Connally: "Congress ought to until all danger stay right here of involving the United States in No one war has disappeared can determine the question of war or peace but congress and I know not do

rehabilitation is well buried in committee Some think the issue may be compromised in the interest of a shorter session EUROPE: Appeasement TEXAS’ TOM CONNALLI "Congress out to Hay right hero" senate and house investigators seem compromised on the administration’s "cash and carry" neutrality to permit arms sales to warring nations Probable modifications: (1) elimination of a clause forcing the President to invoke neutrality within 30 days (2) insertion of a clause permitting continued shipping to outskirts of a belligerent's territory if outside the danger zone Since England and France would control the Atlantic in wartime thus being enabled to pay cash and carry off U S arms the bill would subtly answer Reichsfuehrer Hitler's snub of President Roosevelt But Japan Hitler’s friend could control the Pacific which neutralizes the effect of neutrality Defense attention focuses on aviation the President asking congress for $206502500 to expand the army's air corps and bolster Panama canal fortifications Meanwhile Col Charles A Lindbergh has urged immediate expansion of aviation research facilities in which the U S now trails Germany Britain Italy and France As a result

taxes and the undivided profits levy the latter expiring this year and currently yielding about This brought retort from $56000000 Mr Doughton whose ways and means committee has not abandoned hope of general tax revision The problem: President Roosevelt and his cohorts have agreed not to shift the load from large shoulders Chamber Keynoted President George H Davis Kansas City grain man: "It seems

complex which nutritionists call B There is both experimental and clinical evidence that this vitamin is essential for maintethe nance of a keen appetite In addition it is also required for the normal functioning of the digestive tract so that it must be provided in sufficient amounts if food is to be utilized to best advantage Among the foods which supply this vitamin are whole grain' cereals bran eggs milk peas beans carrots spinach and cabbage It is also found in many fruits though usually in lesser amounts In general a most satisfactory way to insure a liberal intake of the vitamin is to include in the diet generous amounts of whole grain cereals milk vegetables and As these foods likewise fruits contribute many other necessary substances they rate a prominent place in the dietary meal appeals to the appetite and provides substantial amounts of minerals and vitamins Salads Twice a Day A crisp appetizer salad makes a good beginning for the main meal of the day-combination of watercress dandelion greens lettuce or shredded cabbage with fruit or a small amount of a savory fish paste will intrigne the most reluctant appetite And when the salad is served at the beginning of a meal you can be sore that it will be eaten before the hunger is satisfied Another way to get additional vegetables into a meaL is la mold them in gelatin and serve as a dinner salad Or an assortment of fruits can be treated in the same way and used as a combination If prepared salad and dessert gelatin desserts are used a wide variety of color and flavor combinations can be achieved with very little effort and children will eat them with relish You’ll be surprised to discover how quickly interest can be stimulated by serving familiar foods in a new way!
