Rejected Cheese
Sir, —In supporting Mr Armstrong, I would point out that while all sorts of ludicrous excuses are offered fhe public for the new diseases appearing in soil, plant, animal, and man, thousands of tons of sulphuric super phosphate, D.D.T., and a host of other destructive chemicals are being used The rhythm of natural evolution is prostituted. So much calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, capper, manganese, zinc, cobalt, iron, boron, iodine, sulphur, sodium, nitrogen, etc., should go to the acre, in addition to humic content. Of such are our bodies comnosed. or supposed to be. Why not spend all the millions at the health end instead of at the hospital end? We subsidise the genesis of disease with destructive chemicals. Unless swift changes are made hospitalisation is going to be big business. Such myopic policies are symptomatic of a dying socio-economic order. — Yours, etc.. W. J. COLLINS February 10, 1062.
