Nutrition in Defense
Outstanding Factor
Says National Head
"Nutrition is not new to us nor
would it be new to thousands of
others participating in our nutrition
program; however it has not arous
ed the general interest and general
participation that such a program
should," said Dr. Helen Mitchell,
national defense nutritionalist be
fore the Oregon State Nutrition
council in Portland last week end,
as reported by Mrs. Bruce Stewart
of this city, an attendant.
Mrs. Stewart reported further the
chiefs message:
We have been satisfied to be just
average to correct disease when it
occurred, but not to devote ourselves
wholeheartedly to the betterment of
the human race. If it were not pos
sible to reach an optimum, change
could not be made. That it has been
possible to change has been proved
by the average height and weight of
soldiers. Today's soldier is one inch
taller and fifteen pounds heavier
than his father who fought in the
last war. Further proof that change
is possible has also been evidenced
by the general improvement of the
health of the boys since they enter
ed camp last year.
Miss Mitchell explained that the
nutrition problem in this country is
not obvious. There are few diet de
ficiency diseases such as scurvy, pal
legra, or beri-beri. The trouble, says
Dr. Mitchell, is that too many of us
don't feel up to par. "How many
times have you got the answer, 'Oh,
so-so,' when you've inquired about
the health of a friend?" The great
est efficiency could never be ex
pected from a nation of people who
are tired and have poor morale.
Dr. Mitchell attributes this fati
gue and poor morale to hunger not
obvious hunger that can be satis
fied by taking in just any food, but
a hidden hunger that satisfaction
doesn't guide. Instincts don't guide
humans to proper food as it guides
animals to adequate food. The hu
man animal has this instinct cover
ed by tradition and habit. Our in
stincts guide us to quantity and not
to quality. "We need calories in
good company," says Dr. Mitchell.
Dr. Mitchell classified the mal
nourished people into four groups:
The low income group, the middle
income group, the upper income
group and the live-alone class.
The lew-income group has the
combined problem of limited funds
and limited knowledge of proper
foods. The middle group has a bud
get large enough to have correct
foods, but tends to spend more on
luxuries than on necessities. The
upper income group is subject to
fads and prices. They find it easier
to depend on vitamin concentrates
than taking the time to change food
haits. This group also has a tenden
cy to take on extra meals "put
calories in poor company." The live
alone group tends to neglect their
diet because it is easier. They eat
out, and few restaurants serve pa
trons nutritiously. However, steps
are being taken in the restaurant
world to give more nutritious fare.
"Kowledge of proper nutrition is
not enough, we must put nutrition
to work," Dr. Mitchell told us. She
compared the advance of mechanics
over nutrition in practical applica
tion. The average layman can use
the most complicated machine with-

work each individual (those who
