Savages Know Best Diet Declares Dental Surgeon rN8 IDE 8 AVAOBfl 2 ool head INDIANAPOLIS, May 1, (AP) Primitive peoples, Dr. Weston Price believes, are "sturdier and enjoy gen erally better health" because of their Inherent knowledge of a proper diet. 'They could teach modern people things we ara discovering only grad ually," the Cleveland, O., dental sur geon, a speaker here before the Indi ana Dental . association convention, said. "But they hold us In contempt because we look upon them as sav ages." Dr. Price described experiences among the 27 types of primitive races In the world he has visited. "In aome tribes, I found cereals higher In mineral content, particu larly calcium, than known by us moderns. They know the science of diet and even the science of Innocu-, latlon against disease and Infection.! "They think of us as fools 'because of many of the things we do and our refusal to accept their advice. He told of one tribe which sent na tive living high In the mountains to lower areas for water hyacinth con taining a high content of Iodine for use in treatment of goiter. He said the tribe had been doing so far gen orations and added that modern science has recognized the value of Iodine In combatting goiter only In comparatively recent years. "I found that even In the Indian tribes of the extreme north areas," he continued, "the fact was recognized that potential mothers should re ceive a certain diet before they were even married." He blamed absence of ancient cus toms for improper diet which has caused facial deformities through de cay of teeth. . H. D. OF ROSEBURG DIES Mrs. H. D.
