Signs of Fatigue

Weakness, ir~ritability, difficulty in

mon to both fatigue and hunger.
Malnutrition not yet severe enough
to be a real deficiency disease, still
may be responsible for mental de-
preston, indigestion, easy fatigue,
loss of weight, slow learning abil-
ity, interference with vision, and
clumsiness at jobs requiring skill

how it gained national recognition

as the living symbol Of Christmas

how it all came to an end when the
war broke out in 1914.
Yesterday morning City Council

and sponsored the Christmas tree
when he was Commissioner of Pub

0PA TAKES PRICE
LID OFF ALL FAT
0leo, Vegetable Oils, Dairy
Products Now Decon-
troll; Wage Ban Next

WASHINGTON, Oct. Is R-
OPA took all price restraints off
vegetable fats and oils Wednesday
night, and the price decontrol
board decided to keep butter and
other dairy products equally free
of control.
These two decisions, following
close on the freeing of meat from
price control, were disclosed as
another form of wartime restrict
ions, Government curgs on wages,
appeared for a quick death.
They conceded, too, with increas'
ing political debate as to who Is
to blame for the food shortages
and rising prices. Elections in
which these issues are already
a big factor will be held Novem-
Der 5.
In its fats and oils order, which
is effective Thursday, OPA said
that decontrol of such meat items
as lard made it imperative to
grant the same to competing vege-
table oils. Housewives will notice
the effects chiefly on olemargarine,
shortening, mayonnaise, salad
dressing and cooking oils.
Unreasonable Rise
The decontrol board announced
that butter and cheese prices ''have
now risen to an unreasonable
level" but added that under the
accelerated decontrol program OF
President Truman, it had no choice
but to leave dairy products con-
trol-free.
"Recontrol of all or any part OF
the dairy industry would be in
consistent with the accelerated
decontrol program announced by
the President on October IA when
he directed that controls be lifted
from livestock and meat" the
board said.
