With final figures coming up this week, the Daily Democrat’s paid circulation total will show a substantial increase over a year ago. Largely confined to the local trading area, one day’s circulation of the home paper is equal to nearly 17,000 readers. '• » ——q. -_o --- Prime Minister Nehru indicates that be stands solidly behind a bill granting absolute equality to women in India. Under provisions of Hindu law which have prevailed for nearly 5,000 years, women hare been kept in a subordinate position. The new law would grant women the right to 1 seek divorce. It would establish monogamy and put an end to the harems which some of the more wealthy Indians still maintain. It would permit women to inherit property and. to share tn the estates fathers. The first step up a free country is realization that freedom is the inherent right of al. Equality before the law is one of the main tenents of democracy. 4. Q O t Possibly the only change, or t ■ amendment to the law permitting public inspection of welfare department records, now.\being considered by the Indiana legislature, will be the extension of the effective date of the law. Representative' G. Remy Bierly from this city, although a s member of the minority party in the state assembly, recommends that the date should be extended to about February 10, 1953, for reason that the legislature will be in session at that time and further action could be taken diiring the 'regular course of business. So far, the' standpatters, are against,- any change, but they still haven’t found any way for Indiana to recoup the $20,000,000 which* the; state facet .to lose because, of the 1951 law.

Tumor Yhat Can Cause High Blood Pressure

IT is estimated that a ■ good many people in the United States succumb each year to a type of readily curable if the diagnosis is readily curabel if’ the diagnosis is made early and prompt treatment given. The caasej of this s type of high blood pressure is > a noncaneferous tumor, known as pheochromocytoma which produced adrenalin or iadrenaiin-like substances. When these are poured into the blood stream by the body, they ftct to increase the hearty rate and to \elevate the blood pressure. When the release J of these stimulants occurs at a uniform rate, the 'patient has a constant high blood pressure which cannot bte told, from the usual forms of this dis? order. Fortunately, however, such tumors ordinarily yield adrenalin only at intervals and the patient presents a characteristic picture of sudden hypertension, which lasts a relatively short time before it disappears to recur at some later date. , High blood pressure at aqy age should always '.make one think of pheochromocytOtnri. About SB per 4 cent of these tumors are found in the adrenal glands; the others are located along the sympathetic nervous system of the abdomen. The most prominerft symptoms they cause are a •sudden onset of headache. heart consciousness, weakness, pain, and oppression under the breast' bone, accompanied by nausea and vomiting. Between attacks, no symptoms ■re present. Sometimes, varying the posture may bring on attacks.

An Enlarged Church:— The dedicat'->n of an addition to the Zion Evangelical and Reformed church, at service® Sunday afternoon, again attests to (the growing church-body and spiritual life of our city. ; > The $50,000 one-story building, which later it is planned, will support a second floor, includes a commodious Sunday school ioom, embracing a nursery and beginners* room quarters for the primary and junior groups of the church. The remodeling and building program incorporates installation of a beautiful new chancel and other interior in the nave and entrances to the main building. Although not bne of the oldest congregations 'in the city, the ZiOn Evangelical and Reformed chtirch is within the shadow of a century of existence in the city. Established here in November, 1861, it first occupied like all of our churches; a frame building, which in 1924 gave way to the dignified and inspiring edifice at the northwest corner of Jackson and Third streets. Two divine services will mark the dedication observance Sunday. At ten o’clock in the morning a Service of Praise will be conducted and at two-thirty o'clock in the afternoon the formal Dedicatory Service will be held. Dr.\ John C. Gieser, pastdr of Grace Evangelical and Reformed church, Milwaukee, Wis., will be guest speaker for the day. The addition of the Sunday School wing is significant of the emphasis that the church places on the child andJhe importance of rearing youth in the word‘of the Lord. 4 ' Members df Zion Evangelical and Reformed church have not only built a finer and more impressive House of Worship, but through the years have contributed their share in general community development. To the Reverend William C. Feller, pastor since 1943, sincere worker and spiritual leader of the congregation and to all his faithful flock, We ; extend congratulations on their reaching of another milestone in the spiritual life of. our community.

During an attack, the patient is pale and alarmed; the skin is cold and moist; the pupils are dilated and the pulse is pounding. The physician may be able to feel a tumor in the abdomen, and the examination of this tumor may cause-an attack. It has been found that giving Injections of a substance known as benzodioxane into a Vein will put an end to the attack. This finding helps to substantiate final diagnosis.,; ; Removal'Of the tumor will cpre this form of; high blod pressure. Sometimes X-ray, with the injectlon of air into the abdominal 'cavity, “may also help make* the s ~ It is believed that early discovery of these tumors may save the lives of numerous individuals who are believed to have high blood presure due to unknown causes. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS M.M.: Can you please tell me something about sprue, its cause and treatment? Answer:, Persons afflicted with sprue suffer from loss of appetite, sore tongue, pallor, tiredness, and some loss of Weight but its most characteristic sign is? often unnoticed. This is the presence of amounts of fat in the bowel movements. n Exactly what 1 causes sprue is not known, but its victims are unable to absorb or use fats, and the unused material is excreted in the stools 4 Recently, it has. been discovered that treatment with' folic acid, given either by mouth or by injection into a muscle, brought about effective results.

" CHAPTER TWENTY-SEX . RAMSAY IGLEHART crossed his plump legs, i Everything tn this office, Harrison Blayde thought, looked neat like Ramsay. Harrison felt uncomfortable, sunk between huge arms of leather. Ramsay was obviously reading every line of the paper before him slowly and scrutinizing every letter of the fine print. Silence had pervaded the office so long that Harrison Could hear the ticking of his. watch. Finally Ramsay spoke. “Top appear to the legal eye to be in the middle of a mess, Harrison,” he said. ' "This —" he held up the paper—"we can hope that your liability insurance will cover. Most of the damage was to your own car, as I understand the case. The truck was only superficially damaged—paint and one bent fender. Os course the driver might file a separate suit. They're inclined to do that if they think they can collect —nervous shock and that soil of thing. But a truck driver might not get by with it. If Anne had hit some woman now—they’re always vindictive customers and sue at the drop of a hat. Have you talked to the fellow?” "Not yet. I wanted your advice first." “You’ve got in touch with your insurance representative of course?” j , "No, I haven’t I came to you the first thing." "Always get in touch with them immediately. Delay puts them at a disadvantage. Witnesses disappear, people trump up claims. I suppose they nave Anne charged with some traffic violation or other. We can't do anything about that. It wouldn’t do any good at all to see Mac Fowler. He wouldn’t fix a charge against his own daughter. He built up that reputation for being tough and he has to live up to it.” “Well, Anne did make a sharp left turn without signaling and caused an accident. She c|n*t appear in court of course. All we can do is pay off and take what comes." ’ i "She’s still in the hospital?" “We’re bringing her home tomorrow, but she’s in a cast and has: some bad bruises, so she’ll be in bed for a week or two." * “You have seventeen more days on this breach of contract suit. Time enough to settle it out of court. My advice to you would be to do that, Harrison. You never know what a jury will do when it comes to awarding damages against a large concern like the Eflaydo Lumber Company."

"I tried settling it out of* court.” Harrison sagged deeper in his chair. He felt very old this morning. He looked gloomy. "I know. What I want is for you to figure some way out for me, Ramsay, some way short of bankruptcy. My business is sound. I retrenched when things began to tighten up. I sold my house and lifted part of my paper out of the banks, I'm still doing Some retail business, ropfing, repairs, paint and stuff like that, but the contractors are at a standstill, and some of'them are even pulling out for Texas os some place where there’s still business ahead, with winter right on us." ; \ , j "How much money do you actually have, Harrison? Liquid; I mean—" . . : "In a pinch I could scratch up about five thousand dollars. That doesn’t include the reserve I have to carry on the business, which I wouldn’t touch unless the situation got really desperate." 1 "A judgment against you running up into big money could be a bit desperate,” Ramsay reminded him. "How much could you borrow against the business —or have you already exhausted your line of credit?” "No. 1 cleared ‘up a lot df my paper, but I still owe something like ten thousand dollars." I "From what you tell me, Harrison, these sawmill men have only one chance to collect from you—that would be to attach the whole concern and liquidate till they satisfy any judgment the court might give them. 1 suppose you’ve got a heavy inventory." "I have. Too heavy. And practically every retail material business in town is in the same shape. There's mighty little chance for reducing inventory this winter. If I Can’t do it, I don’t see hovi they could.” “They can dicker it out to4dealers in other places. I assume that you came here with the id|a of retaining me as your attorney. In that event you’ll be guided By my counsel?" \ .<•• “That was my idea. I can give you a retainer fee now.” Harrison took out his checkbook. “Give me an idea how much. i." “Make it for two hundred. I’ll see what I can do . with these people. They have a good case of course, and unless we can stall them off, convince them that, their chance to collect is slim unless they give you time, and that your defense will be bankruptcy if they' push you too hard, they may get somewhere," '

• Harnson looked sick. "You’ve 3 got to save me from taking bank--3 ruptcy, Ramsay. That was my father’s business out there. Some of . these men have been working in a the yard since I was a kid. I was , a foot I made a lot Os money for . five or six years and I thought it 1 was going to go on forever." \ "Well,” Ramsay repeated brisks ly, "I’ll do what 1 can, old man. i Can’t promise any miracles* but , if Blayde’s can be saved I’ll save r U for you. .You could sell out of ? course..." . , i "Na" Harrison spoke quickly, a "That business is for Deke. I’d - take bankruptcy before I’d sell.” t , "Maybe Deke won’t want it. Kids are funny that way. My fa- - ther slaved and saved to build up [ the farm for me. I still own it of course, but Tve never touched a > handful of the dirt since I was t sixteen years old. Is there any > chance you and Eden could come [ out to dinner any time soon?” i "Not soon—not till Anne’s better, anyway. Thank you, Ramsay.” , Harrison rode the bus back to , the plant. In the cluttered office at Blayde Lumber he pushed the papers on his desk into a heap, . glanced at the top one, noted \ that \ it was an invoice for a shipment of insulation. At least that stuff might be moved out, with winter , coming on. i ' • "Tell the boys to get this shipment unloaded first thing in the " morning, Miss Wilkerson," he inf structed the gray-haired book- ‘ keeper who had been in that oft flee longer than he. "We don’t ’ want any demurrage piling up on “ us now.” : "A Mr. Eliot telephoned while you were downtown. He asked if ’ you would meet him in the lobby • of the Belmont Building before ■ you go to lunch." ■ Harrison stiffened a little. “Rer mind me of It before I go, Wilky. ’ I’m going out on the yard now." "Harrison—* Miss Wilkerson ’ stopped him— "I’ve got a little ; money saved up, not a lot of ’ money..." 1 "Wilky— * Harrison grew stern r —’’you take that money and buy - yourself an annuity with it, you ! hear? \ BUy some bonds. BUy ’ something, something safe that • will take care of you when you need it." i "Yes, Harrison, I hear you. But, : after all, this business is all I J know. I’ve spent my life in it."
