LIQUOR
Anti-ProhlbitionlsU continue to
urge the revision of the Volstead
Act to permit the sale of "light
wines and beer," as if that would
solve the whole liquor question. It
would not, for the simple reason
that, as a nation, we have been
whiskey drinkers for a century or
more. Before that we were rum
drinkers. The real prohibition
problem, as President Hoover once
stated it, is the control of "hard
liquor." Every nation in the world
is trying to And a way to do that
The early English settlers in
America were beer drinkers at
home. The Pilgrim Fathers tried
importing beer, but it did not keep
well at sea. They found the soil
of the Atlantic seaboard inhospita
ble to the barley and hops of their
native England, and began to sat
isfy their demand for alcohol by
importing rum from the sugar
plantations of the West Indies.
Rum ia made from molasses. The
Puritans soon began to import the
molasses and make their own rum.
, "Medford rum," made in Massachu
setts, became the national drink in
Colonial times.
With the opening of the Ohio
River country, which began after
the French and Indian war, great
grain crops were grown with no
means of transporting them to mar
ket. The most economical way out
was to convert the grain Into whis
key, for cheap transportation. By
the middle of the 19th century
whiskey had become our national
drink.
The great German immigration
began in 1848. The Germans
brought their brewers. Lager beer,
quite a different thing from Eng
lish beer, began to be brewed. Even
tually the brewers gained control
of the saloons, but whiskey still re
mained the popular drink.
In the middle 1800's a great grape
district developed in Western New
York and Eastern Qhio, and a wine
industry was started. Later Cali
fornia became a great wine produc
ing state. But Americans still
drank whiskey by preference.
To legalize wine and beer will not
change that national taste.
WAR
I think most of the philosophers
economists, statesmen and theorists
who are trying to account for the
present world-wide business and in
dustrial depression fail to go back
far enough. The world is suffering

today from the consequences of the
war of -1914-18 and from nothing
else in particular.
Before the war we lived In a
world which had been getting into
gear for roughly, fifty years and
which was just beginning to run
smoothly in the relation of its pop
ulation to its resources. There had
been minor wars in the western
world, but no serious ones since the
British-Russian War In the 1850's,
the American Civil War In the
1860's, and -the Franco-Prussian
War in 1871. In 1914 it had taken
the world nearly fifty years to get
to somethnig like a normal routine
of a social and economic adjust
ment The greatest war of all times
threw everything out of gear, and
foolish people who had no under
standing of history thought that
everything was going to be
straightened out in ten years.
Our grandchildren will still be
suffering from the effects of the
great war. Most of us who are liv
ing today will be fortunate If we
live long enough to see the sloution
to even the major social problems
which were caused by it
OCHS
The New York Times has just
celebrated its eightieth birthday.
For nearly half of that time, more
than thirty-five years, it has been
under the control and direction of
one man, Adolph S. Ochs. He came
to New York with practically no
financial resources, but with a
thorough knowledge of the news
paper business, gained in Chattan
ooga, Tennessee, and with a reputa
tion for integrity. He took over a
bankrupt newspaper and made it
into the greatest, most influential
and most profitable journal In
America, if not In the world. He
did this by the simple means of de
termining from the beginning to
make the most complete and the
cleanest newspaper It was humanly
possible to make. That policy he
has adhered to rigidly. If I had to
put the secret of success into one
phrase I would say that It is integ
rity of purpose. Mr. Ochs is an out
standing example of success" achiev
ed by that smiple rule.
COOPERATION
There never was a better time
than now to try out cooperative en
terprises in which everyone who
contributes work or money is to
share in the ultimate profit In
Chicago a movement of this sort is
being , organized in the building in
dustry. Architects, contractors and
sub-contractors, supply houses and
workers are all to take agreed-on
percentages of their payment in
shares in the completed building.
It might work in other industries.
Even if such experiments fail to
produce expected profits, it is bet
ter for everyone to have done his
share In working on them than
merely to have done nothing while
waiting for the economic crisis to
pass.
National Corporation
Sells Western Wool
Nearly one and one-half million
pounds of western wool were sold
during the week ended Sept 19 by
the National Wool Marketing cor
poration for its western grower as
sociations, it is announced by J. B.
Wilson, secretary.
Movement of wool from huge
Boston storage warehouses of the
National continued steadily during
the week to mills In face of rather
quiet trading and a somewhat un
settled market, apparently brought
on by fluctiations of the British
pound in foreign markets.
During the period the National
spurned underbidding and announc
ed its permanent policy of orderly
marketing would continue in efforts
to stabilize wool prices.
California, Idaho, Texas, New
Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado and
other western wools were among
those sold to New England mills by

Use Tomatoes Freely
Say 0. S. C. Specialists
Use all the tomatoes you can now
and save the surplus for winter, is
the suggestion of the diet special
ists. They add interest, color and
flavor to low-cost meals.
Tomatoes green and tomatoes red
are used in 11 tested recipes assem
bled' in a mimeographed leaflet just
released at the home economics ex
tension office in Corvallis. Spicy-
smelling concoctions such as chut
ney, mock mincemeat and tomato
mangos are included and these, say
food specialists, add piquancy to a
meal. The ingredients and the
method for making green tomato
picalilli are given as follows: ,
Green Tomato Picalilli: Chop V,
bushel green tomatoes, 6 large
white onions, 6 green peppers, and
2 pounds cabbage finely. Mix them
together with 1 cup salt and let
them stand overnight Drain, add
3 pints of vinegar, and boil for 30
minutes. Drain off the vinegar.
Then mix together the following
ingredients: z pounds sugar, 1 ta
blespoon whole cloves, 1-2 cup
ground mustard, 2 quarts vinegar,
1 tablespoon whole allspice, 1 table
spoon pepper-corns and 2 cups grat
ed horseradish. Heat the mixture
to the boiling point Add the
chopped mixture and bring again
to the boiling point Seal in clean,
hot jars.

Feeding Methods Tested
On O.S.C. Pullet Flocks
One thousand white leghorn pul
lets in the laying pens at the poul
try department of Oregon State
college are serving to reveal the
compartaive value of several meth
ods of feeding from time of hatch
ing to full production. These pul
lets have already gone through the
first part of the experiment, which
was to show whether they could be
raised just as well on laying rations
as on the more complicated and
expensive chick feeds. Results of
this phase of the experiment are
now being compiled.
Now that 500 have been raised
one way and 500 the other, these
two groups have again been divided
each into four pens of 125 each.
Throughout the coming winter
these will all receive exactly the
same treatment and will be in the
same environment except that each
of the four pens in each group wil
be fed differently.
The two No. 1 pens will get hand
fed grain in the litter with hopper
fed mash. No. 2 pens will get both
hopper fed grain and hopper fed

partment "Field tests by poultry
men have also indicated that good
pullets can be raised by using regu
lar laying rations, and if this is cor
rect it will greatly reduce the labor
and feed cost
Every precaution was taken to
see that the two batches of pullets
are the same in heredity, even to
the point of dividing each batch as
it came from the Incubator.
Two other feed studies being un

the amount of alfalfa meal that
can be substituted safely for suc
