~ FINLAND NOW IN SERIOUS PLIGHT

Faces Big Job in Feeding Her Citizens; Two Ways Open for U. S. Help.

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, March 12.—Almost overlooked in the rush of European war developments and the aftermath of suffering which follows in the wake of Hitler's armies is the increasingly serious plight of Finland, which not so long ago won the admiration of the world for her brave resistance ‘to Russia. Though not in ‘ the same category with nations occupied by the Nazis, whose food problems again are the subject of controversy—for Finland is not occupied, and preserves her independent status—she still faces tremendous difficulties in feeding a population that was left in sore distress by the onslaught of her powerful neighbor.

Food is being rationed in Finland, and the rations are. thin. More drastic rationing is soon to go into effect.

Her immediate problem now is getting further credits in the United States. The $30,000,000 Export-Im-port Bank loan granted in late 1639 and early 1940, in two installments, is practically exhausted.

Two possible avenues are open: 1. Another United States loan. Negotiatigns are under way for $7,000,000 additional. 2. Inclusion of Finland under the terms of the Lend-Lease Bill. ; The Lend-Lease Bill includes agricultural products among things which may be transferred for the aid of democracies.

WARNS THAT DRAFT MAY MENACE HEALTH

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., March 12 (U. P.).—Dr. Evarts A. Graham, St. Louis, president of the American College of Surgeons, has warned that the nation will face a shortage of doctors unless the Selective Service Administration discontinues the practice of drafting medical students. Dr. Graham told physicians attending a regional meeting of the society yesterday that 10 per cent of the medical profession already had been called for military service and that possibly 30 per cent may be in the Army by the end of the year. “Should a good percentage of | medical students be forced to give {up their studies, the civilian health {will be seriously threatened after | the present national emergency is | over,” he said.

Herman Dold takes a “healthy” poke at his one million, five hundred thousand and first “victim,” with no pain to himself.

[. A. Cs Warman Has Swing 'Healthy' Pokes for 40 Years

Herman Dold, a mild-mannered family man of 60, has hauled off and taken a poke at maybe a million and a half men in his day with no noticeable wear and tear cn himself, \ He doesn’t talk out of the corner of his mouth, or spit through his teeth and, for a man who onc: “pummeled” Jim Jeffries when he still was world heavyweight champion, Mr. Dold is in remarkably fine physical shape.

For the last 17 years he has been pushing people around for hire in the turkish bath and massage parlors of .the Indianapolis Athletic Club and it is a matter of record that he has pinched many an elegant muscle there, and twisted many a higher-salary bracket neck. Immediately before his engagement at the Athletic Club, he worked at French Lick Springs and while he was there he recalls having kneaded the paunch muscles of several nationally known politiclans. Before that he worked on the West Coast and it was there he had his “encounter” with Mr. JefIries, an adventure which resulted in no wounds for either adversary. Today, Mr, Dold is about as well setup physically as any man his age, and regularly his firm and hard muscles make many a man years his junior shout for help. For 40 years now, his working uniform has been a pair. of swimming trunks, his tools have been his trained muscles, and strong hands, and his “patients” have been men who had made some errors in eating, drinking or exercise. Mr. Dold estimates that he has given at least a million and a half massage treatments in his time, and that he’s still going strong. He can tell, he says, from how the muscles react to his treatment what sort of condition his “patient” is in. Sometimes they scream when he works on muscles that are specially sore. Also, Mr. Dold broils people under the sun lamp “by ear.” He takes a look at someone with winter pallor and recommends, say, four minutes to a side. Invariably, four minutes is just enough and not too much. He believes businessmen in general are taking better care of themselves and are in better shape than they used to be. He thinks there still is some room for improvement. Mr. Dold, known only as Her-

{ man to his customers, has a mar-

ried daughter and a son, a sophomore in Purdue University, taking electrical engineering. Personally, he’s in such good shape he doesn’t need special baths and massages.

ITALIAN WORKERS SENT TO GERMANY

ROME, March 12 (U. P,) —Italy has agreed to send 204,000 workers to Germany under an agreement reached at Berlin recently between Robert Ley, German labor front leader, and Pierto Campofierri, President of the Fascist Federation of Industrial Workers. Campofierri made the disclosure to the workers’ federation. He compared the Italian workers who would be sent to Germany to Axis soldiers fighting on common fronts.”

said that by agreement the Italians].

would be permitted to send their entire wages home and that a complete organization would be provided for them in Germany so that they could “have the same privileges which they enjoy in Italy.

Production Can’t Be Stopped For Every Change, Maj. Williams Says.

By MAJ. AL WILLIAMS Times Aviation Editor

“How can we take advantage eof the amazing progress in aeronautical science and still turn out warplanes by the carload?” Some people complicate this question by believing that vast numbers of design and structural changes are necessary ‘because our aviation laboratories are discovering something new nearly every day. Certainly we’

could never get mass production of aircraft if we tried to include cvery one of these new ideas. * There's a zero day for starting mass production of any article—a time-line at which you should arrive with all the practical information available and tested and proven up to the moment. Usually that information has been reduced to the form of detailed blueprints of the desired product, whether it be airplanes, automobile tanks or fountain pen. The final plan is the result of compromise between the absolutely perfect product you would like to build and the product it is possible to start building. In mass production of warplanes, the first necessity is to agree on a sound and satisfactory kind of plane for a given purpose. At this point the balanced mind of the true executive takes charge. There are minor or major changes that would improve the plane, if information about them had been available when the type design was chosen. But to incorporate these changes means halting the mass-production wheels, so they should be held over for advanced models. Mass production of aircraft is a comparatively new enterprise, Some k 3 . think it is under way, but others Nk. . 4 NG ®t > believe we are still trying to dis- IPN Ke IX 8 i ¥ \ cover how to get at it.
