HELPFUL ADVICE FOR
THE WOMAN DRIVER
Regular, consistent main
tenance of your car will not
fight depreciation, but will
better the odds in your favor
as to -relatively trouble-free
operation.
It makes good sense to fol
low the recommended main
tenance schedule in the Owner's
Manuel or the Maintenance
booklet, both of which are
found in most new cars. You
should also keep in your glove
compartment a new booklet
of helpful advice on safe driv
ing and car maintenance. Call
ed "Straight Talk for the
Woman Driver," it's available
free by sending your name
and address to Gulf Oil Com
pany, P.O. Box 1519-TG,
Houston, Texas 77001. Once
you have all these booklets
consult them regularly. If
they say get the oil changed
every so many miles, then get
the oil changed every so many
miles or more often, under
some conditions, as recom
mended. If they tell you to
get a lubrication every 5,000
miles, by all means get one at
least as often as recommend
ed. If you're supposed to take
your car in for a 10,000 mile
check-up, then do it.
On your own you can wash
it, keep it swept out, clean
the upholstery, keep door
hinges and catches oiled and
dust off the instrument panel.
YOUR TWO CHOICES
Can the human race carve
out a creative future utilizing
all the technological sources
available? The question, posed
in a recent publication, em
braces survival, mankind, the
quality of life, and other hot
topics of today.

WbMy Diagnosis and Treatment of rKll
Now Prevents Mental Retardation
by Y E. Hsia. M.D.
Director, March of Dimes
IfO Genetics Clink

School of Medicine
f Jon Florio brought his re
M;.' port, card along when he came
in for a check-up last June, be
cause he was so proud of all
1 his "Very Satisfactory" grades.
Many of our children show off
their kindergarten report cards,
especially when they say "Pro
moted to Grade I." ffl
But Jon's academic success
was much more special. If he
had been born before CobImh
ticOt doctors began testing
every newborn for PKU dis
ease, Jon might benteriaatM
institution forseverely retarded
children this fall, instead of the
top half of his first grade class.
Jon has, bean coming to
the Yale-New Haven Genetics
Clinic for treatment and diet
instructions since he was ten
days old- Results of a newborn
screening test showed that the
phenylalanine content of his
blood was too high, suggesting
a condition called phenylketo
nuria, PKU for short.
This inborn disorder in an
infant causes phenylalanine to
gather in the body in excessive
amounts, resulting in interrup
tion of brain growth and men
tal retardation. A diet low in
protein restricts the level of
phenylalanine and can prevent
retardation; .
At the Yale-New Haven Ge
netics Clinic, which receives
support from The National
Foundation-March of Dimes,
we diagnose and treat PKU
and other inborn defects.
Parents Reassured
Jon's mother was alarmed
when she learned that her baby
would need medical treatment
for a disease that she had never
even heard of, and about which
her pediatrician knew very lit
tle. At the clinic, her fears were
shared by the other parents
whose infants had had positive
test results.
Only about one in 10,000 ba
bies is expected to be positive.
Mrs. Florio suggested that they
form a "club" to help each

Y. Idword Hsia Is duly impressed and pleased. As director af the Yale
New Haven OeneHcs Clinic, he guide the early traatment of PKU patients.

other through the bewildering
period of adjustment.
They faced their problems
together, which included get
ting used to the strange new
diet. Imagine an infant not be
ing allowed to have milk! And
what about cookies and a birth
day cake, later on?
Under the guidance of the
clinic dietitian, group members
used commercial protein sub
stitutes, inspiration, and im
agination to see that their chil
dren had facsimiles of a normal
diet including birthday cake.
That was seven years ago.
We're delighted with the medi
cal success of our program, and
it is interesting to see how this
is reflected in the changed at
titudes of parents at the clinic.
At first they were worried
and frightened about the un
known, but the next group of
parents were not as fearful.
They were reassured by the
successful results they saw in
older PKU children at the
clinic.
Now, most of the parents feel
much more comfortable about
it. The "club" has disbanded
and only a few parents feel the
need for group support.
Although we have reason
able control of PKU, future
problems may emerge. Pretty
little girls, whose phenylala
nine levels have been success
fully controlled by diet, grow
up to be attractive young ladies
who marry and have children.
There is a risk that their ba
bies will be affected before
birth by the phenylalanine in
their bodies. Excessive phenyl
alanine can reach the fetus
through the placenta and cause
brain damage.
Diet in Pregnancy
Doctors are trying to prevent
this by strict diets for pregnant
women with a PKU history. In
fact, many obstetricians now
routinely test their patients for
PKU, since there are women
who have had the disease, are
not retarded and do npt know
they might have a PKU baby.
Meanwhile, through re
search, medical services, and
well-allocated March of Dimes
funds, youngsters like Jon
Florio will outgrow their need
for low-protein diets, usually
by the age of 5 or 6, and go on
to a normal life.
The Yale-New Haven genet
ics staff won't be surprised
when Jon comes back to show
us his college diploma. After
all, anything's possible for a
boy who's just been promoted
to first grade upper level.
"To Love or to Perish: the
Technological Crisis and the
Churches" is the beginnings
of an answer. The writers and
editors of this valuable vol
ume say that the reader may
agree or not, but there's no
other choice.
This important new book
from Friendship Press is the
result of two years of research
and debate among a group of
the most articulate minds in
the United States. They join
ed together for the specific
purposes of investigating the
question of survival, charges
that today's churches are not
relevant to today's issues of
poverty, war, environmental
threats and the mounting
crimes for the Third World,
and finally, to propose an
swers. The crisp, nontechnical,
highly readable discussion is
more like a vivid newscast
than a report. And in many
ways, the findings support the
allegations that, in many ways
the churches do not relate
well to the basic issues of
today.
"To Love or to Perish,"
while it carries the names of
four people as its editors
Margaret Mead, J. Edward
Carothers, Dan iel D. McCrac ken
and Roger L. Shinn-actually
represents the individual think
ing and opinions of some
38 of the more competent
thought-leaders alive today.
The volume, now available
at local bookstores, is prima
rily being published in paper
back form because it is
thought to be an important
enough message to be put into
the hands of as many con
cerned Americans as quickly
as possible. Purchase price
is $1.95.

New Anti-Bias Rules Imposed
On Revenue Sharing Funds
By LOUISE E. WYCHE
National Black N'ews Service
WASHINGTON, D.C. The
Treasury Deartment has de
cided to beef up the agency's
anti - discrimination regula
tions for revenue-sharing re
cipients, in light of recent
criticism from major civil
rights organizations.
The civil rights groups, led
by the Leadership Confer
ence on Civil Rights, had
suggested that the Treasury
Department provide for pun- j
ishment of violators of the
civil rights provisions, but j
the proposed rules leave out '
any such action.
The interim regulations, j
opposed also by the V. S. j
Civil Rights Commission and
the Lawyer's Committee for
Civil Riqhts Under Law, pro
vided that "no person . . .
shall, on the grounds of race,
color, religion, national ori
gin or sex, he excluded from
participation in, or denied
the benefits of, or be sub
jected to discrimination in, or
denied the benefits of, or be
subjected t o discrimination ,
under, any program or acti
vity funded in whole or in
part" by the revenue sharing
funds.
The final regulations are
expected to cover payments
beginning April 5 when near
ly $6 billion is expected to
be alloted to states and cities
this year.
The civil rights organiza
tion had argued earlier that
the rules should make it very
clear what the obligations of1
the recipients Were and pro
vide for sanctions for civil
rights violators among the
recipients.
But William H. Sager, chief
counsel of the Treasury De
partment's Revenue Sharing
office, said the sanctions
would not provide for any
penalty for violators such as
a 10 percent penatl as pro
posed by the Leadership Con
ference. "The regulations could not
do that," he said. "That's
just not in the act, and we
can't do what the act doesn't
propose."

WASHINGTON Tiie Navy,
in an effort to get rid of
troublemakers and those who
iiave become a "burden to the
command", has dismissed
2,959 . sailors, 414 of whom
were black.
The dismissals, which have
been underway since late De
cember, are being carried out
under and order issued by Ad
miral Elmo Zumwalt, Jr., chief
of naval operations. The navy
said it expected another 3,000
men to be dismissed before the
end of February.
The directive permits ailist
ed men with one year's service
"whose record reflects marginal
performance or substandard
conduct" to apply for volun
tary early separation.
The sailors are. dismissed
from the Navy under honorable
discharges but they will uot
be permitted to re-enlist even
if they want to. A Navy spokes
man said that one big reason foi
the mass discharges is because
so in any of the men came into
the Navy under pressure from
the draft.
In his directive, Zumwalt
said the "voluntary early sepa
ration of those men will lieip
the service more expeditiously
attain the true all-volunteer
quality Navy force."
One spokesman said the
directive will permit the Navy
to "purge ourselves of those
individuals with repeated ad
ministrative and disciplinary
problems."

a "significant showing" in the
the elections in 11 southern
states in 1972. Their political
astuteness is shown by the fact
that they helped elect 598

Senator Abraham Ribicoff
(D-Conn.) to make public the
Department of Health, Educa
tion and Welfare tne meetings
of a committee investigating
the i wleraliv-.sponsored .Tuske
gee syphilis experiment.
Ribicoff, former HEW Sec
retary during the Kennedy ad
ministration, last week said that
the privately-held committee
meetings are not in the public
interest and circumvent the
law.
The committee was appoin
ted last year after sensational
disclosure that for 40 years tne
U.S. Public Health Service had
conducted a syphilis experi
ment among Black men in Tus
kegee, Alabama.
More than 430 of tnese men
were used as gunea pigs to see
what effect syphilis would
have on tneir bodies if tne
disease went untreated.
At least 28, and possibly
107 of the men died from
tne untreated disease. After
tne discovery of penicillin mien
tne men could nave easily been
cured tney were still allowed to
go untreated in order to carry
out tne experiment.
The HEW investigating com
mittee is due to release a report
by March 31 after weighing
