of which is the city of Leningrad, the
Soviets have been doing remarkably
well lately. Time and again the
world was told that now, and again
now, the city was doomed.
The newest Russian counter
offensive makes it doubtful that
Leningrad will be captured by
the invaders in the near future.
The Moscow or central sector cf
the front continues to defy the nazis
to such an extent that they have
made no real progress for many
weeks, but early this week they
seem to have started an offensive.
But in the south the Russian de-
fense at the moment appears weak
est; here the Germans have taken
Poltava and are now on their way
toward Kharkov, with Crimea and
Caucasus beckoning farther away
So far, there is no indication, in spite
OF earlier rumors, that the British
are planning to send troops to Cau-
casus to help the Russians.
He's Satisfied.
Adolf Hitler himself is pretty well
satisfied with the progress of the
war, especially with his campaign in
Russia. A few days ago he delivered
a speech in which he made the amaz-
ing claim that Russia was already
conquered, and then, in the same
breath, warned the Germans that
they were facing very bitter winter
war in Russia!
1t would almost seem as though
inconsistency is now to be considered
the jewel that consistency used to be.
The Mighty Adolf outlined exult-
ingly the tremendous losses he had
inflicted on Russia. But-and that

had no other access to news would

By GEORG STRANDVOLD

Much attention has centered around
last weeks conference in Moscow be-
tween representatives of the Rus
sian, the British and the American
governments, for here it was decided
that the United States and Great
Britain are to support Russia by
shipping all war supplies needed, in
return for which Russia is to ex-
port certain raw materials to the
two other countries.
The question of how to get
the supplies to Russia was ex-
plored, and, perhaps, some secret
decision reached. But it is diff
cult to see on the basis of what
is actually known how 1t will be
possible to effect delivery across
either continental Europe or
across the Pacific and all of Asia.
Another question is: Can such
deliveries be made sufficient?
AS an outgrowth of the Moscow
conference persons in the United
States began to worry about the ap-
parent lack of religious freedom in
Russia, and the President felt called
on to quote Article 124 of the Soviet
constitution which does guarantee
such freedom. 1t has always been
doubted that that article is being
enforced.
After oil, that's Russia's affair.
In this country there would be
plenty of resentment should some
Russian officials begin to inquire
into the degree of enforcement
accorded, for instance, the U. S.
constitutions fourteenth and fif-
teenth Amendments. Perhaps it
is most fair to let each country
look after its own constitution.
There is as yet no way of predict
ing the outcome of Russia's war of
defense against Germany.

Change Licenses
Ne,U Years Eue

In answer to an inquiry made re-
Gently of Mike Holm, secretary of
state, by Mayor A. Gravesen of Askov,
regarding the use of the 1912 auto
license plates, the following reply
was received:
"Mr. Anton Gravesen,
Askov, Minnesota.
Dear Sir:
Replying to your note, would say the
legal department says the new plates
should not be used until January /,
but whether or not owners will do
what the legal department rules is
something altogether different.
Yours very truly,
Mike Holm,
Secretary of State"
While the new plates must be pur-
chased by November Is to avoid pen
atty they should not be used until
January l, according to the legal de-
partment's ruling. Old plates must
not be used after midnight, Decem-
ber 81.
The new ruling, though it may ap-
pear odd, is expected to greatly
simplify a police check-up of any
license appearing on the highways as
all records will be in the hands of the
secretary of states office before the
plates are changed.
However, unless some other pro-
visions are made previously, Mime
sofa motorists must put on the new
plates at midnight New Years eve
in order to comply with the law.

to a medical man. There is another
important thing about being able to
obtain commercially manufactured
pure dextrose: it can be combined
with water and injected directly into
the blood stream. This is not true of
the other sugars nor, of course, of the
starches from which our bodies make
dextrose But if you have to act in a
hurry. it might spell the difference be-
tween life and DEATH
For all practical purposes, then,
commercial dextrose is the same as the
dextrose found in the blood stream.
Ordinarily. we get our daily supply
of dextrose by the normal process of
eating and digesting three meals a
day. And that is good way to get it.
Our livers are very efficient little fac
tories and storehouses combined.
What they do. with the sugars and
starches we feed them, is sensible and
practical. They transform these nutri-
ents into a storable form of dextrose
which the scientists call glycogen;
then as it is needed they convert this
stored glycogen into dextrose and dis
tribute it to the blood stream when
our blood sugar" is low. They obey
the law of supply and demand.
Down through the ages, and long
before the word ''dextrose" had been
invented, physicians knew that many
naturally sweet foodstuffs were a
quick nergy-source. Hippocrates. the
Father of Medicine, recommended
honey and fruit syrups for GONZALES
cents, and we know also that the
Greeks gave fig syrup to their ath-
letes. Actually, they were doing out

physicians, surgeons, chemists, biolo-
gists and food manufacturers have at
their disposal all the dextrose they
need, made from corn, the nations
biggest crop. So today's baby doctors
often use dextrose to grid the new
born infant in his fight for life - it
will furnish him energy which he can
utilize readily. For the same reason.
it is a matter of course in the feeding
of babies throughout their first year.
1t is often used to help pneumonia
sufferer replenish his rapidly exhaust
ed energy. or to help build up a bal
ance of energy in the long physical
struggle against tuberculosis 1t pro-
vides an extra reservoir of energy for
the person about to undergo an opera
ton. These are but few of the many
medical uses to which dextrose is put.
At the same time the manufactur-
ers of processed foods are increasingly
interested in the use of dextrose as a
sweetener. 1t is one of number of
sugars: levulose, maltose, lactose and
sucrose, to name few of the Others.
Sucrose is, of course, the old familiar
which we call granulated or cane
sugar. Usually dextrose is combined
with cane sugar in commercial canned
fruits, jams, jellies or fruit juices.
Dextrose is slightly less sweet to the
taste than cane sugar is, and for some
products this is an advantage. Dex-
trose. being naturally present in raw
fruits. anyhow, is also preferred by
food manufacturers when it is impor-
tant merely to add more sweetness
without changing the favor of the
fruit. Many bakers and candy manu-
facturers have also experimental with
dextrose successfully, and believe that
they have thereby improved the tex
ture, flavor and digestibility of their
product.
What further medical, scientific,
or commercial use may be made of
dextrose with the passing years, it
would be impossible to predict. Mean
while, with the starches furnished us
in our lusty potato, wheat and cereal
crops, and with the sugars (often in
the form of dextrose itself available
in our lavish consumption of fresh
fruit, canned fruit juices, canned and
preserved fruits, and ice-cream and
sweets, we, the people of the United
States, have diet high in natures
vital sugar, dextrose.

dextrose, for these fruits contain it
rather lavishly. But why these sweet
fruits acted in the way they did, the
pioneers of medicine did not know.
1t was not until late in the Nine
teenth Century that now famous
scientist, Emil Fischer - known as
the Father of Carbohydrate Chemis-
try gave scientific explanation
of how, from various foods. our bodies
manufacture and use dextrose.
Mon-Mods Dexfrose
HE production of dextrose COM
mercially. however, was something
else again. Long and laborious was the
job of learning how to derive it in
quantity in the pure state. Scientists
knew well enough where to find it in
the plant world. But separating it
from all the other constituents proved
extremely difficult. Today. however.

IN" States we have been running
4 = across the word dextrose -
in the news and in the descriptive
labels of many processed foods and
CONNECTIONS. For a decade or so dex-
trose has been a familiar ingredient
in infant feeding. Commercially it is
often used as a sweetener by bakers,
confectioners, ice-cream producers,
soft-drink bottlers, Gamers of fruits
and vegetables and of citrus fruits, and
manufacturers of jams and jellies.
Athletes. engaged in many types of
sports and games, have fortified them
selves with it for their extreme physi-
cal exertion. Physicians and surgeons
employ it to supply their patients with
energy in the fight against a variety
of human ills and bodily crises.
All in all, the word dextrose is being
banded about great deal these days.
Yet few of us know what dextrose
really is, nor why it is useful in the
feeding of our babies, the energizing
of men at times of abnormal physical
stress. the processing of certain foods.
and the treatment of the sick. The
facts are interesting.
Essenfiof in Blood Sfrsum
UP TO now in this article, we have
been discussing the commercial pro-
duct known as dextrose "a pure
white sugar derived in this country
from corn and only perfected after
years of experiment. Actually. dex-
trose exists everywhere in the plant
and animal world. 1t is present in the
juices of many plants and the saps Of
trees, and is especially plentiful in
honey, grapes, fruits and most vege-
tables. 1t is not only present but abso-
lutely necessary in the blood stream
of the human body. Without it we
could not lift hand nor move an
eyelid. for it is only when the oxygen
we breathe burns the dextrose in our
blood, that we get the energy to do
.hese things. Otherwise we would be
completely inert.
without dextrose life is impossi-
ble." prominent physician and
authority on dextrose said recently.
"Your brain, if deprived of it, could
not live more than eight minutes. 1t
is the ultimate sugar. Into it all other
sugars and all the starches you eat in
bread or potatoes or other foods must
be transformed in your body; and it is
needed by every tissue. And dextrose
is the only sugar that is absorbed into
the blood stream without first being
digested. That makes it quick-acting.
