Nixon’s peace plan
formally rejected
TOKYO (A*)—North Vietnam on
Thursday labeled President Nix
on’s Indochina peace plan “a de
ceptive maneuver” and a “fraud”
in what appeared to be total re
jection of the president’s cease
fire initiative.
The statement, issued as the
Paris peace conferees prepared
to meet Thursday for the second
time on the Nixon plan, was
more sweeping than earlier at
tacks on the proposals made Oct.
7 by the President.
Hanoi’s Vietnam News Agency,
in a broadcast monitored here,
said the statement was issued by
the North Vietnamese foreign
ministry.
The Nixon proposal does not
“at all contribute to the peace
ful settlement of the Indochinese
problem but only serves the
scheme to prolong and expand its
aggressive war in Indochina,” it
said.
Referring to Nixon’s proposal
to convene a Geneva-type inter
national conference on Indochi
na, the statement said it is “noth
ing but a cunning trick aimed at
fooling public opinion, hiding the
fact that the United States is
obdurately maintaining its ag
gressive stand against Vietnam,
Laos and Cambodia.
“The key question is that the
United States must change its
policy and end its aggression
against the three Indochinese
countries,” it said.
The statement added: “the Viet
namese people are resolved to
endure all sacrifices and hard
ships, persist in and promote the
fight on the military, political
and diplomatic fronts till complete
victory.”
Poor nutrition may
cause retardation
There is increasing evidence
that malnutrition in children,
particularly in the first year of
life, can lead to mental retarda
tion, members of the 25th annual
Texas Nutrition Conference
learned here last Wednesday.
There is even some suspicion
that such conditions may also
cause social misbehavior in later
life.
Dr. Paul B. Pearson, president
of the Nutrition Foundation in
New York City, said the prob
lem is heightened by the fact
that more than half of the
world’s 70 million babies born
this year will suffer from poor
nutrition within the next two
years.
He said the latest scientific
thought, backed by preliminary
research, is that the human brain
is sensitive to malnutrition when
it is growing fastest, or from
birth to about 1 year.
Equally as serious, the speak-
er pointed out, is the possibility TN
that damage during this peri'- ’
may be permanent. Many st
ies have already shown ti. „ v
brain impairment is irreversible BAT
in a wide variety of test animals.
“There is more evidence that
this also occurs in humans,”
Pearson said. “Over half of the
people living in the world today
suffered from malnutrition dur
ing childhood. The full inherent
capacity of these people to be
come productive and useful citi
zens may never be attained.”
Lack of proper foods during
that first year of development
apparently affects brain cell de
velopment. The speaker pointed
to recent Cornell University tests
on children who had received ade
quate and inadequate diets.
“Nucleic acid and protein analy
sis indicated that there waTS
marked reduction in the number
of cells in the brains of all mal
nourished children studied. This
reduction was extrfernely marked
in some ( es, with the number
of brain s be'.ig less than 60
percent ?ma|,” he lained.
