Claim Nazis Eat Industrial Oils

[ BERNE, July 3.—The fat shortage in Germany has led some people to the “not very intelli-

| gent” idea of using industrial oils for cooking purposes, according to the Tribune De Geneve's Berlin correspondent, These oils contain toxic acids and are, therefore, extremely injurious to health. How general the practice has become, it is difficult to say, but the situation igs serious enough for leading Berlin newspapers to publish warnings in which the | serious consequences of using industrial oils for cooking are stressed.

Condition Hereditary

There are various causes for flat feet, the chief being heredity. Some races are more prone to flat feet than others. Any condition that weakens the musculature of the arch may cause flat feet, It is a common result of obesity, where the load is too great for the strength of the muscles. In children, flat feet are associated with long, slender feet and other conditions like knock-knee, Contrary to popular opinion, the common footprint is not alwave a reliable index to flat feet, The condition may be recognized bv several signs. The toes point out. The foot is rotated outward. The inner aspect of the foot is down, and the outer edge is up. The inside of the shoe gets the greatest amount of wear, The lipaments on the outside of the ankle are contracted and those on the inside are stretched and weak, The foot cannot be flexed to a normal degree because the Achilles tendon is shortened, When

e of the most common foot ailments, tening of the longitudinal arch of the longitudinal arch is lost, the transverse arch gives way and painful callouses may form on the ball of the foot. The correction of flat feet is generally a long, tedious and diffi« cult business, Walking must be changed so that the toes are turned straight ahead or slightly pigeon-toed. The shoes worn should have a straight last, a fairly rigid shank, ample toe room and a moderate heel, which ean he altered so that the weight is carried on the out side of the foot instead of the inside, Fell pads may be inserted in the shoe to support the foot In a correct positipn, Bxereises designed to strengthen the muscles that support the arch are important, but must be pers formed long enough to accomsplish their objective, Exereises Help There are numerous approaches to correction of flat feet, most of them tied up with exercises, These are based on turning the toes inward and rotating the foot go that the outer edge is down, One such exercise consists of walking bare-footed across the room several times on the outside of the feet with the big toes bent downward. Anatomia defects, of course, must be corrected, and the most satisfactory results are obtained when these and numerous other problems involved are considered by the orthopedic surgeon,

Today it is announced that there will be a modification of the air] raid warning system. Although! wailing sirens will not disappear altogether, they will be blown much less frequently under a new experimental plan, As far as air attack is concerned, the authorities recognize that the Germans, even now, could raid on a nasty scale if they chose, and be-| lieve that the greatest risk of ex-| tensive damage being done lies in fire bombs. That is why fireguard | work is still regarded as an essential feature of Britain's wartime life and will be until Germany is finally defeated,
