What Is ROughage?
The question of what is rough
age is somewhat debatable. Fiber
and cellulose are usually consid-
cred to be roughage, but cellulose
is really as bland as any insoluble
substance could be.
The foods which furnish rough
age residues as distinguished from
the bland residues are BRAN
containing cereals,~ whole wheat
bread, fruits and vegetables, par
ticularly raw fruits, and salads and
relishes. The structures that con-
stitute the roughage Of vegetable
foods are ID those held together
by fibrous cells and the wood and
fibers of stems, roots, the ribs OF
leaves, and the interiors of fruits;
~ those protected by the cutin
or cork tissue in the structures Of
roots, stems, leaves and fruits;
(3) seeds. Owing to mucilagi-
nous layer in the coats, some hard
seeds become soft in the digestive
canal or on cooking.
The constipated person requires
more than the normal amount OF
roughage for distention. This is
because he destroys more roughage
than the normal person. Cowgirl
and Anderson estimate that the
average person requires SO parts OF
roughage, while the constipated in
dividuai requires, comparatively, 80
parts of roughage per pound OF
body weight. There is type OF
constipation, however, in which the
digestive canal is so sensitive that
the patient cannot take roughaSe
in any form.

Being Champion at 4 ge of 10

Raymond Fisher is only l9, but
he is champion farmer The first
thing he remembers seeing when he
was a baby was his fathers pasture
in Lone Gum, Ark. When he learned
to walk. he held on to a pitchfork
and stumbled along the path to the
Fishers cotton field.
For this week only Fisher is living
under an Army tent on the edge of
Tidal Basin, a non-agricultural
neighborhood which is playing host
to 100 sons and daughters of the
soil organized as the All Club.
These youths are the cream OF 1,OO0,-
900 club members who plow, plant
and keep house in every State in the
Union.
Fisher is interesting because for
the last couple Of years his family
has lived on 4 Resettlement Admin

REORGANIZATION
BILL HITS SNAG
Senate Members See Little
Chance for Action This
Session.
BY WILL P. KENNEDY.

As far As the Senate Is concerned,
there is little likelihood OF any action
on a general reorganization bill at
this session, it was disclosed yester-
day in the executive session Of the
Senate members OF the Joint Reorgan-
ization Committee, headed by Majority
Leader Robinson.
Senator McNary, the minority lead
er, who Is member OF the COM
mittee, is said to have stated he
could see no chance for action now
and that he felt there should be no
attempt to force through this legis-
lation at this time. There was no
defense offered and the sentiment Of
the committee seemed to be that the
proposed legislation is practically laid
aside for this session.
Senator Robinson announced that
on Monday or Tuesday he will intro
duce a revised bill to carry out the
Presidents program. This will be the
fourth draft. The memorandum which
was considered by the committee yes
terday contained only one change,
namely. to strike out proposed changes
regarding confirmation Of appoint
ments and to restore the present law,
under which appointments are made
by the President subject to Senate con-
flrmation.
Another strong indication that re-
organization plans have been laid
aside definitely is the fact that after
Senator Robinson has introduced his
bill. copies are to be sent to cabinet
and other administrative officers for
their comments. Leaders pointed out
the replies Of these administrative
officers will not be returned to the
Senate committee for some time. Fol-
lowing that. Senator Robinson said,
extensive public hearings are to be
held to give everyone who desires an
opportunity to express their views on
this important matter.

Vice President Says He Will Re-

Needed.

MARILLO, Tex, June 10
IN NANA).-Vice President Garner
took occasion here yesterday to spike
definitely any rumors let loose from
Washington in regard to break with
President Roosevelt.
The dates for this trip were set
weeks ago." he said. We left on our
trip as originally scheduled and told
the boss (Mr. Roosevelt) that I would
be subject to call and would return
Immediately if he needed me. There
is no basis to the rumor"
All other questions in regard to
rumored riffs between himself and
the boss" Mr. Garner refused to
answer. Apparently he felt deeply on
the question because his face became
rosy and his shaggy eyebrows lifted
several times as if the question had
bothered him considerably.
