MEAT-EATING CURSE
OF AMERICAN NATION
Declared DR.. Graham Lusk Before Inter
national Conference of Women
Physicians at New York.

New York Sept. 20.-The eating of
meat was the target of attacks in an
address delivered yesterday before the
international conference of women physi-
clans. DR.. Graham Lusk, professor of
physiology at Columbia university, de-
Iclared that meat was the curse Of the
American nation and the foundation for
the high cost Of living" while DR.. E. v.
IMacCullm of Baltimore asserted that
unless the consumption of meat is re-
duced and fresh green vegetables sub.
Istituted, the nation will be visited with
some sort of plague like Beri Beri or
,Pellagra.
DIR. Lusk recited the case of one fam
lily Of five which ate l6'worth of meat
weekly in addition to eggs cheese, grain,
vegetables, fruit and other food prod
,llcts. If meat was eliminated from the
family menu and more green vegetables
substituted, the speaker declared, the
weekly food bill would be reduced $40.
Meat, he said, contains only AZ per cent
of nutritious substances.
DR., MacCullum said that the poor had
a mistaken idea that meat was an es-
sential food, with the result that they
suffered from underweight. Experiments
conducted on animals, she explained,
showed that when fed with meat and
tubular vegetables they grew prema-
turely old and died, whereas those fed
on dairy foods and green vegetables
thrived. Undernourished inmates of an
orphan asylum, fed with one quart of
milk daily, showed considerable improve
ment, she said.

currence of a unanimous vote Of the
representatives of the state which are
members of the council, 80 that in all
matters of action the affirmative vote
of the United States is necessary and
equivalent to the united vote of the rep
resentatives of the several parts of the
British empire. The united votes of the
several parts of the British empire can
not Offset or overcome the vote of the
United States.
2-Is it true that under the league of
nations foreign countries can order the
sending of American troops to foreign
countries?
Answer-lt is not The right of Con-
gress to determine such matters is in no
wise impaired
3-What effect will the league of ma
tions have in either forwarding or him
dering the final restoration of Shantung
to China? What effect will the league
of nations have IN preventing further
spoliation of China and the abrogation
Of all such special privileges now enjoyed
in China by foreign countries?
Answer The league of nations will
have very powerful effect in forward
ing the final restoration of Shantung to
China, and no other instrumentality or
action can be substituted which could
bring that result about. The authority

GREAT BRITAIN CAN'T
OUTVOTE u. S.
Nor Could Foreign Government, Under
the League Of Nations Covenant, Or
der American Troops Abroad,
Says Wilson.

San Francisco, Sept ls.-Replying in
a statement to list of questions put to
him by San Francisco league Of nations
organization, President Wilson declared
Great Britain could not outvote the Unit
ed States in the league; that foreign
government could not, under the cove
nant, order American troops abroad;
that the league would have powerful
influence toward restoration of Shantung
TO China; that the United States would
not be obligated by article 10 to aid
Great Britain in suppressing revolt in
Ireland; and that under article IL there
would be created a new forum for ques-
lions of self-determination.
Mr. Wilson's statement containing the
questions and answers follow:
Twill you state the underlying con-
sideration which dictated an awarding
of six votes to the British empire in the
assembly, and is it true that Great Brit
ain win outyote us in the league of ma
tions and thereby control the leagues
action?
Answer-The consideration which led
TO assigning SIX VOTES 70 sen governing
portions of the British empire was that
they have, in effect, in all but foreign
policies, become autonomous, self govern
ing states, their policy in all but foreign
affairs being independent Of the control
of the British government and in many
respects dissimilar from it. But it is
not true that the British empire can out
vote us in the league of nations and
therefore control the action of the league,
because in any matter except the ad-
mission of new members in the league,
no action can be taken without the con-

of the league will under article TO- be
constantly directed toward safeguarding
the territorial integrity and political in
dependence Of China. 1t will. therefore,
absolutely prevent the further sp0liation
of China, promote the restoration in
China of the several privileges now long
enjoyed by foreign countries, and assure
China of the completion of the process
by which Shantung will presently be re-
turned to her in full sovereignty. in the
past there has been no tribunal which
could be resorted to for any of these
purposes.

nations covenant or the peace treaty
which directly or indirectly in any man
ner imposes on the United States any
obligations, moral or otherwise. of the
slightest character TO support England in
any way in case of revolt in Ireland?

with what they regarded as the sacred

Answer-It was not possible for the
peace conference TO act with regard to
the self determination of any territories
except those which had belonged to the
defeated empires, but in the covenant of
the league of nations it has set up for
the first time, in article IL, forum be-
fore which all claims Of self determine

of the world or the good understanding
between nations upon which the peace of
the world depends, can be brought.

WAR BREAD MORE NUTRITIOUS.
Dr.. Wiley Regrets Many Have Gone
Back to White Flour and Sugar.


Dr. Harvey w. Wiley, Hoosier who
became famous as an authority on the
proper food has been making a short
visit to Indiana friends. He says:
Il regret that the American people so
soon abandoned the restricted diet en-
forced by the wartime food admins
tration. The use of white -four instead
of the war mixture is step backward
so far as the public health is concerned.
The war bread was more nutritious and
in every particular more to be desired
than the bread we are using to-day
DR. Wiley says his family went on a
war diet before the rest of the country,
and the same diet is being kept up even
though restrictions have been to a large
measure removed He also thinks the
curtailment of sugar was a great thing
for the country, and is CORY the sugar
bowl has gone back on the restaurant
and hotel tables.
1t will be unfortunate, however, if the
people forget all the lessons they learned
during the war There are evidences
now that those lessons were learned for
a temporary period only, for numerous
people speak lightly Of what they did
under time of stress and have re-
sumed their old customs. Much good
came out of the war, as well as much
sorrow and suffering.
The conflict taught sacrifice, and with
that sacrifice came cleaner minds and
healthier bodies. 1t has been shown,
however, that the returning soldiers have
lost the additional weight they gained in
the army because they have forsaken
their regular habits. Those who stayed
at home and formed certain habits are
likewise losing the benefit derived, sim
ply because their memories are so short.

Making Good Tea.

Can you make as good tea as your
English cousin2 If not, then try this,
the English method. Use any good
brand of tea and an earthen teapot:
Fill the teapot with boiling water and
allow it to stand until the pot is hot to
the touch. Empty the teapot and place
the tea tone level teaspoon to the cup
in the pot and add the freshly boiled
water Allow this to stand ('draw"l
for three minutes Then serve as de.
sired, either with sugar and cream or
evaporated milk or "clear" without fix
ings. In either case, you have that much
appreciated beverage, perfect cup of
tea.
A delicious beverage for the summer
days is made by chilling and icing this
infusion. Be sure to pour the infusion
off or remove the tea ball after three
minutes Sleeping"
Fill tall glasses with cracked ice, add
teaspoonful of strawberry preserves, or
a maraschino cherry soIdded with cloves.
Pour in the cold tea infusion and serve.

A Slaughterhouse Where Inspection Is

him, or even a suspicion Of anything
wrong with him, slaughtertng him for
meat purposes would have been pro-

did not end the inquiry. After the
steer was slaughtered, another inspec,

Still another department Of agricul-

such portions of the carcass as went

rules were observed, that the water
supply was pure, that the workmen
had facilities for keeping themselves
clean, that the tables and other equip
mant did not become foul, that every
process was carried out with due
regard to cleanliness.
That system of inspection, you say,
ought to insure the purity of the meat
supply? Not at all. 1t does insure
purity of the meat inspected, but fed
eral inspection cannot be extended to
all meat; 1t does not go all the way.

federal meat inspection is concerned,
he can do as he plcases-kill diseased
cattle if he wants to, and allow his
plant to be as filthy as suits his idea
of convenience. Federal meat inspec-
ton applies only to plants whose prod
ucts cross state lines-plants that
slaughter in one state and sell some
part Of their products in other states.
Taking it the country over about p
per cent of the beef consumed comes
from plants that sell wholly within
the state where they are located and
that, therefore, cannot be reached by
the inspectors Of the United States
department Of agriculture. And as
long as there is - per cont-or ! per

RECOMPENSE.

Brief is the time for song,
Yet the brown thrush sings,
Careless of winters long
Or of vanished spring.
Grief is the lot of all,
Yet the meadows know
Only when gray rains fall
Will the harvest grow.
Swiftly the years are spanned.
No dreams abide;
But ~steadfast the great hills stand
TIL the stars have died.
Sing then thy song, nor care
If the winter near;
Know that the rains prepare
For the springtime's cheer.
Heed not the dying rose
BY the seasons slain;
Fair till eternity's close
Love shall remain!
