Disabled Veterans
Assured President
Most sympathetic

NEW HAVEN. Conn, July Is UP
After a series of an-night con-
ferenceS in Sweltering hotel rooms,
disabled American veterans went
into the first business session OF
their national convention today,
heartened by word from Washing
ton that President Roosevelt sis
most sympathetic" in his regard OF
the plight Of the eX-servicemen.
The encouraging note was sound
ed by Gen. Frank T. Hines, ad-
minisuator of veterans affairs, who
last night told the convention that
he was confident the S20,000,000
disqualification program, already ap-
proved by the house, would be
passed by the senate.
"I should say to you right here
that in taking up this immense
program with the President, I have
found that he is most sympathetic,
and I feel you should know from
me that no matter what may come
to you, he has the keenest interest
in the actual disabled man.
Gen. Hines said he always had
found the President reasonable
and with a desire to do the right
thing by the veterans in any prob
lens not solved and the many near
ing completion at this time"

Britain, France and Japan to re-

sions in the Pacific.
New Naval Pact Difficult
Without some similar under
standing at this time at London, in
Guiding agreement not to fortify
further the Pacific islands, new
naval pact would be difficult even
were other obstacles out of the wav.
Unfortunately, Japan's seizure of
Manchuria and her present activi-
ties II China would seem to pre-
ciude further reliance in pacts of
the nine-power variety. Having
violated that treaty two or three
times in the recent past, few be-
ieve her militarists will respect it.
Great Britain is now rushing to
completion her $50000,000 naval
and air base at Singapore. Aus
tralia is studying important base
projects along her northern coast.
Holland is worried over the future
Of her East Indian possessions.
The United States plans to make
the Hawaiian Islands an American
Gibraltar. Unless some contrary
bargain is struck at London, the
Aleutian Islands will likely be fort
flied at strategic points and i'm
portant air and naval bases con-
structed. The Philippine defenses
are being studied. A national de-
Tense system is being worked out
under American supervision. A
naval and air base at Guam is I'M
der consideration.
Such are some of the nuts Lon
don will have to crack if it is to
get anywhere.

5 MEALS DAILY
ARE ADVOCATED
BY SCIENTISTS
Customary 8 Not Enough to
AIIay Fatigue, Yale
Professors Say.
By Science Serrice

By Science Serrice
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. g.
Five meals day instead of the Gus
tomary three are now advocated by
two Yale University scientists, Drs.
Howard w. Haggrad and Leon A.
Greenberg. The how and why of
their flve-meal day plan appear in a
book, Diet and Physical Efficiency,
published by the Yale University
Press
Studies on human guinea pigs"
in the Yale laboratories and on
workers in a nearby Connecticut
shoe factory have convinced the
scientists that this dietary regime
reduces so-called industrial fatigue
and increases the amount of work
that can be done.
Most people these days are glad if
they can achieve the usual three
squares" a day. The five-meal plan,
however, does not put any extra
burden on the pocket-book. No
more food is to be eaten through
the day, but the usual amount is to
be divided into five means. Each of
these should be smaller than the
ones customarily eaten on the three
meal plan.
Replanning of Meals Necessary
The new scheme requires replan-
ming of the days meals. The prob
lem is one in division, not in addi-
ton. In the Yale study, the extra
meals were fitted in at the end of
the third hour of work in the morn
ing and at the same time in the
afternoon.
They should not consist of candy,
a sweet drink or similar between
meal snacks. A glass of milk and
a salad vegetable are favored by
Drs. Haggard and Greenberg. In
their study of the factory workers,
the extra meals consisted of a glass
of milk and a piece of angel food
cake-this last item a concession
to the workers tastes, but not en-
tirely in accordance with the Scien-
fists ideals.
The industrial output of factory
operatives can be increased by as
much as 10 per cent when their
daily diet is rearranged into five
meals instead of three, the Yale
scientists found. The usual drop
in industrial output at the end of
the morning and the afternoon work
periods has generally been attrib-
uted to fatigue.
Also Urged for Office Workers
Those who work in offices and
stores instead of factories are prob
ably also less efficient at these times
of day, though it is harder to meas
ure their productivity. At any rate,
they as we'll as factory workers may
feel tired, irritated and disinclined
to work during the last hours of
the morning and afternoon. Drs.
Haggard and Greenberg maintain
that they are not tired, but hungry,
and that food, not rest, is what they
need.
The three-meal day came about
as a matter OF practical convent
ence, it is pointed out. Our very
adaptable bodies have become SO
used to the arrangement that now
we do not feel hungry even when
our stomachs are empty.

Q-What would you say is re-
sponsible for the prevalent idea OF
Catholic hostility to the Bible?
A Catholic authority an
swers:
81 think the myth of Catholic
hostility to the Bible is based on
a radical misconception of his
torical facts. The custom of read
ing passages from the Epistles
and Gospels at Mass dates back
to very early times. The sacred
text itself was precious and diff
cult to obtain.
THAT people were anxious to
acquire it is shown by the fact
that in Medieval Europe illumi-
mated manuscript Bibles had to
be chained down, and some naive
ly ignorant persons of the past
have attributed this to a desire
to keep the Bible locked up.
Q-Do Jews observe the day the
Ten Commandments were given?
A-The Jews observe the festi-
val of Shabuoth, the Feast of
weeks, which is the traditional
though not the historical dates
of of the Ten Commandments
According to Jewish tradition the
festival of Shabuoth is the ami
versary of the Revelation. This
is not stated in the Scriptures
where Shabuoth is described solely
as an agricultural festival, but it
is mentioned in rabbinic literature
and the tradition has been &C
cepted by all Jewry.
Q-What is the significance OF
the church to the Protestant?
A-Prof. William Adams Brown
of Union Theological Seminary
answers:
ITO the Protestant the church
is not primarily an institution,
but a company of people. 1t is
composed of those who, having
received the revelation of God in
Jesus Christ as that revelation is
presented and preserved in the
Bible, have responded to that
revelation in penitence and faith
and, gratefully accepting the
forgiveness therein freely offered,
have consecrated themselves
whole heartedly to Gods service.
Q-Why do Catholic lawyers &C
cept divorce cases when Christ said
divorce was wrong?
"A Catholic lawyer answers:
my understanding is that the
act of Catholic lawyer in pro-
curing an absolute divorce for his
client is disapproved by his Church
only where he knows that it Is
part of a plan to bring about a
second marriage during the life
time of the other spouse.
MY layman's opinion is that
it is the remarriage during the
lifetime of the other spouse, and
not the divorce, that Christ for
babe and which the Church con-
dennis. AS to why do Catholic
lawyers do forbidden or wrongful
acts, we may also ask why did
Judas betray our Lord? Why did
st. Peter deny Him? or why does

Unless at least three fore
most sea powers-the United
States, Great Britain and
Nippon-patch up some kind
of agreement to replace the
Washington treaty scrapped
by Japan, a grim game of chess
with ornaments and Notifications
for pawns will almost certainly be-
gin in that area.
When japan denounced the naval
limitation treaty, thus winning a
free hand to build up to parity with
Britain and America, the United
States simultaneously was re-
leased from its pledge not to fortify
the Philippines, Guam, the Aleu-
tan and other islands of the
Pacific.
Equal Rights After 1886
Japan and Britain, of course, will
have equal rights in their own in
sular possessions after 1886. Whether
they will all avail themselves of
such rights depends on factors
which. at this time, are extremely
uncertain.
Japan, for example, has definitely
announced her intention of holding
on to the swarm of inundated
islands formerly belonging to Ger
many. Her naval experts are known
to regard these islands as perma-
nent "Warships." There are hun
dreds of them, anchored" two
thirds of the Wy from Hawaii to
the Philippines.
If the japanese use them as
bases-particl arly for submarine
and aircraft--approach to China
from the east would be hazardous
even for the most powerful of
fleets.
Japan'S other islands to the south,
and northWard toward Kamchatka,
if similarly used, would make her
impregnable from those directions
Both China and Eastern Siberia
would find themselves bottled up,
their exits to the Pacific barred.
These and like considerations
played a vital role at the Washing
ton naval and Far Eastern confer
ence OF 1921. That conference, as
the name implied, was really two
in one. 1t was generally recognized
that unless the major powers could
reach political understanding, no
arms limitation agreement was pos
Sible.
Two highly important political
treaties, therefore, resulted. One
was the nine-power treaty, safe
guarding China's political and ter
ritorial integrity. The other was a
four-power pact among America,
