I had begun to think the fakers

The nation that starch will
not digest in the presence of

healthy person digestion of
starch begins in the mouth dur

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

would if taken alone.
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.

Thymus
Would It be dangerous for a three-weeks-old

-Just how effective It is, I don't know
the entire question of enlarged
thymus, and the socalled "thymo
lymphatte state" Is confused. In
many instances the enlargement
shrinks spontaneously in weeks or
months, whether X-ray treatment Is
given or not. Many newborn Infants
have enlarged thymus (shown by
X-ray) yet no symptoms attribute
thereto.
Faulty Nutrition

A Good Whipping Might Help
My son gives his three-year-old
child wine to drink and laughs when
the child behaves In a silly way alter
it. What Is your opinion? (M. W.)
Answer You might give your son
a few lashes with the whip figura

San Fronclsco, Jan. 26 (U.P.)
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.
T
Par's. 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.

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. Armour and oth
er struck packing houses.
They rejected a plea by a rep
resentative of the CIO Packing
house workers union to remain
out until wage negotiations with
the two major companies were
completed.
The plea was pot viewed as
possible defiance of the CIO na
tional order returning 200,000
workers to their Jobs since the
local rank and file meets tonight
