Doctors Wonder Whether
Fats Cause Heart Disease
t

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.

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. I

Co-chairmen for the special

Pace With Tomorrow program
being undertaken by the chamber
of commerce were announced Sat
urday by Jim Wells, general
chairman.
At the same lime. Wells dis
cussed aspects of the revitaliza
tion and reorganization campaign
that should have special signifi
cance to businessmen.
Named to head the special pros
pects division, which is charged
with a special approach toward
planning and financing the pro
gram, were Andy Collier and Russ
Tisdale.
Collier and Tisdale have been
asked to organize approximately
30 business leaders whose ideas
will be incorporated in developing
the program.
With Collier and Tisdale, co
chairmen of the special prospects
to, he said, was that of Great
Falls. Montana. It is a communi
ty similar lo Klamath Falls in
many respects, including size,
area of location and the site of
an Air Force base.
Great Falls," he said, "has
one' of the most dynamic cham
bers of commerce I've seen. It
brought three new manufacturing
plants to the city in 1958 alone,
and it was instrumental in en
couraging Air Force expenditure
of more than 25 million dollars
on construction there in the last
four years.
"The reason I'm extremely in
terested in this ("Keep Pace With
Tomorrow") program," he said,
"and the reason I'm devoting time
to it is because- of the importance
of the chamber of commerce in
the growth economically in Klam
ath Falls."
