Newspaper Page TextWEDNESDAY. APRIL It. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Democrats Hope To Cash In On Kennedy's Steel Battle Washington - (UPD - Demo crats confidently hope that President Kennedy i three' day war with the steel Indus try will pay political divi dends to their party. The GOP can only hope the uproar will be forgotten by next November and that it can make political mileage by blaming Kennedy budgets for any increase in pric levels Without waiting for public opinion polls, political seers judged the public reaction to last week's short-lived steel price increase to be unfavor able. The President used every weapon at his command to counterattack against what he; regarded as a threat to his entire foreign and dom estic program. Few Voicas Raised While the President and his congressional lieutenants were swinging away, few voices were raised in the political arena In defense of the steel industry. There were critics of the President's tactics and a hand ful who said the price in creases were 'ustified But the Republican Party, which Is supposed to be more friend ly than the Democrats to the business community, offered no general defense. GOP leaders in Congress and the headquarters of the Republican National Commit tee tried to steer the debate over Inflation into more familiar territory. The Republicans took the position that the real cause of inflation was excessive gov ernment spending and defi cits. They said the President was hunting the wrong cul prit in the wronk place. Republican leaders said for mer President Dwlght D. Eisenhower had kept the cost of living in check by fighting to hold down spending by the government. Eisenhower also called for restraint by busi ness and labor to halt the wage-price spiral. Four Dtficlti During the seven years In which he had exclusive re sponsibility for the budget, Eisenhower had four deficits totaling more than $20 billion and three surpluses totaling about $4.5 billion. At the same time, the gov ernment's consumer price in dex rose from 83.8 in 1954 (in terms of the 1037-59 aver age) to 103.1 in I960. Econo mists can disagree about the causes for the rise in the index. With deficit for his first The Medical Roundup f Emarltua. t'i ; Of year and a half in office, Ken nedy committed himself to a balanced budget for the coming fiscal year. The out look for achieving it now seems bleak. With the steel industry as his chief target, he also press ed for wage settlements which would not bring price in creases. Major Elamanl "Steel Is a bellwether as well as a major element in Industrial costs." he told the steelmakers last year. "A rise in steel prices would force price increases in many industries and Invite price increases in others." He also said the steel In dustry, by holding prices sta ble, would put itself In a strong "moral position" to withstand inflationary wage demands this spring. When the United Steel Workers accepted what he called a non-inflationaiy set tlement, Kennedy thought he h.d won the war. He found last week, however, that an even greater display of White House power was needed to win another battle. EmarHni oniiflUnt In Medlctna Mayo cllnlr. Profeiaor or Medlcln Mayo Cuttle (Ittflster and Trlbuna Syndicate. Treatment For Second Childhood Hundreds of unhappy men and women write to say that their father or mother, after a number of little strokes, has become childish, hard to handle, sometimes un r e a s o nable and Irascible, sometimes un able to recog nize members Aivarn oi me tamiiy, sometimes secretive about money, and inclined to be robbed by designing strang ers. Perhaps the mentally dis turbed old mother Is so rest less that she walks all over the house most of the night, turning on all the lights. In some of these cases, the child ish and confused old person gets to be such a problem that he or she has to be com mitted. As I said, any number of grown children of these old people write to say that their doctors diagnosed cerebral arteriosclerosis (hardening and narrowing of the arteries of the brain). The question now Is: Is there any medi cine that will cure this dis ease, stop it from advancing, and - most important of all -bring back good wits to the old parent. Many of the children are so kind and loving that they ask me if they should borrow some money and take their patient half way across the country to a large clinic. No Medicina Known It distresses me to have to say that I do not know of any medicine or diet that will so reverse the narrowing changes in the arteries as to open up these arteries again. Often, when there has per haps been one fairly big stroke, and many little ones, so much of the brain has been destroyed that no doctor can hope to work a cure. Because of this, I hate to see devoted children spending big sums of money on thor ough examinations and much doctoring. One glance at the man or woman should tell any good doctor, or even any In telligent layman what is wrong. What people should know is that the men In a huge clinic have no miracu lous drug that the doctors all over the country haven't yet heard of. There is no medicine I know of that will cure a man who lies on his back all day looking at the ceiling with his mouth open, and there is no medicine that will help an old person who, one minute, seems pretty normal, and the next looks at his son and asks, "What is this stranger doing hanging around here?" In many cases, the best ad vice I can give the children is, "If you are In moderate circumstances and hence can not afford months or years of care for your parent In private nursing home, send him right off to public In stitution. It is better to do this before you go broke than afterward." I recently talked to some fine people who, a year ago, wrote me that they were de termined that they would never send their mentally dis turbed 90-year-old father to state hospital. Now that all of the three sons have spent all of their savings on private nursing, they have had to send their invalid to the state hospital. Some of my correspondents ask me what I think of some patent medicine or "food sup plement" someone wants to sell them for the "cure" of their father. Always, when I look the stuff up, I find it is a mixture of old and more or less useless drugs - a mix ture that was put together "Just to sell" to desperate peo ple. The U.S.A. Food and Drug Administration people are now going after a lot of the high pressure salesmen who peddle such drugs. If one of your loved ones has suffered some of the symptoms described by Dr. Alvarez, you'll want to read his booklet, "Little Strokes." To obtain It, send 25 cents and a stamped, self-addressed envelop with your request to Dr. Walter C. Alvarez, Dept. MMT. The Register and Trib une Syndicate, Box 957, Des Moines 4, Iowa. Pancreatitis Pancreatitis means an in flammation of the pancreas (the large digestive gland which lies back of the stom ach). The acute form is a se rious disease which makes the patient very 111. Many of the persons with chronic pan creatitis have a diseased gall bladder full of stones, and they can be helped by having this condition attended to surgically. Sometimes, stones have to be removed from the com mon duct which leads from the liver through the head of the pancreas and into the bowel. There can be many lit tle stones in a diseased pan creas. Sometimes, when there is an obstruction in the pan creatic duct that leads into the bowel, the valve at the lower end of this duct has to he cut and opened tip. The important point is that severe pancreatitis is so rare that If 1 were to come down with it I would put myself into the hands of a man in a large medical institution a man who specializes in this type of disease, and hence has seen a lot of it. Even he may not known how to cure me. Porter Comments On County Home Rule Charter Here Charles O. Porter, Eugene, Democratic candidate for con gressional representative from the fourth district, told a group attending a coffee hour here last week end that elimi nation of the two-party sys tem would not be an improve ment in county government. Commenting on the pro posed Jackson County Home Rule Charter, Porter said the organization of county gov ernment in Oregon needs many improvements. , Elimination of the tra ditional two party system would not be an improve ment," he said. "It would be a disaster both for local Demo crats and for Democrats run ning for district, slate and national offices because it would deny them the benefit of running under the Demo cratic banner. Spand Twic as Much "If candidates are required to run without partisan labels for county office, the advant age generally would be with those who have the most money available. The records show that Republicans spend about twice as much for cam paigning as do Democrats in addition to having almost all the press on their side. A Democrat needs and deserves to be known as a Democrat. "County party organiza tions need the local races to keep up the sort of interest that will provide help in the congressional district, the state and the national cam paigns. Our nation's form of government depends on the healthy operation of the two party system. Cutting that system at lis county roots won't make it thrive. "This is the ofiicial position of tile Fourth Congressional District Democratic Conven tion which met in Eugene last month. 1 made the motion. argued for it and was pleased when II was passed unani mously," Porter said.
