Pyorrhea and vifamin C

Many investigators have discov-
cred that a deficiency of vitamin
c causes profound changes, not
only in the gums, but also in the
enamel and dentine of the teeth.
1t has been suggested that pyor-
rhea may be associated directly
with a vitamin C deficiency.
Certainly, there is enough con-
vincing evidence, as result Of
work with both children and
adults, to indicate the Importance
of an adequate supply of vitamin
c in maintaining healthy teeth.

DISEASE
LAID TO COLDS

ARLINGTON, Va, March II.
To avoid sinus infection, avoid
common colds, DR.. Earle c.
Brown, Arlington health officer,
warned today.
Repeated attacks of colds OF
other acute infectious diseases
leave the sinus infection in the
head cavities, the official stated
in his weekly health bulletin. He
urged prompt treatment of acute
infections to prevent chronic
cases.
Brown said:
The disease is of frequent
occurrence in young children,
as well as adults. The majority
of persons who complain of
chronic 'catarrh' are in reality
victims of sinus infection.
Exercise proper precautions
against the common cold, but
obtain prompt treatment if it
develops. Avoid snuffing solu-
tionS up the nose, as disease
germs may be carried into the
sinuses with the solution, and
use care in blowing the nose"

ROME APPROVES
HITLER SEIZURE
BY FRANK GERVASI

ROME, March IL Q.N.S0.-
Twice rejecting French appeals for
Joint demarche against Ger
many, Italy today accepted Reichs-
.uehrer Hitler's occupation of Aus
ria and contented itself with
massing troops at the Brenner
Pass.
Premier MusSolini acquiesced in
ale German action, it was learned,
when Hitler promised him former
Germans in the italian tyrol will
not be molested. II Duce also was
represented as viewing the Aus
5rian situation as strictly an inter
nal matter.
The Italian tyrol is for Italians,
the Fuehrer said, and Nazi expan-
sion will not go further south than
The Bremen Pass.
FRENCH ENVOY REBUFFED
On two occasions during the
past "a hours, M. Blondell, the
French charge d'affaires, called
on Foreign Minister Count Gal
leazo Ciano with a plea for joint
action. On both occasions he was
rebuffed.
The italian government officially
declared its full and unreserVed
approval of the German coup as
a natural consequence of the
fundamental policy of the Rome
Berlin axis"
Meanwhile, Britain moved to
speed negotiations for an Anglo
italian friendship treaty. British
Ambassador Lord Parth called on
Ciano and a lengthy discussion OF
the Austrian situation ensued.
Ciano told Lord Parth that Italy
is not prepared to go to war to
stem Hitler and has no intention
of intervening directly or indi
rectly in Austria.
COMPLETE RENEWAL
Authoritative indications Rome
will not NEEDLE in the Berlin
Vienna situation came after a
meeting of the Fascist Grand
Council, which announced that
effective March % the Italian
Chamber of Deputies will cease to
exist and will be merged with
the Chamber of Corporations.
Since Austrian independence
has been Mussolini's chief political
maxim, his attitude today was re
garded as a complete reversal OF
policy.
Foreign office Spokesmen admit
ted the situation was delicate and
grave" but Italy informed Britain
and France that she was mo more
prepared to fight for Austrian in
tegrity than France and Britain
are"

WPA PAY CUT,
SHE SITS DOWN

With an appointment to confer
with Aubrey Williams, deputy ad-
ministrator of the WPA, on her
pay cut as a WPA seWing-project
worker from $50 to $50 a month,
a young New York widow was pre-
pared to enter the second phase
of her Capital "sit-down" strike
today.
Mrs. Edna Catty, %, is the
widow. The mother of two chill
dren, she arrived at the White
House yesterday and took seat
in the reception room outside the
presidential offices, determined to
sit there until the President him
self saw her.
She sat from 2::30 p. m. to $3.50
before she was persuaded to aban-
don the strike in favor of room
in the Y. w. C. A., but that is
only half the story.
LOOKS FLOORED THEM
White House correspondents
had been tipped" that a widow
was to lay her plight before the
president, and were in a properly
Iachrymose mood about it in ad-
vance.
Mrs. Catty had been sitting"
fully an hour before the correspon-
dents discovered her. You see,
they hadn't quite been expecting
what they found.
The widow turned out to be a
blonde, blue-eyed and very good
looking. She wore an expensive
fur coat, and her legs were
sheathed in superior grade silk
stockings. Her hat was this years
creation, and her carefully mar
celled locks were faultlesS.

"REORGANIzING"
Charges Foes of Bill
il Are StaIIing

GN.SO Administration chief
tains today demanded passage Of
the Federal reorganization bill by
next Saturday, with Majority
Leader Barkley of Kentucky
charging dilatory tactics to block
action on the bitterly.fought meas,
ure.
While the Senate was not in
session today the fight went on
for votes on both sides of the
fight. There were also moves for
a compromise.
With the outlook for another
round Of Senate debate next week
on the feud between directors of
the Tennessee Valley Authority,
the Kentuckian pleaded with COL
leagues to saw wood" on the re-
organization bill.
FOOD, DRUG BILL UP
He has brandished the "big
stick" of night sessions unless
greater speed on the measure is
shown. Attempts will be made to
have the Senate start voting on
the less controversial features OF
the bill Monday.
First to be disposed of, however,
is the conference report on the
food and drug bill, which gives
the Federal Trade Commission
regulatory powers long held by
the Agriculture Department. A
vote on the report at 1:30 p. M,
Monday, has been set.
TIGHTER CAD" LAW
Power would be given to the
Federal Trade Commission, to
initiate without complaints from
the public, Investigations of COM
panies the commission believes to
be engaged in unfair trade prac-
ticeS. Present law governing mis-
leading advertisements also is
frightened.
With that measure out of the
Way-Senate approval seemed Ger
tain-the reorganization bill again
will hold the center of the stage.
Enemies of the bill were bend
ing their efforts for an amend
ment to give Congress a final say
on whatever reorganization plan
the President makes pursuant to
the bill.
WHEELER AMENDMENT
Senator Wheeler has offered an
amendment to require the Presi-
dents reorganization plan to have
affirmative approval of Congress
before it can go into effect. A
compromise being discussed would
permit Congress by concurrent
resolution to override any part OF
the reorganization plan adopted
by the President.
A concurrent resolution is not
subject to presidential approval.
Argument of the compromise ad-
vocates was that under the
Wheeler plan tWo-thirdS vote OF
Congress would be required toI
override a veto of the President
should he disapprove of a veto"
by Congress of his reorganization
scheme.

panied the detachments of the
German army marching into Aus
tria.
"HEIL HITLER 8x
met the German column Of
three battalions about IL miles
out of Innsbruck near the village
of Zirl. Innsbruck itself was
jammed with a throng waving
hastily improvised swastikas.
Crowds were shouting "Heil
Hitler!" They gave the impression
that entrance of the German
army into InneSbruck was a mat
ter of historic Importance and
joyful event comparable with lib
Grafton of a country.
It is true that Innesbruck has
always been a strong Nazi center
as is also Linz, where other de-
tatchmentS of German troops are
entering.
The German troops were led by
machine-gun platoon and then
a battery of motorized anti-air-
craft and anti-tank guns which
had to wait many hours just out
side of Innesbruck for the in
fantry to catch up.
DUSTY FROM MARCHING
All were wearing the new field
green uniforms, dusty from many
hours of marching. They lived up
tO appearance of Reichswehr as
probably the most formidable
force in Europe.
However, from appearance of
the Tyrolean population and from
the size of German detachments
here which do not number over
1000, the German military action
at present is a demonstration and
not an occupation.
Just three days after Kurt
Schuschnigg, in a speech at Inns
bruck, announced a plebiscite to
save Austria from the Nazis, this
city today received news of his
arrest by the Nazi secret police,
which has taken over control.
TYROLEANS IN SONG
Tens of thousands of Innsbruck
Tyroleans shouted and repeatedly
sang Deutschland Uber Allies and
the Horst Vessel song while they
witnessed the day-long arrival of
German troops. No one sang the
Austrian hymn.
Many stood on the curbside
from early morning throughout
the day. Hitler's troops waited
for many hours outside the city
polishing their uniforms to march
in as "the greatest army on earth"
to the accompaniment of martial
music.
Truckloads of swastika flags
from Germany were distributed
to the waiting multitude while
German orators nounce d
through loud-speakers planted at
100-yard intervals along the pa
rade route that the frontier be-
tween Austria and Germany had
disappeared and that the Fuehrer
soon will return to his native
home"
HITLER YOUTH LINE CURBS
School children wearing arm
bands of the Hitler Youth Move
ment lined the curbs two-deep for
many blocks.
The only painful impression was
created by an elderly Jewish
woman seen holding out her trem-
bling hand in a Hitler salute and
quavering the Horst Vessel song.
According to Innsbruck Nazis,
most Jewish merchants in the city
fled the country last night.
Most of them escaped in taxi,
cabs across the Italian frontier.
1t was necessary for many of them
to liquidate by forced sale within
"a hours business some of which
for centuries had been in the same
family.
