Drug Addiction Horror Is Described By Wile

By GAY PAULEY UPI Women’s Editor PURCHASE, N.Y. (UP!) - Hollywood, which frequently dilutes the facts with too much fiction, plays it straight on one subject—the terrors of drug addiction. So says the wife of a famous sportscaster, whose husband was an addict for 16 years. Mrs. Bill Stern talked today about the “years of hell” which she. also lived as she watched her husband gradually learn to depend on narcotics. Stern, in his just - published autobiography, “The Taste of Ashes”, (Henry Holt), revealed that his addiction stemmed frtom the amputation of his left leg after an automobile accident in 1935. He said he had an overdose of morphine at the time and continued using drugs during subsequent and repeated kidney stone attacks. “The movies about addiction are all too true to life,” said Harriet Stern, in an interview. “I don’t think as a wife I would have the strength to go through what I did again.” Haa Three Children Stern has been cured for three yean now and is back in radio and television doing sports — he has shows on WNTA-TV, NBC-TV, and WOR. And once more the two-story white house set in five landscaped acres in this suburban community is a place of peace—for her and her husband and their three children—Peter, 19, a student at Yale: Mary, 15,. away at boarding school this year; and Patricia, who attends the local public school. \ 1 > Three J white toy poodles and auburn - haired Patricia romped thnhtfh the comfortably furnished house as Mrs. Stem, sitting on a papo near the swimming pool, discussed the agony of the wife which in another way matches the agony of the husband who is addicted. “The drug habit is a hard thing to talk about,” she said. “It is a terrible sickness. Worse, worse than alcoholism. “You learn to live each day as it comes, but never knowing what will happen next. Bill was in several automobile accidents. .. People who heard him on the air in the later years thought he was drunk. Only I knew.” “I Kept Praying” “Rut I knew too that one of these days BUI would say. ‘This is something only I can whip... 1 haiJeXJ* do it myself.’ I just hoped I could keep him alive until he did. He got awfully thin and run-down.

“I could give you a whole list of physicians with good reputations who treated him. All they did was shoot him full of vitamins and collect the quick buck. “AU the time I kept praying that no one important would find out. “My threatening to leave him wouldn't have helped. Bill just finally reached bottom and we both knew it was him from now on.” Stem was in and out of several hospitals before he finally voluntarily entered the Institute of Living. Hartford, Conn., for medical and psychiatric treatment. “If there is one bit of advice I would give the wife... or other relative ... of an addict it would be, ‘Commit him. Get him under good institutional care as fast as you can!” Set Public Hearing On Interest Boost INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) - The State Department of Financial Institutions today set a public hearing for Nov. 5 on a proposal to raise the interest ceiling on passbook savings from 2 to 3 per cent. The six department commissioners did not necessarily recommend that much of a raise but placed the figure in its proposal because it is the federal maximum and to give witnesses at the hearing a tangible figure to endorse or oppose. Governor Handley called the commissioners to his office about two weeks ago and expressed concern that Indiana’s interest limit on passbook savings is the lowest in the nation. Blaine Wiseman, Corydon, chairman of the department, indicated at that time that the 2 per cent maximum had prompted many depositors to withdraw their savings and take them to savings and loan associations which pay as high as per cent. Bankse are limited to three per cent by the federal reserve, Last July, the department raisd the interest ceiling on oneyear certificates from 2% to 3 per cent, A survey conducted by the department earlier this year showed that about one-third of Hoosier banks favored an increase in both passbook savings and one - year certificate rates.

Strike Slops U.S. Economic Growth WASHINGTON (UPI) — Government economists said today the steel strike stopped the nation’s overall economic growth in the past three months an<l even may have caused a small setback. They tentatively estimated that the total output of goods and services in July, August and Septem-| ber remained at the $484,500.000,-1 000 annual rate posted in the previous three months. But some late figures on inventories may show that the economy actually slid!

backwdia 'lpom Aie ‘April-May-June level. Refrain From Guessing These calculations were more pessimistic than earlier forecasts made on the assumption that the steel strike would not last more than two months. This is the 85th day of the strike. The economists refrained from guessing how the economy might perform in the last three months of this year, other than to say it definitely would forge ahead once the steel mills resumed operating. Earlier confidence that steel land steel-using industries could brisk October - November-Decem-ber activity was missing. Some officials said that if President Ei-

senlfcwer Used 2 Act to send the 500,000 striking steel workers back to work for 80 days, the overall damage would be kept down. Catch Up In 1960 Others said that even with use Others said that even with use of the Taft-Hartley law some of the lost production could not be made up until early 1960. A national production rate of 500 billion dollars a year, once considered an outside possibility for the close of this year, now appeared delayed at least until 1960. Commerce Secretary Frederick H. Muller said in a New York speech the high rate would be achieved early next year "unless

the effects of the prolonged steel strike upset the apple cart.” Some economists ■ said the 500 billiondollar rate would not be reached before March. Others pointed out that most of the production lost by the strike quickly would be made up. Many industries, especially steel and sutos, have excess capacity and can step up production for a while. Who Needs It? HARTFORD, CONN. (UPI)-One day when the temperature was soaring into the 90's, Fred Williams discovered that someone had swiped the heater from his car.
