lthe hydrochloric acid which is re- creted by the cells of the stomach as an aid to digestion. Various diets have been developed free from large amounts of salt, but before one undertakes any unusual diet of this character, he will do well to consult physician and make certain that the diet Is adapted to his particular needs.
 Another mineral element of great importance is iodine. Iodine is particularly associated with the functioning of the thyroid gland. The amounts required fin the hu- man body are very small and are easily available in the form of sea- foods. and plants raised in terri tories where the soil is rich in this substance. There are, however, many districts in this country in which the vegetables and plants are grown in sold that is very poor in iodine flor example. the Great Lakes district and the Pacific northwest.
 In such territories, seafood is not common article of diet. Hence, physicians advise particu- larly that growing children re- ceive small amounts of iodine in the form of tablets or liquid prepa- rations which can be prescribed by a phlsician and which have the virtue of filling the deficiency, thereby preventing the enlarge ment of the thyroid gland, known as simple goiter.

SINCERITY OF SOVIET POLICY
 IS DOUBTFUL
Russians Wary of Offer to Return to Homeland
 and Be Forgiven

paris.--As result of the changed policy of the Soviet gov ernmcnt, as manifest in Stalin's speech, Russian Socialists emigres in Europe expect an invitation to return to their homeland after 14 1 years of exile.
 M. Alexander Kerensky. provi- sional president of Russia after the first revolution, doubts the sin cerity of reports from Moscow sug- gestlng the invitation is impend- ing, but says that If the Soviet gov 1 ernment does act the emigres will insist upon changed policy in Russia. Included among the emigres are thousands of trained engineers, doctors, educators, mecha mics, skilled workers and farmers. They have found work elsewhere and most of them have improved their knowledge of their trade or pro- fession by contact with the outside world.
 Long Time
 "f am convinced that 1t will be long time before the frontiers of Russia will be opened to our ex- Hes" M. Kerensky said.
 "Our return would crctainly be conditional upon the restoration of humane treatment. Political pris- Oners would have to be released and brought back from Siberia. The repression of peasantry would have 10 cease. We would insist upon the freedom of the press, freedom of religion, reopening of the churches and liberty of speech.
 Tt is doubtful, however, If the present government would grant us those conditions and guarantees, for that would mean the end of the Soviec regime. 1 am convinced that Stalin's speech was not so much mark A change In Soviet policy as 10 facilitate the obtaining of foreign credits"
 M. Q. Minor, chief of the Rus sian socialist party, now exilcd In Paris. doubts whether many Rus sian cxiIes would care to return to Russia. Most of them have bet tered themselves and would be wary of Soviet promises.
 Jails Filled

 The aged chief of the group of Russian sociaI-democrats, M. A. Potresoff. q friend of Lenin in his youth. often imprisoned by the czars. doubts whether communism has really changed.
 T will never believe in the evo- Iuti0n of communism. nor in co- operation of Bolshevists and their political victims" M. Potreson said

TOronto.--It Is now possible, through an improved road system in western Canada, 10 make q tour of the land of big game in the modern automobile.
 The dominion's big game pre- serves in the northwest can be reached from the north by way of Edmonton to Jasper park, from the south by way of Calgary to Bann, and from Spokane. Seattle and Victoria, E. C., through Mt Kevelstoke park.
 While game laws prohibit fire arms in the game preserves, IL is as much fun shooting big game with a camera as 1t Is with rife. Because of these prOhibitive game laws the animals are comparatively tame and easily aDproachable.
 The motOrist who wants the thrill of meeting 4 real live black or grizzly bear on the highway can have his wish fulfilled in this terri tory. Not only bears, but shy noun tain goats, buffalo and other ami rnaIs are 10 be found in the more nan ,bDV SIuhIt t VI VII S'h land.
 Numerous Parks
 Coming from mid western points into Vancouver, scenic mountain highways climb among towering peaks. These roads lead into Revcl- stoke, kootenay. Bann, YOhO and Glacier parks. There are no con necting roads as yet in Jasper park, the largest of them all, with an area of 5.38O square miles.
 Highways from all directions into the parks are first class gravel roads with some stretches paved, and all kept in good condition. More than 400 miles of roadway actually traverse the parks, while over 1000 miles of trails wind heir way into the animal country within park boundaries.
 As for the most part the interior country of this section Is wild. accommodations are al- most all travcler can get. A few hotels and inns are scattered trough the territory, but they are Tar between.
 The camps generally have small a bins to offer tourists, Wlth norses and boats for hide. There s excellent fishing throughout this entire district.
 Animals Well Protected
 Tens of thousands of big game inimals. many of which were not ong ago threatened with cxtinc- ion by hunters, now thrive and multiply in the parks, where the Dnly shooting that can be done Is with Il camera.
 Here in their native surround ngs live All the big game that any | hunter wants To bag. There are |, moose and antelope, and mule | deer and caribou roam in thou sands.

BOSTON, Nov. 17.-Appearance
Of Newton D. Baker as principal
speake< at the Boston Chamber of
Commerce luncheon today threw
new interest into the movement
afoot here to block nomination of
+ Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt as
the 1892 Democratic presidential
car didate.
Bakers speech concerned inter
national debts, and he sought here,
as he has for months, to avoid be-
ing involved in presidential politics.
He has refused to sanction any
activity in his behalf, despite the
fact sentiment is being cultivated
for him all over the nation.
Numerous Democratic politicians
we're among the luncheon guests.
These included Frank J. Donahue,
state chairman, who a few days
ago referred to Baker and Gov
ernor Albert c. Ritchie of Mary
land as ideal presidential candi-
dates. Richie spoke here, adding
support to his presidential aSpir-
ations.
Curley for Roosevelt
At the same time, Mayor James
M Curley, fighting for a convention
delegation, pledged to Roosevelt,
twice within a week has denounced
favorite son activity, declaring it is
fostered by Adventures and self
appointed Micawbres. .
This split, widened by consider
able personal feeling between Cur
ley and Donahue, provides the open
ing for a factional fight of conse-
quenceS.
Massachusetts is important fight
ing ground. It's eighteen electoral
votes went to Smith in 1928 Dem
ocrats have the governorship and
the two seats in the United States
senate. Massachusetts appears in
clined to follow Smiths guidance.
State Watching Smith
There is a belief in the state, not
supported, however, by any known
word of Smiths, that he is cold to-
ward Roosevelt and is ready to
throw his support elsewhere if
another candidate appears to have a
real chance of being nominated.
A tip on what New England is
thinking politically is expected Jan
5 when New Hampshire fills the
congressional seat of the late
Fletcher Hale, Republican. When he
was reelected a year ago, his 1925
majority was cut in half.
The district covers the lower hall
of the state and includes the in
dustrial textile section. 1t includes
the city of Manchester which went
Democratic in municipal elections
this month for the first time in a
decade.
Democrats will turn on their
heavy artillery in the hope of re-
peating their sensational victory in
Michigan this month when they
captured a congressional seat which
had not gone Democratic in more
than thirty years.
