AMERICAS BAD
TEETH LAID TO
DIET BY EXPERT
Admits He Doesn't Know
What Should Constitute
Balanced Meals.

Americas teeth are horrible, and
their condition is perfect register
of the diet O. the American people.
This was the message which DR..
B. w. Fairbanks, University Of ILL
nois department of animal huS-
bandry. brought to so members Of
the Indiana Dietetic Association yes
terday, in the first meeting this year
in the Lilly Auditorium, City Hos
pital.
ANY deviation from perfectly
balanced diet-and confess 1 don t
know what one is-Will be evident
in the teeth" DR.. Fairbanks said,
his own teeth flashing in an engag-
| ing smile. The dentine of the teeth
is as sensitive as a seismograph."
He gave statistics, obtained when
he assisted a dentist in an eXamina-
ton of high school pupils in Omaha,
which showed that it was necessary
to examine 200 mouths before find
ing one with a perfect set of teeth.
He quoted figures which showed
that "a per cent of immigrant chill
| dren who come to America have per-
! feet teeth.
And then, after assuring his audi
ence that diet is the controlling fac
tor in the production of good teeth,
he confessed that he did no know
what part of the diet was most i'm
portant and that he didn't know
wherein the American diet is def
Cient.
DR.. Fairbanks exploded a few
dietetic theories in his reports of his
recent Investigations at the Univer-
sity of Illinois. One of these was
the accepted practice Of prescribing
at least one quart Of milk Gay to
a growing child.
DR.. Fairbanks explained that nu-
triton experts do not know what the
calcium requirement, largely pro-
vided by milk, is. Uncertain Of this,
he explained, they cling to the pre-
scribing of one quart of milk day
for each growing child, knowing that
it is a safe one.

BREAD TO COST
ONE CENT MORE
HERE, is CLAIM
Bakers Predict Rise Due
to Inferior Wheat and
Crop Shortage.

A domestic flour shortage, caused
by light harvest Of inferior wheat.
soon Will force bread prices up l
cent a loaf, local bakers predicted
today.
Since the flour price always &C
counts for 65 per cent of the ma
terial cost Of bread, and since this
price is 81 higher this year than
last, it is evident, they said, that
bread must 60 up.
The retail price OF bread is fixed
by common consent. Competition
in the industry is so keen that when
one baker finds himself forced to
raise prices his rivals are usually so
pinched that they are glad to follow
his lead, they asserted.
Millers report that the new crop
is light in test weight This means
that six bushels of wheat must be
ground to make a barrel Of flour,
where IN normal years it takes only
four and half bushels.
Jc0bers and millers are protesting
the strain of the 30 cent Federal
processing tax. They point out that
this tax is paid on the bushel Of
wheat regardless of the amount Of
flour 1t can produce.
Black rust and unfavora e
weather conditions in the great
wheat growing Centers account for
the poor crop. The shortage is so
great that for the first time in his
tory white spring wheat is being
transported from the Pacific Coast
TO the Middle West and the East.
The Canadian crop was normal,
and growers there may ship 5O,00O.-
600 bushels to this country before
the next harvest, experts say. Millers
are anxious to get this foreign
wheat, since it is full-bodied and
makes a good flour mixture.
The Indiana wheat crop is not far
below normal. I. E. Woodland. preSi-
dent of Evans Co., reported.
However. even in normal years most
Of the flour used in this state must
be shipped in.

Business No Longer Private
Matter If It's War Breeder

It is often hard to draw the line between private
business and public business. But when q private en-
terprise sends q tentacle hallway around the world
and gives the general public genuine reason TO fear
that their country may be involved in a war, It ought
TO be obvious that the whole affair has become a pub
lie concern.
For this reason it is a little bit hard to be patient
about all the stern and dignified denials with which
oil company officials surrounded that famous Ethi-
opian concession-up to the moment when IL was
Cancelled.
Let's get the record straight on this. First news OF
the concession came through an announcement by
Halle selasSie that rights to develop the eastern half
OF Ethiopia had been granted to Standard oil in
teress. The name Of the corporation to which the
concession was granted was the African Development
and Exploration Company.
This company had been formed by the Standard
Vacuum Oil Company. The Standard Vacuum. in

pany and the Standard Oil Company OF New Jersey.
two OF the largest units In the great Standard Oil
chain.
But could you find an official OF either OF these
companies who had 80 much as heard Of the deal7
You could not. President John A. Brown and Vice
President Harold r. Sheets OF Socony- Vacuum de-
clared that Socony-Vacuum had nothing 70 do with
the concession. Similar denials came from w. @.
Parish. chairman Of the board Of Standard OIL Of
New Jersey. and z. J. sadler. vice president.
These denials were broadcast between the time that
the concession was announced and the time that It
was-at Secretary OF state Hull's reouest-drcpped.
Those few days made up an uneasy period for
American citizens. Here was this Ethiopian mess.
away off on the other side OF the world. which had
begun as a colonial quarrel and now seemed likely
to engender a f~irst-rate European war; into II. Just
at the moment we were all thanking heaven that We
couldn't get mixed up In It. came the news OF this
concession. which had the effect Of putting us into
Il right up 70 our ears.
The American people wanted to know all about It,
They had an indisputable right to know. And the
high officials Of the two Standard Oil concerns which
owned the company which held the concession were
hiandly denying that they had ever heard OF It.
That pretense soon collapsed. OF course. But II is
something to remember. Just the same.

New Outbreak Is Laid
To Polluted Wells
By DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN
Editor Journal Of the American Medical Association
and Of Hygeta, the Health Magazine

An outbreak OF typhoid fever in the Minneapolis
area indicates again that only constant vigilance will
safeguard any large community from outbreaks of
this disease. About 100 cases were reported % the
health departments in Minneapolis and st. Paul BE-
tween May 2 and July Is.
Repeated studies were made of the available water
supplies and q few specimens were found slightly con-
taminated around July p.
Recently $4,000 was appropriated by the state ex-
ecutive council to conduct a complete survey OF the
city water system. In the meantime. "A contaminated
wells we're found in various parts Of Minneapolis and
were closed by the health department.
The city waterworks supervisor insists that blame
for the large number OF cases Of typhoid fever must
be placed on these wells and not on the city water
supply. The story sounds like . very old one In rela-
tlonship to prevention and control Of typhoid fever.
II the case rates and death rates for typhoid that
existed in 1890 prevailed today. the city OF Mime
apolis would have this year approximately 1000 cases
Of typhoid fever instead Of Ill. With 5000 cases Of
typhoid fever, there would have been around 900
deaths.
In normal times. OF course. the city OF Minneapolis
will have less than 20 cases o typhoid fever In any
single season.
For Nuisance in the years from 1~sOe-lslo. Mime
apolis had sal deaths for every 100000 people. In
~lol1-lsl5. this dropped to lo6: from ~lele-l92O, it
dropped to SO: from 1~e21-l925. It was IL: then from
1926 1880 It was 0s-that is. there was less than one
typhoid death for every 100000 people in the city Of
Minneapolis.
In 1891 there was O6, and in 1881. os. but in 1893
the rate reached OF. which means that there was only
one death in Minneapolis from typhoid fever during
that year. With the one death there were probably
not more than 10 cases.
In 1884 the rate was Ia which. Of course. was still
within the average for modern years.
ST. Raul had a rate OF 1873 in lo0e-lel0 o. for 1911
1915. 81 for 1sl6-1920: 81 for 1o2l-1s25. IA for 1896
1890. IL for 1881. OF for 1892. "a for 1898. and not q
single death from typhoid fever In 1894.
It is not surprising. therefore. that q sudden out
break such as has occurred this summer should arouse
some CONSERVATION.
