PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 30 (UP) The Veterans of Foreign Wars' 42nd annual encampment ended officially last night, but a violent convention dispute centering around Earl South ard. Illinois department commander, todav threatened to go into the courts. The anti-climax to a convention that saw two days of heated wrang ling over American foreign policy was threatened by William J. Grave, past Illinois department commander, who led the fight to have Southard reinstated at the encampment after being found guilty of disloyalty in connection with the affairs of the Keep America Out of War commit tee. Southard, who was severely repri manded by National Commander Jo seph C. Menendez, New- Orleans, re fused to accept reinstatement offer ed by the V. F. W. leader. Grace, who acted as spokesman for Southard, said he and the Illinois commander are -planning to bring LINCOLN, Aug. 30 (UP) The man who will succeed Joseph O'Grady as warden at the Nebraska peniten tiary Monday believes criminals can be made to fit society with a rehabili tation plan made to fit the criminal. During his five years as deputy warden, 48-year-old Neil Olson has studied the state's No. 1 penal institu tion from every conceivable angle. He has concluded that education is the essential factor in helping a man re habilitate himself. "The important thing in a peniten tiary is to do something for the in mate not just keep him there," Olson explained. "If a man leaves the in stitution without having regained some of his self respect, then the time he served was lost. The incoming warden never speaks in terms of "criminals" and "prison ers." To him they're all men and he treats them as such. Olson knows the individual history behind every man in the institution. While serving as deputy, he has made the personal acquaintance of every inmate. Dist. 11 Francis J. Leiner, dir.; (Ervin Heier Leo Roddy, mod.; Lloyd Younker, mann treas'. "eas. Dist. 66 W. H.

FORT FRANCIS, Ontario, Aug. 30 (UP) A provincial policeman and members of his family were found shot to death today, and authorities said they apparently were victims of a triple slaying and suicide. The dead were Policeman Kenneth Patterson, 43, his wife, 35, their son, Duane Louis, 9, and their daughter, Patricia, 11. Police were called to the Patter son home after two boys reported finding the bodies of the mother and father near the back door steps of the house. Patterson's revolver was found by his side, and Crown County Attorney Norman Croome said he apparently shot his wife and children and then fired a bullet into his own head. Friends and relatives said Patterson, who was transferred here from Fort Arthur only three weeks ago, had been in failing health. GREAT LAKES, 111. (UP) It's pretty sad when veteran navy men who have "practically been living on beans" have to get shore leave to sat isfy their craving. Eut, that's the situation at the U. S. Naval Training Station here, if Dole's word for it. Dole, commissary officer, declares that the menu boasts such a variety that navy beans find a spot on it "only about once a week." And chief petty officers and "old salts" bemoan the passing of the old order. "Thev'd like beans for every meal especially breakfast," Dole said, "Naw men rret ud earlv and do most of their work before breakfast. delicate cereal isn't any good after that. The best appeaser for that kind of an appetite is three or four plate fuls of steaming navy beans with gobs of ketchup." The navy department's recent an nouncement that it planned to buy 8,580,000 pounds of navy beans was cheering news to old-timers here. "That's equal in weight to two gun boats," Dole said.

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 30 (UP) Constance Bennett, one of the screen's best dressed actresse?, today warned women that short skirt styles made it advisable for them to cross their ankles, instead of their legs. "When sitting, never cross the legs skirts are too short for that." Miss Pennett advised in a series of tips on how to wear new abbreviated models. "For grace cross the ankles instead." Her other suggestions: 1. Stand with the spine straight against a wall. Walk away. That's correct porture. 2. For perfect streamlining let the arms fall naturally at '.he sides. Never stand with hands on hips. 3. Always stand very straight when wearing the new evening clothes. They are not designed for vouchers. at Tayler.

Tobey- CHECK PLANES FOR SABOTAGE B3EZ "VfOW that beneficial vitamins n have been added to our bread, flour, milk, and other foods, some people have asked if there is any possibility of getting too many vita mins. Not at all. No one need be concerned about a sur plus of vita- mins. The real problem is to n.Jame.A.Tobe7 enough ol these neces sary nutrients in your daily diet. There is no possibility of ob taining too many vitamins from any one food, or from any com bination of foods in a mixed diet. Where vitamins are added to staple roods, the effect is simply to restore these nutrients to foods which have lost some of them through processing. Consider the new enriched bread. This white bread contains added vitamin Bl, vitamin B2, and the B vitamin known as nico tinic acid. These vitamins are re stored to the level of whole wheat, so that two slices of enriched bread at every meal furnish you about a third of your daily needs for these important vitamins. The remainder comes from other foods, such as meat and properly cooked vegetables. The only way you could get an overdose of vitamins would be by taking too many vitamin pills or concentrates at one time. Even then the danger would be slight, as some of the extra vitamins are stored in the body. Such vitamin pills should, however, be used only on a doctor's prescription Recently a mild flurry was caused when a physician was re ported as saying in a lecture be-" fore a medical society that too much of one vitamin caused trouble when given to persons in the tropics. What happened was that very large doses of a medi cinal concentrate of this one vita min were given to individuals in the tropics suffering from severt deficiencies of several vitamins. Vitamins are, of course, only part of the complete story of nu trition, although an important part. To be well-nourished, you need carbohydrates and fats for energy, proteins for body-building, minerals for body processes, and fluids as regulators, as wall as a good quota of vitamins. It is generally much raore diffi cult to get these vitamins it is to get too many.
