literally move through the
artery wall. They stick in the
wall and cause the deposits.
Part or all of the deposits will
be removed, in many cases, if
the amount of fatty particles
and cholesterol in the
bloodstream is sufficiently
low.
To lower the fatty
cholesterol particles in the
blood you need to be on a diet
that does not contain excess
calories and either prevents
or eliminates obesity. The
diet should be low in fat, low
in saturated fat, and low in
cholesterol.
The reversibility of fatty
deposits in the arteries has
been demonstrated in
animals under strict experi-
mental control. The monkey
was used for one of the best ex
periments because he is more
like the human. The monkeys
developed fatty-cholesterol
deposits in the arteries when
they were on a rich diet, and
the fatty deposits were not
present after monkeys were
put back on a less rich monkey
diet.
The same thing has been
demonstrated in people. The
problems associated with fat
ty-cholesterol deposits in the
arteries, specifically heart
disease, decreased or almost
disappeared from European
populations of World War 11.
There are innumerable
studies showing this relation
ship.

triglycerides, and blood fats

disease, write to me at P. 0.

Bow about retirement
Volunteer work
means adventure
By FRANK CORRICK
Copley News Service
Q. Would you please advise
my husband and I about a vol
unteer job as we have had
skills and experience? — Mrs.
T.S.
A. There are volunteer jobs
that will make use of your own
particular skills and experi
ences. You may want to con
tact your local schools,
church, hospital, or charities
to find out what kind of volun
teer help is needed in your
own community. Another
source of information besides
these local groups is:
The National Center for
Voluntary Action, 1735 Eye
Street, N.W., Washington,
D.C. 20006.
The many retired people
who have involved them
selves in voluntary activities
are proving once again that
“retirement” does not signal
the end of something, but
rather the beginning of some
new adventure.
Q. What are the privileges
for older persons to remem
ber their age? — R.Q.
A. Most anyone cares about
their age as well as their dol
lars so they can get the better

Leather refers to uppers
benefits from both. Therefore,
it is good for them to know
about places, services and
privileges and the help to save
their money.
There are many services
provided in several cities,
which can mean convenience
and benefits to the older per
son such as free checking ac
counts in the banks, where
you don’t have to pay the bank
for each check you write.
There are such banks pro
viding free checking accounts
in Arizona, California, Colo
rado, Connecticut, Florida, Il
linois, Indiana, lowa, Kansas,
Maryland, Michigan, Minne
sota, Missouri, Nebraska,
New Hampshire, New Jersey,
New York, North Carolina,
North Dakota, Oregon, Penn
sylvania, Tennessee, Texas,
Virginia, Washington, West
Virginia, Wisconsin and
Wyoming.
Q. Are hearing aids mis
leading? — B.Y.
A. The Federal Trade Com
mission (FTC)-has warned
consumers against advertis
ing which claims that hearing
aids can remedy all hearing
difficulties. Many older peo
ple suffer from some loss of
hearing and they are the main
targets of misleading hearing
aid advertising.
The FTC points out that not
all hearing trouble can be
solved by using a hearing aid.
It advises everyone to be sure
to have a doctor, audiologist
(hearing specialist), or hear
ing clinic determine if a hear
ing aid will help.
Q. People on Social Security
— do they receive an increase
in benefits when the cost of
living keeps soaring? —
A.A.G.
A. After May 1975, benefits
may automatically be in
creased to keep pace with in
creases in the cost of living if
laws providing general bene
fit increases are not passed.
You will recall that a gener
al benefit increase of 11 per
cent was paid in a two-step in
crease earlier this year.
The first month for which a
cost of living increase may be
effective is June, 1975. The in
crease will be payable if the
consumer price index shows
an increase of at least 3 per
cent between the second quar
ter of 1974 and the first quar
ter of 1975.
