HAPPY KITCHEN
AIM OF SCHOOL
A definite knowledKe of food Is
nt'cesbary for success in cooking.
There is no more enticing fate
than to be able to really know about
foods and to be oble to prepare deli
cious, toothsome delicacies. The
averuie purson doesn't have a
chance to go into such ecstacles
very often and so many cooks balk
at the idea of fixing anything
special except on rare occasions.
As a remedy for this all house
wives should attend the free cook
ing school being sponsored by the
Capital Journal in the Armory be
ginning next week, Wednesday,
April 25. and continuing for three
days. Tlie hours are from 2 to 4
o'clock. Under the adroit hand of
Miss Florence Henry, Home Ser
vice director for the Grand Cen
tral Public market in Portland, who
will conduct the school here, foods
that may have lacked personality
for the housewife will immediately
dcvelope allure and appetite ap
peal. So, another good succestion
is donl forget your paper and
pencil! You'll want to get acquain
ted with these foods.
Miss Henry is building her lecture
around a "Happy Kitchens" Idea
and will stress important facts
dealing with modern kitchens, mod
ern equipment and modern house
wives. Her recipes are her own
strictly original and have been
testrd in her experimental kitchen
in Portland. Outstanding features
will be oven dinners and the use of
the Thrift Cooker.
ri.hes prepared during the two
hours' session each day will be giv
en away and special gifts will' be
distributed by various manufactur

JAPAN'S ACTION
Nanking. China. April 21 WP
Despite reassurances by the na
tionalist government, heightened
tension between Japan and China
became apparent today.
Tlie question of Japan's so-called
Asiatic "Monroe Doctrine" was
placed flatly at the doors of the
ministry of foreign affairs in the
shape of a demand from the legis
lative yuan to be Informed what
is going on in high places,
Wang Ching-Wel, foreign min
ister, appeared personally before
them and gave definite assurance
that neither Chiang Kai-Shek,
head of the government, nor Hu
ang Fu, commissioner for North
China, was "paying any attention"
to Japan's recent hands-off China
pronouncement.
Additionally he informed the le
gislators that, the national govern
ment would enter no negotiations
smacking of recognition of Man
chukuo. But the recent Japanese note as
suming responsibility for keeping
peace in Asia (by force if necessary)
remains the sole topic of conversa
tion, both in and out of govern
ment circles.
The vernacular press, which up
to this time has been silent on the
subject, loosened up today with a
torrent of caustic condemnation of
the Japanese statement, and also
asked with suspicion what the na
tionalist government was doing
about It and why Huang Fu was
repeatedly confeiTing in secret
with high Japanese officials In
China.

EDltlslPUT
ON CHILD ISSUE
Washington, April 21 (LP) The
American Society of Newspaper
Editors today elected a new board
of directors and assigned to, the
incoming officials the responsibility
of proposing a formal policy to
ward the newspaper guild organiza
tion of reportorial and editorial
employes.
Efforts to deal with the guild pol
icy question by resolution failed to
day. The editors in annual conven
tion tied 28 to 28, and it finally
was referred to the new board of
directors.
The resolution expressed sym
pathy with the movement to Im
prove the economic security and
ethical standards of reporters and
editorial writers but objected that
the guild should not be a part of
trade unionism.
"If the mutuality of interests be
tween publisher, editor and reporter
is lost," the resolution said, "by an
editorial swing to organized union
labor, it will be Impossible to main
tain open, free thinking channels
of news."
The resolution recommended ser
ious study of the guild movement
and "interested participation" by
society members with the younger
men to get more for themselves
and give more to their Jobs.
Directors elected today were: M.
V. Atwood, Gannett Newspapers,

POST IN SENATE
Portland, April 21 f His resig
nation as state senator from Clack

counties was submitted late Friday
by Joe E. Dunne, candidate for the
republican nomination as governor.
He also resigned as port of Port
land port commissioner.
"I am prompted to take this ac
tion," Dunne said in a letter to Go
vernor Meier, "for tlie reason that
I am now a candidate for the re
publican nomination for governor
and am a firm believer in the pol
icy that when a mun becomes a
candidate for any office, except to
succeed himself, that he should re
sign from any and all other politi
cal offices he may occupy."
Inasmuch as I want to be free
from even the taint of suspicion,"
he concluded, "I am taking this ac

that the offices from which he re
signed were non-salaried.

CURRY OUSTED
BY TAMMANY
SPURNS PEACE
New York. April 21 lP John T.
Curry, having achieved the dubi
ous distinction of being the first of
a long succession of Tammany
bosses to be fired, surveyed the
wreckage of his political llie today,
a fallen war lord who had been out
maneuvered at every turn.
His enemies gave him credit for
one attribute. He was a fighter.
He fought to the last minutes, dog
gedly, blindly, when he was quite
aware defeat was certain. These
same enemies were none too sure he
had decided not to fight further.
It still was possible he might go
into court aud try to regain the
mantle of Boss Tweed.
He saw political loyalties that
were a generation iu the making
snapped like dusty firewood as
Tammany cast him abide for a
leader capable of keeping the wig
wam in power. He was dismissed
at dusk last night in one of the
most dramatic scenes of Tammany's
long and glamorous history. While
his friends, some of whom had
voted agauist him pleaded with
him to resign to save the dishonor
of being voted out, tlie will te -haired,
aging leader stuboornly refused.
When the roll call began every
vote was for his ouster, until Cur
ry's name was readied. He cast
a firm "nay."
When the balloting reached Mrs.
S adit a Wilson, of the 20 th district.
she broke Into tears and said: "I
can't vote against Mr. Curry. He
has been too good for me." The
leader, of her district gave her
permission to vote for Curry.
When tabulators retired to form
ally count tlie ballots. Curry's
friends made a last desperate ap
peal for him to resign. In that
event a vote would not have been
recorded.
The veteran politician was ada
mant. He looked squarely into tlie
the eyes of the men who voted
against him men who for years
had been his comrades. His voice
was bitter as he recalled past fa
vors Visibly affected but still
firm, he refused to step out.
SUN SPOT TORNADO
INDICATES STORMS
San Francisco, April 21 LP Sud
den and severe changes in weather
conditions were predicted today by
two prominent astronomers because
of the presence on the sun of a gi
gantic spot 16,000 miles in width.
To Earle G. Llnsley of Chabot
observatory, Mills College, andn Dr.
Albert Newlin, protege of Father
Ricard, Padre of the rains, the spot
meant forthcoming storms, rains,
electrical disturbances and sudden
climatic changes.
They observed the spot for the
nrst time yesterday. It will take 12
days for the spot, visible now to
small telescopes, to cross the face
of the sun.
Llnsley called It a "sun spot tor
nado" whirling at terrific speed
across the sun.
Newlin, carrying on at Santa
Clara university the researches of
Father Ricard, said that the spot
marked the beginning of a "big
spot" era, which in tlie next nine
to 12 years would cause changes in
both weather and sun conditions.
FIRE HAZARD IN
FORESTS INCREASE
An unusually early forest fire ha
zard existed in the state, and al
ready additional men have been
placed in some districts. State For
ester Lynn F. Cronemiller said to
day. The conditions have been caus
ed by the early warm season this
year.
Six additional men were placed in
the Douglas county unit today and
others have been added in southern
Oregon. A 30-acre fire was reported
in Douglas county this week. Five
new fire reports scattered over this
area were made to tlie headquarters
here.
Cronemiller said slashing fires at
this time of year also caused un
controlled fires, and he issued a
warning astalnst carelessness.
