More Six-Footers
Highly. publicized, scare stories flowing across the coun
try from hearings In Washington concerning everything from
the pill to artificial sweeteners have made hypochrondlacs
out of a lot of otherwise normal people. 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.
