Local Woman Back From World Peace Congress Mrs. Alexander (Annalee) Stewart, Washington, D.C., na tional legislative secretary for the international congress of the Women's International League for Peace and Free dom, left Saturday after being the houscguest since Friday of Mr. and Mrs. Harlan P. Bos worth Jr., Applegate. Mrs. Stewart, in October, 1858, spoke in Medford to members of the local chapter of United Nations. Mrs. Stewart and Mrs. Bos worth arrived in Medford Fri day from the Asilomar, Calif., conference grounds near Pa cific Grove, paiif., where they attended the 15th triennial In ternational congress of the In- Nibblers Defended By Heart Institute Washington (UPI At last a defense for nibblers! Studies reported by the Na tional Heart institute show that a flock of chickens given free access to food to nibble around the clock daily for five weeks fared better than chicks in nearby coops who ate regu lar meals. The chickens who ate regu lar meals and did not nibble had cholesterol levels twice as high and coronary atheroscler osis seven times as severe as did nibblers. This despite the fact that the regular peckers had con sumed about one-third less food than the nibblers. Identi cal foods were eaten by both the nibblers and the regular menl chickens.

Nurserymen Now Use Gamma Radiation To Treat Bulbs, Plants Cleveland, Ohio- IUPII -Atomic science has not yet gone to seed, but it may have a big effect this year on bulbs, shrubs and the (lowers that grow from them. Gladioli and several types ol roses, laboratory treated with gamma radiation, are be ing made available to home gardeners for the first time The flowering bulbs and plants, crown by Mentor Nurseries, Inc., Mentor, Ohio, ore subjected to cobalt 60 ra diation at laboratories here fore being distributed nation ally by the Sanl-Specd Manu facturing Co. Nurserymen admit they cannot predict accurately what effect the radiation will have on the bulbs and shrubs. They say only that the treat ed plan's probably will be bigger and sturdier and the blossoms may be more color ful, if not bigger, than un treated ones. Philip Scgelin, president of Mentor, said there is no dan ger to the gardener from the irradiated plants. He said radiation cannot be passed from plant- to person any more than one sunburned per son can pass his tan or burn to another. For spring planting, irradi ated gladioli, rose of Sharon, climbing ruses, and tea rose are available. Crocus, tulip, hyacinth and daffodils are be ing readied for fall distribu tion.

The league was formed in 1915 and this was the first meeting in this country since 1924. One of the founders was Jane Addams, pioneer Ameri can settlement worker and Nobel Peace Prize winner. Theme of the 1962 congress was, "Total and Universal Disarmament Now," and Else Zeuthen of Denmark, in ternational chairman, presid ed. About 300 women from 23 countries attended the confer ence which opened July 7 in San Francisco and continued July 8 at Asilomar. For the first time Arab and Israeli women attended. Many of the women hold governmental positions in their countries, while some were from professional field3 including law, Mrs. Boswnrth said. One delegate was a for mer physician to Ghandi, another was the maharani of Patiala, India. Favor Disarmament "Peace Is in the Air," one delegate pointed out and Mrs. Stewart explained that since 1958 when she was in Med ford, she had seen a great change In the attitude of Con gressmen toward favoring dis armament as the only means of peace. She also said she be lieved that more and more persons are beginning to change in favor of disarma ment. It is hoped that a smaller group of delegates can con vene before the next triennial session when women from China can attend, Mrs. Bos worth continued. One of the main issued brought out by Mrs. Stewart at the recent congress was the instruction of delegate., from other countries on how to communicate with leaders in their own countries by In doctrinating them with ways used in this country. Countries Noted Countries represented were Denmark, Poland, Canada, West Germany, Britain, France, Sweden, Norway, Ja pan, Israel, Switzerland, In dia, Syria, Kuwait, Colombia, Cuba, United States, Austra lia, Finland, Nigeria, Iraq, Lebanon, Haiti, and New Zea land. Because the Portland pro vincial branch only recently has been organized Mrs. ltos- worth joined the Jane Addams branch, Philadelphia, Pa , and has been a member since 1958. As a branch member she was eligible to join the interna tional branch. Mrs. Stewart was a guest in Portland of Mrs. Charles Da vis, president of the Portland branch, the first W1L group in Oregon and was to speak Sat urday to members of that group. In Seattle Sunday she spoke at the Peace center at the Worlds fair. From there she will return to Wash ington, D.C.

Mrs. Chitwood Lack of Physical Activity Said Cause of Back Pains By PATRICIA McCORMACK United Press International New York-IUPII-Desk-bound white collar workers male and feniale - sooner or later suffer the se d e n t ary hu iii a n's p a I n. Sitting still too long, sit ting too much and not mov ing around enough con tribute to the ore unational McZarmH disease - back ache. Dr. Hans Kraus and Sonya Weber, of New York City, report the chances of preventing pain in sedentary persons can be improved by simple measures. Samples: Changing rhairs frequently w h e n working; changing head posture; Ink ing live-minute breaks tor mild exercise such as walk ing up and down lhe corri dors. Also: incorporating HI to 3(1 minutes of exercises into the daily routine; developing walking habits, including climbing stairs; and engaging in some activity as walking, swimming, tennis, or garden ing on week ends and on one week day. The researchers, reporling In a journal, "Archives of en vironmental health." note thai a lack of physical activ ity is a major cause of low- back pain. Their statement that exer cise can prevent as wen as remedy the situation is ba:,ed on a study of i2 psychoana lysts, a highly sedentary group, and earlier research by Dr. Kraus. Each analyst was lesleri to determine his muscle deficien cies and exercises were pre scribed to overcome Ihese weaknesses. Alter exercises were learn ed, the analysts were told to perform tlirni nl home at leasi once a day for five to 20 minutes.

Sealed Containers Will Keep Pests Out of Dried Foods Corvnllis - Cornnieal, rai sins, dried prunes, apricots and rice should be stored in tightly sealed containers to discourage invading insect pesls, advise Oregon State University entomologists. Some of the most common invaders are demestid beetles, bran bugs and cereal psocids. Dermcstid beetles, more com monly known as carpet hect ics, are the most difficult of all pests to control. If found on food shelves, look around other parts of the house for their presence. Infestations are frequently found in old sacks of rags, wool sweaters or oth er clolhcs containing wool, fur or feathers. Among bran bugs, the saw loothed grain beetle and red (lour beetle arc most likely found in coarse ground cere als. Sometimes they can he snohed in flour, dried milk, nuts, dried fruit and pel food. 1 OSU .specialists suggest a four-point control program. Get rid of infested food.

OREGON Veni-Vidi By MARGARET SCHULER By MARGARET SCHULER Vatican City - about the size of an 18 hole golf course -is paradoxical and incredibly interesting. It is a sovereign state; the smallest in the world. It came into being in 1929 and oddly enough a dic tator - Benito Mussolini -helped create it. It is exempt from all Italian jurisdiction, taxes and laws. It issues its own passports. As there is room for only about 1,000 persons to live in the city, a man loses his citizen ship at the age of 25, unless he is in service in the Vat ican. The Pope, of course, is the chief of state. There seems to be no end of interesting facts about the Lilliputian state. It prints its own stamps (and a letter mailed outside its walls is thrown out as certainly as though it had a stamp of the United States on it). It prints its own currency; it has its own police force, four post offices, a printing shop, a gro cery store, book shop, bakery shop, and a newspaper. It has factories, such as one for making mosaics; it has a world famous observatory, a radio station (which beams information into Iron Curtain countries in a dozen lan guages). It even has its own railroad, the shortest in the world - only a few yards long. All you have to do to enter is to go there, and yet it is as heavily guarded as any city in the world. It sends out and receives diplomatic representatives, but it is pro fessedly neutral. Among others, Japan and Great Brit ain maintain legations there. Russia, Red China and the United States do not. Going through St. Peter's or the Vatican museum you see certainly an international 'crowd of people - people of every color, nationality, and faith in the world. Besides being the largest church in all Christendom, millions of visitors think it is the most thrilling vista in the world lo enter St. Peter's. To learn the proportion is im pressive, too. The length of the middle nave is 614 feet and its height is 150 feet. There are 44 grand altars and more than 800 columns of marble, bronze and plaster. There are naves alone which are bigger than some of our cathedrals. The big cupola is 430 feet high. When the basilica is ablaze with myriads of candelabra; when the famous Swiss guards In their brilliant strip ed yellow, red and blue uni forms and plumed hats are in attendance for a special cere mony, then it is an experi ence not lo be soon forgot ten, because when the Pope (called "Papa" in Italian) en ters, the 100.000 participants cry out. "Viva il Papa." To say you have seen the Vatican museum in one visit is a colossal understatement. It would require weeks to skim over the treasures of the museums of the antiquities (the largest collection in the world), to visit the 15 large public rooms with Iheir 400 masterpieces, to study the murals, the tapestries, the an cient maps and globes, and after this to see the Vatican library - so great that it has not even all been catalogued. From there you study the Borgia rooms, the Raphael rooms and the Sistine hall. The Sistine chapel-the great est artistic wonder - is at the end. Besides the ceiling, frescoes of Michelanglo, there are the famed wall paintings of Botticelli, Pinturicchlo and other masters.

J. Cloyd Miller, former president of the National Education as sociation of the United States, has been 'named educational consultant to People-to-Peo-pie, Inc., it has been announc ed by Joyce C. Hall, chair man of the executive commit tee of People-to-People. Dr. Miller's primary re sponsibility in the organiza tion established to build inter national good will, will be de velopment of an international school-to-shcool exchange pro gram, Mr. Hall said. The pro gram, now in operation on a pilot basis, is aimed at large- scale communications ex changes between elementary and high schools in this coun try and those of other nations. People-to-People was found ed in 1956 by Presidenl Dwight D. Eisenhower to build friendships between in dividuals of different nations. It was reorganized in Novem ber, 1961, with headquarters in Kansas City, as a non-partisan citizens movement. Gen eral Eisenhower is chairman of the board of trustees. Dr. Miller retired in June as president of New Mexico Western college, a state-supported liberal arts college in Silver City. He was president for 10 years. In 1951-52 he was president of the National Education association. He is a former president of the New Mexico Education as sociation; former president of the New Mexico Schoolmas ters club; and past president of the New Mexico Associa tion of College Presidents. He was chairman of the board of the New Mexico State Board of Education from 1956 to 1959. In 1951 he led the American delegation to the convention of the World Confederation of the Organizations of the Teaching Profession, at Malta. He is a past president of the National Council on Educa tional Travel. Dr. Miller is a graduate of the New Mexico State univer sity, Las Cruces; holds a mas ter's degree from the Univer sity of New Mexico, Albu querque, and a doctor of laws degree from McMurray col lege, Abilene, Texas. Jeters Travel To Weaverville Hornbrook Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Jeter returned recently from a trip to the coast. They traveled to Weaverville, Calif, where they toured the histor ic Joss house, and also visited friends in Crescent City and Smith River, Calif. On their return trip, the Je ters visited with inspectors at the Redwood Quarantine station. All have been co workers of Mr. Jeter, as he has been with the California Inspection service for more than 25 years takes place and they elect from their own number, the new Pope. There is a bit of interest here. The ballots are burned in a little stove, from which pours out the smoke, and for the half million people in the piazza awaiting outside, this is the signal that the new Pope is chosen. All roads lead to Rome, and all the buses on all roads cer tainly lead to the Vatican. During the height of the tour ist season there are as many as 150 buses in the piazza- big buses with as many as 60 persons in each one. All these with their guides travel through, try to listen to and not gel lost from their own guides in the Vatican. The crowds, milling in and out, looking up, looking sideways, studying books, continue day after day all summer long. I would say all the year long. Like at a railroad station.
