RIGHTS AVhat are rights, and should people hnve them 1' The Bill of Rights, according (o William Feather, a business man who philosophically observes the Uvery-clay scene, includes "the right to drop chewing gum anywhere, tho right to deface the walls of washrooms, the.

right to disturb others by loud chatter in the theater, the right occupy a busy lolephone booth as long as one pleases, the right to muscle into the front end of. a queue, and" the'right to block the view of 300 during an exciting play in any sports event." So many really legitimate rights have been lost in Axis-governed countries that a lot of people are confused as to lire rights, and what not. Then; is, for instance, the right to be courteous.

Disoovisry Biotin Biotin was originally called a six. or the rat factor. It was, also put out. I believe, as Vitamin tho skin vitamin. The way its existence UYIS discovered was one of the by-products of animal experimentation.

Amoiifr the numberless experiments performed in the new field of food resoni'ch in the last three decades, one set aimed to observe the effect of furnishing; rats al'. their protein requirement, the form of white. What hap-' period was that the rate developed a skin discnse that really skin disease. They were sorry "lookihjf rats.

Their hair came out in patches and there were scruffs and scales on the skin that showed through and Ihoir eyes were red and watery their claws and tails looked Then it was found that if yeast, potato, arrowroot, or casein were added to the diet, this dermatitis did not occur. The rats sec were living on nothing- but cgK white which produced a substanec called avadin, -which apparently absorbs all the biotin' which is spontaneously produced in- the bocly. The dermatitis is undoubtedly clue to deficiency of a needed food element. It was first called Vitamin .13 six, or pyridoxinc, but now considered to be really the chemical which has been isolated in crystalline form and named biotin. Exceptions to Statement That exception to the statement that we all got enough biotin in our food occurs only -under conditions.

The other exception is that perhaps biotin is in some way concerned trition of cancer cells. The evidence is still not clear, but in the WASHINGTON Madame Procope, wife of the Finnish minister whom the United States state department asked to leave Washington about '-wo months because his country was an ally of Germany, is not in the least dismayed by her lonely and somewhat difficult situation here. At luncheon other day she looked happy and healthy. She said the r.uwost, Procope child who will be christened Car!

The English wife of the former Finnish minister to the United States says that she and the children would be way across tho ocean right now were it not far the fact that the ship on which she must sail is momentarily lied up in a Swedish port. Sweden is only about two hours by plane from Finland. Since it has steadfastly remained neutral Mjalmar Procope may easily visit his family there. Madame Procope will ot go to England where her family is living ir.

Certainly Viscount Halifax, his Britannic majesty's ambassador to the United States knows how to be charmingly informal at a news conference. And when a great man is charmingly informal at a news conference time for somebody to strike out in behalf of poor old "Pro Bono You remember that half-forgotten little guy- enormous volume of research that being done oil cancer chemistry, the role of biotin may poHsibly be found" to have possibilities for cancer control This article is not supposed to have any practical application. It aims-to suggest some of the new ideas in research in food factors.

Perhaps something wonderfully useful will come out of them. "What DSC it is?" asked Bismark, when Helmholx described to him a new.idea in pure scientific theory. "What- use is'a new born baby?" replied the scientist. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Is there any danger in discarding reading glasses? No, if you see just as well without them. Many people arc normally slightly near-sighted or astigmatic when, young and need glasses.

But when they get to middle age there is a hardening of the lens. The'eyes correct without glasses in such a case. J.

At the British embassy when the ambassador called a news con; fei'ence to introduce Sir Alexander Cadogen, Britain's permanent undersecretary for foreign affairs; and to report on his own trip to i England, I arrived in the marble and black mirrored embassy drawing room a little behind schedule.

There sal the British ambassador in white shirt sleeves and long cFgarot holder (with other suitable garments of I-Ie wns as nonchalant as is Mr. Roosevelt, when the president reports on his own foreign goings on. Only Lord Halifax had out- Roosevclted Mr. Roosevelt. He had urged the gentlemen of the press and radio lo take olT their coats, and there coats hung, wilting, in the August humidity on the back of little gold drawing room chairs.

"Here is a situation to be watched," I thought quickly. "When the British ambassador and the press take off their coats and literally roll up their sleeves together, something is going happen." Nothing in particular seemed to happen except reassurance of peace and good will. You'd never have been able to tell from Lord Halifax's manner or that of Sir Alexander Cadogen (pronounced Kay-due-gin) that cither gentleman had ever heard of the Lend- Lease agitation. It was Paul Wooton who asked the G-l-dollar question. "Mr.

Ambassador, is it tcue that Britain wishes an extension of the Lend-Leasc?" There was a breathless pause in the general atmosphere. But a pause of a fraction of a of a second: "I rather believe," said Lord Halifax. "I rather fancy that some people are thinking faster on the subject of Lcnd- Leasc than we ourselves are thinking." Several more 6-1-dollar questions on the same ticklish theme were asked. But the ambassador lost not a single dash of composure. He even tossed off a little joke here a.nd there in the best White House manner.

It was evident, certainly to an American with a nationalistic turn of mind, that the British, having heard the rough reverberations of their recent trial shot, hinting that we must supply them further with Lcnd-Leasc, have decided to pipe down, as one would say in Scotland, until the mood ot the United States has become more receptive.
