 It takes more food to fill the sotmach and satisfy person who suffers from nutritional deficiency B complex than it does to fill the particularly deficiency of vitamin stomach and satisfy person who nutrition is good. Main reason for this is that the stomach (and in- testine) of the person whose intake of vitamin B complex is deficient lacks tone, elasticity, resiliency, hence is fabby, and of course it re- quires a larger amount of food to fill 8 flabby bag or pouch than it does to fill an elastic one.
 Incidentally this common state of nutritional deficiency due to the use of refined four and refined sugar to supply most of the calaries in the diet and the removal of most of the vitamin B complex from the natural sources of these refined carbohydrates by the refining pro- cesses accounts for the excessive desire, amounting in many in- stances to craving, for prodigious quantities of weets, which leads malnourished overweight individ- uals into veritable sprees or gorges from time to time-they are trying to satisfy hidden hunger but unfor- tunately they seldom take the kind of food that might do it-say plain wheat, wheat germ, wheat bran, or just an optimal ration of natural vitamin B complex.

years. Won Cosel was held by
law enforcement authorities in
connection with the removal of
a dead girls body from the City
Cemetery. He carried the body
to the building burned down last
night and preserved the body
with chemicals. This created one
of the most sensational stories
ever originating in Key West.
The scientists plea was that
he became so infatuated with
the girl while she was living
that he could not resist the temp
tation of removing her body
from the grave. After preserv-
ing the body, he proceeded to
sleep with it in his bed, which
he did for several years, accord
ing to testimony at his trial.
At the termination of the
court proceedings here. in which
he was set free, Won Cosel left
the city, locating somewhere Ill
the middle section of the state,
where, it is said, he has remain
ed since that time.

ALGIERS. Mar. 5.-German
and Italian forces launched q
powerful offensive today against
the British First Army in north
ern Tunisia. but headquarters
reported that the enemy has
been beaten back with heavy
losses. AT one point in the Sec
tor. he was forced to retreat be-
Yond the line from which he
started his attack.
II was stated that the Axis
thrust in that sector was to try
to break up the preparations the
British are making for an about
offensive just as soon as roads
and fields have sufficiently dried
out. II was added that the ter
rain at many points is beginning
to harden. and that should there
be no further rains. tanks and
other motorized units viii have
hard surfaces over which to
travel in the next three or four
days.
Meanwhile. the American of
fensive is still continuing and
threatens to cut central Tunisia
in two. thereby isolating Axis
forces in the south from their
bases in Tunis and Bizerie.

said that the French forces un-

under General ciraud are now
fighting side by side in southern

LONDON. Mar. 6.-According 10
report received today from Al
lied headquarters in North Africa.
British submarines have sunk
four Axis ships out of total of
six in convoy that was trying
to reach Tunisia. The ships went
down in the Mediterranean off
Bizerte.
Allied planes last night, taking
off from their North African bases,
raided Naples and Palmyra, in
Sicily, and, besides hitting mill
tary targets, destroyed two Ger
man bombers on the ground.
No confirmation has been made
by the Allies of report that came
out of Rome this morning that
Italian submarines had sunk two
American ships, one in the North
Atlantic and one in the South At
lantic, according to the claim. One
ship was supposed to be of 10000
tons and the other of 1000 tons.
The only comment was that the
report was exaggerated"
