The fighting man of today consumes dairy foods amounting to 37 ounces of milk daily. consumer groups helping to develop and disseminate the kind' of information needed to build a stronger, more vital America. Personal contacts, educational movies, exhibits, publicity and more than 375 million pieces of educational material have been disseminated. As this educational program has approached its maximum fruition during recent years, so the dairy industry itself has responded to the great need for more and more dairy products. From 1936 to 1939, inclusive, there was an average production of about 104 billion pounds of milk annually in the United States. With mounting war needs the dairy industry rapidly increased its production. In 1942, in spite of labor and equipment shortages, production was lifted to over 119 billion pounds. More Dairy Food in Diet. Some of the most important changes in the American diet in re- cent years comes out increased consumption of dairy products. According to the national dairy council, two food nutrients most likely to be deficient in the human diet are calcium and riboflavin. The bureau of human nutrition and home economics of the U. S. department of agriculture states that both of these are prevalent in the diets in much greater quantities than a few of years ago. These increases, adds the above mentioned bureau, are due to the fact that consumption of milk, ice the Journal of the American Medical association, asserts that when conditions now prevailing in central Europe become known it will be Released by Western Newspaper Union. found that protein starvation is demuch more serious than vitamin MR.

In the case of calcium, the difference is much more marked. One hundred man hours of labor devoted to milk production yields 1,354 grams of calcium. The same time devoted to egg production yields 17 108 grams, to pork production grams, to steers 11 grams and lambs 20 grams. For riboflavin 100 man hours spent in milk production yields 2,008 milligrams. The same time spent in egg production will produce 996 milligrams, in pork production, 419 milligrams; in beef production, 239 millgrams; and to lamb, 563 milligrams. When the production of these essential human nutrients is figured on the basis of efficiency of feed utilization, or the amount of nutrients reproduced per acre devoted to the various kinds of livestock, the dairy cow is equally efficient and in some Cases even more so. It is, of course, true that in the case of some other human nutrients the superiority of the dairy cow is less obvious, but in any complete comparison she stands without a peer, not only in SumtloL?00D NUTRIENTS pAoducedpeiW MAN HOURS oMot PRODUCT Poundi PROTEIN 89 0 56 Qfuvnl CALCIUM 1354 RIBOFLAVIN 2008 108 I 58 42 17 11 y WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO It is does not get you anywhere. what you do that counts.

Milk, ice cream and cheese furnish 75 per cent of all the calcium and 46 per cent of all the riboflavin in the national diet. "Calcium is important to the body as a builder and maintainer of bones and teeth," continues the bureau of home nutrition and home economics. "It is also needed in many of the fluids which govern the body's involuntary activities. Riboflavin promotes growth and is essential for normal nutrition at all ages. Insufficient quantities of riboflavin for any length of time may be followed by digestive disturbances and some types of 'eyestrain' and a lowered general resistance." Europe's Protein Deficiency.

In this same connection, Food Administrator Jones points out first that the total needs for milk and its products for our military, lend-- , lease, and civilian uses are much more urgent than for many other foods. Secondly, the dairy cow is the most efficient converter of livestock food into human food. Third, this is the time when we need that efficient utilization of livestock feeds. Truly, "bossy" is in the war. Her product is recognized as essential in maintaining the of the nation's fighters. It is equally important in maintaining production on the home front. It has contributed greatly toward improving the food habits, the health, and the productivity of the nation. At the same time, the cow is proving herself a, most efficient converter of the already short livestock feeds into well- -' balanced human food. well-bein- g THE FOUNTAIN of the post exchange is a popular place every evening as husky young men in training for war come in for their malted milks.

At that time also, the CIO was highly unpopular. Since then, CIO has not changed, but its political action committee has started spending the $700,000 appropriated for the campaign with some successes in the primaries.

Holman was defeated by a former public member of the War Labor board, Wayne Morse, generally regarded around here as not unfriendly to CIO. The congressional interpretation is that the CIO went into the republican primary, as there was no contest among the democrats, and gave enough votes to defeat Holman, who was not especially popular anyway. $ S make democratic politics their business have coupled these events with Mr. Roosevelt's determination (they think) to run and have thus pulled a blanket over their heads, to do any future business thereunder. Of course, CIO is a minority of a minority, the lesser part of the union labor movement, and these are thinly voted primaries. What force it could bring to bear in an election may be something else again. For the present, it has at least $700,000 and an apparently ruthless determination to exert its fullest political pressure (even opposing at least one democratic representative who has voted with labor on all except two or three remote issues.) Mr. Wallace is a leader of this group, in the sense that he chooses to act like a talking custodian for that residue of votes while Mr. Roosevelt is busy with the war. In dispatching him to China, Mr. R. said he was "a messenger" not a high sounding title (others flying the same route have been called "ambassadors" and "emissaries"), but Mr. Wallace picked up the title proudly in a formal statement. He spoke in the cosmic gradeur of an Oriental mystic with such sentences as: "The future of China belongs to the world, and the world in justice and peace shall belong to China," whatever that means. It would appear wiser for Mr. Roosevelt to stand with Wallace, but allow the party to fight for Rayburn or Barkley if it chooses. The president already has the CIO which has no place else to go, but could gain votes and prestige by pleasing the democratic party men who are at the possibility of Wallace again, but realize Mr. Roosevelt has as close or a closer hold on the democratic delegates to this next convention than he had on the last one when he nominated Wallace against the opposition of every other leader. Senator Truman of Missouri, for instance, came back from Missouri and publicly announced himself for Rayburn. If all this sounds somewhat perplexing, remember it is not new (Lewis having played the CIO role for the second term and the American labor parfy and CIO having played it jointly for the third term which was similarly silently approached.) Otherwise, the story is still all in one man's mind, a mind which even Chairman Hannegan and Barkley in their speeches are careful to say they do not know yet. k faster-actin- g, S POPULAR SENTIMENT UNCHANGED There is no ground for interpreting attitude in the nation as a whole toward CIO (the last measuring of popular sentiment nationally having been reflected in the Montgomery Ward case).
