C. w.: "Please send me a diet for
acute Indigestion"
Answer-A diet for acute indiges-
tion is as follows: Cream vegetable
soups-tomato, pea, celery, etc.;
oatmeal and rice-these should be
thoroughly boiled for at least two
hours in order to break up cellulose
husks and served with cream and

tards, tapioca, wine Jelly, rice pud-
ding, orange juice. Avoid fried
foods. meat of all kinds, fruit, veg
etables with a heavy residue, salads,
highly-spiced foods and butter.
M. T. B.: care beef, iron and wine
good for anemia, and what causes
anemia? Are there certain foods
that should be eaten?"
Answer-There are a great many
different kinds Of anemia and the
question of treatment depends on
the diagnosis. The diagnosis should
be determined by your physician. If
the anemia is called Primary Addi-
sonian Anemia, it can be success
fully treated by the use of liver or
liver extract. If it is Secondary
Anemia, iron will be beneficial. I do
not know how much iron is in beef,
iron and wine, but I do. not believe
there is enough for proper treat
ment. A number Of foods, such as
spinach, grapes and raisins, contain
quite large amounts of iron.

Role of Environment
In Learning to Read

/ might depend on right or left-hand-
edness, or right or left-eyedness.
Some people are born, you know,
with the urge to write from right
to left (mirror writing). Leonardo
da Vinci was one, so it isn't exactly
sign of lack Of intelligence. And
some naturally like to read, as the
Chinese do, from the bottom Of the
page up and from right to left.
In general the conclusion may be
drawn that retardation in learning
to read is more due to environments
tai influences that anything else. Il
there are real physical obstacles,

not interfere in affairs which did
not, Hitler held, concern 1t.

RUMORS FLYING
Diplomats received reports that
Germany had agreed to concede to
Russia a zone of influence" in the
Baltic states. II was on the Bal
tic states that British-F rench-Rus-
sian alliance negotiations had be-
come d~eadlocked.
According to the British and
French version, II Russia's terms
had been accepted Russia would
have been empowered TO intervene
in Baltic affairs if she disapproyed
of any Baltic government.
The question was asked now
whether the British and French
military missions to Moscow had
given Russia any secret informa-
ton.
