Editor's note : As the young
Prince of Wales joins thou
sands of other boys going back

heir to their throne is getting

LONDON (UPI)-Women have
driven many a man to strong
drink. Can the reverse be true
of Prince Charles, heir to the
British throne?
This summer the son of Queen
Eliiabeth had his first alcoholic
drink in public a cherry
brandy at a Scottish pub.
Ever since then although it
may be merely coincidence
he has been showing interest in
the pretty and well-born young
girls and teenagers from whom

Mental Disorder Due to Copper
In a recent release from the
Albert Einstein College of Med
icine, four doctors Drs. Philip
A l s e n, J. B.
Schorr, A. G.
Morell, and I.
H. Scheinberg
discussed W 1 1
son's disea s e,
which is due to
the piling up of
copper in vital
organs, such as
the brain, t h e
,ivaret "ver and the
kidneys. It generally leads to
both physical and mental crip
pling. It can prove fatal if not
properly treated.
The disease is rare, but there
may be one patient per 1,000
people with it in this country.
It is one of those several brain
injuring diseases which experts
are now looking for in all in
fants, when they are born.
A child with Wilson's disease,
if the condition is not quickly
Ireated, will usually die early in
life. Those who develop the dis
ease during their adult days
may linger on for 10 years or
more. Partly because the mal
ady is so rare, the diagnosis
can easily be missed. The adult
patient may be thought to have
schizophrenia, or cirrhosis of the
liver, or Parkinson's disease.
Fortunately, proper treatment
can do much to save the per
son's health.
When the diagnosis is made,
all foods rich in copper must
be avoided. These foods include
liver, mushrooms, chocolate,
nuts and oysters. To help get
accumulated copper out of the
body, the doctor will give potas
sium sulfide and penicillamine.
To show what can be done:
the doctors tell of a seriously
ill young woman who for a year
had been unable to feed or dress
herself. After two weeks of
treatment in the hospital and
five months of treatment at
home, she was a changed per
sonup and about, and looking
for a full-time job.
Another patient, a 9-year-old
boy, fortunately had the condi
tion correctly diagnosed when
he was 10 months old. Today he
looks healthy. In contrast, his
older sister, whose Wilson's dis
ease was not diagnosed in time,
is very ill at the age of 12.
There is a pw blood test
which makes it possible to de
lect Wilson's disease even be
fore there are any outward
signs of it. Any laboratory now
can make the test with a drop
of blood.
An infant is likely to get the
disease if both of his parents
are carriers of it. In one family
studied, there were three chil
dren, all of whom died of Wil
son's disease.
Because the test is so simple,
from now on in good hospitals
it is likely to be made on all
infants born in the place.
It is so cheering today to read
of these diseases which, if tested
for and recognized in time, can
be kept from seriously injuring
an infant's brain.
Answers are constantly com
ing now to the prayers of hun
dreds of thousands of parents
who have sought everywhere for
help for their mentally retarded
child only if the proper diag
nosis is made in infancy.
Artificial Hearts
Work is being done In a few
places in this country in an ef
fort to find a substitute for a
damaged heart. Possibly some
day a simple motor will be put
into the chest. In a recent arti
cle, Dr. John L. Bach of Chi
cago wrote about the work be
ing done. Already a motor has
been devised that will run on
air pressure derived from the
lungs, but it hasn't yet been
perfected.
During the last years, some
men have been kept alive with
the help of a little electric ap
paratus placed under their skin.
This little mechanism keeps sup
plying stimuli which keep the
heart beating after a "heart
block" has made it impossible
for the normal rhythmic stimu
lus to keep the heart going.
Recently, a way has been
found to tap the body's own
mechanical energy so that, per
haps some day, it can supply
the necessary stimulus that will
keep a heart beating after it has
lost the normal stimulus.
I wouldn't be surprised if,
within the next few year, people
will be walking around, using a
heart which was put into their
chest to replace one that had
begun to work badly. Or, per
haps in many cases, the badly
working heart will be so well
repaired that it will go on work
ing properly again for many
years.
he may someday choose his
queen.
If he were, say, an American
other when Charles graduates
boy, the Prince probably would
already be dating these girls.
But since he won't be 15 until
Nov. 14 and the royal family
has its own strict rtiies he only i
meets them at parties or with ,'
his 13-year-old sister. Princess I
Anne. !
But the interest is definitely
there and the cherry brandy in
cident has served to alert the
British public to what match
makers everywhere already had
taken into account the Prince is
growing up. Despite his com
parative youth, the race to
share his throne distant i
though that day may be since
his mother is a young 37 is
already in its preliminary
stages.
Writer Declares
Administration
'Fascist Type'
PORTLAND (UPD The Ken
nedy Administration is a "fas
cist type" government, writer
and lecturer Ayn Rand said in
a talk at Lewis and Clark col
lege Wednesday.
Miss Rand defined the fascist
state as one where the business
man retains title to his busi
ness, but the government con
trols it by law.
"The New Frontier is not of
socialism but of fascism simi
lar to the Italian dictatorial
scheme of a planned economy,"
she said.
And she added, Gov. Nelson
Rockefeller is a man "who can
carry out all of Kennedy's poli
cies and do better."
Teaches Man To Think
In an interview, the founder
of the objectivist school of phil
osophy said the basic good of
her philosophy is that it teaches
that man needs to think and
then act according to reason.
She said politically she is
neither a conservative or a lib
eral, but "so far right as to be
next to anarchy."
She said she is opposed to Ihe
John Birch Society because it
stands for nothing and is only
against communism. But she
added that she is smeared most
frequently by "liberals" because
she is opposed to the. welfare
state.
Accurate Account
Miss Rand is the author of
"Fountainhead" and "Atlas
Shrugs." She said the latter is
an accurate account of the cur
rent political situation in the
country.
She said the book got bad re
views in 1957 because no one
would believe the events it por-.
trayed. She added that if some
one wrote a novel about the
events in Washington today, "no
one would believe the book."
One of the common miseries
of mankind, probabiy related to
fibrositis or arthritis, is bursitis.
Dr. Alvarez offers more infor
mation about it in his 25-cent
booklet, "Arthritis and Rheuma
tism." You may send for a copy
by enclosing 25 cents and a self

Ashland Student in
Work-College Plan
ASHLAND - Kenneth Bonn,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold
Bohn. Ashland, has enrolled at
Southern Oregon college under
the Lnited States National
Banks Work-College program,
Mrs. Mabel W. Winston, regis
trar, has announced.
Under the Work -College pro

selects young men from com
munities throughout Oregon and
offers them a job opportunity
and a scholarship to attend the
college of their choice.
According to A. O. Strom

and educational director of the
bank's head office in Portland.
Bohn is the first student to at
tend Southern Oregon college
under the program.

Morse Says Firms
Aided in Uprising
I WASHINGTON (UPD -Sen.
Wayne Morse (D-Ore. ) claims
that certain American firms
helped finance political opposi-
; tion to the ousted government
of Dominican President Juan D.
Bosch.
Morse, in a speech Tuesday in
the Senate, said he would with-
I hold the names of the American
I companies and the officials of
those companies involved pend
ing action by the administration
on his demand for an official re
port. "We cannot tolerate any med-
dling on the part of American
i businessmen abroad with Amor

j princelings he is apt to find his
j bride among the British aris
i tocracy as grandfather King
! George VI did when he mr-
ried Lady Elizabeth Bowps-Ly-1
on, now the Queen Mother.
One of his favorites at the
moment is Lady Henrietta Etis-
I ton. 14-year-old daughter of the
Earl of Euston. who was his
j "acknowledged" sweetheart a
i few years ago. As very v oting
children sometimes do, he said
' he was going to marry "Etta"

1 riod of service in the navy

of Edinburgh would like or

Guards in the army. Preceding

is not apt to follow this royal
precedent.
As heir to the throne he will
have to pursue his studies in
the nation he will someday rule
But that will keep him closer
to the blue-blooded British beau
ties whose parents cannot help
thinking of him as the most eli
gible young man in the world.
Through his sister and through
mixed dancing classes Prince
Charles has met quite a few
girls.
Among them is Marilvn Wills,
14, daughter of Hon. Mrs. John
Wills who is the Queen Moth
er's niece; Susan Babington-
Smifh, 13, daughter of a wealthy
banker, is another friend, and
so is Caroline Hamilton, 13,
granddaughter of the Dean of
Windsor.
The Prince will meet more of
the "right" type of girls next
year when he joins the junior
polo club of the Garth Hunt club.
Its members range from 12 to
17 years old.
Charles may have liked the
cherry brandy but if he has in
herited any of the traits of his
fun-loving ancestors, King Hen
ry VIII and King Edward VII,
he is bound to decide soon that
girls are more fun.
