Better Insulin Being Tested

By HERMAN N- BUNDESEN, M.D. 1 THE conquest of diabetes is 1 just ohe of the many wonders of modern medicine. Researchers ' are now' busy developing riew ‘ types of insulin requiring only I a single injection a day instead 1 of several a day. \ ' ! At one time, a diabetic person was doomed to a Ufe, with complications such as gangrene of the legs, comm and susceptibility to infection. , With the discovery of Insulin some years ago, many \ strides . were made 7 towards regulating the amount of sugar in tbe blood rOf thei person with diabetes. Insulin is needed so that the body can use sugar. I First type The so-called regular Insulin was the first type discovered. Its action was extremely short, and several t injections had to be taken daily if .it was to work well in a severe fcasp. .A| newer ilnsulin was then developed, ! known as protamine ?inc iJhsttlin. This acted over a longer period, but it, too, failed in a Certain * number of cas?s.; Various combinations of protamine zinc insulin and regular Insulin were also used for an improved effect, when needed. Another type of insulin, knoy?n as NPH insulin, was also developed Search Went On However, there remained some persons who could not be maintained on any of these preparations. so the search for a newer Insulin went on; For any diabetic person, it is desirable to cut down the number of injections to one a day. This . 1

i The compiling of the unified , military supply catalog started i last year and congress has been informed (that the task will not be ; completed until 1955/ The govern- ' , meat might save time by calling in ' 4 a few of the experts .who Compile I the seed and mail-order catalogs, • or adopt a loose leaf filing sysi tern on. the tend of thofcsinds of items purchased by the defense department. o--o— I ; j Indiana will hive a presidential preference primary election in 1956, Gov. Craig having signed the law phased b a the legislature. If the primary contest to name party standard bearers follows the state's former experience in this ■ field of political jockeying, is likely that "favo -ite sop” ,;candi.dates placed on the ticket. A move of this sort in Republican rapks could be interpreted; that party leaders would oppose the renomination :of President Eisenhower, The Democrats would have to center on a favorite son.! - ■ ■ ’ ' --*-o—o •' ;■ Gen. Vassily dhuikov, the Russian commander in gave an apt example how easily problems can x be solved. He was riding along \ a highway toward Berlin and noticed the line-up of trucks which awaited thorough inspection by Soviet troops. He .ordered the highway .cleared immediately and as soon as the truck drivers could show / their papers,; the trucks were on their way. The ■blockade was solved, frhis Russian general plight try\his authority at ending the Korean war Or in ordering the Red MIG fliers to “stay at home”. ; ; The 65-mile an hour speed limit Ikw has been' signed {by the governor. State authorities say it! will be enforced, p reservation the law permitting a motorist to exceed the limit’if he can prove shat it wps “reasonable and prduent” to drive faster. There may be times when a car under control can;eat up mileage at a higher speed, but in most cases a mi|e-a-niinute gait be considered a little less reckless. All of our highways are not built for 75 tq! 80 imles an hour travel. We should endeavor to lessen the terrible itqll I of life on ouf highways au{l if a speed limit accomplishes th|at gcpil, then enforcement of (die ■• a ■ • ■ ; -jaw should be universal.

required careful timing of the 1 preparation used. It was found that when insulin is combined wiith a small amount of;tine, it has a prolonged effect. With certain diabetics who had to take several injections dally of the older types of insulin, and who had extremely severe diabetes,; this zinc insulin has proved almost miraculous. |\ Still Experimental The new treatment, though still in tne experimental stages, .was recently usCd on 65 patients witp severe diabetes. All these persons had found other of insulin unsatisfactory, but all did. well on zinc insulin preparations given once a day. | Three different typos of the zinc insulin were developed ; to take care of different types of diabetes that were hard sto control. \ Another milestone in treating diabetes is in sight, with a better insdlin for patients who have difficult diabetes, making less frequent injections necessary.: i QUESTION AND ANSWER; N. U.: I have heard that there is a new treatment for alcqhqlism- that causes an alcoholic to be: very sick fizhen he drinks It. Where can qne redbive such treatment? Answer: Antabuse, a drug being used treat alcoholism, makes a person who drinks alcohol sick when he takes any alcoholic bevefage. However, this drug cap be dangerous aqd should be given only uhder the careful guidance of a physician. Usually the emotional .problem causing the ajcohplism has to, be solved while the treatment <ls being given.. ;

SYNUVSIS Felton's Department Store of London. England, is about to issue its annual employe award, comprising;’ an exchange job at Appleton s smart New York shop and a trip to Pahn Beach. Fla., in season. When Miss Carol Marsden of sportswear da sutfunoned to the office of the manager. MF. Donald Haskin, she is naturally excited. Her thoughts fly to lovable Jason Felton who had been managing th*; Store but who had been Bred from that job following the death of his elderly uncle, founder of this business. Informed by Mr. Haskin that she has been voted winner ot the Felton Award; Carol of course is' pleased. Mrs. Thel,rtia Felton, pretty young widow of the senior Felton, arrives to offer congratulations. Thelma now owns the Felton Store, having inherited it under het late husband s wilt The handsome American bachelor. Derek Appleton. also |6ins tfie group. Aboard rhe Qutien Mary he will accompany "the; winner" to New York. .Suddenly Thelma dec >s tht.t she t<k>. will go alodg on the journey. ■ ! — CHAPTER FOUR THELMA must have caught the undercurrent between Haskin anil Appleton, for she turned towards turn and said almost accusingly, "Don’t you think it’s marvelous that Mr. Appleton has consented to present the\Award? After aU. ne’U be looking fter Miss Marston once she gets to the United States." She laughed again. “I really envy her. I’d love to get away myself. I adore Florida. I spent some time there—once." She paused slightly on the word, and Carol thought’ the expression on her face changed a There was a look, a rather strafige look. Carol couldn’t discern whether it was reminiscence, ■ nostalgia or—fear. "But why not come. Mrs. (Felton?" Derek said, with the same warm, sincere smile. “I can think of nothing more agreeably. Appleton’s would be tickled pink to have you visit them, and from my own personal point of view it would be swell.” : ' j ' -|- “I might take-you up on that, Mr. Appleton," Thelma said slowly. "Welli now,” he said, “why don't we arrange it at once? I have a certain pull. I’m sure I equid still get you a suite on the. Queen Mary." She gave a small gasp. "But it’s such short notice!’’ Donald Haskin cut in decisively: "Os course, it’s too, short notice. Besides, there are other factors that make the idea out of the question. Mrs. Felton. There’s this ndw merger coming up, and we shall need you here to sign the papers. Besides, you know vow difficult it would be to get an adequate! allowance from the British Treasury for such a trip.” “Don’t worry about that. Appleton’s would be delighted to guarantee all of Mrs. Felton’s expenses while she was visiting in the the American Said. He smiled again. "It would be good business, besides being a pleasure where we were concerned.” Carol was still standing in the background. She didn’t feel neglected: she was too absorbed. More than ever she was conscious of an undercurrent, a clash of Wills between Donald Haskin, and the Young Big Bosfs. At that moment, Thelma remembered bier, turned {towards her with a bright smile,

Again she felt that Donald! Haskin wouldn’t be a pleasant man to cross. She was conscious of a curious atmosphere in that; office, an atmosphere she didn't like. It had an explosive, almost: frightening quality, That night, at the staff party, Carol stood in the receiving line With Mrs. Felton. She was between Derek and Donald Haskin. She felt more embarrassed and seif* conscious than excited. She didn’t feel right either in the gown Mrs. Felton had selected for her. The billowing tulle Skirt was frilled, the iowteut taffeta bodice was shaped like* the petals of a rose, but the color was pink, and Carol, wiyjse light-brown hair inclined to red, didn't like herself in pink. Miss- Rita had set her hair in a style she didn’t particularly care for, either. Carol's hair waved naturally 'and usually she washed it under the shower and just combed it forwards, but tonight it was set in deep waves and back from her face. j ' j ; But it wasn’t only her new appearance that was |upsetting Carol; it was the changed attitude of certain of tierfellow employes. They had all congratulated her, and with the younger members of the staff she’d felt that their Congratulations were sincere, but with some of the others, thdse who felt they should have won the Award themselves, she’d been aware of barely hidden antagonism. She should have been amused, she told herself', but she'd’ been hurt, and what was especially hurtful was the feeling that she, no longer was one of them.

Wickard submitted his resignation Mdnday as chief of the rural electrification administration. He declined to say whether he was fired, as some congressmen charges. ‘ B.ut he told a reporter. “I think you understand the new administration's wish to have its own men in office.” And he thought it w-ould be good “to get back to the farm.” Wickard’s term in tfie $15,000-a---year post still had three years to run. His successor has not yet been named.) | The 60-year-old Wickard, who was the bnly secretary to step down to a lesser i deartment post, said he resigned because he “didn’t see any use in waiting.” - Sen. Lister Hill (D-Ala.) promptly charged that Wickardls resignation Was "forced" and said he hoped it will “not be follow’ed by acts that will hamstring and be harmful to REA.” ‘ ‘ I . Sen. Estes Kefauver (D ; Tennj.) joined Jthe protest with a demand that the public be told why Wickhrd was ousted. Wickard took over REA—which approved $235,215,000 in rural elec--trie and telephone loans last year J -in 1945 when President Truman named Sen. Clinton P. Anderson to the top department post.
