Proposal 10 Improve
u. ). Health Standards
Studied by Congress
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
A recommendation that the Ma
tion act at once to improve its health
standards, which have caused some
100000 men to be rejected by the
armed forces, was before Congress
today.
A subcommittee named by the
Senate Labor Committee to study
wartime health and education re-
ported that of 100000 men of
military age at least 40 per cent are
unfit for general military duty.
"If this situation was preventable
and we are profoundly convinced
that it was-this Nation has an i'm
mediate duty to seek an adequate
remedy" the subcommittee report
asserted.
The group, headed by Senator
Pepper, Democrat, of Florida, pro-
posed:
A vast national health program
centered about postwar State-Fed-
eral construction of hospitals and
health centers.
Federal loans and grants to aid In
providing sewer and water facilities
and milk pasteurization plants in
communities which lack them.
Full-time public health depart
ments in all communities as soon as
needed personnel becomes available,
with increased Federal grants to
State health departments.
Army consideration for increased
induction and rehabilitation of men
rejected because of mental and
physical defects.
Preservation of selective service
medical records and appropriation
of funds for study of them.
Immediate steps to provide more
medical men with training in psy-
chiatry with a view to providing
child-guidance and mental hygiene
clinics on far wider scale"
Federal scholarships or loans to
assist qualified students-both men
and women-desiring medical or
dental education.
Federal funds be made available
to the States for medical care of all
recipients of public assistance.

BORDER TOBACCO
SALES SET MARK
Bv The Associated Press

Gross sales in 1915 on the South
Carolina and border North Carolina
flue-cured tobacco markets were
the largest on record and returned
the growers a general average
higher than any other ever paid,
the Federal-State Marketing news
service reported yesterday.
The report stated that the 28l,-
O7O,578 pound marketed exceeded
gross sales last year by % million
pounds.
The general average Of $40. Sc per
hundred was an advance OF "
cents over last year and increased
the gross value around IL million
dollars. Since the general quality
of tobacco was about the same as
last season, the larger returns
were attributed chiefly to higher
average prices by grades.
For the past three seasons the
prices paid for better quality grad
es has remained practically I'M
changed, but there has been
steady rise in average for medium
and lower quality grades. When
compared with 1914 grade prices,
common to good leaf showed IN
creases ranging from 81 to 81!
with the greatest gains in low and
common qualities and the major
ity.up 81 to So. Smoking leaf and
cutters remained steady to 81 high
er. Lug grades were stronger by
81 to 81 and nondescript ranged
upward from 81 to $1,000.
A summary shows that the crop
contained a slightly larger per-
centage of good leaf, common to
fine smoking leaf, and fair to fine
cutters than last year. A small In
crease in the proportion OF non
descript was noted, with a de-
crease in the percentage OF COM
mon to fair leaf.
Orange offerings predomlnated
followed closely by lemon, with
less green tobacco marketed.

To quote one of them who at

We know democracy is, not per-

fears and greeds which result in
war. Because civilization cannot
stand another war it cannot tolerate
hunger anywhere in the world"
It is a scientific fact, Anderson
said, that the world can produce
enough food and fibre for every-

rise in living standards, he said,
SO that all peoples can buy and sell
in the world market and make
enough money to get the food they
need.
