Roosev - el t We have a denial of a story_... by a physician, . that the late president Roosevelt suffered - paralytic strokes during the years prior to his death. The denial comes from the daughter of the late President, Urs. Anna Roosevelt Boettiger----- who, on the radio, declare• that her father had no paralytic stroke until he died. The physician is Dr. Iarl Wold---- Staff ■ ember of a hospital at Saint Paul, Minnesota. His account is published in magazine---Look. Dr. Wold has written a book called, wur. President} Jow is your ~ealth?w He says that in preparing book, he studied the medical hi•••ry of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Dr. Wold declares that the late President had a paralytic stroke in the late summer of. 1938, about two years before the third terr election. Urs. Boettiger says this is noL true, and ii h1-~ . ,, " 1 _,. relate~ an incident to illustrate her father's good physical condition after the alleged stroke. She says that, on a fishing trip to the Gal]&fpago1 Islands he caught the largest fish on ~ he voyage, a 235 pound shark. Yes, it would take pretty good physical condition to land a shark that big. 1fThe phys1·c1·an t t th t .d t R 1 s a es a pres1 en ooseve t had an attack of influenza during the trip he ■ ade to the Cairo and Teheran conference. ~ A ft~r his return he was examined by what the doctor calls----"a parade of physicians.• S~, what was their findings? Doctor ._,ld answers that in the following words:--- - •That he had a stroke and was sufferina • fro■ general deterioration, and two of the• doubted that be could live until July 1, 1944-" He goes on to tell of another physician who exaained the g_resident 1 and eApreeeri in a private opinion, 1ta. is said to have declared that it was fifty-fifty chance that Ur. .RQQ§.tllLI sheet 113 Roosevelt would no t live to the end of his third term. .. Doctor Wold refers to the way Franklin Deland Roosevelt looked during his fourth term cam~aign-- - Duri1g which he made a tour of New York City in an open car and in the worst of a weather. The late President's daughter asserts her father's good health in that period by saying:-•My only recollection of any conversation about the weather was father laughing over how it was a~ranged for hi ■ to change to dry clothes once during the tour, without getting out of bis auto ■ obile.• Doctor Wold relates that President Roosevelt ajffered still another paralytic stroke on larch 25, 1945------about three weeks before bis death of cerebral hemorrhage.

Because here comes the American medi~al association making a study of why the Navajoas are so free of cancer, diabetes, and several other maladies.

Medical science points out that the diet of the NavajoA is far below standar - -- ---lo• in quality and uantity. ihich mak s the doctors wond r-----Yay not this low die t have soaething to do with facts like these. A mission hospital on the Navajo& reservation has a r cord of J0,000 fndians admitted for medical tr e atment. But amon g th se there were on l y 36 cases of cabcer. In the ti,,e. same number of white persons, the doctors declare"there should have been about 1800". The same story goes for diabetes----- only 5 cases were found aaong 25,000 indians. ~ A aong the whites, the figure would have been 75 times as great. All of which may be connected with the poor Ii.utrition of the Navajoes----- and this, in turn, ■ ay reflect on the rich and abundant liet of the whits 'fhie -oen ee eut 8P aropJKth WIFE: -----~ At Pacoima, C ali fornia, D onald Gregory Meyer and his wife, Alti , are having a a cond honeymoon ----- after a singular vers1·on of th d r rama o a • soldier missing in war.
