Lawrence Scaway Work Whenever It Commenc- es, U.S. General Tells Com- mittee Brigadier General Thomas M. Robins, assistant chief of army en- gineers said late in June that 10,000 men would be employed in con- struction of the St. Lawrence sea- way and power project. He told the. House rivers and Barbors committee, which is con- sidering legislation to authorize 2 the development, that army engin- eors had estimated about 2.000 common laborers and 8,000 skilled and semi-skilled men would be needed. "Do you think that at a time MHke this we should take 8,000 skill- ed men from defence industries?" asked Representative Beiter, Demo- crat, New York, an opponent of the seaway. "I think this project should be authorized immediately and be prosecuted as speedily as practic able," Robins replied. "1 don't think any one has urged that this be given priority over more urgent defence projects," Belter remarked. . B Robins then repeated a previous assertion that he believed the sca- way was "essential to a program of all-out defence." Hitler's 8 Nephew Joining R.C.AF.

Nettles As Food If you § never tried nettles as a vegetable why not begin now? Nettles are prepared in the same way as spinach, which they somewhat resemble in flavour. Their value has long been appre- ciated by Old Country folk, who also make both beer and wine, from nettles. Doctors and die- tetic experts advocate nettles as a vegetable, because of their high vitamin content.

Sognnaes, of the Univer- sity of Rochester (N.Y.) School of Medicine and Lentistry. Rats were kept on a diet of coarse corn, which is deficient in a num- ber of dietary essentials and long has been recognized as a produc- er of caries. Studies were made of the manner in which theAlecay processes affected the rats' teeth, Part of the original group was kept as a control and received normal diet. At the end of two months the teeth of these rats were examined and a surprising ities were filled and presented a polished appearance. .
