“MY TWENTY-FOUR HOURS” By Benito Mussolini, Premier of Italy THOMAS B. MORGAN, RomeManager of the United Press Copyright 1927 by United Press Associations. All rights reserved.

Experience has taught just what and how much I} should eat. I know the penalty for | over-eating. We pay for it in lack of vigor, reduction of energy and T wear and tear of the body cells.

We cannot gorge primitively and work modernly any more than we can work primitively and eat hat modern man should. ! In my own problem of dict, T have | lieen guided largely by what exper ence has taught me. I am not a physician and do not give out rules of general application by which | overyone should be guided. T have | studied my own particular case and I know what foods agree with me, sive me the greatest net results in health and productivi I am not an expert nutrition. I do not know the intricacies of the chemical and physiological reactions, but I do know the general effects of the vari- | ous foods, especially on myself. It is therefore in the light of this e perience that I discipline my eating that it may serve me to the enhance- ment of my mental and physical faculties, rather than that I should serve it at the painful cost of ail- ment and lethargy. He Eats for the Nerves We have advanced so far that we can choose our food with referenc to our needs. The brain-worker's | needs differ from those of the manu- al worker. The former requires | nerve nourishment; the latter, cle sustenance. brain-wor us- The r can defeat the ends for which he eats by unwise cho and large quantitics. The stomach must not be overtaxed. The blood rush those parts of the body where work is being dome. If hard work is quired of the stomach, it requ lions the blood in this e The brain is then left impoveris and ope only with partial eff cieney until it, in turn, can muster sufficient blood to meet the particu- lar requixement. I therefore seck a diet making but small .demand on the physigue bt permitting generou ssistance to the nervous system and the brain. To begin with, T deny my f\ and wine, Coifee is never me at any meal. I perfectly agree with those who regard it as a drug.

It big in proportion to my other meals but a mere snack compared with the ay of fancy courses served home of high estate. I take but o <h and that dish is composed of the simplest possible ingredients. The cooking is simple. there are no sauces, gravies, dre ings or other claborate fixings. Ther is a small piece of meat, plain sted or fried, or a small piece of . bolled or fried. There are green tables, — elther ome spinach, on beans or celer: simply ed in water, never dressed in a fancy way nor splattered with but- ter. The simpler this food is cook- | od the better it conserves its nour- | jshment. There is never a dessert.| After the one dish, I may take an apple or a pear but nothing more. Cook Makes Own Menu ira, my cook, who is the only servant, 1 have and who perfor the manifold functions of maid, | waitress and those of any other do- mestics, knows how simple every- | thing has to be.

We were faced with the problem of importing a large part of our wheat trom abroad and set out scientifically to find a bread which would serve the needs of our people and, at the same time solve the question of Italy's limited pock- ctbook. The bread we eat now is of a standard quality. There is not one kind for the workingman, and another kind for the rich. e bread has been abolished. The new bread is made of coarser tlour and is very nutritious. It is brown in color, resembling the whole w breads of America. The white breads were of too fine a texture. Our new bread is compatible both with di- gestion and with the functions of e intestines to a much greater de- gree than the fine white bread, which sometimes caused prolonged | ailments very difficult to diagnos: Our new bread has been received ¢ all classes of people with t enthusiasm and never has a estion been made to return to , nor even a proposal advanced to allow the making of cas such hotels, where a large s flock every year. is just as popular ts as amongst our as in the number of tour | Our new bread with the touri: people.
