Former Senator Gillett Good

Man Glass of Virginia Is
Power at Age of 75
Turnips Have Value in
Figuring Low Cost Diet
By RIRKIE SIMPSON
WASHINGTON There must be
something about the senate which
makes It the favored place lor elder
ly men of long political careers to
round out their active days. Age rare
ly withers nod does custom easily
stale a senator.
Take former Senator Gillett of
Massachusetts. He was In his eighties
when he retired voluntarily, and
seemingly hale and vigorous a man -it
his age as was to be found. Some 40
years of political life had not worn
him down physically. He was feared
at golf, drove his own car and all
that.
Trained On Battles
Or there Is Carter Glass of Virginia,
a power in the senate at 75, as force
ful In debate, as unfailing In attend
ance as when he first came up to sit
in the house 30 years ago. He has
been In the thick of legislative frays
for all but a year or two of that time
when he served as post-war treasury
secretary.
There la Senator Tom Walsh of
Montana at 74, a hero of aa grinding
a period of hard work in the oil leaae
Investigation days as any legislator
ever went through.
He Is a froll looking man, but al
ways among those present. And Walsh
runs his own car still, stepping on
the gas In youthful fashion at times.
Or again, consider the case of Sen
ator Reed Smoot of Utah. Toward the
close of his seventieth year he endur
ed the first political defeat on a 30-year-war
of his own to stay In the
senate. He was "lame ducked" out
In the democratic sweep, with hla way
ef life to reshape at that late date.
And he opened his seventy-first birth
day with a round of golf on a crisply
eold morning In preparation for the
daily battle with the dry, practical
aspects of government that always
have Interested him.
Consider Messrs. Borah, at 68, and
Hiram Johnson, at 87. Was there
ever a more fiery bit of debate than
that they staged about the war-debt
Incidents of the Hoover-Laval con
ference? Time has not tamed them
preceptibly. The senate eeems to con
serve the ginger of Its members far
beyond the normal span ox unounv
lnlshed activity among men.
presidential Toll
Bv contrast look at the age ' at
which Presidenta and former Presl'
dents have died, Including Calvin
Coolldge. A doaen of the 30 men
reached -their three score and ten or
beyond, John Adams' death at 00 be
ing an astonishing contradiction of
the general rule.
Since the war between the states
only three former presidents, Hayes.
Cleveland and Taft, have- reached
their seventies, and aH three died
virtually at that age. .

In providing a diet at low oost It
Is always a problem to find a suffl
clent variety of protective foods. In
winter the choice among cheap vege
tables other than potatoea la limited
chiefly to cabbage, .tomatoes, some
greens, and some of the succulent
roots. Of the roots, says the Bureau
ol Home Economics of the U. 8. De
partment of Agriculture, carrots anr
sweet potatoes are richest In protect
ive values. Turnips, however, have
a place because they are cheap, be
cause they are a good source of vita
min O and a fair source of vitamin
B, and because when served they are
likely to be eaten In quantities suf
ficient to make their vitamin and
mineral content an Item worth con-
slderlng In the low-cost diet. Yel
low turnips furnish also some vita
mln A.
Turnips, moreover, are two vege
tables in one. Their roots provide
winter fare, and their tops furnish
greens which are available in south
ern areas of the United States nearly
all tthe year. Turnip greens are
among the richest of all vegetable
foods In vitamins A, B and O, and In
minerals, especially. Iron. Some va
rieties of turnips are grown for their
tops alone. Others are planted pri
marily to supply root for winter but
growers often leave some of these
roots in the ground so that the green
shoots may furnish greens In spring
and summer.
Consider the turnip also, says the
bureau, because It Is one of the vege
tables that la eaten raw.
A vegetable eaten raw contributes
all of Its minerals and vitamins. Raw
turnip salad, then, or salad strips of
turnip alone, served instead ox a
stalk of celery, Is a very cheap way
to add protective food values to a
meal, through the minerals and es
pecially tAe vitamin C In raw tur
nips. When the turnips are cooked,
some of vitamin O will be lost, and
care Is needed In cooking and serv
ing to preserve other vitamin min
eral values. Vitamin A. however. Is
not readily destroyed by heat; there
fore, more of this vitamin la retained
In the cooked vegetable.
Yellow fleshed turnips, rather than
white, furnish vitamin A. And yel
low turnips are plentiful In many
parts of this country. Some kinds
are called Just "yellow turnips,' oth
ers are yellow rutabagas, or "swedes,"
so called from their Scandinavian
origin.
Turnips are close relatives of the
cabbages belong Indeed, to the same
genus, Brasslca. They are close to
the radishes, also, their many varie
ties shading almost Into the same
radish varieties. There are turnips
of many colors, among them black,
green, purple, and even red, as well
as white and yellow. Common varie
ties, however, are the glubutar white,
the purple-top white, the yellow, and
the rutabagas yellow and white.
Many varieties of turnips are na
tive to the Old World, and have been
cultivated since very ancient days. In
the time of King Henry VIII of Eng-
' land, history records "turnips were
used baked or roasted In ashes, and!
the young shoots were used as a sal- i
ad and as a spinach." Turnip kraut
la an Old World dish that Is familiar
to many people In this country to
day, and turnips are one of the mak
ings of a New England boiled din
ner, a stew, or a vegetable soup, any
of which may be a balanced meal in
Itself, partly by reason of the min
eral and vitamin values of the tur
nips. The art In cooking turnips (and
the science, too) is to use a little
water aa possible, cook no longer
than la necessary to mako the tur
nips tender, and use an uncovered
cooking vessel. The cooking time
can be shortened If toe turnips are
diced, or otherwise cut up. Follow
these directions to retain maximum
food value, and avoid a "strong" flavor.

Remove the pork and some of the

COLOONE. (AP) With the ad
vent of winter and no letup In un
employment, smuggling Is growing on
a iou-miie section or the German
frontier touching Belgium and Hol
land. Tobacco, coffee, sugar and bread
stuffs are cheaper across the border.
Contraband traffic in them centers
at the point where the three coun
tries converge, Just west of Aachen.
An army of 1100 customs officers,
equipped with fast cars, m tor
cycles and fierce mastiffs, patrols
roads and bypaths. But professional
smugglers know every Inch of the
land and often use armored lorries
to crash the line, defying bullets.
In six months 35.000 persons have
been arrested for smuggling In this
section. Goods confiscated Included
8.800.000 cigarettes? 60 tons of to
bacco, 88 tons of coffee, 103 tons of
sugar, 251 tons of breadstuff. 208
automobiles, 02 motorcycles and 2,

BETTER CONTROL OF COLDS
Headaches, loss of appetite and
energy, sallow complexions, and
sleeplessness are often warning
signs of common constipation.
Unless checked, constipation may
Impair health.
Today, you can get rid of com-
mon constipation by simply eating
a delicious cereal. Laboratory tests
show that Kellogg's Aia-Bran pro
vides "bulk" to exercise the intes
tines, and vitamin B to further aid
regularity. All-Bran is also a
good source of blood-building iron.
The "hulk" In All-Bran Is much
like that in leafy vegetables. Inside
the hodv. it forms a soft mass.
Gently, it clears the Intestines of
wastes. How much better than tak
ing patent medicines.
Two tablespoonfuls daily will
overcome most types of constipa
tion. Serious cases, with every
meal. If not relieved this way, see
your doctor.
