Stewart's work reflects "great

Engineers and the Department
of the Army." Specifically,

from July 1, 1958, to June 30,
1962.

He was employed by the
Portland Engineer district in
June, 1939, and has been in
continuous service with that
organization.
On Military Planning
From 1939 to 1941, Stewart
worked on the Willamette
Basin project. At the start of
World War II he was on mili
tary planning for the Port
land district. Later he joined
the U.S. Navy and served in
Construction Maintenance
Unit 564 as an Ensign.
Following World War II
Stewart returned to the Port
reports section in the plan
ning branch. As head of this
section he was responsible for
the Portland district portion
of the revised "308" Report
on the Columbia River and
Tributaries, together with a
number of other less compre
hensive reports.
Colonel Eisiminger said
there were many conflicting
interests in connection with
the use of the Rogue River's
limited water supply and that
Stewart's adopted report was
the result of harmonious plan
ning among state and federal
agencies and local interests.

What Caused A Chesl Pain?
I see each year many per
sons who are fairly certain
that they have had a heart at-
iney nave uou
some pain in
their chest.
Some of these
people have
been to many
r-fjtei'f.'"'
V J Dhvsi clans
i and have had
many electro
cardiogr a m s
made, but still
thcy are puzzled as to what
the pain. Often, in a
few minutes I can be fairly
certain that the pain did not
arise in the heart. Why? Be
cause it does not come with
exertion.
The man may tell me that
he can walk rapidly along the
street ,or he can run up a
flight of stairs. He is not short
of breath; his wind is good,
and he can lie flat in bed at
night - with only one pillow.
His ankles show no swelling.
As he talks to me in the of-:
flee he shows no shortness of
breath. Evidently he has a
good heart. Most important of
all, he has a "good cardiac re
serve." He is like an auto
mobile that has plenty of re
serve power that will enable
it to go not only along the
level, but up a steep mountain
grade.
In typical cases of angina
pectoris, or heart pain, the
man is likely to say that he is
most likely to get it In the
winter when, atter breakfast,
he walks against a stiff cold
wind. It is likely to be re
lieved quickly with a tablet of
nitroglycerin. In some cases
the anginal pain comes with
anger.
As Dr. Ttnsley R. Harrison
recently pointed out, the phy
sician who would make a
nood dlasnosis must take a
good history and then must
know what it means.
Many of the men who some
times have anginal pain can
also have a chest pain due to
arthritis of joints in the front
or back of the chest wall, or
some soreness in the muscles
of the shoulder girdle, due
perhaps to a Saturday spent
in painting a room. Or the
man may get some pain from
gas in his bowel or in his
stomach; gus which is pressing
up against his midriff. Or he
may have some pain referred
up into his chest from a dis
eased gallbladder or a dis
eased pancreas (the Inrgo di
gestive gland Just back of the
stomach).
Rarely, pain In the chest
can be due to a little "hiatus
hernia," or the squeezing of a
bit of the upper end of the
stomach through the hole in
the midriff through which
passes the gullet. This pain is
likely to come when, after a
large meal, the person leans
over to untie his shoelaces. On
rare occasions, I get a pain in
my chest wall which 1 can
recognize as due to a cramp
In a bit of the muscle which
lies between two ribs.
physician, because otherwise
I would worry needlessly -;
mistaking some harmless ;
chest pain for that of a heart i
attack. Occasionally I see a
person whose pain is due to an I
arthritis in the joint between
the lower end of the breast-1
bone and the little piece of!
cartilage that lies just below
it. Sometimes I get a fairly
severe distress In my chest I
which I think is a form of
heartburn. This has nothing I
to do with the heart but is due
to acid Juice from the stomach 1
regurgitating upward into an ;
overly sensitive gullet.
Sometimes nowadays a man
with a harmless chest distress
is supposed to have a heart
pain because someone read
too much into alight and in
significant changes In his
electrocardiogram.
As Dr. Myron Prinzmetal of
Los Angeles has shown, if an
electrocardiogram can he
made while the person Is hav
ing a heart pain, definite
changes in the electrocardio
gram usually can be found.
When a man has typical at
tacks of angina, with normal
electrocardiograms, I often
get great help from the "two
step' 'test of another friend,
Dr. Arthur Master, of New
York City. When the patient
is made to walk back and
forth over two steps, if he has
a narrow coronary artery in
his heart, certain typical
changes will appear in his
electrocardiogram. Then one
knows that the man has a nar
row coronary artery that has
not yet plugged up.
Should you expect sudden
exertion to cause a heart at
tack? This and other inter
esting questions about heart
attacks are answered In Dr.
Alvarez' booklet, "Heart
Trouble." You may order a
copy of It by sending 25 cents

One tub had a sign reading "$2.50 a dozen"; the other a sign
