ROOSEVELT ASKED
ECONOMIC FACTS
Liberty League Publishes
Letter by Dr.. Dyer on
"RoyaIiSt" Charge.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The American Liberty League last
night made public an open letter to
President Roosevelt from DR.. Gus w.
Dyer, professor of economics at VAN
derbilt University, asking "the specific
facts on which you base your most
serious charges against American
business"
Written from Ridgetop, Tenn. the
letter quoted the Presidents reference
to economic royalists" in his speech
accepting denomination, and said:
You say in your address, there was
no place among this royalty for our
many thousands of merchants who
sought to make worthy use of the
American system of initiative and
profit
I'm 1929, 1,543,158 retail stores
were in operation in this country.
These stores were classified as fol-
lows:
Total number of chain stores
(royalists), 144,598.
Total number independent stores,
1924, ,883."
After citing other statistics, DR..
Dyer concluded:
The figures here given, Mr.. Presi-
dent. indicate that the conditions you
described in your Philadelphia ad-
dress do not exist and never have
existed, and couldn't exist under the
Constitution of this country. The
conditions you portrayed exist only in
the minds of Socialists. Communists
and other radicals who are grossly
ignorant of the facts of our industrial
life"

OFF ANNUAL
GRIDGAME

For the first time since the
World war, washington will miss
the colored football game between
Howard University and Lincoln
University, Of Pennsylvania, on
Thanksgiving Day.
The traditional "big game"
which started more than 40 years
ago, was cancelled last night by
the Howard board Of athletic con-
troll, fearful that there might be
another strike by the team, such
as caused cancellation Of the
game with Virginia Union last
week.
The squad struck for food and
better equipment, declaring they
would not play unless the train
ing table was reestablished with q
dietitian to see the players got
the proper amount Of food.
The board agreed to do this,
but insisted that the students
must pay a larger fee in order to
meet the food bills.
But the students, who went on
o sympathetic strike last Mon
day, refusing to attend classes
all day, have refused to come
across with the increased activi-
ties fee.

DIET FALLAC|ES
EXPOSED

NEW YORK.-FiSh is no brain
food: milk is not fattening, and it
won't kill you to eat lobster and
ice cream together, says a Un1ver'
sity Of Vermont bulletin.
These facts are being brought
to the attention of women stu
dents in opposition to current fal-
lacies and fads about food. Health
week is responsible for all this
debunking Of popular food super
Stitions.
Among some of the other truths
revealed for better health knowl-
edge are: Physicians do not advise
stuffing q cold and starving a
fever; celery, which is considered
a nerve food, doctors label as an
abSurdity; family physicians pre-
scribe yeast only for those suffer
ing from digestive deficiency, and
it should not be eaten by everyone.
Finally, in the fusillade of facts,
it is stated that lemons and or.
aI1ges do not make the blood acid,
that lettuce and cucumbers are
not cooling foods, and that no one
should omit either breakfast or
lunch.

AtC.C.C. Camps
! WMBe Improved

Modern dental treatment will re-
place the "emergency extraction" and
''relief of pain" methods heretofore
applied to the 350,000 enrolles OF
c. c. c. camps. Director Robert Fech-
ner said yesterday in approving ma
terial expansion of existing dental
services.
Under the new program. which was
ordered into effect at once by the
War Department, 1853 dental teams
each consisting of a dental officer
and two enrolles will visit the camps
periodically. 1t is expected that the
teams will spend two days at each
camp every six months examining the
men for defects, filling cavities and
administering remedial work.
In order to put the program into
operation. the commanding officers of
the nine Army Corps areas have been
authorized to appoint to active duty
a total of l68 additional Dental Re-
serve officers. The distribution of the
teams authorized to visit the camps
are First Corps, 10: Second, IL; Third,
