Some Facts About Diabetes
Dy Herman N. Bundesen, M.O. DIABETES is a condition in which the body wastes large amount* of a substance for which many of its cells are literally starv ing. Thin substance la sugar Fall ure of the diabetic patient to nee sugar is due to lack of a secretion from the pan- reas. a gland located in the abdomen. Without thia secretion — now known as insulin -the sugar ob- : tained from digested food acciimu . lata* in the blood instead of being used to nourish the tisanes. Thl>' excess must ba eliminated through the kidneys which, in order tn ai complish thia task, increase the quantity of urine To keep up the fluid needs of the body, the thirsty patient drinks ever larger amounts of water ; Meanwhile, with the muscles cry 1 Ing out for the sugar which can-1 not be supplied because of lack' of insulin, the patient always feels hungry and the appetite is greatly Increased. Other symptoms of diabetes conaiat of the skin, weakness, nerv rusness and frequently pain in the legs. Those with diabetes are see-! ceptible to infection and often develop boils In elderly persons there Is danger of ulcers or sores on the feet and gangrene or death of the tissues In the beginning, the diabetes' may be so mild that the patient dees not notice the symptoms On the other band, the earlier diabetes is diagnwd and the iwoper treat K«Bt started.

ed Nations government in New York City Mr Truman pledged American support in any effective plan that would outlaw the atomic bomb and called on all nations to remove this terrible death dealing weapon from national thinking and military planning The Presl dent further reminded the country that the cornerstone rites were a demonstration of faith that the United Nations will succeed o Q The bitter dissention among some of the top officials of the military services, over budgets and general defense policy, has brought the suggestion that congress ought to step in and take over the task of deciding defense needs. The suggestion doubtless stems from genuine concern for the national interest, but that Is exactly what Congress ought not to do. The plain fact is that Congress is not competent to determine defense needs, and that its attempts to do so only result in a kind of publication of strategies and plans, which is potentially damaging, and in possible blun ders in decision To say this is not by any means a disparagement of Congress or of its normal duties to govern public affairs Hut Congress is composed of laymen, without any special skill in military planning except by coincidence. Congress should press for achievement of real unification. and leave the planning of strategy to those who were trained to do it. o o Visiting The U.N.: Every visitor to New York City should take advantage of his opportunity to sit in on a meeting of the United Nations at Lake Success. Out-of-town vi«ltors are advised to write the Admissions office for reservations. No pull Is necessary; first come first served is the rule The fact that 1,200,000 visitors have already been admitted to these sessions is gratifying to the delegates. In spite of all the instance* of comhativeness and lack of agreement which seem to make up the bulk of current international news, the world is progressing, however slowly, in the right direction. There, at Lake Success on Long Island, true world democracy Is being achieved. Delegates from all over the world are meeting on an equal footing to discuss their differences and to make efforts to Iron them out. And while thia goes on, any citizen of this nation or of any other may sit in on the meetings to observe and listen Outside the meeting* he may have a chance to meet and talk with delegates from bi? own country or with cutStanding workers from elsewhere. The United Nation* Organization ■ belong? to all of us.
| may be from thia condition. Simple methods are available »hereby the urine can be adequately and rapidly examined for the presence of sugar It is true that now and then a person may have diabetes without sugar showing up in the urine, and sugar in the urine may at times occur when no diabetes is present. Therefore, if diabetes Is suspected It is Important to hare a determination of the amount of sugar in the blood Diabetes is treated for the most part through diet, with injections of insulin when necessary The diet for the diabetic must be well ballanted, but the amount of starchy foods and sugars Is reduced. On the other hand, it Includes plenty I nt vegetables and fruit, tnilk. some ' meat, one egg. and one serving of ' cereal, with butter and cream. The | amounts of the latter to lie employed depend upon the patient’s weight since It Is Important for the diabetic to keep his weight at the normal levels. By the correct diet and the use of insulin when necessary, the diabetic may live a long life and. at the same time, have plenty of strength to carry out hla activities. QUESTION* AND ANSWERS FT.: I have a bad case of asth- . ma Would it be all right for me to ■ take a half hour sun-bath dally? Answer Exposure to the sunlight would probably be helpful to you. I see no danger In thia procedure if properly carried out and «M«selve tuposure avoided.
