The Protein Problem By the year 2000, it is es timated that world popula tion will exceed 7 billion. As the imputation grows, so too will the problem of supplying people with adequate food and nutrition particularly with protein, the most impor tant of all nutrients. Technologists estimate that within 30 years, more than !00 tons of protein will be needed annually to fill man's nutritional needs. Pos sibly twice as much will be needed to feed animals. Meat proteins are by far the most popular of all pro teins, and are the most costly to produce. The world popu lation seems to have an in satiable appetite for beef, lamb, pork and other meats. Scientists realize that if our growing population is to be supplied with adequate protein, it may have to come from relatively inexpensive and easily grown vegetable sources. Such unlikely sources as cotton seed, pea nuts, sesame and sunflower seeds, even alfalfa and leaves are being tested for conver sion into nutritious foods. Although not many of these products are now com mercially available, General Foods Corporation has suc- cesiully tested and marketed o institutions such as schools and hospitals a high protein macaroni. The company says it pro vides a prototype of foods we can expect in the future By adding soy flour (an excellent vegetable protein) and corn flour to the wheat normally used to make macaroni, it has twice the protein content of regular macaroni. Also the protein quality is comparable to that of milk, but costs roughly the same as regular macaroni. Fathers shouldn't feel dis couraged when their sons reject their advice. It won't be wasted-years later, the sons will offer it to their own kids. G-T Want Ads Pay Big TO VJ 5L, iH v Thatfe when lower Long Distance rates begin on weekdays.

As the weather warms into spring there is a flurry of re-seeding activity. The purpose of the intentions report is to assist growers in making such further changes in their acreage plan as may appear desirable. The acreage actually planted in 1973 may turn out to be larger or smaller than indicated by reason of weather conditions, price changes, labor supply, financial conditions, the agricultural program, and the effect of this report itself upon farmers' actions. 4 Week emphasizes. The growing menace and cost of crime becomes more serious with every passing year, and the need for grass roots support of year-round crime prevention programs is urgent. Now, as never before, each individual must do some soul-searching to discover if he has been guilty or disregarding the rights and property of others. Or has he been hesitant to get "involved" when his aid might have helped solve or prevent a crime? If the answer to any of these Is "Yes", a shifting of personal priorities is In order. Kvery crime from vandalism and shoplifting to bank robbery and murder should be of concern to all citizens if we don't care, no one else will. Moral degeneration and destruction of organized, law-abiding society is the penalty for conducting lawlessness. Crime prevention is the business of police and law enforcement agencies. They need the support of a concerned citizenry everyday of every week in the year.

This year March 20 marks the official beginning of Spring. The crippling snowstorms and floods which accentuated a harsh winter are fast disappearing. In their place will come light, gentle days filled with flourishing crops and home gardens, children's laughters echoing from playgrounds and trips to the serenity of the countryside, mountains or beach "to get away from it all." Spring is the eternal symbol of renewed life and happiness, with a lesson to teach if man will but listen. In essence, the message is that man's world will be only as good as he makes it. He can follow nature's lead and channel his energies into constructive directions-or he can destroy this planet. As this new season dawns, let us hope that it brings greater freedom, peace and understanding to a troubled world, and inspiration to the human race to rededicate itself to creating a better way of life.
