Better control Of the flow OF ma

tor. declared Saturday.
Heading a delegation Of Wash

The plan, effective April I, will

Tea Hurt Injection

"YOu see the chemicals In the
tea nullified the injection and
halted the healing processes
which had been set I'm motion"
A trace of a limp attests 10
young Koch's onetime suffering
from poliomyelitis, has father said.
The cup of tea incident holsters
one of the principal points Of the
Koch defense-that his products
are only efficaciouS when properly
administered and accompanied by
proper diet and care.
Richard Steel, defense attorney,
foreShadowed this in his opening
statement, when he said:
I'VE will show you Doctor
Koch only recommended these
remedies N the patient was able
and willing to conform 10 the
treatment he prescrlbes."
When the case resumes Tues
day, DIR. Percy +. Ryberg, Cana
dian Air Force physician, will take
tho stand. lie is expected 10 tes-
tify 10 high dilution medicines.

Agrees With Unions

Similarly, he blamed irregular
material flow for most of the
time lost in war production last
year.
Strikes, he said. accounted for
less than one-tenth of / per cent.
Although making no promises,
he agreed with union spokesman
that labor should have more rep
resentation at the top of WPB.
d. j. Hutchins, regional WPB
chief, cast an ominous note into
the conference, estimating the 29
major war plants in the Detroit
area would need 10000 more
workers than are now available
when the projected production
peak is reached next fall.

vailed in Detroit than in many

Shortage VieDs

To overcome the anticipated la
Dor shortage, he suggested that al
Detroit laborers devote 10 pei
cent more time to the war effort
than at present.
Lund said he had no specia
labor perplexitieS to correct
locally.
This Is the fifth OF a dozen
such meetings over the coun-
try" he said. I'VE just want
