The most that can be said for Congress is that
il has eliminated SOME waste but not ALL
But if II is true-and II unquestionaby Is true
that the possibilities for economies have only been
scratched and that many other necessary savings

Business Doing Big job

CAREFUL readers of American newspapers have

in national advertising since the start of the war
Many of the biggest industrial organizations in the
country the so-caed heavy durable goods makers,
which do not sell brandname products direct to the public
and hence have been consistent newspaper advertisers

And it is justifiable pride, the record shows.
President Roosevelt has recently given the country
astounding figures about production showing that

Of enemy nations and will eventually and inevitably

In short American big business has been given

But there is another why business and indus

1t is now realized largely due to the that the
past and habtua aloofness of big business from the
public has had bad resuts-bad for the vital pro-
ductve enterprises involved and bad for the American
public
UGH of the very real anagonism that been built
IN1 up the years between big business and the
Stunning public has resulted from the failure of business
itself to acknowledge and assert interest in
people to understand and appreciate that inter-

Consequently, when politicians, bureaucrats and
demagogues, IN government and elsewhere have made
whipping boy Of big business, the people have not
sidered themselves involved
But the war has turned up new sense of values

Better Health
Projection Value Of Liver
In Diet Stressed by Doctors
BY DIR. LOGAN CLENDENING

WITH the increase of our
w growing knowledge of the
protective foods and the de-
ficiency diseases, the value OF
the use of liver in the diet
becomes more and more APP
parent.
The protective foods include
the vitamins, some OF the min
erals and quite few others.
Their peculiar function is that
they are not used exactly as fuel
or AS tissue builders, As most OF
our food is, but they perform A
sort of regulatory function over
the absorption OF the other food
Stuffs and over their utilization
by the tissues.
There is no better illustration
than the now generally familiar
action of liver in improving the
condition of the blood and help
ing anemia.
TT DOES not do this because
Il liver tissue actually enters
into the formation Of blood
cells, but because II contains
some chemical which stimulates
The cells in the hone marrow
where blood is formed, TO regu-
lar activity.
As comparative instance, a
substance called nicotine acid
was found by researches con-
Quoted in 1897 TO be a necessary
part of the diet, although in
very small quantities, in order
TO preserve perfect health.
When it is not present, the
skin becomes unhealthy and
rough and scaly. and there is
some disturbance Of digestion
and sometimes OF the central
nervous system.
Now it was further found, as
in the case Of liver, NICOTINE
acid does not actually enter
into tissue building but, in the
language of the scientists. pro
vides material for the building
of co-enzymeS used in tissue
metaboliSm" or, in plain words,
il provides substances that in
fluence the cells 10 healthy &C
tiVlty.
TT is like boss on a con-
L struction Job: the boss does
not lay any Of the bricks but
he keeps the gang that does lay
the bricks popped up.
In the regular progress Of the
study of any of the VitamlnS.
the first step is TO find that such
and such bodily deficiencies re-
suit from the lack Of the
vitamin. and the second is TO
examine all the foods in the
world 10 find out which ones
contain the vtamin.
And 10 and behold, when the
scientists went looking for nICo-
tinic acid. liver led all the rest
in concentrated amounts of IL.
Liver contains about ID milh-
grams Of NICOTINE acid per gram
OF dried substance, while wheat
germ contains about DOS and
bakers yeast. the nearest COM
petition 10 liver about 0.5 milli-
grams.
A LONG the same lnc. notice
n that vitamln ID is found in

Later II was discovered that

nearly any fish liver contains
vitamin d in high concentration
and certainly animal livers in
general contain it to some de-
gree.
Why does liver contain so
many Of these clements
Because the liver is the great
storehouse OF the body
The substance in liver which
helps blood building is not
formed in the liver but in the
walls of the stomach and is
brought to the liver for storage
and sent out 10 the hone
marrow day by day and hour

We all form vitamin D in

needed.

None Of those known is de.
