PAfiE FOUK SAN BERNARDINO DAILY SUN. THURSDAY, JULY 17, 1941 ising Food Prices Force Fixed-Income Group to Hunt for Economies TIME-TESTED DEVICES HEL I for the Mrs. (By Associated Press) wLleBtBBaaVaMbataMlaiWbssst i Careful Purchasing, Starting Vegetable Garden, Driving Car Slowly Will Assist By PAUL GESNER And JOHN BECKLEY NEW YORK, July 16. (The Spe-cial News Sen-ice) Food prices are advancing. If you have been in a grocery store recently, buying eggs or butter, where general rises appear quickest, you already know that Food prices are moving upward because: 1.

Congresi recently voted higher parity loans for farmers on their major crops, such as wheat and cot ton. 2. The defense program has given more people jobs, fattened pay en velopes and increased the sales and bettered the sales outlook for food, thus encouraging not only speculation but also mark-ups by both wholesalers and retailers. 3. The government, which for some years has been subsidizing farmers' incomes, has made no sweeping attempt to restrain me food price advances.

CAUGHT IN MIDDLE Meantime, while industrial wages on the one hand and farm prices on the other are rising, the person with a fixed income is caught in the middle. There are, however, certain time-tested things the fixed-income person can do to take the sting out of rising living costs. One is a dinner table maneuver keeping the outgo for food under control. Holding food costs in line is a Job Beein shopping for food more carefully. Get out the cook book.

Plan meals with less expensive but equally nutritious dishes. Watch meat costs. Many cheaper cuts of meat contain exactly the came amount of body-building strength as the more expensive ones. Watch grocery prices. Buy fresh vegetables in season those which because they are plentiful are the most reasonably-priced.

Keen a balanced, healthy table fare for the family, however. Just try to shop wisely, with the idea of getting the best food value for the family money available. PLANT VEGETABLES If you have an extra piece of back-yard ground, plant a vegetable garden. Plan an extensive garden for next year. Clothing: Here both Mr.

and Mrs. Fixed-la coma American can join hand3 in taking the sting out of living costs. Buy better-grade clothing. This applies to men's suits, worn' en's apparel and children's wear, right down through the shoes. Better-grade apparel is cheaper in the long run if it is of superior, longer-lasting quality.

A $40 men's suit that will wear three years actually costs less than a $30 suit that will wear two years Good shoes, with good uppers, priced slightly above the cheapest trrades. can be re-soled over and over again. When buying men's shirts, under wear, socks, keep durability as well as looks in mind. CUT BILLS Anklet socks for utility home and daytime sports wear can cut worn' en's hosiery bills sharply. Other items present "long run' savings possibilities, too.

Household furnishings: Buy chairs, tables, rugs less frequently but buy stuff that -will last longer, Automobiles: Driving at reason' able speeds will reduce both gaso line consumption and tire wear. Home accessories: Keep old gar den tools, kitchen utensils, rubber hose, sprinklers, vacuum cleaners floor lamps and general hardware in trim. F.epalr if Buy only essential new items, and only when needed. Driver Overcome by Fumes of Dynamite SANTA CRUZ, July 16. Ma rion Steele, assistant truck driver at the Felton forestry station, was overcome by fumes from smoulder ing sticks of dynamite he found while fighting a fire.

Steele and other fire fighters were battling a blaze at the old Kober vineyard at Ben Lomond. Steele saw several sticks of dynamite smoldering at the base of an old vine stump. Quickly he gathered them up and raced to a nearby stream and plunged them into th water before the gases overcame lilm. Fellow-workmen brought Steele to a hospital here where he was treated for poisoning. His condition today was good.

VITAMIN DISCOVERY The City Desk has a grand time. The syndicated stuff comes through and it makes some swell stories. Miracle Modern -s- Medical Science S-? has made a new tfvJ? -Jrb 1 vt Tit era nas announc-f ed before a very solemn body of scientists that Vitamin XYZ is just the thing to change a man into a woman or a woman into a man! Another an- nounces that he mm has the particular DR. LOVELL vitamin which will make milk or take it away. Another has a cure for dizziness, a cure for blindness cure for gall stones, a cure for sterility, a cure for neuritis, etc.

Perusing the various daily papers, I have seen about eight stories dur ing the past month good stories-good reading material about the new discoveries of science. From the time of the discovery of the first vitamin a little more than twenty years ago it has been a highly fertile source of research and investigation. It is somewhat the same as if a tribe of Aborigines from the wilds of Australia were suddenly to discover an automobile. A hundred of them break down the automobile. Each one pro claims a magnificent discovery: "Here, I have a spark plug without which an automobile cannot run!" Here, I have a carburetor!" An other finds a valve or a clutch plate or a cylinder head or a block.

Each proclaims it has the most vital part of the machine a great new dis covery! Food Is not simple. It is far more complex than an automobile. Even the simple starch cell is made of innumerable molecules. The chemistry is highly complicated and pro found. Now, what happens? The chemical researchers break it up into as many constituent parts as they possibly can.

As each makes a new discovery, it is announced as the central cog in the mighty machine the thing which makes the works go round. It is repeated again, again and again. The public is befuddled. "Take Vitamin This and Vitamin That!" Buy foods with added vitamins! Take vitamins whole! Take vitamins in extract!" What is the source of these vitamins? It all comes from the simple automobile, or the whole food. From what source do you think it is produced? Of course, It is there all the time.

It has been in the food from the day it started to grow, either in the plant or in the animal which, has consumed the plant. That we all need the vitamins is evident. That there is no particular element which is a cure-all, which makes the human automobile run, is also evident. "Care of the Body" has consistently kept its course. It has never lost sight of the totality of this ma- chine.

It has not gone off on tan gents. It has not concurred with the new discoveries that "Here, if you will only take Vitamin This or Vitamin That, your troubles will be over and your problem solved. "Care of the Body has consist ently kept its course, that the only good food is the food which comes closest to the way nature made it, that the less we cook, bake, fry, preserve, pickle, spice, add or subtract, or chemically adulterate, the better that food is. The finest food is as close to the way nature made it, as is possible, that all of our re search and investigation are merely microcosms of a gigantic whole. If we trust in living nature, we cannot go wrong and we shall not go up blind alleys in the search for the magie fountain of youth, labeled Vitamin A to Vitamin Z.

Anti-War Stand Made By 2,000 Ministers (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, July 16. Pledging themselves not to use their minis try to "bless, sanction or support war," more than 2,000 protestant ministers and educators have signed a statement opposing America's "present threatened the Fellowship of Reconciliation announced today. The Rev. John Nevin secre tary of the fellowship, said the peace covenant had been signed by six presidents of educational insti tutions, five bishops, four deans of cathedrals, and scores of pastors in cities from Portland, Maine, to San Diego, California. National Unity Week In action during recent maneuvers.

(Wide Proclaimed by Olson (By Associated Press) SACRAMENTO, July 16. Governor Olson today proclaimed the week of July 20 to 26 "National Unity week" in California and declared the "preservation of our free way of life demands singleness of purpose and the concentration of our effort on national defense." He requested that "all citizens rise above personal or group inter ests to defend the communities welfare," asked state, county, munici pal and other groups to provide channels for expressions of unity, and urged that the flag be displayed at proper hours during the entire week.

Today was payday tor Ai doiiar-a-year men in the defense program, but only 13 of them had worked a full year and were entitled to a whole dollar. The rest got paid, ou a pro rata basis, from 2 cents up.

The checks covered the fiscal year which ended June 30 and the treasury computed them at the rate of 8 1-3 cents a month for the time each executive was on the payroll. The total of all the payments was only $126. Many office of production man agement executives received their annual compensation without cere mony but John D. Biggers, production director, and E. R.

Stettinlus priorities director, arranged for public distribution of checks to all recipients in their sections. Neither William S. Knudsen, O.P.M. director, nor Sidney Hill man, associate director, received a check. They hold office under a 1917 law which provides that they serve without compensation.

That exempts them from an old law for bidding the government to accept the free services of any Individual. The smallest check for 2 cents- went to Randolph Paul of the office of price administration, but he also received another for an even $1. The larger was for the year ended June 30, the other for the one week he served during the preceding fiscal year. 4 The air corps reports that the flying cadet3 require about 18,000 tons of fuel yearly. Air miles per month, figuring six to the gallon, sometimes reach 3,000,000.

FRANCIS overlooking UNION SQUARE AIRPLANES FDR BRITAIN SENT THROUGHMIAMI Some of Craft Being Flown to Gibraltar as 'Jumping Off Place' Moved South (By United Press) MIAMI, July 16. The Miami Herald said today in a dispatch from its Washington bureau that "the new route to Britain for American-made bombers is through Miami, and has been for the last 26 days" some of them flying 4,000 miles direct to Gibraltar. The dispatch reported that most of the planes are being flown from Miami to "a field east of Bathurst in British Gambia, (West Africa) and from that point, directly to Gibraltar," adding that some have gone direct to Gibraltar, while others have stopped over for refueling at Natal, Brazil.

"It was estimated Tuesday that in excess of 200 planes have been flown over this route within the last three weeks," the Herald said. "It was reported that many of these planes did not go to the Brit ish isles but arrived in time to par ticipate in the successful campaign in Syria." TO AVOID DAKAR The Herald said the routes taken by the bombers and- commercial transport planes requisitioned from United States airlines had been kept secret until revealed in Washington by Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles. "It was pointed out three weeks ago that some of them were flying over Dakar, French port in Senegal, and the fear was expressed that the Vichy government might fire on these ships," the dispatch reported. "However, the airplanes now going through British Gambia take the sea route to Gibraltar and do not cross French territory," the newspaper added. GOOD WEATHER Selection of Miami to replace Bot- wood, Newfoundland, as the "jumping off place" for bomber deliveries was said to have been influenced by the good year-round flying conditions here.

FATHER OF 12 CHILDREN REGRETS DEFERMENT, WOULD ENJOY ARMY (By Associatedi Press) PITTSBURGH, July 16. Samuel Howard Isenberg, at 35 the father of 12 children, was disappointed today over receiving quick deferment from army service because of his long list of dependents.

Reports spread today that Field Marshal Hermann Goering, Nazi No. 2, was in disgrace in Germany after quarreling with Adolf Hitler over the German war on Russia. Die Zeitung, anti-Nazi German language newspaper published in Britain, asserted that the reports were correct. Goering was said to haVe urged Hitler to build up air strategy on the western front.

Paul Joseph Goebbels, propaganda minister; Joachim Von Ribbentrop, foreign minister, and Heinrich Him-mler, chief of the gestapo or secret police, were said to have opposed Goering, and Hitler was reported to have sided with them. Goering resigned his command of the air force, according to Die Zeitung, and Hitler assumed control of it, naming Field Marshal Erhard Milch his commander-in-chief. It was added that Goering had re tired to his country home, Karin hall, and that the estate was cor doned by gestapo men.

Selective service board members in McKees Rocks stared at him when he turned in his questionnaire. To list all his dependents, he had to attach an extra sheet of paper to it and write small at that. "They couldn't believe I had that many children," Isenberg chuckled.

"But I finally convinced 'em. After all, I had proof at home." He said the board reacted like this: "Wow, you've done your duty. You're excused deferred." The board said that so far as it knew, no other registrant in the nation had reported so large a family. Isenberg, a $190-a-month railroad employe, got married when he was 16 and his wife, Stella, 15.
