...mercy of the government, which runs Turkey's paper mills. The independent Cumhuriyet of Istanbul is kept down to two or three days' supply of newsprint, thus keeping the editor under a dangling Damocles' sword. The opposition Ulus has been cut to one-fifth its normal supply, forcing a reduction in its circulation from 100,000 to 20,000. "They'd cut me off entirely," says Publisher Kasim Gulek, "but it would be difficult to explain why they want to ruin the newspaper founded by Ataturk...

...soon after an operation should the patient go back to work? While there is agreement that patients should be out of bed quickly after surgery (often on the next day), doctors differ about sending them back to their normal occupations. After appendectomy, reported Philadelphia Surgeon N. Henry Moss at a Manhattan conference, doctors recommend that their civilian patients return to light work within anywhere from five to 30 days, and to heavy work within seven to 60 days. The range was even wider after repair of a groin hernia in men over 50: from seven to 84 days for light...

After an uncomplicated hysterectomy, women take an average of seven weeks before resuming normal activities. The University of Pennsylvania's Dean (of veterinary medicine) Mark W. Allam contrasted this with the female greyhound, which, after the same operation, is back on the track within two weeks, running a half-mile at 35 m.p.h. While this is no mark for a woman to aim at, Dr. Moss suggested that quick return to full activity should be better for humans than the average present-day convalescence. Patients should not fear that their wounds will tear apart; many surgeons hold that...

...decline as the "saucer recession"-a curving dip to a level bottom and a climb on the other side. They viewed the now-dwindling inventory surpluses as a natural result of years of postwar expansion to keep pace with ever-growing markets-and considered this situation as a normal hangover caused by an inflationary binge...

...inventory cutbacks may also be nearing an end. Production is down about 40%, twice the drop in consumption. Estimates are that total steel inventories are already down below 20 million tons, off 5,000,000 tons from the peak, and below the 21 million-ton inventory considered normal. While inventories got as low as 14 million tons during the 1954 recession, steelmen reckon that in 1958's bigger economy a bare-minimum inventory is 17 million tons. What could turn steel around-and give the entire economy a healthy lift-is auto sales. With an inventory...
