THIS is the last of the series Of
L articles on diet which I have
written for about the last four
months. The knowledge obtained
from these articles should enable
you to avoid deficiencies in your
diet and obtain from your food the
maximum benefits for health and
for growth.
There is a great difference be-
tween just living satisfactorily, and
having the exuberant, buoyant feel
ing that comes with perfect con-
dition of tissues and excellent nu-
triton.
Perhaps the most significant of
all information offered in this series
of articles is that concerning the
protective foods, such as milk,
fruits, vegetables, eggs, cod liver oil,
liver, lambs kidneys, and similar
substances, which are essential in
providing the diet with necessary
vitarnins and mineral salts. These
are likely to be taken in insufficient
amounts. if one subsists largely on
the meat, potatoes, vegetables and
bread of a previous generation.
Dietary authorities recommend
that at least half of the total in
take of food consist of the protec-
tive foods. They suggest that at
least as much money be spent for
milk, cream, and cheese as for
meats, fish and poultry, and at least
half as much be spent for fruits
and vegetables as for meats of all
kinds.
TINE essentials of a well-balanced
4 diet are those which provide, in
the words of an authority, Two or
more liberal servings of fruits each
day; two or more servings of veg
etableS daily, of which one should
be a green or yellow vegetable, if
desired, such equivalents as canned
milk, milk powder, cheese, and
cream, and an average of four or
five eggs week, more or less, de-
pending on how well eggs agree,
and their price"
This, however, is a rigid list and

TODAY'S SCIENCE
by DAVID DIETZ

THIRTY great mineral districts,
4 scattered over the face of the
earth, produce three-fourths of the
worlds mineral supplies. These are
the districts where nature has con-
centrated her mineral wealth with
a lavish hand. These are the we'll
springs of modern civilization, the
fountainheads Of national greatness.
They are also the storm centers
about which the destructive winds
of the next world war will blow.
Nations bordering the North At
lantic, particularly the United
States and the nations of western
Europe, possess the most impor-
tant of these mineral districts.
That is the chief reason, in the
opinion of Prof. C. K. Leith, chair
man of the Mineral Inquiry of the
American Institute of Mining and
Metallurgical Engineers, why those
nations dominate the world today.
Today, every nation is striving for
mineral self -suff1ciency. But NO ma
ton has adequate amounts oil all
minerals. From this fact arise
many international complications
and a new Importance for the free
dom of the seas.
Prof. Leith says that third of
the worlds mineral tonnage-con-
sisting chiefly of coal, oil and iron
moves across international boun-
diaries. In war time, control of the
seas viii be essential TO victory.
Three-fourths of the worlds sup
ply of iron ore, the chief raw ma
terial of the Age of Steel. comes
from a handful of sources in five
countries of the world.
They are the Lake Superior re-
gion and the state Of Alabama in
the United States; northeastern
France and Luxembourg, the Cleve-
land, Lincolnshire, Northampton
shire and Cumberland districts Of
England, the Kiruna district of
Sweden, and the Bilbao district of
northern Spain.
The situation with regard to coal
Is much the same.

A JUDGE is REMOVED

TIME conviction and removal of Federal District
l. Judge Halstead j. Ritter of Florida by the re-
CURED bare two-thirds Senate vote was big news,
but not because the count upon which the convlc-
ton was based was sensational AS a matter OF
fact the Senate failed to convict on six specific
counts and convicted only on the general charge
of unfitness under the seventh
The news of the conviction was big because of
its rarity In all our century and half of his
tory as a nation Judge Ritter only the fourth.
Federal Judge to be convicted. Only nine altogether
have been mpeached and brought to trial
WHY? one would like to believe it because all
of these thousands of Federal judges through all
the years have been so circumspect as to be above
suspicion of msbehavior. We know this is not the
case, for Federal judges are no less human than
the rest of U.S. and the moral and professional batting
average lust naturally is not that high. The charges
that enmeshed Judge Ritter related to pretty
widespread and scandalous evil-the misuse of Fed
eral judgeshp powers in passing out receiverships
to friends.
The reason Federal judges are not removed often
err we think, is that the removal process is cunber-
some. unfair and inadequate First, charges must
be brought in the House; then the House Judiciary
Committee must sift Them naming subcommittee
sufficient funds conduct an amateurish investga-
ton; then the House votes impeachment then the
Senate sits as court, with board of House man
ayers" acting prosecutors. The House and Sen
ate legislative and political bodies, suddenly must
turn themselves into judicial bodies. Often they
must take out weeks of their valuable time The 10
day trial of Judge Ritter was fairly well attended
but in the trial of Judge Louderback last session the
Jury" often consisted of a mere handful of Sen
ators The process is unfair to the taxpayers, the
Congress and the accused judge.
Trials of Federal district and circuit judges could
be made more simple, just and dignifed. Congress
could make House Investigations more expert and
Senate trials less clumsy. The Senate could author
ize its Judiciary Committee or board of its mem
hers to act as referees Tor taking testimony and
making recommendations. And it should clarity re-
movable offenseS so that judge could be removed
for simple misconduct without having to be charged
with high crimes and misdemeanors

anyone with imagination may vary
it to make a greater appeal to the
appetite.
The information in this series
isn't scientists final word on nu-
triton and diet. Those who have
been following the tremendous adj
vances of the last Is years know
that we are only on the threshold
of what we ultimately will be able
to learn on this subject.
In addition to the research of sci
entists in laboratories of the great
universities and schools of nutrition,
manufacturers of food products
have begun to realize that foods
constitute the most important item
in the American budget. All the
great good industries have estab-
lished laboratories in which research
goes on constantly to determine how
foods may be improved from the
point of view of value in the diet
and appeal to the appetite.
IN the application of the newer
a dietary knowledge to the con-
troll of disease, physicians also are
beginning to learn much that is new
and significant. Newly discovered
facts have changed our viewpoint
regarding the relationship of certain
dietary deficiencies to various
diseases of some organs, to the
breaking down of bones and of
teeth, to the occurrence of such
conditions as pellagra, neuritis,
scurvy and similar deficiency
diseases.
Some specialists, even, are pre-
pared to say that We may eventually
be able to improve the human mind
by modifying the diet.
AS a result of our new knowledge,
children are growing bigger and
taller, and they weigh more than
did their ancestors. And we know
that it is possible for them to live
little longer.
That is certainly more than
enough to warrant widespread dis
semination of the Truth About
Diet"

ONE-HOUSE assemblies
FIND FAVOR

By I. L.
Slowly the idea of unicameral
Legislatures takes hold of the coun-
try. Nebraska, after long battle,
adopted the plan and New York
state solons will be asked shortly to
indorse a resolution providing for a
study of the one-house system.
Proponents that, among. other
advantages, the unicameral body
eliminates the necessity of a legisla-
tor lobbying" his bills through a
second house. Moreover, it is said,
the one-hollse body would command
a prestige not now possible because
buck-passing" has become an all
too familiar practice of the present
two-house setup.
1t is significant that our delibera-
tive. bodies, recognizing their own
imperfections, are setting about to
improve the modern Legislature.
And if the new proposal does little
more than call attention to the
weaknesses of these bodies, it has
been worth while

Impressment of Seamen
Right of British Crown

According to the Britannica, from
medieval times the British crown
claimed the power to impress able
bodied subjects for the defense of the
realm. From the earliest times Eng
land depended on her professional sea-
men, the merchantmen, to man her
fighting ships; but not until the end Of
the Sixteenth century were fishermen,
watermen and mariners exempted by.
law from being pressed as soldiers;
they remained liable to impressment
for navy service. In Elizabeths reign
a vagrancy act was passed; rendering
all disreputable persons liable for Inn
pressment in the navy. Even at the
height Of Brltain's maritime power,
from 1889 to 1915, the press gang was
the chief means of recruiting the
fleet. One Of the causes Of the War
of 1872 was Brltain's insistence on the
right to press British subjects in
America. The Britannica article
states that the press gangs were not
used after the close Of the Napoleonic
wars In 1915, though 1t is lawful to
this day to impress men for service in
the navy, though not in the army.
With the introduction Of the long
service system in 1853 all need for Inn
pressment disappeared.

Seventeen-Y Year Locust
Damages Bark of Trees

Contrary to general belief the IT.
year locust does little damage to grow
Ing crops, asserts a writer in the De-
troit News. It is not voracious eater.
The real damage occurs when the
females deposit their eggs under the
tender bark of young trees in half
inch Sits made by them. This ex-
poses the wounds to all sorts of tree
diseases and invasion by other tree
parasites. The eggs hatch in from
six to eight weeks and the young fall
to the ground where they burrow In
and start their 17-year-cycle of life
In the soil, feeding on roots and other
underground vegetation.
The 17-year-locust attains a length
OF one and one-half inches, with a
wing expanse Of about three inches.
The body is black with golden bands
The head, legs and veins in the trans
parent body are golden-brown and the
eyes red.
1t is essentially forest insect and
for this reason it has been decreasing
In numbers, due to deforestation over
wide areas. It must have trees in
which to incubate its eggs, and as
forest growth disappeared it was quite
natural that 1t should seek out or
chards and shade trees for this pur-
pose.

appeared briefly before the group this
morning. After 10 minutes in the

He had been requested to appear, it
was understood, to release certain

has employed investigators to collect
data presented to the jury yesterday,
read:
THE evidence thus far obtained in

mulcted; that they have paid certain
moneys for alleged fines, and after the
fine was paid the county records have
been altered, reducing the charge and
at the same time reducing the fine.
and that no refund was made to the
