PAGE FIVE I RAILROAD LOANS HIT BYCOUZENS Securities Produced by Mis souri Pacific' for Recent Aid Inadequate, Is Claim In Speech Before Senate WASHINGTON, March 31. UP) Railroad loan y tat reconstruction finance corporation were condemned In the senate by Chairman Couzena of the interstate commerce commit tee. Pointing specifically to the recent loan of tl3.800.000 to the Missouri Paclflo railroad. Couzens aald the market value of the securities- pro duced by this railroad waa only ia. 450.000. He also called attention that the reconstruction corporation adopted a resolution approving the loan and submitting It to the Interstate com merce commission before asking the formal approval of the latter. Keluctant to Loan. The commission then approved the loan "with reluctance." "I have no knowledge," said Couz ena, "of congress having declared a policy of government ownership of the railroads, and yet the loan to the Missouri Pacific and others have been approved, and others still pending clearly Indicate to me that if loans are continued In the same manner as they have been In the past, many of these propertlea will eventually re vert to the government or the gov ernment will lost Its investment. "The government will at least find Itself in possession of the least de sirable and least profitable railroads. False Conclusions. Couzens said the Interstate com merce commission had approved many fees charged by "money merchants' for financing the railroads, on the ground that they stood back of the carriers and were of great value to them. . "This has proven a false conclusion because they are not standing back of them." Couzens said. "This Is par ticularly true of the New York Cen tral, considered one of the strongest of the roads because It has had to borrow M.399,000 In spite of the fact that Morgan and company has always profited to a large extent from II nanclng It." The Pennsylvania, Couzens said, had also asked for a loan of 55, 000,000, which he called further proof that the theory had not worked out. Many of the railroads which have applied for loans, Souzens added, have not earned as much as 30 per cent of their operating expenses during 1931. CASTEL, Oondolfo, Italy, March 81. yp) Ancient Roman statues, said to be or great value, have been unearth ed during the restoration of the gar den at the Villa Barberlnl, summer retreat of the pope, It was disclosed today.

Greatly Increased make of butter has been shown latel. . The Increase has been especially noticeable since the first of the week and accumula tions have resulted. There Is no Improvement In the egg market situation as a result of con tinued direct selling by unattached producers. Retailers are ahle to pur chase most of their needs below established values as a result which weakens the entire trade structure. Bearish operators in the live chicken trade who appear to lay awake nights to devise some new low price for supplies, are now being made to pay 1 to 2c lb. higher than the quotations they list for light hens.

More Work For Supreme Court 8ALEM. March 31 f AP) Apr" to the Oregon supreme court took an upward Jump during- March. Arthur Benson, clerk of the court, announced.

The in crease was attributed to litigation resulting from adverse busine con diuona. (By the Bureau of Home Economics U, 8. Department of Agriculture) Cheese American Cheddar cheese. Cheddar cheese, or plain American cheese, aa it la commonly known la another of the good food bargains I now on the market, according to the bureau of home economics of the U. S. department of agriculture. I The retail price has not been so low since 1904 It averages about 20 cents a pound now and cheese la one of those concentrated foods that can be used to make either a good main dish of Itself, or to add flavor and food value to any other part of the meal, whether In soup, meat, vegetables, salad, or dessert. Cheese la made of milk; of the low-cost cheeses, American Cheddar Is made of whole milk, cottage cheese of skimmed milk. Both are rich In protein, calcium and phosphorus. A pound and a quarter of Cheddar cheese contains fully aa much pro tein, calcium, and phosphorus as a gallon of whole milk, and has also fat and some of the vitamin values of whole milk. In flavor cheese ranges all the way from the mildest of the Wisconsin varieties to the sharp cheese which is more typical of New York manufacture Wisconsin producing about two thirds of all the Cheddar cheese manufactured In the United tSates. and New York much more than any of the other states. Onion soup with cheese Is a whole meal In Itself. Cheese fondue, made with a pound of cheese, a pint of milk and two cups of bread crumbs, can be served as a very cheap main dish for the family dinner. Cheese crackers made by grating cheese on crackers and toasting them under the oven flame can be used with potato or apple salad, or other vegetable or fruit salad, to make the Sunday supper. Tomato rarebit, Welsh rarebit, cheese with tomatoes and rice, cheese souffle, cheese with macaroni and tomatoes, cheese fon due, cheese scalloped with cabbage and spaghetti, cheese with potatoes, with corn, with hominy or hominy griU. cheese In rice croquettes, cheese sliced or made Into a spread for sandwiches, cheese with any thing, almost, will add both to the flavor and food value of the meal. Many people do. of course, raise a question about the digestibility of cheese. Food scientists say, how ever, that the discomfort which sometimes follow the eating of cheese la probably largely the result of the "unsuitable way In which cheese la often eaten aa at hours other than meal times, or at the end of a meal already sufficient. When eaten at a rational place In the meal and i thoroughly chewed, cheese usually Is well digested." To this the bu reau of home economics adds the KUMjrstlon that the method of cook ing the cheene has much to do with Its digestibility. Orate or flake or shave the cheese, or cut It In small pieces, and distribute these through the other Imrredlenta of the cheese dth the bread crumbs, the spa ghetti, the vegetable, as the case may be and cook at very moderate temperature. Then. ay the recipe specialist, the cheese has no chance to form the leathery mass which is so slow to digest. Cottage cheese can easily be made at home (the dpartment of agri culture has published a farmers bulletin 14M-P. making and using cottage chee In the home, which Is free for the asking). Many peo ple like cottARe cheese served by itself in the main part of the meal, seasoned with salt and Mended with a little milk f cream if possible) or with sour cream or melted butter It makes an attractive and nutri tious salad, and Is the basis for sandwich fill In as. combining nicely :with many kinds of frulta. fresh lor dried, with ereen peppers, carrot, cabbage, or other crisp vegetables ! Horseradish, onion Juice, chives, 1 parsley, caraway seed, or trround wine make a ood tnning whn citMg cheee Is served as salad J Often, too. it la served as a deasert. with milk and sugar, If cream la 'not to be had.
