POOR MEAL PLANNING
RESULTS IN MALNUTRITION
AND ILL HEALTH

Good eating at home, at work
and at school is essential to good
health, say nutritionists in the
US Department of Agriculture,
who point out that by eating bal
anced meals and sutting down on
waste, the American people can
share their food with the hungry
peoples abroad and still have a
plenty for healthful meals.
Through school lunches, indust-
rial feeding program, through in
formation about nutrition made
available to homeakers, and other
programs, USDA is helping to
conserve food and improve the
eating habits of the American
people, nutritionists state.
They point out, however, that
although the American people
spend about 80 billion dollars a
year for food, there F far too
many cases Of malnutFftion due
to poor meal planning, improper
selection Of foods, and waste.
The basic seven foods should be
the pattern for meal planning at
homie, and for meal purchases at
work and at school, nutritionists|
say. The basic seven foods are:
/. green and yellow vegetables,
3. oranges tomatoes, or grape
fruit, 3. potatoes and other veg
etables and fruits 4. meat, fish,
poultry, eggs, dry beans and peas
8. milk and milk products, s.
enriched bread and cereAls in lin
tied quantities so that our nei-
ghbors abroad may not starve,
and z. butter and margarine for
titled with vitamin A. Department
.utritionists suggest that at least
one serving from each group must !
be eaten every Cay in order tt

NUREMBERG, Jan. Is. - Field
Marshal Siegmund Wilhelm List,
former commander in chief of
Army Group "a" in the Caucasus,
was afraid to listen to foreign radio
broadcasts, he admitted today.
1T was against the Fuehrer's
orders and I wouldn't dream of
taking the chance, especially since
had a Maid whose political con-
victions were unknown to me-" he
told Allied intelligence officers.
He said Field Marshal Wilhelm
Keitel fired him after he refused to
undertake an "asinine" offensive
through the Caucasus passes in
order to establish a foothold on the
shore of the Black Sea.
Back in civilian life, List said he
heard rumors that the high COM
mand was to be thrust on him and
he lay awake nights thinking up
ways and means of lodging it.
Then the war became a soft blur
to him because his only informa-
tion came from the official German
communicates, which he distrusted
Allied officers asked him why he
didn't listen to foa sign broadcasts
and he replied:

two weeks of the meeting.
He refused to comment on Rus

Mr. Byrnes said he expected to re-

London particularly to try to see

Nations commission to study atomic
energy control was approved without
harmful amendments.
Accompanied by Mrs. Byrnes and
his staff of advisers, the Secretary
arrived at 12:45 pm. in President
Truman's Sacred Cow C-54 plane

Scientists know that low and

The ionized layers also sometimes
distort and bend radio waves, much
