Such "black iilr'iifrViiMiirl and blue" BLACK AND One article you printed long ago is missing from my scrap book and I have been hoping you might ten more of the subject some time. It is about the ap nea r a nee of black and blue marks on the Or BradT marks appear without evident cause or follow ing trifling Injury when the In riivlrlual has scurvy. Manifest scurvy (scorbutus, as doctors call in Is a nutritional deficiency HI.PHK8 occurring most frequent lv In this country, in Infants who are fed too exclusively with canned or sterilized or pasteur trpri milk and not supplied with a daily ration of tomato Juice (fresh or commercial canned), orange Juice or other fresh fruit Juice. Then a less manifest survy not rarely develops in a person, youn or old. whose diet is too rigidly restricted for weeks or months, either from lack of pro per food or from ill-advised ef fort to reduce or to avoid foods the uninformed deems "undl gcstible." "mucus - forming," "acid" or "too coarse." This latter mild scurvy may go unrecognized. It accounts for false suspicions or open charges of abuse or brutality in institu tions where inmates or patients are fed too exclusively with "gro ceries." sterilized or cooked or pasteurized or canned food, and too little fresh fruit, fresh greens or vegetables are supplied to pre vent scurvy. Scurvy, due to Insufficient In take of vitamin C (chemically known as ascorbic acid), is not tha only explanation for the, ten dency to get such 'black and blue" mnrks from trifling injury. Another nutritional deficiency BLUE MARKS among all classes of people In the United States and Canada may contribute to the same ten dency to bleed under the skin (for it Is bleeding from minute vessels under the skin that pro duces the discoloration, just as in "black eye"). This is calcium deficiency. The refined diet of most Nnrth Americans Is more likely to be deficient in calcium than In any other essential ele ment. One characteristic effect of calcium deficiency Is pro longed clotting time tendency to bleed too easily. So the appearance of black and blue marks or spots, or min ute extravasations of blood un der the skin or perhaps under the covering of eyeball or under mucous mpmbrane, without ap parent Injury, indicates (as doc tors say) Immediate large in crease in intake of vitamin C, calcium and of course vitamin D to Insure assimilation of the cal cium. By James E. Roper United Press War Correspondent Llvergnana, Italy, Oct. 17 (U.R) A merlcan infantry and armor rolled Into Livergnano to day a village of caves and corpses, a town without a single house Intact. The white gravel of the main road was stained brown by blood from German and American dead. In one tiny room on the outskirts of town were 16 Ameri can bodies, while German dead were strewn through the caves and tumbled down houses. This barrier, blocking the highway to Bologna, was known to the Germans as the Casesar line and the doughboys who took it said it was tougher than their section of the Gothic line. At the bases of cliffs, rising 50 to 100 -feet on each side of the town, were a chain of caves, now blackened and bloodied by five days of American artillery fire. They were natural positions and the Germans used them craftily. Women Will Decide Presidential Race Avers Clare Luce On Thursday, the Germans permitted two companies of Yanks to creep into town and up the long ramp of the 'cliff. Then they opened with machine guns from both ends of the ramp. Some of the trapped doughboys leaped over the 50-foot embank ment and lay crumpled at the bottom with broken legs and ankles. Second Lt. Alton Gloor, Gon zales, Tex., headed one column up the ramp. He charged to-J wards a German machine gun, i firing his rifle from the hip. ! Tracers from the German ma chine gun lit up Gloor like a ball of fire and put eight holes through his field Jacket, but he kept on going and wasn't scratched," a wounded soldier reported later. Gloor killed all three German machine gunners. Then with some of his company, he over came four more automatic weap ons before bursting to the top of the cliff and Into a church where two Germans were captured. Pittsburgh, Oct. 17 (U.R) Rep. Clare Boothe Luce, of Connecti cut, asserted today that the wom en of America will decide the presidential election and that they will vote for Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, the Republican candi date. "Women," Mrs. Luce told a press conference, "will vote from here ou. for an efficient admin istration which will bring their boys home and put them back into employment." Mrs. Luce, here to address a Republican rally at Syria Mosque tonight, expressed the opinion that women are "better voters" than men because they have the ability to go to the heart of an issue, while the men clutter their thinking with extraneous mat ters not important to the ques tion at hand.
