FAHTISAN DEMOCRATIC RAPTURES (Congressional Record) I believe that the real, regular Democrats are entitled to all the Jobs In the Government. I believe there are enough competent, honest, coursgeous, regular Dem ocrats to fill creditably every of fice In this land. I respect the views of Andrew Jackson, who, when his "kitchen cabinet" was in session at the White House one night considering Federal appointments, heard one of his advisers say, "General, I do not believe we can find a Democrat capablo or filling that office," and "Old Hickory," pounding the table with his clenched, bony fist, exclaimed: "Then, by the eternsl, we will abolish that office." The Mae West story Is all the vogue among the bon vlvanss, and many report they aro aa tired of hearing them, as they wore Scotch stories. In the summer of 1020. . Science his been able to magnify the human voice 13,000 times, but a greater feat would be to reduce aome human voices 13,000 times. (Yakima, Wash., Herald). A very good idea with a political campaign on the horlron.

He Just remained long enough to be polite. A number of gents, aspiring to high office and the pecuniary re muneration attached thereto, are of fering as vote-bait vague promises or "contentment and happiness." Both have long been regarded aa a state of mind In the Individual, and beyond a bill concocted by a member of the legislature from Multnomah county. It Is doubtful If any legisla tion will enable his constituents to Ret their happiness like they do their beans. As for contentment, there Is plenty of evidence It Is about 95 per cent laelness, and most anybody can be that way.

Yes, what a wonderful thing the radio is! Motoring as wo arc, via one night stands through the east, we, along with thousands of other tourists, listened to President Roosevelt's speech last night everything was as clear and distinct as jf the president were in the room with us, although we happened to be dining with friends in this attrac tive city. Had wo stayed in our hotel rooms we could have listened to tho speech just as well. For practically all the large hotels in the cast have radios "at no extra cost to the tax payers." These radios have a short range but they get all the national hook-ups. No nickel in the slot. All one has to do is turn them on. To us the president's speech was unusually interesting. In the first place we had just visited the White House and walked along that portion which has been closed for cleaning up and repairs. So the president's remarkable illustration of his plan of national political reform and social rehabilitation, was peculi arly effective. The other interesting angle was provided by the fact we wero meeting old friends, we hadn't seen for 15 or 20 years, and they wero all or had been, staunch Republicans. There was a doctor, an executive in the Niagara Falls electrical com pany, the vice-president of a biscuit factory, and a man in the wholesale lumber business. Only the dootor was a Roosevelt supporter, the others wero stronger than horse radish in their opposition to the New Deal. Yet all of them admitted one of them rather reluctantly that the president's speech was a good one a masterpiece of clarity and popular appeal. It was so simple, so easy to under stand, so cleverly and effectively spiked the guns of his oppo sition. , President Roosevelt defended his policies without relinquish ing his offensive. He made his essential purposes clear, without for a moment being placed in the position of a SPECIAL pleader. He was sure of himself, without for a moment being bumptious. His words rang with sincerity and yet he was never unctious. As one of the die-hard Republicans explained it: "I don't like the man, don't like his policies, his political theories I regard as fantastic and fundamentally unsound. Yet I admit, that as the set-up now stands, no one can beat hiin, no one can even effectively opposo him. I can pick his New Deal to pieces in a thousand ways. And yet how can you answer that simple little White House analogy of his. Everyone knows the White House is being repainted and repaired. Everyone knows that to do this is a good thing, plumbing should bo modern and hygenic, offices should be rearranged and brought up to date, the essential simplicity and architectural beauty of the White House isn't changed more effective and efficient machinery is installed, that's all. Evory man and woman in the country will understand that, and approve. I even find myself saying "well that's OK I guess." "Yet I am certain it is dangerous business and all wrong. Roosevelt is like a sprinter who has jumped the gun and gotten a ten yard start.' No one can catch him. He's just about six jumps ahead all the time." Mrs. Die-Hard Republican expressed it another way: "Why shouldn't the country have a houso cleaning once in 50 years. Jack would divorce me tomorrow if I didn't clean house every spring. Besides, isn't the president's voice wonderful, and how nicely he picks his words 1" Certainly in that little group President Roosevelt didn't loso any votes, and we will wager this without qualification, every woman in that room expects to vote for Franklin D. next time although perhaps few of them .would admit it to master ful hubby at the present time. ; , Motoring here from Loch Haven, we passed through a little stretch of the Pennsylvania oil country, via Bradford. Scattered throughout the countryside were tiny oil wells, some pumps were chugging, in more or less residential front yards. At luncheon, next to us, was a table accommodating four oil men. They wero much disturbed by the fact that tho pcoplo 0f this country aro using too much light oil and not enough heavy, too mucn western on and not enough eastern, Although among the Buffalo business we havo seen, there are few Roosevelt men, ovoryone in general are vastly improved. We gather Buffalo wasn't as liaru hit by the depression as most of tho largo eastern cities. It is rather a conservative community, and didn't boom forward during the Coolidge ad ministration, like Clovcland and Detroit. No banks here failed. Chatted with tho president of a I1 or tho past six months ' said he. "we have been in the black, whereas for three yoars we wero in the red. My business is regarded in Wall Stroot as one of tho best industrial barom eters. I send my reports evcrv month to certain Nnw YnrU brokers. If things keep on this way, we won't complain. But I don't credit Roosevelt with any part in it. The improvement has been in spite, not because of the New Deal. Look at England and Canada, without any of these new fangled notions, they have gone ahead faster than this country, in the same length of time. Buffalo confirms our Now York impression. Amnno tin. m. called Big Business men, Roosevelt supporters are as rare as cheer leaders at a ohess tournament. R. W. It. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY BY O.O.McIntyre NEW YORK, July . Edwin C.

SOFTENING FOOD WITH SODA A mother asks whether It is harm ful to uh i am all quantltyt of sal erstus (baking soda) in cooking green vegetable for frTm,r.r. iXM&rm children or ad una. Chemically baking aoda or sal era t us la called sodium bicarbon ate. Many coo lea use a little of this alkali when cooking vege table in order to make the veg etablea seem more tender. The objection to this practice is that If the vege table 'Is fresh and contains vitamin O, the addition of the alkali destroys the vitamin. On the other hand, prolonged cook ing destroys vitamin O too. - Par boiling such as pasteurizing Is more destructive to this vltman than short steaming, cooking or steriliza tion. Thus in selecting wllk for feed ing of an Infant It la better to take raw milk and sterilize It yourself by simply bringing it to a boll for a minute and then cooling again im mediately. This Is certain to dispose of any disease germs there may be in the milk, and yet It does not en tirely destroy the valuable vitamin O. If you select ordinary milk that comes pasteurized you must rely on the human factor, which sometimes falls, and the parboiling to whloh such milk has been subjected, if the pasteurizing process has not been skimped, destroys most of the vita min C. Vitamin O prevents scurvy. That's why physicians commonly advise giv ing the young bottle-fed baby a daily ration of orange Juice or tomato juice or any fresh fruit or fresh vegetable Juice. Itl s particularly necessary If the baby Is fed with pasteurized milk. In his book on vitamins, Barnett Sure says that biological tests (feed ing animals) indicate that spinach and peppers are the most potent antiscorbutic (prevent scurvy); then come raw cabbage, tomatoes raw and factory canned, and the citrus fruits. Parsley and raw peas are rich in vitamin C. Strawberries, canned peas and canned spinach are good sources. Bananas, pineapple, carrots, sauer kraut, fresh corn, string beans are fair success of this antiscorbutic vitamin. Dried beans, peas and lentils, and other seeds, which contain no vita min 0, may be germinated and then become practically as good as, fresh vegetables as sources of vitamin O. The seeds are soaked in water for 24 hours and then kept moist and ex posed to the air at room tempera avenue's Gold Coast.

When germinated these seeds are more tender and do not require such prolonged cooking. ' Potato Is a fair source of vitamin C. In the winter when other fresh vegetables and fruits may be unavail able potato serves as a good antl scorbutic. Most dried fruits or vegetables lose all this vitamin O or power to prevent scurvy, but cabbage and to matoes hold some of It when dried and stored, and even fresh raw milk that has this vitamin In It (It con tains vitamin C If the cows have fresh green pasturage) may be dried to powder and still retain a fair part of its vitamin C content. Acid foods contain their vitamin C in spite of cooking. But the addition of saleratus or other alkali quickly destroys the antiscorbutic vitamin In cooking. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Trick Vitamins.

MR. Pllene, In 'p'resentlng the re port, says: "In the past 13 months we have developed In NRA beginnings of a new order of business.
