Garry Mann made the experiment
Of observing separate groups Of
children. Careful records of
height. weight and physical fit
ness were kept Of each member of
both groups. One group on an adc-
Quate basic diet gained 1910
pounds and grew 8/i0 inches. In
the other group on the same basic
diet but with the addition OF one
pint Of milk a day, they gained in
the same period of time 69/10
pounds and grew 2 6iI0 inches.
Milk Made the Difference
If observed for long time the
two groups were seen TO carry out
this tendency regularly and con-
tinuOusly. DR.. Mann wrote, THE

recognize the boys receiving the
extra ration OF milk. They were
obviously more fit
The menace to the population
of Europe in the present crisis

Senate Expected
To Approve Shift
OF Alien Control
Liberals Protest
Police Regime Over
1000, 900 in U. S.

The Senate was expected to
approve transfer of the immigration
Service from the Labor to the
Justice Department today despite
opposition Of some liberal Senators
and the American Civil Liberties

In a letter to President Roosevelt,
the union charged that the proposed
shift might result in virtual police

population, estimated at 100000.
, Senators Norris, Independent, of
Nebraska and Wheeler, Democrat,
of Montana led opposition in the
Senate to the House-approved reso-
luton for putting the transfer into
4, effect in 10 days. Both acknowledged
that their views were not shared by
, the majority of Congress.

President Roosevelt proposed
transfer of the Immigration Service
on the ground that it would enable
. the Government to deal quickly"
with subverslve elements.
Senator Norris, who has expressed
fear that j. Edgar Hoover and his
Federal Bureau of Investigation
might obtain control of the service,
told the Senate that Hoover will
operate upon thousands and thou
sands of helpless people"
Senator Byrnes, Democrat, of
South Carolina, supporting the pro-
posal to put the plan into effect.

conclusion OF his nearly two dec
AIDES as a Farmer-Laborite. he's
running on the Republican ticket.
The Farmer-Laborites long have
been classified as decidedly liberal.
Senator Shipstead certainly has
been so considered. Upon switch
ing over to Republicanism, he ex-
planned that he was changing his
label because ne felt that the
Farmer-Labor group had passed
under control Of an undesirable
element Considering his back
ground, It might reasonably, have
been assumed that he objected to
the undersirables on the ground
that they had turned overly con-
sentative. On that theory one
would rather have expected that
he'd join the New Dealers, who
certainly profess to be today's lib
eral party. Instead he joined the
Republicans.
True, it's to be admitted that
there are plenty of conservative,
anti-New Deaf Democrats and
some quite liberal Republicans.
However, generally speaking, the
pro-administration D EN- ocrats
claim to be the country's liberals,
and the Republicans are more In
clined to put the brakes on.

Senator Shipstead, to be sure,
though a liberal, hasn't been a
New Dealer. He's been his own

Your Health

All go Muscles in
Body Used When a
PLAYER Runs
BY Logan Ciendening, NJ. d.
o How many muscles are used IN
running? In playing football?
There are around $50 muscles in
the body. Many of these are small
in the feet, hands and face.
There are $50 muscles in the
thighs. legs and feet, and some
200 muscles in the trunk, and in
the arms and hands approximately
the same number as in the legs.
II you look at an instantaneous
picture of an athlete starting a
hundred yard dash you can see
that all these muscles are used,
not only the leg muscles. The leg
muscles release most of the en-
ergy, but the muscles of tn, trunk,
especially the back, have to be
braced to furnish a fulcrum for
the leg muscles to pull against.
Then equilibrium is maintained by
the arms. The runners shoulder
and arm muscles are tensed and
