who were ready to fight for what they
wanted, found their desires conceded
in the legislation introduced yester-

On the other hand, the administra-

powers which did not satisfy those de-

ment Of diabetes is that the diabetic
cannot utilize as much Of the carbo-
hydrates (Which means the sweets
and star chcs) as a normal person
Therefore, the primary change in the
diet Of the diabetic patient is to bring
the amount Of carbohydrates which
he consumes day down to the level
Of the amount which he can utilize.
IT more are given him, they are sim
ply wasted because he does not burn
them. They do not satisfy his hum
ger, and they simply pass off in the
urine in the form of sugar
Now. if we reduce the amount of
carbohydrate in the diabetc diet, It
must be replaced by other substances
IN order that he can have enough
energy to live. The only two other
substances which we can utilize are
fats and proteins. With both Of these
there are some difficulties. The pro-
TENS are transformed in the body to
carbohydrates in certain amounts
Probably about half the protein is
utilized as carbohydrate.
Fats May Form Acids

Adc0nces in the Dietary
Treatment of Diabetes

/ insulin was introduced, the general
plan was to give a high fat diet.
This however. carried certain dam
gers with it, because if fats are i'm
troduced into the body in too large
quantity without corresponding car
bohydrate, they tend to form acids
and are likely to induce a semi-acid
state, eve terminating in coma.
For this reason, and others, lately
the tendenc. has been to furnish
what is called a high carbohydrate
Diet. This does not mean that the
diabetic patient should be taught to
eat carbohydrates unfortunately.

days, dietitians now give diabetic pa

Cleveland, May 22-(UP)-So- cialist leaders, gathering here for their biennial convention starting tomorrow, planned today to make political capital of recent U. 8. Su- preme court decisions restraining Congress. Those high in party councils said that the first plank in the l936 platform to be written Sunday will demand adoption of an amendment to the Constitution giving Congress broad powers to enact social legislation and regulate industry.
 Norman Thomas, two-time so- cialist presidential nominee, hailed the amendment as "the one thing that will save America from disas- ter"
 "The government now is power- less to act" he commented. Tho supreme court has tied Congress hand and foot. This amendment will provide the legal means to car- ry on the government"

 FOR REPRISALS

Rome, May 22.-(UP) .-PremieI Henito Mussolini is preparing for Q long range campaign of commercial reprisals against nations which joined in league penalties against Italy, it was indicated today.
 Statements in newspapers that Italy must work to make itself self contained, in order that its depend ence on foreign products might be ended, was followed up by Virginio Gayda, often regarded as Mussolini's mouthpiece, with an editorial in the 0iornale D'Atalia in which he argued:
 1. That the domestic economic system must be completely revised SO that Italy will be independent.
 2. That the system of foreign trade relations must be revised.

POLICY GAME TO
 BE PROSECUTED
Arrests Will Be Made Said Supt. Roach When Xvi.
 dence Is Secured

Arrests of policy operators just as soon as the necessary evidence can be secured was promised today by Superintendent of Police William J. Roach. Superintendent Roach at the same time pointed out the obvious difficulty of experimenting operators immediately upon discovery that the game was once more being played.
 Police department members are under orders to bring in suspects on whom they can secure enough evi- dence to warrant the placing of charges" Superintendent Roach said. "These orders are standing; they still hold good"
 Played Very Secretly
 He called attention to the fact that the game is played surreptiti- ously and that the operators always exercise extreme care in accepting plays. He pointed to several arrests of out-of-toWn operators during the past several weeks by members Of the vice squad as evidence of police vigilance in the apprehension Of policy writers.
 "In each case, 1t was necessary to use caution before arrests were made" the superintendent declared. After receiving the tip that the game was being played here by out of town operators, the arresting of flcers had to secure concrete evi- dence of actual plays"
 Refers To Writers
 Superintendent Roach referred to policy writers from New Haven who were brought in several weeks ago by the vice squad an dto Q writer of Italian" policy who was said also to be in the employ of an out Of town combination. Arraignment in city court followed each arrest.
 The superintendent also said he understood that policy writers from Naugatuck and from Thomaston had also attempted to gain foothold in the city. In answer to queries yesterday States Attorney Lawrence l.. Lewis placed responsibility for further policy arrests directly in the hands of the police department.
