SHOULD FOOD BE sALTED2
French Scientists Say There Is No Ne
Cessity for the Condimcut.


This is no new question, but appar
emily 1t is not settled yet. In an ex
haustive discussion of 1t, NJ. Rene
Laufer concludes that while salt is alb
solutely necessary to the animal or
gAnism, enough of 1t for our needs is
corIld.0ed naturally in our ordinary ar
ticles r>food, so that the addition of
it as a con0iment Is superfuous. Tales
of disease caused by lack of salt he
dismisses as Enthusiastically Says NJ.
Laufer:
THE desire for salt Is certainly uni
versal 1t seems to have been USED
everywhere at all times and in all civ
ilizatons. The same salt seasons to
day the miserable portion of the Sou
danese negro and the choice dishes OF
European tables. The need
of salt is not limited to man; many ami
mails seek it with avidity. SO
desire should not be regarded as a SIM
pie incident, that Is certain; but do
they correspond to an unavoidable ne
cessity?"
Is it not curious that the chloride of
sodium should be the only salt that we
take from nature to add to those con-
tanned in our food itself? Other min
eral substances play a much more i'm
portant part in the constitution of the
tissues, the salts of lime and the phos-
nj n TO Of =
When we use these by themselves it is
as medicine.
THE taste for salt Is not innate or
instructive; it is acquired. The moth
er's milk contains very little salt
Cows milk has at least four times as
much, but even this amount the adult
who should live on milk alone-say,
three quarts a day-wOuld take more
chloride than he needs.
MAN in a state of nature does not
salt his food. Primitive peoples who
lead pastoral and n0madic life do
not add salt to what they eat.
The same is true of animals. Dogs
and cats do not like salt. Even the
domestic herbiyores get along very
well If salt is not added to their food"
NJ. Laufer dlscredits all tales of i'll
ness from the discontinuance Of salt.
The French soldiers who were said to
have suffered from lack of salt in the
siege of Metz did so, he says, simply
because they required 1t to hide the
taste of the spoiled meat that they
were forced to eat. The story Of the
fallen i'll when deprived Of salt by
their lords bears on its face, NJ. Lau-
fer thinks, marks of its faIsity.
Among the chief morbid symptoms
said to follow the lack of salt is edema,
or swelling, but the writer shows that
nowadays a diet without salt Is pre-
scribed for this trouble and has been
effective in curing it, In the same way
he disposes to his satisfaction of all
ths different ills said to arise when
Ole is deprived of salt.
Finally, he calculates the amount of
salt necessary to carry on the processes
Of organic animal life and the amount
lost by excretion and comes to the fol-
lowing conclusion:
Our food, provided 1t constitutes
proper regimen in the physioogic sense |
of the word, contains in itself and with |
no necessity of adding to it from out |
side, sufficient salt for our needs. -

With the disposal of the polo tourna-
ment and the settling of the question
gatts will monopolize the attention of
the sporting public.
Regatta Day comes on September 16
and is perhaps Of all the years holt
days, the peoples own. The fact that
the great aquatic festival is held in the
lefty is to great extent responsible for
this, for everybody can take in the fun
with minimum of exertion.
The Pearl Harbor races are cham
piorship affairs and those who go to
see them hurry down to the Peninsula
and scurry back and few have any
thought for anything but sport pure
and simple.
All this Is changed when the Hea-
lanis and Myrtles meet in the harbor
for while the races command an i'm
mense share of interest, the crowd
comes out for a good time and always
succeeds in having it, weather, of
course, permitting.
The varied nature of the program ac-
counts for it's popularity with the
masses, for there is sport enough to
last all day. long and races for almost
every kind of craft to be found in local
waters.
The event this year promises to be as
successful as have past regattas. The
friendly rivalry between the two big
clubs is as keen as ever and both will
struggle with might and main to con-
firm or reverse the judges verdict at
