Korean Division
For Atomic Aize
WASHINGTON, UP—'The Arma
is beginning this month to revamp
one of its two divisions in Korea
into the streamlined “pentomic”
organization for atomic age war
fare.
It announced today a start on
reorganization of the 7th Infan
try, “to increase its capability to
meet the demands of modern
warfare.”
This is the ninth division to be
• designated for reorganization to
the five-element structure under
which infantry divisions are re
duced from a present strength of
17,460 to 13,748 men, with five
“battle groups” taking the place
of the conventional three-regi
ment structure.
The over-all program for or
ganizing the pentomic division
calls for supplying them with
weapons of atomic capability—
such as the Honest John rocket,
the Corporal guided missile, and
the eight-inch howitzer.
Atomic-capable arms are not
being sent to the 7th Division at
this time, but new weapons and
equipment is going into Korea in
line with the U.S. decision to sus
pend that part of the truce agree
ment which forbade any modern
ization on cither side.
The U.S. last month accused
the Korean and Chinese Commu
nists of a long continuing and
widespread disregard of that por
tion of the truce terms, told them
it was proceeding with moderni
zation of equipment for its air
and ground forces in Korea.

VITAMINS
AND
MINERALS
After one look at the crammed shelves in a U.S. supermarket, a well
traveled European agreed that the American epithet “Land of Plenty”
was an apt one. But she would have been puzzled to hear leading nutri
tionists state that many Americans are poorly nourished.
reesearcn nas provea mat tne
family board may gpoan with the
weight of heaped platters — and
still be light weight when it comes
to vitamins and minerals. The
family cook, it seems, is often
short-changed by Mother Nature
and, oddly enough, by her own ef
forts to make a palatable dish.
Two tomatoes may look decep
tively alike, but one may have as
little as one third the vitamin con
tent of the othei;. Then too, when
those tomatoes are stewed, the
elusive vitamins often break down
— or are poured into the sink with
the cooking water.
Disheartening as these nutri
tional facts may be, there’s no need
to harbor a grudge against Nature
or revert to a caveman’s menu of
raw food. Thanks to science, you
can take your vitamins and miner
als, along with those heaping plat
r
ters, in a tidy little capsule or tab
let. You can even buy candy-flav
ored supplements like Viterra
Tastitabs that appeal to even the
youngest diner in the house.
But rooting out careless eating
habits may not be so simple. Too
many figure-conscious women sac
rifice healthy foods to shed a few
pounds. More often than not, teen
agers, always on the go, satisfy
their hunger with soft drinks or
candy. Children — and men — can
be mighty finicky about the foods
they will and will not eat.
Setting an attractive table will
help. Make it an iron-clad rule
that everyone come to the table on
time. Keep mealtime conversation
cheerful. A well-balanced menu
and well-balanced family relations
make the table a center of family
health and happiness.
Railway Express Drivers
In Seven Cities Voting
On Plan to End Strike
WASHINGTON, UP—Drivers of
the Railway Express Agency in
seven cities are voting on a pro
posal to settle their 85-day strike.
The National Mediation Board
said here that “a tentative under
standing” was reached Friday be
tween the express agency and
the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters. About 3,500 drivers
are involved in Cleveland, Chi
cago, Cincinnati, Newark, Phila
delphia. San Francisco and St.
Louis.
A union official said it may be
Wednesday or Thursdav before
the drivers in each city area com
plete voting on the proposal. De
tails of *he proposed settlement
were kept secret pending out
come of the voting.
However, it was believed here
the settlement comes close to the
26V2 cents an hour raise in wag
es and other benefits that has
been the basis for labor settle
ments bv most railroad employes.
