Meats and Vegetables
Head of Institution for Treatment of Tuber-
cuIosis Believes Diet Should Be Carefully
Selected for the Different Patients.

The controversy started In London by
Sir James Crichton Browne. concerning
his address before the Sanitary Inspec-
tors Association, on the subject of the
British food supply, finds on echo in
Gen. George NJ. Sternberg's ideas In re-
gard to meat eating
Americans. as well as Englishmen,
cut too much meat" said General
Sternberg. "A strictly meat diet should
not be followed, especially for those who
lead sedentary lives. Plenty OF outdoor
exercise Is necessary"
Little of Both.
The general. who is an authority on
tuberculosis and who Is president OF the
board of directors Of the Starmont SAM
tarium. at Washington Grove. Nd. lays
down as his dictum. meat once a day
and milk and eggs and vegetables. Too
much meat or too many vegetables, he
thinks, is not the proper diet.
The fact, as stated by Sir Crichton
Browne and DIT. Henry Forbes, that
Vegetarians are largely subject TO cancer
and tuberculosis, could only be arrived
at says General Sternberg. after an eX-
haustive study Of data bearing on these
subjects. AS 20 the question OF man
adding seven years 10 his life by eating
nothing but meat is problematical, as
no one, the general thinks, could fore
tell such possibility.
