FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1946 THE NEWBEKKT aoH The other day, as I was buying my groceries, I noticed a huge poster tacked on the wall bearing the words “Save Bread for Europe” and somehow the grocer and I be gan talking about food conserva tion. He told me that many women do not realize just how much food they waste every day. And I told him my favorite trick for keeping food fresh and cutting down food costs at the same time. “Waxed paper,” I said, “is the clue to food saving that a lot of women simply overlook. I always choose items wrapped in waxed paper and use that paper to pro tect my foods and insure their freshness. Take a loaf of bread, for instance — by carefully re-clos ing the waxed paper wrapper on my bread after taking out just enough for each serving, I can keep 'it fresh for days. Cereals, too, as well as many other foods, keep fresh ever so much longer if the waxed paper lining is folded care fully every time the package is put back.” The grocer told me that I should pass that trkk along to every housewife I 1 now — that, accord ing to actual statistics, if each housewife would save only one slice of bread a day, the national saving would be a million pounds of bread daily! Enough to feed 5 million people! Think what that would mean to the people in Europe who are actually starving! You’ve been reading about the urgent need of food conservation — and hearing it over the radio — so why not try my method of saving? Let waxed paper do the work it’s intended for — to keep your food fresh and, by eliminating unnecessary waste, help to feed the millions of starv ing people in Europe.- S. C Health Dept. Issues Statement The South Carolina State Board of Health, with financial assistance from the State, the various counties of the State, and the Federal Govern ment, is now carrying on a wide and extensive health program. The funds provided by the Federal Government are of considerable amount, and hence, of great importance. Various bureaus or agencies of the Federal Government provide financial assist ance in many of our programs: ma ternal and child health, particularly as. it affects the treatment of sol diers’ wives and infants; venereal diseases, crippled children, tubercu losis. malaria, typhus, and general health. The Executive Committee of the South Carolina State Board of Health feels that a public statement carify- ing its position with regard to pend ing legislation in Washington affect ing public health and the practice of medicine is timely and will be help ful to the community. The Committee approves that por tion of the proposed legislation pro viding funds for the erection of hos pitals, health centers and diagnostic institutions where the need for such establishments has been clearly shown. Similarly it endorses those portions of the program dealing with the expansion of public health acti vities in connection with services for crippled children, and control of venereal disease and tuberculosis. It favors continuation of federal as sistance in maternal and infant care for the indigent. It supports the move to foster medical teaching and research by federal funds which shall in no way obligate the recipients. The measures proposed to provide sickness and dis ability benefits are wholly commenfl- able as are those which contemplate the allotment of federal funds to the various states to enable these states to provide medical care for in digent persons. The Committee is opposed to any federal control of medicine and its related branches which will permit, directly or indirectly, domination of medical or dental service by a gov ernment bureau. Because the Com mittee feels that federal compulsory health insurance now under consid eration in Congress will inevitably I bring this about, it hereby expresses . it’s unqualified disapproval of that 1 portion of the plan as envisioned in both the message of President Tru man and in Title II of the current version fo the Wagner-Murray-Din- gle Bill. While the Committee is aware of the desirability of easing the bur den of expense of illness and broad ening the benefits of preventive medicine, it believes these ends can be reahed more effectively by evolu tionary methods. The rapid growth of voluntary hospital and medical service plans, such as the Blue Cross, is indisputable evidence- of healthy activity of this evolutionary trend. Furthermore, it feels that wholly inadequate evidence has been advanced that compulsory health in surance will either assure better | care at a lowered cost to the Ameri- I can people, or would better serve the interests of public health.

From the time you dry your face in the morning with a cotton towel until you crawl between fresh cotton sheets at night you use cotton practically everywhere you go and in everything you do. You raise the cotton shade with a cotton cord, rise to put on cotton clothes, tie the cotton laces in shoes lined and stitched with cotton, and eat breakfast from a cotton covered table. You ride to work on a cotton upholstered seat, carried by cotton corded tires. As you go about your daily work, cotton is with you at every turn. Even the phone calls you make go through cotton insulated wires. From where you’re sitting now, you can reach out and touch cotton. No other fiber is so versatile, so dependable, so easy and safe to use. Home Furniture Co. FURNITURE G. B.

To obtain the best material for a the movie—both in story ideas and talent—a nation-wide 4-H contest has been launched. As incentives, the club leader who writes the best story idea for the movie, and the 4-H boy and gprl selected to play the leads, will receive an all-expense trip to the 25th Anniversary Nation al 4-H Club Congress in Chicago next December. The nine runners-up in each of the three catagories—leaders boys and girls—will receive $50 or $25 U. S. Savings Bonds. The purpose of the movie is to stimulate interest in 4-H Club work among rural youth, and thereby in crease membership to the goal of 3.200,000 in 1950.
