Says Appetite Factor In Feeding lihildren

WAISHINGION. Dec. i8 —(A.P) ._'Believe it or not, ice cream ranks only No. 4 on the dietary hit par- ade of kids under ﬁve-

Glven s. free choice of diet. says Dr. Harry Bakwin of the pedia- trics department. New York Uni- versity College oi Medicine, young children rate foods in this order.

Meat, butter, fruits, ice cream,

milk.

Their attitude toward vegetables "dlifers Just as does adults," he ' says, and raw vegetables are often preferred. Cereal is the food most often refused and it may be safely omitted from the diet."

Bakwin discusses ways and means o! dealing with cases of poor appetite in pre-school young- sters in he Journal oi Pediatric-l-

One o his hot tips to parents‘. "There should be n0 inSIStBIW-e on this or that food. The food likes and dislikes oi children should be respected Just as In adults." Let ‘emeat fried or highly- seasoned foods sauces and gravles i! they want such, says the d0CLOi\ and —“food should be prepared in- ierestingly."

"Parents should be urged to tor- get calories, vitamins and mineral and rely on the child's appeﬂte. it is reasonable to assume that we were endowed with appetite 1or porno purpose." _' '

(Bakwin told I. reporter he meant by this that children if giv~ m their ireo choice of food whole- some foods. would he guided --hy appetite in select an adequately

balanced diet.)

The doctor says poor appetite may stem from some deep-seated emotional disturbance or be the aftermath o! some acute infection.

Other causes:

But, if your child is healthy and emotionally stable -- and still isn't eating much - here are some other causes, together with Balowins suggestions for treatment:

1. The need for food is less be» tween the ages of one and five compared with the needs of the 1n- iant. During the first year oi lilo. a child gains about 15 pounds. tripling its birth weight.

But between one and iive tho child has an annual average weight gain of only about live pounds. Hence corresponding‘ to the rein.- tively slow weight gain, there's a smaller appetite.

2. A child may reiuse to eat. even though. hungry. lust because he knows it will get his mother riled up.

Bakwin warns against trying to force the child, or to bribe or re- ward him. Just put the iood out, leave it there a reasonable length of time. then remove it without comment or show o! emotion. if the child requests something be- tween meals -a cracker, rruit or the like-give it to him.

3. Poor training habits-in eat- ing may have affected Butchh ap- petite.

4. Mothers who continue to teed their children alter they're able to feed themselves raise another proo- iem. Bsicwin says kids like to feed themselves sud if denied this, they get balky.

5. Entertainment at mealtime .s generally overdone. Hence, don't go into excessive antics tn entice the child to eat.

HALIFAX. Dec. 1B - '16P) - A newspaper report that "someone had beneﬁted" as l. result of the Government's decontrol order on grain was backed today in stats- ments issued by two Maritime farm organizations.

C. T. liiitzrandolph. Bridgetown,

‘N. 8., secretary o! the Nova 5w- tla Farmers Association. said "somebody beneﬁted by $15,000,000 of un-earned money when ceilings were lifted."

In another statement the Mori- time Federation of Agriculture agreed that speculators had bene- ﬂted largely from the decontrol order.

(In Winnipeg yesterday, stanley N. Jones, president oi the Viinni- peg grain exchange. termed the newspaper report "iantastic.")

Mr. Htzrandoiph said "evidence clearly shows that it wasn't the farmers or the consumers who benefited from the decontroi and f-he opening of the grain exchange. It was the speculative groin trade.”

The Winnipeg he said, was one oi fantastic organizations in Canada today" and it was “be- yond comprehension" why the grain exchange should be allow- ed “to- re-open and. gamble on the bread o1 the consumers and the products o! the producers."

Roy Grant, secretary of the Maritime Federation of Agricul- ture. said operation of the ex- change was “not in the interests of either the producer or the con- sumnr an! can only serve the speculative end of the business."

The Federation, he said, believed "that the speculative trade did profit very largely by holding grain prior to the decontrol ord-
