It would be a great breaking down under a burden of wealth which it cannot get distributed and used. Nations have adopted short- sighted economic measures of national self-sufficiency involving restrictions on Production and trade. These measures make for the permanence of poverty and discontent in a world of plenty. That road leads to disaster. It is a race against time to rectify the mistakes of the past. The great British Commonwealth of Nations might well combine with the United States and other democratic countries to promote a new policy of plenty, beginning with food, the first along 'these lines would be a new gospel to essential of life.

To attain the new standard 'of health we need a new standard of diet which will provide a sufficient amount of all the food substances which the body needs to attain its full inherited capa- city for health and physical fitness. Such a diet consists very largely of the "protective foods", such as milk, butter cheese, eggs, fruit and vegetables. In the United Kingdom, due partly to the spread of the new knowledge of nutrition--partly to the rise in the standard of living which enables more people to purchase a better diet, and largely to the excellent social and pub- lic health work which supplies protec- tive foods free or at reduced rates to necessitous families, there has been-a great improvement in the diet of the United Kingdom in the last twenty years' The consumption of protective foods excepting milk has increased by about fifty per cent. Accompanying the improved diet has been a remark- able improvement in health. The worst forms of malnutrition, such as bad rickets and scurvy in infants have al- most disappeared. Compared with the pre-war period the infant mortality ate has been reduced from about 100 to 57. Tuberculosis has been reduced by about a_ half Children leaving school today are about 2 inches taller than their parents at the same age, and the of life has been in- creased by as much as seven years expectation This shows how easily life can be saved and health improved. ' But eevn though there has been such a great advance, the diet of the poorer half of the population was still not up to the standard required for perfect | health, and there is still a good deal of | ill-health and physique due to faulty diet. | The position in other countries is no better. A recent survey in the United | States has shown that nearly the same} proportion of families is subsisting on! a diet not good enough for health.

Sir John said that he had advocated such a policy in his own country, and/ believed that such a policy would suit the whole British Empire.

Tf all the Dominions set about bring-| ing their own national dietaries up to the level needed for health, they would consume a great deal of the protective foods for which they are now seeking an external market, and the United Kingdom would be able to absorb all that surplus, because it could not--at least for' many years--produce any- thing like the amount of foodstuffs needed, and it would have to increase its imports of wheat not only to make good the reduction in wheat acreage in the United Kingdom but to feed to A | NDWAR : Amidst the mud and carnage of the proverbial coves of peace, perches himself on a rifle 'ly asks Japan's invasion of China, a pigeon, carried a 'ly, "What's all this about?" ani Paradoxically enough, the sven og of peace are actually important factors fen tpost Scan "Gone With the Wind" Are you a "Gone With the Wind" advertiser?
