On Listening
By Lawrence Gould
•'5v^', ___
✓
Is learning to listen worth while?
Answer: Very much so. Your sue*
cess in almost any field depends
jupon your understanding other peo
ple and the only way to do this is to
listen to what they say closely
enough so that you will grasp the
meanings which they cannot always
express clearly. (This applies par
ticularly to your children.) Again,
the surest and easiest way to make
people like you is to make them
feel that you are enough interested
in them to pay real attention while
they’re talking to you. Since they’re
almost certain to talk about them
selves, they’ll like you doubly for
listening.
Does alcohol increase blood
pressure?
Answer: No. If anything, it has the
opposite effect. “Persons with high
blood pressure need not avoid liq
uor,” says Public Affairs Pamphlet
No. 168, “Your Blood Pressure and
Your Arteries.” But as to whether
. alcohol can prevent as well as re
lieve hardening of the arteries, the
pamphlet quotes Dr. H. M. Marvin,
former president of the American
Heart Association: “Aside from...
whether it would be more desirable
to be an alcoholic or have hardening
of the arteries, some doubt has
been cast upon this belief because
most alcoholics die before the age
when arteriosclerosis usually is
found.”
Has social change affected
children?
Answer: Yes, says Professor
James H. S. Bossard of the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania. Teachers to
day are faced with several types of
problem children that were unknown
in earlier societies: for instance,
the adolescent confused by conflict
ing and inconsistent moral stand
ards: the child spoiled by coming
from too small a family; the neg
lected child of a professional wom
an; the delinquent product of a
broken home; the “up-rooted” child
whose parents are continually on
the move, and the youngster over-
stimulated by radio, movies and
television.

KEEPING HEALTHY
other Brandi of Medical Science
By Dr. James W. Barton
■ROM TIME TO TIME we see
new branches of medicine be-
raised to the standing of the
main branches, medicine and
surgery. Within the past few years,
for example, psychiatry has
reached an equal footing.
It may come as a surprise to'
learn that what is known as physi
cal medicine and rehabilitation has
now been placed among the branch
es of medicine. In the Journal of
'The American Medical Association,
3Dr. Frank H. Krusen, Mayo Clin
ic, chairman section on physical
medicine and rehabilitation, in an
address to the last session of the
American Medical Association at
San Francisco, stated: “It is with
a feeling of great pride we physi
cians who have devoted our interest
to the combined specialty of physi
cal medicine and rehabilitation
gather here for the first meetings
of this new section of the American
Medical Association.”
What is physical medicine?
Physical medicine is the nse of
the properties of light heat,
cold, water, electricity, mas
sage, manipulation, exercise
and mechanical devices for
diagnosis, for research and for
physical and occupational ther
apy and physical rehabilitation.
Rehabilitation is the use of these
methods of helping a patient to
adjust himself to Ms occupation,
perhaps learn a new occupation,
and learn despite any physical
handicaps to take Ms place as a
normal member of the community,
We can see at once that a physi
cian trained in the various branch
es of physical medicine can fit in
with the work of the physician
trained in other specialties. Dr.
Krusen points out what most physi
cians already have seen—the ex
cellent results obtained in nervous
diseases such as paralysis, in
psycMatry, where behavior is the
important consideration, and in
orthopedics where the correction of
deformities requires several of the
branches of physical medicine.

Liquefied Petroleum
Gas Popular Farm Fuel
System Gives Farmer
Independent Fuel Supply
The days of the wood stove and
coal heating of the nation’s farm
houses, brooders and barns is al
most a thing of the past. Newer,
cleaner, and more efficient meth
ods are being adopted at an un
precedented rate.
D. G. Nelson, who operates a 20-
acre poultry feed and medicine ro-
Touin
ffgpOPTEP
IN WASHINGTON
D. G. Nelson (above), cheeks
the supply level of his gas stor
age tank on his experimental
farm near Coral, 111. It sup
plies fuel for his two brood
ers, and the central plant heat
ing system of his home.
search farm near Coral, El., is an
example of what the American
farmer is doing about heating.
He found that temperature var
iances of 4 to 5 degrees in brood
er tests completely upset his experi
ments. After tests with three fuels,
he settled on liquefied petroleum
gas as the most efficient and inex
pensive for Ms particular operation.
Convinced of the fuel’s efficiency,
he installed a supply tank large
enough for house heating, water
heating and cooking. The system
also heats two 500-chick brooders.
A new 1,700-square-foot laboratory
now under construction will be con
nected to the system.
Nelson is particularly pleased
with the dependability of the sys
tem that gives him an independent
fuel supply right on the farm.
American Farmers Own
91 Billion Dollar Plant
The family economics bureau af
the Northwestern National Life In-
surance reports American farmers
now own 91 million dollars worth
of land, buildings, Tve stor’* and
equipment.
This gigantic food “factory”
turned out approximately 30 billion
dollars worth of produce in 1950,
or a third of the “plant” itself. In
1900 and even in 1910, American
agriculture produced only a sixth
of its own physical value in a year.
Even in prosperous 1929 it pro
duced a little less than one-fourth
of its “plant” value, according to
the study.
The average farm today is a
third bigger, comprising 195 acres
of land, as against an average of
146 acres in 1900 a^d 145 in 1925.
Annual net incc ie per farm has
climbed from $350 in 1900 to an
estimated $2,225 in 1950.
The American farmer has ac
complished these gains through a
900 per cent increase in Ms invest
ment in tools and machinery and by
better methods, better seed, better
livestock, and more fertilizer.
New Farm Tool
The American farmer is con
stantly in search of new ma
chinery that will do a faster
/tnd better job. Among new
tools is a one-man wire-tie
baler that handles up to 1$ tons
of hay per hour. The New Hol
land machine has a “warner”
that makes the baler engine
sputter when the wire supply
runs low; a hydraulic unit
that keeps bales uniform and
“twisters” which make two
wire ties in less than two sec
onds wMle the bale Is held un
der compression.
Growing Vegetables Pay
Gardener Big Dividends
In times like these, growing your
own vegetables can save a sur
prising amount of money. A recent
survey revealed that $5.25 invest
ed in seeds, insecticides, and plant
food will pay you back $91.02. That’s
better than 17 to one on your in
vestment The V5.25 cost figure as
sumes you have the basic tools—
garden hoe, spading fork, rake and
trowel. Also, that you spade the
plot and grow plant# from seed.
Plan Casual Suppers for Warm, Lasy Days
(Sr# Recipes Below)
Porch-Picnic Suppers
*
IT’S NOT A MINUTE too early to
start thinking of menus for picnic
type suppers because one of these
warm evenings you might just want
to pick up your
Y ^ dinner and carry
it out to the back
porch.
In fact if
you’re planning
menus some
morning and it
looks like it might be one of those
unenergetic days that will have the
starch out of you completely by
the time supper is due, plan a porch
supper.
Some main dishes and salads can
be chilling while the temperatures
climb. Another way to do it is to
have the fixings for a quick supper
right on the pantry shelf.
To make a good supper platter,
canned meats may be utilized, along
with assorted breads, mustard,
catsup and pickle relish. With v this
serve a beverage and fruit or
berries in season.
Main dish meats and hearty
salads are another good answer to
the porch supper served picnic
style. Meats like cMcken, ham or
corned beef are excellent begin
nings. Add plenty of vegetables, and
then round out the menu with rolls
heated at the last minute and a cool
dessert or cake bread in the cool
of morning.

WALTER SMEAD. WNU Correspondent
Increased Taxes Urfed /
T HE Committee for Economic De
velopment, a ‘ business organi
sation long regarded as sound and
eminently fair in its outlook on
governmental affairs, has submitted
a tax program for the congress
wMch calls for a reduction of $6
billion in the 1951-52 federal budget
and $10 billion pay-as-you-go tax
increase.
In carrying out this program the
committee makes the following rec
ommendations: (1) an additional
5 per Cent tax op taxable income
"after present exemptions and the
present tax, (2) a corporate profits
tax wMch would bring the com
bined income tax rates on profits
in excess of $25,000 to 50 per cent
as compared to the present 47 per
cent; (3) an increase in the manu
facturers excise tax on automobiles
to 20 per cent from the present 7
per cent, and on refrigerators, tele
vision sets and other consumer me
chanical durable goods to 25 per
cent from the present 10 per cent,
an increase in the present federal
excises on alcoholic beverages, to
bacco and gasoline; a new excise
of 5 per cent retail sales on items
not now subject to federal excises,
excluding food, housing, fuel utili
ties, and certain other items diffi
cult to tax. The main categories
subject to tax would be clothing
and household furnishings; (4) a
number of other tax revisions to
Increase revenue including taxa
tion on interest of future issues of
state and local securities, collec
tion at sources of individual income
tax on dividends and taxation of
cooperative businesses.
The committee stressed the
need for quick notion on tdxeo
and warned that the nation
faces a shift from a surplus In
fiscal 1951 to a deficit estimat
ed in the budget at $12 billion
In 1952.
Farai Net Income Down
As a matter of fact, all the sta
tistics, of both the departments of
labor and agriculture show that
farm net income in 1950 reached
a low of approximately $5 billion
under 1947, about a billion under
1949 and Sft billion dollars less
than 1948. The percapita income of
farmers also shows a tremendous
decrease as compared to incomes
of the city folks. In the face of
over-all increase in national in
come from $209. billion in 1949 to
$215 billion in 1950, the net farm in
come dropped to $13 billion, or a
billion dollars under 1949. A report
of Sen. Allen Ellenderis committee
on agriculture says in terms of dol
lars with a 1945 purchasing equi
valent, farmers in 1950 had a net
income of only $8.5 billion as com
pared to $12.8 billion five years
earlier. But that /ould be true, of
course, of any segment
• • •.
Farm Parity Fight Indicated
There is every indication that a
bitter struggle will be waged in
tMs congress for and against repeal
of the farm price support legisla-
lation. And strangely enough, al
though all four major farm organ
izations here in Washington oppose
it, the New York Farm Bureau
Federation recently expressed its
willingness to do away with the
program in a full page ad in the
Wall Street Journal.
The ad, however was spon
sored by the committee for eon-
stitutional government, a more
or less questionable outfit. But
the move to abolish farm rap
ports is said to be gaining ad
herents In the senate under the
theory that the price rapport
program and the parity sys
tem in some manner Is caus
ing Mgh prices and aiding in
flation.
• • •
Labor Opposes Sales Tax
Insofar as its $10 billion dollar
tax increase is concerned, the com
mittee may have hit on about the
right sum, although the President
asked for a $16 billion dollar in
crease. It is believed, however, that
the cMef executive is now recon
ciled to the fact that congress will
not take that big a chunk out of the
income at one stroke. But where
the CED is in for strong opposition
is its recommendations for a sales
tax and a tax of the patronage divi
dends of cooperatives. Labor al
ways has been traditionally op-
po ed to a sales tax in principle,
although the CED proposal exempts
food, housing, fuel, etc. And farm
organizations art equally opposed
to the tax on coops.
