But as the charter now nation veto clause, any discussion any consideration of the matter whatever could have been prevented by Russia, had the Dictator of all the Russias been so disposed. So imagine what a feeble instrument in the cause of world peace the UNO, as at present constituted, really is, when even the consideration of an important international dispute, can not be allowed, if any one of the Big Five see fit to oppose it. a e e e THIS situation, however absurd, should not result in n nil minl rliartAim.irrrtmnnf Tr... ds.,.. m.m....... ill aii.y icnv uifiLituaciiiviik, x H oiuiv ptVlcos in any PEACE organization so soon after the close of a world-shattering war, must be expected.

FOOD FAKER THE Quoting a paragraph from a book about eating by a fellow who claims to be an authority on nutrition, reader asks whether it is true what the "autho r i t y" says about the danger of c e rtain food c o m b 1 n a tions, such as orange or grapefruit or their juices taken In the Dr. Brady same meal with starches such as cereal, toast, rolls, etc. It has been so long since this particular query came up that I had begun to think the fakers were finding poor pickings nowadays and getting Into some other racket. The nation that starch will not digest in the presence of arid is a nineteenth century fancy. The truth is that in the healthy person digestion of starch begins in the mouth dur ing mastication (I said a heal thy person, not a toothless one) and continues for half an hour or more after the food has en tered the stomach. Anyway there Is only one rule a healthy person or an in valid need follow (if not under medical care) in regard to food combinations. I: doesn't make a particle of difference how strange or unsuitable the com bination may seem to Tom or Dick if Harry likes it or vice versa. Whatever combination or mixture of foods appeals to your taste or appetite is the right combination for you.

Oddly enough the paragraph the reader quotes from the self styled "authority on nutrition" makes no mention of "mucus forming"effects, although the charlatan does get in the unual glib allusion to "collitis". No physiologist knows what food, if any, forms mucus. No physi cian knows. Only the self-styled "nutrition authority", food spec ialist" or "diet expert" knows that, and of course his gullible customers. This is physiology and no one can deny it.

Horry Bridges, president of the powerful CIO Longshoreman's and Warehouseman's union, pre dicted tonight that the vote of his 30,000 west coast members to strike coastwise shipping by April 1 would be "overwhelming if not unanimous." Strike balloting, expected to be completed by Feb. 20, now is underway among the longshore men after waterfront employers suspended enntract negotiations In what Bridges charged tonight was a "stall" to "save employers thousands every day during ar bitration." In a radio broadcast (ABC), Bridges occused the employers of failure to comply with a Na tional War Labor board direc tive ordering pay increases ef fective Oct. 1, 1944. Bridges said the employers now owe ap proximately $8,000,000 In back wages on the order. Bridges said union wage de mands were reduced to bring them in line with the arbitrator's award of $1.50 straight time hourly for east coast longshore men but that the proposal still was "unonswered."

DEVELOPMENTS Developments in the United Nations' organization, state youth services, federal housing legislation and other topics of current interest were featured at sessions of the League of Women Voters sectional conference held yesterday at the Holland hotel. Sixty-five women attended the luncheon at noon. Miss Manche Langley, Port land, deputy district attorney for Multnomah county and a vice president of the state league, and Dr. Edna Landros, faculty mem ber of the University of Oregon, Eugene, left for the north this morning after making the prin cipal talks for the meeting. Dr. Landros addressed the luncheon meeting, speaking on UNO. Reviewing provisions of the Wagner housing bill, Miss Lang ley stated that the national League of Women Voters en dorsed the bill and would work for its passage. Discussing state housing problems, Miss Langley declared that this tied in with the league's survey of youth services since inadequate hous ing is considered one of the con tributing causes of Juvenile de linquency. One of the major pro jects of the state league this year is a state-wide survey 'of Oregon services and agencies dealing with youth. Mrs. Dolph Phipps, organiza tion chairman of the league an nounced that an orientation meeting for new members and women interested in Joining the league will be held Thursday at the Girls' Community club at 2 p. m. and that the history, na ture of the league and purpose of the non-partisan political or ganization would be explained Mrs. Justin Smith, president of the Jackson County league, presided over the meetings.

Jan. 26 (U.R) Felix Gouin, modest 62 year old socialist leader, formed a new three-party coalition cabinet to day after six days ot political crisis that followed the surprise resignation of Gen. Charles De Gaulle as head of France's pro visional government. Thi government is composed of six communists, six members of the popular republican move ment (MRP), six socialists, and one none-party. Georges Bidault was retained as foreign minister. The -men named by Gouin face the difficult task of giving France a new constitution before general elections next May, and bringing the country out of acute economic and financial difficulties. BAY AREA MEAT TO San Francisco, Jan. 26 (U.R) Approximately 700 AFL meat cutters and butchers voted three to one today to return to work Monday at the government-seized plants of Swift.
