the heart muscles.
Eventually not enough nour
ishing blood can get through.
There is a block and the at
tack follows. This channel
narrowing process is called
artery-hardening. .
And so you'd expect the
heart arteries of physically
inactive men to show a great
er amount of hardening than
those of physically active men
of the same age. For the past
few years Drs. David M. Spain
and Victoria A. Bradess have
been checking this expecta
tion. Heart Checked First
Working through the medi
cal examiner's office of West
chester county, N.Y., they
were able to study the hearts
of men who had been killed
in accidents, homicides, and
suicides. Only after the hearts
had been assayed for degrees
of artery-hardening, was there
a check on the ages and occu
pations of the men from
whom the hearts had come.
Of the 207 hearts included
In the study which the scien
tists reported to the American
Heart association, 100 came
from sit-down men - execu
tives, accountants, clerks,
chauffeurs, s t e n o g raphers.
The other 107 had belonged
to construction workers, gard
eners, mail carriers, plumbers
and other artisans.
They were further classified
by age. The years of life be
tween 30 and 60 were divided
into six 5-year periods, and
in this way Drs. Spain and
Brandess checked the degree
of hardening of heart arteries
as the years increased.
As was expected, heart
artery hardening was slowly
but steadily progressive
through the younger age
groups up to the oldest. The
unexpected was that there
was no significant difference
in degree of artery hardening
between the slt-downers and
the physically active men in
any of the six age groups.
This shouldn't be taken to
mean that the statistical stud
ies were wrong and lack of
physical exercise has nothing
to do with proneness to heart
attack. The statistical con.
elusions are well established
and Drs. Spain and Bradess
did not feel their results pro
vided a basis for attacking
them
They suggested the answer
to the apparent paradox was
in "c o 1 1 a teral circulation
Blood flow, since it is under
pressure, can set up channels
apart from the established ar
teries and veins. The scien
tists reasoned that the hearts
of physically active men were
better able to set up these
auxiliary channels than those
of the physically inactive.
When the challenge of a
severely hardened heart ar
tery comes, the heart muscles
of the active already have
collateral vessels in the pro
cess of developing, and so the
challenge is met and there is
no attack.
Khrushchev Doing
At UN To Receive
Generous Coverage
Birmingham, Ala. - (UPD -
Assistant Secretary of State
Andrew H. Berding says the
American press, radio and
television will give Soviet
Premier Nikita S. Khrush
chev's activities at the United
Nations "more than generous"
coverage and "this is as it
should be."
Berdine. who Is in charge
of public affairs for the de
partment, said "part or. our
education is to know what
our opponents do and think.
Part of our strength as a
democracy lies in our free
dom of Information and dis
cussion." His position was contrary to
that advocated in some quar
ters, where it has been sug
gested that the U.S. press ig
nore Khrushchev or give him
the "silent" treatment.
Berding challenged Russia

to give Secretary of State
Christian A. Herter's speech
to the U.N. General Assembly
"just one-tenth the coverage
that American media will give
to the address of Mr. Khrush
chev. Even that would be a
miraculous change of policy."
Berding made his comments
in a speech at the National
Exchange club convention
here.
He chlded the Soviet gov
ernment's refusal to permit
the free flow of information
into Russia, asking why the
Red government was "so
afraid to permit its people to
have access to essential facts
and opinions?
"If, as the Soviet rulers
say, Communism is so strong
that eventually it will domi
nate the world, can it not
stand the light of fact and
argument? Can It grow only
in the mushroom cellar of a
closed society, carefully Im
mured against outside think
ing?" Berding said Khrushchev
undoubtedly intends to make
the United Nations a "propa
ganda sounding board" and
will "try to get the most mile
age out of his pronounce-,
m e n t s, accusations, hashed
over proposals and show busi
ness." He said it was Ironical that
the Russians should pose as
great believers in the United
Nations after having cast 89
vetoes in the Security Council
and trying to block U.N. ob
jectives in The Congo and
elsewhere.
He said Khrushchev also
will take advantage of the
fact that 19 new African na
tions may be admitted to
U.N. membership this year
and "will undoubtedly pose
as the champion of African
independence and strew ac
cusations of colonialism right
and left, east, west, north and
south."
Warned To Remember
But the American official
warned the new African na
tions to remember that Russia
only promotes their indepen
dence In order to prepare
them for absorption into the
Soviet bloc.
He said Africans should re
call that from the end of

Schools Suffer
Growing Pains
Washington - (UPD - Paro
chial schools are suffering the
same growing pains as public
schools.
Enrollment in Catholic ele
mentary and high schools has
approximately doubled since
the end of World War II.' This
fall it is expected to hit an
all-time high of 5,280,000.
The U.S. Catholic school
system includes 10,278 ele
mentary schools and 2,401
high schools. It is the largest
private school system in the
world, and educates about
one-ninth of the nation's chil
dren.
Classroom and teacher
shortages plague parochial
schools no less than their pub
lic counterparts. Indeed, in a
number of communities,
church - operated schools are
even more overcrowded than
public schools.
Catholic elementary schools
are staffed predominantly by
nuns. Although the number
of teaching sisters increased
from 40,000 in 1020 to more
than 76,000 this year, the
rapid growth of enrollment
has made it necessary for
parochial schools to hire an
increasing number of lay
teachers. The proportion of
lay teachers has grown each
year, from 4.6 per cent of the
total staff in 1949 to 29 per
cent last year.
Mainly in East
Catholic high schools are
concentrated mainly in the
eastern states. Except for
California, there are relative
ly few from Kansas westward.
There has been much dis
cussion in Catholic churches
lately about the desirability of
concentrating the church's
educational effort in grades 7
through 12 so that all Cath
olic children could be given
religiously - oriented training
during the crucial adolescent
years. More than half of the
Catholic children of high
school age now attend public
schools.
Catholic schools are financ
ed entirely by private contri
butions. No cost figures have
been made public since 1954,
but in that year the National
Catholic Welfare Conference
said $500,000,000 was spent
on construction and $620,000,-
000 on operating expenses.
Free bus transportation Is
provided for parochial school
students .in about one-third of
the states. Some states also
provide health services and a
few supply textbooks.
Minors Seek $7,000
In Damages Here
Minors Janice Eileen Tor
beck and Harold Lindsay Tor
beck, Coos Bay, through their
guardian, Nancy Torbeck, are
seeking $7,000 in damages
from H u I d a Skevlngton,
Rogue River, as a result of an
automobile accident on High
way 99 at Scenic ave. Oct. 26,
1958, according to a complaint
filed in Jackson county cir
cuit court.
The complaint charges that
Hulda Skevlngton drove her
car into an Intersection in
front of the car in which the
Torbeck children were riding
without first stopping at a
stop sign. Serious injuries re
sulted to the two Torbeck chil
dren, the guardian charges.
Transient Sentenced
To County Jail Term
Francis Earl Mathcny, tran
sient, was sentenced in dis
trict court Monday to 16 oays
in the county Jail for petty
larceny.
Matheny had pleaded guilty
to the charge. Mathey was
charged with taking a jacket
belonging to Roberta Louise
Forbes Aug. 30.
World War II to 1960, the
Soviet Union had enslaved
about the same number of
people as the old colonial
powers had granted indepen
dence. Berding, speaking of the
Ideological clash between Rus
sia and China, said it was "too
soon to speak of any real po
litical break between the two
countries, but the seeds are
sown."
He rejected suggestions that
the United States was "losing
ground" overseas in the con
test with Communism. H e
acknowledged Red success In
Cuba and The Congo but said
that when one looked at the
global picture as a whole there
were "many reasons for encouragement."
