La Guardia Captures
Nomination for Mayor
In Apathetic Primary
Margin Is 81 Over Davies
On COP. Ticket; Opposes
O'Dwyer in November
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 17-Mayor F..
H. La Guardia, seeking third term,
won the Republican mayoralty NOM
ination yesterday by about 80
margin, or 1890 votes, over John
r. Davies, former president of the
National Republican Club, in an
apathetic primary election in which
only about IA per cent of the en-
rolled Republicans voted.
The Mayor, also nominated by the
American Labor Party, without
opposition, will oppose Brooklyn's
district attorney, William O'Dwyer,
uncontested Democratic selection, in
the November election.
The final Republican vote: La
Guardia, 63,246; Davies, 43,426. En-
rolled Republicans entitled to vote
numbered 758,385, indicating yes
terdays voting was confined largely
to active members of the party
organization.
Lost Two BOroughs.
The Mayor carried Manhattan
Brooklyn and Richmond, but lost in
Queens and the Bronx where the
regular Republican organizations
had refused to indorse him.
Mr.. Davies campaign was based
on an anti-war, anti-NeW Deal
theme. The Mayor remained aloof
from the campaign. His hackers
contended that the continuance of
good Government and freedom from
Tammany control were the only
issues.
While light vote was expected,
the margin Of Mr.. La Guardia's vic
tory was something under what his
supporters had hoped for in order to
give him running start for the
November election.
Politicians attributed the light
turnout to the scarcity of contests
and a feeling by many of the Mayors
friends that he would win easily.
In an interview at City Hall, Mr.
La Guardia expressed confidence in
his reelection. minimized the close
ness OF tne primary vote and said
that he feels free now to take up
and lead this fight"
Will Break Silence.
The Mayor explained that not
being an enrolled Republican, he
could not wage an active primary
campaign. but he warned his op-
ponents that, having been victorious,
he will not continue his campaign
of silence"
Mr.. La Guardia, who did not make
a single campaign speech, was sup
ported by Wendell L. Willkie, whom
he opposed in last years presidential
election, and by District Attorney
Thomas E. Dewey, whom Mr.. La
Guardia opposed in the 1888 guber-
material election, which was won by
Gov. Lehman, now serving his fourth
term.

DIARY q :
BEAUTY AUTHORITY
by Helene RUbinsfein

(This week the noted beauty
expert explains how to achieve
striking beauty by use Of in
divldualistic coiffures.)
NEW YORK. For many long
years have advocated individual
ity and I have begged and even
compelled women who came to me
to- express their own type of Ioveli-
ness, to emphasize even their inn
{. perfect features. Many of them
were young aspiring movie and
stage actresses who later became
famous. Today. it is gratifying to
me to see that "un-classic" beauty
is coming more and more into its
own. No longer is America wor-
shipping at the feet of the young,
expressionless pretty-pretty face.
1t is the woman of forty even fif-
with the courage to dare in
her looks and in her clothes, who
holds the center Of attraction.
Last week / had an opportunity
again to prove my theory that un-
classic beauty is far more striking
than stereotyped prettiness. There
is lesson for every woman in this
experience.
Nine of the most famous por-
traits of women were collected in
New York for a charity exhibit to
be called "Woman's Growing
Glory. and was approached by
the committee of society women
sponsoring the exhibit to interpret
the historic coiffures of the por-
traits in modern adaptations. Nine
OF the socialites offered themselves
as subjects, and as looked at
them, all of them with their hair
arranged prettily, without distinc-
ton. around their faces, accepted
at once.
The portraits which were to
serve as the inspiration for the
ss.iiiyiag portraits" were BY Rubens,
Rembrandt, Sir Joshua Reynolds,
Largilliere, Bronzino, Sargent, Mo-
digliani. Derain and Artemisia Gem
tileschi. They were portraits of
famous women, famous beauties in
their day. No one of them could
actually be called pretty; indeed,
in each case, the master artist has
emphasized the peculiarities Of the
women the peculiar charm!
/ discussed my ideas with Mr.,
Michel OF my Hair Salon, who ex-
ecuted the coiffures, but not one of
the women knew what would be
done to them until the opening day
OF the exhibit. That morning they
all came to the salon for their "por-
traitn coiffures and makeup, andi
each woman according to, the cpnz
tour Of her face, was assigned to !
represent one of the portraits. The
result was sensational
one of the women whom you.
would never at first glance call
ravishing beauty, turned out SO
striking that her own husband,
who came to the exhibit. did not
recognize her. and friends who
came stayed to stare Until she was
actually embarrassed. Ordinarily,
she wears her hair softly around

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
By CHARLOTTE SPENCER
NutritIOnIst for the State Board of Health
VITAMIN A AND NIGHT
BLINDNESS

Decreased ability to see in the
dark is one Of the first signs of q
lack Of vitamin A. Night driving
particularly in the winter months,
is dangerous enough even for nor
NAL eyes, but it can be made doubly
dangerous if poor food habits have
lowered the ability to see.
The retina of the normal eye
contains visual purple, a sub
stance composed of vitamin A and
protein. This pigment is bleached
by bright light and then recreated.
If there is not enough vitamin A
the visual purple is very slow to
form again. Since vision il dim
light or darkness is dependent
upon this visual purple, the ability
to see at night is impaired and a
condition called night-blindness re-
Suits.
Night-blindness shows itself par
ticularly when coming into the
dark from bright light as when
going into a dimiy lighted theatre
or after passing glaring headlights
at night.
Night-blindness has been known
for a long time. For example, in
Newfoundland where food is scarce
and of poor quality fishermen who
work on the sunlit water all day
are commonly afflicted with night
blindness. Long before yitamin A
was discovered these simple fisher
folk found that if they were blind
at night they could see the next
night if they would eat some cod
or gull liver.
This kind of vitamin A deficiency
appears to be fairly widespread in
this country. A study Of Iowa
school children showed that one
out of four of the farm chciidren
tested and three out of four city
children were suffering from night
blindness and nearly all Of them
recovered normal eyesight when
they were given cod liver oil.
From England and from the con-
tinent come stories of the increase
in nightblindness due to war con-
ditions. British fliers are given an
extra ration of carrots to guard
against accidents due to night
Carrots every day have
helped some large truck operators
in this country to reduce night
accidents.
Although night-blindness is usu-
ally the first warning of not enough
vitamin A, a lack of this vitamin
affects the whole body. The outer
layer of the skin, and the cells
lining the mouth, respiratory tract,
The stomach and the urinary tract
are all affected. These cells be- |
come dry and dead leaving the ,
inder layers unprotected. Fre- |
luent colds and other infections I
nay result from this lack. I
Many foods are rich in vitamin A. :
Butter, milk, cream, eggs, liver,
green and yellow vegetables, cod a
iver and other fish liver oils are r
lmong the very best natural S
ources. Vitamin A is now being (
.dded to many margarines so that .
hose who cannot afford butter can a
.et substitute rich in vitamin A. i
In plant foods vitamin A is asso- b
lated with yellow color although n
his may be hidden behind green or Il
ed. The yellow color of fall leaves r
illustrates how green leaves also
ave yellow color. Animal foods u
ich in vitamin A may be yellow or h
olorless like cod liver oil. e.

For 1912 Paralysis Fight

unbroken spiral until 20 cases were
reported by the United States Pub
lie Health Service during the first
46 weeks of the year.
This constituted an eleven-fold
increase over the corresponding
period of 1910 when the Federal
service reported only two cases of
Infantile paralysis in Delaware.
meanwhile" said Mr.. Morgan,
"the nation as whole has suffer-
ed its third consecutive major at
tack Of the manning disease. Thou
sands Of men, women and children
have been stricken, hundreds have
been left crippled, twisted, help
less.
"This is why we are making our
most fervant appeal for aid this
year. Unlike so many other epi-
demic diseases, infantile paralysis
leaves the greater part of the work
to be done after the epidemic is
over. Only then can we know the
full weight of the task ahead of us
and begin the work of restoring
to strength and usefulness the vic
Tins of this trrible disease"
