DISEASE CAUSED BY LACK OF NEW VITAMIN NAMED

Nutrition Institute Hears of Ailment Often Confused With Pellagra.

(Copyright, 1938, ‘by Science Service) TORONTO, April 26.—Discovery

of a new, disfiguring disease which people get from a diet lacking in one of the new vitamins, riboflavin,

was announced by Drs. W. H. Sebrell and R. E. Butler of the U. S. National Institute of Health, Washington, at the meeting here today

{of the American Institute of Nu-

trition. Ugly moist sores and cracks at the corners of the lips appear in patients suffering from this ailment. Later the skin around the nose and on the ears gels red and slightly

" |greasy and peels.

This condition, which has been confused with pellagra in the past, is quite prevalent, Dr. Sebrell believes. He first discovered it in the South, but has already had reports of a dozen cases in Bellevue Hospital in New York City. A similar condition has been reported from Malaya and India.

Riboflavin Missing

The ailment is due to lack of riboflavin, a chemical which has only recently been discovered as an essential of the diet and which belongs in the class of the vitamins. Giving this chemical to the patients cures the condition. Nicotine acid, cure for pellagra, with which the disfiguring condition has been confused, does not cure this new disease, Dr. Sebrell found from study of 18 women suffering’ from the ugly sores at the corners of their mouths. The sore mouths are probably only the outward signs of a general change in the body resulting from lack of ribofiavin in the diet, Dr. Sebrell explained. The condition is new only in the sense that it has just been recognized as a separate ailment. When more cases have been studied, other and possibly more serious effects of riboflavin lack may be discovered. Dr. Sebrell has christened the new ailment ariboflavinosis. He pronounces that jaw-breaking scientific name with all the vowels long except the last “i” and accents the|J second and next to last syllables.

Survey of Needs Urged

the nutritional status and needs of the people were urged by Dr. Tom D. Spies of Birmingham and Cincinnati. Dr. Spies pioneered in treatment of pellagra with nicotine acid, the chemical that is now curing even the most seriously ill demented patient. Ways of both preventing and treating malnutrition and dietary deficiency diseases might come from nutrition surveys, Dr. Spies indicated, if these surveys were conducted so as to show not only the extent of malnutrition but also the kind of diets the malnourished people had been eating.

KILLER DIES IN NOOSE, ‘AT PEACE WITH GOD’

REGINA, Sask., April 26 (U. P.). —Harry Heipel, 24, said today that there is no difficulty in facing death courageously if you have made peace with God. Then he walked up a gallows’ steps and was hanged. Thus he paid with his life for having shot and killed J. A. Kaesar,

Moosomin, Sask. farmer, last November. He was captured a few weeks after the slaying at a farm in Ogle County, Illinois. In his trial it was brought out that Kaesar had given him a ride and had been shot in fighting Heipel’s attempt to rob him.

HARMONY PLEA

MADE BY BISHOP

Methodist Unity Conference Begins Work of Setting Up Administration.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 26 (U. P.) ~The conference that will

unite the eight million Methodists of the world opened today on a note of fraternal co-operation with a plea for constructive legislation JFehe than parliamentary obstruction. Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, the Methodist Episopal Church South and clerical and lay leaders of the Methodist Protestant Church were in the packed auditorium when Bishop John Moore of Dallas, Tex., delivered the Episcopal address that started the delegates un their work of perfecting unificaon. “The length of our separations has covered a century; the differences due to geographical divisions are not insignificant; thz involved corporate life is immense; the ancient memories have vividly lingered; yet we can boldly declare that no similar movement in history has proceeded in a more kindly ay fraternal mood,” Bishop Moore said.

Hails Fraternal Spirit

“The fraternal spirit may be expected to have full sway in this uniting conference,” he said. “On the larger matters we are already in agreement. , , .” Bishop Moore warned against immediate mergers of local congregations. Such controversial questions as autonomy for women's organizations, freedom of youth groups, administration of Negro churches and disposition of present conflicting church publications will be debated during the three-week uniting session. Thousands to Attend More than 900 official delegates,

8. | including laymen, bishops. and other

clergymen, were participating. More than 25000 Methodist lay visitors were expected before adjournment. Members of the three branches last year decided by a majority vote

./in general conferences to unite. The ||

conference which opened here today had the full power of determining the governmental structure and administration of the new church.

KILLS WAN AND SELF

GARY, April 28 (U, P.)—Edna Roberts, 25, Centralia, Ill, shot to death William R. Smith, 34, also of Centralia, last night, in an apartment where they had been living together for nine days. She then killed herself.
