oceans, germs, all toss chemicals
around from one to the other as
an inheld baseball team losses the
ball around at practice.
Your body is a little chemical
plant and you catch millions of
atoms a day and later toss them
away to the air, TO the ground, to
the plants.
Yesterday we discussed the nj
trogen cycle. OF course, the oxy-
gen and carbon dioXide cycle is
fairly simple. You need oxygen
and your rubber plant needs car
bon dioXide. You give off carbon
dioxlde and your rubber plant
gives off oxygen. If only those
two chemical elements were con-
cerncd in your chemistry, you and
your rubber plant could live under
a bell jar indefinitely.
The Iodine Cycle
The mineral clements and the
vitamins we need go through a
more complex cycle. Take iodine.
We all require a certain amount
Of iodine TO operate. The thyroid
gland which regulates our basal
nutrition, depends entirely on TO-
dine for its function. When there
is not enough iodine in the food
and the thyroid gland is starved,
a pitiful state Of bodily sluggish
ness ensues.
Nature fortunately has plenty
of iodine. According to Fritz
Kahn, from whose book Man IN
Structure and Function (pub-
lished by A. A. Knopf, New York;
l borrow this description, there
are millions of tons of iodine in the
earth.
Now note the iodine cycle Of
nature.
Iodine is derived from the rocks
Of mountains and swept down by
the mountain streams into the
lowland valleys. The mountain
valleys are deficient in iodine and
in such regions, as in the noun
tain valleys of Switzerland, thy
roid deficiency is very prevalent.
But the soil Of the lowland val
iey- r. full Of isdine, and vege--
tables and fruits grown there will
furnish iodine to you in your food.
Also the milk of cattle grazing
on such soil will have good guam
titles of iodine, as will the eggs
of poultry which feed there.

Rivers empty into the ocean,
so the ocean is a great reservoir
of iodine. Fish flesh is therefore
rich in iodine. The object in ma
ture which probably has the most
iodine is the sponge. Haddock and
cod have more iodine content than
any other fish. Cod-liver oil, be-
sides its vitamin D content, is a
good source of iodine.
Iodine is precipitated from the
atmosphere by rain, dew and fog,
so after a good rain the soil has a
renewed enrichment of iodine.
Coal contains a good deal of
iodine, so the smoke pail over our
cities is another source. Acids at
tract iodine and the humus of rot
ting leaves is very acid, and again
enriches the soil.
The cycle, you see, is really
complex.

PIeu Ends After 8
Days of Testimony

Justice F. Dickinson Let's In Dis
trict Court late yesterday took un-
der advisement the Office of Price
Administrators precedent-making
plea for an injunction against the
Hecht Co. after eight days of lengthy
testimony and argument.
Widesread interest in the de-
cision, on which may depend the
efficacy of OPA's general price regu-
lations, was evidenced by attendance
at the hearing of representatives Of
various retail groups, as we'll as a
large contingent of OPA lawyers.
May Rule in Several Weeks.
Justice Let's told opposing coun-
sci that they could expect de-
cision shortly" but due to the
complicated price regulatory figures
introduced and the questions of law
involved court observers expect the
decision might not be reached for
several weeks.

Federation Unit Urqes

Navy Letter TO Deckmon
Exploins Viewpoint on
Tokine Over New Building

The Housing and Rent Control
Committee of the Federation OF
Citizens Associations today urged
that Government agencies in apart
ment houses be moved into vacated
Office space, which the committee
said would be available by the re-
moval OF agencies to the Pentagon
Building.
The suggestion was contained in
q letter to Representative Randolph,
chairman Of the House District
Committee. by Joseph H. Deckman,
chairman of the federation COM
mittee At the same time, Mr.. Deck
man gave to the press q copy of a
letter from the Navy Bureau of
Yards and Docks to Mr.. Randolph
in regard to the opposition of the
federation to the use of an apart
rent at Eighteenth and G streets
NV. as dormitory for WAVES.
Housing Difficulties Cited.
'"The Navy Department" the bu-
reau letter stated, proposed to
house in this apartment approx
nately 900 girls of the Women's Re
serve. all of whom are immigrant
war workers, some of whom have
already arrived and are finding
great difficulty in securing suitable
housing accommodations in Wash
ington. We wish to emphasize
the fact that these 1873 apartments
had not been occupied by civilians
and we were advised by the owner
that no contracts for leasing had
been made"
In regard to the suggestion that
the CCC camp in Rock Greek Park
be used, the Navy letter said that
except for three buildings being used
by the War Department this camp
has been dismantled." A few of the
officers, 1t was said, may be assigned
to the dormitories being constructed
by the National Housing Authority
In West Potomac Park and Airing
ton Farms. Conversion of man
sions' is under consideration, it was
added.
Civilian View Presented.
In his letter of reply, Mr.. Deck
man said that CCC camps should
not have been dismantled at this
time" Saying that he understood
Potomac Park and Arlington Farm
housing projects had been reduced
from $4,000 persons to 1900, Mr..
Deckman declared:
'"The citizens feel that they should
not be punished for this glaring
lack Of foresighted planning. 1t is
also felt that the military and
naval services, because of their
ability to acquire high priorities
should take care of their own hous-
ing problems. Most emphatically
it Is pointed out that they should
not interfere with the few units of
housing granted to the civilians of
unrecognized Importance.
THE committee wishes to call
your attention to the large amount
of Office space which is vacant or
about to be vacated because Of the
removal Of Government agencies to
the Pentagon Building. Some of the
buildings which are being vacated
could easilyrbe converted to dormi-
tories without disturbing a building
which is already equipped for apart
ment use by civilians"
After listing 1902 apartment house
units now occupied by the Govern
ment, the letter stated that the COM
mittee strongly urges that the Gov
ernment agencies in these apart
ments be moved into the vacated
Office space"

The firm countered this with a
statement that the violations ad-
mitted represented less than l per

departments listed.

control violations by the OPA, was
present at the hearing, as was a

HI Agreed on
Higher Price But
Nothing Happens

A. B. Cobb, owner Of Home Oil
Refining Co. and Cut Bank and Pom
dera producing properties, returned this
week from Washington, D. c., where
he attended hearings Of the Patman
committee and meeting Of state OIL
regulatory bodies, as representative OF
the Oil Conservation Board Of Montana.
The regulatory group agreed that
the most important factor IN the de-
velopment Of more ernde is the lmme-
date granting Of an increase IN the
priee Of crude, and the meeting passed
resolutions backing Harold Iekes, PA"
administrator, in his recommendation.
II was reported to the meeting and
to other sessions attended by Mr.. Cobb
that Prentice Brown, oPA director,
was not opposed TO an increase, neither
was Sterilization Director Byrnes, who
has the final say. Some 40 congress
men gave their support to the proposal.
Yet nothing happened
The Patman committee sought to
drive the mysterious opposition into
the omen. The one voice that was raised
against il was Sumner 7. Pike Of the
OPA, who professed an @Open mind"
until he was forced to display an ad-
verse report he had hurridly written
to Prentice Brown Everyone seemed
amazed that he alone could block all
others,
Members of the association Of regu-
latory bodies voiced violent protest
against disregard Of that body's rec
concentrations. The net result Of all the
meetings has been TO fill waste baskets
Of departmental heads, one representa-
tive said, this being the final resting
place Of resolutions and recommends

lime and find It productive.
Two wells were completed TO the
Madison lime in Frannie field, the first
being Midwest Rosenberg No. SO, which
had an initial of 2425 Dbl. per day,
from 2925 to SOls feet. The second
completion is Kirk Oil-Govt. No. 5-M,
which drill stem test indicated is even
larger than the Rossberg producer. Cas-
ing was eemented Thursday.
Frannie structure is an elongated, a
symmetrical dome cut transversely from
northeast to southwest by two faults
which are about half a mile apart. The
Kirk well is on the upthrOw side of
the north fault and the Rosenberg well
is on the upthrow side Of the south
fault, with both faults between the two
wells This is taken to indicate that
a large area Of Frannie win prove pro
ductive, doubtless extending onto the
Montana side.
A third Tensleep sand producer has
been completed IN Elk Basin field, this
one by Minnelusa Oil Corp, which dis
eONtItu the ASAHAcrP AuAANJhs AVS 4ASA-
derson No. has an initial Of 100
barrels per hour and is the largest Of
the three deep wells. Production comes
from 452s feet.
Construction Of a pipeline from the
Montana boundary to Casper, to con
meet with the big pipeline to Whiting,
Ind, is expected to result from these
two important developments. standOlind
Oil & Gas Co. is said to have first call
on the Elk Basin production but it
probably win not exercise its option
until the pipeline is constructed. As a
result, there is now a prospect Of over
production in Elk Basin, since nearby
refineries cannot handle the flood Of
new oil It has been suggested that
some Of this oil may be shipped to

$50 feet into the Madison lime. Tarrant
ia carrying s-inch hole as long as pos

being used instead of bailer, with
good results.
Tarrant's Anderson No. / well, a

caving during the winter months and
the crew worked for nearly two weeks
to clean out to the old depth. Sun
