Text on Torpedo Boats
White House Announces End Of
Negotiations on Deferred Deliveries
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The tert OF the White House
statement yesterday announc-
ing President Roosevelt had
ordered halt in negotiation
for foreign sale OF 20 torpedo
boats tollolDS::
The President today author
lied the Navy Department to put
an end to pending negotiations
with the Electric Boat Co. by
which the department would
have accepted deferred delivery
on 20 experimental motor tor
pedo boats-boats which the
British government wanted to
purchase and which, if the ne
gotiations had been successfully
concluded, the Electric Boat Co.
would have sold to the British.
Decision Reached on
Advice From Attorney General.
The Presidents decision put
ting a stop to the negotiations,
however, was reached by him as
soon as he received an informal
opinion prepared by the Attrney
General. In this opinion, the
Attorney General advised the
President that the sale and de-
livery of motor torpedo boats by
an American builder to a bel
ligerent government would seem
to be prohibited by section of
Title V of the act of June Is,
1917" which provides:
During a war in which the
United States is a neutral Ma
ton, it shall be unlawful to send
out of the jurisdiction of the
United States any vessel built
as vessel of war = with
any intent or under any agree
ment ** that such vessel shall
be delivered to a belligerent ma
ton or with the reasonable
cause to believe that the said
vessel shall or will be employed
in the service of any such bel
ligerent nation after its depar-
ture from the jurisdiction of the
United States"
Military Advantages of Deal
Outlined by Compton.
Lewis Compton, Acting Secre-
tary of the Navy, also gave the
President today a memorandum
in which he set forth five mill
tary advantages the Navy would
have received if the proposed
sale of the torpedo boats had
been possible under the law.
Military advantages to the Navy,
the Acting Secretary said, in
cluded the following:
Cd The Navy would receive
boats which will carry 21-inch
standard United States Navy
torpedoes instead of 18-inch
torpedoes-a type of weapon OBJ
solete in the United States Navy
and not now in production and
with only limited supply on
hand. The 2l-inch torpedoes
have a warhead of about double

Prompt and Adequate

Says Gen. Johnson
Recalls 'FumbIine'

CHICAGO, June 25.-The United
States, in the opinion of Gen.

prompt and adequate national de-
fense program.
The former N. R. A. head and
World War veteran, speaking at
the annual banquet of the Adver-
tising Federation of America last
night, declared that in spite of all
the recent ballyhoo and the bill
lions of appropriation, we are not
going to get the stuff in time to
make our armament a factor in the
settlement of the rapidly develop
ing crisis"
I'VE could get it," he said. "The
World War proved that, properly
led, American industry can pro-
duce almost anything it is called
upon to produce and do it with a
speed never equaled in any coun-
try"
1T is true that we fumbled and
bungled for IL months after the
declaration of war in April, 1917,
before we had our industry suffi-
GENTLY modified to produce and
that it was six months after we
scrapped the Council of National
Defense under the 1916 statute and

Bomb Is Found in Train
Which Left Washington

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 25.-A strange
metal container, thought to be a
bomb by members of the police bomb
squad, was found in Pullman
coach at Pennsylvania Station last
night in train just in from Wash
ington.
A porter found the suspicious
looking object in rack over a seat
and railroad officials called police
and the fire department.
Inspector James Callahan of the
Bureau of Combustibles removed
the top from the cylindrical con-
tainer, 18 inches long and 4 inches
in diameter, and found 1t held a
quantity of powder.
The device appeared to be
equipped with percussion cap.
Authorities were reluctant to dis
cuss the find. The contrivancc and
its contents were taken to the Bu-
reau of Combustibles for further
study.
Capt. Ira E. Keck, assistant chief
OF detectives here, said Washington
police had received no official word
from New York regarding the object
believed to be bomb found in a
railroad car in that city.
Capt. Keck suggested it may be
a bomb which some inventor had
brought here and forgotten and left
on the train.

Five Tacoma Bakeries Offer
Vitamin b. in White Bread
Federal. Golden Rule. Jordan. Model
And Tacoma Bakeries Follow New Trend

in their white bread. said a spokes-
man for the Tacoma bakers. The
new Vitamin B-l bread offered BY
the five Taeoma bakeries contains
$50 International Units Of yitamin
R-1 per pound-the equivalent Of
the whole wheat grain itself
international Units Of Nitsmin
B. are the most widely used meas
ure of this substance. said
formal statement issued By the
Tacoma bakers. However. an
other measure known as Sherman
Units is some times employed.
Roughly. the ratio between the
two different systems of measure
ment is two to one: in other words.
100 International Units of Vitamin
B-1 equals 200 Sherman Units.
Important q Diet
An adequacy Of Xitamin b. IN
the diet is important because this
vitamin plays so vital a part in
the functions of the human body.
II is in no sense a medicine, but
rather an essential food element
which keeps the digestive tract in
order and tones up the nervous
system. Extreme Vitamin B-1 de-
ficiency results in the disease
known as beri-beri. Lesser degrees
of Deficiency may show them
selves in the following ways: loss
of appetite. muscle cramps, consti-
patton, vague pains. palpitation.
burning sensations in various parts
of the body. numhness and tingling.
nervousness, depression and irrita-
bility'
Recent scientific discoveries in
the vitsmin field have shown that
Vitamin B-1 is not stored in the
human body. And while everyday
foods contain other vitamins, none
of them contains Vitsmin b. in
abundance. For this reason. daily
intake of Vitamin B. is said To
be important for health and we'll
being.
Good For Children
Children especially, 1t Is said.
need Vitamin b. since it promotes
growth and appetite.
Many people do not understand
just what vitamins are" the bak-
ers' statement said. They con-
slider them mysterious forces that
in some way affect the body. not
realizing that they are actual or
ganic substances-food clements
which can be seen with the naked
eye just as you can see sugar or
salt. These substances are needed
in varying quantities by the human
body - minute quantities. really.
But they are. nevertheless. neces-
sary for growth and maintainence
of normal physical structure and
normal functioning of the body.
"Vitamin b. is often called
Thiamin by many scientists"
Individual Needs Vary
The amount of Vitamin 81
needed by individuals varies with
age. size and other factors. Ac-
cording to the U. S. department
of agriculture, this amount varies
from 200 international Units for
children under four years, TO 500
international Units for adults over
20 years of age. The department
has also pointed out that a study
the diets Of wage-earning
families in cities shows half of the
diets supplied less than the sug-
gested number of Vitamin b. units
Because of this the Tacoma
bakers point out. bread is an ideal
food for supplying Vitamin b..
Bread is universal food. eaten
every day. And the fact that it
can supply so much of the needed
Vitamin B-1 makes this new bak-
ing development real contribu-
ton to nutrition and health"
