Don't Starve Child

The mistake that the meal plan
ner is most likely to fall into is
not to give a child enough food
not to supply enough calories. An
average adult of $50 pounds at
ordinary activity can get along
with 1900 to 1000 calories. An &C
tive boy of FIVE will use 1900 cal
cries and by the time he is ten
he will be using $500 calories. The
peak Of caloric requirement IS
about sixteen for boys or girls
when they use up about 1000
Galleries. No wonder they eat be-
tween meals; nature tells them to.
say the difficulty of supplying
this TO the child with a chronic
disease is more apparent than real
because the disease Of childhood in
which caloric restriction is most
likely to be imposed is diabetes
and when insulin is brought in as
part of treatment any amount Of
Galleries and any kind Of food may
be taken.
The protein requirement Of chill
dren is higher than adults-nat-
urally because protein is the ele-
ment Of which flesh is made and
the child is growing. An adult
needs from one to two grams Of
protein per pound of body weight,
but in a child from the ages Of
eleven to fifteen the requirement
is two to three times that. This
problem affects the conscientious
meal planners with children with
kidney and heart disease, but 1t
may be remembered that DR.. Shat
tuck, Of Harvard, used to say to
the dieticians-"The patient is
more important than the disease"
Enough protein for growth won't
hurt kidney and heart diseases.
Calcium And Phosphorus
Calcium and phosphorus are far
more necessary for children than
adults, going into the growth of
bone, and nervous tissue. Milk,
watercress, beans, lettuce, cab
bage, whole wheat bread, are foods
which contain good quantities of
both chemicals.
Salt restriction in children who
have kidney trouble with dropsy
should not be carried too far. The
idea Of forbidding not only table
salt but every food which contains
salt will result in more harm than
good except during the acute ex-
acerbation Of the diseases.
The vitamin problem solves it
self in these days of synthetic
vitamins. But be sure they are
fresh and active.

Pills for All

President Truman has opened up the broad subject of compulsory medical insurance. No complain of his ideals for improving the nations health.
 To attain these ideals without specializing medicine, which he condemns is another story healthier nation will produce than enough extra wealth added costs o a health plan but there are big stumbling blocks
 We cannot help thinking of childhood aversion to castor oil the memory of which painfully fingers on That was coercion if friendly Again too health insurance IS available in regular policies today without adding deduc tons pay envelopes and creating corp of federal insurance collectors and disbursers
 Most people pick their doctors and many fer to underwrte their chances of serious illness There will be opposition to carrying the burden of those who get sick through their neglect and fault.
 The President frankly calls it compulsory plan and Americans do not like compusion On the other hand we it to ourselves and future generations to make scientific improvements available to for the common good We suggest that workable plan must have the CO., operation the medical profession otherwise the quality of health service will deterorate We cannot legsate dis but public funds sensby to promote public health if we avoid the radical methods.
 The American people will not submit to becoming "guinea pigs for group of politically appointed public ally paid medical expermeners However the idea of nsrng against and spreading the risk and cost of medical by ones physician is mathematcay sound and proven The Presidents approach is also sound and deserving of open minded consideration by all sides.

 There is no dsputing the obvious fact that the high school junior high set is out of hand But the blame can't be simply dropped their shoulders and punishment meed accordingly There is need for deeper understanding and that understanding lies in seeXamination by the older generations.

A JUST VERDICT
fStandard-Timesl

(Standard-Times)
 That the mass trial of Josef Kramer the Beast of Bclsen,' and 43 others for war crimes should have resulted in verdicts of guilty against most of them, was general ly foreseen. The evidence of their responsibility for atrocities at Bel sen and Oswiecim was overWhelm- ing, and their 50 what?" attitude counted heavily against them. The British military court before which they were tried seems to have given the accused every opportunity to defend themselves, and if anything bent over backward to be fair.
 It may be that Kramer and his female accomplice, Irma Grese, along with Dr. Fritz Klein, who picked the victims for the gas chamber, are psychopathics. The The sadistic taint revealed in their conduct is unmistakable. It can not be doubted that they enjoyed the opportunity afforded them to infiict horrible torture and death on defenseless people.
 pAp lO lCdNN bAlC AlAtbSSA bAASA would be -simplification It would ignore the fact that their cruelty was in accord with the pol icy of the Nazis who controlled the Government of the Reich. It is in- conceivable that the men at the top, whose power was absolute, and who had command of a far reach ing secret service organization. were not aware of what was going on and what persons like Kramer and the Grese woman were doing. That the latter were acting in conformity with policy determined by Hitler and his associates cannot be doubt ed, and even if the hi9her-ups merely did not interfere, that would not save them from being adjudged accessories to the crimes commit ted.
 Kramer, Grese and Klein, at least, knew the quality of their acts are legally sane. and deserve the extreme penalty of death which the British court has imposed upon | them.

Labor Union Business
By Peter EdSon

dues payments were in the neighborhood of 252 mil lion dollars
 The Treasury report gives no figures on union membership, but estimating 1t at the frequently claimed figure of 15 million, the average per capita contribution would be about $17 year
 In the Treasury's breakdown of union income reported gross for the year of over five million dollars each Thirty unions reported in the oneto-five million income class. Four hundred re- ported incomes of from $l00000 to million dollars a year. But the vast majority of the unons-the locals-are revealed little organizations which would be tax-exempt in any law that might be writ ten by hostile Congress. Over 10000 of these locals had incomes of less than ST. 900 year and another 13,000 received less than $l0,000 for the year
 Some of the big unions frankly iE business. Out of the total of 2800O unions reporting for the Treasurys compilation, l,34l reported they were in business the Side-operating banks, office build ings and other properties which in 1943 brought them income of over 3 million dollars total The total for liabilities showed cash on hand of over nine million dollars loans and investments Of over 20 millions, real estate owned worth over five millions.
 Many unions are known to have bought war bonds to the limit of their treasury funds Interest payments to the unions on their investments put at over million a year Receipts from rentals or unoh owned property were half million. And not so n- cidentaly the unions did pay over million dollars in taxes on their holdings. So they aren't exactly tax free.
 About 83 per cent of the unions l943 income wa sreported as expense The total was 323 millions, leaving 67 millions union profits or reserves to the year. in accounting for the total income or 39O millions
 No unions are identified by name in the Treas ury compilation The totals merely give an nolca- ton of how big organized labor has become Whether or the figures give justification for taxation or other financially restrictive operation will be up to Congress when 1t writes the next tax bill

Finally the young California Senator proposed that labor and management get together ana @ estl- mate each year what the coming years business would be- together with the most equitable division of profits for the workers Cthrough wages), for the stockholders (through dvidends) and for the con- sumers (through lower priceS).
 Such plan of course, would mean the new and to some business moguls-revolutionary step of opening the books of company to the public
 Progressive as this is, Sen Knowlands idea all ready has received support in many Congressional quarters It is argued that if the books of the pig auto companies or U s. Steel available for ex- animation 1t could be accurately ascertained just how much wage increase was justified. It IS also argued that companies as big as U 5. Steel ana General Motors are virtual public utilities. When they stop operation 1t affects business throughout the nation. Reconversion is absolutely stymied.
 This is also why 1t Is being proposed that Pres ident Truman revive the old TNEC, or something similar to 1t. The TNEC joint committee Of Congress and the executive branch of the govern ment which studied monopoly little business, and the economics of the country generally.
 Today with reconversion begged down and scores of new economic problems to face, both the administration and Congress lack the concrete facts on which to chart a revised economic course. That is why new quick economic study along the lines of the old TNEC is probably needed now more than ever before.
