TODAY'S HEALTH QUESTION?

Q.-I have had acne on my face, beginning at about IA years of age. It has left my face considerably scared. There are people who say that they can remove these scars by French peeling. Would there be harmful af- ter effects? Would the re- suits be permanent? I cannot successfully use rouge on account of its settling in these pits.
 A.-There is no treatment that will remove or improve the appearance of the scars left by bad acne, and 1t is unwise and a waste of money to attempt any such process. As time goes on, the little scars show less and less, but the skin never be- comes entirely smooth. The trouble experienced in the use of cosmetics is an an- noyance, but it cannot be helped.

Woman SPaytyL Leader Looks F0rzeard IC Adoption Of Constitutional Amendment
 FOvthe Elimination Of DiScrin1i1latiOns

Few in this country realize that in Michigan, even though the wife has paid for the property held jointly by husband and wife, the husband has the sole right to rents and profits.
 Tn South Carolina and Michi- gan, even @ wornan's clothes are held to be the property of the his- band. w
 Husband Favored in Many States
 "In Georgia, a husband has a legal right to his wife's earnings; in New York State, the husband can snatch all earnings of @ wife secured from labor under the hus- bands roof.
 Tn New Mexico and Nevada, all property acquired after marriage by the industry of husband or wife is their point property. On his death, the husband may leave half to whom he pleases; but on her death the wife can't leave her half to anybody but her husband.
 Tn Arkansas and West Virginia, if son or daughter dies without heirs or without making a will, father gets 1t all, mother nothing.
 Tn Alabama, Rhode Island and other states, the father is the sole guardian of minor children. In Georgia, it's legally possible for the father to will away the custody of the children from the mother. In Michigan, New York and Massa- chusettS, the father alone is enti- tied to the earnings of the chil- dren."
 Night Work Ban Irks
 A great bone of contention is the existence in sixteen states of reg ulations prohibiting women from night work. Ten states have an eight-hour law applying to women, but not to men. The Woman's Par ty claims that to restrict by legis- lation the hours of labor of women, but not of men, perpetuates the idea that women are class apart; and deepens the impression that women are essentially inferior eco- nomically. They insist that it's im- possible for women to expect equal pay for equal work under such con- ditions; and that labor legislation should be based on the nature of the work, and not on sex.
 An added lash to feminist fury is that in many states, married wo- men have no legal right of contract in business and property dealings, being irresponsible along with chil- dren, criminals and the insane.
 DO you wonder that we are still plugging away for equal rights" queries the soft-voiced Miss Paul.

THE CHANGING VIEW OF HARDENING OF ARTERIES.

Earlier this week I quoted Dr. Osler's view of arteriosclerosis Gas given in the doctors bible, Osler's Practice of Medicine, published in 19O6) and Dr. Elsner's view (as give en in the classical Vol. VI of Mon- ographic Medicine, Prognosis, pulp lished in 1916. The Oslerian picture of hardening of the arteries, repre- sentative of the best medical know ledge of the time, was more or less traditional though painted in the interesting style for which Sir Wil- liam was famous. The Elsnerian conception of the nature of arteri- osclerosis represented advance of medical knowledge in the decade. Osler regarded heredity as a most important cause, and assumed that persons who develop hardening of the arteries early in life inherited poor material in the arterial tissue,

 New York-At the first Equal Rights convention held at Seneca Falls, N. Y., in 1048, an equal rights program of % points was drafted by Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Since then American wo- men have completely gained only one of the measures included in that declaration of principles.
 That is the astonishing declara- ton of Alice Paul, president and founder of the National Woman's Party, who is always being asked what women mean by continuing their battle for equal rights when they have the vote.
 Today in this country, there are 1000 distinctions against women based on state laws in the United States, says Miss Paul. But the chief fly in the ointment is the United States Constitution, which was written by men and for men, with no legal provision for women to have life, liberty and the pur- suit of happiness. However, an Equal Rights Amendment was in- troduced in the Senate by Senator Townsend on January 1, 1885; into the House by Representative Ludlow on January 3, 1885; is now before the Judiciary Committees in both the Senate and the House, and Y1rnha hlv ufIl ha taken in during the coming session of Congress.
 
 Would old State Inequalities
 "If this is passed and becomes a part of the Constitution, 1t at least will form basis for revision of state laws discriminating against women," Miss Paul asserts.
 'The amendment is aimed at establishing: equal opportunities

The Truth About Diet

 Vitamin C As Scurvy Preventive
By DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association, and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine.

 Each vitamin picks out a special portion of the body for the good it can do.
 Vitamin A was concerned with the tissue of the eye, and that part of vitafnin B which have already described was concerned with the nervous system and the muscles of the intestines.
 Now vitamin c picks out the capillaries, or smallest blood vessels
 Shortage of vitamin c is reflect ed quite promptly in bleeding from the membranes of the body. It's de- 7icicncy results also in damage to the teeth and in changes in the bones.
 Our knowledge of deficiencies of this vitamin is among the oldest Information we have on deficiency diseases. In the 18th century, Brit 1sh sailors found that something 1n the diet was necessary to pre- vent scurvy.
 Back in 1769, Dr. James Lind noticed that sailors become tired and pale, that large black and blue spots appeared on their bodies, that fheir gums would bleed, and their joints become painful when they sailed on long voyages and failed e get fresh food for long time.
 It was not until 1912. however. that proof was definitely forth- coming that vitarnin c in fresh <ruits and fresh vegetables was the substance necessary to prevent ap- mearance of scurvy.
 Now vitamin 0 has been isolated fn ptro form and is available in tablets and in concentrates. In it's plfre form, it is an aciG substance which hes been given the name aHeoThIc ncid. 1t has also been called MexuFpnlc acid. and there are other Nanes for it. such aa cebione and &eRiiafhic eei1.

FALL BACK ON CANNED VEGE-
 TABLES FOR WINTER vITAMINS
By Mrs. Mary E. Dagus
NEA Service stan Writer


 There was some excuse in grand. mas day for serving unbalanced meals, but with all kinds of canned goods on the grocer's shelves, 1t Is no problem to plan winter menus with essential vegetables. Here are receipes that make use of canned vegetables:
 Lima Bean Croquettes.
 Two cups cooked lima beans, 1 tablespoon minced onion, 2 table. spoons melted butter or bacon fat, i-2 cup canned tomato, IA tea spoon Worcestershire sauce, Hour, egg, dried bread crumbs, salt and pepper.
 Canned or cooked dried limas can be used. Put beans through food chopper. Melt fat or butter and brown the onion. Add beans, tomato and seasonings. Cook over a low fire, stirring to prevent stickings, until thick. It will take about ten minutes. Spread on a platter to cool and become firm. Form into croquettes, roll in flour, dip in egg slightly beaten with one tablespoon water. Roll in crumbs and fry in deep hot fat. The fat should be hot enough to brown an inch cube of bread in forty seconds, or 385 degrees P. on a fat therino- meter.
 JeIlied sauerkraut Vegetable Salad.
 This is an unusual salad that is inviting on a cold January night when pork in some fashion Is serv- ed.

Elsner regarded arterioclerosis as a progressive NUTRITIONAL disturbance of the arterial wall, pointed out that it begins in the intima or delicate lining of the artery, and spoke of MALNUTRI- TON and starvation of the arterial tissues.
 Today, I infer from data come across here and there in current medical literature and medical so- ciety chatter (though it is not yet included in standard medical booksl the metabolic or nutritional nature of arteriosclerosis is gaining recog- milton. Authorities on nutrition be-. lieve that a moderate shortage of vitamins, particularly c, favors pre-. mature old age. Recently one of the first scientists to isolate vitamin 0, advanced the view that shortage of this vitamin is a cause of arteri- osclerosis, A period of Apprehension (high blood pressure) precedes de- velopment of manifest signs of hardening of the arteries in most cases; this is often accompanied with lowering of sugar tolerance (that is, incapacity to utilize or as- simulate carbohydrate food normally without excreting sugar in urineJ and with overweight, all of which tend to improve or disappear when the patient receives an optimal vitaYnin ration-inore vitarnins than may be necessary to maintain a normal person at the highest level of nutrition and health.
 Haven't said q word yet apout minerals. And that's enough. If the vitarnin ration a. is right, the mineral metabolism Is bound to be right. The vitamins control and regulate the assimilation and utili- zation of minerals in the body. So don't bother or worry about mineral food. If your diet includes Q suff1- cient amount of the corrective pro- tective foods it Is bound to furnish all the minerals the body needs.

It is an important part of this regeneration regimen I keep harping about, and you old geezers, particularly you who begins to be old at thirty, for- ty or fifty, had better hear what have to say about this. I'm no Ponce de Leon but then, remember, I've been dabbing in this study of longevity, health and nutrition for years and in way I'm an expert on the subpect--rlo cracks about, my hair, if you please, unless you are prepared to compare teeth, ar-. teries and resiliency with me.

Makes Last Appear

"ABIEN SEVITZKY, won an ova-
- tion last evening at his last
appearance this season as
Il conductor of the orchestra at
Water Gate concerts. Philip Frank,
young violinist, was given as en-
thusiatic acclaim as the soloist. The
program was inspiring in itself and
was given throughout with sincerity
and musicianly finish. Mr.. Sevitzky
has made many friends in his short
stay here and his conducting last
evening proved his worth. Opening
with. Beethoven's overtures to
"Egmont," the orchestra followed
with the same composers Eighth
Symphony in F Major" the reading
of both works showing appreciation
for traditions in interpreting the
classics. The symphony was played
with delicacy, the melodies were vivid,
and the orchestration well balanced
in the background. And the whole
was delightful and gay.
Mr.. Frank played TSchaikoWky's
Concerto in D Major" in which he
showed himself a violinist of real
ability. He played with rich warm
tone, this concerto in its beauty and
bpeadth of theme giving unusual op-
poftuIfty to show such quality. The

composition Mr.. Frank mastered with

off the astounding cadenza in the first
movement with the brilliance and
abandon of a more mature artist.
Trills, arpeggios, double stops and in

and at no time was Mr.. Frank careless
of his tone. Alone with his brilliant
technic the young violiniSt has ample
feeling for the Interpretation of such
beauty as snis concerto contains. To
Mr.. Sevitzky is due much credit for
the excellent accompaniment, his
ability TO reduce the volume OF the

spontaneous applause.

closely and obeys his every move and
expression. and when he entered for
the last number on the program the
men rose and applauded him. tribute
which apparently touched as well as
surprised him.

anthem of the United States. Mr.
