Let us continue to enumerate fuf-
ther points about nutrition. of which
the public seems by now fully aware.
3-The notion of balanced meals
This idea is an immediate outcome
of the previous points and consists
merely of the application of such in
formation. People have learned that
for a perfect meal you must have, Tor
example meat, cooked vegetables, raw
salad, bread and butter. tomato juice,
etc. The very phrase, Il balanced meal,
is in common usage already, even
though, as with all other nutritional
lessons. most people may still have an
erroneous notion of its true meaning.
4-Enriched and restored products.
These terms may not be 50 impol-
tant in themselves - especially now
when by government order all bread
is now eni'iched-aS is the general no.
ton which they convey The campaign
of enrichment has taught the people
that not everything is good that tastes
good-that what we thought was
progress in the preparation of food,
such as the refinement Of bread ana
cereals, was not necessarily good for
us but are even harmful. That realiza-
| ton has served to shake peoples be
| liefS concerning the taste, appearance
and prestige of f00d. 1t has also taught
/ them that science may reveal hidden
and more important values or prop
critics This has served to weaken
peoples resistance to change.
5-The revolution in kitchen prac-
iiceS.
Most housewives. regardless of their
actual practices ut the moment, have
heard something about the fact that
science has ravolutioniZed methods OF
preparing and cooking vegetables.
! They know that certain losses i'll nutIi-
tional values result from certain So

GOVERNMENT USING
DANGEROUS POWER
(FrOm The Nation

The L. S. Post Office has decided to
deny Ssccond-claSS mailing privileges to
an obscure organ called the Militant
on the ground that it has attempted
"to embarrass and defeat the govern
ment in its effort to prosecute the
war" From the little we have seen OF
the periodical and from what we know
of leftiSt splinter politicians, we find
it easy to believe that the Militant en-
tcrtdined such gaudy ambitions but
impossible to believe that it had the
fainteSt chance of realizing them.
Censorship of the press is in its
nature so risky that we favor a rigid
adherence to the Holmes doctrine of
taking no action except in cases Of
'clear and present danger" If the
Militant represented anything like the
menace of, say, Social Justice we
would witness its complete suppress
sion without Il qualm. But Il few facts
should make apparent the fatuouSne$'
of the Post Ollicc'S solemn action in
the case Of the Militant.

only about 200 readers receive their
copies through the mail. Presumably
these are subscribers, and as such con

suasion as the Militant's editors. They
don't need the paper to be stirred to
the heretiCal belief that this is an i'm
perialist war; they start out with that
conviction.
In short, the Post Office is using a

viduaIs will no longer learn by second.

Sparing in the use of its censorship

But this is not Il lone example. To my

The shocking part of this story is
that Il government agency, the NLRB,

The Push Is On!
BY RUTH TAYLOR

How eagerly do we scize upon the

Organized Labor intends that we

there must be enough drive of produc

it through and TO 50 arm the gallant
fighting youths that the death toll
great as it Will inevitably be, will not
be vain and idle sacrifice.
We must not stand still until tho
