Tribesmen Immune
To Heart Trouble;
Doclen Seek Why
JOEANNESBURG, South Africa
an—The Bantu Negro tribes of cen-
tral and south Africa may give
science a key to curbing heart
diseases in the Western world.
Doctors have found members of
the Bantu tribes immune to coro-
nary thrombosis and other heart
ailments.
One reason is that these Africans
have "Peter Pan" blood vessels-
they "never grow up " The ar-
teries and veins of a Bantu 70 to
00 years old compare favorably
with those of a European of 20 to
30, doctors say.
Research has shown that most
white men have much larger de-
’ of lime salts and fatty ma-
terials in their bodies than the
Bantus. Such materials tend to
harden the blood vessels over the
years and apparently create con-
ditions making the heart more sus-
ceptible to disease.
Why the Bantus have less “
still unknown.
Dr. I. Bersohn of the Johannes-
burg Institute of Medical Research
says "The problem is to find what
protects the Bantu blood vessels
from aging."__________

Reuther Says
Goal of Reds
Is Unchanged
TORONTO i—CIo President
Walter Reuther says be is con-
vinced the Communists, despite
their friendliness since the Geneva
summit meeting, still are bent on
world domination and to achieve it
will try to "forge poverty into
power."
Reuther fold a meeting of the
Empire and Canadian Clubs yes-
terday that the Communist aim
presents a challenge to free na-
tions to abolish poverty through
social justice.
Helping in this, he continued,
are the free labor movements, one
of the free nations’ most important
assets.
"Communism is weak every-
where in the world where there
is a free labor movement with a
sense of moral and social re-
sponsibility,” Reuther declared.
"But in areas where labor is
weak, such as Italy, communism
can exploit poverty."
Christmas Island, with 1M
square miles of land area, is said
to be the biggest atoll in the Pa-
cific.
