the benefit Of every advancement made m

Of ifs value.
Following the perfection of practical

You doubtless are NOT entirely familiar with
lsyo&iased Milk and It Is no more than right
that We tel you briefly about it.
As you know, Vitamin D Is the Sunshine"
vitamm which in minute quantities stimu-
hates the cells and helps the human body
utilize calcium and phosphorus minerals,
which are essential elements IN the formation
and nourishment of bones and teeth.
Vitan,in D has been known and under
stood for some years, but we now realize
more fully what an important part it plays
in protecting babies against rickets or delayed
hardening of the bones. In extreme cases 1t is
the cause of bowiegs, knock-knees, under-de-
veloped chest, defective teeth and similar
conditions
The diet of man IS generally found to be
deficient IN Vitamin D more often than in
ehe case of any other food factor.
Perhaps the most serious fact is the
widespread deficiency of Vitamin D and the
extent of ricketts, and other consequences.
For every extreme case Of visible ricketts,,
there are many milder cases where the
evidence is TO be seen under the X-ray.
Medical authorities have estimated that
from 50 to IS per cent Of all children have
ricketts, IN some degree.
You wonder why Nature failed rs so-for
she did not put even small fraction Of
enough Vitamin D m our dict Few foods
have even little. Most foods have none.
Nature did not fail as, really-she simply
dsdn't foresee our sheltered mode of life.
She nneant Cor ~ 70 receive this vitamin

Who Needs Vitamin d MiIk?

" nv lV6CUS EENUtbU IL 1AEtHs
Our Irradiated Milk is for all the people, It
supplies children with the necessary calcium,
phosphorus and Vitamin d to prevent ricketts,.
Whenever it is necessary to supplement breast
feeding with cows milk, especially choose
Irradiated Milk, which contains an abundant
supply of Vitamin D. Theusual milk is almost
entirely lacking in this food factor. The nurs-
ing mother should drink it herself as pro-
lection for her own bones and teeth, which
will give up part of their calcium and phos-
phorus content to replenish any insuficiency
in her milk.
The milk is offered as preventive measure
only, not curative. Children who already have
ricketts,, and others with special needs, should
use it only as it fits into the physicians diet
program. If you have the slightest doubt
about the use of our Irradiated Milk
by yourself or anyone else in your family,
ask your doctor and be governed by his
recommendation.
Your Finest Mik Made Better
This company owes its large patronage to
a policy of furnishing the best milk modern
methods can produce. Irradiated Milk is
simply the best pastcurized milk made even
more beneficial. You now have one more
reason-and vital one, indeed--for making
milk the foundation of your family diet.
If you are not now patron of this dairy,
you will want to avail yourself of this milk,

The method of nradiating is simple: milk

United States Savings Bank, but in
view of the court battles which its
president, Col. Wade H. Cooper. is
waging with the Government, it is
not known what the Treasury will
do about an assessment on this bank s
stockholders. Col Cooper owns more
than half of the stock in the United

EMERGENCY RELIEF
GIVEN CHILDREN
Police Issue Tickets and
Store Fills Order for
Shoes and Clothing.

Direct emergency relief, as ad-
ministered by members of the Police
Department under new ruling, be-
came a reality this morning to a
small group of colored children who
were given shoes and clothing from
a nearby store on an order issued
by Officer Altus Moore of the elev-
enth precinct.
Ragged clothing and soleless shoes,
which were being worn by five small
children in the Birney School, at
tracted the sympathy and attention
of the Relief Committee of the Birney
School Parent-Teacher Association,
and Mrs. Helen c. Wills, chairman Of
the committee, escorted the ragged
tots to the precinct station and re-
quested that some aid be given to
them.
Children Bewildered.
Officer Moore. who is in charge of
relief and school patrols in his pre-
cinct issued the necessary clothing
orders" from his emergency relief
tickets, and the children. wide-eyed
and wondering, were QUILTED in the
nearby store.
Ranging in ages from 6 to 13 years,
one little boy said he did not re-
member ever having worn a new
pair of shoes before, but seemed to
vaguely remember that at one time
some one had told him he was re-
ceiving a new pair. Those he was
wearing when brought to the precinct
station house were far too large for
him and served only to protect his
feet from bruises, since the soles did
not exist.
Order Given by Allen.
Commissioner George E. Allen re-
Gently issued an order authorizing po-
licemen to issue relief tickets for food
or clothing when the heed was drastic.
The District Commissioners order
was the result of reports that relief to
families in destitute circumstances
often was SLOW"
A total of 48 cases was given emer-
gency relief through policemen issuing
emergency tickets during the past "a
hours. Yesterday was the second day
of police operating in connection with
relief programs. Approximately 20
cases were given relief the first day.

no relation to the recently introduced
practice Of using a serum made Of the
blood Of a child's parents to render
It immune to measles.
Results Favorable.
The results of the use of GONZALES
cent serum at Children's Hospital
have been quite favorable to date,
DR.. Starr said, although it can by no
means be considered as a specific
against the disease. The object is to
tighten the measles condition as much
as possible in order to concentrate on
the complications which are threat
ening the lives of 10 Of the little pa
tients.
The theory is that an attack Of
measles builds up a certain degree
of immunity in the child's blood which
may be communicated to others
through injection of the serum.
Measles itself, it is emphasized. sell
dom is a fatal disease but its special
danger is in the complications, espe-
cially pneumonia, to which it gives
rise. Where the pneumonia develops
when the measles attack is at its
height. however, 1t Is much more

This was revealed today as Distric
officials began study Of the bill in
troduced in the House by Representa-
tive Sisson Of New York providing fo
the 100000 payment to the corpora
tion as representative of a group c
subscribing taxpayers under the nc
obsolete assessment law.
Corporation Is Active.
A corporation has been solicitir
stock subscriptions from a number
concerns and persons who have pal
street improvement assessments pric
to enactment of the new paving la
on February 81, 1881, it was state
today.
The objective of the law Is TO pre-
vide refunds for taxpayers for as
sessments for work performed prior
February 81, 1928, and which, there
fore, were not provided for under tt
act Of Congress providing for reas
sessments for three years prior to er
actment of the 1881 law. These re
funds, however, would apply only t
subscribers of the Paving Tax Refur
Corporation under the present Pre-
posal.
The Commissioners have been aske
by Congress for an opinion on IT,
proposed bill, but this has not bee
prepared. 1t was explained today
however, that the former Board {.
Commissioners disapproved Of one
two other proposed measures to pa
refunds to certain individuals. takin
the position that all or none shoul
be given refunds.
Procedure Outlined.
The corporation requires its sui
scribers to pay an initial fee of So fo

In return, according to promotion
data issued by the corporation, stocl
is given the taxpayer. Two-thirds

District officials estimate roughl
that an appropriation of at least $3,
600, 900 if all the old Borland law as
sessments. not covered by the 1873!
law, were to be refunded. Definiti
estimates are not available.
The impression is given that Dis
trict officials will not approve the plar
to appropriate 100000 for the ben.

have paid the old system assessments
The point is made also that a thirt
of the appropriation would go fci

Washington children, Just recovered
from measles, were trooping to Chill
dren's Hospital this morning In re-
sponse to an appeal issued last night
for "convalescent serum" to treat
child victims there who are in danger
of death because their condition has
been complicated by mastoiditis or
pneumonia.
The use Of convalescent serum,
made from the blood Of recently re-
covered measles victims, is compar-
atively recent development, still
largely in the experimental stage, and
Children's Hospital is one Of the few
places in the country where the serum
is being employed.
20 Children Volunteer.
About 20 children volunteered this
morning, according to Dr. H j. Starr
Of the hospital staff, most of them
between 10 and Is years old. Most of
them, rather frightened over the COM
ing ordeal, we're led in by their par
ents but some older boys came of their
own accord. All were Immediately
sent to the hospital laboratory. There
have been enough volunteers to meet
