TO CURB SLANDERERS

An effort to curb the tongues of Congressmen who are given to making reckless and sanderous statements concerning objects of their displeasure is in a resolution introduced in the House by Congressman Fort of New Jersey
 It is we'll known to every observer that both Senate and House members frequently take advantage of their legal immunity and make attacks upon citizens which would probably result in damage suits if made by pri vate individuals By getting away with this line of stuff back home who beeive he must be telling the truth have the lowdown on one not knowing that Con- gressmen say any thing and get away with it. for they are immune.
 While Mr. Forts resolution would not make Con- gressnen liable to prosecution 1t would give injured persons the right to make complaint the House which might then discipline the offending member according to it's own rules, if deemed proper.

 SEWARD, BIB sC0RE

ANCHORAGE, Jan., 27, Especial to the Gateway)- The rampant IAnchorape Moose unmercifully smote the Seward Bremen basket ball team Saturday night 58 to 29 in a game that caused the studio building to rock with cheers from the spectators who iubliantly dem onstrated their glee as the Moose slashed thru the guards of the pre- viously victorious Seward team for 32 to five lead at the halt ' Differing entirely from the initial period the second half took on the appearance of real game, the Moose getting 26 and the Bremen 24. Other than had been expected the large playing floor here proved a great factor in the Firemen's un- doing. The Moose forwards seemed everywhere especially in the clear under the basket from where most of the shots were made though it seemed to make no difference for Malcolm McKinnon, marauding Moose, wherever he took-off from. McKinnon put everything thru the hoop but His trunks, accounting for 26 of his teams points.

 Coach Groth sent Peyton in for Turner in the second half, stand ing pat with this lineup for the re- mainder of the game. Andresen twisted an ankle in the final quar- ter but played on in pain. He may be replaced by Groth in the second game.
 TO a man the Seward players praised the fine referee and umpire work of Sly and Thompson who handled the fast game most effi- ciently. After the game both teams were entirely exhausted.
 Seward enters the second game not down hearted but confident of winning and tying the series.

Times Health Hint
By Robert Terry Shannon
DIET AND HEALTH
By DR.. Logan CLendening-

The decline in the death rate
from tuberculosis is q very strik-
ing example of the healthier
living conditions Of our time.
If one drew q line represent
ing the death rate from tuber.
culosis since the year 1850 1t
would resemble a steep hill.
There has been only one inter-
ruption Of its steady downward
course-that was during the
last years Of the war. Then the
incidence Of tuberculosis in
creased for a while.
These figures are true not
only for the United States, but
for all countries where there
are reliable vital statistics.
The question arises: What Is
the cause Of this? There is
probably not one single cause.
Partly 1t is due to better ia
cilities for treating and detect
ing the disease. But the decline
began long betore Cnere was
any widespread anti-tubercu.
loSis movement. There is no
question, however, that the dis
ease has declined far more rap
idly since the organization Of
the anti-tuberculosiS campaign.
Good food at reasonable
prices is certainly an important
factor. This was probably the
main reason for the temporary
increase in tuberculosis after
the war. Germany, where the
food situation was the worst,
also suffered the most,
Along with lack Of food goes
naturally poor living conditions.
Unemployment is always fol
lowed by a wave Of tuberculosis.
That country or section where
there are high wages is likely
to be the one where there Is
little tuberculosis.
