Wholesome Sweet
Foods, Moderately
Taken, Not Harmful

Wholesome sweet foods, eaten in
moderate quantities in addition to a
well-balanced diet, will not harm most
children, Dr. r. H. Riley, Director of
Health. said in a special holiday state
ment for parents. He warned, how
ever, that there is danger in allowing
the candy, cakes and cookies that are
so tempting during the Christmas sea-
son to be substituted for the milk,
fruit, vegetables and meat needed for
health and growth. and gave the press
this brief discussion of nutritious
sweets prepared by the Nutritionists
of the State Department of Health.
INTENTIONALLY, sugar is the extreme
case of a one-sided food; for it fur
nishcs calorics and nothing else. In
general, concentrated forms of sugar
and candy are not recommended.
Rather sugar should be used to flavor
other foods and thus enable people to
eat larger quantities of fruits and
milk Children-and grown people
should consume their full quota of
milk, eggs, fruit and vegetables be-
fore satisfying their appetites and
filling their total caloric requirements
with sugar and fats.
"Wise parents can satisfy that crav-
ing for candy with sweet dishes con-
tanning fruit, milk, nuts and other nu-
tlitionally valuable foods. Whole
wheat fruit cake, soybean nut bread,
oatmeal-raisn cookies and peanut
cookies are nutritious sweets, par
ticularly if eaten in combination with
fresh or steWed fruits. An excellent
candy substitute can be made by
mostening ground raisins, apricots,
prunes and nuts with lemon juice,
shaping into balls and dipping in
brown sugar, white or coIored cocoa
nut OF ground nuts. Fruits, nuts or
rcady-to-eat cereals can also be dipped
in melted chocolate to make whole
some candy.
"For young children, between the
ages of three and six, desserts should
be limited to simple buildings, stewed
fruit, sponge cake and other easily
digested foods. Nuts should not be
given to children under six, as they
are hard to chew and Slow to digest

holders who resigned recently as
part of the political upheaval from
the county election August in
which the Paul Cantrell organiza-
tion was swept from Office by a slate
of ex-servicemen candidates.
A vote of 1900 was expected at
three precincts in this East Ten
nessee city of 10000 population.
Four candidates are qualified for
the race to succeed Paul j. Walker
as Mayor, II for the four vacant
seats on the five-man board of
aldermen. Alderman j. B. McNabb
was entered to succeed himself.
Sixteen persons are seeking the
six school board openings.
All the retiring officials held Office
while State Senator Cantrell was
in power, but were not necessarily
allied with him. Mr.. Walker and the
aldermen resigned because, they
said, their families were endangered;
the school board because it said it
was unable to please all factions.

Text of Statement.
The text of Gen. MacArthur's
statement follows:
In order that there may be no
mistake as to all facts in the case,
I wish to state: That Gen. Brereton
never recommended an attack on
Formosa to me and know nothing
of such a recommendation having
been made; that my first knowledge
of it was contained in yesterdays
press statement; that it must have
been of a most nebulous and super
fetal character, as no official record
exists of it at headquarters; that
such proposal, if intended serious
ly, should have been made to me in
person by him; that he never has
spoken of the matter to me either
before or after the Clark Field at
tack; that an attack on Formosa
with its heavy air concentrations by
his small bomber force without
fighter support which, because of
the great distance involved, was
impossible, would have had no
chance of success; that in the short
interval of time involved it is
doubtful that an attack could have
been set up and mounted before the
enemy's arrival; that the enemy's
bombers from Formosa had fighter
protection available in their attack
on Clark Field from their air car
riers, an entirely different condi-
ton than our own; that I had given
orders several days before to with
draw the heavy bombers from Clark
Field to Mindanao, several hundred
miles to the south, to get them out
of range of enemy land-based air:
that half of the bombers, l8, had
already been so withdrawn when
war broke; that Gen. Brereton was
fully alerted on the morning of De-
|cember Q94D and his fighters took
to the air to protect Clark Field
but failed to intercept the enemy;
that tactical handling of his air
force, including all measures for it's
protection against air attack of his
planes on the ground, was entirely
in his own hands; that the overall

strategic mission of the Philippine
command was to defend the Philip
pines, not to initiate an outside at
tack.
Our air forces in the Philippines
containing many antiquated mod
els, were hardly more than a token
force with insufficient equipment
incompleted fields and inadequate
maintenance. They were hopelessly
outnumbered and never had a
chance of winning. They were COM
pletely overwhelmed by the enemy s
superior forces. They did every
thing possible within their limited
resources. I attach no blame to
Gen. Brereton or other members
of the command for the incidents
of battle. Nothing could have saved
the day for them. They lost but
with no discredit. The date of
April l 0942) to which Gen. Brere-
ton refers was the earliest possible
date for the arrival of the neces-
sary reinforcements which would
make successful defense of the
Philippines possible. 1t was not
merely an anticipated date of enemy
attack"
Jap Conquest Hastened.
This exchange of statements was
the first public discussion by key fig
ures of the incident often called
Little Pearl Harbor." Loss of the
bombers doubtless hastened the Jap
anese conquest of the Philippines.
A Japanese pilot who participated
in that fateful raid on Clark Field
told me after I arrived in Tokyo
for the occupation that the timing
of the assault was not planned, but
was determined by heavy fog which
delayed the takeoff, originally sched-
uled much earlier in the morning
At the time, we learned, American
bombers were lined up neatly in
rows for refueling and the pilots
were at lunch or taking showers
The fatal attack was the third OF
the day on Clark Field. Many Amer
lean heroes emerged that day, but
when the assault ended the Amer
leans had little left to challenge
the increasingly strong and arrogant
Japanese air power.
The bulk of the American fighter
force was destroyed similarly-on
the ground-at Eba on Lingayen
Gulf two days later. After Decem-
Der 10 Americans saw only one
American plane over Manila.

sented "bit of step forward" but
IT think our jubilation should be
tempered by some study of what

I'VE made certain suggestions to

Der IL, regarding such procedures,
he said, land one was that USES
shouldn't accept discriminatory or
ders for employment. That is still
hanging fire, as far as I know, and
a further aspect of this angle will
probably be discussed at a meeting
today"
Edward Hollander, president of
the Washington Chapter of the
Union for Democratic Action, said
I'VE are all for it. 1t should have
been done long time ago. This
order of Secretary Schwellenbach
is the first step in breaking down
some of the unnecessary and dam
aging forms of segregation in the
District. 1t is exactly in line with
our program"
Tomlinson D. Todd. president of
the Institute of Race Relations and
director of the Americans-All radio
program, said he was very happy to
know that Mr.. Schwellenbach had
followed the course of true
democracy"
Also commenting was Charles w.

mittee congratulates and commends
Secretary Schwellenbach for direct
ing the elimination of segregation
in the District USES Offices" Mr..
Davis remarked. "An unemployed
veteran surely is entitled to equality
of opportunity in getting job and
should not be Disseminated against

his color"
Major Step Forward"
The Washington Industrial Union
Council said the order was "a ma
jor step forward in the promotion
of democracy" here. 1t said:
'The CIO is now able to disclose
for the first time that the letter of
Mr.. Wallace to Secretary Schwellen-
bach on August 10 requesting cor
rection of the abuses at the District
Employment Service was written at
the direct request of a local CIO
union. This letter was instrumental
in focusing the eyes of the Nation
on the local policy of segregation.
We take this opportunity of pub
licly thanking Henry Wallace for
the important service he rendered"
UPW Chief Praises Action.
Enthusiastic commentator of the
action of Secretary Schwellenbach
also was expressed by Abram Flaxer,
international president, UPW-CIO.
He said:
The abolition of segregated in
terviewing and referral procedure
and segregated files in the local
USES Office comes as the climax
to a five-year campaign waged by
the United Public Workers and it's
predecessor, the United Federal
Workers, CIO.
"Our union hopes that this coura-
geous action by the Secretary of

the elimination of segregation and
