PHILADELPHIA, June 20.
(ANP)-As far as the neighbor
hood around South Philadelphia is
concerned, the butter famine is
over for the time being but at the
expense of patients in the Philadel-
phia Naval hospital.
With the arrest of three men, one
navy man at the hospital, police
disclosed that most of the 300
pounds of butter stolen from the
hospital was sold from door to door
at 65 cents a pound.
A suspicious householder led to
the arrest of the suspects-Homer
Phillips, %, stewards mate sec
ond class; Spencer Thomas, 32, and
Samuel Lee, %, both of Philadel-
phia.
The suspicious householder called
police and said everybody in the
neighborhood was being offered the
butter by two men, one of them in
navy uniform.
Detectives sped to the scene and
arrested Phillips and Thomas, each
Of whom was carrying two pounds
of butter. When the two implicated
Lee, the detectives went to his home
and after disarming him, recovered

In reference to working condi-

ties are especially poor for those
who are not permanently employed.
In Panama, this category of worker
gets employment only when work
is available and during the waiting
period they are subjects of much

growing older with no prospect of
improvement as long as they re

Lee learned that there was a
deckhands union in Harlem known
as Local La, but there is so little

trying to get permanent jobs in

Blitzstein told how colored musi-
clans and choruses used for the
special symphony he composed in a
USO unit sent overseas were en-
barrassed, especially in London,
because of friction between white
and colored CT audiences. Problems
of racial tolerance, which top the

Fireworks At
Christmas Are
Plentiful Here

Fireworks were evident In
abundance in Henderson during
the Christmas period this week,
despite bans imposed by the city,
although apparently not as much
so as in other years.
The city forbade both the sale
and the exploding OF fireworks
within the city limits. The county
had adopted similar ban. but
later found its action was nulli-
fled by existing State law.
Fireworks were sold ut a num-
Der of stations in the suburbs. and
were freely purchased by many
customers. Explosion OF fireworks
seemed to be of the heavy crack
erS with their loud noise. The
celebration began even before
Christmas Eve and continued
that night. during Christmas Day
and that night and we'll into yes
tcrday and at night again.
Tremendous quantities of the
explosives were sold during the
season as funds were available in
the hands of individuals to pro-
vide this type Of celebration for
those inclined in that direction.

THE MORE we learn about the
oody's needs for nourishment, the
more We appreciate the complex
and often severe penalties of poor
nutrition.
Doctors are often called upon
to treat children--particularIy
those between the ages Of one and
fIve-whose chief symptom seems
TO be diarrhea, OF frequent empty
ing of the bowel. In such children,
the stools are loose and Uniformed
but not watery. They are large
and have frothy appearance.
Children afflicted in this way lose
weight 10 the extent that their
bodies have wasted appearance,
while at the same time the
abdomen is greatly swollen.
Growth in general is apt to be
retarded.
Set Of Symptoms
This set of symptoms is known
as the teliac syndrome and, ac-
cording to DR.. Sidney Farber Of
Boston, it il basically due TO a
long-continued failure of nutri-
ton, though four different condi-
tons may be responsible for the
nutritional failure in the frs,
place.
One of these probably results
from lack of a certain yitamin OF
group Of substances which are
found In liver extract DR.. Farbel
thinks that the condition is iden.
teal with another disorder known
as sprue. Tho symptoms in sprut
are similar to those which I hav,
mentioned, together with Other
conditions that develop as q result
Of faulty nutrition.
A Special Diet
Treatment consists of giving {
diet rich IN protein foods an,
limited IN fats and sugars
Bananas and banana powder hav,
also been found quite helpful. Tn

patient should. of course, be sup-
piled with liberal amounts Of
liver extract
Another cause Of the eeiiac
syndrome is infections which may
occur in the nose, throat, sinuses,
kidneys, or elsewhere in the body.
In such cases, infection interferes
with nutrition and the intestinal
disturbance clears up when the
infection is removed, as many of
them can be by treatment with
penicillin.
A Third Cause
Still third cause for the eeliae
syndrome is = lack Of secretioas
from . gland in the abdomen
known al tho pancreas. Children
with this condition have poor
nutrition, large stools, and diar-
rhea- The pancreatic deficiency
may be produced by some defect
in the formation of this gland
present at the time of birth, or by
scar tissue which forms following
an acute inflammation Of the
pancreas.
The fourth cause of this condi-
ton is due to developmental de-
fects in either the heart, the
organs of the genito-urinary sys-
tenn or to defects in the way in
which the stomach and intestine
are attached to the walls of the
abdomen.
The Treatment Varies
The treatment of children with
panereatic deficiency varies, Of
course, with the condition present.
However, many Of them get along
very we'll with proper diet and
certain pancreatie extract
Vitamins may be given IN
liberal amounts. The diet sho1ld
be limited IN fats, and also IN
starchy foods, such - potatoes
and bread, but should be high IN

] tables, fruits, and ssgars.
