A S people we have been fairly cursed with fad

And there are dietary faddiStS who believe that
eating OF more white bread, more wheat, fruit
or more raisins is necessary to healthful life.

and potatoes useful sources of food for the

much more carbohydrates than is necessary for
them. If they eat more they are likely to become
fat.
But we need not tell such persons that eating
white bread will poison them or give them cancer.
XXTE all know that whole wheat bread contains
w ingredients which are not found in white
bread. The germ of the wheat supplies minerals
and vitaminS which are eliminated from white flour
Yet few if any, Americans live on white bread
alone and there is evidence that the substances
which can DE derived from the germ of the wheat

If you like white bread. therefore there is no
reason why you should not eat it.
If the savageS Go not perish of cancer the reason
is that they do not live long enough to die of this

RERLlN, Dec. AT the
gate of the Labor
Camp near Nauen, west of
Berlin, the 18-year-old sem
tinel gave me a snappy
spade salute" The spade
was polished and sharp, and

that he might cut off an
ear. But he didn't. He'd
practiced up on it before.

toward the square, with
the low, gray barracks

sides. By the office two
more camp guards gave me

Years ago, I used to be able to

an old Springfield, but even in my
palmiest days I doubt If could
have done it with a lowly spade.
But in Hitler's Germany even a
spade takes on soldierly quality.
And no high private of the old
Prussian Guards could have been
more earnest and solemn than
those boys playing soldier with
their bright spades.

where the $50 boys of this Camp

putting in new tile, this actuality
of unbending discipline was EVIL

1t was almost quitting time
when I reached the field, and I
watched the boys line Up and
march off singing an old Austrian
army song to words of their own
making.
At a farm building quarter
mile away they mounted their
bicycles and pedaled back to camp
and their o'clock dinner.
No trucks rolled them up and

HeUing to One Line

THERE is no personal equation whatsoever in the

will be fought wholly upon the issues. If my sur
misses are correct John L. Lewis is not likely to be
stampeded into rash of activity. His will be Gu
mulatve campaign and, in the beginning at any
rate he will be hesitant to include issues which seem
to him outside his immediate objective
This inquring reporter undertook to draw him
out on the question of his feeling about an indie
pendent labor party and your correspondent learned
precisely nothing Mr.. Lewis didn't say Yes" and
he didn't say mo" His attitude was much more
nearly us there any point in discussing that now?"
Whether this is the part of wisdom or not I
don't know think it is not wise, but Lewis is an
old hand and obviously intends to stick to his
knitting.
Possibly 1t Is less than accurate to paint his
tactics as entirely conservative. He will persuade
and persuade up to certain point and then sud-
denly lash out In addition to the gift of oratory he
holds good right hook in reserve 1 don't think
he's going to swing right now. I don't know when
he's going to swing, but if his adversary in
the ring, would be little worried.

Personally, he is humble, genial,
unmarried and uninterested in
social functions. Study and books
are his loves. He has written
several notable published studies
on the law.
His health and strength are not
of the best, and he spent part of
last summer recovering from an
illness. His voice does not carry
well in the high-vaulted new Su-
preme Court room.
Lawyers admire the language of
his opinions for its delicate touch
and apt phrasing, but laymen
find that he tends toward obscure
and inverted sentences when
philosophical concepts are under
discussion.
