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

; 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.

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.
