It should be another good year What can we do to make thia a better community In which to live? —o—o— Packinghouse workers have ser ved a two-weeks notice that they will strike. That's no way to observe Thanksgiving season. o o It looks like that twenty-seven million dollar highway proposal for Fort Wayne may become the issue in next year’s mayorality campaign. It's a great country after all It's only a week since election and already the country has settled down and the leaders are planning for 1948. o—o— Prices are going up on many items as was surely expected if and when ceilings were abandoned. Evidently many believe that's what the people wanted and voted for. o-— 0 Soap prices are to be boosted fifty per cent in price and It won't help the supply, according to manufacturers: That's surely not a part of the cooperation promised for the good of the country. o 0 The anti-war law might make some of the world leaders stop and think about what will happen to them if they start another aggressive campaign. It ought to be worth a trial any way. o 0 As long as this country has a two-party system we need not fear the results. If the voters don’t like the work of the Republicans in congress the next two years, they will say so when they go to the polls In 1948. o 0 Being a general in the army is now definitely hazardous. War department figures reveal that the United States lost ninety-two generals during the war and that nineteen were taken prisoner. Most of the deaths occurred in or as a result of battles.

Facts on High Blood Pressure

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D. THE best thing we know about high blood pressure today is that one doesn’t have to die of ft. In fact, according to Dr. Albert Weinstein of Tennessee, the mere finding that a patient has high blood pressure does not mean that his life will shortened Many, many such people can look forward not only to the normal span of life but can, with slight restrictions, enjoy It in the normal way. Barring accidents, the person with high blood pressure can usually be expected to live at least the calculated average life span of 65 years. In the years since the turn of the century, when it first became possible to make accurate mens urements of blood pressure, we have learned a great deal about the problem of high blood pressure and yet its exact cause still remains a mystery’. ... Those Who Are Overweight .... We know that it has a tendency to run in families, and that it , apparently occurs more often in those who are overweight than in those who ere normal or underweight. There are certain diseases which seem to cause high blood pressure hut. In the great majority of cases—9s percent—there seems to be no discoverable cause for the condition. This type of high blood pressure u known as essential hypertension.

Local stores are well stocked with many attractive and useful gifts for your dear ones for Christmas. Additional shipments will be difficult to obta|n so the wise buyer will shop early to get what they want and save money. ——o 0— A few years like this one will bring suipluses In farm products. The agricultural department estimates this season corn crop at 3,381,000,000 bushels, an increase of nearly five million bushels over the estimate of a month ago. o o Times may tighten up some the next few months but it Is tot believed there will be a depression like that of the thirties. Banks are safe, business concerns have surplus cash, people generally have savings. We look for a little lull and then an era of unprecedented prosperity. o o Congressman Martin who will be the speaker of the new house v/hen congress convenes says a twenty per cent reduction in taxes will be made next year and that government expenditure will lie reduced. Sounds good but the tax saving won't be effective until 1948. —o —o— » The United States will make a disarmament proposal at the United Nations general assembly at Lake Success, N. Y. in a few days. If it can be agreed to and carried out, the world will be happy but If only a part of the world observes it we will be right back whore we started from in the early twenties. o 0 The Decatur plant of General Electric will hold open house next Thursday from one o'clock to seven p. m. Mr. M. E. Lord, manager of the Fort Wayne works will address the Lions and Rotary clubs and a number of guests at a banquet to be served at the Knights of Pythias home at 6:30 that evening. The G. E. plant was started here In 1920 and has become a fixture, one of the beet Industries in any small town in the mid west. o—o "Standing Room Only" signs in effect have been put up in Bloomington churches. Built to serve normal community and students attendance, churches in the section of the city near Indiana University are hard put to take care of congregations augmented by the University's fall enrollment of 13,294 students, almost double the pre war student body. The First Methodist Church holds three Sunday morning services, the St. Charles Catholic Church has added several masses, and at others seats are assured only for those who come early.

In view of the fact that the exact cause of all cases of high blood pressure has not been found, It in to be expected that a variety of treatments should be employed for It. Among these treatments are the use of such preparations as potassium thiocyanate, phenobarbital. which is a seratlve or quieting drug, and large doses of vitamins A and C. Potassium thiocyanate does help to lower the blood pressure, but Its use must be carefully supervised by the doctor. It often causes a feeling of depression and exhaustion and there may be certain severe complications. Dose of Vitamins l-arge doses of vitamins A and C have also been employed and seem to give results in certain cases. However, in other instances, their use has not been productive of any benefits. Dr. Weinstein believes that the best form of treatment is to have the patient develop sensible habits of living and working, to be moderate in all things, to limit the use of tobacco when it Is found that it does raise the blood pressure. He advises against taking the blood pressure too often and against fixing in the patient's mind that his blood pressure is so many points above normal. A weil*alanced. moderate diet should bo employed, and a* effort made to bring the patient's weight to a normal level.
