Terms Soldiers ‘Delegates Of Freedom’ WASHINGTON, June 13.— OP) - President Roosevelt, in a message written for the first issue of the official Army newspaper “Yank," told American soldiers overseas to night that they were “delegates of freedom.” “Every one of you has an in dividual mission in this war—this greatest and most decisive of all wars,” Mr. Roosevelt said. “You are not only fighting for your country and your people — you are, in the larger sense, delegates of freedom. “Upon you, and upon your com rades in arms of all the United Nations, depend the lives and liber ties of all the human race.” The newspaper, a weekly, is edit ed by enlisted men for the Army overseas, and will not be circulat ed in this country. -V Corporal Allen Named Morris Field Engineer Corporal Fulton Allen, who is stationed at Morris field, Char lotte, has been named aerial en gineer at the field, it was learned here yesterday.

The f irs t such parade, held more than a century ago, had 300 children from four Sunday schools. The 113th An niversary Day parade this year had 100,000 pupils and teachers from 320 churches. NEW MODERATOR The newly-elected moderator of the General Assembly of the Pres byterian Church in the U.S.A., who will serve the year 1942-43, is a prominent Pennsylvania pastor and the author of a number of books—the Rev. Stuart Nye Hutch ison. For the past twenty years he has been pastor of the East Lib erty Presbyterian church, Pitts burgh. He has also served pas torates in Newark, N. J., and in Steubenville, Ohio. He is a grad uate of Lafayette college and of Princeton Theological Seminary. CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTORS On June 1 there were 2,998 con scientious objectors in twenty eight special camps “for work of national importance,” according ^o the National Service Board for Religious Objectors. In addition to those who have been accepted by the government as objectors to bearing arms, there are several hundred other cases still pending before draft and appeal boards. A tabulation of the first 2,000 objec tors assigned to camps shows that 901 are Mennonites, 355 Brethren, 205 Friends (Quakers), 196 Metho dists, 67 Jehovah’s Witnesses, 65 Presbyterians, 53 Congrega tional-Christians, and 51 Baptists. The Methodists have thus the lar gest number of objectors among the major denominations. Its Dis cipline says, “Believing that con scientious objection to war is a natural outgrowth of Christian de sire for .peace on earth, we ask and claim exemption from all forms of military preparation or service for all conscientoius objec tors who may be members of the Methodist Church.” NEW COMMITTEE Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes, presi dent of the Phelps-Stokes Fu n d, and former canon of the Washing ton Cathedral of the Protestant Episcpoal church, is chairman of the “Committee on Africa, the War, and Peace Aims,” just or ganized by a group of nationally prominent American friends of Africa. The objective of the Com mittee is announced as the appli cation of the “eight points” of the Atlantic Charter to the problems of Africa. The committee includes educators and churchmen. The ex ecutive group includes: Prof. Ralph Johnson Bunche of Howard university, Director Jackson Davis of the General Education Board, Director J. Merle Davis of the International Missionary Council, Dr. Malcolm Davis of the Carnegie Endowment, Dr. Thomas S. Dono hugh of the Methodist Board of Missions, Miss Mabel E. Emerson of the Foreign Missions Con ference, Prof. Charles S. Johnson of Fisk university, Dr. Th o m as Jesse Jones of the Phelps-Stokes Fund, Father John LaFarge, edi tor of ‘America”, Dr. Em o r y Ross of the Foreign Missions Con ference, and Dr. Channing H. To bias of the National Y.M.C.A. COURAGE “We do not need to go to stories of the early church, we need not enter the catacombs, to find Chris tian courage; it exists today,” President Samuel Trexler of th e United Lutheran Synod of New York recently told a gathering Laymen. “Niemoeller has been in jail for five years; he would rather be fettered in body and free in soul. Our bishops in Norway, head ed by Berggrav, have taken the same stand. Of our foreign mis sion posts none have been aban doned. . . .Men do not take a stand of this kind by themselves; it is only as God puts into their hearts the sense of his presence that they will obey God rather than man.” DR. BARTAK ARRIVES Among the arrivals from Europe on the “S.S. Drottningholm,” ear ly in June, was Dr. Joseph Paul Bartgk, superintendent of the Methodist church in Prague, Czecho-Slovakia (now the Protec torate of Bohemia and Moravia under Germany). Although ■ bom in old Bohemia, Dr. Bartak is an American citizen, having sp e n t his early years in the United States, and upon Germany's dec laration of war on the Un i t ed States he was seized and interned in the prison-camp at Laufen, Ger many. During five months in this camp he acted as chaplain to the prisoners. Upon news of his im pending exchange for internees in America, the men in the camp prepared a “diploma” through which they expressed their appre ciation of his ministry. He says that treatment in the camp is not harsh, but that food is scant and not nourishing. Dr. Bartak’s fam ily is in Texas, and he will stay there for some weeks of rest. He is a graduate of Southwestern uni versity, and Vanderbilt university, and of the University of Chicago. -V No' matter how long the war manufactured will be 1942 models.

THREE CRITICISMS People are people, and human nature just can’t be altered, no matter how much people try to convince you that they don’t mind a little danger. And that is why a recruiting office can be such an interesting place. One day last week, the r ain came down in sheets, and in the middle of a shower a little negro, maybe about 14, dripped into the Navy office here. “Where kin I find where to sign up for the Ah-my?” he said, as the w%ter ran off his soiled cloth ing into little rivulets on the floor. The enterprising recruiter said, “Whatta you mean the Army — we’ll fix you up in the Navy, boy, and you’ll get some real action.” “Naw, suh, I doan want any of that Navy. Ah can’t walk on th e water; I can’t drink all of it up— and I is one heck of a pore swim mer. I’d be in a fix if the ship got sunk.” ENLISTMENTS UP HERE But not many people have the same idea as the little darky—who was too young for military serv ice anyhow—and recruiting rec ords at the Wilmington Navy of fice show a marked increase of enlistments. The 36 men enlisted here la s t Sunday on “Avenge Pearl Harbor Day” set a record for a single day’s enlistment, and all wee k, men have walked into the local station, ready “to go.” There ar e many good reasons for the trend. One, the Navy is today offering a better program than at any other time in history. Married men, for instance, have many chances in the Naval Re serve which even the Navy offi cials didn’t dream of a year ago. V-7, the training which leads to a commission as ensign, has been opened to married men, and in the enlisted branches, any number of ratings are open to all qualified men, whether they be married or single. JOB FOR EVERYBODY Experienced electricians, plumb ers, welders, carpenters, shipfit ters, mechanics all may gain good ratings in the Navy, if they can present two letters of recommen dation which speak of the appli cant’s ability at his particular trade. The Navy needs men of almost every profession, and daily, m e n by the thousands are swelling the Naval roster The 300 recruiting stations over the country are be ginning to do a landsale business —which is just what old Uncle Sam needs. IMPORTANT NOW A glance at y0ur paper aImpst any day will tell the story of why the United States is interested in building its Navy to the height of perfection. This war, as no war in history has ever seen, will be largely determine^ on the seas— or through the seas, at least. It doesn’t take a military strategist to figure that out. The Battle of Coral Sea was a good test for the Navy’s prowess, and there’ll be more tests. Bu t before the ships can do the fight ing, they must be conceived, planned, built, and launched—and MANNED. That is why so many men are needed. RECORD AT STAKE Never in the history of the Unit ed States has a man ever been drafted for naval service, and as long as conscientious men pitch in their hats, Navy duty will always be voluntary. That’s what the Navy’s working for now. A definite goal has been set for Navy recruiting services for this year, and the word has been pass ed around—and through the press —that if there aren’t enough vol unteers, men will be called by the draft boards. Which isn’t to indicate that MOST men wouldn’t rather be in the Navy. The answer, pure and simple, is that too many men are waiting too late to look into the Navy, and are consequently draft ed into the Army. But men are advised now that if they have been called for the Army, and their induction date is still four or five days off, it is still possible to enlist for Naval serv ice—in the Naval Reserve. jus* * Sood example of “he who hesitates is lost.” 4 -V Rosehill *42 Faculty Selected By Committee ROSEHILL, June 13.—Teach ers for the coming session of the Rosehill Public schools have been chosen, according to announce ment made by C.

Medical Care By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D. Yesterday I described certain conditions of the teeth as they af fect the general bodily health. To day I wish to discuss the subject of infection of the teeth. Infections of the teeth and sur rounding structures may be of two kinds—surface and hidden. Surface infections are caries or decay of the teeth, pyorrhea and other forms of irritation and infection of the gums; the hidden infections are abscesses at the apex of a tooth coming from an infection from crowns, fillings and possibly pulpless teeth. Opinions Disagree Dental caries, pyorrhea and gin givitis seldom cause focal infec tion, but they do seem to be an indication of a change in nutrition or lowered resistance to infection, teeth is a curiously complicated or both. The cause of decay of the one and the state of our knowledge is very mixed. For instance, from a book called Dental Caries pub lished by the American Dental As sociation and written by 195 differ ent dentists, the following contra dictory statements are excerpted: Die—Opinion A: “There is no evidence that caries is produced by malnutrition or may be pre vented by adequate diets.” Opinion B: "Dental caries arises from met abolic disturbances which can be avoided or corrected through the use of diets high in all recognized nutritional essentials. The Effect of Civilization—Opin ion A: “The causes of all caries reside in refinements of civiliza tion and resulting changes of diet.” Opinion B: “There is no basis for the view, frequently held, that freedom from caries in a primitive people is due to a sup eriority of natural as compared with civilized diets.” Sngar and Starches Sugar and Starches in Diet— Opinion A: “Sugar or starch has not been observed to favor caries.” Opinion B: “Active caries was in duced in children by increasing the sugar intake.” Vitamins—Opinion A: “Caries arises independently of the amount of vitamin C in the diet.” Opinion B: “The dietary factors of caries are vitamins D and A and mineral salts.” With such a contradictory set of opinions, common sense has to come to the rescue. Undoubtedly the soil and weakness of the tooth is important but the major role is accomplished by infection with' the acidophilus bacillus. This is an acid-forming organism w h i ch grows in sugar and starches. Un doubtedly a properly balanced *.1 ii-!TvP°r]ant during the Period o childhood and adolescence wr teeth are being formed We ■'"l"'' assume that in a tooth which didn get a good start and therefore doesn’t have very good dentin enamel, if food remnants accumn late the acidophilus germ be sir." to grow on these and cares P suits To aU intents and purpose.' therefore, it is a local disease The hidden infections car. rr.„ be detected by the X-rav ‘ ;t ■, possible that through the operation of the processes of focal infection they cause damage in a number of structures such as the join*, and the nerves (neuritis, neural gia), the heart muscle, the “w neys, etc. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS C.
