Simple Breathing Rules
For Amateur Swimmers
BY DONNA GRACE

SWIMMING SEASON is here
again and this year more than
ever before, is clasSed as one
Of the very finest Of sports.
Great stress is laid on the
health benefits derived from this
paStime. This week is desig-
mated as the Swim for Health
Week" and we hope every one
who can walk w4ll know how 10
swim.
When we think OF exercise
for health, we may be sure that
IN swimming, every part OF the
body comes in for its portion
Of the work. Muscles become
normalized and supple. over
weights are reduced and those
who need 10 add weight. find
this the ideal way.
Besides the beautiful develop
ment OF supple and perfectly
rounded contours. the move
mentS stimulate the body func-
lions. keeps the skin active and
eliminates body wastes.
Calls for Alettnen
Rhythmic timing calls for
mental alertnesS. Good swim
mers are generally methodical
and cheerful. II would he diff
cult 10 imagine how any one
could possibly be morose or I'm
friendly while engaged In this
grand sport.
Physical defects are often
overcome by swimming. self
conscious persons are encour-
aged 10 forget their own little
problems and take their place
among groups as they should.
While every one may have
fun at the beach. good swim-
mers are the ones who expert
ence the real thrill. Gliding
smoothly through deep water
without a thought of fear is
heavenly. This thrill Is hardly
ever felt by those who do not
learn the correct methods.
The old idea OF tossing a
youngSter into deep water and
expecting him 10 get himself
safely 70 shore. il not the best
way. This heroic plan may
frighteu one into loathing the
very sight OF water. The cor
rect way is always the easy way.
Need Practice
With modern methods. any
one should learn 10 swim in a
few lessons, after that, prsc-
tee is al one should require 10
be a fine swimmer.
We must first overcome fear,
learning in pool offers an easy
way 10 do this. One must be
sure that getting the head and
face in the water will do no
harm.
For the first Introduction. one
will stand with back 10 the side

When the air Is almost out

Of the water and inhale again.
Do this a number Of times. The

while exhaling. The air should
be blowing out through the
mouth and nose at the same
time.

WASHINGTON, April ? GNS
- Maj. Gen. Hershey, selective
service director, said today that
draft headquarters is considering
removal of restrictions on drafting
fathers although "the ink has not
been purchased TO write the order.
"The time for reclaSsifying
fathers Is approaching more rap

Hershey added, reiterating his
belief that draft boards would
have 10 dip into the pool OF
married men with pre-Pearl
Harbor dependents about July /.
Gen. Hershey said that. TO his
knowledge, no such fathers have
been indicted since last July 13,
when they were ordered deferred.
He challenged any one 10 present
proof 10 the contrary, in writing.
Hershey pointed out that such
cases already brought TO his at
tention had been found justiiable,
usually on the grounds that the
husband was not supporting his
family or was not living with them.
Furthermore, he noticed that

Bricker Will Press
For Congress Action
On Food Program
Will Ask Legislature to
Call for Adoption Of
Governors Proposals
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 90
Gov. John w. Broker said today
he would recommend that the Ohio
legislature memorabilia Congress
for immediate action on resolutions
adopted by II Midwestern Cover
rors outlining steps they believed
the Federal Government should
take if agriculture is to meet record
food production demands in 1943.
Gov. Bricker. potential Repub-
lican presidential candidate, said in
a formal statement the conference
at Des Moines last Monday simply
surveyed the farm labor and ma
chinery situation and left to the
attending Governors how best to
put the conclusions in effect back
home.
THE situation must be called to
the formal attention OF the only
agencies which can grant the relief
prayed for-Congress, the President
and the bureaus operating under
his control" the Governor said.
Government Alone Can Act.
THE recommendation adopted
with such unanimity at Des Moines. "
Gov. Bricker added. call for cor
receive measures which can be taken
only by the Federal Government.
mo State and no Governor has
the power to overrule the directives
issued by the War Production Board,
the War Manpower Commission, Sc
lective service and other competing
Federal agencies which have caused
this trouble. Neither do they have
the power. to force these Federal
agencies to reverse their restrictive
policies.
About all they can do is to join
the farmer in vigorous protest in
the hope of arousing public opinion
to the point where Congress, the
President and the bureaucrats will
be forced to provide the farmer
with the essential elements of pro-
duction."
The Ohio executive said the
farmer cannot produce more and
more. if given less and less" with
which to work, and added:
Unless there is sharp revision
of Federal policies, somebody is
going to be hungry but it won't be
the farmer. The farmer is an in
telligent businessman. He wants to
produce enough for everybody and
he knows how, but he can't do it
with his hands tied.
Solution Not Simple.
Solution of the manpower prob
lem is not simply question of find
ing more workers and more machln-
cry. 1t entails the maintenance of
existing machinery, education and
training of new workers, public
health, public welfare, nutrition,
housing, market structures, wage
differentials between industry and
agriculture, selective service and
enlistments and maintenance in
proper balance of all these factors.
There is a trend from Washing
ton to help the farmer, but the
danger lies in the fact that 1t is
coming too late and in the POSSIBLE
ity that this help will stop short Of
the need.
1T is for these reasons that the
voice of the Ohio Legislature should
be heard in the halls of Congress. "
