"PAPPY'S" SON-IN-LAW

Senator Pappy ODaniel of Texas has already learned the ropes of get ting things done in Washington; in fact even before he took the oath of office as Senator, Pappy was able to get his prospective son-in-law out of the Naval Reserve.
 O'Daniel's son-in-law, John De- vereaux Wrather, Jr.. age g, had the unique experience of getting into the Naval Reserve on June g, l941, and getting out on July 28, little over a month later. It is not so easy to get into the Naval Reserve these days, but it is harder to get out.
 Young Wrather, however, handled both with considerable ease, was not handicapped by the fact that he had a Pappy who was just elected Sen ator. It is interesting to note, how ever, that since Pappy had not yet actually taken the oath, it was the office of Texas other Senator. hand some long Tom Connally, who ar ranged it with the Navy
 Reason young Wrather wanted te get out was naval rule that mar cannot marry until four months after he has entered the Naval Re- serve. Asked if the Navy had re- faxed its regulations in granting Wrather a discharge, a high navy official replied: y
 Not at all. Influence cuts no ict with us. We just figured that z young man who prefers a honey. moon to a commission isn't of officer caliber Wrather is out of the Navy

U. S. OBSERVERS IN RUSSIA

U. $. OBSERVERS IN RUSSIA
 Three weeks ago Secretary of War Stimson called in Russian Ambas- sador Oumansky and lectured him like a Dutch uncle because Russia would not permit American military attaches to go to the Russian front.
 How can we give Russia real help" asked Stimson, If we do not know at first hand what your mili- tary situation is and what you need moSt?"
 Unpopular Ambassador Oumansky squirmed, got red in the face, ex- plained it was not his fault.
 But since then a large number of U. s. military and naval attaches have been flying secretly to Moscow. How close they are getting to the Russian front is not yet definitely known, but at any rate they are leaving for Russia with the under standing that they will get close.

Naval Reserve Officer Allen, one of the key men in the REC, was yanked away from his important loan duties by the Navy and rushed by plane to Moscow. REC officials groaned, wondered why the Navy was so shorthanded Only excuse given by the Navy was, that Allen spoke Rus sian

Nayy's hogging of strategic wal materials.

Nayy's hogging of strategic war materials.
 Ordinarily the Army and Navy don't air their private differences, but feelings over this issue have be- come so heated that unless the top brasshats step in and order silencers a lot of very interesting information will come to light about Navy inter ference in piority matters which will hang no medals on the Admirals.
 It will be disclosed that due to wholly unnecessary Navy hogging of steel production, tank output for the Army and the, Lend-Lease program has been seriously curtailed.
 Also it will be revealed-unless the Tolan committee is censored that the various Navy construction and supply branches have a deliber- ate policy of secreting statistics on materials they have on hand or on order, so that even OPM, responsible for all defense production, cannot get any accurate data.
 It has never been disclosed, but several months ago Navy Under Sec retary James Forrestal, concerned about complaints of Navy hoarding, attempted to set up a statistical agency within the Navy to get the facts.
 He persuaded Secretary Frank Knox to issue an order creating the agency. But before Forrestal could get the experts he wanted, the brass hats scuttled the whole plan. Since then OPM has been trying to get some data, but without success. It was even unable to get any figure on the amount of steel, aluminium, cop per and other metals that went into the giant new North Carolina.
 Tolan has invited both Army and Navy officials to attend his hearings and if they tapgie, lot of fur should fly. Behind the scenes they have been sputtering at one another for months

Nitamins Have Varied

in Fresh Foods

- We saw yesterday that the sub
stances called vitamins are pres
ent largely in fresh foods, and
that while they do not add TO the
energy value of the diet, they are
in various ways necessary to the
preservation of health. We have
found out these facts about the
vitamins from animal experiments
and the observations Of people
who have lived a long time on in
adequate diets; by inadequate
diets we mean diets largely COM
posed Of preserved foods or proc
essed foods. The peasant who had

about many of these vitamins. At
the present time a summary Of our
knowledge is presented in the fol-
lowing list.
Sources of Vitamins
Vitamin A chiefly is brought
TO US in butter, eggs, and yellow
vegetables such as carrots, corn,
squash, and pumpkin. 1t preserves
the health of the eyes, skin, and
various membranes. Lack Of il
causes night blindness. The Brit
ish air men who combat the Ger
man raiders are kept in the dark
all day and fed Vitamin A so they
will be able to spot the enemy in
the dark.
Vitamin b. is nerve tonic.
Chemically it is thiamin chloride.
Animals deprived Of it have paral-
ysis and lack Of it causes neuritis
and paralysis among men.
Ribofavin is found, like Vitamin
B. in grain, yeast, eggs and most
vegetables. 1t is necessary for the
health of the skin. 1t promotes
growth in young animals. 1t aids
in the consumption Of oxygen by
body cells. Man deprived of it de-
velops peculiar sores of the tongue
and lips.
yitamin C.
Vitamin c, chemically ascorbic
acid, is found in citrus fruits and
strawberries, tomatoes and to .
certain extent in all green vege-
tables. When left out of the diet,
Il causes scurvy in children and
adults, consisting Of hemorrhages
from the gums and elsewhere in
the body.
Nicotine Acid is found in fresh
vegetables and fresh meat. When
omitted from the diet, it causes
pellagra, nutritional disease
which affects the skin and nervous
system.
Vitamin D has very important
source in sunlight. 1t is also found
in ish-liver oils in great abun-
dance. Omission from the diet in
children causes ricketts,.
Vitamin E is the fertility vita
min. In animals it adds TO the
size and health Of litters. 1t 10
found in wheat germ oil and cot
ton-seed oil.
Vitamin X helps coagulate the
blood. Used in the bleeding disease
of newborn infants and in jaun-
diced patients who can be pre-
pared for operation SO that they
do not bleed as ordinary jaundiced
patients do. Vitamin X is present
in the green parts Of plants.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
J.H. ST. have read that the
millers are putting thiamine chlo-
ride in -four to step up its vitamin
content. / also read that baking
destroys thiamine chloride. This
makes little sense. What are the
real facts"
Answer:-Some thiamine chic
-ide is destroyed by baking. Never
more than 1870 of the total
amount, seldom more than $50 and
that in the crust. The question Of
white bread, whole wheat bread
and vitamin REINFORCED bread is 4
complicated one which we will
take up in an article soon. There
are many substances which should
be added to white -four to make it
complete food. The present stu
alton is only makeshift.

a husband should, and you may as
