u. S. Diplomats on Way
To Discuss Release

IRUN, Spain, at the French
Spanish Frontier, May 26 (P).-Du-
wayne Clark and George w. Poland,
jr., United States Embassy repre-
sentatives, crossed into France
again this morning to discuss the
removal of l40 American passengers
of the Egyptian steamer zamzam,
sunk in the South Atlantic by the
Germans.
Arrangements have been COM
pleted with Spanish and Portuguese
railway companies for the 24-hour
trip to Lisbon from the frontier
and the group now awaits only
the formalities of Spanish and
Portuguese visas.
Some difficulties have been en-
eountered in providing food, but

picture since the 1885 yardstick was
established.
Sample Diet.
All three serve major purpose
in different ways-the burning OF
carbohydrates such as starches and
sugars to supply energy for the
body. Without adequate supplies
of them individuals develop such
deficiency diseases as pellagra, beri-
beri and the newly discovered ari-
bof1avinosis. Even in mild degrees
all of these maladies are destructive
of energy and morale.
The new standard. DR.. Wilder ex-
planned, was compiled by a COM
mittee working under Dr.. Lydia J.
Roberts, professor of Home Eco
nomics at the University of Chicago
Data was assembled from hundreds
of food studies. r
The standard could be met, DR..
Wilder explained, in many ways. 1t
varies for sexes, age groups and
type of employment. A sample diet
which would come close to meet
ing the standard, he said, would be:
One pint of milk a day for an
adult and more for a child; one
serving of meat; one egg or some
suitable substitute such as navy
beans; two vegetables, one of which
should be yellow, as carrots; two
fruits, one of which should be rich
in vitamin G, found abundantly in
citurus fruits and tomatoes; bread
and cereal. preferably whole grain
or enriched with vitamins and min
erals; some butter or oleomargarine
with vitamin A, necessary to guard
against infections, added. There
should be enough other foods, &C
cording to taste, to satisfy the
appetite.
Required Amounts of Vitamins.
The required amounts of vitamins
given in the table below are ex-
pressed either in milugrams or in

The shooting, which occurred dur

Morris Zuckerman, and Joseph Fojo,
26, over 75-cent return check.
The patrolman said he fired the

cause for the delay has been the

quantities.
One-fourth Have Good Diet.
DR.. Russell M. Wilder of the Mayo
Clinic, chairman of the National
Research Committee on Nutrition,
stressed that recent studies have
shown that not more than one fam
lily in four in the United States is
living on a good diet and that at
least a third of the people have
less than the minimum prescribed
by science.
Fundamental knowledge of nutri-
tion, he stressed, still is in its in
fancy. Almost up to the present in
formation concerning vitamins has
been obtained only from animal ex-
periments and, DR.. Wilder said,
physicians have been loath to apply
them to humans.
Last night DR.. Wilder'S commit
tee announced new minimum food
standard for the Nation.
The last nutrition standard, it
was explained by DR.. Wilder, was
set up by a committee of the League
of Nations in 1885, but at that time
the actual requirements of some
of the essential minerals and vita
Minis were not known. The chief
changes are intended to enrich the

Evolution Of Policy
Seen Forced on Turks
By Axis Occupations
Nozi-Produeed Armoments
Reported Transported
Across AnutoIio

=, the Associated Press.
ANKARA, Turkey, May 26.-With
the nation facing semi-encircle-
ment by the Axis armies of occupa-
ton, many Turkish political observ-
ers were inclined to agree today
that the country's foreign policy
must undergo an evolution"
Turkey has been a ncn-belliger-
ent ally of Britain since the war
began and has received British
financial and economic help.
Passage from the Black Sea Of
the first carloads of Nazi-produced
armaments was seen as the initial
development in the changing situa-
tion for Turkey.
Meanwhile, responsible sources
denied categorically foreign reports
that the Axis had requested permis-
sion to move troops through Turkey.
They said the question had never
been raised with the government
here by either Germany or Italy.
The Turkish National Railroad
has transported acroS Anatolla q
test shipment Of German-made mil
itary supplies consigned to 1raq,
well-informed quarters revealed.
The shipment, although small, was
considered an important precedent
for heavy traf1ic should Iraq re-
sistance remain uncrushed.
Iraq persuaded the Turkish gov
ernn1ent to grant railroad favors in
return for assurances that Turkish
imports, now halted at Basra and
Baghad, would be forwarded as
quickly as possible.
British displeasure has been
strongly evidenced over Turkeys in
ability to choke OF the stream of
French surplus army equipment re-
ported sent to Iraq by the Turko-
Syrian rail line running mostly
through Turkish territory.
Turks told the British that
reciprocal agreements with Syria
permit either country to make mill
tary use of the common route re-
gardless of other international OBJ
legations.

-I'll tell you one thing you can
do" he said. Insure your life
for the extra $4,000 and assign
the policy to the fellow who
lends you the money. If you die,
he'll be covered. Someone ought
to lend you the money on that
basis"
Someone did-it was a bank
and I bought the big store. In
the first year l made enough
money to pay off the loan, and
that gave me my insurance
policy back clear of all encum-
brances. Which was a good thing
for me, because just a few years
ago, when times were bad, I
borrowed enough on that same
policy to carry me through some
bad money troubles.
Well, you hear a lot about life
insurance helping widows and
children who can't take care of
themselves, 'and that's the big
gest use for it, and ought to be,
of course but l think people
ought to remember that life in
surance can do other things, too,
such as helping a small business
man like myself.

ounce. One milligram Of thiamin,
the morale vitamin, equals 1913 in
ternational units. One milligram Of
vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, equals
20 international units.
The new standard leaves much
leeway in the matter of vitamin D,
the sunshine vitamin, necessary to
prevent rickets in children, for
adults. There is no question, DR..
Wilder said, but that adults need
it but it is difficult to assess the
amount. The amounts prescribed
for children would not be excess
sive for adults.
The conference was opened by DR..
M. c. Wilson, former Assistant Sec
retary of Agriculture and director
of the National Nutrition Advisory
Committee set up by the President.

Portuguese Authorities
Asked for Blanket Visa

LISBON, Portugal, May 26 Cp)-
A United States Legation spokesman
said today that Portuguese author
tiles had been asked for a blanket
visa for 1873 American survivors OF
the sunken Egyptian liner Zamzam
who are in German custody in oc-
cupied France.
1.-TWO other Americans, wound
ed when the Zamzam was sunk
by shellfire, are said to be aboard
a German hospital ship. When,
or how many, of the others will
be freed by the Germans has not
been disclosed)
The legation hopes to have the
visa in order within four or five
days, the spokesman said.
Original plans were to send the
party back to the United States
aboard the freighter Cold Harbor,
but these were dropped because of
the ships inadequate facilities.

Victory Snatched From Grasp
of Normal Five at Game End

Victory was snatched from the
grasp of Michigan Normal cagers
in the last so seconds of play Sat
urday as Central State nosed out
the Hurons, SO to 80, at Ypsilanti
High School gymnasium.
Sophomore Jed Staley, who en-
tered the game as a reserve guard,
poked a field goal through the net
to place Central State in front by
one-point margin. And that was the
final result when the horn blew
bringing the tilt to a close.
Just 20 seconds before, the Hur-
ons had pushed ahead on a free
throw by Johnny Shada and has.

tant field goal When Official Russ

with a technical foul. BENEFITS was
selected to make the attempt from
the foul shot line. His toss bounced
off the rim. however.
Central's triumph, its second of
the season over the Hurons, raised
its won.and-lost record to ~ vic
tories against two defeats. The loss
extended Normals streak in the
downward direction to five straight.
Staley was in Michigan Normals
way all evening. Although his II
points failed to bring him high
scoring honors, they were Of the
greatest importance because they
were made at strategic moments
For instance. If it had not been
for this tall Eau Claire star, Central

Staley could equal that trick, and

aim was perfect, and the ball
hooked into the hoop just three
seconds before the whistle.
