Nanking, May 23. President Chiang Kai-shek's difficulty in selecting a now Prime Minister to head the executivo branch of the Government was rogarded by observers hora today as reflecting the 'mani- fold problems in Notionalist China which combine to make the Premiership an extreme- ly unenviable position.

The fast deteriorating situation in the financial, economic, political and military fields, which hove placed the National Government in an almost helpless position, has hardened the Premier, General Chong Chun's, determina- tion to retire and has caused the Premiership to lose its appeal to anyone who might be chosen as his successor, these observers said.

Malnutrition Due To Ignorance, Not Poverty

Baltimore, May 23.

The amount of money you have to spend on food is not as important as the way you spend it. Bad nutrition is usually the rosult of ignor- ance, not poverty. This is the opinion of Dr. Clarence Valet of the Public Health Service, engaged in surveying Mary land's food habits. The sur- vey is the first undertaken op
