WoMenis By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK 1 API - A friend of mine had a strange experience the other night. "I watched television for two hours," he said, "and didn't see a single horse." This may mark a historic mo ment in the video industry. For come the falling of leaves this autumn, such an experience may be next to impossible. The hoolbeats of the horse opera will, echo in the nation's living rooms as never before. Two years ago there were only 11 Western series on the major networks, last year 16. But the season upcoming will have nearly two dozen that is, if Hollywood doesn't run out of horses and blank cartridges. Does the sight of a galloping nag now give you a kind of qucazy sea-sick feeling? Well, there's only one way out. You turn off your TV set and turn on your radio. Then you won't have to watch a Western program you'll just have to listen to it. Whether Westerns are really as popular with the people as pro ducers and sponsors seem to think is open to argument. But there is no question they have had a tre mendous impact on our current culture. More money is spent In filming Westerns each year than was re quired to buy all of Alaska in 1867. Many a small girl now not only wants a toy gun as well as a doll She also insists that her doll have a gun, too. Many of us now feel more fa miliar wilh the streets of such old Western towns of Tombstone and Dodge City than we are wilh the streets of our own city. Many of us feel we know Wyalt Earp and Billy The Kid better than we do our next door neighbor. . The cult of the cowboy and the gunman, like the cult of bosom worship in America, sometimes seems to have gone beyond the boundaries of pure entertainment and to have approached the pro portions of a national neurosis. One veteran program chief gives this as the reason behind the epidemic of Westerns: "TV is an escape medium. The best kind of escape is one in which you are shocked and threat ened but not in a way that really could happen to you. "That's why Westerns succeed. You enjoy the tense feeling of watching someone walk down a street in Dodge City in 1870 (0 face a gunman. But one reason you enjoy It is that, basically, you know you won't have to do it yourself. N "Modern plays about the loneli ness and despair every man must face in living may be great art, but they are too real. Sponsors don't like them because they scare you out of your house and Into the nearest bar." This estimate of the situation is probably true. Watching Westerns is for many of us like the ostrich's fabled custom of sticking its head in the sand a way In keep from thinking about our own lives and problems. Meanwhile, back at the ranch seen any Interesting new horses lately? should take place within the Unit ed Nations Security Council. That Council is made up of 11 nations, including the United States, Britain, France and the Soviet Union. If the heads of those the year statements that meas ure just how hard the recession hit them although in each case the two giants in their respec- live industries fared better than some of their smaller companies. four governments sit down in the! Both expect to do better in the place of their regular delegates, the heads ,o( the remaining seven nations may want to do the same As members of the Council, they'd all have a right to talk. Eisenhower wants the 11 na tions' delegates now on the Coun cil to make the arrangements for a summit meeting in the Council This, presumably, would include agreement on what nations should be heard and for how long. But the delegates on the Coun cil haven't yet started discussing such arrangements. And since the Soviet Union and the Western powers have so much trouble agreeing on anything, it's difficult to see how they'd quickly agree on summit arrangements. The Eisenhower administration takes the position that the big powers shouldn't try by them selves to work out decisions that would be rammed down the throats of smaller nations. Yet no stability in the Middle East in the sense of guarantee ing frontiers, agreement against outside attack and so on can be assured at all unless the big pow-l ers do agree on what to do. . Even if they meet within the framework of the United Nations, the U. N. itself will be powerless to assure stability in the-Middle East unless the big powers agree on how lo do it. Meanwhile, French Premier de Gaulle frowns on meeting either in New York or within the United Nations and has expressed fear that unless the meeting is limited to the big powers the whole thing will turn into a donnybrook. Time may show he was a lot more realistic than Eisenhower. Macmillan or Khrushchev. But as of now' none of the questions raised here has been answered. Everything is still in the guessing stage after almost three weeks of letter writing. remainder of the year but stress that just how much better depends upon how much business confi dence revives. In the first six months U. S, Steel reports a net profit of $2.29 a snare, compared witn $4.07 a share in the like 1057 period. um s nrst-nalf net income was $1.17 a share, compared with $1.71 in the previous year. The pickup in the steel business in the last two months is shown in the earnings gain in the Second quarter over the first $1.25 a share in the June quarter against $1.04 in the March period. CM had no such luck. lis sec ond-quarter earnings were 52 cents a share and its first-quarter protit 65 cents. But both are doing better than their industry as a whole. GM' first-half results are 30.6 per cent lower than the previous year. For 21 motor companies and their sup pliers the decline was 57.2 per cent, and five of them operated at a net loss. Big Steel's first-half dip was 41.3 per cent. Count in 30 other companies who have reported on earnings so far and the drop in the iron and steel industry was 52.3 per cent, wilh six showing red ink When the pricing problems are straightened out, the earnings pic ture should improve in the latter part of this year. First, the comparison will be with the last half of 1957 . when profits were starling to slide. Second, business should be bet ter, especially if the new oar mod els click with the public Detroit will make more cars, and profits, and order more steel. Arabia, Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq be invited. It is now proposed that not only the Lebanese and Jordanian situ ations but the Middle Eastern as a whole be discussed. This has brought suggestions that Turkey, Iran and Pakistan should attend. Finally, it is proposed that Is rael had better attend because it: status might come under consid eration. The conclusion seems to be jus tified that any important agree ments at such an unwieldy con ference would be most unlikely ine best that could be hoped for would be that the heads of government of a few of the coun tries concerned might be able to meet by themselves and talk bus iness. President Eisenhower would hardly be either able or willing 10 attend such a summit confer ence for more than a few davs Now Premier Charles de Gaulle of France is suggesting insistent ly that despite any meetings un der Security Council auspices in New York, there be a real sum mit conference in Europe. That may well happen. $P GEE-GEE- QA -OA-ooo-eoo- THERE YOU URE.FOLKS TH4T t4S THE NEW tv4X MIT,GEE-&EE-e4-e4-c5CO COO' WRITTEN BV THOSE &BEJT HOT SONG WRITERS, BUJV BABBLE, S4MMV SOUPT, AL BAHQQ AHD EDDIE (tOIHM'ill Iv Sum mil 3lliiig By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analvst WASHINGTON 1 API-Trying In guess what kind of summit meet ing to expect if any is like try ing to look through a window with the shade down, the shutters closed and the glass painted black.

So just how much time will the bis powers have to discuss Hie problem which prompted the meeting? None of that is clear or predict able now and won t be for some time. Khrushchev isn't choosy about where the meeting is held But President Eisenhower and British Primt Minister Macmillan say it economy By SAM DAWSON AP Business News Analyst NEW YORK (APILeaders of wo of the hardest hit industries in the recession are throwing cold water today on the extreme opti mism 01 inose wno see a new boom under way. These steel and auto spokes men ,are being as hardheaded about this as most businessmen were about not being stampeded into panic by the recession. Roger M. dough, chairman of U. S. Steel,-says, "Improvement in the latter part of this year is not going to he as rapid as some people seem lo think." Harlow H. Curtice, president of General Motors, and its chairman, Alhert Rradley, say cautiously, "A modest upward trend has be gun. Both companies arc still silent on future pricing policies. Both have labor cost problems steel's wage rates have gone up this monlh and the motor industry is in the process of neeoliating a new labor contract with a wage boost probable. Each is in a highly competitive business with that factor weigh ing heavily in price decisions. But each also depends greatly on how the general economy goes in the months ahead. And that un certainly doubtless accounts for some of Rloush's hesitation In an nounce quickly a price rise as other steel companies are starting In do. The GM and Big Steel words nl caution coincide with their earn ings reports for the first half of United Foreign icns By CHARLES M. McCANN UPI Foreign News Analyst It looks as . if there may be a series of summit conferences. It is possible that one confer ence will be held at United Na tions headquarters in New York within the next few weeks. There are increasingly strone indications that if this meeting is held, it will be followed by an other one in Europe, most prob ably in Geneva, Switzerland, or Paris. If those two conferences gave any nope of important agree ments, it is possible that there might be a third one a clean-up meeting. A few weeks ago it seemed highly improbable that there would be any summit meeting tnis year. Then came the United Stales and British troop landings in Leb anon and Jordan This resulted in a demand by Soviet Premier Nikila S. Khrush chev for an emereencv meetine n Geneva at which the United Stales. Britain. France. India and Russia would he represented. witn I'niied Nations Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold sit ting in.

Under the procedure now shap ing up. the U.. conference would be practically an international convention. The entire ll-member Security Council, including the United Slates. Britain.

JORDAN, M.D Written for NEA Service Mrs. P. has asked recently for a discussion of Parkinson's dis ease, a subject of great impor tance to many people. This is a curious condition often also called paralysis agitans or shaking palsy. Generally it begins slowly, us ually in one hand. The shaking. which may not be present constant ly, is most conspicuous when at rest. Some stiffness and loss ol muscular strength may be noticed at the same time. muscular movements are slowed and appear more difficult than normal. The walk is "shuf fling" and quite characteristic. Some other symptoms, especial ly a tendency to lack of expressive ness in the . face, may be present. Sometimes severe anxiety or mental or physical shock seems to bring on the symptoms. Simi lar symptoms may come from in fections, especially what is called epidemic encephalitis. This is a virus infection of the brain, some times called American sleeping sickness. Parkinson's disease is a nerv ous condition, because it comes from damage to a certain portion of the brain not connected with the thinking processes. Probably the-most common form is that which develops in older people men more often than wom en as a result of some obscure process which may be connected wilh hardening of the arteries or some other unknown cause. The shaking may improve from time to time. The disease develops slowly and tends to last for a greal many years. There is no pain and the menial condition is usually nor mal, although afler the disease has existed lor many years mental agil ity may be somewhat slowed. Those sullering from this con dition should be particularly care ful to avoid fatigue. Strenuous activity or entertainment should he avoided, hut a fairly active life with some work is generally de sirable. There are several drugs which are often helpful in controlling the tremors, though complete cure cannot be expected. Cold water treatments, spec ial exercises, sun baths, massage and vitamin preparations have all been tried without much success In recent years a number ol surgical procedures have been tried for Parkinson's disease. Some of them appear promising for prop erly selected patients and every one hopes lhat surgical, as well s tuner ireaiment methods, w become more and more successful.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) The Haitian government may ask Washington to investigate the unsuccessful attempt to overthrow President Francois D u v a 1 i e r launched from Miami. Four Americans and three ex iled Haitian officers were killed Tuesday when their plot failed in fighting that took seven other hves. Port-au-Prince was calm yesterday and the government said it had completely restored peace in the Caribbean republic. U.S. Ambassador Gerald Drew said he thought it "deplorable and shocking" that Americans were involved. American diplomats ex pressed dismay at reports from Miami indicating the sheriff's of fice there had advance knowledge of the plot but did nothing to warn Haitian authorities. Two of the slain Americans identified by Haitian police as Arthur T. Payne and Dany E. Jones, both former Miami deputy sheriffs. Police investigators in Miami said Payne. Jones and four other former deputies had been prom ised $2,000 each to help political exiles overthrow Duvalier. The sheriff's olfice said the men either had resigned or been fired before the attempted coup. A trailer license tentatively iden tified a third slain American as Robert Hickey of Miami and the fourth body bore documents with the names of Evan T. Kaestes of Buffalo. N.Y., and Joseph Walker, no address. Haiti's U.N. Ambassador Ed mond Silvain said in New York that Duvalier sent him a message saying, "There is no question but lhat the Communists were collab orating in this plot. We are ready to turn Tiur evidence over to the proper American officials." Haitian officials also charged the plot was inspired by former President Paul Magloire and for mer Sen. Louis Dcjoie, who lost last year's presidential election to Duvalier. Both men denied this in New York.
