DAYS CWAsED Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF RESERVISTS HAVE revived the World War pleasantry about the sergeant who barked, "When I say 'fire' I want all of you to fire at Will" whereupon one recruit jumped up and ran like blazes. "Who was that man?" demanded the sergeant. The answer: "That was Will." "English in the vernacu lar," writes Penny Droke, 'can be a pretty painful thing: sometimes. Once the great American public gets hold of a good phrase, it often worries it to death. Like this: Time-wise, you do better on the turnpike, but traffic-wise, the old road is better Or 'food- wise, it's the best place in "' town, but it's not much atmosphere-wise. Or that other current favorite: 'He's an actor's actor,' or 'a writer's writer, or what ever. We recently heard a Skid Row hotel referred to as a 'flop house's flophouse.' ' . An extravagant king of Saxony once borrowed every cent that his court jester had put away for a rainy day. "Now,' sighed the jester, "I understand the meaning of that old adage: a fool and his money are soon parted!" 1962, by Bennett Cerf. Diati ibuted by King Feature! Syndicate The Medical tf, V Diet For Mentally Retarded Child I am always sorry when I receive a flood of letters which show me that 1 have too greatly raised the hopes of many unhappy mothers. Evi dently when I recently wrote about two very rare di seases of in fants dis- Aiv.rez seascs wnicn if not quickly recognized and quickly treated will cause mental retardation I did not make it clear enough that a special diet will save the in fant's mind only if it is pre scribed right after the child is born. This is why I was sad when so many mothers wrote to say, "I have a mentally retarded child 5 years (or 10 years or 15 years) old; please send me the diet to cure her." In the first place, the chances are great that the child did not have phenylketonuria or galac tosemia, and in the second place, as I said, a diet is of no value unless it is given in early infancy. I am happy to say that to day, all good children s spe cialists are testing every in fant as soon as it is born to see if it has any one of the few di seases for which there is a treatment available. 1 am sorry to say that in many cases, when a child's lit tle brain is born perhaps poorly developed, and later does not grow well, there is little we physicians can do. As yet wc have no medicine that will cause a detective or under-developed organ in the body, like the brain, lung, pancreas or kidney, to grow or to develop normally. The inability to do this often dis tresses us. There is one type of retard ed child who can be helped with a drug. He lacks enough thyroid hormone, and can be greatly helped if given thyroid substance early in his life. These children can often be recognized at a glance. Excesi ol Calcium in Blood Quite a few people write wanting to know why they have an excess of calcium in their blood. Perhaps they also have some stones in their kid neys. If I were to develop stones in my kidneys, the first thing I would do would be to get measurements made of the amount of calcium and phosphorus in my blood. Es pecially if the amounts of 1 By Jimmy Hatlo ME STAVED OUT OC WORK THREE TMfc MICKjET MUST V El HIM OUTA TOWN LAST TIME UE SAID WE uOT WIS POCKET PICKED.'

There are normally four of these tiny glands bodies as big as large grains of rice which lie behind the thyroid gland (just below the Adam's apple in the front of the neck). Sometimes these parathyroid glands function too poorly and sometimes they function too actively. In both cases there can be a number of distressing symptoms. Some persons suffer from loo little parathyroid function; this usually follows accidental removal of the parathyroid glands during an operation for removal of a goiter. What hap pens is that the level of cal cium in the blood falls very low. As a result, the muscles and nerves become very irrit able and tend to go into cramp-like contractions. The patient often becomes de pressed, irritable, anxious and even mentally disturbed. The symptoms may be so mild and vague that it is difficult to guess what they arc due to. These persons often become weak and tired and complain ing of palpitations, with numb ness and tingling in their hands or feet. More commonly, one sees people who arc suffering from excessive activity of the parathyroid glands. They tend to have too much calcium in their blood. There are a num ber of forms of this disease in which there are different symptoms; sometimes there arc mild convulsions, some times there are peculiar cystic (hole-making) changes in the bones, which can be seen in x-ray films. Unfortunately, because the disease is rare, we doctors sometimes do not quickly think of it; wc do not look for signs of it, and so we common ly fail to make the diagnosis.

The Register and Trib une Syndicate, Box 957, Des Moines 4, Iowa. Are Substitutes For Teble Salt Safe? People keep asking me if the common substitutes for table salt are safe to use. Ac cording to Dr. Ogdcn C. John son, writing in the Journal of MEDFORD mJ REASONING BEHIND TWO-STAGE TAX CUTS "If a patient is seriously ill and a major operation is called for, you don't fiddle around. It's an emergency, you rush him to the hospital and you operate at once. "But if the patient's trouble is that he is just not as well as he could be with an operation he can play nine holes of slow golf, but not a normal 18 in normal time then you schedule the proper operation at the best time for him. To lessen the shock to his system, you also consider doing what's necessary in stages over, say, a cou.jle of years." Thus, a high Treasury official explains the reasoning be hind the increasingly firm administration decision that Presi dent Kennedy should submit to Congress in January a sub stantial across-the-board tax reduction to take effect in two steps the first big cut in 1963, the second smaller reduc tion in 1964. The "patient" is the U.S. economy, of course. Our econ omy is not seriously ill. In fact, since the Cuban showdown and the Chinese drive into India, both business and the stock market have shown signs of perking up a bit. But the U.S. economy is not what it should or could be. and this is lh heart of the matter. Our unemployment rate is stickily high, there is widespread idle capacity in industry, our rate of growth it limply not lufficienl to take ud the slack in manpower or machinery. What the economy needs to par, and there is remarkable unanimity among informed observers that the operation needed is substantial tax reduc tion for individuals and for corporations in order to give consumers additional spending power, to increase demand for goods and to spur industry into investing many more bill ons in modernization and The situation, though, is danger that a single, major operation would be too great a shock. The logic, then, is for tax cuts in two stages, in 1963 and in 1964. This is the reasoning in simplest terms. While final de cisions are still to be made, it appears more and more prob able that this is the tax package and timing that Kennedy will submit to Congress. With the federal budget deficit for the current year to end next July already estimated at close to S8 billion and with still another deficit shaping up for the fiscal year 1964, how Congress will respond to a Presidential request for multi-billion dollar tax slashes is highly questionable. Resistance to cutting taxes and swelling the deficit to an all-time high for peacetime is certain to be considerable. But guessing what Congress will do at this early date is futile. The key point is that the administration is wrapping up n narkace of r-rcat and permanent tax reduction and reform and it s getting set to ngni nam lor uie pacnasc in una imi Congress. Just as the prime legislative target of the Kennedy admin istration in 1962 was the revolutionary Trade Expansion act. so the prime legislative target of the administration in 1963 is to be deep, broad tax reduction ano overnaui oi our ousu lete tax structure. The administration won ill battle for the most sweep ing tariff reduction powers ever given to a U.S. president this past session because it fought with every weapon at its command. Months before the trade act was even intro duced, supporters of the bill were fanning out through the country to gain approval of key industrialists and labor leaders as well as lawmakers. Some of the concessions made during the light were so obviously designed to win votes they were embarrassing. Yet, in the end the administration won hands down. The same strategy is being readied for the tax bill. On tii siiMrv mipsiinn of closing of tax loopholes, for instance, nfiirials sav that every "reform" proposal will be measured acainst one yardstick: Will economy's growth? Only if the answer is yes, will the reform be pushed. "The biggest reform of our tax structure would he reduction of the tax rates themselves," is the significant comment of one policy-maker. "This is the reform we arc after." . . What Congress will do is an unknown. What the Admin istration will do barring a world crisis is known. It will fight for a historic cut in taxes and pcrmament revision of our tax structure. Applicants for Peace Corps Have Variety of Washington- UiPU -A kindly person listed as a reference by a youth trying to get into the Peace Corps reported helpfully that "even police patrolmen that have arrested him in past years stated they liked him." This showed up in the pro cess of checking the nearly 50,000 applications the Peace, Corps has handled in the past 18 months. Officials said to day its hard to tell who's best at torpedoing applications -the applicant or his refer ences. One applicant, asked to list his primary skills, wrote re gretfully "I don't remember." Another, arriving at a ques tion asking what he hoped to accomplish In the Peace Corps, summed it up in a nut shell: "Peace." One youth described liiin sclf as a "jack of all trades," and added plaintively "I wish I could be the master of one." One said his occupation was "connector of steel girdles," and another had ex perienced "gorilla warfare.' The references ran the gamut from malice to bumb ling helpfulness.

British Half-Penny Said On Way Out London - UIPU - The British half penny, like the farthing, may be dying out. John James, deputy master of the royal mint, reported today that the mint made no half-pennies last year for the first time since 1869. The half-penny, pronounced "havpny," if worth about one- half of a U S. cent, although it looks much grander than that. It is a copper coin some what bigger than an American quarter and, with the tin wicldly penny, is responsible for wearing most of the holes in British pockets. "II is fairly certain," James' annual report said, "that the useful life of the half penny is nenring its end." If so, it will follow into oblivion the farthing, which was worth only one-quarter ot a penny. TRADE REVIEW ENDS !

P I pine for the Great Outdoors, yet he never takes me on his camping trips. Mr. T. P My camping trips are usually part of busi ness trips and no women are along. Mrs. T. P. I'm a woman of 50 and up to the time of my marrige last year, 1 neia a responsible position as cafe teria manager and cook in the school system of New Mexico. While visiting my brother in California, I met Tom. We correspondend for several months and were mar ried last Thanksgiving. Maybe his disregard of my tastes comes from not know ing me well enough. I can't believe it's because he doesn't care. But he not only moved into a city apartment, even though I've lived on farms all my life, he also leaves me behind during his frequent trips, into the woods and mountains. I hunger for the wide open outdoor life. I used to get my fill of it. Now I'm starved for a spell of fishing and camp ing. Also, I miss the compan ionship of my three sons and seven grandchildren, especial ly since I get so little of Tom's. Mr. T. P. I'm in the lum ber business and my camping trips aren't pleasure jaunts. They're business. Nobody brings a wife along. We ex plore limber forests, visit mills and work out deals. Rcgina would be completely out of place. I'm sorry she takes this the wrong way. This is the only fault I have to find with her. She's too sensitive, never seems to un derstand my position. The other day when I was packing to go, I happened to say, "Well, I won't see your smil ing face across the table for a few days." She began to cry and accused me of being tired of her. I have very little real rec reation. When I do, I still like some of it with my old pals, and I save some for Rcgina, loo. But she's not working now and she's perfectly free to get out in the country by herself whenever she wishes. Tha Council: Home, home on the range, and the discour aging word for Mrs. P. is gas range. That's not the range a free-roaming soul Jike she wanls to be tethered to. How dense can a man be? Here he's plucked a woman from her accustomed milieu, moved her hundreds of miles from her family and friends, isolated her from the familiar haunts and activities, and then expects her to fill In the blanks by sitting around wail ing for him or wandering out into new byways and trails all alone. He, on the other hand, goes along In exactly the same sort of life he led before marriage, except that now he has a good cook on steady contract and a female companion when he wants one, which doesn't seem lo be very often. Nevertheless, there's still romance and music in the air for this pair whose prime-of-lifc marriage occurred rather suddenly. Evidently they knew neither each other nor the nature of marriage very well. The missing ingredient here is compromise. How? By do ing the considerate thing by each other, even though it's not llie comfortable, conveni ent thing. To Mr. P. we say, this lady married you to en rich her life, not impoverish it and we're not talking of cash. Surely you can tear yourself awav from business plus those "old pals" more often and take Rcgina out to the "wild and woolly" acres she loves and misses. But to Mrs. P. wc say there's nothing unnatural or insulting about a husband en joying some solo recreation nor a wife, too, for that mat ter.

Peyton Slaying Case Two Years Old Portland it'Pli Two years ago today, a Portland lovers' lane yielded a brutal dis covery. The body of a wcll likcd young student, Larry Ralph Peyton, of Portland, was found slabbed and beaten in his car. There was a bullet hole in the window. Six weeks later, the body of his girl friend, attractive coed Beverly Ann Allan, 19, of Port Townscnd, Wash., was found near the Sunset high way. What happened to the Port land State College student and the visiting Washington State University sophomore between the time they left Peyton's home for an evening in Portland and the time their bodies were found remains a mystery. County detectives have fol lowed uncounted leads, sifted mountains of information, in a search for clues that might solve the double slaying. Similar slayings in other parts of the country have been investigated. But today, two years after the savage murders, the Peyton-Allan case remains un closed and unsolved. ' Jiffy-Knit Hit!
