IODINE Ideally one should get the nec essary amount of Iodine In food and drinklns water. Perhaps Fj some people do. But loaine as it occurs in nature (iodides or compounds of iodine) is so very soluble that it is con stantly dissolV' ed out of the soil and car ried from ele vated regions down the Dr. Brady streams and rivers to the sea. Sea water and all fish and shell-fish from the sea are rich in iodine, whetH consumer raw, cooked, canned, dried smoked or salted. Dried kelp and Irish moss (otherwise known as chondrus and carra geen) contain some iodine. In the Great Lakes basin ( In Canada and in the United States) the soil Is poor in iodine, like wise the drinking water and the food (vegetables, cereals, fruits, milk, eggs, meats) grown on the soil. Hence endemic goitre pre vails in that region of the coun ' try and people living there, as well as livestock, require some regular iodine ration to supple ment the natural iodine in food and water. Since the use of iodized salt Instead of ordinary salt has be come popular in the entire Great Lakes region, the prevalence of simple goitre among school chil dren and older persons has shown a striking decrease. More over the number of operations for all forms of goitre In the large hospitals has diminished. Iodized salt looks, tastes and in every way is the same as ordi nary salt, and 4t costs the same. It contains little If any more Iodine than one gets in, say, can ned salmon probably a pound of canned salmon contains as much iodine as pound of iodized salt. So it la absurd to Imagine any one can detect Iodized salt by its taste or that any one can possibly get too much iodine from iodized salt or that any one can get any 111 effect from iodized salt that or- YANKS L 7,000 HELD IN y Ralph C. Taatawertk ' United Press War Correspondent Manila. Feb. 19 U.R) Seven thousand persons were liberated Saturday when American infan try units stormed the Philippines General hospital in the Ermita section of Manila and wiped out fanatical Japanese defenders. The liberated Included 800 pa tients, including 42 American civilians. The others were resi dents of the district who had taken refuge in the hospital dur ing the fighting. The hospital was taken at noon, after two days of hard fighting, by units of the 148th in fantry of the 37th division, com manded by Lt. Col. Herbert W. Radcllffe of Kenton, O. Hospital Fortified The Japanese had pillboxes at the approaches to the hospital and had fortified several build . ings surrounding the main building. Tanks knocked out the pill boxes and laid down a smoke screen to cover the Infantrymen when they charged the build ings. More than 200 Japanese were killed. E. J.

Wherever you live it is advis able, In my opinion, to use inHlroH salt instead of ordinary salt for all domestic purpose'. I think this is advlsaDie wnemer one takes an iodln ration or not. I am an obstinate cuss when it comes to taking medicine I'll take anything a doctor orders me to take so long as I am under the doctor's care, but aside from that If vnn don't mind. I'll worry along without it except my regular ration ol vitamins, somersaults, belly breathing and iodine. Too many correspondents tell mm how much iodine they take and ask me to approve of it. I cannot approve of the practice of taking any more iodine or iodine compound than the amount mentioned In the Instruc tion for Taking an Iodln Ration. In fact I advise you not to take iodine or any compound of it in medicinal dose unless unaer your physician's direction. The nt nf inriine In the Iodln Ration I recommended for prac tically everybody is not medici nal, but only the nutritive quan tity required to maintain good metabolism and good health. ' QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Young folks and Old Folks Regarding the calcium, vitamins and so forth you recommended for "old timers," would they be of any benefit for a woman now 90 years of age? . .

Kidney Trouble and ether com- CI.ir.ESE HERBS OUIWITIED JAPS The story of how a service man outsmarted the Japanese while working in a Philippine islands prison camp motor pool, was recently published in the Yreka (Cal.) Journal. The young man, Bailey Soule, is a nephew of Dr. A. A. Soule of Medford and the son of Mrs. Andrew Soule of Little Shasta. Calif. A comrade of young Soule, Bob Kirker of Auburn, Cal., wrote Mrs. Soule details of their in ternment, how her son outwitted his captors while presumably "working" in the motor pool and how, in spite of adversities, laughed and sang and kept his fellow prisoners in better spirits. "He and other men had to work in a Jap motor pool in Davao for about a year," Kirker wrote. "Naturally, none of them wanted to but they knew they had to anyhow so they made the best of it. They ate better and got much better treatment than the rest of the men. "Bailey used to divide the week into sections. One day he would tear down carburetors and see how many parts he could lose. Another day would be mu sic appreciation day and he would fix one truck and then long and sing. They never did ac complish anything there. They would fix one true kand then take parts oft of it to fix an other. Orchestra Formed "In Malaybalay he had an or chestra and played the clarinet and trumpet. While at the Davao motor pool he got some string some place and made a ukulele out of a coconut shell and some camphor wood, I think, for the neck. "Of course, you know what a sense of humor he had. He used to sit around by the hour and keep us in stitches all of the time. He was always in good spirits." Both Soule and Kirker were on the Japanese ship transferring prisoners between islands when it was torpedoed by a United States submarine in the Philip pine sea last September. Soule was not seen again, but Kirker was one of 83 men rescued. One of his companions was Sgt. BUI Lorton of Medford, now home on a month's furlough after being hospitalized in Australia before returning to this country. Kirker was still hospitalized at the time of writing to Mrs. Soule of her son. . GOVERNOR ARGUES Sacramento, Feb. 19 (U.R) Gov. Earl Warren today took Is sue with a statement of Califor nia Medical Association officials that the compulsory health in surance, he has proposed would be too costly. The first crude pocket lighter appeared early in the 1800'r. It consisted of a vial of sulphuric acid and a chemically treated splinter which limited when dip ped into the bottle.
