AIR AND SEA FIGHT
OFF ISLAND
OF SyLT
SeapIanes and Cruisers Attack
German Base
THREE SHIPS AND 3 PLANES LOST
British destroyer Sunk in Collision
and TWO German Trawlers Sent
to the Bottom.

London, March 26.-England gave
its first effective answer yesterday
morning to German air raids. A squad
ron of five seaplanes, conveyed by
light cruisers and destroyers, crossed
the North sea and went straight to the
home of the German planes which
have frequently visited the English
coast. They attacked the German air
ship sheds in Schleswig, east of the
island Of Sylt. They were met, how
ever by an effective anti-fract defense
while their conveys were engaged by
German armed trawlers. A battle
royal both in the air and at sea, out
side the harbor of Sylt, ensued. Only
two of the British planes returned, the
three others including battle plane,
were brought down, according to an
official statement issued at Berlin.
Stormy weather prevailed, and in
the course of an exciting naval engage
ment the British destroyer Medusa COL
lided with the British destroyer Lave
rock. The Medusa is believed to have
been lost. The Germans on their part,
lost two armed trawlers, the Brauns-
chweig and the Otto Rudolph

Lather yourself with it and then go to

LEAVENED BREAD A MENACE
italian Hygienist Recommends the
Substitution Of Whole Wheat With
Minimum Amount Of Yeast.

Leavened bread has been declared
q menace to health as well as q ma
tional economic loss by Prof. A. Ro-
mano, q distinguished Italian hygien-
list. Professor Romano's statement
came as a result of the study of Italian
scientists and medical men of the
bread and wheat situation to forestall
the threatened shortage Of wheat and
consequently bread. The professor
urges in substitution of the leavened
bread a bread made from whole wheat
and, at the most, from the minimum
Of yeast.
The Italian expert declares that the
process of ~leavening makes bread too
soft and renders it liable to be bad
ly masticated and imperfectly mixed
with saliva, especially when taken in
milk or soup or dipped into various
liquids according to prevailing Italian
custom, when it is apt to be rapidly
swallowed. The digestion Of bread
under these conditions is more or less
imperfect, even though it does not
necessarily reach the point of causing
dyspeptic symptoms, and it is assim-
Hated in less proportion to what it
would be in normal circumstances.
Moreover, the added yeast preserves
part of its activity ven after baking,
and continues to ferment in the stom-
ach, giving rise to the production of
acetic and Tactic acids, among other
substances, which are harmful to those
subject to an irritable state of the
mucous membrane. Professor Ro-
mano insists, therefore, that the use of
white leavened bread is a serious error
in alimentary hygiene, while it also
constitutes an enormous loss in do
mestic and national economy. He ad-
vises that bread should not only be
made with whole wheat, but that it
should not be subjected to the process
Of leavening.
Lest it should be thought impossi-
BILE to manufacture a wholemeal bread
without ~leavening which would satis-
fly the taste, he mentions that such
bread has been for some time on the
market abroad, and in regard to flavor
has met with entire appreciation.

RESTA AND DE PALMA TO STAGE
HOT RACE FOR SUPREMACY
Chicago will have the opportunity
of seeing a real auto race for glory.
Two speed kings, Dario Resta and
Ralph De Palma, have agreed to such
a race for next Sunday at Speedway
park.
This will be battle, not for a mere
money prize, but because each be-
lieves himself the others master.
They will drive three races, begin
ming at o'clock. One will be for
10 miles, the second for "a miles and
the last for so miles. The winner
will be he who cops two out of three.
The race was brought about be-
cause Of De Palma's feeling that only
a hOOdOO prevented him from win
ming first place in Sundays derby in
his cream-COlOTed Mercedes. Resta
says he is going to prove that his
victory wasn't a matter of luck.
