QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Sugar and Diabetes

Su&6E 01AW D10UVtCS
Question: Joe w. asks: Evil. you
please tell me il sugar causes dia-
betes? Can it be cured by fasting and
dieting?"
Answer: Diabetes is caused from
an inability Of the pancreas to secrete
it's normal amount of fluid, the active
Ingredient of which Is inSulin. This
substance is necessary for the diges-
ton of starches and sugars. The use
of too much starch or sugar in the
diet may indirectly be the cause of
diabetes, but the ingestion OF too
large quantities Of carbohydrate foods
is likewise the direct or indirect cause
of many diseases. The only cure of
diabetes is through fasting and diet
ing. The diet should exclude both
starches and sugars for a considerable
period OF time.
Figs and Dates
Question: N. j. G. asks: with
what combinations should one eat
figs and dates?"
Answer: Figs may be used as a
dessert with any protein combination
or with sweet milk. Dates combine
best with buttermilk or any of the
Tactic acid or aoidophilus milks.
Rainwater
Question: M. G.. H. asks: Can
one get cedar poisoning from drink
ing rainwater from a roof covered
with cedar shingles? Do you con-
slider rainwater safe for drinking if
well strained and stored in a clean,
-cemented ciStern?"
Answer: There have been cases of
poisoning reported from the causes
you have mentioned. The safest wa
ter to drink is that which has been
distilled. This process remove all
types of poisons and contamination,
and is the only way to produce pure
water.

Who Said What?

Now that General Pershing has declared that he die
not make that famous Lafayette, we are here" speech in
Paris during the war, we are beginning to have an un-
easy and skeptical attitude toward famous remarks made
by other great men. For P%ersning's supposed speech
was made in modern Paris, amid all of the modern
devices for setting down exactly what happens; what
possibilities for error must there not have been in the
days before shorthand and the omnipresent newspaper
reporter?
Did Lawrence, for example, really say, Don't give up
this ship? Did Nelson really declare England expects
every man to do his duty? Did Grant declare that he
proposed to fight it out on this line if it takes all sum
mer?" Did Patrick Henry demand that he be given
liberty or death?
All of this is disturbing. General Pershing really
should not have disilusioned us. That Lafayette, we
are here" was too good a legend to kill. He ought to
have left us believing in it.

BUSINESS IS READY
TO MOVE UPWARD
Many Factors Indicate Credit
Expansion and Price
Restoration.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, July At Is increas-
terials for major upswing of sur
prising speed and proportions are ac-
cumulating in the unprecedented credit
position Of the Reserve system, the
curious currency situation, the con-
tinued imports Of gold, the abnormally
unbalanced condition of commodity
stocks, says the Business Week in its
report covering the week ending July
4. All that Is necessary to set them of
Is sufficiently sustained spark Of gen.
eral confidence, generated by electric
leadership.
These factors alone are automatically
forcing q reversal of deflation, and are
being strengthened by decisive consid-
erations OF domstic and international
political and financial policy, all point
ing 1mperatively toward credit expan-
sion and price restoration They are
bound to bring recovery In the course
Of time, and the longer the delay the
more powerful their explosive force is
likely to be.
AS the second half begins the BUSH
ness outlook oscillates uncertainty in
the sensitive balance Of sentiment. The
psychological stimulus of the mora
forum and other emergency efforts to
insure stability in the situation abroad
has slackened. Security and commod-
ity markets have sagged or are marking
time till favorable news offers further
nourishment for enthusiasm.
Meanwhile business indicators, except
In certain sensitive retail lines, still
register no concrete effect of increased
confidence. Our index estimated early
on preliminary figures for the last
week Of June, indicates a further re-
cession, rejecting intensified seasonal
contraction Of activity. The index, for
the week ended June ~, stood at TAI
per cent. against 76.0 in the preceding
week. and 1908 per cent In the cor
responding week last year.

Buying for Profit

If we decide to go back to first prin-

bonds and high-grade preferred stocks
instead of specializing in the market
with them 1t will be necessary to re-
state the fundamentals Of sound invest

ten them, first because of the mama
for common stocks which afflicted us In
1928 and 1929, and, secondly, because so
many feel they must recoup the losses
sustained when that famous bull market
collapsed, and believe such recovery
cannot be made by the slow and thrill.

specializing.
And vet the paper profits We made in
that hysterical market were not Kept,

had never entered it. In the flrst place
linen there Is never any hurry ABOUT m

make quick decisions, but the investor
can take his time. In fact. II he Is TO
be successful he must take time. He must
obtain all the facts. or all the facts that
are obtainable. before he makes COM

To be sure there is no clearly defined

in Investment is to provide income with
safety of principal. and the motive In
speculation Is to make profit by huc-
tuations in prices. 1t is nothing against
an investment that 1t has possibilities
OF price enhancement, but that IS not
the first thing to look for. A Spectator
never objects If there is a return on the
security he is carrying In speculative
account, but the return is secondary
consideration. Now, no one can be as
sured Of continuance Of income on an
investment, nor Of the repayment OF the
principal at maturity If 1t is a bond. or
its sale in the market somewhere near
the price originally paid If 1t is a stock,
unless all the data pertaining to the
issue concerned are gathered and pa
tiently studied. If we lack the facilities
to do this for ourselves We must find
some one to do it for us, and even then
we ought to check and recheck the data
