Dangers Israel


Imminent danger to Israel Is
seen in Stalin's new strategy of
fomenting local eruptions against
American-supported- governments.
Israel is threatened as "a Com
munist coup looms in Iran
(Persia)-a coup which. might
easily ignite the incendiary Near
East.
There the outlawed Commu
mist Party, Tudeh, is bidding its
time to capitalize, with the aid
of Russian arms, on inherent
Iranian political and social weak
nesses It's premier, a strongly
anti Communist militarist, Gen.
Hal Ali Razmara, is unpopular.
Iranians are restive. Red agents
are alive to the moment.
Iran, like Korea, is adjacent to
Soviet territory It is likely that
Stalin's new strategy of letting
others do his fighting may be ap-
piled in Iran. Such a move would
further extend Americas strain
ed military resources. Red propa-
panda would again paint us as
"imperialist aggressors" bent on
maintaining hated ''puppet"
government.
A Communist move in the Near
East would enable Russia to out
flank Turkey, block the Suez
Canal, seize submarine bases on
the Indian Ocean and possibly on
the Mediterranean, and grab the
tremendous oil reserves of Iran,
Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Kuwait.

Health and Weiqht
Slight Overweight Recommended
for Boys, Girls, Young Adults
By james w. Borton, M. D.

More is written about over
weight than underweight because
in adults overweight often leads
to diabetes. kidney, heart and
blood-vessel ailments. Insurance
companies, to which illness and
death are matters of extreme con-
Germ, from two financial stand
points, are able to show that over
weight is a liability. Some over
weights are refused insurance en-
tirely and others have to pay the
premium required for individuals
several years older.
However. in boys, girls and
young adults Cup to the age of 30)
it is best to keep the weight up to
or slightly above the average, as a
few extra pounds is considered
some protection against children's
infections and against tubercu-
losis. 1t is agreed that under
weight in young people is due in
most cases to not getting enough
food or the right kind of food.
Often youngsters are not outdoors
enough to develop normal appe-
tites, while others play so hard
outdoors that they are too tired
to eat at the evening meal or to
absorb completely into the blood
the food eaten. Military men, ex-
plorers, mountain climbers all
find that after a hard days work,
rest of at least half an hour be-
fore meal will maintain strength,
whereas If a heavy meal is eaten
Immediately, there is apt to be
some stomach distress, and loss of
strength.
A youngster who is not eating
enough food may not have the
strength to play outdoors, but
there are underweight youngsters
who are so fond Of play that they
play too hard and too long at one
time. At mealtime, despite hun
ger, they are too tired to digest
the food eaten.
AS youngsters, when we came in
from school at 4 pm, we were
given, or helped ourselves to. a
large slice of bread, well buttered
and covered thickly with brown
sugar. A chocolate bar or a
banana or piece of candy gives
energy to- play till the evening
meal. Thus when we sat down to
the evening meal. all the sugar
Starch food had been used up
by outdoor play and we were hun
CRY again for food.
Foods that give quick energy
are the starch foods-sugar,
bread, potatoes-and they will put
on fat if not used or burned by the
body processes.
However, food, In proper amount
and kind, is not the only method
Of increasing weight. Sleep is
just as important to health,
strength and weight as food. Sleep
has the same effect on the body
as food because 1t prevents wear
and tear on tissues. In addition
to rest at night there should be a
Evening star., 1950-03-12

few minutes rest before meals,
preferably lying on the right side.
While lying on the right side, any
undigested food lying in the
stomach gets syphoned into the
small intestine, thus leaving the
stomach clean and clear, ready for
the next meal. 1t may readily be
seen that if a youngster is resting
he is not using up body tissues as
he would be If he were up and
about, walking or running. Sleep,
then, by saving the tissues, has the
same effect as eating food in pre-
serving and building up the tissues.
In any program to increase
weight. rest and sleep are as i'm
portant as body building foods.
