Alcohol Food" drawn from statements
in the Journal of the American Medical
Association headed Some Truths About
Alcohol" but has evidently overlooked
some of the truths" contained in the
medical journals article. There one reads
that
'All the more recent psychologist tests
with alcohol ingested even in small
amounts agree in the demonstration of
lessened organic efficiency resulting from
the absorption of the substance. From
two to four hours after moderate doses of
alcohol practically all persons are affected
with general depression of neur omuscular
processes, lessened visual acuity, and less
ened motor coordination of eye and hand"
That is to say, in everyday language,
that even the so-called moderate amounts
OF alcohol make the eye less keen, the
of the muscles by the nerves less eff
cient. The differences of opinion in the
medical profession as to calling alcohol
a food arises chiefly from this action of
alcohol on the nervous system so like
that of poisonous drugs, SO different from
the action of foods The inconsistency of
the label appears more clearly to some
medical writer's than to others
If alcohol were newly discovered sub
stance and were taken into the 1aborato-
ries to be examined as to its proper place
among other substances, there is not the
OBJ IF hot IN
anyone to put it with foods, for its action
is the opposite of foods in all respects.
One of its properties, not an action is
that, like food, it is oxidizable, that is, it
can unite, under certain conditions, with
oxygen, which tears it apart, as it does
wood in a stove, when the drafts for the
admission of oxygen are opened and the
match-the necessary conditions ap-
piled. When any oxidizab1e substance is
thus burned" whether in a stove, or
machine engine, or in the human body, by
a slower process of burning, heat, or "en-
ergy" is liberated.
If coal which also lberates energy
when oxidized, is burned in a stove in
tended only for wood in time something
happens to the stove, or to the house,
showing that coal is not the proper kind
of fuel for that kind of stove. Like
wise, when alcohol is oxidized in the hui
man engine, certain things happeR like
the damage to the nervous system cited
by the Journal of the American Medical
Association, showing that it is not the
proper kind of fuel for the human body.
Then why does anyone i'll the medical
profession call it a fuel food? Chiefly be-
cause the famous chemist Liebig started
calling it that in period of chemistry
nearer the dark ages than the present,
and subsequent writers like Dickens with
the saying "as dead as a door nail" TAX
ing the wisdom of their ancestors to be in
the smile, resolve that their unhallowed
hands shall not disturb it.
In Class by Itself
The difficulty of adjusting the cid fuel
food" opinion with the new evidence of
its poisonous action on the nervous sys-
tenn is amusingly obviated in the book
prepared for the British Liquor Control

dinner is to be more or less formal
q white damask tablecloth may be
used, with white crepe paper favors
decorated with patriotic colored rib

in the House Of Commons tonight
by government spokesman.
Foreign Minister Austen Cham
berlain, admitting the seriousness
Of the situation, appealed to both
Conservatives and Laborites to re-
frain from anything that~'would
further inflame relations.
Not to Discuss China.
The foreign minister declared that
Britain would not avail itself of
the offer Of NJ. Tchitcherin, Soviet
foreign minister, to discuss the Chi
nese question and other issues be-
tween Britain and Russia.
Although the foreign minister APP
pealed to members Of his own
Conservative party and Of the La
Dor opposition not to do or say
anything to inflame the presen.
tense situation, it was pointed out
that feeling already has reached
such a high pitch that even the
attempts of Mr.. Chamberlain to
pour oil on the troubled waters
may prove futile.
1t has been apparent to close OBJ
servers for some time that Mr..
Chamberlain and Prime Minister
Baldwin have been almost alone in
their desire to continue diplomatic
relations with the Soviet.
A stormy scene broke over the
House Of Commons when a Labor.

Foreign Minister Chamberlain re.

Mr.. Chamberlain replied that it
was not a condition that those de-
mands be accepted before liquida-
ton of the situation. An uproar
followed when ,MacKinder pressed
for more definite answer, and a
Tory member shouted, ASK the
Chinese"
MacKinder, shaking his fist to-
ward the Tories, shouted, "I'Il land
you one"
The speaker interviewed and called
the Labor member to order,
Chamberlain refused to promise
to consult the House Of Commons
before addressing Russia regarding
the Chimes esituation.
He said if a note became neces-
sary. the government must be In
a position to act freely. This
again aroused the Laborites, who,
led by J. r. Clynes, pointed out
that the Kings address at the
opening Of the House Of Commons
expressed the hope that peaceful
relations would be maintained with
Russia.
Watching Needed.
To this Chamberlain replied that
the situation with Russia needed
the most careful watching for the
protection of British interests He
said he could only promise that if
it should become necessary to
change the policy toward Russia
he would give the earliest possible
