the proposal for a two per cent ex-

less than 500 exempted
Not in many years, if ever, has the
biennial revenue measure gone as
smoothly as this one. In marked con-
trast to- the 1887 session, the appro-
priatiOns bill has had more trouble
in the House Of Representatives and
is expected to encounte more in the
Senate than the revenue measure did
Last session the then Chairman
Libby Ward put the appropriation
bill through the House in committee

Senator DR.. Long was more sue,
cessful on his side of the house than
Bladen's Bombshell Page was on the
other in soaking headache powders
for higher sales taxes. DR.. Long had
supported legislation requiring that
i all remedies containing any coal tar
lerivative should be marked as poi
son. Failing to get that idea accepted
he came at them with a tax bill that
will soak them for upwards of a
quarter million dollars a year. SINH
lar proposal by Page wasn't accepted
in the House, but with the now great
er need for money and the desire of
members to get through and go home,
the Long amendment will quite like
ly be accepted by the House.
Not only is North Carolina going
after the headache powders, but the
publicity given the matter here has
attracted attention of other states,
and requests are coming to Raleigh
almost daily for information as to
profits, income taxes, ETC., of the
i manufacturers. North Carolina pro-
duces a large percentage of the total
| of such drugs manufactured in the
United States.

Leaders of the party, like State

choice and none Of them would go

consisting of paralysis and SWELL
ing of the lower legs with heart
failure, called beri-beri. Many at
tempts were made to solve the prob
lem OF the cause of this disease.
Finally 1t was proved that people
who caught it lived on an ill-bal-
anced diet, mostly on rice. But
the interesting thing was shown to
be the fact that people who lived on
whole rice grains did not acquire
the disease. Those who practiced
the custom of milling" the rice or
polishing" it,e a process which
rubbed off the outer shell of the rice
and made it softer and more pal
atable, were the ones who acquired
berl-beri. So it was assumed and
afterwards proved that only certain
parts of cereal grains contain this
necessary food factor. 1t is found
in the wheat germ and in the shell
only of most cereals.
Peculiar Statement
Now we also pointed to the state
ment yesterday that it is said that
beri-beri is endemic in the United
States. This is peculiar statement
because beri-beri has been largely a
tropical disease in rice-eating coun-
tries, and certainly the United
States is not much of a relocating
nation, The explanation lies in the
fact that many people may be eat
ing a badly-balanced diet or they
may be eating well-balanced diet
and yet not be able to absorb it.
A list of the circumstances which
might develop beri-beri paralysis
in the United States is as follows:
~ prolonged strenuous activity
due to delirium or other forms of |
mental alteration; ~ fever of long
duration, such as tuberculosis, ty-
phoid or malaria; 81 the vomiting
of pregnancy; (4) rapid growth so
that the body outstrips the diet

The governor of the Panama Ca

from existing ones to lessen chances
of enemy aircraft disabling the
waterway with a single well-placed

Bland said his committee would

that it would take about seven years
to complete the Nicaragua canal, and
thus could not help in current de-

Alcoholics Often
Beri- Beri Victims
That Is Commonest Cause Of Condition in the United
States Today, DR.. CIendening Points Out

, Similation from diarrhea, colitls.
intestinal parasites, disease of the
stomach, liver or gall-bladder; (6)
increased excretion as in diabetes.
COmmOnest Cause
Of course, the commonest cause
of beri-beri in the United States is
alcoholic addiction. When the al
cohol addict depends entirely on this
drug for a long period of time and
eats nothing, he is bound to be de-
prived of vitamin b.
Vitamin b now has a chemical
name and, like many of the vita
Minis, it's chemical structure is we'll
known. This was not always true
and it has been due to prolonged
and scholarly researches that the
vltamlns have finally disclosed their
actual chemical structure.
The chemical name of vitamin B
is thiamin and in the conditions
which have just been listed above,
it can be used in it's pure concen-
trated form just as medicine. This
is not necessary for normal people
who get plenty of vitamin B in their
ordinary diet.
Universally Needed
Thiamin is widely distributed in
nature and, of all the vitamins, it n
the one most universally needed by
all forms Of life. It is needed by
plants as we'll as animals. It is
needed for the growth of plants
and for the growth of bacteria,
some of which can synthesize it for
their own use. It is needed by all
insects and, indeed, by all animals
that have been tested.
Besides it's influence on the nerv-
Gus system, it is very necessary for
the promotion of growth. Ut is
probably an associated vitamin, B..
