The sergeant was identified by sources as Jack Edward Dun lap, 35, who killed himself in Glen Burnic, Md., July 23. He was attached to the NSA's Fort Meade, Md., headquarters. The agency deals with mili tary intelligence, particularly codes of this country and for eign powers. Us work is per haps the most secret of all gov ernment agencies. It is a branch of the military establishment. Dunlap was believed to have smuggled documents out of the NSA headquarters over a pe riod of more than two years. The Defense Department, ask ed for official comment on the disclosures, said an Army ser geant named Jack Edward Dun lap, formerly of Bogalusa, La., committed suicide near Fern- dale, Md. His body was found by Anne Arundel county police early July 23. He had run a hose from the exhaust of his Cadillac into the front window of his car. The department said Dunlap had been relieved of duty with the NSA several weeks before he killed himself. The FBI declined comment on the story. New Road To Open Deschutes Area PORTLAND (UPI) -An ac cess road which will open up a 14-mile area along the lower Deschutes river is "the first breakthrough in one of the stale's knottiest access problems in 30 years," a Bureau of Land Management official said Thurs day. A survey crew now is staking out the road in Wasco and Sher man counties. The government recently appropriated $2fi6,000 for its construction. Robert E. Wilbur told the Westmoreland Chapter of the lzaak Walton League that pri vate clubs and individuals have kept 60 miles of the lower Des chutes bottled up for the lust 30 years. The private clubs purchased key tracts of railroad land which controlled access to larger tracts of public land, then erected locked gates and no tresspassing signs. Wilbur warned that serious access problems remain to be solved along tho river, however.

YES-BUT NOT FOR STUDYING - i . . i i i s , - wi't a a m .iw m The Medical fv J or Multiple Sclerosis Dr. Fernando Torres, of the University of Minnesota, is in terested in several facts about multiple sclerosis. As he says, whv Hops the disease conr-on- ly begin arouno. age 25, ana wny is its incidence higher in wom en than in men? Why does the trouble tend to flare up and then quiet down? Why is there the defi nite tendenev ,livarcs - . - for it to become less trouble some as the person - ows older? The disease tends to give the most trouble in the first two of five years, after which it gener ally quiets down; there are only a few cases in which it gets steadily worse. The main characteristic of the disease is the destruction of the myelin which surrounds the nerves and thereby insulates them as if they were electric wires. The nerves themselves are rarely affected. Naturally, then, much study is now being directed toward learning wnal factors influence the formation and destruction of myelin. Ef forts arc being made to find out how in health the myelin is formed. In recent years, several re search workers have announced their apparent discovery of a virus or a spirochete (a tiny spiral org is-n) as a cause for multiple sclerosis, but their findings could not be c-'ir"ied by anvonc. There is a possibili ty that the cause is an allergic one. Tile research workers arc handicapped because, so far, they Hvo been unable to pro duce the disease in aniirHs. Something that resembles m.s. can be fnnnri at times in ani mals, and particularly in sheep. It has been f1- that in some cases there is a hereditary factor, but it does not appear to be the essential one. An as yet unanswered puzzle is Why is the disease found more often in countries somewhat dis tant from the equator? It seems to he unknown among the Australian ' ngines. In Israel, Ihi ii cidence imong immigrants fro the northern and central parts of Europe has been some 10 times that among the native Israelis and among immigrants from (he middle - eastern coun tries. How wonderful it might be if we knew why there is this difference. Unfortunately, as yet there Is no sign of a good treatment that is directed at the cause. Baldness in Women Today there are more and more elderly women who com plain of loss of hair. As Drs. Henry C. Maguire Jr., and Al- hert M. Kligman, skin special ists at the Univ. of Peunsyl ,.Z'.',' SUPPLY Phont 773-4573 By Jimmy Hatlo Roundup Emernui Cnr militant in Medicine Mavu Clinic Emeritus Profeiior of Medlcln Mayo Clinic (Recutcr aad Tribune Syndlcat. 1963) vania School of Medicine wrote rocpnllv. this baldness in wom en is very different from that of men in that one pracucany never sees a shinging bald head like-that which many men have. In the women there is an even ly scattered thinning of the hair all over the head. It never be gins as an oval area over the top of the head, and the hair line does not recede back from the forehead, as it docs in mid- dl-agcd men. The doctors suspect that one trouble with these elderly wom en is that they have more male hormone in their body than they should have. (All women have some male hormone in them; it is secreted in the adrenal glands which lie over the kidneys). The only trouble is how to get rid of this excess of hormone, grant ing that it is present; it cannot easily be done. The boldness in women can perhaps be hereditary in origin. It is not associated with dan druff or any other known dis ease of the scalp. Experts are not satisfied that it is due to repeated "waving" of the hair now so popular. Microscopic study shows that what has hap pened is that the follicles in which the hairs grow have de generated. When one looks at these follicles and sees how badly destroyed they are, one cannot have much hope that any sort of treatment can ever bring back the hair; actually the authors know of no way to help. They conclude that Hie best thing the woman can do is to buy a switch or a wig. How To Stop Smoking Recently, Dr. G. W. Lynch of the department of psychological medicine of the Univ. of Edin burgh, said that surveys have shown that if a man wants to slop heavy smoking, perhaps because some serious illness is threatening him, the only good way is to quit quickly and en tirely. Efforts to cut down slow ly practically never work, as most smokers know. Even after a heavy smoker has gone for weeks or months without smok ing, he usually goes back to it. In another studv, it was shown that when a smoker gets a chronic cough there is only one way to get well and save himself from serious injury to his lungs, and this is to quit smoking. Multiple Sclerosis, a much dreaded disease, will in some cases quiet down and leave the patient alone for years, or even for the rest of his davs. Dr. Al varez has prepared a lit t lo i booklet about the disease which i you may obtain by sending 25 cents and a self-addressed, envelope with vour request for it to Dr. Halter C. Alvarez, Dept. MMT, Box !I57, Des Moines, Iowa 50304.

MERFlsfr Bishops Plead for Married Deacons at Ecumenical Meeting VATICAN CITY (UPD-Mis- sionary bishops from Africa, Asia and Latin America Thurs day appealed strongly to the Ecumenical Council for approv al of a controversial proposal to ordain married deacons in areas where there is an acute shortage of priests. Even it you don t need dea cons in your diocese, we do in ours," Negro Archbishop Ber nard Yago of Abidjan, West Af rica, told the council fathers. The council also heard similar pleas for restoration of the an Citizenship Class Urged as Part of School Curriculum By DAVID N'YDICK ITI Education Specialist Millions of eligible voters do not exercise this basic right nor fulfill this responsibility. The reason may be that as students they probably were not fully taught what being a United States citizen involves. Some teachers and schools, recognizing their responsibili ties, place an emphasis on the subject of good citizenship. Some junior and senior high schools have a token course. These are not typical of the nation's schools. Is there a teacher's college which offers a specific course in the teaching of citizenship? Perhaps there are a few but it is certainly not a standard pro cedure. This should be a re quirement for the issuance of a teacher s license. It is every one s fault, not because they ob ject to this but because they have done nothing about it. Participation Needed The strength of our nation de pends upon the enthusiastic participation of its citizens. Some people might argue that the direct teaching of citizen ship is indoctrination. But you cannot expect an individual to guess what his responsibilities are. He must obtain the knowl edge and understanding through education. He must also develop- the attitudes which are neces sary to encourage his coopera tion and participation in activi ties concerned with public wel fare and government. I Mafia May Collect S150 Million Yearly In Detroit Business WASHINGTON (UPI) The "Mafia" collects a minimum of $150 million a year in illegal transactions in Detroit and has infiltrated nearly 100 legitimate businesses, Detroit Police Com missioner George C.

MEDFORD, cient New Testament order of deacons from Archbishop Jose Maurer of Bolivia, who spoke in the name of all the bishops of Bolivia and 20 other Latin Amer ican bishops; Archbishop Paul Yu Pin of Nanking, who spoke on behalf of 40 missionary bish ops from China, Viet Nam, Ko rea and Japan; and from Arch bishop Anton van den Hurk of Mcdan, Indonesia, speaking on behalf of 30 Indonesian bishops. The parade of mission a r y bishops indicated strong support This is not meant to indicate that all citizens neglect their re sponsibilities. But too many tend lo be lackadaisical about these important parts of democratic living. Although not fully responsible, schools have not put the needed effort into developing programs concerning citizenship and re lated activities. Millions of dol lars are spent yearly develop ing cirriculums. Very little is earmarked for research con cerning citizenship programs. U. S. History Fascinating The study of American history can be fascinating. A student is exposed to this several times in his school career. The practice of politics also can be extremely intriguing and important. The schools teach about our govern ment's development and struc ture but they often neglect to in clude a study of political history and influence. The political par ties and their members ' prob ably have more effect upon our government than most other fac tors. An individual surely will have a greater understanding and feeling for our government if he is aware of the growth of political parties and what they stand for. Citizenship responsibilities are more extensive in our form of government than in most others. The development of skills in the area of citizenship is as impor tant as those in science and mathematics. A look at school programs should indicate where to begin solving this problem. Edwards teslified before t lie Senate permanent investigations subcommittee as the crime probers turned to a study of un i dcrworld operation in areas out side New York City, after hear ing five days of detailed testi mony by hoodlum Joseph Va lachi on crime in the big city. Edwards presented a c h a r I showing the names of 63 alleged Mafia members, practically all of Sicilian birth or ancestry, in Ihc Detroit area. "The Detroit area Mafia of the liiiids is big business," he said. "On the legal side it is involved in selling everything from horseraces to fruit juice; on the illegal, everything from dope to football bets. However, the Mafia's principal product is fear." Edwards identified Anthony Giacalone as Mafia g a m b ling boss in the Detroit area, and Pele Licavoli a one of Ihc or ganization's top figures. Less Violent Now In his testimony about crime's operations in the New York area. Valahi said the name of the I :" syndicate in which he was a "soldier" was "Cosa Nostra." But he said some peo ple also called it the Mafia. He I said Wednesday Cosa Nostra I had operations in Detroit, but that he was up''.iliary with them.

OREGON' proposal under which deacons would be ordained to carry on many of the functions now re served for priests, with the ex ception of hearing confession and offering Mass. The proposal had been sharp ly attacked earlier in this ses sion of the council by Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York, who warned that an order of married deacons might jeopar dize the tradition of celibacy for the priesthood. A Curia cardinal. Fernando Cento, also spoke in favor of restoration of the diaconate but said deacons should be bound to celcbacy like priests. He ac knowledged this might diminish the number of men available for deacons but said it would pro duce better quality.

The most controversial of the amendments authorizing con celebration even at the regular Sunday Mass in a parish church was approved by a vote of 1,839 to 315.

Dr. Stephan Seymour, medi cal director of the Seymour Hospital and Clinic for Alco holics in Los Angeles, said, "I don't feel alcoholism is a dis ease. It is an illness only when a person is suffering from acute alcholism, that is when he has been poisoned by alchohol. But chronic alcoholism is an ex pression of a person's inability to think." Seymour, a former Olympic Games athlete, said in an in terview that he came to his conclusion "after treating four or five thousand patients. "I realized that the common denominator among all these patients had been that they had not known how to think," he explained. "They think like children.

The alcoholic says, 'Don't blame me for having a di sease.' " While Seymous conceded that there might be a so-called "X" factor in a person's body chem istry which makes him aller gic to alcohol, he said that wg blame me for having a dis ease.' " "The alcoholic doesn't drink for the pleasure of it," Sey mour said. "He uses alcohol to forget his problems and tho necessity to solve them. The basic reason an alcoholic drinks is that he is emotional ly immature. Mature persons don't turn into alcoholics." Seymour criticized the re search now being done in I'm field, saying it is concentrated into two areas study of al cohol and study of emotions. Thinking Not Discussed "The word thinking is never discussed," he complained. "A person can find out the cause of his fears but that doesn't teach him how to think. It doesn't teach him how to han dle new problems and new peo ple." An alcoholic's difficulties of ten began in childhood, accord ing to Seymour, because par ents pass patterns of immature thinking on to their children by their example. "Problem drinkers are prob lem thinkers surrounded by a family of problem thinkers," he said. Seymous believes so strong ly in the need for improved thinking habits that he is writ ing a book on the subject which, he said, is the product of eight years research into the subject. He also advocated leaching logic in schools. "We are taught facts, but not how to think," he said. EVERY WASHDAY! WITH TRADE PHONE 773-4541 Model No. WDS-2. 4 colon or whlio! 0 (.i
