A WORD TO CLASS A NECROTICS
I have nothing whatever to say to
Class B Neurotic except how'r'ya get
ting by?
Class B Neurotic are Just gullible,
misguided people
who take some
quack's fake di
agnosis too seri
ously and drift

ed "nerves." Once

"nerves are not
usurping all hi
thoughts.
A diet which just falls short of
adequacy, without producing out
spoken disease (such as beriberi, pel
lagra, xerophthalmia or osteomalacia)
may lead to chronic gaatrltl and en
teritis with , Impairment of neuro
muscular control of the Intestine.
Indeed there 1 good reason to believe
that chronic vitamin B deficiency la
responsible for many obscure. Indef
inite digestive disorders which de
stroy the happiness of the patient and
baffle the physician. We are accus

taken this entire paragraph almost
verbatim from McLester" "Nutrition
and Diet," Saunders, 1934.)
From Mellanby's "Nutrition and
Disease" (Oliver and Boyd, London,
1034) I quote:
"I shall now briefly describe

Includes 1 to a pints of milk

Mellanby also state that the ex
perimental facta adduced make It
possible at least to claim that the
nervous system la within the pale of
nutrition. He contends that "the ac
tual degenerative change in the
nerves (In cases of beriberi, multiple
neuritis) are really due to a vitamin
A deficiency, while the prostration,
weakness and other nerve symptom
are the result of vitamin B defic
iency." There you are. A for nerve degen

I'm Just mentioning these scien
tific facts to encourage you Class A
Neurotics, especially if you think your
"nerves" are "weak." Mellanby's con
tention corroborates the advice I have
repeatedly given, namely that the
most satisfactory resulte are generally
obtained by taking an optimal ration
of all the vitamins, rather than a
large dose of any one or two vitamins
alone. That high vitamin A diet Mel

A but also B. C, D, E and O, though
principally A perhaps.

WASHINGTON. June 14. (AP)
Bod weather plus wrong forecasts by
both government and company ex
perts and faulty work by ground per
sonnel were blamed today by the de
partment of commerce for the TWA
air crash of May 6 near Macon. Mo.,
which killed Senator Bronson Cutting
of New Mexico and four others.
The report, completed after the
taking of more than 007 pages of tes
timony, also found that five viola
tions of air service regulations were
"Indicated" and contributed to the
accident.
"Such violations will be filed
against the company." it said.
In a statement accompanying the
report, Secretary Roper said
"I am convinced that the accident
was duo chiefly to bad weather con
ditions. The two pilots. Bolton and
Greeson, made every possible effort
to land their passengers safely, but
were unable to do so because of the
prevailing fog and darkness."

used to "rcnovize" the store amounted to $860. Projects of this type

RUSSIANS GAPE AT
SUBWAY STATIONS
MOoCOW (UP) Moscow's new
subway, subject of much ballyhoo tn
recent months, has been opened to
crowds of Moscow dwellers and work
ers. For weeks, ever si no? the boaids
were removed from the stations, cur
ious crowds hung about the en
trances, peering through the glass
windows for a glimpse of the modern
wonder that has come to their city.
At night morle shots were taken of
the stations under the glare of arc
lights.
To date more than 50,000 people
have been given "Joy rides" in the
new tunnels, through the brilliantly
lighted and colorfully decorated sta
tions. These "Joy rides' are meted out In
the form of prizes to factory and
office workers who distinguish them
selves in their Jobs.

they run beneath the former strong

WASHINGTON-SALE
TAX LEVY UPHELD
VANCOUVER. Wash ., June 1 4.
1AP) Superior Court Judge George
B. Simpson today upheld the so
called compensating feature of the
Washington soles tnx In ruling for
the defendant In the cose of the
Vancouver Oil company versus the
Washington state tax commission:
The oil company had contended
the portion of the soles tox. law
which made mandatory the payment
of a tax on oil goods purchased out
side of the state, for use within Its
confines, was unconstitutional.
The Judge ruled the soles levy con
stituted on excise tax Instead of a
property tax. and therefore did not
come under Washington's 40-mill
limitation meoMire. and that the
collection of tux on outtat goods,
was not a burden to Interstate com
merce, but merely was a protection
for merchants along the borders.

advises.
He was. exhausted after four days

and Oklahoma by the hundreds. One
person telephoned from Kansas City.
The remedies include: Press ears
against head for. two minutes; hold
tongue out for a minute; drink water
through ' linen ' handkerchief; pjace
brown paper bag over face for five
i minutes; drink pineapple Juice; held
head back and swallow water slowly;
turn backward somersault; take
flight in airplane.
An unknown sympathizer tele
graphed from Ada. Okla.. that OH
leRplc drink black hen broth. He did
and the attacks became intermittent
and soon stopped.
Gillespie said he always would be
grateful to a little black hen.
