PAGE TW0 FAP.MERS ADVOCATE, CHARLES TOWN, W. VA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 29, was more than two per cent of the total. Then the medical fraternity entered the picture. It was known malnutrition and diet deficiency existed even in well-to-do-hc mes. The scientist went to work to find out why. Their discovery amounted to this: Many palatable foods are sadly deficient in those vitamins that are essen- tial to robust health. In the process of refining, flour lost many of its health giving attri,butes. So in 1938. with the facts known, the A,merican Medi- cal Association went on record to the effect that in the .processing of foods, the goal should be to retain the nat- , al food value, and if this could not be done, the pro: ,eessed food should be scientifically enriched to restore the : sses. It is to the credit of millers and bakers that they o perated fully. 7:: So tod, ay they are planning;to give white bread which ost of us enjoy, the vitamins c ed. Such enriched i read, scientists say, is no more fattening than the unen- So today they are ptani g to give white bread which riehed varieties. T mn no '* Peyton R.

An announcement to this effect was made at Washington, after the President had signed a bill author- izing him to make a my raining cover a period of 30 onths. It was good news to parents, most of whom had esigned themselves to the idea of an additional year. In announcing the plan, however, the War Department said it was onditioned on the international situation If war should come to America, those in the army most like- ly would serve until it was over as in the World War. Approximately 200,000 men will be due for release from active service in 1941, the department said, and in order that they may reach their homes prior to the Christmas holidays their release .will be accomplished before December 10. The Department announces three priorities which would govern the release of guardsmen and selectees. Given first priority were dependency and hardship cases. In second place were assi.gned men 28 years of age or over on July 1, 1941. They would be released regardless of their len Tth of service, but in the order in which their ervice began. Married men who desire discharge at the end of the originally set twelve months' service, were ac- corded third priority. o O DOUBTS IN GERMANY The New York Times, traditionally cautious, would not express its opinion were it not based upon facts The following editorial from the Times is most interesting. It . ays : The renewed and intensified bombing of German cities, especially Berlin is plainly having a psycholog- ical as well as a material effect. The people did not ex- pect it. The war was to be kept far away from thexn. Goering himself promised the Ruhr cities: "You will not be exposed to a single enemy bo,m b fr( m enemy aircraft"; and only the other night British raiders caused a fire a mile and a half long in and around the Krupp armament works at Essen, while other aircraft beautiful waters, near Lake Erie. ties of nature.
