DIR. Underwood, State Dentist,
Spoke To Rotary Club
Last Week.

"Above everything else, the
health of our people is. of the
most supreme Importance" DR..
Underwood, State Board of

working in Ashe county, told the

tary Club last Thursday night.
Material progress is definitely
dependent upon the condition of

lie health work today is more es-
sential than ever before because
we live closer together, he sta
ted.
can unhealthy or diseased
mouth is the most dangerous Of
all things to good health" DR..
Underwood asserted and quoted
figures to show how much indi-
viduals neglect their teeth.
Of the million school children
in the state, he said statistics
showed that IS per cent of them
have some form of physical de-
feet. "The most outstanding one
of these defects is undernourish-
ment."
Undernourishment does not
mean undertaking, but not feed
ing or eating the proper kinds of
food, he explained. "This is one
of the great causes of bad teeth"
he said.
Of the 1853 children examined
in the county by him and DR..
Koontz, 600 permanent teeth
need filling and of the total num-
Der of children, only 8 of them
had ever been to dentist. He
said their program was educa-
tional and corrective.
The speaker was introduced by
DR.. Hunter, who had charge OF
the program. Several visitors
were present.

May Establish
Military Training
AT The University
Charges of Radicalism, Wild
cat Freedom at Chapel
Hill Unit Were Made.

Raleigh.-Charges that radical
ism and wildcat freedom" ex-
listed at the Chapel Hill unit of
the Greater University of North
Carolina were aired Sat. at a
stormy session of the university's
board of trustees.
At the climax of a torrid de-
bate, Frank P. Graham told the
trustees that as long as he was
president of the University he
was going to keep it "open and
Free. He added that he did not
wish to be connected with the
university if the trustees through
that such a policy was ''pervert-
ing.
Quickly, many members of the
board-including Josephus Dan
iels of Raleigh, United States
ambassador to Mexico-rallied to
the defense of DR.. Graham and
his administration.
The subject finally was dropped
without action, but not until
pointed hints had been dropped
concerning the political activi-
ty" of DR.. Ralph w. Mcdonald,
associate director of extension at
Chapel Hill; and not until blunt
warning had been issued that
the university radio station
might be used for personal or
political propaganda.
The most far-reaching resolu-
ton passed by the trustees con-
templates the establishment of
military training at the Chapel
Hill unit. The resolution intro
duced by United States Circuit
Judge John J. Parker, of Char
lotte, instructed Governor Hoey
to appoint committee to con-
slider the matter.

next January. Then America, in
quiet confidence, will stand four

erosion"
