Health Column By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN. MD. Gout Attacks Cortisone and ACTH have recently been successful in relieving severe attacks of gout, the painful Inflammation that has plagued man so With the growing importance of other diseases, people do not hear so much about gout these days, and many believe it is disappearing. This is a mistaken belief.

Estimates tell us that at least five per cent of patients going to specialists for rheumatic diseases of the bones and joints really have gout. Another erroneous belief is that gout is a result of living too well," and the well-fed sufferer Is sometimes considered a comic character. However, doctors have long recognized that gout attacks both the rich and the poor and is no joke, although those who overindulge are more likely to contract this condition. This disease, which so closely resembles rheu xnatoid arthritis, deserves more respect and attention. It is true that certain foods, such as liver, rare meat, wine, sometimes bring on a sudden attack, but these are not the real causes of the disease.

Gout is really the result of faulty metabolism of uric acid. A certain level of uric acid is normal in the blood, but the person with gout has more than the normal amount. This excess acid produces deposits around the joints, causing arthritis. RECOGNIZING GOUT A doctor can usually recognize the disease from deposits around the outer ear. These are formed from a salt of uric acid, and are (Continued on.

Americas MARY HAWORTHS MARL Expectant Father Was Gentle With Wife, But Now Is Coarse, Jesting, Indifferent Dear Mary Haworth: My baby is due Jan. 10, and I am sick and tired of hearing about how Chinese females work in the fields almost to the hour of giving birth, and almost immediately afterwards. I am tired of laughing at so-called corny scenes of anxious, solicitous expectant fathers in movies and advertising illustrations. I am tired of our medical student friends and their statistics on the ease, simplicity, of having babies.

These ha-ha-ing fellows, so insistently flip about child bearing, are manifesting the emotional gaucherie and sexual crudity of sniggering small boys trying to sound wiseacre, blase and unmoved in relation to a phenomenon that deeply disturbs them. I might even say, frightens them.

They married for self-indulgent reasons, I suppose, and the advent of babies finds them nervously defensive against the idea of dealing with a helpless dependent, thus possibly forfeiting some of their customary masculine gratifications. So in guise of jest they warn the expectant mama to be self-reliant-plus, or at any rate stoic, and not to irk papa by looking to him for manly tender consideration. When their manner is vaguely hostile or disparaging as in using the appellative Sow they are implicitly rejecting the whole proposition of parenthood, making the wife the scapegoat of their unwillingness to grow up. A By-Product of War Nerves As to why it must all be so casual, so funny, so terribly unimportant, this having a baby it occurs to me that the times in wAich you live have something to do with the attitude of callous levity. In part, it is a derivative of warrior psychology no doybt.

Men in front lines of battle, or men in combat training, tend to develop a vein-of-irony, a rough caustic wit or comedy line, in verbalizing their views of crucial matters, an involuntary adaptation to tension that lets them speak without sounding shattered. This puts their finer feelings on ice, in reserve for later use in safer, more relaxed sur roundings, presumably; and the net result is that the guarded cynic tone is apt to carry over into their whole experience. If your husband is now or lately has been a serviceman, he and his buddies probably make a point of thinking in Army jargon which isnt sympathetically attuned to the average womans sensibilities. Finally, may I remind that women are somewhat accountable for the respect (or derision) they get from men. To thine own self be true, if you have a sense of dignity about life, and others will be unable to treat you lightly.

If you see nothing funny in public mockery of anxious expectant fathers, why laugh? If you 'arent amused by ha-ha references pregnancy, dont try to smile. The vulgarity of others will seein less wearisome, when you keep faith Mrs. William Owens seated as president JWV Auxiliary To Meet TonigKt The Ladies Auxiliary to Sandy Weisberger-Leon Kaplan Post, JWV, will hold a white elephant sale in Temple Israel tonight at 8:15 oclock.

Crude Levity Cloaks Anxiety DEAR D. The dismaying aspect of this picture is the gross lack, of maturity evident in the mens vulgar sportive attitude towards pregnancy.
