HARVARD'S CHAIR OF HYGIENE.

The physical well-being OF the un-

FINDS PELLAGRA CAUSED
BY AN UNBALANCED DIET.
Health Service Believes a Proper
Varied Food Will Eradicate the
Disease.

Washington Star.
That the substitution of a mixed.
we'll balanced varied diet for the re-
stricted one-sided diet will prevent
and eradicate the dread disease of
pellagra is the conclusion Of the fed
eral public health service commits
sion which has been Investigating the
pellagra problem in the south.
In a report today the commission,
which is headed by DR.. Joseph Gold
berger, that as a result of
it's investigations it has reached the
conclusion that pellagra is not a com
municable disease. but is essentially
of dietary origin. Pellagra, the com
mission finds, is dependent on some
yet undetermined fault in a diet in
which the animal or leguminous pro-
tein component is diSprOpOrtionately
small and the non-leguminOus vege-
table component is disproportionately
large, and hat it does not develop in
those who consume a good, rich mix
ed and we'll balanced and varied diet.
Those afflicted with the disease should
be fed an abundance Of fresh milk,
eggs, fresh, lean meat, beans and
peas.
I'VE are not to be understood as
saying that all cases will, or can, in
his or in any other way be saved
says the commission. I'VE fear that
there will always be patients who
even in their first attacks are, and
will be beyond hope Of recovery"
The commission recommends that
the people of the South, particularly
the poor, be urged to include in their
daily diet, articles Of food containing
the leguminous proteins, especially
during the late fall, winter and early
spring months.

Views of the Giants and White SOx

be shown at the Lion theatre today.
These pictures are interesting from
the point of view that they are par

faces of the people in the countries
visited, to whom baseball was an
unknown sport until the advent of
the two great American teams. Of
course the boys themselves come in
fer lots of the pictures. This is natur-
al for they are making the tour, but
more interesting than that is watch

announces mo war prices on Goodyear
Tires" F. A. Sieberling. president of
the company, thus explains their
unique position.
I'VE advanced Goodyear prices, as
others did theirs. when the rubber
panic came. Almost in a day crude
rubber rose in New York from SIS cents
per pound to much over dollar And,
as most of the worlds rubber comes
via London or Antwerp, we saw no
way out for a time.
1.-The New York supply was too small
to consider. European exchange was
entirely suspended. Merchant ships
had ceased running.
But we have an almost world wide
organization, and we brought it at once
into play We are the worlds largest
buyers of high grade rubber, SO We
have our own experts in London, Co.
lombo, Singapore and Para.
1--WE cabled our London people to
buy up the pick of the rubber there.
BY acting quickly and paying cash they
obtained 100000 pounds of the finest
rubber there They bought before the
advance-before the other buyers saw
way to get London exchange or to
bring the rubber here.
THAT big supply of rubber is now
nearly all on the way to the Goodyear
factory in Akron. 1t constitutes the
best of the London supply. On the
inferior grades remaining, prices have
since been rapidly advanced.
I'VE have since taken other steps to
insure us a continuous supply, all of
the highest grade rubber. In all the
chief sources of rubber supply we have
experts on the ground. All is being
done that can be done to secure the
best rubber. the exchange to pay for
it and the ships to bring it here.
THE result is that Goodyear tire
prices are now the same as in June
This is true, we believe, of no other
maker, all of whom have raised prices
We are using the same grade of rub
Der and the same amount of it as we
always have used in these tires.
I'VE are running our factory with
three shifts of men, twenty-four hours
a day. So long as we remain in this
fortunate position on rubber, we shall
supply tire users at beforewar prices
