DANGER OF DIRTY MILK
FAR BETTER TO DRINK WINE LIVELY CONTROVERSY IN AFRICA United Press Association—By Electrto Telegraph—Copyright (Received Novembex 24, 10.15 p.m.) LONDON, November 4. “Dr. Louis Leipoldt, secretary of the South African Medical Council, and a well-known dietitian, is advertising for identical twins on which to experiment to determine the relative food values of milk and wine,” says the Capetown correspondent of “The Times.” Dr. Leipoldt, at the opening of a recent wine show, caused a stir by declaring that it was better to drink wine than dirty milk. Throughout the world, he said, the propaganda for milk was founded on the mistaken idea of food values. “Milk Is food for people without teeth. A few raisins and a slice of bread is a better meal.” Protests against these statements led to the plan of an experiment with twins who will be given free board and lodging but no payment. The winegrowers are co-operating In the experiment which is controlled by the Medical Committee.
