MORE RATIONS
FOR ILL PERSON
APO. Announces That Spec
ial Treatment Will Be
Given Applications
ON 10-WEEK BASIS

To make sure that i'll persons
quickly receive such extra amounts
of rationed foods as they may need,
special treatment will be given ap-
plications for extra rations where
the individual is suffering from an
illness which usually requires ad-
ditional amounts of such foods,
Charles w. Hardesty, State Direc-
tor of the Office of Price Admins
tration, said today. This new pro-
vision will become effective April
6, 1914. Up to the present, anyone
whose health required more ration
ed food than the regular ration
provides, could request his local
board to issue a supplemental ra-
tion. This procedure sometimes re-
suited in delay in issuing supple
mental rations to those who had a
legitimate need for more rationed
food.
For Health Reasons Only
To overcome these difficulties,
local boards from now on will is
sue extra rations for reason of
health only where the individual is
suffering from type of illness
generally accepted as requiring
more rationed food. Application
may, of course, be made for addi-
tional rations for other illnesses but
local boards will, except in cases of
emergency, pass these on to the
OPA District Office for considera-
tion. Illnesses which automatical-
ly make person eligible for more
food were determined for OPA by
the Medical Food Requirements
Subcommittee of the National Re-
search Council. Individual suffer-
ing from these illnesses will receive
additional rations on the basis of
needs for 10-week periods.

STATE ASKS FOR
ANOTHER JUDGE
Bill introduced to Congress
Would Appoint Additional
Federal Judge
WORK HAS GROWN

A bill authorizing the appoint
ment of an additional federal judge
for the District of Delaware has
been introduced in the U. S. Senate
by Delaware's Senator James M.
Tunnel, and referred to the Judici-
ary Committee. The bill provides
for the appointment of an addi-
tional judge of the district court
of the United States for the judi
cial district of the State of Della
ware, who shall possess the same
powers, perform the same duties,
and receive the same compensation
and allowance as the present judge
of the said district.
Work Has Grown
An analysis of the business of
the court prepared by the Admin
istrative Office of the United States
Courts amply support the need for
additional judge power in the dis
trict. The report shows the amount
and character of work in the Dis
trict of Delaware has grown too
large to be expeditiously handled
by one judge. Because Delaware
is the State of Incorporation of so
many large corporations doing bus
mess in all parts of the country, an
unusually large number of import
ant suits are instituted in the dis
trict, including stockholders deriva-
tive actions, patent suits, receiver
ships and recent suits to confirm
holding company dissolutions un-
der the Holding Company Act.
Need is Supported
The need of an additional Judge
ship was supported by the recon-
mendation made by the judicial
Conference for the Third Judicial
District, and approved by the Judi
cial Conference of Senior Circuit
Judges.

STATE BOARD
HEA,VTH AID
Many Health Facilities Avail
able For Negroes Thru
out the State
CONDITIONS IMPROVE

During the thirtieth celebration
of National Negro Health Week,
now going on, the State Board of
Health states that it's health as
sistance for both races includes
well child conferences (baby elm
ics), tuberculosis, and veneral dis
ease clinics, scattered in many
towns all over the state to meet
the needs of the people. There are
Is well child conferences for color
ed children in Delaware where doc
tors and nurses try to help the par
ents keep well children well. The
use of these conferences may be
judged by the fact that 921 chill
dren made 2,587 visits to these
clinics during the past year In
Smyrna the Well Child Conferences
are held the first Tuesday of each
month from 2-4 p. m.
Reduce Infant Deaths
One of the health problems has
been to try to reduce the number
of infant deaths and it is encour-
aging to note that last year there
were only SO deaths of colored in
fants out of 1856 births, as compar-
ed to "a deaths from 847 births in
1912. Five hundred and thirty
four babies under one year of age
were brought to these colored well
child conferences last year where
mothers received advice on feeding
and health habits. Facilities that
aid the health of children are of
special interest in the news this
week since the theme of National
Negro Health Week this year is
"The Health of Our Children in
Home, School, and Community"
TB Ranks 5th in Death Cause
tuberculosis ranks fifth among
causes of death among the Negro
race in Delaware, with SO persons
having died from this cause in
1943. DR.. ConWell Banton, direc-
tor of Edgewood, the State Board
of Health's tuberculosis Sanitor-
ium for Negroes near Marshallton,
states that this high number of
deaths could be lowered if persons
were examined and treated early,
