Peace that comes out of the barrel of a gun will never be lasting.” Trevor Fowler, from the African National Congress, is waging an armed struggle internally and exter- naly with South A frica. Friday, A p ril 6th, at the M a tt Dishman C om m unity Center, Fowler said South African women have borne the brunt of racist policies. “ Women are regarded as "super fluous appendages," meaning they are things. They have been moved from the city to bantustans where there is no economic support, agricultural base or natural resour ces.” He also told the audience that dur ing times of civil unrest, U .S. cor- porations w ill be used and taken over by the South African military. The themes echoed by both Fowler and Boesak are the same. As long as Black people in South Africa are not free. Black people in America will not be. Boesak said, " W h y is it when the Reagan A d ministration comes into power, the people that suffer first are the poor and weak? Black people suffer in this country, not simply because they are poor; they are poor because they are Black. This administration has little concern for Black people in South A fric a because it has little concern for Black people in America.” Although Fowler and Boesak’ s methods d iffe r on the road to freedom for Blacks in South Africa, the element that remains crystal clear is that the struggle for justice will continue. Freedom will come in South Africa either through rational negotiating or from the barrel of a gun. AUTO IW AY BROAD part, to the work of Dr. Williams, the bread industry began adding replacement nutrients to their white flour products in the l930’s. When enrichment first began, our knowledge of vitamins and minerals was very limited, in fact, only a few o f the current vitam ins had been isolated and the role o f most minerals in human function was dram atically incomplete. As the numbers of known vitamins has in creased, the food industries have not kept pace, and the standard enriched products still lack many of the nutrients found in the whole food. It is interesting to note that Dr. Williams is now one of the out spoken critics o f the enrichment process. Much of our current knowledge of vitamins began with the discovery o f certain disease states associated with diets emphasizing polished rice, and the absence of these con ditions in prison diets that em phasized (he germ and discarded products o f the polishing process. While we do not have common oc- curances of Beri Beri or Pelegra in the United States due in part to the enrichment process, we do have an alarming presence o f degenerative diseases. The benefits o f lecithin, vitam in E. Selenium and fiber in retarding the development o f c a r diovascular disease, heart disease, bowel cancer and other forms o f cancer are recognized by today's medical com m unity, yet largely ignored by the enrichment processes. What effect other trace nutrients have on promoting health and minimizing disease will become clear in the future. We can safely assume that our n u tritio n a l knowledge is yet incomplete, and therefore any enrichment process w ill fail to include a complete replacement of the original nutrients of the whole food. There is no question that enriched foods are preferable to non- enriched processed foods. It is equally clear that whole foods offer added nutrients absent in enriched products. "The Doctor of the future will give no medicine ...b u t will interest his patients in the care o f the human frame, in the cause and prevention of diseases.” — Thomas A. Edison O ur nation is a leader in the technological advances of modern medicine. Yet amid this "h ig h - te c h " system there has been a minimum of attention given toward improving the public awareness and participation in preventative areas. There are many things that we can do to help insure a healthier life. With an increased understanding in the causes and nature of disease and an appreciation o f preventative health care, we may well meet the stresses o f life with a stronger vitality. One o f the most im portant elements of preventative medicine is proper nutrition. While nutritional needs vary from person to person, there is a great amount of knowledge that is applicable to most people. This and the next few a r ticles will focus on nutritional areas, aimed at helping you make knowledgeable decisions in your nutritional habits. The debate over whether enriched foods are better than whole foods has continued for over 40 years. The proponents of enriched foods argue that more o f certain nutrients are lound in enriched products, and therefore, the end product is superior. Those who disagree often point out that many nutrients found in the whole food are removed and never replaced, leaving the enriched product much less complete than the original whole food. Let us examine the enrichment process to better understand the merits of these arguments. Enrich ment basically refers to the process of adding concentrated nutrients to refined products in an effort to ap proximate the original components o f the base fo o d .. The process o f enrichment has its roots in the work of Dr. Roger Williams, a pioneer in vitam in research. Due, in a large Ad\ O n 307 N.E. Broadway Portland.

So far he has learned how to organize a k it chen, done some baking, and par ticipated in several classroom demonstrations. Frazier loves the classroom ex periences and particularly enjoys being around the Jefferson students, "th e young people are so helpful, and they seem to be interested in cooking.” Several basketball players are enrolled in the co-ed foods class, so it was no surprise to Find Frazier cheering the Demos on at the State Basketball Tournament. "H e ’s a beautiful person," reports M rs. Transue. " I t ’s a real asset having him with us. He talks to my students and lets them know how much he’s learned.” Principal Nate Jones hopes to ex pand the idea o f adults returning to Jefferson’s classes " I see the whole school being open,” he explained.
