Swan Boat Saves
Youth From Peril
In Upset Canoe

The Swan Boat on the Tidal
Basin, ordinarily used to give
joy-rides to children and their
adult friends, played an impor-
tant part in saving life yesterday
when United States park police,
directed by Sergt. William F.
Shelton, requisitioned the craft
and rescued Joseph j. Blick Of
Plainf1eld, N. j., 18-year-old
youth, from drowning when a
sudden gust capsized his canoe.
Blick, here on a sightseeing
trip, decided to try q canoe ride
in the Tidal Basin. When he
was about in the center of the
lake a gust capsized his craft.
Park police responded promptly
to cries of distress and a crowd
on the shore cheered the rescue.
Blick was taken to Emergency
Hospital, where he was treated
for exposure, and later released,
seeming little the worse for his
experience.

PROPOSED MARKET
!. zON|NG IS FOUGHT
Property Owners and GAL
Iaudet Head Oppose Pat
/ terson Estate Change.

Proponents of additional park and
Fairgrounds and advocates of expan-
sion of the market development in the
vicinity of Fifth street and Florida ave-
nue. northeast came to grips in a de-
termined contest before the coming
Commission yesterday over the petition
for charging the second commercial
area in the section.
Hundreds Of property owners in wide
II scattered sections of the city are
awaiting the decision in this and the
IS other changes discussed at the
lengthy hearing. The commission will
meet in executive session tomorrow to
pass judgment on the proposals.
In the market case, proponents urged
the need and the logic of enlarging the
second commercial classification so as
to permit completion of the $1,000,000
market project there, whereas opponents
charged ii would be a detriment to the
Patterson tract park and to the adjoin-
ing buildings of Gallaudet College. and
denied the necessity of expanding the
existing commercial zone.
Stanton c. Peelle, representing
market promoters, recited that a half
million dollars already has been spent
for the commission house project along
Fifth street above Florida avenue and
declared JnaJ the remaining 10 acres
Of the tract involved in the coming
petition should be changed to second
commercial classification so that pro-
vision might be made for farmers and
retail phases of the development.
Cites Union Station Act.
He contended that when Congress
passed the Union Station act it really
placed this area. bordering on the rail-
road tracks, in the realm of industrial
use. He insisted that the commission
house business already provided for
coilld not succeed there without pro-
vision for the farmers who would be
located on a rear portion of the area
involved in the coming petition.

adequate playground.
Mr.. Peelle commended that II the
Government wished 10 preserve areas
for possible future park development
this should be done at Government ex-
pense rather than at the cost of the
owners of private property. He stated
that the tract has been under the cloud
of possible condemnation for park pur-
poses since 1901, with the adoption Of
the Mcmillan act. and that since part
of the area now had been finally taken
for park purposes the remainder should
not longer be restricted so that It can

the coming change and Henry A. Friday,
president Of the Maryland, Virginia and
District of Columbia Farmers Market
Association, stated that IS per cent Of
the members of the body favored as
their new location the Patterson tact
site.
Mr.. Peelle explained that the western
section of the tract adjoining the rail-
road tracks Is planned as warehouse
sites.
The proposed change, however, was
vigorously denounced by DR.. Percival
Hall, president of the Columbia Insti-
tuition for the Deaf, which operates
Gallaudet College, who contended that
the change was both unnecessary and
Objectionable.
He pointed out that Gallaudet Col
lege, located on the adjoining area of
103 acres since 1857. had land valued
at 81, 200 900 and buildings at $500, 00O

heirs owned thousands of square feet OF
land west of the present market de-
velopment which might be used for the
expansion of the market. II the strip

he said, the matter then would pass out
of the hands of the commission and
the owners in the future could put
much more Objectionable structures on
the site than those now planned and
within 20 years the area would become
low type and unsightly place.
Fears Danger to Children.
He urged consideration of the fact
that the Government has spent $400, 900
for the park and declared that while
the opening of Sixth street northeast
would provide access to the area, the
loading and backing of trucks would
create hazard to children going to the
park. Dr. Hall also contended the pos
sible second commercial developments
along Sixth street would injure the
value of the Gallaudet property for
school use.
Evan H Tucker, president of the
Northeast Citizens ASSOCIATE ton, opposing
the change. urged that the area be kept
in the residential classification, so that
it would encourage the Government to
buy the section as additional play
ground area for the community.
Mr.. Peelle, in rebuttal. however. said
that this appeared to be the gratitude"
of some residents of the section to the
heirs of the Patterson estate for permit
ting Northeast residents to use the I'M
developed section for many years with
out cost as a playground section.
Mr. Tucker had pointed to the need
of the site as playground by citing
that he had during past years witnessed
many base ball and foot ball games
staged on the area, as an evidence of

vitamins and Stomach Ulcer.

In the United States and Canada
the consumption of devitaminized food
has constantly increased in the past few
decades and with this growing fond
ness for manufactured, artificial, refined
or sophisticated food we have observed
an apparently increasing prevalence of
stomach ulcer. I say the increasing
prevalence Of ulcer in the stomach, or
duodenum, Is apparent: possibly it Is in
fact mainly a matter Of more accurate
diagnosis, for with better education and
q rising scale of intelligence more suf-
ferers from stomach trouble" or poor
digestion" seek medical care.
BY devitaminized foods we mean re-
fined sugars. sirups, Starches, cereal
products such as breakfast foods"
candy. pastries, cakes, sweets, desserts
in general, chemically treated fats and
oils, butter substitutes, manufactured
substitute for fresh milk. cured meats,
drug store lunches and tabloid or con-
centrated nutritiyeS, canned, smoked,
dried or sailed fish or meat, shelf
groceries. polished rice, white -four and
refined corn meal. The original sources
or natura! states of the foods from
which all these staples are derived are
as rule fairly right in vitamins which
are removed or destroyed in the course
Of manipulation or preparation Of the
food for the consumer.
Here again I would call attention to
the great need for human material
for experimental use. Nearly all of our
present knowledge OF the vitamins rests
upon animal experimentation, and we
cannot apply such knowledge in human
nutrition, without long years of OBJ
servation and experience. Experience
is a slow and difficult kind of expert
mentation. Turn over to science States

Your Baby and Mine


Preparing vegetables of which the
small child takes only q few spoonfuls
Is always regarded as a nuisance. Per-
haps some OF this annoyance is the
direct result Of the daily feeding OF
carrots and spinach, which the mother
feels are the only safe vegetables for
baby, and which the rest of the family
can't be wheedled into eating more than
once weekly.
There are so many vegetables that
baby can enjoy. and 1t is so generally
taken for granted that the family will
have one or two fresh or canned
vegetables daily that these vegetable
feelings need not be so much extra
labor.
Small portions Of the vegetables
cooked for the family can be taken out
and run through sieve and seasoned
for baby. Slowed vegetables and yere-
table soups just for babies are now sold
by leading dealers everywhere. They
are carefully prepared and unseasoned.
so that one has only to open a tiny
glass jar or can.
Even these may be too much for one
feeding, so they should be divided into
equal parts, the remainder kept in the
glass jar on ice and brought to a boil
the next day before serving. In a very
cold ice box the vegetables or SOUP
could last for three days. Be sure YOUR
ice box is very cold. Some Of them are
just cool.
Mrs. r. E. O. suggests a way in which
she has managed this vegetable feeding.
In order to have daily vegetable feed
tngS for the baby" she says, Il steril-
lied two small glass jars. I cook two
vegetables daily and put them in the
sterilized jars. These keep on ice and
when needed put the vegetables in a
ramekin and heat them in the oven.
Thus baby can have the same vege-
tables on Monday and Wednesday with
no extra trouble"
Carrots and spinach are excellent
vegetables, but even baby gets tired of
them and there is no reason why he
shouldn't enjoy many others. Peas,
green string beans, squash, beets, as
paragus, caulif1ower and tomatoes are
all stimulating to baby's taste and will
be eaten with relish.
The way in which vegetables are
cooked makes them palatable or taste
less. To cook vegetables in seas Of wa
ter and then drain the water into the
sink Is to leave a tasteleSS, Soggy, color
less mass Of cellulose behind with all
the valuable mineral salts nouriShing
the drain and not the baby. Steaming
vegetables is the best possible method
and next best is to cook them over a
low fire with the tiniest bit of water In
tightly covered vessel. Then the
juices can be incorporated into the
sauce and served over them.
If large chunks of vegetables are seen
in baby's stool, they need more thor
ough cooking. To find small traces in
the stool is natural. This indigestible
portion is the bulk for which vege-
tables are in part valuable.

would not only remove some OF the
stigma of Imprisonment from society
but it would be of great benefit to
society, and morally. If not physically,
to the convict as well.
Because of this inapplicability Of
nutrition knowledge to the test Of
human experience, it is very difficult
to use the newer knowledge of nutri-
ton in practice. On the other hand,
it would be wrong to teach that every
infant must have cod liver oil daily If
the additional expense is not abso-
lutely necessary for the normal health
and growth of the child. On the other
hand, it would be unfair and unjust to
discourage the use of taples of long
proved economy, or to urge the more
liberal use of foods not so cheap unless
we are quite certain that these recon-
mendations are the best solution of the
problem.
Then there is another difficulty in
the use of this newer knowledge. For
instance. there is good evidence that
a diet deficient in yitamins predisposes
to the development of gastric or
some of the best sources of such Vita
minis are, according to our older views.
Objectionable items in the diet of one
who already has gastric or duodenal
ulcer. This clash of older and newer
ideas will require long, long years Of
observation and experience to settle it.
Give us all the prisoners Of the State,
and we can settle the question in a
year by means of simple experiments
with the diet Of those who happen to
have gastric or duodenal ulcer.
appeal to every reader to help this
humanitarian reform by giving moral
support to the scientific use of the
States prisoners.
