Its results are much farther reaching than is usually realized even by physi cians. The Richards Institute of the Pennsylvania State College made a study covering 2511 adults and children. The survey covered a period of six years. It is said to be one of the most thorough ever made. The con clusion is that only one person In a thousand escapes malnutri tion. Only eight were free of tooth decay. The weight of 17 was under par. Sixty per cent of the children were more than six months retarded in skeletal srowth. In fact the bones of a large majority of both adults I and children were not properly i mineralized. Such bone defects, are linked with deficiencies in proteins, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D in particular. The study of nutrition is one of the Important subjects of Naturo- pathy.

P. at San Francisco) An Imperial head quarters spokesman asserted to day that Americas counter-of fensive against Japan has "abso lutely no chance of success" and that the United States has sacri ficed the "majority of her main fleet" in regaining Guadalcanal. General Yahagi, In an article in the Yomurl Hochl, said Amer ica s counter-offensive had re sulted only in keeping the small Island of Guadalcanal, which he compared to "a chip of wood In a wide ocean. Yahagi said that to keep Guadalcanal, America had lost the greater part of its fleet and the greater part of her picked navy men who were dispatched to this area since August last year." How long Is the United States going to take to capture hundreds of Japanese land bases: how many ships and how many men is this going to take?" the spokesman asked. He answered his own ques tion: "It would take American forces many times stronger in a campaign that would take over 100 years.

Disher, Jr., while serving with a United State landing force in the capacity of war correspondent, at the harbor of Oran during the early morning hours of Nov. 8, 1942, distinguished himself by extraordinary heroism and meritorious performance of duty against an armed enemy during the attack on that port. "In the face of withering enemy fire, although several times' wounded, Disher remained at his poet on the vessel which was taking him ashore and continued to report for the public press lucid, accurate and detailed account of the action, in which the greater part of the military and nav 1 personnel aboard the .ship became casualties. "After being ordered to abandon shv, Disher swam to shore and, although again wounded four times, continued to perform his duty in an exemplary manner. With complete disregard for his personal safety, Disher displayed great devotion to duty and rendered meritorious public service by recording the details of the attack on the harbor of Oran." The conduct of Leo S. Disher at Oran typifies the spirit of the entire, far-flung corps of United Press combat-sone correspondents.' Upon their determination, their courage, their expertness rests the ability of the United Press to provide The World's Best Coverage of the World's Biggest News. Follow United Press dispatches in Th.
