REDS THREATEN SLAUGHTER OF Shanghai JP) A letter received here from one of the sixteen Ameri can Catholic missionaries, who for many weeks have been held pris oners In the Kiangsl province city of Kanchow, said that communist and bandit besiegers had threatened "when Kanchow falls, to kill every foreigner within the walls for rob bing us of our prize." Although the walls continued to holt the Reds, the latter, according to the letter, which was dated April 4. had notified Kanchow authorities that they considered the foreigners responsible for their fail ure to capture the city. Defense of Kanchow, the missionary said, continued unchanged with no im mediate danger of its capture. Meanwhile the Reds have with drawn part of their forces from the 'siege and "while awaiting Kanchow 's fall are busy plundering Uie sur rounding country, looting villages and kidnapping hostages. Scores of young women have been kidnapped and many rather than submit in tend to commit suicide as soon as an opportunity offered," the letter ssld. Numerous foreign missions tn South Kiangst have been attacked and the missionaries fled. The missionaries said that weal thy classes are suffering the es pecial hatred of th; communists and in one village 35 land owners were shot as a warning to surrender their property without resistance. The letter continued that Reds are con fiscating lands, destroying title deeds and establishing communal governments. This has resu'ted in great danger of food shortage for the coming year since the fields have not been planted. "It is only a matter of time until the entire southern part of Kiang sl province passes from government control," the letter concludes, "the future is Indeed black.

This year the national child health day will emphasise the health of the pre-school child and particularly those children who will enter school this comlg fall. A great many people do not be Uevc that it is necessary to care for the baby teeth because, so they rea son, the child will soon lose them and gain a good set of teeth in their stead, states a bulletin endorsed by the health unit This mistaken con ception has caused a great deal of unnecessary suffering and serious after-results that could have been prevented so easily, according to the bulletin. Of course, the baby teeth will alt be gone usually by the time the child Is 12 years of age, but the fact that these teeth were put there for a purpose and that some of them are going to stay even that long makes It necesary that we make ev ery effort to keep them as healthy and free from decay as possible. Aside from this the premature loss of one of these tittle teeth results oftentimes in a serious deformity of the face and jaws as well as a ser ious crippling of the child's chewing machinery at a time In his life when it is most vitally needed. These baby teeth are grinders to prepare all of the child's food for its reception Into the stomach. If they are diseased by decay so that the child cannot properly masticate his food, or if tuey are prematurely lost, the digestive organs are seriously handicapped. These teeth also hold the space In the mouth until the permanent teeth are ready to erupt; and every time that a baby tooth is prematurely lost lt has a direct bear ing on the position In the mouth, that the permanent tooth which re places lt will take. When it is neces sary to extract a baTjy tooth long be fore the permanent tooth should erupt, or when the baby tooth Is badly broken down by decay, the teeth on each side of such a space will cose together, decreasing the . spage that was formerly occupied by tne baby tooth and making it mucn. more difficult for the permanent tooth to come into Its proper placa.
