great part of the nation is en-
gagged in emergency food relief
problems presented by few fami-
lies in some communities to thou
sands of families in the cities de-
pendent upon some organization to
supply them with food.
in order that food at low cost
may be distributed to the best ad-
vantage booklets and pamphlets
have been prepared by government
food specialists and scientists in
collaboration with the best medi-
cal authorities in the United States.
This literature is also helpful to
the vast army of women who seek
to spend their food dollars wisely
and well for their families.
A pamphlet entitled Emergency
Food Relief and Child Health" pre-
pared by Martha M. Eliot, M D.,
director child hygiene division,
Children's Bureau, U. S. Dept. of
Labor, is particularly helpful. DR..
Eliot WAS assisted by E. ". Nc

versity; Lafayette B. Mendel, Ph.D.,

lumbia University, and others. The
food needs of growing children,
according to this group of scien-
lists, present the most important of
all the problems to be met in plan
ing relief budgets. Growth in
creases the demand not only upon
the quantity of food but also upon
the quality. Growth also hastens
the i'll effects of an inadequate
diet. Certain specific inadequacies
in diet result in deficiency diseases
such as ricketts,, scurvy, and pei
1agra. But the results of prolonged
general undertaking commonly
known as general malnutrition"-
while they may be less dramatic
and more easily overlooked, are not
less serious. In time of economic
stress children may suffer both
types of damage unless the diet is
carefully safeguarded.
Nutritive Essentials
The standard of all relief should
be such as to provide a fully adj
equate diet, which allows variety
and an ample margin of safety in
all the nutritive essentials, and
every effort to maintain such a
standard should be made even un-
der emergency conditions. In order
to provide the foods necessary for
health and growth this diet must
contain, first of all, the protective
foods-milk, cod-liver oil (for
young children, vegetables, and
fruit. These provide safeguards to
health and growth not found to a
sufficient extent in other foods. In
addition, an adequate diet must
include certain other foods-those
which supply energy dread. cereals
