r PAGE 6 THIS WEEK In Washington Washington, April 27 ?Opinion differ, in and out of Congress, as ft the probable efficacy of Presiden Roosevelt's new recovery program as set forth in his message to Congress and his "fireside chat" ovei the radio the same night. There a no material difference of opinion however, on some related points Much satisfaction is expressed her< over the fact that the Administration now clearly recognizes that the nation is in a serious depression and even the President's most bitter opponents are gratified at the temperate tone of his written mes sage and of his radio talkThe new program advocated bj the President is threefold. It provides for the continuance of relieJ measures, the expansion of bant credits and means of providing new work in which a large variety of in. dustries will share. Coupled with the recent authorization to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation tc lend up to a billion and a half more to business of all kinds, with fewer restrictive conditions than in the past, it is the conviction in Administration circles that the President's new plan will do the trick, stem the tide of depression and start the country off again toward the avowed goal of 80 billion dollars of an. nual income. Congress Is Cagey The relief recommendations of the President include another billion and a quarter for the W. P. A., fifty million more for the C. C. C., seventy-five millions for the National Youth Administration and 175 millions additional for the Farm Sjcut ity Administration, xne inclination of Congress is to go along with the President on this part of his program, and on that part of it calling for great expenditures for public works, provided Congress can have a say as to how and where these expenditures are to be made. Gratified as Congress is that the President in this case did not issue a peremptory order for the legislation he desires, the boys on Capitol Hill are inclined to be very cagey about giving Mr. Roosevelt another blank check. Much of the recent rebellion in Congress against the Administration has been due to the discovery that when they have voted a lump siim to be used at the President's discretion they were putting a weapon into the hands of the Executive which could be used effectively to discipline the Legislative branch of government. Nothing has been more bitterly resented by the general run of Congressmen and Senators than the spectacle of Governors and Mayors lining up at the White House to beg for allotments of public works funds, instead of coining to the Capitol to ask for favors- The traditional prerogative of Congress has been to control the "pork-barrel,'' anci the most valuable political asset of a Congressman has been his abili ty to get a good-sized slice of Federal funds expended in his home district. Fight for Prestige That is why they are scrutinizing very closely the President's proposals that they appropriate another 450 millions for the Public Works Administration, 37 millions for flood control work, 25 millions for public buildings, Treasury loans of 300 mil. lions to the Housing Administration and a billion in public works loans to states and their political subdivis ions. They want to nave tns saj as to what states and subdivisions including Congressional districts these huge sums are to be spent in rather than to hand over lump sum; which might, conceivably, be usee to gain more credit for the Executive and to discredit members of the Legislative branch who have eppos ed any part of the Executive's program. Therefore there is a strong chance that these new recovery appropria tions will not be voted without be ing "ear-marked" for specific pur poses in specific localities, thus re asserting again the independence o: Congress. ? That is still the real issue. Con gress having found that a strong body of public opinion is back of i in refusing any longer to take order from the White House without, pro test, Is inclined to maintain an< strengthen its position of independ enoe. It wants to go along with th President in every feasible plan fo economic recovery and the genera welfare, but it is more insisten than for years in forming its; owi Judgments on whether a particula program will work or not. Letter Stirs Trouble The tax bill is a case in point The Senate passed a bill which, u its judgment, removed some of th major obstacles in the way of busi ness recovery, namely the undistrib uted surplus tax and the excessiv capital gains tax. The House hai modified those to some extent bu had retained their principle in th Warranto n. North CfiroUra !

It was no go, of c( ' weeks for the miracle to happen we were ready to cast carrots out ! Of our life forever. j Well, carrots aud all the young , . spring vegetables we eat with such gusto today, even if not producers j 1 of curly hair, still do perform a ( 1 magic all their own. They are without equal for keeping us frisky and full of life. Right now is the time to toss them together in huge salads, season cunningly and serve with tangy dressings. Salad mixing is an art, a simple i one to be sure, but nevertheless an art. First of all, we recommend a wooden bowl be used, and kept exclusively for salads. Have it large enough to give plenty of room for the tossing and mixing. Then there's the seasoning of the j bowl. Rub hot olive oil into it, wipe ] off, and then rub well with a cut < clove of garlic. Repeat this several times over a period of three weeks. . It helps give to your salads an elu- ! sive but much prized tang. Some gourmets follow this up by , running a cut clove of garlic over the bowl every time they make a j green salad and that's a good Idea, j too, > Of course, having seasoned your { salad bowl with this loving care, you don't wash it all out afterward. No, indeed. Just wipe it with a c damp clean cloth?and forget any lingering New England scour-andscrub complexes you may have. s A wooden spoon and fork are 1 considered hest for mixing and toss- I tax bill which it passed. A confer- t , ence committee was engaged in try- c ing to reconcile the differences and e agree upon a compromise, when Mr. c Roosevelt took a hand with a letter 0 requesting that the House provisions on those points be retained. The 1] Senate conferees were insistent n upon their position, and consider- s able resentment of Executive inter- F ference in a purely Legislative mat- 11 1 ter is being shown by members of b both houses. v What may be done about the v President's recommendation for a E g wage-and-hour bill remains to be seen. The House committee has reported a bill which aims toward the ' eventual establishment of a fortyhour week with a minimum wage of forty cents an hour by statute. Best opinion here is that it will not be ( passed at this session. On the rest \ of the President's new proposals, c such as removing the exemptions from income taxes on State and t Federal salaries, eliminating the s tax-emption provision from all fu- c > 4 1 ^ ; i ; j ?

In the past, woolen garments ^ were packed away with dozens of moth balls. However, modern re- { - search has shown that moth balls, I cedar boxes and other repellants I cannot be relied upon to prevent! i s eggs already present from hatching.! ] Moths do not damage garments;1] i it is the larvae or caterpillars which ; - develop from the tiny eggs deposit- < e ed by the moths which shred cloth- ] r ing. ] I The best method for taking care II of woolen garments is dry cleaning < i I a xi x-x I ana tnurougniy pressing, alter wnicn i r the clothing is hung in moth-proof bags. Articles which do not hang, such j as blankets, may be moth-proofed, < i wrapped in paper and put away in < e chests or on high closet shelves-i ] - Most-proofing solutions are avail- j - able on the market and should be ( e j sprayed directly on the garments. < i Before putting away garments, t' housewives should remember that e fresh air and sunshine are two of i 1 T1 t's {SELVES big SALAD i re mixed it is it tastes I ! hy Greig ig we nibbled raw carrots every e impression they would turn Is.

However, if you have a light hand and toss gently with a proper respect for your in^reaients, you can probably use a metal spoon and fork and no harm done. Now for the salad itself: Mixed Spring Salad with Tomato-French Dressing 1 head lettuce 8 radishes 3 stalks celery 2 scallions 3 tomatoes % cucumber V2 bunch watercress % cup Tomato-French Dressing All greens should have been kept in the refrigerator at least two hours or until thoroughly crisp and told. The lettuce may be broken in pieces, which is the French method, jr cut in pieces or shredded. Radshes, scallions, cucumbers should he sliced. Celery?use tender stalks md cut into pieces about 1 inch ong and *4 inch wide. Cut each omato down in 6 or 8 wedge shaped hieces. 11! large, cut each wedge in lalf.

All artiles should first be cleaned, repaird, and brushed well, and then put iut in the sun and air for at least ne day. After that they should be examlied thoroughly to make sure no icths or eggs are present before toring. Large, unbroken pieces of aper make good wrapping materal, and the end laps or folds should e seale d with gummed tape to preent breaks or openings through rtiich the moths may enter.

Mann, Dare lounty farmer, put into a poultry renture this spring, he took out two, tne of which was clear profit. C. W. Overman, farm agent of he State College Extension Service, aid th.s Manns Harbor farmer be-j :ame interested in the poultry bus-j ness after attending an Extension >oultrv school in his community. Following instructions from the] arm agent, Mr. Mann converted an )ld shelter into a serviceable 300:hick brcoder house. He also made i brooder, feeders, and water fountain. Shortly after the first of the year, le purchased 100 pure bred Rhode [sland chicks- A good starting mash vas fed the first four weeks and plenty of water kept near the feeders. At the end of four weeks, the ihicks were gradually shifted to a jood growing mash, and at six veeks the cockerels were removed ;o a separate pen and fed grain also. Upon completing his broiler project March 1, Mr. Mann sold 55 aroilers and friers weighing 128 pounds for $38.30. He had 45 pullets left which average in weight 21-2 pounds each and would have sold for $33.75 on the market. Thus tie had a gross income of $72.05 on his project. Feed, brooder fuel, and chicks cost ?35.50, leaving a net return of more than one dollar for' each dollar inrested. in roic_ JVir. IViailll Wito IWiiuiiavg in ing 100 per cent of his chicks, Agent Overman said. He has started a second lot of chicles, and will follow with a new lot every four weeks in order to have a continuous supply Df broilers and fryers for sale this summer. * The impossible is depressing instead of stimulating. 3E WARREN RECOl I is>j* 1. Season wooden bowl with hot olive oil and garlic. 2. Toss salad with light hand but enough to coat each leaf with the dressing. 3. Serve crisp and cold. lightly with the dressing. Serves 6-8. The dressing is made this way and it's a particularly good one for this type of salad.

Tlie exalted uplift of the Trans figuration was followed by a chai acteristic act of human sympath; the healing of the epileptic bo; Mark relates this appealing incider in great detail. His vivid portrays makes the scene very life-like. We note the striking contrast be tween the heavenly joy and radianc of the glorious vision on the mcun tain top and the confusion, impc tence and disability of the pitifi scene below. At once we think c | Moses who, after talking intimatel i with God on Sinaia, came down t j face the unexpected and disiressin idolatry of the people who had got ten out of hand and were worship ping a golden calf. So Jesus er countered a noisy, quarrelsom group centered about a pitiful cas cf human need for the relief c which his disciples could do notl ing. Note the hopelessness of the dig tracted father. Discouraged by tl: failure of ihe disciples he dared nc expect a cure for his son so de; perately ill. But the Master, 1: quiet talk, gave him welcome reas surance. "To him who believ< everything in possible," he insistei | Consider also the emphasis o prayer. After the cure was con pleted the disciples privately aske the Master why they had failei "Nothing," he replied, "can mai i mis Kind come out but prayer." W are tempted in this age of undi deference to science to underest: mate the power of prayer. Pres ' dent Eliot, of Harvard, struck th right note when he said that he re garded prayer as "the transcender act of human intelligence." And h was a scientist! Finally, notice the inevitable se quence of vision and task. It isn enough to attend church or sum mer Conference and thereby dwel for a moment, on the mountai heights of inspiration. Too often on religious aspirations are unconnecl ed with our daily duties. An age Scotsman gave wise advice to Davi ' Livingstone when he said, "Nov lad, make religion the everyda business of your life, and not thing of fits and starts." Renew your subscription.
