Volunteer Firemen's Week In response to a request from The North Carolina State Firemen's Association I am pleased to call atten tion of the citizens of North Carolina to the unselfish and dedicated efforts toward the welfare and betterment of North Carolina given every day by approximately 26,000 volunteer firemen who serve in approxi mately 800 volunteer fire de partments throughout our State. These citizens nave joined to gether to provide protection for the lives and property of their neighbors against fire. In this way they contribute greatly to the growth and strength of North Carolina, because without this security offered by modern, progressive fire departments, we could not have a modern, progressive State. Therefore, I am pleased to designate May 5-11, 1968, as NORTH CAROLINA VOL UNTEER FIREMEN'S WEEK and I commend the obser vance as being a worthwhile endeavor. PROCLAMATION BY PRESI RALEIGH - From bre* fast to dinner, from picnics to snacks, we've been changing our eating habits over the past 10 years. Despite the fact our supermarket shelves are loaded with an abundance and variety of food, our diets have slipped nutritionally, reports Iola Pri tchard, extension food conser- ' vat ion specialist. North Caro lina State University. The spotlight was put on ; American eating habits when j the first report on the 1966- 1 1966 Food Consumption in U. , S. Households survey was re leased by the U. S. Department of Agriculture early this spring. The facts from this stuay , indicate only half our families had good diets as compared to j 60 per cent when a similar study was made in 1955. In addition, the number of Inade quate diets Increased from 15 to 21 per cent during the Inter val between the 1955 and 1965 surveys. It's quite a paradox and one that's puzzling the experts. Our incomes are higher and real food costs relatively low, but adequate Income seems to be no guarantee that adequate diets will follow. Even at a $10,000 and above level, nine per cent of the families had poor diets. Best explanation is that we're not making a wise choice nu tritionally from our almost ov erwhelming abundance. Biggest losers at mealtimes have Deen fruits, vegetables, milk and milk products, says Miss Pritchard. Nutrition-wise that means we're falling short in the consumption of tne im portant nutrients, vitamin A, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and calcium. What's afoot to reverse this trend? Greater emphasis will be placed on helping homemak ers use more milk products, fruits and vegetables in meals; an increased effort will be made to get bread enrichment a law in all 50 states; more Interest will be stimulated for adding calcium to bread products; and a new look will be taken at the possibilities for fortifying non fat dry milk powder witn vit amin A. DENT JOHN A. AUTEN Whereas, the people of the State of North Carolina have united to protect themselves from uncontrolled fires, and Whereas, this public ser vice has been given from the earliest days to the present time, and Whereas this continued pub lic service is needed Tor the ? protection of the lives and pro perty of the States people and Whereas, modern, pro gressive fire departments are needed to make this State more secure, and Whereas, The North Carol ina StateFiremen's Association and other agencies have approv ed and endorsed North Carolina Volunteer Firemen's week. This observance is to honor all fire-fighting services, with special recognition for the Vol unteer Fireman. Therefore, let it be known that I, John A. Austen, Presi dent of the North Carolina St ate Firemen's Association, do hereby proclaim the week of May 5-11, 1968 as NORTH CAROLINA VOL UNTEER FIREMEN'S WEEK and urge all citizens to join in this expression of apprecia tion and gratitude for the ser vices performed by the Volun teer Firemen of our State.
