Pinworms Until a few years ago, when a new anti-worm drug was discovered, many mothers used to tell me that sev eral of their children had pinworms, and no doctor had been able to get rid of them. Then a new worm medicine was In ariz o l s covered , and evidently it was very ef fective, because my mail in regard to worms promptly became practically non-existent. Now, for some curious reason, "'worm letters" are coming in again. Obviously, the most impor tant factor in getting rid of these tiny white worms is a drug that will quickly kill the adult female, which lays the eggs that give rise to a new crop of worms. Fortu nately, the good drug that has now been found tends quickly to clean up the infestation in almost all of the children treated. But after using the drug, the children's mother should know enough about the life cycle of the worms and their eggs so that she will not per mit the members of her fam ily to gel re-infested with a new crop of worms. Sometimes, a child can bring some of the tiny worms home from school, where about half of the children car ry them; perhaps most of these children have no symp toms, and hence the mothers do not know that worms are present and should be attend ed to. Stick to Skin The most common symptom is itching of the crotch at night, when the worms come out of the bowel to lay their eggs. The itching may keep the child from sleeping well, and this may make him nerv ous and irritable. After the eggs are laid, they stick to the skin and, within hours, pro duce new worms. As the child scratches, he nearly always gets eggs and perhaps tiny worms under his finger nails, and from these they get into his food and his mouth, and eventually reach his bowel. The eggs are carried with dust onto his clothes, onto the hair of his dog and into the air of the house. And from the air, the eggs can get into ri A short walk is good for you.

BART in ' the food and into the bodies of all the people living in the house. In homes of children with pinworms, an expert can find the tiny eggs in almost every bit of dust that he examines with his microscope. Obvious ly, if the people in the house hope to stay free of pinworms, there must be frequent clean ing of dusty surfaces with a damp rag. Prevents Spreading It is important for all the members of the family to be treated at the same time. It is a good idea to have the infected child sleep at night in tight cotton panties, which must be washed every day; this will prevent the eggs from being spread. The eggs, when swallowed, mature in the bowel in 14 days; then, in from four to six weeks, new worms are laying more eggs ani the cycle con tinues. The new drug, called pyr vinium pamoate, works much better than the old "gential violet" did. The drug is not very poisonous, because a child who accidentally swal lowed 20 tablets of it did not become seriously ill. The product comes as a liquid "suspension," which tastes of strawberries and is acceptable to most children. It also comes in tablet form. Everyone in a home should take a dose on the same day. Physicians have reported 100 per cent of cures. One dose is given, varying in size with the body weight. Strike Against Boeing Appears To Be Imminent Seattle -OIPD- A strike of 40,000 workers appeared im minent today in the long, drawn-out labor dispute be tween the International Asso ciation of Machinists and the Boeing Co., makers of the Minuteman missile. The only question remain ing appeared to be when the strike will come. That may be settled at meet ings of 600 shop stewards and IAM local leaders which the union has scheduled across the nation for 6 cm. fPDfl toriiw Would Idle Thousands If the strike date is set It would mean that 26,000 pro duction workers at Rnrine plants in the Seattie-Renton, wasn., area and 14,000 more at Wichita, Kan., and Minute man installations at 12 Air Force bases across the nation would be poised to leave their jobs. Twice before the union has threatened to strike in the dispute. A strike was averted Jan. 25 when President Krnnpriv acting in what he said was tne interest ol national de fense, invoked the Taft-Hartley Law and obtained an AO- day cooling off injunction. Again Called Off A strike was set again for April 16, the day after the injunction expired, but it was called off when the company made a new contract offer. That offer was rejected by 877 votes in a nationwide elec tion earlier this month. The only alternatives to a strike this time would be a new contract offer from the company, resubmission of the last offer to the union mem bership, or further federal in tervention. None of these moves ap peared to be forthcoming. Tax Committee Raps Chamber Salem -flJPH- The House Tax Committee got back at the Portland Chamber of Com merce Saturday for chamber criticism of the committee's revenue-raising program. It happened when Richard Brown of the chamber ap peared before the committee on another bill. The chamber earlier this week said it will oppose the House tax plan on the Senate side. The committee debated the program section by section with Brown, and rebuked the I chamber for "coming in here four montns late and giving I us hell." Brown was told, "it would ' have been helpful if you had ' appeared before, rather than to wait un'il we were finished and then pick the program to pieces." New Constitution Nears Crucial Test In Oregon House Editor's note: Th. Oregon House will act in a few days on what many feel will be the most important success - or failure - of the session: A proposed new state constitu tion. This is the first of a series. Br ANN H. PEARSON Salem - On - A proposed new constitution for Oregon is about to meet its most crucial test to date: Action by the Oregon House. It is the farthest Oregon has come toward modernizing a basic document that was hurriedly drafted in one month 106 years ago - two JEALOUS EX-SUITOR Santadi, Italy tUPD When Francesco Corresu and his bride Cornelia were married in this Sicilian town Satur day, no one stood up in church to object to the match. But someone set off a dynamite charge in the house where they spent their wedding night. No one was hurt seri ously. Police said they were looking for one of Cornelia's ex-suitors. This year the average U.S. consumer will use only 19 per cent of his earnings to uy food, a record low. years before Oregon became a state. Since 1857, the present con stitution has been amended 111 times. Its length has grown to 21,982 words. Many of its provisions today are con flicting, ambiguous and archa ic. Others have stood the test of time. After the second World War Youthful Marriage Bill Clears House Salem -(UPll- A bill to re quire circuit judge approval to the marriage of a girl under 17 and boy under 19 passed the House Saturday. It went to the Senate. The House also sent the Senate a bill to let minors play billiards. Another House bill sent to the Senate would transfer a number of administrative agencies from the State Land Board to other agencies. The Land Board still would make policy decisions. pressures grew to bring the document up to date to meet the needs of a modern state and provide a framework for the future, not the past. Study Authorised The agitation for constitu tional reform by individuals, groups and political leaders led the legislature in 1953 to authorize a study. In 1955, the study group recommended a convention and offered a suggested draft. The 1955 Legislature rejected a convention, partly because of the $1 million cost. In 1959, the legislature rec ommended an alternative way of revising the constitution: In a single package that would require two-thirds ap proval of each house plus vot er approval. The next year, voters approved this idea 358,367 to 289,895. Commission Created The 1961 Legislature cre ated the Oregon Constitution al Revision commission to write a new constitution. The new draft was written over the past two years by a com mission of distinguished mem bers, and submitted to t h e present legislature. Committees of the House and Senate, during the put three months, have overhaul ed it section by section, mak ing some changes. Now, to advance to the peo ple it needs a two-thirds vote of each house. The new constitution con tains less than half the words of the present one. It contains 14 articles: Bill of rights, suf frage and elections, initiative and referendum, legislature, executive, judiciary, secretary of state, local government, public officers, taxation and finance, governmental activi ties, and amendment and re vision. The last two articles arc traditional from the old to the new, and transfer many provisions of the present con stitution into the laws. The proposed new docu ment does four main things: -It gets rid altogether of obsolete provisions such as those on dueling. -It transfers from the con stitution to the statutes many governmental details, as well as provisions such as liquor by the drink. -It keeps rights and provi sions that have stood the test SHOPPING CENTER STORE 3 DAY SALE aprh m md 30. may 1 STORE Sundays 10:00 S:10 HOURS: Men. 4 Ftl. :30 - 9:00 Tuts., Wee., Then.
