BISHOP MANNING RETIREs
(New York Times


 We in New York have much req son to be grateful for William Thomas Manning. He has not failed in his long service here to take a position on large issues, nor feared to mack the position known even when it meant embodiment in con- tToversy. He made no small plans. We have as the physical heritage of his vigor that great Cathedral on Morningside Heights, for which through his driving enthusiasm gifts of many millions of dollars were gathered from people of all faiths who delighted to share in building a House of Prayer. He composed in rare union the qualities of a man of faith, the executive talents of an administrator and the practical genius of the business man in man.

Your Health
By WILLIAM BRADY, N. D.
R1EEUM IT IS OK FsIIEUM
 IT ISN'T

To the best of my knowledge knowledge? Heck, it is just notion --the rfeumatiz, arthritis or joint trouble due to infection is one type or class of ailment or disease, and the joint disability due to rutT1- tional deficiency is another type or classd of ailment or disease, an there is no similarity between them except that both ailments or dis eases affect joints.
 I speak of the joint disability due to nutritional deficiency as tho this were an established pathological fact. It is not an established fact. It is just my belief or opinion, for what 1t may be worth, that nutri- tional deficiency manifests itself in joint disability in @ great many inc stances, among the well but not wisely fed people of Yankeela11d.
 The reheumatiz due to nutritiOnal deficiency is not t11fiammatory and does not follow one or more acute attacks of arthritis or red and swol- len joints. It is a degeneration rather than an inflammation of all the structures of the joint - bone, cartilage, synovia1 lining membrane and even the muscles that move the joint are involved in the process of deterioration, wasting, bTea king down and of course impairment or loss of function.
 Here let me quote a passage from what I believe is the best medical textbook and the best book for an intelligent layman, on geriatricS which is not in the dictionary but will be just as soon as Q dozen of more physicians in the country gel up their courage and limit theiI practice to the diagnosis and treat ment of diseases of old folkS-Dr Ernst P. Boass Treatment of the Patient Past Fifty" End ed, A Year Book Publishers, Chicago:

U.S.. Bureau May Keep
Child Advisory Group

The National Commission on
Children In Wartime, emergency
group set up to advise the Labor
Department four years ago, today
proposed to continue in that capac-
ity for two more years as a COM
mission on children and youth"
A three-day commission meeting
at the Labor Department was sched-
uled to close today with a decision
on the proposal.
Debate early today was marked
by strong pleas by representatives
Of labor that the Children's Bureau
be kept within the Labor Depart
ment, not transferred to the pro-
posed new Government department
for Health, Education and Social
Welfare.
Boris Shishkin, representing the
American Federation of Labor, and
Kermit Eby, representing the Con-
|gress Of Industrial Organizations,
agreed the Children's Bureau should
keep its present status. Then
Broadus Mitchell, representing the
International Garment Workers
Union, suggested that instead the
Labor Departments responsibility
be increased to include the duties
to be blanketed under the proposed
new cabinet post.
Miss Katharine F. Lenroot, direc-
tor of the Children's Bureau, said
that the natural place of her bureau
would seem to be in any social wei
fare agency to be set up, but feared
the bureau might lose the broad
powers it now has within the Labor
Department.

Wyatt Will Testify
On Housing Today
Al House Hearing

Wilson w. Wyatt confirmed q.
National Housing Administrators b.
the Senate yesterday without dis
sent. today went before an executive
session of the House Banking Com.
mittee considering the Patmar
housing bill.
He was to give the committee de-
tails Of the admint5tration's emer-
gency housing program which Is ex-
pected to be announced shortly.
The committee apparently was
anxious to see just how the program
believed to cover a two-year period,
would dovetail with provisions OF
the Patman bill, which originally
called for ceilings "a used and new
homes, creation Of d special housing
ofice and provisions for subsidies to
certain building n1dterial manufac-
turers.
Mr.. Wyatt told the committee last
week he did not think a special Of
nee had to be created now that the
President has given him broad pow
ers. He took no stand on subsidies,
but urged ceilings on houses as well
as building lots.
The committee has voted down
price controls over used homes.
Representative Patman, Democrat,
OF Texas has stated, however, that
he is prepared to take the fight to
the House floor.
Administration officials have been
working night and day on details
of the emergency housing program.

Armenian Red Official
Again Suggests Return
OF Area From Turkey
By the Asso1iated Press.

LONpON, Feb. IA Moscow
broadcast quoting the magazine New
Times yesterday declared that the
war had brought "the changes nee
essary for the Arab countries to OBJ
tain national sovereignty" and In
Soviet Armenia high official said
Armenians wanted "the return of
Soviet Armenian land forcibly oc-
cIpied by Turkey"

the troubled Middle East followed a
declaration in Tifiis by Marshal J. P.
Beria that "the difficulties which
Soviet foreign policy has to encoun-
ter in the international arena must
not be forgotten"
The Moscow broadcast quoting the
New Times said important changes
have also occurred in the relations
of forces between the great powers
who consider themselves involved In
a solution of the Middle East prob
lens. .
It said Arab countries were striv-
ing for independence, and that the
United States was becoming active
in the Middle East, particularly In
economic penetration"
Press dispatches in Moscow quoted
Secretary Grigori Arutinov OF the
Central Committee of the Commu-
mist party in Armenia as declaring
in an election speech at Yereven
that "the entire Armenian people
now raise the question about the
return Of Soviet Armenian land
forcibly occupied by Turkey"
Turkey obtained about half OF
Caucasian Armenia in a border dis
pute In 1921. The Moscow press has
published prominently requests by
Armenians in other lands that Kars
and Ardagan in Eastern Turkey be
returned to Soviet Armenia.
The broadcast quoting the maga-
zine warned of a tense situation de-
veloping In the Middle East.
THE United States has become
active in the Middle East and is
displaying considerable interest In
economic penetration, especially in
Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen" !"
the broadcast continued.
The New Times article described
the Palestine problem as one which
has become much more intricate
on account Of the conflict between
the Arab and Jewish populations. -
1t observed that the British Amer
ican Committee on Jewish Immigra-
ton had been created without par
ticipation of the Arab States"

broadcast, by voice or Morse code

There were at least six or seven

cast. was called down at night
two, I think three, times by the
watch officer, who thought he had
intercepted a winds code message
In each instance careful examina-
ton of these plain-language iJapa-
nese broadcasts made me reach the
conclusion that they were ordinary
weather broadcasts.
No Occasion to Check.
MY presumption at the time was
that the watch officer decided that
this Friday December 81 message
fulfilled the conditions. I had no
occasion to check on these points
The message may have been re-
peated the proper number OF times
and carried out the other conditions
of the weather code.
TN the last few weeks I have
seen record Of some interrogations
Of high Japanese officials under the
direction Of Gen. Macarthur. In
view of their statement that no
broadcast carrying out the weather
code ever was sent, and the other
evidence, my present belief is that
the message saw Friday morning
was a false alarm on the winds
system.
MY impression at the time was
that it was authentic, and that only
one country was involved. To. the
best Of my belief, that country was
England"
If there had been a negative form
In the code-as Capt. Stafford In
dicated when he said it specified

would have nullified the whole code,
