A^KATCHBWAN c,yJ[£TL*f fLOWWC?! 0 / / S ' ~ Q. Is it true that the Pay board's exception for catch-up increases is scheduled to ex­ pire? A. The catch up exception will expire June 30, 1972. However, for those appropriate employee units where average straight-time pay rates, in­ cluding benefits such as vacation a^d overtime, is $3.00 per hour ot- less, the catch-up exception will expire on November 13, 1972. Q. I understand that my landlord must determine the base rent for my apartment before increasing rent. How can I figure out the base rent on my own? A. The base rent for a unit subject to a month-to-month (or less) lease before the freeze is the last rent paid for that unit before the freeze. For example, if you pay your rent on the first of each month, your base rent is your August, 1971 rent. If you were on a lease for more than month-to-month on Aug. 14, 1971, your base rent is determined by one of the following ways: If you signed the lease bet­ ween May 16 and Aug. 14, 1971 your base rent is the monthly rent called for in that lease; If you signed the lease on or before May 15, 1971, your base rent is the rent stated in the lease plus the average per­ centage increase charged by the landlord for other units having leases signed between July 16, 1971 and August 14, 1971. If no leases were signed during this period, the landlord must use the leases signed during the preceding 30-day period, and if necessary leases signed in the 30-days prior to that. If no leases were signed in the 90 days before the freeze, your base rent is the rent for your unit on May 25, 1970, plus 5 percent, or the rent im­ mediately before August 14, 1971 whichever is higher. In most cases , if you are on a lease your rent may not be increased until the current lease expires. Q. My landlord charges a fee for automobile parking spaces. Is this considered rent under stabilization regulations? A. It is considered rent if the parking space is used in con­ nection with your residence. If not so used, however, it is not considered rent. In the latter instance, this kind of activity would be considered a service and your landlord would be subject to the price controls on service industries, unless exempt from controls because of the small business exemp­ tion. Q. Do service organizations have to post their base prices? A. No. Service organizations do not have to post base prices or base price information. The requirement to post base prices applies to retailers. Though many types of service organizations, such as dry cleaners or TV-repair shops are located in street-level stores. they are not retailers as that term is used in the price regulations. To be considered a retailer, a business must purchase a product and, without substantially changing its form/resell it to the ultimate consumer. Service organizations, if they are not exempt from controls because of the small business exemption, must maintain base price records for inspection by the Internal Revenue Service. For more information on the price controls on service organizations, see IRS Publication S-3017. It's available free by dropping a postcard to your IRS district office. Q. Do all forms that have to be filed with the Price com­ mission have to be signed by V the chief executive officer of the firm? * r" A. The Price commission has determined it to be permissible for forms submitted to be signed by any corporate officer if an accompanying certificate is filed (signer by the chief executive officer) certifying the signer of the form to be aft officer of the corporation with responsibility for signing such forms. MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS Through the courtesy of Family Health Service and Mental Health Clinic Medicines For Mental Illness What kinds of drugs are used for the different types of men­ tal illness? A useful classifka-' tion has been prepared by the Psychopharmacology Research Branch of the National Insti­ tute of Mental Health. First, the scientists define these medicine? as "those drugs which have their main or prin­ cipal effect on mood, thought processes, or behavior." They divide the drugs into six major classes. Perhaps the besl known men­ tal illness drugs are the major and minor tranquilizers, which became available in the 1950's. An example of the major tran- qu-lircr •> is chlorpromazine. These drugs are considered use­ ful in treatment of most severe disorders, such as the psychoses, including schizophrenia. They help decrease agitation, thought disorder, hallucinations, and de­ lusions. The minor tranquilizers are also referred to as antianxiety agents. An example of this class is meprobamate. They are used to alleviate anxiety with­ out inducing drowsiness such as sedative drugs cause. Antidepressant drugs ^came into wide use following the tranquilizer;: and an example is imipramine. These agents were found useful in treating some cases of depression. * Stimulant drugs, of which the amphetamines are an illustra­ tion. are principally used med? ically for the treatment of obesity since their effects in* elude the reduction of appetite. They increase the desire for activity usually and reduce fa­ tigue and are sometimes used in mental illness in cases of de ; pression. The sedative drugs, with the barbiturate, phenobarbital, an example, are a group ofMong- used drugs. In mental illness, they have been employed as helping' agents, for calming purposes, particularly before the tranquilizers came along. Hypnotic drugs include the short-actinu (as contrasted to 3 DAY WEEKEHD PAINT SAI\ vMB & ^9 THIS THURSDAY, FRIDAY A SATURDAY 00 PCR GALLON ON VlN^ ACRYLIC LATEX IXTIRIOR HOUSE PAINT SAVE s2°° ON IVIIIY GALLON!

They are used in treatment of dis­ turbances of sleep. Through research, additional drugs are being added; and lithium carbonate has recently come into special use as a treat­ ment of the manic episodes of manic-depressive disease. Stud­ ies are underway to determine the full potentials and limita­ tions of this promising agent. PsychologicaLand physiologi­ cal dependence--and undesired, harmful side effects--can occur with any of the drugs used against" mental illness. This cannot be too strongly empha­ sized. It must also he stressed that none of the drugs should he taken without a doctor's pre­ scription and under a careful, planned program of use. By Raymond Minor, D.V.M. ̂ Manager of Veterinarian Services Norden Laboratories Worms are your dog's most common affliction. There are five main types that may infest your pet - heartworms, hookworms, roundworms, tapeworms and whipworms. If not treated promptly, infections from these parasites will seriously injure yoilr dog's general health and, frequently, result in death. Some of these parasites, for example, roundworms and heartworms, cause diseases that can be transmitted to beings. The roundworm found in dogs is essentially a parasite of puppies, with the majority of infections occurring by the prenatal route - the larvae being transferred from the pregnant dog to the fetus. Puppies will show evidence of Jiirth. The puppies then will "release millions of eggs which are passed out in the feces. These eggs may adhere to the pup's paws and hair, and children should not be around puppies or nursing mothers until successful treatment has been completed. Heartworm disease, which can result in death to your pet, is transmitted by an in­ termediate host -- various mosquito species. This parasite's life cycle in man begins with a bite of the mosquito and follows the same probable course as in dogs. Fortunately, it appears that the heartworm cannot reproduce in man-thus dead- ending the parasite. Since the presence of a few worms is of little pathogenic importance in the well- nourished growing or mature main problem consists of preventing exposure to massive infections, especially in young puppies. Strict sanitation is^tfre Key to preventing nearly all pfrasite infections. The puppies' quarter^ should be spotless. The dog ^nould be maintained on dry rtinways, or washed surfaces, such as {Concrete, which are exposed to sunlight as much as possible. Shaded, moist earthen areas offer an especially favorable environment during the warm weather for the parasite's eggs. By eliminating these con­ ditions, your dog's infection potential will be considerably reduced. Among the symptoms associated with worms are £ dry, dull haircoat; excessive scratching, coughing, weight loss, listlessness, diarrhea -- or a pot belly. However, these same symptoms may well signify many other problems. To check your dog for worms, 1 bring a stool sample to your veterinarian for examination. I would suggest discussing this with your veterinarian ks soon as possible after purchasing a new puppy or older dog, regardless of what the pet shop owners or previous owner Jtold you. Your veterinarian will probably have the dog examined for worms at least twice a year, even if he appears the healthiest thing on four feet. While there are commercial remedies for worms at most pet stores, I would like to remind you that successful treatment depends on two factors: ac­ curate diagnosis of the specific type of worm, and the correct dosage of medication prescribed with knowledge of your dog's past medical history and an evaluation of his present health. -r Dr. Minor regrets that he is unable to personally answer letters from pet owners. He suggests that readers consult their own veterinarian when their pets have problems. TJhe XV.oWiy. Cli i n i c Your Health Dr. Z. lost money because he failed to "package" his scientific merchandise properly. And this involves inflating the ego of patients or customers by remembering their names! Everybody can astound himself by his zooming memory if he will follow the basic rules below. They are easy, too! By - George W.Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE H-551: Dr. Z. was president of his dental society. He had invited me to In­ dianapolis for a discussion of "Psychology in Professional Practice." And Dr. Z. asked me to in­ clude some advice on how to remember names and faces. For he said he had been working hard to get through with his last patient at 4:45 in the afternoon, since he was due to meet Mrs. Z. downstairs at 5 p.m. He shifted to his suit coat and took the elevator. Then he walked over to the perfume counter where he had promised to wkit for his wife. An attractive sales girl came over and asked: "Dr. Z. is there anything I can do to help you?" He shook his head, saying that he was just there t& meet his wife. Then he inquired, "But how did you know my name?" Eyes widening in shocked surprise, the sales girl protested: "Why, Doctor, I just got out of your dental chair 5 minutes ago!" She was that last patient. "And, Dr. Crane," he lamented, "she has never come back to my office, and it has been over two years!"^ So that's why Dr. Z. wanted more stress on remembering names and faces! Alas, many doctors of medicine and dental surgery may identify their suture marks on an appendectomy scar, or even help the police solve a murder mystery by identifying the teeth in a skeleton, yet those same doctors may not be able to recognize patients on the street! For in past years we have taught and practiced "organic" medicine and dentistry instead of realizing that a doctor treats the entire human beings. . A doctor never operates on an appendix or a tooth - but always on the 150-pound man or 125- pound woman on the other end of that appendix or tooth! This is the new "organismic" doctrine. ' * And the best way to win friends is to remember that everybody has this indelible tattoo across his chest, which reads: "I WAICTTO FEEL IM­ PORTANT." When a doctor or a salesman or even a good waitress remembers our name, that makes us feel more important. So procure a clearcut ex­ posure to every new name at the outset, for memory is much like photography in that you can't get a clear reproduction from a fuzzy original exposure! Then utter the name, as by saying "Glad to meet you, Mr. Knight." Quickly repeat the name as by introducing the stranger to somebody else. Also» make it a rule to state the name aloud at least 3 times at the outset. For Your Information Dear friends, Funeral directors realize that we are living in times of great change. We readily admit that some changes are beneficial while others are not. With reference to funeral service, we are dedicated to serve our families in their time of bereavement, and we will meet their need to mourn and to honor their dead as they wish it done. Respectfully, \ PETER M. JUSTEN & SON FUNERAL HOME McHenry, Illinois . 385-0063 PET THERAPY Did you realize pets can be a valuable aid in the physical and mental treatment of patients? That's right. Actually almost anything - including television - can cheer up patients. But dogs, cats, birds, monkeys, squirrels and even skunks are much more effective. You see, the very fact that Dets are "alive" can stimulate a patient's desire to live. And by providing companionship and a feeling of security (some even assume the role of guardian) they often help people actually get well. Pets are particularly ef­ fective in the treatment of some mentally-ill children. In certain cases-- where a child is deprived of love or somehow incapable of accepting an adult's love - he may be able to accept the affection of a pet. If he can, the pet becomes a very valuable tool of his treatment. These are just some of the reasons physicians often suggest "pet therapy". Is one type of pet more therapeutic than another? That depends on the in­ dividual. Some patients, especially children, respond better to the affection found in dogs, mongrels in particular. Others need the intellectual challenge found in cats. Still others prefer birds. If you're about to choose a pet, regardless of the type, make sure it has a calm disposition...intelligence...and a good nature. A pet without these qualities could make a patient more sick. Then conjure up visual imagery, as by viewing a plumed knight in full atmor, if the stranger is named John S. Knight. That night, have a contest with your mate to see who can write down the most names of newcomers at the party or church affair. For further psychological strategy, send for my booklet on "How to Improve Memory," enclosing a long stamped, return envelope, plus 20 cents.
