Did You Know Hayfever is Caused By Love Love of the Ragweed for Its Mate? In the Fall a ragweed’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love and this month, throughout most of the United States, every up standing ragweed will be on the hunt for a mate. All this seedy pursuit of hap piness is all right for ragweeds but it's tough on you if you are one of the millions who suffer hay fever as the result of in haling pollen In that case you cannot afford to look down your nose at the activities of the ' young ragweed Romeos and Juliets. Many of them may not find each other, but find your nose instead Worse, they may even have a date there. In that case you ought to know about Neohetramine (2-(N dimethyl-aminoethyl-N-p-meth oxybenzyl) - amino - pyrimidine mono-hydrochloride) and don’t sneeze at that either. This inter esting sounding and acting drug, a product now made available by Wyeth Incorporated on a doc tor's prescription, has been found in a number of recorded clinical tests to give relief to 82 per cent of seasonal hay fever suf ferers. and what is most remark able of all, with almost complete absence of deleterious, or "side," effects. These tests, as reported by Drs. Leo H Criep and Theodore H. Aaron of the University of Pittsburgh Medical School and Montefiore Hospital to the American Academy of Allergy, showed Neohetramine to be the safest of all similar drugs. In fact the incidence of side effects was so low that they named it the “safest" antihistaminic. Neohetramine, the physicians showed, has also proved star tlingly effective in curing or moderating headache, bronchial asthma, the skin eruption known as urticaria, and allergic rhinitis. The tests were extensive, 124 hay fever sufferers being treated with Neohetramine by Drs. Criep and Aaron. The development of Neohe tramine is the result of clever medical detection work. Aller gies are a comparatively teceni medical discovery. The word ••allergy” has been in the lan guage only half a century. It u now known that the inhalatior of pollens, especially that oi ragweed, can produce asthma sneezing, face swelling ant other allied symptoms. Mar-} foods, shellfish and strawberries for example, wool, cat fur anc scores of other things ma/causi various unhappy reaction) among those allergic to them. When a disease germ enter the body, the body automatical ly sett up its own defer.se t; j * manufabturirfg anti-bodies t combat the germ. Pollens am other allergens are also met it I the body with anti-bodies. But the real villain of the hay fever and other similar griefs is now believed to be a chemical called histamine which is normally found in minute quantities in most of the body tissues. Pollen and the antibodies it creates combine to cause the liberation of histamine in the body. The histamine in turn dilates the blood vessels so that the tissues which the blood vessels feed be come swollen and gorged, like the stomach of a man who has eaten far too much. When the tissues of the mucous membrane of the nose get this indigestion and stomachache, the result is hay-fever or perhaps rhinitis. Other tissues so afflicted may result in hives, asthma or worse. Histamine thus acts as a sort of fifth columnist in the body for allergens But it was only recently that histamine’s devi ous underground work was dis covered. Once that was estab lished, however, the research laboratories got to work and de veloped the so-called antihis taminics. Of these, Neohetra mine, as shown in the Criep Aaron report, is the least likely to produce in the patient such side reactions as dizziness and drowsiness. The antihistaminics have been found valuable also in other re | spects — notably in overcoming 1 certain patients’ allergies to drugs which it is necessary to i administer to them. During a ■ recent operation for tumor at ’ Temple University Hospital, > penicillin, injections 1 I to be 1 given a woman patier.. To thes< i she showed pronounced an< dangerous allergic reactions which disappeared when the surgeons administered Neohetiv mine. . The great value of antihist.. mimes to medicine can be ap preciated when it is remembei ed what a tremendous Acid is cov ered by allergies. Certain per sons, for example, are allergic to cold and a sudden dip in too cold water or too prolonged swimming may result in death. Others are allergic to heat. The list of allergens run the gamut from cat's fur td milk. The case of a man who broke into a rash on Monday mornings puzzled physicians for months They tested him for one allergy after another until they remem bered that his rash always oc curred on Mondays. Then the answer Anally came. He was al lergic to funny papers—that is to the ink used to print them. 'There are also allergies which are of psychogenic origin. A woman married for Ave and a half years had suffered asthma for Ave years of that time. She went to Arizona, was cured within a few months and re turned East to her husband. Five months later she had asthma again. She went back to Tucson and was again cured. Her hus band moved to Tucson to be with her. Five days later she was hos pitalized with an acute attack of asthma. Probably Neohetramine would have done no good in this case. Reno was the cure. Since her divorce the lady has lived in the East and has suffered no re ' -urrence of her asthma. She s simply allergic to her hus .. Patrillo Trust Agreement OK’d Washington, D. C.—Supporting a memorandum prepared by Wil i liani S. Tyson. Solicitor for the U. S. Department of Labor, At j torney General Tom C. Clark has held that the trust and labor agreements entered into by James ! C. Petrillo’s American Federation of Musicians and the phonograph recording industry do not violate the Taft-Hartley Act. This cleared the way immedi ately for the resumption of rec ord-making by the union. The ban against recording began on December 31, 1947. * Secretary of Labor Maurice J. Tobin announced the Justice and Labor Department's approval of the agreements. The union and the recording company had asked Tobin for his opinion. The Sec retary in turn asked Solicitor Tyson’s opinion, which held that the agreement was legal. Then Tobin submitted the question to Attorney General Clark. The agreements submitted to Tobin named Samuel R. Rosen baum, director of the Philadelphia Orchestra Association as sole trustee of the union welfare fund, Royalties of 1 to Vtt cents on each record comprise this fund. The trustee is to spend this money "on musical performances where no admission fee is to be charged and without any profit to the HAPPY NEW YEAR' Lafayette Grill 300 West Morehead Fidelity Lunch 504 South Tryon TWO GOOD PLACES TO EAT’ CHARLOTTE. N. C. trust fund, in connection with patriotic, charitable, educational and similar programs." The question Wbmitted to To bin was, "Does the agreement naming the trustee violate Sec tion 302 of the Taft-Hartley Act, which makes it a criminal offense for employers to make any pay ments to “representatives of his employes’ and for employes to ac cept such payments?” Tyson’s opinion was in the negative and it was upheld by the Attorney General. It held that the trustee was not a rep resentative of the employes, since he is named by the employers, SEASON'S GREETINGS Johnson Radio Sarvice All Makes off Radios Repaired City-Wide Pickup and Delivery Service Auto Radio Salas k Service 90 days service seereateed 1920 Kestwey Drive Die! 3-0396 CHAKLOTTI. N. C. and further that the trust agree ment specifically states that the trustee shall not represent lalror or unions or employes. The settlement provides for retroactive payments by the companies on records sold in the future but •produced 1 retween September 20, 1943, and Decem ber 31, 1047, and between ()c tobor 1, 1948, and December 31, 1953.
