Emotions and Your Health

•y Herman N. Bimdeten, M. D. MIND and body are one. For good or 111, the body is controlled by the mind and the mind Is. in Ita turn, influenced by the health or sickness of the body. Just as certain physical lllnesH cause mental depression, so emotional tip sets can result in physical disorders. It Is well-known that worry and fear may produce symptoms which duplicate those occurring In ulcer of the stomach. There is no ulcer, but such patients may suffer as acutely and in much the name way as they would If an ulcer were present Pain Not Imaginary Thia does not mean that the pain and distress of so-called nervous indigestion are Imaginaryf Symptom* are very real and they are due to the fact that the stomach and bowel are not functioning as they should. Furthermore, the symptom* may keep the affected person from eating the right sort of foods and. a* a result, nutritional defilclency occurs. Acordlng to Dr. Charles T. Stone of Galveston, Texa*. common complaints of patient* with this type of disturbance arc pain in the right lower part of the abdomen which often may be miw taken for chronic appendicitis, and pain in the left upper part of the abdomen which Is often called heart trouble by the patient, There may be pain In the pit of the alomach with vomiting. Other symptoms include the formation of excessive amounts of gas in the bowel, bloating and rumbling noises within the abdomen. The treatment of this type of

Frank Kltsou, superintendent and the county commissioners are hosts today to County Homo Huperinteudnnts of Northeastern Indiana, and other public officials from over the Mate. They visited the new Adams County Home and were entertained at dinner, a program being held during the forenoon and continuing until mid afternoon. It was a privilege to have them and we take for granted that the visitors were impressed with the splendid home which thia county provides for Ils aged and infirm. —O-0 — Wai experiences have a strange way of flowing naturally Into related peace work for many people, rather than ending as Isolated periods of life. A notable example is that of Claire Chennault. famous leader of the Flylug Tigers, who ferried war supplies into China Now General Chennault Is going back to China, to organize an airline which will take food to areas

gripped by famine He knows the country, the flying problems there, and the great need for help. So in a curious repetition of his pioneer work for China, he return.with an equally Important task —— 0 O'— ■ When Jack Johnson became the first Negro to win the world's heavyweight championship, he ailed just like most other champion boxers. He dissipated, and lost his championship the first time he met a challenger. That is why many prudent sports writers always predict the challenger will win rather than the champion. Joe Louis has been different. Money did not go to his bead as it did In the case of most of his predecessors. He has been one of the few boxing champions who behaved himself. Whether or not h< holds his title against Billy Conn, Joe's fellow Negroes can be proud of him. —o IX Congress approves the Navy's > WWSB plans for a post graduate school for officers on the Pacific Coast.

The new academy will admit graduates of civilian coll eges, and Admiral Nirnltz has gone on re< ord saying that these men can be quite as valuable to the Navy as Annapolis men. The military services all learned something from the green reserve ofli <ers upon whom they were so depenendent during the war. They discovered that for what these men lacked in specific military they more than compensated with their breadth of experience and Interests and the speed with which they picked up new knowledge.

disturbance may be hew carried out if the patient is put into * hospial. He can b» kept at rest and efforts made to restore bis nutrition. The overweight per;,on should be ieduced in weight and the underweight person should be brought up to normal weight Most of these individuals are not physically tired, so that instructions to rest are useless and of no particular benefit. It is important that the right sort of relationship or friendship be established between the doctor and the patient. An explanation of just what is wrong may be very effective in bringing about Improvement. The patient should be allowed to talk about his ideas and recations. Proper suggestions from the doctor are also often helpful. On the other hand, the patient must be made to discount the remarks and attitudes of other persons alam i his condition. Os course, surgery Is useless in such cases because there are no actual physical defects which it can correct. Naturally. It should be avoided. The doctor must realise that the upset digestion Is hut a reflection of upset emotions and that the one can be cleared up only when the other is controlled. flence. he will help the patient to get at the source of his emotional disturbance. Often the many fears that beset such pat lints can Im shown to Ire groundless. Reassurance and tact and sympathetic understanding on the part of the physician often add up to restored confidence aud cure for the patient.

Steel-Nerved Pilot Saves 42 Passengers Engine Burned Off, Pilot Crash-Lands Hartford. Conn., June 19 — (Up)—Forty-one passengers took off for Europe in a second PanAmerican constellation early to day after seven breathless minutes within "an arms length of heir’ when an engine burned off their first plane and a steel nerved pilot crash-landed It at nearby Willimantic. Conn. (tidy one "^ LJ Pboard the first constellation declined to continue the trip alma rd the second. The Rev Cornelius Curtin, 55, of Sydney. Mont., cancelled his reservation and caught a irain for New York. The hero was cool, level-headed Capt. Samuel H. Miller, who in a split second decision set the plane down without injury to any of Its occupants. Among the passengers were Ijhwrence Oliver. British actor, and his red haired wife, beautiful Vivian Leigh, the star of "Gone With The Wind." "We thought we were gone," said Olivier. "ft looked like the end,” said Miss Leigh. "It was kind of a close call." said Father James O'Connor, 33, of Merrill. Ore., one of six priests en route to Ireland. “I thought we were all goners." The plane, one of the largest and fastest of the commercial airliners, took off from LaGuardia Field shortly after S p. m EDT. yesterday. It was bound for Shannon. Eire, wi’h the first stop scheduled at Gander, Newfoundland. At 5:5k p. in. Capt. Miller, who's home Is In White Plains. N. Y. radioed taGuardia Field that his right engine was on fire and he was returning.

There was no panic. The pas sengers sat silent, trusting the man at the controls to do the liest he could to save them. He did. The engine burned out of the wing and fell on a farm near Plainfield, Conn. The pilot cut out an engine on the other aide to relieve the pressure on the weakened wing. He decided to try to make Hartford and spotted the field at Wlliimantl, 25 miles east of here, circled it, decided it wax large enough, and tried to lower his landing gt-ars. The fire had damaged the hydraulic system. The landing gear was locked. Miller radioed the field below and told them he wax going to crash land. Four ambulances waited. Miller tried to bring the plane down with the wind, but saw that he couldn’t. He circled the field and came in against the wind. He landed the plane smoothly on Its belly on the soft grass beside the runway in center field. It wax 6:05 p. m.. seven minutes after Miller had radioed LaGuardia field that the engine was burning. "We were within an arm’s length of hell," one of the pas lungers said as ground crews swept around them. ‘‘That pilot’s good, steady arm saved us. He never wavered a minute.”

New Zealand Favors U. S. Keep Control Urge United States To Stoy In Pacific By Jack Bisco (Copyright 1940 by United Press) Wellington, N. June 19 - (UP)-Prime Minister Peter Fras er told the United Prow in an exclusive interview today that New Zealand favors continued control by the United Hiatw of Japanesemandated islands in the Pacific but under United Nations trusteeship. "New Eeland wants the United States to stay In the Pacific," he said, "but we feel the responsibility should not rest wholly with one nation but should be vested through the family of victorious countries." Fraser urged the establishment of 3 Pacific regional committee comprising representatives of the United States. Britain. France. Australia, Canada and New Zealand to promote the health and welfare of Pacific Island natives.

Fraser expressed his views <m my arrival here as a passenger on I’anamerlcan Airways first peacetime clipper flight from San Francisco and lam Angeles to Auckland. Fraser made these points: 1-New Zealand with her DIO,mio square miles area will welcome a fair share of displaced Europeans aa permanent residents and no distinction will he made between Jews and non-Jows. 2 -Due to a housing shortage New Zealand will lie unable to accommodate any sizeable numbers of refugees for possiblly three years. 3--New Zeland'a labor government is preparing new eoclallutlon ineasuroH, possibly including socialization of the coal industry. Fraser noted that New Zealand already has accepted between Sou and 900 Polish children who had Iwen deported by the Rusaiaim to Siberia. "When this immigration occurs," Fraser said, "we will want single men and women who ure prepared to ent«r industry and do their share in helping us replenish the supply of goods. Wo don't want shop keepers.” * ‘MMH' Fraser believes hia government has advanced socialization farther than any other country not excluding Russia. He pointed out that New Zealand already has programs for social security, government medical services and medicinal, government low-cost housing, government utilities, railroads, and buses, government radio stations and government subsidies to mothers for each child born. Declaring that these were all achievements for the common good of New Zealand. Fraser predicted that other countries Including the United States would follow tn New Zealand’s path.

CHAPTER SIXTEEN THE WOMAN sat back, dabbing het lip with her handkerchief, half-smiling, glancing at Corbett, expecting some sign of approval. He toyed with bis silver, pretending to be so absorbed in aligning his knife, fork and spoon that be had neither listened nor seen. “There," she said briskly. “Thai’s taken care of. Now do let us forget the whole borrid business." "1 should very much like to." The checks looked almost normal. "But I hardly think you know what this means." The waiter set a glass of tomato juice before Corbett, without plate or ice-bowL He crowded the glass with a plate of gravydrowned ham and charred fried potatoes, a metal bread tray with two soggy rolls, a chip of halfmelted butter, a brown bottle of beer and a glass. He snatched up the order and slithered away. Corbett heard Kalchis say: "You know what that looks like? Like a mess," but he didn’t look up or reply. The horseplayer was right The food looked disgusting. Corbett drained hto tomato juice, broke a roil, smeared on the butter, poured out his beer. The woman was talking to the old man, gently, patiently, almost caressingly. "Really, Mr. Voorhees, you must not let yourself become so upset It’s horrid, I know. One must put up with these things In a war." The ham and potatoes blocked Corbett’s windpipe. Ho sputtered. The old man glared, drew his thin shoulders indignantly up, expecting apology. When there was none, he snorted, said stiffly: “I had been told of these things. I had been told they were happening. It’s the first time they have happened to me. Why, do you know—" He picked up his water glass, grimaced at the chunk of slimy, rootfleckcd ice, set it down. "Tvs not been on a train In at least 20 years." “Mister, you too,” Corbett thought “You don’t know how we’ve missed you." “Each year I’ve gone down to Palm Beach, we have driven. They forced mo to leave my car there this time. No gasoline. I know what they’re up to. They're determined to take our comforts away, one by one. To humbio us, make us subservient to their every whim, get us ready for . . ." The woman broke in: "It’s so hard for a man of your years to travel by train." There was a bridling, perhaps at her mention of age. "You might have thought when they deprived me of the use of my car, they'd provide something else. Suitable transport They told me I ought to consider myself most fortunate to get one lower berth." She bent forward, her blue eyes bulging slightly, “Oh, but you are! Why, I have an upper. Just fancy, an upper." The old man looked down at his fingertips thoughtfully, “I’d offer to change—" Her hand went over the tablecloth quickly to touch the heck at his hand. *Td never accept It You just must not think because 1 find it so hard togrt usrfto your sleeping cars—this intimate contact with aU sort of strong. «»-" She darted a look across

He said the gravest crisis now exists In the old world, where about 400,000 tons of foodstuff pre needed monthly until Un September crops come In. Hoover was the guest of tb< Cuban republic at a dinner in ih><

the table at Kalchis. His bold pupils stared back. Her shoulders bunched forward. "One never knows who—" Her voice trailed off. The waiter set down the horseplayer's lunch. The bld man looked up, half-timid, half-defiant tapped on bis water glass. “Bring me fresh water. No lea." You got the sense from bls tone that It wai one final stand, one last test of the virility of bis petty authority. “Yours, too, Mrs. Forsythe?” She said "No, thank you” and sipped at her goblet “I have learned to enjoy your American ice water. 1 used to think it was a barbarous custom. But one comes to accept—" Corbett pushed back at his plate. “Lady," he thought "if you come from the same place as your accent you’ve got a crust being snooty about one single thing over here." The waiter set down two cups of bouillon, removing the scabrous tin lids. The soup splashed over the rims of the cups into Mucere. He put down two chicken sandwiches, charred on the outside, depressed in the centers, whisked off Corbett’s plate, slid down a brick of strawberry and vanilla ice cream and orange lea, Corbett hacked with his spoon. The old man said, ovaeddarooup cup: "But you are going back?" She smiled at him ruefully over a spoonful at coup, tasted It, reached for the pepper and salt. "But of course. I must” The switch-off was startling. When you eavesdropped on trains, you had to guess the beginnings, the backgrounds, the ends of whatever you heard. Mrs. Forsythe was sipping soup daintily, talking between spoonfuls. “Rodney’s sister wrote me the letter , . < Oh, he wouldn’t himself . . , He never could bring himself to compel ma. He’s always been so considerate of me , . , That’s why I left when I did. The my friends- they have a MOST charming house at the Gables—aren’t leaving till well Into April They BEGGED me to stay ...

She waited until she had reached the bottom of her cup. Then, after a nervous clearing of throat, she replied: “But of course. Except that It’s hard to be sure how much you miss someone whom you haven’t seen in four years." "Four years!- The old man’s white store teeth crunched his toast.
