IAo NhAAAllils
any of those are left, the health
faddiSts who like TO concoct saw
dust meals and monstrous eXer-
cises, and rhythmic conditioning
IN one or another sphere of living
would challenge this but it is
cardinal tenet Of my philosophy.
Certainly among the best things
Of the table are the fruits-apples
and peaches, pears, grapes, le-
mons, oranges. And they are
among the most healthy. Talk
about accessory food factors-the
fruits lead the list of accessory
foods. They are the vitamin bear
ers, the mineral bearers, the
bearers of heaven knows how
many different kinds of refreshers
TO health and happy living that
have not yet been differentiated
by the biological chemists.
Year Round Crops
Il used TO be that they were ex-
clusively the table delicacy of
autumn. So suggests Keats, at any
rate. Now we are likely to get
them the year round. For this we
have to thank modern engineering
methods of refrigeration, food
preservation, transports ton and
the development of fruit farming
in some of our southern states
and neighboring countries where
there are possibilities Of year
round crops.
You cannot make a complete
meal of fruit. They contain little
protein, the flesh building chemi-
cal, and almost no fat. But the
sugars they contain are sure fire
energizers. They are mostly
simple sugars which enter the
blood quickly after being swal-
lowed and spark like hig.. octane
gas.
In vitamins and minerals the
fruits lead all foods, however,
Nature own and greatest medi-
cines. Nearly all the fruits con-
tain Vitamin c, technically the
anti-scurvy vitamin. One doesn't
like TO think of it as associated
with such a repulcve word as
scurvy, however. 1t is the fresh
ener of the blood, the brightenef
Of the eyes and lips and tongue
and the refurbisher Of the skin.
Vitamin A. while not so plenti-
full, is found in apples, in good
quantity in peaches, some IN
pears, prunes and tangerines.
Vitamin B is also found In
apples, canteloup2s, berries,
grapes, lemons, peaches, pears.
There are two varieties Of Vita
min B, water soluble and fat SOL
uble, and naturally the water
soluble sort predominates IN
fruits.
Fruits Contain Minerals
Nobody need worry about his
body getting enough minerals as
long as be eats plenty Of fruit.
Calcium, PHOSPHORUS, iron and
sulphur are the essential minerals
the fundamentals, as one might
say, and there is hardly any fruit
you can n me that hasn't some or
all of them in easily assimilable
form.
Apples are in the list of TIE
dozen foods richest in calcium,
PHOSPHORUS and iron. Of course
they do not stand as high in per-
centages as the champions in each
class, such as milk for calcium,
egg yolk for phosphorus and spi-
mach for iron, but then putting
them up against q heavyweight
in each class is hard going for
anybody or anything.
Calcium for bone, teeth and
blood coagulation, sulphur for
Identification of the skin, phos-
phorus for nerves and muscles,
iron for blood hemoglobin-enjoy
their intake by eating fruits.
"Stay me with apples" said Solo
mon, who had a good reputation
for wisdom.

|Kravchenko Denies
Embassy's Charge
He's Army Deserter
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, April 8.-Victor A..
Kravchenko, employe of the Rus
sian Purchasing Commission, today
denied an accusation by the Soviet
Embassy in Washington that he was
la "deserter" from the Russian
Army.
The Embassy made the accusa-
ton yesterday in taking cognizance
Of published statement earlier this
week which quoted Mr.. Kravchenko
as saying he had resigned from the
commission because OF double
faced political maneuvers" of his
government.
Mr.. Kravchenko, the Embassy
said, was due to leave for Russia in
two weeks for military service.
In a reply today Mr.. Kravchenko
said:
"If the accusation of desertion
had any foundation in fact
I would not have told the press, as I
did in may statement, that was a
captain in the Red Army, and would
have deserted simply by disappear
ing without leaving a trace"
He added that he had received no
indication that he was to return to
Russia soon. On the contrary, he
said, the commission had decided to
transfer him to a more responsible
post, which would have entailed his
staying in the United States for a
long period.
