RIGHT FOOD FOR
GOOD HEALTH
Your Health and Vitality De-
pends on Proper Food
and Right Amount
BY CHARLOTTE SPENCER

Getting value received in buying
bread is easy if the buyer follows
the four golden rules of all food
purchasing. Read the labels. Com
pare cost. Judge for quality. Rec
ognize nutritive value.
Reading the labels on bread VIII
tell you whether that bread Is
whole grain, Enriched, or ordinary
white bread. The label will also
tell you whether milk and butter
have been used. The weight of
each loaf will be printed on the
label.
Quality of bread is judged by
freshness, flavor, color and general
appearance. Freshness is a matter
of taste and many people prefer
the flavor of day old bread to that
of bread fresh from the oven. Most
of all quality in bread means get
ting bread your family will like.
Cost of breads should be COM
pared by weight. A loaf of bread
usually weighs from one to two
pounds. 1t is certainly unfair to
compare the cost of a pound loaf
with that of loaf weighing one
pound four ounces.
Housewives shopping for health
should give Al priority ratings to
whole wheat, cracked wheat, oat-
meal, rye and other whole grain
breads. Suuch breaks are valuable
because they contain vitamin B and
iron.
Enriched bread gives better
health value than ordinary white
bread, but it rates a little lower
than the whole grain breads. Bread
is Enriched according to govern
ment recommendations when it
contains standard amounts of B
factors and iron and the label on
such bread should state Enriched
with vitamin B1 Cor thiamin), nico-
tinic acid, and iron. There are
many parts of the vitamin B COM
plex and only two parts are usually
added to Enriched flour and bread.
Cooks who bake their own bread
and biscuits can get Enriched flour
since much of the white flour on
grocers' shelves has been so treat
ed.
Government authorities, bakers
and millers have been little disap-
pointed in the public reaction to
Enriched bread and flour. Appar-
emily most housewives still do not
Aask for Enriched flour and bread in
preference to ordinary white.
The use of milk, particularly dry
milk solids, is common to bakers
and can add considerably to the nu-
tritive value of the bread, as well
as to it's flavor, appearance and
keeping quality. Raisins, prunes,
nuts, molasses and peanut butter
give variety to different kinds of
bread.
Bread is still the staff of life to
many families, particularly to those
of moderate income. Careful pur-
chasing of bread can result in saw
ing of money and a better diet.

New War Shelf
Is Important 10
us. Housewives
For Emergencies or I'm
expected Guests It's
Best To Be Prepared

With our country at war, glassed
foods take an important place on
the home front. American house
wives are finding glassed fruits,
vegetables and other choice edibles
a valuable aid in wartime menu
planning.
The kitchen emergency shelf
has always been the housewives
security against unexpected guests
and hurry-up meals. Today it be-
comes also her security against the
time when she may have to prepare
light refreshment without cooking,
and possibly in poor light, should
gas and electricity be turned off
during an air raid alarm.
Check Emergency Shelf
The alert homemaker will check
to see that her emergency shelf in
cludes foodstuffs which may be
served without cooking. Such items
are dried beef, figs and dates;
boullion cubes and instant coffee
which may be prepared with the
addition of hot water; crackers and
evaporated milk. Glassed fruits or
vegetables in easy-to-open duraglas
jars are especially appropriate for
emergency means. The contents are
easily identified when the light is
dim, the lids pry up with no effort
and the wide-mouthed jar may be
used for serving.
Bottled juices and beverages are
useful on the emergency shelf, as
well as few chocolate bars. Also
suggested are filled salt and pepper
shakers, fat candle in dish and
safety matches. If there is a baby
in the family, few jars of glassed
baby food should also be included.
Adapting the emergency shelf to
wartime needs does not mean
boarding food, it is pointed out.
The housewife will find many
necessary items already on hand,
and none of them need be pur-
chased in large quantity. A regular
check-up of her emergency supply
shelf will fit into her daily shop
ping routine.
Because they are packed under
high vacuum, glassed foods may
be stored indefinitely on the emer-
gency shelf. Yet they play an equal
ly important part in everyday
meals.

Classed Fruit Cocktail
Has Three-fold Use

Glassed fruit cocktail, one of
twenty-five varieties of fruits and
vegetables now packed in glass by
the country's leading food-packing
company, serves three uses on the
family table. 1t can be used as the
name implies, as an appetizer be-
fore dinner, as delicious nourish-
ing dessert, or for a fruit salad.
Leftovers may be re-sealed, as the

orally apply. The japanese are
not waging a war for Shin
toism." The Japanese govern
ment has never tried to organize
Japanese-Americans into groups
to influence Immediately the do
mestic and foreign policies Of the
United States Government; nor
does 1t count on being able to
engineer through them continual
assaults on the American mind.
In the field Of political warfare
within the United States, the
Japanese are quite helpless.
But the war in the West is
different. 1t began with coun-
terrevolutions in Europe. as civil
war, inside italy and Germany.
In these civil wars, the Fascist
or Nazi parties attacked demo-
cratic institutions and personali-
ties, and eliminated them from
Italian or German life. Since ex-
pansion, or "Lebensraum," is an
integral necessity OF Fascism,
war was always implicit in its
counterrevolution. The elimin-
ination Of democratic institutions
and the exiling of democratic
personalities had, therefore, a
double purpose: To effect the in
ternal counterrevolution and to
remove the friends of other de-
mocracies abroad.
In Germany and Italy, another
factor was introduced. All non
Aryans" were deprived of their
rights Of citizenship and work,
and hundreds of thousands Of
them driven into exile.
Exiles Sought Out Democracies.
Many Of these voluntary and
enforced exiles eventually came
to the United States. They are
those people who lost the first
great battles of this war and went
to democratic countries. Even
tually the successful internal
counterrevolutions turned out
ward into aggressive interna-
tional wars.
But these international wars
continued to be counterrevolu-
tions as well. Fascism and
Naziisn were welded together
into an international political
movement, which was organized
inside all countries, both through
German and italian nationals
and through men and women Of
German and italian race. The
Nazis introduced first the concept
that all men and women Of
German race (not nationality
merely were claimed by the
Third Reich.
But to them were added SYM
pathizers, those attracted by the
theology. so that 1t was possible
to give a plan to all the counter
revolutionary movements inside
the western countries, give them
a common program. guide their
activities and build them into
subversive forces. Thus, the

avoid unnecessary loss Of time in
getting back and forth.
Besides being our ablest naval
officer. Admiral King has a we'll
established reputation for being
the toughest man in the Navy.
Neither personal nor political
considerations influence him in
selection Of fighting personnel.
The Nays commander In chief,

the civilian world. He Is not re-
quired to appear before the vari-
GUS committees Of Congress, this

His Opinion Virtually Law.
Although nominally the Secre-
tary Of the Navy and chief Of
naval operations are the final
authorities in dealing with ship
building. types Of vessels to be
constructed and many such things.
Admiral Kings opinion in these
matters Is practically law.
When Admiral King was ap'

The Great Game of Politics
FIynn's Plan to Link Presidents Address
With Dinners to Aid Democrats AssoiIed

and Immediately. From 1921 to 1924,
when the Democratic party had no
real sources Of revenue. Cordell Hull,
now Secretary Of State and then
national chairman, conducted the
party affairs from two rooms IN
an old ONCE building instead Of
occupying the whole floor Of an ex-
pensive hotel. His stan consisted
Of one stenographer and . pub
licity man who got SIS . week in
stead Of $4,000 . year.
Absurd Suggestion.
The fact is that in recent years
these committees have become
swollen al out Of proportion both
as to size and cost. Now they are
both broke, which Is not . bad thing
at all. No one seriously wants to
do away with the congressional
elections next fall. In the first
place, 1t cannot be done; In the
second place, it should not be done.
However, Mr.. F1ynn's contention
that this will be the most important
congressional election in our history
Is nonsense.
There will be no issue Of foreign
policy in the campaign. Every seri-
Gus candidate. Republican As well
as Democrat, will be pledged to up
hold the hands Of the President and
support every measure designed to
push the war to . successful con-
clusion. No one who checked short
on these things would stand-or
should stand-any chance Of elec-
ton.
Everybody knows that, and the
suggestion that these elections are
Of paramount Importance is absurd.
The issues In the districts will be
personal and local. Now that the
country Is actually at war, Mr..
Roosevelt Is as certain to get sup
port for all war measures from the
Republicans As he Is from the DEM
ocrats. Mr.. Flynn accuses the Re-
publican leaders Of being partisan,
and perhaps they are. But Mr..
Flynn is pursuing his own partisan
purposes behind an exceedingly
transparent screen Of patriotism.
Cause for Concern.
It Is not q pretty exhibition. There
Is no President to choose next fall
and not the slightest reason either
side should have . large stan, ex-
pensive headquarters and big cam
paign fund. In fact, the country
might be . lot better OF II both
national committees dried up and
did not function at all for the next
two years. This is not time for the
professional politicians to protrude
themselves and their unsavory
money troubles. That they cannot
pay their debts may be tough on
the people to whom they owe money,
but what has the country to do
with that7 The really bad feature
Is that these men could 70 easily get
into the White House with their
petty pleas and plans for the party
treasury. That Is enough to cause
real concern.

cause Of tho appearance Of open

purpose. According to printed re-
ports, Mr.. Flynn, Treasurer Richard
J. Reynolds and other committee
officials went to the White House
last week and conferred with the
President on this business Of raising
money. Mr.. Roosevelt. it was re-
ported. discussed the question In de-
tail with them and made several
suggestions. 1t Is not known wheth-
ed he specifically approved this
Flynn plan or not, but 1t Is . bad
plan and ought to be discouraged
Several thoughts suggest themselves
In this connection.
Disturbing Situation.
One, OF course, Is that the Presi-
dent Of the United States ought
not to be dealing with the paltry
problem Of raising money for q
party committee while as leader
Of the Nation he is directing the
greatest war In history. Another
Is that no partisan tinge should be
attached to the patriotic address
he plans for February a.. Another
Is that this is a splendid time for
professional politicians to keep out
Of the White House and away from
the President. Tho mere fact that
they have access to him at . mo-
ment such as this is disturbing It
Is hard to imagine anything that
could detract more from the presi-

which lies ahead.
Those who work with Admiral
King admire the GOODNESS with
which he operates under most
dificult circumstances and the
excellent use he makes Of the
relatively insufficient United
States naval forces. Those forces
face problems which no previous
theoretical war plans took into
account.
The unanimous opinion Of
those who serve under him Is
that II anything can be done
Admiral King will do II.

that he could tackle the most Diff

had in the history Of this country,
but he needed . completely free
hand. Now he has It.
Unprecedented Task.
What our strategy Is In this
war remains q secret until the
day that major operations are
undertaken. But never before
has our Navy been confronted
with a more overwhelming task
than today. 1t must fight q
Japanese Navy which is strong
and for the time being superior
and 1t is contributing ships to the
defense Of Britain. 1t provides
the bulk Of convoy vessels for the
merchantmen which are carrying
war materials to the British Isles
and other parts of the empire in
the face Of German submarine
packs. 1t must also keep q vigi-
liant eye on South America, where
the possibility Of an Axis coup
cannot be ignored. and must pa
troll our own long Atlantic Coast
to reduce submarine perils to the
minimum.

simple, but he does not have such
tonnage and 1t will be some time
