CAPSULE FOOD
Pills Make
Poor Meals

LONDON. - DIR. Hellmuth Ed
hardt Heitz, one of the worlds lead
ing authorities on concentrated
foods, says future generations neec
not fear the advent of capsulec
beefsteaks or pillbox strawberry
shortcake.
Heitz, who began experimenting
with food concentrates nearly q
years ago after getting the idea
during a big game hunt, asserted
that capsuled food could never be
substituted for solids as a perma.
nent diet.
However, he believes capsuled
food has its place. and an impor-
tant one, especially in an
emergency.
The naturalized Briton, who stud
led medicine at the University of
Vienna, is now the head of Allied
laboratories, which manufactures
emergency rations in tablet form
at the rate of two million a week.
Heitz's ration is contained in a
pill the size of a quarter. called
Etagone. 1t was used during the
war by the British merchant navy,
commands and ambulance units
and now is being converted for
peacetime.
Plans Large Scale Test.
The doctor said a large scale test
would be conducted shortly in a
famine area. He said Etagone also
would be a fit luncheon for a har-
assed office worker.
at is far healthier to have n
of my pills than to gobble down a
badly made sandwich and suffer
Indigestion" he commended.
Heitz said Etagone, which will
keep a mar comfortably for five
and a half days without food or
water, comes in many flavors. Fa-
vorite flavor during the war with
the British navy was a banana and
caramel mixture.
This flavor selecting is a deli

must be careful to pick one that
does not produce thirst" He said
that ruled out beefsteak flavor.
Tailored for Taste.
Etagone will be tailored to taste
for various foreign countries, he
said, although the ingredients are
the same. He said China, for in
stance, might want a pressed duck
flavor in their Etagone, while lemon
probably would be popular in the
United States.
Heitz said he would go to Amer
lea to see about prospects for man.
ufacturing Etagone there.
The scientist said he conducted
many of the initial tests himself.
He lived for five and a half days
on Etagone.
IT had no thirst at all and slept
better than usual" he said. He
hopes to store enough energy in
Etagone to last a man for n week,
which he considers the maximum.
The tablets contain no moisture
but are designed to prevent any
feeling of thirst by helping the body
make the best use of its water re-
serves. Etagone provides the equiv
alent of nine-elevenths of an ounce
of fresh meat protein and the same
amount of minerals as a days or
diet, with a half ounce of
dextrin and ovolecithin.
The dose is four tablets a day.

terday to settle the long standing
railroad labor dispute, but reported
mo progress had been made.
Spokesman for the rail operators
and three unions talked separately
for two hours with John r. Steel
man, Presidential Assistant.
The unions want more than the

May 10 when President Truman
seized the rail system. 1t has been
under nominal operation by the
Army ever since.

Tuesday on a Government plea to
change his existing no-strike order
to a permanent injunction. He had
indicated he would rule on it today.
However. Justice Department Off
eials said the hearing has been post
poned until next Tuesday. The
court ruling would follow that.
