! Overweight More Prone To nis of Middle Age

By HERMAN N. MMDtStN, M.D. THE United States is sometimes given the dubious honor of being th* moat overted nation In the world. Available records seem to Indicate that more than one* fifth of its people are overweight. It la the most common physical abnormality In our country. There am certain penalties to obesity. It to a definite social, economic and esthetic handicap, and certain physical ills also accompany too great poundage. The United Btataa, with the beet medical care in the world, ba* the highest mortality rate in the middle-aged population. The degenerative dUeaaes of middle age and later life affect a great part of our population, and obesity baa great Influence In many or the degenerative diseases. Heart disease, hardening of the arteries, high blood pressure, diabetes, gall bladder disease, and cirrhosis of the Uver are all leading auses of death in the overweight category.

Through this eection of the country, the corn was not damaged to a great extent and apparently the etalks are filled out with heavy ears j 0 0— A temporary boost of six billion in the national debt has been approved by the senate finance committee, with Sen. Byrd going along with toe idea. The adminisuation s request was for a |ls billion hike in the debt ceiling, but it appears that the treasury win be able to get along until mxt year on a smaller bond plan. M is easier to pile op debt than hold down expanses. 0 0t— Climbing Upward:— When Mount Everest was scaled successfully by an English climbing team another peak remained to challenge mountainclimbing enthusiasts. It was 28,250 foot K-2 or Mount Goodwin Ausfen. Recently a party of Italian climbers reached its peak. Although the peek Is 753 feet lower than Everest, mountain climbers considered it more difficult to scale because of toe steepness of the last part of the approach to toe tap Last year a party of Americana reached 2C.MO feet on K-2 before being forced to turn back by a blizsard. One of the group, Arthur K. Gilkey, a geologist died in the attempt. The Italian conquerors of the mountain did not escape without a casualty, one of their strongest climbers dying of pneumbnia. , Now the world's two greatest mountains have been com quered climbers will turn their attention to others which offer a challenge. It is difficult tor those of us who have never climbed mountains to understand what makes men set out on these dangerous expeditions Yet there is in these attempts something symbolic of the need man has always feR to test his strength against- nature, to look on his world from the highest point to which he can climb.

20 Years Ago **L_ August 13*—‘Record breaking heat wave is broken over the country by heavy rains. Temperatures of more than 100 dropped to below 70. Congressman James I.

Posture difficulties often develop after the thirties an reached. They may ba due to th« strain of excessive weight, and often result in a alight hunchback with some difficulty in respiration due to this deformity. The obese person who goei through with proper weight reduction may help bto heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes or other such disease. In fact, definite evidence has shown that hardening of the arteries may, to some degree, reverse itself with loss of true obesity. A longer, happier life can take the place of the ugly, excess pounds. QUESTION AND ANSWER J. F,: Can hormones help a breast cancer? Answer: It has been found that pain due to breast cancer can sometimes be relieved by the use of the male hormone, testosterone. which should be used only under a physician's dliecUow.

Japan Leader Urges Closer Ties With U.S. Rejects Policy Os Neutralism, Urges Closer U.S. Ties TOKYO (INS) Influential Japanese political leader Hayato Ikeda flatly stated his opposition today to a poltey of neutralism for Japan and said that Japanese ties with the United States should be tightened. Ikeda, secretary-general of the powerful Liberal party and close associate of premier Shigeru Yoshida. said Japan might alter its foreign policy somewhat but that its basic ties of friendship with the U.S. should remain the same. Ikeda earlier this week created a stir in foreign capitals, particularly Washington, when his remarks to Japanese newsmen were interpreted as a call for Japanese neutrality in the cold war in Asia. Ikeda told International News Service today that he thought Japan might learn much from present British policies in Asia. These policies have favored a more conciliatory approach toward the Chinese Communists than the position supported by the U.S. But Ikeda made it plain his suggestion for a new approach by Japan was tar from neutralism. Replying to a question whether Japan should adopt a neutralist policy, he said flatly. “I have never thought of supporting a policy of neutralism." Ikeda said the controversial remarks that caused such a stir abroad were meant to be off the record. He said he was just expressing his thoughts informally to Japanese newsmen and that the ideas he expressed did not represent official policy. Asked about bis reported remarks that America’s rollback policy in Asia was a failure, Ikeda said he could not comment on the success or failure of any policy by a foreign eeuntry. But he did comment on what he thought Japan’s relations with the United Statss should be. "Japan cannot relax its friendly relations with the United States,” he declared. “As a matter of fact, the ties should be much closer.” Ikeda qualified his remarks only by saying that Japan should watch and perhaps learn something from the British approach in the Far East. The political leader, a former cabinet minister, said he was opposed to establishment of diplomatic relations with the Commsnist Chinese regime, at least for the present. Peiping has stated publicly that Red China would not establish formal relations with Japan unless Japan first broke off relations with Nationalist China and ended its alliances with the United States.
