SKIPPING NEAR CAN KEEP GOING

Cardiac Disease Not Always Necessarily Fatal, Say Doctors.

CHICAGO, Aug. 28 (U. P). — A long life of normal—although not strenuous—pursuits is possible for a person afflicted with heart disease, according to an article by Dr. Louis F. Bishop Jr.. and Ruth V. Bennett, both of New York, in the September issue of the magazine Hygeia. The authors of the article cited cases of patients who lived 30 years with heart disease. “The human heart can seem to leak, to leap. to palpitate,” the article said. “Hearts can hop, skip and jump and yet life goes op. “A man may have a recognized disease of the heart for 30 years. live a comparatively comfortable life, be of service to his family and his country and in the end succumb to an infection of his big toe.” The article said that auricular fibrillation, a cardiac irregularity which may come from some form of heart muscle weakness, was a type of heart disease that some patients had for 20 to 30 years. It said. how-

ever, that thyroid, or goiter heart required early diagnosis. The article cited cases of persons | 93 and 89 years old who had high blood pressure for many years, yet managed to live a fairly normal life “A happy life of three score years and ten—and then some—can be attained if the days of such cardiac ‘risks’ are marked by moderation,” it said.

WIN APPROVAL

Senate Group Also Favors Payroll Tax Increase To 6 Per Cent.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28 (U. P). —The special Senate committee on old age pensions today recommended drastic changes in the present old-age insurance system to provide minimum pensions of $30 a month to all citizens over 60 years of age,

E | who are not gainfully employed.

The committee, headed by Senator Sheridan Downey (D. Cal), proposed that the present employeremployee payroll tax be increased to 6 per cent to finance its plan which, it was estimated, would cost $3,240,000,000 annually. The committee's proposals were made in a majority report to the Senate which was signed by Senators Downey, Claude Pepper (D. Fla.), Robert M. La Follette (Prog. Wis.), and John Thomas (R. Ida.).

Opposed by Green

Senator Thomas F. Green (D. R.| I) filed a minority report contend- | ing that expenditure of “additional

huge sums seems unreasonable at the present time.” He said it would be a deterrent to the Government's attempt to prevent “disastrous inflation” to increase pension expenditures from the present level of $220,000,000 to $3,240,000,000 annually. The majority would broaden the present pension system by including virtually all categories of workers now excluded from participation —self-employed persons, farmers and farm workers, and Federal, State and municipal employees. It would also make pensions payable five years in advance of the presently scheduled time and allow the $30 minimum monthly payment to everyone, regardless of the size of previous earnings. The pension in the present system varies with the amount of earnings prior to the beginning of pension payments.

100-Billion Income Seen

The committee's plan calls for general pensions of $20 per month to be paid beginning July 1, 1942, and to be increased to $30 a month after Jan. 1, 1943. The committee based its recommendations on the prospects of a

NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—One American business is doing so well this year that it’s not merely booming. It’s boom-booming. From Coney Island to Venice, Cal, Dicks and their dates are rolling out the barrels and aiming to give the nation’s 3500 shooting galleries their best year since the days of the last World War. George A. Hamid, carnival impressario and president of the American Recreational Equipment Association, estimates that the business at these foreshortened ranges has this year increased from 50 to 300 per cent—depending on nearness to Army cantonments.

"THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES . Business Booming in footing Galleries

But the Army boys aren’t the only ones who are finding* the galleries to be bang-up entertainment. The girl friend, too, is learning to be at home on the range. Time was when a girl with a gun was bound to be the butt of many a gag. But no longer. The Girl He Left Behind is rifling her piggy bank so she can practice shooting. And many a Selectee Sam, home on fourlough, is chagrined to find that the One-and-Only has changed her brand of powder and can ring the swinging bell twice to his every once. One result of this national gallop to the galleries is a scarcity

of clay pigeons—the serviceman'’s favorite target.

Even the shills (theyre the “come-on” lads employed by the galleriies) are forced to pay for their shells. To date there seems to be no shortage of the shells themselves— perhaps because Uncle Sam believes it’s worth whatever powder it takes to make a nation of William and Wilhelmina Tells. But many an operator today expects dat ol’ debbil Priorities soon to start muzzling production of 22shorts. In tune with the times, some new targets are gaining popularity fast this year. Paper parachutists who float down from the ceiling are being thoroughly riddled. Some operators have replaced their swimming ducks with miniature water-going tanks.
