Wood, professor of public health at University, In an Interview granted the United Press today. "Public health," Dr. Wood declared, "Is directly determinable by the general -correspondence of the weights of the Individuals to scientific standards of weight charts." Dr. Wood declared that a few exception! would not effect the general' of his statement to any appreciable degree. "Social diseases, tuberculosis, consumption, cancer and a few other diseases are such suffered by so few persons," he said, "that the effect upon the condition of general public hea th Is practically negligible." Dr.

Wood's statements were given In conjunction th an article whlcn he has written for a new volume called "Your Weight and How to Control It," to be published tomorrow, In elaborating his statement, he said, "A slight degree of over or under weight for a person does not Indicate that he is not healthy, over weight or underweight Is a prevalent condit on In any section or community it will be found that the general hea th conditions are low. For example, In crwded tenement districts it will be found that most persons are decidedly under weight. In such moreover, tho general health 1s well under average. Obesity, while it to not to be found generally in any one group, Is nevertheless wide spread and has a definite re'atlon to the general public health." Dr. Wood supported the statements of other professional men whose articles appear in the book by statin? that weight reduct on constituted an actual menace to the country.

He cited examples of large groups of high school girls between the ages of 12 and 18 who are today forego-ing luncheon or one of the other meals In their efforts to attain or maintain a "boyish" form. Such practices, he declares, are serving only to undermine the general health of the country, and seriously Jeopardize these girls' future chances for motherhood.
