DALLAS, TEXAS... Wyatt Tee Walker, the celebrated former administrative aide to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and present senior minister of the Canaan Baptist Church of New York City, will deliver the dinner address for the first Annual Foreign Mission Consultation on Labor Day in Denver. The announcement of Dr. Walker's appearance was recently made by Dr. Robert H. Wilson, corresponding secre tary of the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention of America. Dr. Walker began his illus trious career in the late 1950's as an ardent supporter of Dr. King’s Montgomery bus crusade. He organked and led Virginia in support of Dr. King; in 1958 he became a board member of the newly formed SCLC. He was King’s top aide during the most turbulent period of his work and helped to build the budget of SCLC from $57,000 to an annual budget of
nearly $1 million.

Aspirin found to cut strokes
BOSTON -
Taking four aspirin a day greatly reduces the risk of strokes in men who are in danger of having them, Cana dian researchers say. The doctors found that, when those men took the popular painkiller, the rate of stroke and death was 48 percent lower than usual. Though they cannot explain why, they found tht aspirin does not prevent strokes in women. Fighting strokes is only the latest of several newly dis covered uses for aspirin, w hich has long defied scientists abilitj to explain just why it eases minor aches and pains, reduces fever, and calms inflammation
of the joints.
Such a role for aspirin has been hinted at in recent studies but never proven. Aspirin is also under investigation as a possible preventive of heart attacks in persons who have
already had one.

Henry J.M. Barnett of the University of Western Ontario who directed the study, said a smaller dosage would probably
be just as effective.
Most persons can take aspirin safely, but it can cause irritation and bleeding in people with stomach problems especially ulcers. Some are allergic to aspirin and suffer from hives or asthma if they
take it.
Why aspirin doesn’t help women-whose risk of stroke death is 25 percent greater than men’s is perhaps the study’s biggest unanswered question. Dr. Barnett said one obvious clue may be in the bittest chemical differnece between men and women-their hormones. In rabbits, clogged arreries can be cleared somewhat in males with aspirin but not in females, he noted. Strokes occurs when the blood supply to the brain is choked off either by a sudden clot or a gradual clogging of the arteries, causing parts of the
brain to die of oxygen starvation. Aspirin apparently makes the platelets- tink disks in the blood that cause clotting so slippery that they can’t stick together. Aspirin is safer and cheaper than anticoagulant drugs, which also inhibit clotting but carry the danger of uncontrolled bleeding. Strokes are the third leading cause of death in the United States, killing one of every five persons. Nearly 2 million Americans are afflicated by strokes every year, nearly 200,000 of them dying. Many survivors are handicapped by paralysis or slurred speech. Stroke caused disability puts more people out of work than any other malady. The researchers recommended aspirin be prescribed routinely for men who have the warning signs of a stroke. Ambassador Young to be honored with SCLC ‘King’ award ATLANTA Ambassador Andrew Young, United States representative to the United Nations, will receive the Martin Luther King Jr. Award from the Southern Christian Leadership Con ference at its 21st annual convention to be held in Birmingham August 15-18. Rey. Dr. Joseph Lowery, SCLC President, in announcing the award, said, “Young has used a non violence approach to promote world wide peace." The Martin Luther King award was established by Rev. Dr. Ralph D.Abernathy after the death of Dr. King, SCLC’s founder, and first president to honor individuals who have given most to promote social change through non-violence. A former member of the U.S. Congress, Young as a longtime leader in the civil rights movement, worked closely with Dr. King during the 60s, and was a pioneer executive of the organization, which now totals 80 chapters throughout the country.
