The new French government an
nounced today a program to moder'

CThe Normandie at present is in

Admiral Jean Darlan, secretary

WASHINGTON, July 23.-PS
Rear Admiral Ben Moreell, chief Of

today there would be a serious short.

naval construction program gets in.
to full swing.
AS an Illustration of progress,
Moreell told the house naval com.
mittee that 125 contracts totalling
$1S6, SCI, Alb had been awarded last
month, as against $3.50, 900 900 for
the whole of the last fiscal year.
He was testifying on a measure
authorizing public works construc.
ton as part of the Nays $780,.
OOO, 900 expansion program.
When the admiral reached an item
in the bill calling for the expenditure
of $154, 900 for officers quarters at
Guam, Representative Mass (R.

"Why not add $4,000, 900 and fix
up that island?"
Chairman Vinson D-Ga.) tried to
cut short the discussion Of the far

was refused earlier in the session.

Baltic States Merger
Hailed By Red Pres.

MOSCOW, July 23.-R-Sunday's
decision of the Latvian, Estonian
and Lithuanian parliaments to seek
union with Soviet Russia opens "a
new bright page -. on the history
of the peoples of the Baltic states"

The elections of members to the
three parliamentary bodies July ID
and Is was described as a clear
expression "of the unanimous will
of these peoples"
ELECTION of new parliaments and
the merger decisions followed Red
army occupation of the three Baltic
states and an intensive propaganda
campaign.) p
"The gloomy past, hated by the
working people of Lithuania, Lat
via and Estonia, is forever wiped
out" the editorial said. Bourgeois
politicians sold out to Anglo-French
capital and riding on the backs of
the peoples with the help of
British bayonets, obligingly trans
formed their states into war bases
for an attack against the Soviet

9 BRITISH SHIPS
SUNK DURING WEEK
4 Allied And 6 Neutral
Vessels Also Sunk In
Same Period

LONDON, July 23.-LR-The ad-
miralty announced today that nine
British merchant ships totalling
23, 1903 tons, four Allied ships to-
falling 1885 tons and six neutral
ships totalling TO- 34 tons were
sunk by enemy action in the week
ended July IA.
An authoritative source denied
German claims to having sunk
IAN enormous total of merchant
shipping" and said the Nazis had
'purposely used vague terms" and
mixed naval with mercantile los
ses.
This source recalled a German
communicate of July IL which, he
said, declared that 4,329,213 tons
of enemy shipping or shipping
useful to the enemy" had been
sunk since the beginning of the
war.
If this claim included British,
Allied and neutral ships it was
more than 1000, 900 tons in excess
of actual losses, the source de-
clared, while if it included only
British ships it was nearly four
times the true figures.

Care
BY LOGAN CLENDENING, M. d.

~ Nv AVA -
The thyroid gland in the neck
is one of the four most important
glands of internal secretion. II
works along in conjunction with
the other three-the pituitary, the
adrenals and the pancreas.
An enlargement of the thyroid
gland, goiter, usually means that
there is an increased secretion, an
when the gland atrophies we think
of a decreased secretion which in
an advanced form leads to a con.
dition known as mxyedema. How.
ever, there r many minor forms
of thyroid deficiency not serious
enough to be called myxedema. In
a series of cases examined at the
University of K a n S a S Endocrine
Clinic, less than 10 per cent com.
posed the advanced forms of de.
ficiency of thyroid secretion.
When It's Lacking
1t is often thought that a lack
of thyroid secretion produces ODE.
sity, overweight and a phlegmatic
mental state, but in the minor
forms quite the opposite is true.
Obesity is very seldom the result
of lack of thyroid secretion and
most of these patients are quite
definitely underweight.
Instead of being phlegmatic, a
great many of these minor forms
of thyroid deficiency were neTv.
GUS; they had often first been dag.
nosed as neurasthenia or hysteria
by other physicians and had quite
frequently been given sedatives.
Dry skin and hair, mental and
physical sluggishness, constipa-
ton, obscure aches and pains,
headaches ache the pimply face
of adolesence), lack of bone de-
velopment, the falling out of hair,
itching, sensitivity to cold, palpi-
tation of the heart, are all sub
ject to treatment by the proper adj
justment of the decreased thyroid
activity.
Get Doctors Advice
The logical treatment when there
is a deficient thyroid secretion
is to supply thyroid extract taken
from animals and given by mouth.
This is available, on the judgment
ness. Children held back at school
of a physician and can be OBJ
tanned in proper strength. On the
use OF this, many of these patients
fatten up and, %curiously enough,
say that it makes them sleep bet
ter and alleviates their nervous
ness. Children held back at school
on account of poor scholarship have
skipped a grade on taking n e
needed thyroid extract.
The dry skin and oily face OF
the adolescent youth who has acne
frequently clears up under the use
of thyroid extract.
Children take thyroid extract
very well, although it should al
ways be taken under the are of a
physician, and frequently admin
istration should be stopped for sew
eral days in order to reduce the
amount of stimulation which the
drug invariably ca11Ses
