 PREPARING FOR MATERNITY
 Canadian scientific investigators (Canad. M. A. J., Jan, 42) demon strated by nutrition experiments on animals that maternal diet defi- cient in certain essentials, especial ly in the first half or two-thirds of the pregnancy period, may be re- sponsbile for a greater tendency to miscarriage, stillbirth, prolonged hard labor, and other complications incidental to uterine inertia. From these studies the Canadian investi- gators devised a basic diet plan which gives some promise of pro- tecting mother and baby from some of these risks.
 Rats bred and reared on a stand ard deficient diet (known as Steen- book and Black Diet 1965) show typical congenital malformations- shortness of mandible Qower jaw bone), Shortness of redius, ulna, tibia and fbula, fushion or ribs and of sternal ossification centers, and syndactylism (f1ngers or toes fused or webbed. For one thing this diet is low in iodine content. But adding iodine to the diet does not correct the deficiency. Now manganese deficiency has apparently produced congenita1 defect of growth of car tilage, arrested growth of long bones and a peculiar stocky dwarf ism, in experiments on chickens. So manganese was added to the defi- cient diet, but the diet still did not prevent the malformation.
 When liver (dried pig liver) and vitamin E complex were added to the deficient diet, the malforma- tions or development defects did not appear in the young, that is, not if the deficient diet was thus sup plemented in the first half of the pregnancy period. Correcting the maternal nutrition only in the last third of the pregnancy period failed to prevent the malformations or de- velopmental defects.
 For these reasons, as well as the prevention of that too common con- plication, morning nausea and von- iting, advise expectant mothers to take a teaspoonful of a pleasant tasting syrup last thing every night, first thing on waking every morn- ing, from the very beginning and throughout the period of pregnancy "a syrup containing vitabin B. complex, manganese, iron gluconate, to supplement the ordinary refined diet which is nearly always nutri- tionally deficient.
 Right here let me say word to the forgotten man, the expectant father. There are lot of things I'd like to say, brother, but they can't be said plainly here. Just let me offer this tip: You must be on your toes from the very first and beware of the conspiracy to make a stooge, boob and ninnyhammer Of you. You must keep the play in your own hands. To do so of course you must know the rudiments of the baby business. Accordingly the first chapters in the booklet Pre- pairing for Maternity are especial ly for the prospective father. For copy of the booklet send ten cents and a three-cent stamped envelope bearing your address.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 My Friends the Dentists
 I have always felt that you have been praying at the moon when you insisted that dentists should all be physicians.
 (Editor of Dental JournaD
 I have compiled 100 short subjects on Health Dentistry, all in lay lan- guage. Can you use them? You won't have the Dental Profession in your hair after they are published.
 (--, D. D. s.
 Answer-But have never insisted dentists should be physicians. I merely say student should have first the medical training to qualify for the M. D. degree, and then what ever special or technical postgrad- uate training may be necessary t prepare him for the speciality h elects. And, friends, pray do not worry about my relations with the dentists. I'm getting along almost too well with them nowadays. I rather like having a fw dentists in my hair, now and again. And one in my mouth regularly.
 Aluminium Hydr0xidc COflOidal
 Please give your opinion of the new indigestion remedy called alu- minum hydroxide colloidal. Is 1t harmful to take right along?
 (R. M)
 Answer-T nave no idea what you mean by indigestion. Colloidal alu- minum hydroxide is sometimes given in gastric ulcer to buffer the free acid and act as an astringent on the raw surface of ulcer or ul- cers. When 1t seems to give any relief in such cases it may be con- tinued for weeks at time, as need- ed. Send ten cents and stamped envelope bearing your address. for booklet "So You Have Indigestion?"

BIG FIGHT
IN HOUSE
OVER BILL
Measure Providing Equal
Rights TO Natives
Is Subject
BULLETIN-TEe House killed
the Equal Rights Bill by vote
Of 8 TO late this a'terr CON.

The House was snapped out of
its dreamy legislative spring this
afternoon as one of the hottest
battles in years developed over the
passage of a bill which would pro-
vide penalties for refusal Of equal
rights to natives throughout Alaska.
Representative we're arguing the
measure pro and con at press time,
and after an hour Of argument, no
vote had been taken
Those against the bill claim that
it gives the natives nothing more
than what they already are guar
anteed under the Constitution.
Those for it express belief that its
passage and the penalty clause
would reaffirm these rights.
DR.. James Ryan. Territorial Com
missioner Of Education, was ques-
toned on the bill in connection
with added expense for Territorial
schools. The passage of the bill
might mean that native schools
would be abandoned. but there is
no provision for this in the bill.
Rep. Alaska Stewart Linck called
the bill a political football"
Rep. Crystal Snow JENNIE spoke
favorably on it, arguing that it
would provide equal rights now
denied natives in many instances.
Rep. Jesse Lander spoke for it,
arguing that democracy is at the
crossroads today" and referring to
Hitler's practices on such ques-
ton.
Speaker James v. Davis, author
of the bill, informed Rep. Lander
that the House has no control
over Hitler at the present time
William l.. Paul of the Alaska
Native Brotherhood was addressing
the House on the bill at press time,
urging its passage.

the next day wnen Senator H. H.
McCutcheon asked to reconsider it
and the rules were suspended. The
measure then was passed by the
Senate.
House Refused Bill
Received in the House, Speaker
James v. Davis refused to accept
the bill, kicked it back to the SEN
ate. The Senate then sent a request
TO the House asking Davis to APP
point a committee on rules to con-
suit with like committee that had
been selected in the Senate to hash
the matter out. Davis declined to
appoint such a committee and the
House sustained his action.
The Senate received notice of
this at this mornings session and
thereafter did not take any action
on any House bills in the Senate.
When a House matter came up it
was continued at status quo.
President o. D. Cochran re-
marked. If the House refused to
accept one bill. I presume it will
refuse to accept all bills.

No Solution
Said Senator N. r. Walker: 1.-The
message from the House indicates it
has no desire to get together on

the limit. The House has even re-
fused to appoint committee to
discuss it. What the solution is,

When Davis had rejected the re-
quest to appoint a committee yes

cline to appoint a committee to dis

Senator A. P. Walker said: This
Is small matter 1t reflects on
both the House and the Senate. We
should get together and compro-
mise. We are arching out necks,
standing on our pride, allowing our
pride to get between us and duty"
In the meantime, legislative ac-
ton is definitely stalled until either
the House or Senate backs up.
There was no indication at press
time that any compromise was

Urges Overall Shipbuild-

West Coast

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10 - The
House Naval Subcommittee which
investigated the west coast ship
yards working on naval contracts
last December reported that the
American shipbuilding industry was
almost criminally neglected" after
the first world war but that the
industry could produce up to twenty
million tons OF shipping this year
if undue, unnecessary delays were
corrected.
The committee urged overall
shipbuilding supervision be placed
on the Pacific Coast and that field
representatives be given more
authority to straighten out alloca-
ton and priority snarls.
The committee head, Rep. War
rem G.. Magnuson of Washington
reported finding considerable con-
fusion as to the authority and dis
erection allowed Navy supervision IN
the shipbuilding field. particularly
with respect to authority of super
visors to permit substitutions TO-
specified materials, unavailable at
present"
Much discussion was heard To
the effect that a serious bottleneck
had occurred in many yards be-
cause the men were having to wait
too long to get materials out OF
the warehouse, Magnuson said.
The committee said lack Of ex-
perience in management was pri-
