EIGHT THE EAST HAMPTON STA R JULY 31. 1947 Mrs. Braem Says: —^ = = rr --------- - ■ ■- Recently I was asked, ‘‘Is it not true, that today we are supposed to consume higher percentages of pro tein in order to be in better health? And, would it.be wise to include in the day’s rations, some of the pro ducts which are ‘predigested pro teins in order to supplement the reg ular daily intake of this food con stituent?” This is an excellent question and one which I shall answer to the best of my ability. The word “protein” is derived from a Greek word mean ing \first.” They are complex, or ganic compounds made up of a num ber of amino-acids. When proteins are taken into the body in the form of food, they are broken up in their amino-acids which are later recom bined into the kinds of protein need ed by the body. I used to frequent ly go over the list of “complete” pro teins for the members of my nutri tion class several years ago and I’m hoping they and others interested in the fundamental facts of the science of nutrition will remember the foods (six of them) which do contain all the necessary amino-acids to be classified as “complete proteins.” The foods are: milk, eggs, meat, fish, poultry, and all cheeses except, cream. So long as one receives daily (I should add, an adult) at least one pint of milk, one egg and four ounces --of either meat, fish, poultry or cheese, no scientist yet has said that an adult would not be in protein equilibrium. Of course, age is a factor in determining pro tein requirements. Children, for ex ample need at least a quart of milk (or its equivalent) daily along with twice as much protein from other sources as do adults. As one gets older, the need for protein decreases. It is true that for awhile now we’ve been told that certain diseases are brought under quicker control when higher amounts of complete protein are administered. Folks who are too near death from starvation, sick ness, wounds or shock can absorb the- \predigested proteins” when even simple liquid protein food can not be digested normally. As to add ing any of the “predigested pro ducts” to one’s normal daily ration, there is no reason at all why one should consider it. One’s physician decides such procedures, then as a rule, he suggests that a dietician work out menus which will comple ment the predigested protein pro duct which he has prescribed for his patient. Of course there are cases where a physician has found no “real illness,” then he suggests that the dietician take over completely as to incorporating the predigested protein into the menus so as to be sure that there be no protein defici ency. For the average normal per son, the milk, egg and a luscious bit of broiled steak per day is still some- LAWN MOWING —AND— MAINTENANCE HEDGE CLIPPING MOTT BROS PHONE E. H. 229 thing to be happy about. I should not forget to include -in this article the fact that almost every kind of food we eat contains more than one kind of protein. While the six classes of foods which I have named above do contain at least 23 amino-acids (building blocks of protein), there comes to us, espe cially from vegetables sources, am ino-acids which, while not in the \complete protein” group, comple ment excellently the amount of “complete” protein which we do re ceive. In fact, one scientist recently hailed the meat sandwich for this very reason! He said that the pro tein of the meat (being “complete”) worked to better advantage in the body when ingested with the \in complete” protein of the wheat.

Padover in PM, Monday, July 7th. \Russia’s refusal to co-operate in the Marshall Plcn has split Europe from top to bottom; it has also sharpened the ideological war. From now on, our generation will be living in a world that is divided into two unbridged halves, in an atmosphere of tensions and suspicions.\ \From where we sit, the Russian gamble seems hideously reckless and irresponsible. It looks like a deliberate Soviet move to keep the world in a state of disorder and disunity, so as to give Communism its chance to reap the fruit of chaos.\ \Whatever the motives and the final results, the Russians cannot escape the major responsibility for splitting Europe in two and for hastening a w a r of ideologies \Even before there is a shooting war, if any ever comes, w e may see this country drifting towards an approximation of what Professor Harold Lasswell of Yale has called the 'garrison state’.\ \Can w e avoid it? I think there are two possibilities, both largely depending upon the good-will of this country.\ \One is to give full and unrestricted material aid to those countries that need to raise their living standards; food, security, and jobs are the best weapons against Communism and instability.\ \Another course is to help neutralize Western Europe, to make it strong enough to serve as a buffer, solid and unafraid.\ defore that can be done, we will haw to do a great deal of liberalizing at home.” The Newspaper of Comment Notional Advertising Representative: Lorenzen and Thompson, Inc .

It has enabled us to provide telephone service for many families who other wise would have had to do without. Giving service to the hundreds still on our waiting lists is our Number One job. That’s why in most places we are obliged to say \ Party line resi dence service only” to new customers. And, of course, as long as there is a waiting list, we cannot give an individual line to our present party line customers. Telephone factories are working on huge orders to provide the switch boards, cables and other equipment we need to catch up with the demand for service. We will do everything possible, so that once again, we can give anyone, anywhere the type of service desired—without delay.
