16 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, Nevember 5, 1958 "RESTORING DIGNITY" Cabinet Member Is Devout Man By OVID A. MARTIN _ WASHINGTON (AP)--Ezra Taft Benson, United States secretary of agriculture, sees himself as a man with a mission -- and he shows every intention of sticking with it in the face of bitter opposition. That mission is to turn economic and political tides which he be- lieves are carrying U.S. farmers to a position of being completely dominatéd by and dependent upon the government. In Benson's view, his cabinet job is not far different from the one he held as one of the 12 . apostles of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints before "he was appointed by President Eisenhower to the agricultural post. The goal of the Mormon church as well as the goal of his present job, Benson said, is to help build men of freedom, industry and character, Before consenting to take the cabinet post, Benson made sure that President Eisenhower under- stood where Benson stood. , "If T am Jeft free to administer this office To restore the dignity of the individual in agriculture and th. spiritual values left us by our founding fathers, I accept," Ben- son said. GETS GREEN LIGHT Benson took over and struck out with zeal to accomplish his goal. It was a zeal that had marked his family for years. Benson's great grandfather and namesake was | one of the 12 apostles of the church who entered the Salt Lake valley in 1847 with Brigham Young. The mew secretary was well grounded in agriculture. He had been trained, in agricultural col- leges, had served the state of Idaho as a farm mark 'ing spec- ialist, had operated h' own farm of the National Council of Farmer Co-operatives. ; Berson is against subsidies to farmers. He opposes use of gov- ernment price supports as a method of assuring farmers a de- sired income. He dislikes govern- ment production and marketing controls. All of these economic in- struments are mainstays of pres- ent federal farm programs. UNDER HEAVY FIRE But today, nine months later, he finds himself and his ideas under attack, Some farmers and farm leaders as well as several political leaders are demanding his resigna- tion. But Benson is standing firm. He says he will not quit under fire unless the president asks him to. Benson's misfortune has been that he has sought broad changes in farm policies at a time when prices and incomes are declining and surpluses piling up. WOUNDED WHILE HUNTING LINDSAY (CP)--W. H.

CLIFF BARAGAR PHONE: 5-5512 162 KING ST. EAST EXPERT TIRE SERVICE Penicillin By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE NEW YORK (AP)--Getting a quick shot of penicillin when you have a cold, 'flu or certain other infections is being called medical nonsense, and even dangerous. The Sutiviotic ually joes no y j medical ex- S908, say. 5s costly and risks making you allergic or sensitized to the drug so it cannot be used later for something really serious. The common cold, the season is nearing, and 'flu are caused by viruses. Antibiotics can knock out a wide variety of germs, but virus experts say they show little if any effect against true viruses. Many doctors have been giving penicillin or other antibiotics as a routine part of treatment of res- piratory infections. Their reason Shot For Cold "No Good" looked good--to prevent .possibly serious secondary infections or complications. But this theory is challenged by two recent medical reports. One challenge comes from Dr. Perrin H. Long, state university of New York college of medicine, writing in the New York state medical journal. "Probably the commonest and most serious abuse of antibiotics by physicians today" is using them as preventives or cures for mild respiratory infections, he says. These drugs do help greatly against various types of bacterial infections. But they are effective against only a few kinds of viral or rickettsial infections--such as non-typical or virus pneumonia, parrot fever and Q fever. _ They are nonetheless used against real or suspected virus conditions, often on the assump- tion of protecting against sec- ondary illnesses, Dr. Long says, adding: MAY BE DANGEROUS '"By and large, this is not only sheer nonsense from the medical point of view, but also may even be dangerous because of the known risk of sensitizing patients to an antibjotic by frequent administra- on." Dr. Long is sup) d by a study by Capt. Philip N. Jones, Maj. Roy 'S. Bigham, Jr., and Lieut. Phil R. Manning of the U.S. Air Force. Of 150 men with non-bacterial influenza - like illness, none de- veloped secondary infections when treated with either aspirin, or the anti-biotics terramycin or ery- thromycin, they say in the journal of the American Medical Associa- tion, Aspirin was as good or better than the antibiotics in reducing ever. Anzacs Promise They Won't Tire Queen Out CANBERRA (AP) -- Australia and New Zealand gave assurances today that every precaution' will be taken to ensure that the Queen is not adversely affected by the strain of the forthcoming Royal tour of her Pacific dominions. These assurances were given fol- lowing criticism in the British House of Commons that the ar- rangements for the tour might be too strenuous. In Canberra, Eric Harrison, Au- stralian minister in charge of .tour arrangements, said that all precautions, the program shows any sign of unduly wearying the Queen, Australia will not hesitate to advise changes. SEVEN DAYS KEPT CLEAR He said the Queen will be in Au- stralia 57 days but will have no official engagements on seven full days and nights, 11 afternoons, five mornings and 18 evenings. In Australia the Queen will be covering great distances, including | 10,000 miles in 35 separate flights. He said every possible step has been taken to make travelling con- | ditions as easy and pleasant as possible. In Auckland, N. Z., Prime Min- ister Sidney Holland said he was satisfied that the program would of either the Queen or the Duke of , despite | Edinburgh. He said he has aphesled local avoid a any po not unduly tax the strength authorities to engagements planned. .
