From where I sit, that prescrip-
tion would apply to most human
relationships. Criticism rarely
rouses anything but resentment.
But an open mind—whether it’s
applied to a woman’s choice of
hats, or a husband’s preference for
a pipe and a moderate glass of beer
or two—leads to the conclusion
that there's right on both aider.

Sam Abernat hy never intended to
be a matrimony expert, but he hit
the nail on the head the other day
when he said:
“What marriage really needs is
more open minds and a lot fewer

Sam may not think much of his
missus' choice of hats or her habit
of serving watercress and cream

• PRESIDENT'S CONSERVATION DRIVE—The food conservation
program's "meatless Tuesdays" and "eggless and poultryless Thurs-
days" apparently was insisted upon by President Truman himself
after his Citizens' Food committee had turned down the proposal.
Committee Chairman Charles Luckman suggested the idea at his
group’s first meeting His colleagues, only about half of whom
voted on the question, rejected the proposal by a vote of 8 to 5.
Yet, four days later. Luckman and the president announced to
the nation their meatless, eggless and poultryless program. The
White House said that committee members were polled on the ques-
tion and voted for the program.
It is believed that Mr Truman personally put the idea of the
special days up to each member and that in view of the president’s
insistence, the food committee went along with him.
At its initial session, the committee also heard at least one pro-
posal for dessertless and butterless days, but brushed this sugges-
tion aside with the meatless, eggless and poultryless idea.
Secretary of Agriculture Clinton Anderson once indicated to
newsmen that he favored a conservation program that would Include
wheatless day. such as was observed in World War I.
However, there is little likelihood that either dessertless, butter-
less. or wheatless days will ever be added to the food-saving drive.
And. It looks like eggless and poultryless days may be the first
phase of the campaign to go out the window

Now. however, there aYe signs that the Ad-
ministration itself feels the 22 billion dollar re-
quest is too high, and the arrangements for
H| Europe's self-help are too vague.
There is a distinct possibility that the United
States will ask the European representatives to
scale down the magnitude of the proposed pro-
gram. and to spell out tn more detail the steps
the recipient countries will take to achieve the
maximum good from their own resources.
Either ef these requests would necessitate a reconvening of the
Paris Conference, further studies by technical committees, and
possibly intra-European difficulties in working out a revised
program.
Should the Truman administration fail to make the request, it is
almost certain that the GOP-controlled congressional committees
would do so. Compliance would be virtually certain, for failure
would almost surely tip the congressional scales against the whole
program.

• WHILE AMERICANS tighten their belts tn a save-the-food cam-
paign and governipent officials seek more grain for hungry Europe,
the official bulletin of the Soviet embassy in Washington announces
a record wheat crop in Russia.
The publication applauds farmers in Poltava who seeded 200,000
extra acres of wheat this year and the collective
farms in Kiev that "poured into the state ware-
house 171,000 tons more of grain than in the pre-
war year 1940 "
The abundance of vegetables, potatoes, meat and
dairy products is forcing Soviet food prices to plum-
met. according to the bulletin. Meat prices were quoted as dropping
25 per cent in the Ukraine, potatoes and tomatoes 50 per cent in
Latvia and cabbage 60 to 70 per cent in most sections.
To dispose of the Russian surpluses, new canneries arc being built
in the far east and Balkan republics.

Lemons May Injure the Teeth
By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN. M D.
LEMONS, which are available at
almost all seasons of the year, are
widely used and rightly so as a fair-
ly cheap, rich and convenient source
of vitamin C. However, according to

The most frequent lea.on given

tion. Some took it because they
thought it helped to prevent and re-
lieve colds, others regarded it as a
tonic and, in some instances, it was
sed as a part of a reducing diet.

It is, of course, important that
