were chosen. Mrs. Mildred Her
mann, attorney for Kitka, exercised
IS challenges before she found d
Jury which was satisfactory to her,
while Assistant U. S. Attorney Lynn
]. Gemmill, trying the case for
the government, challenged only
four of the jury panel called. Six
of the jurors were disqualified for
cause, principally because they
stated a personal opposition to the
imposing of the death penalty.
The case swung into action this

FOOD POISONING IS
TRACED TO CADMIUM
PLATED UTENSILS

b uusa 81 outbreaks of food
POI icnine the Federal Security
AGENCY has advised manufacturers
aeainst using cadmium, substitute
for aluminium, in plating cooking
utensils and refrigerator containers,
according to a release from the
Office Of Paul v. McNutt received
~ the Territorial Department of
Health today.
An investigation of outbreaks
made by the Food and Drug Adj
ministration and the United States
Public Health Service, found they
wore due = cadmium, which they
al contained a poisonous sub
sar,e ca0sing severe Illness when
ken ia iced even in small am
0ants.
Figo outbreaks, involving at least
30 persons. were traced to the con-
1luDticn of frozen food which had
either been chilled in refrigerators
equipped with cadmium plated ice
trays or served in cadmium plated
containers. Symptoms of the poi
scning include acute gastritis. nau-
sea, cramps, vomiting, diarrhea
and weakness. Illness may occur
within 10 minutes after eating or
drinking the contaminated food
Foods containing acid are particu-
larry apt to be affected.
None of the recently reported
cases resulting from the consum-
ton of cadmium with foods has
been fatal, though. chronic poison
ing. with severe damage TO vital
organs will result from repeated
exposure, the report states.
1t is probable that the plating
industry will cease using cadmium
for food-container purposes, ac-
cording to Mr.. McNutt. AT the
same time the Office of Production
Management has stated it would
not release cadmium for this use

 Coming of the press in May 194i, the first two copies were presented to PsilS XII and President Roose- welt and general distribution began on May 18th. At the time of its first anniversary this year the total sale had reached 100000 and the revised New Testament was not only the best seller of the year but it is one of the best sellers of all time.

 The duties of the Womens Corp will most probably be In the nature of clerkships, aircraft warning service, telephone and telegraph service, etc, thus releasing men for pressing duties that must be done by men. This aid is without ques- ton c service helpful to our cause in the war and as long as their sex Is safeguarded the women's service may be justified and commended. IT IS NOT CONSCRTpTTON
 In the person of many spokesnen the Church has consistently pro- tested against the conscription of women in our country except as a last resort. The Women's Corp however is not conscription but the voluntary enlistment of a small and select group.
 Conscription of women would bring the breakup of stable home life, the dislocation of the home and family. Because of its many ac- companying evils 1t should be re- sorted to only in extreme ernerg- ency and we may thank God that such is not the nature of our emergency. However, should our danger become extreme not only conscription but even the active participation of our women in the country's war machine might be justified. But again we may thank God that such a condition is not even remote possibility.

CATHOLIC SCHOOLS AND TAXES

The auditor of the Board of Education of the City of New York reported last week that it costs the City l4.3 cents an hour to instruct the children in the elementary grades and 17.3 cents an hour to in- struct the children of the high school classes. Applying these rates to the i79772 children in the Catholic elementary schools of the City and to the 29.4i7 boys and girls in the Catholic high schools there, we find that the Catholic schools of the City save the taxpayers of New York $30.796. .S83 each year. To this, of course. we might add the more than $20O, 100000 capital investment and the interest and depreciation which accumulate each year. Quite
