900 JAPANESE
MAY EMIGRATE
TO SOUTH AMERICA
Brazil Concludes Negotia.
tions for Colonization
by YELLOW Men.
by the Associated Press.

New York. Feb. disagreement
has been reached between Brazil and
Japan for the migration to Brazil of
100000 japanese for purposes of
colonization, the Brooklyn Daily
Eagle said Thursday, it had learned
on good authority.
Under the terms Of the pact it is
understood that the japanese govern
mcnt is to pay the cost of immigra-
ton. about IS a man. and the Braz-
ilian government is to take over the
japanese when they arrive, distribut-
ing them to agricultural sections
where they are needed.
According to the newspaper, the
agreement was reached after her
Siberian colonization enterprises had
failed to materalize.
Brazil was said TO have welcomed
the agreement from an industrial
standpoint because of her need for
cheap labor in developing her rice
fields and fruit and berry raising
ranches.
The newspaper points out that the
proposed immigration also would have
political significance, offsetting the
influence of the large German and
Italian colonies already established.

Must Use Care in
Selection of Foods
Declares DIR. Swain

DIR. Loring L. Swain. of Boston.
delivered a practical talk on Foods
and their Relation to Our Lives" at
the regular meeting of the Laymen's
League of the All Souls Unitarian
church Friday evening. DR.. Swain,
who recently returned from q three
months consultation visit with DR..
Percy Wilde of England is partner
of Dr. Joel Goldthwait who did con-
spicious work as head of the United
States Orthopocdic work in the
World War. He said in part:
Centuries ago it was thought that
God brought disease and infection
into the world, but made prevalent
in the immediate locality remedies
for the same in the parts of trees,
herbs and plants. This theory of
remedies is somewhat true, as in
countries where malarin prevails
quinine in abundance is found. Ma
ture has also provided abundantly
for the diseases Of mankind in the
foods that we eat, especially in their
natural state.
Abnormalties in children, ricketts,,
scurvy. pellagra, and other diseases
are caused by deficiency of certain
minerals and vitamines due to faulty
eating. Our present methods of pre-
pared fiours. cereals. and other So
called "pure-food's products are re-
sponsible for this, together with lack
of proper knowledge of the prepara-
ton and cooking of vegetables,
breads and other foods making up
our diet.
Certain foods are base forming
which are most necessary for the
maintenance of health. Other foods
are acid-forming and should be eat
en- sparingly or acidosis and ill
health may follow.
Oranges. apples. lemons, and fruits
of all kinds,> whole grains, such as
wholewheat. corn. Scotch oatmeal,
rye. greens of all kinds, and vege-
tables; raisins, prunes, brown sugar,
honey in the comb maple syrup, old
fashioned molasses. milk and eggs
are base forming and tend to neu-
tralizc the acids of other fruits, and
should be eaten abundantly.
Meats. cheese, white bread Of all
