This situation Is al-!-v luted somewhat by efforts of various authorities to pre sent a commonsense scientific perspective. One of those on the side of the reasonable approach Is Dr. Frederick Stare, head of Harvard University's Department of Nutrition since 19-17. Dr. Stare has a word to say about food additives that is encouraging. He says. "I would like to diei the notion that our foods are increasingly tampered with iri undesirable, unhealthy ways ... "As a physician and a student of nutrition for the last 30 veers. 1 am convinced that food additives are far safer in actual use than the basic natural foods, themselves, because of improper food preparation, poor food habits and overeat-in-. The very, very few Instances of harm from excessive or careless use of additives, or from their unanticipated effects, are overwhelmed by their many beneficial effects." Vital statistics, with respect to longevity, general physical well beinjr, to say nothing of the rising number of six-footers in our population, bear out Doctor Stare's convictions. Old Cure Still Works Over the past quarter of a century' or more, people have been taught that economists and governmental planners can control business cycles. That has been the crux of the "new economics". One of the main troubles today may be that people are becoming unsold on the Invincibility of the man aged economy. As the Spokane, Washington, Valley Herald expresses it, "We have tolerated governmental excesses which have led to inflation under the assumption that economics had now become a manageable science that governmental action and policies could be used to speedup or slowdown bus iness activity. This principle remains to be proved." Business has been slowed down according to the indices, but not so much by the practice of new economics it seems, as by a dose of good old-fashioned belt tiehtenine that has appeared to do little so far to stem the inflation psychology inspired by the new economic theories we have lived with for so many years. The American Red Cross has asked the world's Red Cross societies to form a solid front in demanding that North Viet nam meet humanitarian standards in the treatment of Amer ican prisoners. It pledged that the ARC would "pursue with out interruption or abatement every effort to bring about humane treatment of prisoners of war to which they are en titled under the statutes of international law and the die tales of moral decency." Individual citizens can aid by ask ing their congressmen to support such demands now.

Gonty home, members learned to choose the rliiht herb The right herb Is the one you like best", Mrs. Charles Heard reporting from the book "How to Crow Herbs for Gourmet Cooking" by Fred crick Anderson, gave the prov ing ground fur learning the taste of each herb to know which Is preferred. The sugges tion is to add 'i tsp. of choied leaves to soft boiled eggs. The author quoted Charlemagne as saving "Herbs are the friend of physicians and the. praise of cooks," The book gives the background for each herb as well as how to grow it and the uses. Many of Die herbs known before the time of Christ were used medicinally. Herbs which the author says reasonably "beginner proof and most indispensable are: basil (rhymes with dazzle) chives, dill, oregano, sage, sum mer savory, tarragon and thyme (pronounced time). They all prefer a sunny spot Herbs are used In pinches. Just as much as you can pick up between thumb and forefinger. They are used to enhance the flavor. Twice the amount of herbs is needed of fresh leaves as the dried ones. Add an herb to soups, stews. roasts, vegetables. sal a d s, fore the introduction of tea from China the English drank sage tea. Use tarragon In vine gar, very good In mixed salads. Use dill In spiced beets, in sauerkraut, on potato salad, with peas. Use chlvea anywhere you think a little onion flavor belongs. "By using herbs In your cook ing, you can make a delicacy of the most lackluster dish. The difference Is especially reward ing when you've grown the herbs yourself," Mrs. Heard said.
