Regional or Terminal Enteritis
Some people write to aslc
about regional enteritis, what it
is and what can be done about
it. In Greek, "enteron" means
the bowel, and "itis" means an
inflammation. What happens in
this disease is that the wall of
one or more segments (short
stretches) of the small bowel
becomes chronically inflamed
and thickened. Often the seg
ment involved Is the lowest one
next to the large bowel, and
then the disease is called ter
minal ileitis ("ileum" is the
name for the lower part of the
small bowel).
Unfortunately, we physicians
do not know what the cause is,
and hence we have no good
drug or diet that will cure, or
perhaps even help, the patient.
None of the antibiotics seems
to do any good.
Because the symptoms are
often vague, with perhaps some
diarrhea, abdominal pain, and a
little fever, the correct diagnosis
may tor a time be missed. Usu
ally it can be made vith the
help of an X-ray study of the
smau Dowel.
In at least half of the cases,
the best thing to do is to oper
ate, and remove the diseased
segment of bowel. A while ago
Dr. Kent W. Barber Jr., and his
collegues at the Mayo Clinic
wrote that in 10 years 257 pa
tients with this disease had been
seen at the Clinic. In 48 per cent,
the diseased segment had been
removed surgically.
In a third of the cases, at op
eration, a mass was found due
to a local peritonitis (inflama-

tion of the inner lining of the ab
dominal cavity). This peritonitis
was due to some leakage of in
fected intestinal contents
through cracks in the abnormal
wall of the gut.
In 86 per cent of the cases
the diseased part of the bowel
was removed. In the other cases
a so-called bypass was made
to shunt the intestinal contents
around a big inflamatory mass
that would have been hard to
remove. In half of these cases,
after the inflamation had quieted
down, the person was operated
on again, and the then some
what shrunken mass was re
moved.
It is cheering now to read
that in five out of six of the pa
tients operated on, the results
were so good that 84.4 per cent
remained in good health. Even
those who had to be operated on
a second time tended to stay
well.
If you are approaching meno
pause you probably have many
questions. Let Dr. Alvarez help

CORVALLIS Cutting a Christ
mas tree can be' a pleasant
family outing, but unless proper
permission is obtained first, it
can turn into trouble.
Oregon law provides penalties
for cutting or removing trees on
private land without the owner's
consent. Trees growing in fed
eral or state-owned forests are
likewise off-limits unless a cut
ting permit is first obtained,
Gary H. Sander, Oregon State
University extension forestry
specialist, has pointed out.
Oregon forest law also re

NCRR Conferences
Set Up in Country
CHICAGO (UPI) - The Rev.
Galen Weaver, executive secre
tary of the National Conference
on Religion and Race (NCRR),
reported that interreligious and
and interracial conferences
have been formed in 40 cities
across the country.
Significant programs of action
are under way in 19 of these
cities, he said.
The National Conference was
formed after a gathering last
January in Chicago of clerical
and lay leaders of the major
faiths in the United States. Its
purpose was to see how or
ganized religion could bring
"its full moral force to bear
on eliminating racial segrega
tion and discrimination."
sale, name and address of buyer
or rece'ver, and legal descrip
tion of the property where the
trees were cut.
Before making a family trek
into the forest, check with U.S.
Forest Service rangers, State
Department of Forestry repre
sentatives, or county extension
agents as to cutting regulations,
Sander urged.
Provide Large Selection
For those who like to select
their trees from a convenient
sales poir.t, Oregon's Christmas
tree farmers this year are pro
viding a large selection of trees,
Sander noted. This year, Ore
gon expect! to harvest more
than 1 million trees.
About one-halt of the trees
are Douglas fir, the traditional
Christmas tree of the Pacific
Northwest. The remainder in
clude such species as Ponder
osa, Scotch and shore pines and
Grand, Noble, Shasta and Whit
firs.

Quality Christmas trees are
now on the market, he noted,
adding that trees bought locally
are usually fresh cut. Early
shoppers can buy their tree
now and still have it fresh and
attractive through the holidays
if they take the proper precau
tions, Sander said.
These include keeping the
tree outside on the shady side
of the house and making sure it
has plenty of moisture.- Sander
recommends standing the tree
in water. If the tree is laid on
its side, rotate it to keep the
needles on the underside from
becoming discolored and host it
down regularly, he said.
Water Is Needed
' When the tree is moved in
side, -make sure it receives
plenty of water, is away from
heat registers and fireplaces,
the specialist stressed.
When selecting the Christmas
tree, Sander suggests that buy
ers consider what kind of tree
they want and how they want to
use it in their holiday decoration
scheme.
The pines offer strong limbs
that can take heavy ornamenta
tion and resist the advances of
small children helping decorate,
he said. The Sierra redwood is
a graceful tree that needs only
light ornamentation or flocking.
Some firs, like the Noble, are
more formal in appearance and
may lend themselves to some
home settings better than oth
ers. But the king of the Christ
mas trees is still the Douglas
fir, "which is best for just all
round use," Sander said.
Experts View Cambodian Aid
By RAY HERNDON
United Press International
PHNOM PENH, Cambodia
(UPI) The suspension of
American economic and military
aid is expected to have little im
mediate impact on Combodia's
national economy, but experts
fear the economy will begin to
deteriorate within the next few
months.
There has been no serious eco
nomic panic. The black market
value o( the Cambodian riel nas
settled back to the normal level
it occupied before Prince Nor
odom Sihanouk's somewhat un
expected decision to demand an
immediate cessation ol all
American military, economic,
cultural and technical assistance
to his kingdom.
The decision is believed to
have resulted from pressure by
Cambodia's next door neighbor
Red China.
American aid officials said
that some consumer goods being
imported under the United
States commodity import pro
gram will continue flowing into
the country, even though the
program has technically been
halted.
Qualified business sources
said that one of the major prod
ucts which the United States
furnished under its aid program,
petroleum, will continue to
come into Cambodia for several
months. The United States re
leased some $:) million for oil
imports only a few days before
Sihanouk demanded the aid
halt.
Will Ration Gas
The Cambodian government,
however, has already begun
planning a rationing system on
gasoline.
Other goods which the Unit
ed States financed such as con
struction materials will also con

placed during recent weeks art
now en route to Cambodia.
American aid to Cambodia,
planned for some this year, was
essentially of three types:
The largest single portion,
some $14.6 million was devoted
to the United States Commodi
ty Import program (C1P)
whereby the United States fi
nanced the foreign exchange
costs of selected commodities
for distribution through Cam
bodian commercial channels.
The United States had also
planned to furnish some $10.4
million dollars worth of military
equipment and basically mili
tary projects this year.
Direct aid in the form of
projects such as schools, dis
pensaries and agricultural aid
amounted to (4.7 million.
Workmen Quit
Aid of all three types has now
been halted and workmen on
some 20 projects have laid
down their tools awaiting the
outcome of discussions between
Cambodian and American gov
ernment officials here.
As one American official put
it, "when we stop work, they
stop too." He referred to the
Cambodian laborers employed
by the American Aid Mission
constructing the projects.
The officials listed some 20
projects which were in stages
of semi completion including
four secondary schools, a tech
nical institute and engineering
college, the teacher training
center at Siem Riep, and the
rural health center.
American aid officials saw
little hope that any of these
projects would be completed if
Sihanouk docs not suddenly re
verse his decision to demand
the withdrawal of all American
aid to Cambodia.
The United States donates
more than $10 million in local
currency annually towards the
salaries of Cambodia's armed
forces.
The grant aid has in the past
paid more than 40 per cent of
the military's salaries and ac
counted for more than 10 per
cent ol the entire national budg
et.
To make up the loss of this
sum, Sihanouk will have to in
crease the deficit m his budget
even beyond the present level
which is about 40 per cent more
expenditures than income.
Sham Command
Sihanouk has made it clear
that he no longer wants the
American military assistance
command in Cambodia. Exist
ing aid agreements call for six
months' prior notice for the
cancellation of the military aid
program, but it is expected here
that the last American military
man will be out of Cambodia
before mid-January.
Negotiations for the cessation
of American economic aid ad
ministered by the Agency for
International Develop ment
(AID) mission have not yet be
gun. American aid officials said it
was unlikely that any of the aid
programs which range from
commodity imports to agricul
tural experimental stations
would be continued.
Some of the United States
initiated projects in the fields
of public health and sanitation
are expected to continue un
changed for a while, but as sup
plies dwindle and are not re
placed by U.S. aid they too will
be in danger.
Study Health
Several studies which were
underway and indeed nraring
completion are now expected
never to be finished since the
American technicians under con
tract to the mission will prob
ably be withdrawn.
The American aid mission
since November, 1962, has been
engaged in a study of health
problems of rural school chil
dren. It was expected that this
study would be completed in
April of next year. Preliminary
findings indicated that among s
sample group of students exam
ined some 59 per cent had tra
choma, an eye disease that
leads to blindness.
An American specialist was
researching insects in Cambodia
and how they could be control
led and kept from damaging
this country's all-important ag
ricultural production.
The halting of one program
will have long-range effects on
Cambodia's economy. That is
the year-round rehabilitation of
the Khmer-American Friendship
Highway which links the rapidly
expanding port of Sihanoukville
and the interior.
One high American official
said that if the rehabilitation
made necessary by faulty con
struction on one- Hand and tropi
cal monsoon rains on the other
stops, the highway which now
carries a majority of Cambo
dia's commerce will crumble
away and become practically
unusable within months.
Cambodia's military f o r e e s
also will deteriorate, observers
fear.
A major weakpoint of the
Cambodian military has always
been the maintenance of Ameri
can military hardware. Even
with American technical assis
tance, more than 75 per cent of
the military vehicles are pres
ently out of service for repairs,
according to qualified military
sources.
Without American military
advisors, practically all the mili
tary equipment is expected to
fall apart or- go out of service
within a matter of weeks.
