INITIATIVE

Some of the men who have been work
ing for the CWA, or who have received re-
lief through some other government
agency, are beginning to talk as though
they are wards of the government.
The quicker they Danish that thought
from their minds the better it will be for
them ana the country as a Whole.
Government relief can't go on for
ever. 1t must come to an end shortly else
the tax burden will come to be unbear-
able.
Those men who speak lightly of gov
eminent money, making such remarks as,
Jaw, it's government money-what's the
difference? "-should realize that the mon
ey is derived from taxpayers, and that
there is limit to the endurance even of
taxpayers.

country's business leaders to put more men

people at purchasing wages and to do it
now. Only thus can we continue recovery
and restore the balance we seek"
1t is foolish for any man to think that,

owes me a living" There is no more
SoundneSS in that assertion than there is in

FISH AND SEA FOODS

When Nature turned pirate, and set
in operation those forces that leach the
riches of land to wash them into the sea,
she provided a system for supplying
aquatic plant and animal life with those
food elements necessary to their welfare
Continuously, for countless ages, this
pillaging of the store-house of land has
persisted until the waters of the universe
are vast crucibles" in which are found
the minerals and elements of earth.
Fish and sea foods living in this
medium, appropriate to their needs these
inorganic minerals and transform them
into organic substances suitable for the
use of man. Not many foods from land
embrace so many nutritive elements of
value as do the fish and sea foods.
The dietary value of the sea food pro-
ducts depends upon several factors: num-
Der, amount and quality of food elements
contained; composition and texture of the
tissues; digestibility and flavor. Many of
the sea foods contribute four of the five
classes of foods necessary in the diet;
neutrality-suspicious., minerals, fats and vita
Minis. Carbohydrates, which are lacking
in most sea foods are furnished by the
usual meat accessories in the meal.
Protein: Sea food products are ex-
cellent sources of proteins. They are
easily and thoroughly digested, absorbed
and assimilated. The muscles are juicy
and loose of structure and the connective
tissues of delicate texture so that when
properly cooked, they are more easily
penetrated by digestive juices than the
meats whose muscular and fibrous tissues
are stronger and tougher.
Minerals: Essential to the healthful
functioning of the body processes, such as
heart beat, respiration, coagulation of the
blood, ETC., are the various minerals sup
piled by food. We are told by scientists
that fish and sea foods as a class possesses
those needed by the human body. Calcium
and PHOSPHORUS for bones and teeth;
iodine for thyroids; copper and iron for
"rich red blood; sulphur, magnesium,
chlorine, sodium and others, that enter in
to the complexities of health and vitality.
Fats: Lean fish and fat! There is
nice distinction, not only from the stand
point of cookery, but also, nutrition. In
digestibility the fats of fish compare with
those of land, providing the melting point
is the same. Fat fish contain more fat
soluble vitamins than most foods, but do
not have the high vitamin content of the
fat stored in fish livers.
Vitamins: Fish and sea foods con-
tain vitamins A, B, C, d, and probably
others. The oil stored in the livers of
fishes. such as the cod and others contain
large amounts of vitamins and are of high
therapeutic value. Since vitamins are
found in fish fats other than the livers, food
authorities suggest that Certain fish
in the diet may then make cod-liver oil
dosage less urgent in building resistance"
