Glandular Fever Is Puzzling And May Mirriie-Oiher Disease

! By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. I * . SWOLLEN glands in the nesk 1 ; are often a cause of alarm to 1 people who think they may e f a sign of the mumps. But on examination, a physician often finds that the person has whaOTs ' called glandular fever. This c<s i- 1 * dition is known as infectious : < mononucleosis and is more prevalent than previously thought; " - This is a common infections disease v that occurs usually young adulta and children. Ofie , -I- of my own youngsters had it riot so long ago. The exact cause Is not as yet known; . is bejieved to be caused by .-a virus, and only too often, it resembles a number of otlrer _ -diseases. May Take a Month In my own youngster, it started In less than a week after an exposure to the infection in a playmate. However, it may takt*<a month in some cases before ; person really feels ill. usually, the disease starts with a high fever—from 101 to 104 fhp grees—which may last for as w long as a week or two. The person Often complains of headache ipd chills and may sweat and <ebl dizzy when he has fever. When this disease occurs? |n • epidemics, and, it often does.f a number of the patients may riot I have any lever at all. i'i Glands Enlarged Usually the lymph glands "become enlarged early in the disease. The glands In the neck are most often affected. j * la. most cases, this enlargement begins at the same time bs the fever. The lymph glands We very tender. Sometimes the neck Vi so tender that it is almost rigid, and the condition resemfiies ar spinal tevEr. .. ■ * mW;

Need Ap Ambassador: The appointment pf Charles E. Bohlen as Ambassador to Russia has been approved by the senate foreign relations conimittee. Most of the objections to Bohlen aye based on the fact , that he was a member of the diplomatic team at Yalta and was associated with the state department during the , Roosevelt adminjistrhtion. - It inust be assumed that President Eisenhower did not appoint Bohlen without examining his record and his abilities carefully. The President’s judgment is strongly supported by Secretary of State Dulles who has long been recognized as the Republican expert on foreign poliejy. t We need an ambassador in Russia to represent our interests and to make our policies known to the Russian government: President Eisenhower and Dulles both agree that thp man for thejob is Charles E. Bohlen. * _____o—o-4— Actions, Not Words:— Observers have noted .that Georgi Male’ftkov, successor to Stalin, has employed unusually soft tones in his public discussions of the relations of Russia with the rest of the world. His remarks have been free of invective against “capitalist warmongers” and “imperialists.” This almost conciliatory attitude has been reflected in ' the Communist newspapers in other of the wdrld. Malenkov may have decided that he' can best ensure his grip on power by convincing the Russian people that there will be no war. His talk of pehce may be an extension of the peace propaganda campaign which had Communists in every country circulating peace. petitions at the same tiiiie Conn munist troops in Korea practiced aggression. hr recent weeks -Comijpunist planes have fired on American 'and British planets without pro-\ vocation. The war in Korea continues. If Malenlcov is sincere in his desire to end the tension and the threat of world war let him demonstrate his good faith by matching his deeds to his words. If he does that he ban be assured that the United States will co-op-erate in establishing real 'and lasting peace.

The enlargement of the glands may last for many months and then subsides, k | No Definite Course Glandular-fever! is different from most others because it does not have any definite course. It may be gone in a few weeks or last for years, and the person may have mapy recurrences of fever and enlarged glands. People are usually weak for many months after being sick with this disease. In a few cases, severe complications of the liver or brain may occur. " Sometimes this disease mimics fatal diseases such as leukemia and Hodgkin’s disease. Not only does it mimic the external symptoms, but also the_blood condition seen in leukemia. Careful study, however, makes it possible .to make a diagnosis. \ i \ Blood Serum Test Usually a blood count is helpful In recognizing glandular fever. A definite diagnosis can be made by a simple test of the blood serum. • No definite treatment is as yet really known. However, some cases are helped by the newer antibiotics—aureomycin, chloramphenicol and terramycin—in bringing more rapid recovery. Usually, a person has to have much and should eat nourishing food ‘ until the disease subsides. Drugs prescribed by the doctor are helpful in relieving symptoms?: QUESTION AND ANSWER R. O.: My dog has Jaundice. Is it contagious, and would it cause any harmful effects on my family? ’ i Answer: There has been no evidence that jaundice or liver infection of .dogs is transferable to man. ■

SYNOPSIS Comely Miss Carol Marsden Is en route from England to Nfew York and Palm Beach to an exchange job in the ■mart Appieton apparel shops In these cities. This is the result of an award which she had won as a buyer for Felton’- Department Store of London. Her, employer, gay. young Thelma Felton and handsome bachelor Derek Appleton of the famous New York P-m accompany Card! aboard the Queen Mary. Thelma, a shameless ad. ventures®, had managed tb wangle the Felton estate from n<?r Jate doting, senile busband, so that\ now she owns the Felton store. As the ship sails, we find her in her luxurious cabin, assorting her many oon voyage floral tributes Among these she cotncs ippon an Ugly flowering cactus and . the sight of it causes her to faint in fear. , ’ CHAPTER SEVEN THE stewards moved among the passengers, quietly, efficiently: they stopped to answer questions with unfailing courtesy. There were crowds on the broad glassedin decks, in the lounges, before the Purser’s bureau, crowds everywhere. ' \ : There was a grey haze over the\ English landscape; the water of The Solent was grey too. Despite the air of bustle arid excitement/ Carol suddenly felt depressed with- ‘ out knowing why. Maybe it was leaving England. She’d hever been , away from home before, and yet she nad nd real home apart from her flat. She had lost her mother, her father, and . her only sister one night when a buzz bomb fellin Fulham. Her only other relatives, two maiden aunts, lived in the North. i They were passing the Isle of Wight, so close she could make out figures on the shore. Derek’s voice said behind her: "That’s a wonderful place, the Isle of Wight. 1 went to Cowes for the yacht racing year before last. It was an exciting, week." She half-turned her head and sftuled. “I’ve never been there, but I've wanted to go. But\then," she laughed, “I’ve wanted to go ‘most everywhere. All , the travel I’ve eVer done has been in the pages Os magazines.” “But,, you’re going places now," he said, wedging hts way in beside her along the rail. “I’m longing to show you New York and Florida. The Sunshine State, they call it. It’s got everything—climate, beaches, the best fishing,, luxury hotels, race tracks, and,\ tn the center, around Lake Okeechobee, we have some of the finest cattle ranches tn the country, ft you’re interested in cowboys, you'll 'wee them there." He grinned slightly. "And farther south; tn the Everglades, you’ll see real crocodiles and flamingoes.” J "It sounds thrilling.' But,” she smiled, "I'm going over to work.” He'laughed. "We shan't work ybu too hard. When Dad started this exchange idea with Felton’s, ills main notion was to give some English girl a chance otseeing the States and then going back

We don’t know each other well enough Under the surfac& we re all much the same.

She had been in love once. ,He nad gone to Nairobi to make living and a home for both of theirt, and nad been killed on an elephant safari. She had i grieved, but three years had ' passed, ,1 the only man since who had somehow got involved with her empfional life was Jason Felton, arid their relationship had been mhinly business. Now she felt her heart lift with a new hope and. a new inner emotional excitement. It seemed ridiculous to think that Derek |\ppieton might like her in a serious way, and yet something told hejihe might. “I’m so glad it was you who won the Awpf.d,” he said,' in that same soft, sincere voice. "Looking after you won't be just a business chore. I knoWi;Wfe're going to be friends." 1 H?r 4olor heightened: her hands. tightened 1 about the railing. That vague 46he of homesickness she’d been conscious of as she’fl watched tiie shoyts of her homeland disap-, pear left her.

Stale To Continue In Penal Industry No Intent To Cut Penal Production INDIANAPOLIS UP — The state has no intention of curtailing its 13,500,000 yeayly penal industry id line with a campaign statement by Governor Craig, it was repealed today. Craig, in his campaign, pledged that prison-made products would not be qsed 1n competition with private ipdustry. State officials at a news conference Qualified that statement to mean prison would not be sold to individuals or on the open market. The question Kas raised when it was- revealed the state department df public works and supply offered- to sell Indianapolis 2,600 street signs manufactured by inmates of state prison.’ “This in no way contravenes Governor Craig’s campaign promise,” said Hugh O’Brien of tbe state clemency commission, He cited a state law which requires the state or its subdivisions to clear with the state first in the purchase of supples. \ i John Cartwright, director of the works and supply department, said he “intends to operate my department according to law.” He said the governor probably meant that the state would not sell prisonmade goods to individuals or on the open market. If the state could not * sell to Us own: subdivisions, it would have no outlets for goods in taxsupported institutions, Cartwright said. He added that as far as he knew, the only state product in recen'i competition with private industry under the law was hickory furniture—a relatively minor item pow discontinued. O’Brien also announced plans for a survey of present penal industries with an eye toward realignment of production. For instance, he said the institutions might try to get contracts for he, manufacure of school desks to implement the state school building progrm. Also planned is a more extensp’e conservation program using pehal , labor and JaciHties. O’Brien said plans call for establishment of game fariqs and fish hatcheries and! the use of prison trusties in seeding woodlots and outdoor work of that nature. An attempt also will be made to brin|g prison machinery up to date to help teach inmates a vocation as part of their rehabilitation training. ) r Cartwright said the profit on prison manufacture is very low. He said all proceeds from pale of prison-made items revert to the state general fund.
