WASHINGTON — Good roads and full employment are closely linked in America’s future, ac cording to the Automobile Manu facturers Association. James J. Nance, president of ! the Association and president of , the Studebaker-Packard Corpora tion, recently testified before Con gress that the 40,000-mile Inter state Highway System must L completely modernized in the r. 10 years if the nation is to re;' - ~ its full potentialities in emr’ ment, family income and over ^economic development. \ Highway transportation 1 now employs some 10 million per* sons, Mr. Nance said. He also cited government studies showing that of the 11 million additional jobs needed in the next 10 years to serve our growing labor force; eight million must be in the serv« ice industries. “The service industries,” he ' Ted, “are capable of tremen .; future growth as our econ* y expands. But their past •.h has been directly related th of highway travel, ■ future growth depends cn a continued rise iq travel.” y Psoriasis Now Treated With Internal Medication Psoriasis, a disease which, until I the year 1801, was erroneously thought to be leprosy, has baffled medical science until the present time. Nothing was known of its ■ cause. It could sometimes be eradicated by external prepara tions made up of coal tar, mer cury and other irritants, as well as exposure to sunlight, ultra i violet lights and X-rays—but its return to piague the sufferer 'could not be controlled. Ap pearing on all areas of the skin in sizes ranging from a pin head to large patches which could cov er as much as , 98% of the skin t area, its disfig uring lesions brought untold agony and embarrassment to hundreds of thousands of people. The first clue to its cause came to light during World War 2 in Germany. The disease became so scarce in Germany during those war years, that it was difficult to find enough people with psoriasis for demonstration to medical stu dents. Coincidental with the scar city of edible fats in the diets of the German people. This clue, to gether with experimental work of Dr. Lester Dragsted of the University of Chicago in 1938 when he isolated a pancreatic hor ;mone which had beneficial effect upon the disease, led others to carry on this experimental work, Research started in the city of Waterbury, Conn., and progressed from there to further experiments by Army and Navy physicians t during World War 2. Doctors at ' the Boston Dispensary, in Boston, Mass., continued the studies which *. culminated in a medical report published in a New York state Medical Journal on July 1, 1954. This report was authored by a world famous skin specialist con nected with a leading New York City hospital and Professor of Dermatology in one of New York’s leading medical schools. He reported on a product called Lipan, which is taken internally in capsule form. Lipan supplies the pancreatic hormones and en zymes which are necessary to as sist one suffering from psoriasis to properly digest and assimulate all foods consumed, but princi pally fats. For this reason, diet is not restricted. In fact, the re port states fats should be con sumed because they are necessary to properly lubricate the skin. Not only was the doctor successful in clearing the skin with Lipan but, having once cleared the skin, Lipan should be continued since the necessity for complete diges tion of all foods and fats is a continuing one. A copy of that medical journal reprint for your physician can be obtained by writing to: Spirt & Co., Inc., of Waterbury, Conn.

Suddenly, however, I gathered a little more ammuni tion and blazed I j away with "And another thing ... if you were around sometime you’d notice that our lawn is a picnic ground for ®very bug in the county. But I’ll bet there isn’t a single bug or worm on your entire precious golf greens. “Of course not,” roared Jeff. “The manager has the good sense to use an insecticide that the finest golf courses and parks in the coun try use; for that matter, countries all over the world have used it in public health works. And further-' more..." Then and there I called for a truce. I figured I was losing ground oft the golf questions anyway and might as well turn the conversa tion to something more useful. I certainly did! It developed that the insecticide Jeff mentioned is diel drin, one of the the most powerful and effective known today. For out door use in granular form on farms or parks or home gardens, one treatment can control soil pests for years. ___ _—' I really perked up my ears, how-' ever, when Jeff went on to say that dieldrin in spray form is effective and easy to use indoors. I had about been convinced that modem day insects simply grew fat and sassy on any preparation' man devised. But after a spraying in favorite hiding places, follow ing Jeff’s tip, there hasn’t been a single sign of a pest, fat or other wise.. And woe be to an ant, roach, tick, silverfish or what have you that dares poke his head around these parts again. Learned another lesson, too!

But what about your ability to drive—to handle a car safely? Traffic accidents are zooming and the public is aroused. Public offi cials are grim. Some states are already tightening their driver licensing laws. The time is not far distant when all drivers must pass periodic re examinations to determine their continued fitness to operate a motor vehicle. The fact that you have a driver’s license today doesn’t mean you will have it a few months or a year from now. So give yourself that tougher test right now— How about your accident record—good or bad? How about your police record—good or bad? How about your physical and mental condition? Don t gamble. Drive safely, obey the law, and be sure you are fit all-ways. SLOW DOWN-LIVES ARE IN YOUR HANOSI THE OMAHA GUIDE
