The W ashington
Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON
tna,or Robert Q. Allen on active dutyJ

WASHINGTON 1T was Secretary
Of war Stimson personally who re-
yersed his Army subordinates and
ruled that major league baseball
teams could not visit the war fronts
to entertain the troops.
stimson felt that the troops would
resent the sight Of apparently
healthy ball stars not in service uni
form; would not realize that each
ball player of military age had been
exempted from the draft because
of some physical infirmity which
does not handicap him as base
ball star but apparently prevents
him from meeting the requirements
of the Army--such as half an ear
gone, toe off, or finger missing.
This was the second veto of such
a project by Stimson, the other
having been his refusal to let Joe
Louis box with Billy Conn for the
entertainment of troops. Stimson
also thought this would have bad
morale effect.
In both cases. Stimson overruled
his press chief, Maj. Gen. Alexander
Surles, who was irked. Subsequent
ly Surles came to one OF Stimson's
advisers, said.
i've given lot of thought to
the protection of Secretary Stim-
son and Undersecretary Patterson

reply.

PROHIBITION MOVE

What looks like an ingenious
schem e to increase prohibition
areas, while the soldier vote is ham
strung, has been unearthed in New
York by Democratic leader Bill
Morgan.
Morgan, remembering how prohi-
bition was put across during the
last war when soldiers could not
vote, tested a Women's Christian
Temperance Union move in the
New York courts. The WCT'U had
inserted local option law on the
ballot in Cortland County, N. Y.
Significantly. the proposal was in
serted on Sept. n, despite the fact
that ballots were mailed to the SOL
diers on Sept. 20.
In other words. the troops would
not get the ballot with the local
option law written on it, therefore
would be unable to vote on it.
Democratic leader Morgan APP
pealed the matter before Supreme
Court Judge Coons in Cortland
County as unconstitutional Morgan
commended that If any prohibition
measure is to be on the ballot here
at home, it must also befon the bal
lot voted on by sailors and soldiers.
Judge Coon ruled the WCTU- spon-
sored move unconstitutional, since
it deprives the soldiers of their
right to vote.

100000 Employees
OF Government Now IT,
Being Investigated
BY JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. = There
are more Congressional committees
investigating government manpower
with an eye to whacking the day
lights out of it than have ever
seen concerned with single sub
ject before.
Rep. Lyndon Johnson's sub-com-
mittee of the House Naval Affairs
Committee has even taken up offices
in the Navy Department building
better to study the situation at first
hand,
The House Military Affairs Com
mittee has committee at work
ON the same thing in the War De-
partment.
The Byrd committee, concerned
with governmental expenditures, is
devoting much of its time to gov
eminent employment
The Ramspeck committee on civil
service in the House is up to its
ears in the problem.
That's just starter, and these
activities are certainly not going
to be curtailed by what the con-
gressmen heard from the home
folks Apparently the expansion OF
civilian government employment to
now more than 100000 has lot
of voters hopping mad. Investiga-
tons are a healthy thing in most
cases. They keep the departments
and agencies on their toes. Already
it has led to lot of housekeeping
here, and there will be more. John
sons committee, even before it has
brought in its report, has caused
the Navy to do lot Of shifting OF
manpower.
A little prodding around turns up
"a lot of stories about how agency
heads are humping to increase the
efficiency of their bureaus before
they come in with l944-45 budget
requests
A deputy administrator in OPA,
a former Philadelphia banker. dis
covered that OPA was using 30 pay
roll department employees. His
bank, with one-third of OPA's per-
sonnet, employed only three. He

Dieting for reduction OF weight Is

Most persons think 1t would be

The normal woman can reduce
no matter what she eats if she will
keep her calorie count down to a

To- Bring
Beauty
By Patricia Lindsay

Along with all other women. I
dislike the job of counting my
points when I go a-marketing. But
everytime I hand them over I
realize what boon to beauty this
new food rationing system is! How?
Why 1t forces the American woman to
eat the foods which build beauty
fresh vegetables, fruits, dairy foods.
1t prevents her from eating fried
foods, too rich sauces, too much
meat. I'll bet she will become so
fond OF her new menus that come
the end of the war she will prefer
to eat the foods she is now forced
to buy!
For instance, here are some food
facts, well worth bearing in mind
as you look over the stands of fruits
and vegetables and consider how
you will spend your meat points:
Best foods for dry skin are these:
Fresh milk, eggs, calf's liver, yeast,
lima beans, kidney beans, peas,
string beans, wild rice, whole wheat
and rye and all young fresh fruits
and vegetables.
II your skin is oily fats and pas
tries and other starches must be
dispensed with entirely. You should
eat plenty of fresh fruits and vege-
tables and as many of them as Is
possible raw in salads. Cocktails of
their juices should substitute for
rich lunch counter drinks and alco-
hol cocktails or coffee.
II your skin is sallow your system
needs iron and the best way to get
it is to eat it in food. Iron-rich
foods are dried apricots, prunes,
ralsins, spinach, parsley, watercress,
escarole, beets, string beans, turnips,
dried beans, celery, tomatoes, oat-
meal.
If your hair is ailing feed it
through your bloodstream by eating
the mineral foods, sea greens, fish,
cod liver oil, pineapple, the skins of
fruits and vegetables (Which con-
tain minerals vital to hair health
whole grains, garlic, artichokes,
Strawberries, horseradish, cucum-
bers, figs, cabbage, lettuce, spinach,
carrots, apples.
If your teeth are spelling check
the decay by getting calcium into
your menus. Eat plentifully of
kohlrabi, Strawberries, asparagus,
onions, lemons, turnips, radishes,
chard, red cabbage, caulif1ower, to-
matoes, pumpkin, sorrel, carrots,
spinach, lettuce, watercress. And if
your doctor approves take a CAL
clum tablet daily, for there are
only three or four really good CAL
clum foods. You must eat ouan-
titles of those mentioned above to
get 10 grains of calcium each day
the amount your bones and teeth re-
qulre for normal health.
If your eyes are failing these
foods should be 'musts" on YOUR
daily menus: Sea foods, blue cheese
steel-cut oatmeal, cod liver oil
Watercress, beets. garlic, cabbage
spinach and egg yolks.
