DRUG ADDICTS HALF of the narcotic drug addicts released from prisons or discharged from hospitals as “rehabilitated” return to drugs the very same day they leave. Within six months. 83% ol addicts have become readdicted. Over 90% are authoritatively reported as readdicted within two years after release from institutional supervision. i Discouraging as this picture is. the battle against drug addiction goes on and calls for increasing federal concern and cooperation in the courts, the schools, and on all levels of government New York City, said to harbor almost one-half of the 50,000 narcotic addicts in the United States, has been making tireless efforts to unearth both the addicts and the pushers (peddlers) of narcotic drugs. Often the addict and the pusher are one and the same, for addicts turn to peddling dope in order to get enough money to supply themselves with drugs. Only a very small percentage of addicts are able to support their habit out of their income or capital. It is estimated that it costs about SIO,OOO a year to support the drug habft as an individual, and male addicts mainly turn to stealing to raise the money. The desperate plight of narcotic addicts is a challenge to an all-out fight by all possible means to eradicate this eviL Consider the opinions of others but form your own judgment; for better or worse, it is you who has to live with the decision.

HERLTH PSYCHLATRY pSYCHIATRY is a medical sci- * ence, just as is surgery, pediatrics or orthopedics. The concern of psychiatry is to make sick people well. It does not deal with individual organs only such as the brain, heart or stomach. but with the personality. Our personalities are manifested in the jobs we hold and how we do them: how we sleep at night; the speed at which we drive our automobiles; the way we raise our children; how we get along with our friends and acquaintances and with ourselves. The way we feel about the way we are is a matter of personality. A person who does things badly, or is chronically unhappy or unwell, should benefit to some degree from psychiatry. While we do not all have to see a psychiatrist, our lives and the lives of those around us might be enriched by psychiatric knowledge as applied to ourselves in family life, in relation to our schools, our industries and to life generally. One way‘to help the other fellow is to see that lie doesn’t have to help take care of you. It isn’t enough to ask intelligent questions: you have to listen thoughtfully to the answers.

Blauser said that. “Meeting the challenges’ of today’s fast-changing agricultural field requires greater resources, more capital and advanced technology. That’s why Spencer joined forces with Gulf Oil in 1963”. The campaign to introduce the Gulf name to the agricultural market covers the farming states from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean.

WHY MERCHANTS GET GRAY A bustling, authoritative middle- . aged housewife entered a used furniture store and asked the manager: ’That old table you have out there — how* much do you want f6r it?” The manager recalled that he had been trying to get rid of it for months, and said quickly: “I’ll tell you. Mrs. Jones, if you want that table. I’M just give it to you.” The lady nodded affirmatively, talked to the front of the store where the table stood, surveyed it a moment, lifted it to test its weight, then walked briskly to. the manager. “Listen,” she said earnestly, “will you deliver it to me at that
