OREGON PAGE 8 A Doctors Wonder Whether Fats Cause Heart Disease t By JERRY BENNETT WASHINGTON NEA - Wheth er you should pass up that serving of thick sausage gravy in order to stay alive is one of the questions that medical scientists hope to an swer as they try to find the exact cause of heart disease. During recent years, fats have been strongly suspected as the cause of atherosclerosis, the most common form of hardening of the arteries. Atherosclerosis is a disease that Lawyer Tries To Invalidate Trial Evidence A trial opens in circuit court Monday for Raymond Hoover, ac cused of being a convict in pos session of a concealed weapon, but an interesting issue already is before the court. Hoover, 26, 1937 Wantland Ave nue, was arrested by city police on a ' downtown street early on the morning of August 30. At that lime officers ordered the passen gers out of his car and removed a .38 revolver one of them had beert trying to hide. The issue presented before Judge David R. Vandenbeg Friday was whether the evidence the gun had been legally obtained. Defense Attorney Glenn D. Ram irez filed a motion to suppress the evidence on the ground it was nhtained bv unlawful search and seizure. He maintained police of ficers improperly seized the gun hrfnre thev made an arrest. The state, represented by Depu ty District Attorney 0. W. Coakcy, rnntended the seizure was legal because -an informal arrest took nlace when Hoover suomiuea himself to the custody of police officers. Some interesting principles are Involved. The issue could lead to Interpretation qf federal and state constitutional provisions againsi n legal search and seizure. If the defense succeeds in re moving the un from evidence the state's case would be crippled: But Hoover was a man city police long suspected of carrying a gun but never before had been suc cessful in apprehending him with one. .ludoe Vandenbere held the mo tion under advisement until Mon- Police first were called to the case when two men on Seventh Street complained that Hoover had held a gun on them while accusing them of giving a girl in his car a "bad lime." Hoover's car was double-parked on Seventh Street at. the time. Police motioned it to move and stopped it in front of Basin Motors where the arrest was made. Four passengers were in the car. All got out at police orders except Patsy Hoover, who finally was forced outside. On the seat where she had been sitting officers said they found the revolver.

Bonney is a memDer of the executive board, serving as state vice president. Xampa, Idaho, is named for Chief Kamnuh (Biz Foot), leader of the Idaho band of Shoshone Indians causes fatly deposits lo form in side the arteries. When these substances start to harden, they marrow an artery so that its ability to handle the flow of blood is destroyed or severely hampered. This condition often leads to the formation of a blond clot which can prove fatal if it takes place in vessels that nourish the heart or brain. The fatly material which often shows up in the largest amounts is a vital chemical called cholesterol which the body uses to make sex hormones. It's this evidence that's responsible for the indictment of some of your favorite foods and one of the biggest controversies in medical history. Many doctors believe that dras tic changes should be made in the average American's diet. They base their beliefs on studies that show that fats increase the amount of cholesterol in the blood. To fur ther support their arguments, they point to statistics that show a direct relationship between the consumption of fats and a coun try s heart attack rate. For instance, medical studies show that the average American gets about 45 per cent of his cal ories from fats while a Japanese gets only 10 per cent. This dietary difference is probably responsible for Japan s heart attack rate he ing only one-fourth that of the U.S., these doctors say. Laboratory experiments have revealed that only certain types of fals raise the cholesterol level of the blood. These are saturated fats which are derived from ani mals and appear in bacon grease, butter and milk. Other tests have shown that un saturated vegetable fats, like corn oil, actually reduce the amount of blood cholesterol. That's why some .specialists believe' that people should substitute these products for animal fats whenever possible. They explain, however, that the vegetable products often lose their cholesterol lowering powers when put through a special chemical process called hjdrogenation which hardens them. This is the case of many of the household baking and frying ingredients. The Pitman-Moore Drug Com pany has developed a special non- hydrogenated margarine from corn oil which is sold only in drug stores. Recent hospital tests show that the special margarine, called Emdee, reduced the cholesterol levels of patients when it was sub stituted for regular ingredients in !he preparation of their food. Many heart specialists, however, believe that it's still too early to recommend that healthy individu als shun animal fats to avoid heart disease. They explain that there are too many unexplained factors involved in coronary attacks to place all the blame: on fats. For instance, tney report tnai the people of Denmark, West Ger many, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden eat about the same amounts of fats as U.S. citizens. But the heart attack fatality rate of those countries is only half that of the U.S. These doctors also explain that cholesterol has never been proved to be the chemical ringleader in causing atherosclerosis and that other blood substances may do as much or even more damage. Thev explain that other things besides animal fats also tend 'to increase the amounts of cholesterol in a person's blood. Several experi ments have shown a direct rela tionship between tension and a rise in the fatty substance. Another of their arguments against condemning fats too soon is based on reports that throw sus picion on sugar and proteins. Doe- tors explain that the real villain can only be named after scientists have completed a lot more re search.
