mediums for deep fryirrg, sauteing and shortening.
And more economical
Mazola does not transmit taste or odor from one
food to another can be used over and over again,
A recent demonstration showed that the same tinful of
Mazola could be used eighteen different timet tor deep frying.
Since it is a vegetable oil, it enables you to save butter,
lard and suet, as requested by the Food Administrator.
And next time you want an especially delicious salad
dressing, try Mazola.
Mazola comes in pint, quart, half-gallon and gallon tins

ing gun was officially adopted in June
as the best type of machine gun, the
weapon is not yet being manufactured
at all.
He disclosed thnt although the Euro
pean war showed the value of the ma
chine gun, the government had to buy
350 Lewis guns from Great Britain
with British ammunition for use in the
field test under actual war conditions,
Qrozier admitted.
We declared war in April: -when
ilid you actually begin equipping the
army for war " asked Hitchcock.
(Jrozier replied: "Before the war, in
that we were then getting the equip
ment for the first increment for the
army authorized by the act of Jun?
1910"
Chamberlain demanded why it took
Crozier so long after war was declar
ed to submit estimates of needed funds
to congress, if he had started work on
the first increment of the army author
ized in 1916.
Crczier said the many, checking up
operations required by law caused the
delay.
Delayed Asking runds
We appropriated $100,000,000 as
an emergency fund, before the war was
aeelared,". said- liitclicoek. -vvny
wasn't it used!"
Chamberlain prevented an answer bv
asking "When did you first ask for
share of this sum,"
"The first formal request was made
n August," said Crozier. 1 ;
"I remember speaking about it once
or twice before that time."
"Yiu got it as soon as you asked
for it, didn't you?" asked Chamber
lain. "Yes, we -got $35,000,000," replied
Crozier.
Senator Weeks returned to the sub
ject of pre-war preparations for con
gress. " Every juan iu the country antici
pated war long before it came, " said
Weeks. "What preparations did you
mako before the war declaration J"
"We listed people we could get to
work for us and made estimates of
needed material," replied Crozier.
Troops Abroad Well Armed
Crozier declared every American sol
dier abroad has a modem American
rifle. He angrily declared a statement
by Senator Hitchcock that hundreds
of thousands of men iu cantonments
are without rifles and therefore are
unable to complete their training, un;
true.
"Thousands of men are without
rifles," admitted Crozier, "but not
hundreds of thousands. Rifles are now
on the way to tho cantonments which,
need them most." j .
Crozier said rifles were sent to can
tonments in the ratio of one Tifle to
overy three men, early in September.
"Considerably more than one man
can use one rifle," said Crozier.
Eifles for Camps
Crozier admitted that some canton
ments didn't get any rifles until Octo
ber. The first rifles sent to canton
ments were not the modern type the
army will use in France, but an obso
lete type for which there was no am
munition. This, he said, made neces
sary postponement of target practice
until modern rifles could be obtained.
"Isn't the real reason for the delay
to be found iu the quarreliug of the
war department over the Lewis gun?"
demanded Chamberlain.
Chamberlain Wants to Know
"That caused some delay," admit
ted Crozier,
"At tho outbreak of the war we had
verv few machine guns in hand. No
body ever thought they would play
such au important part in the war. Ct.r
actual output of machine guns when
we declared war on uennanv was notn-

Was Needless Delay
Senator Hitchcock, Nebraska, told
Crozier that many high army officers
have told senators there has been need
less delav in providing rifles and ar
tillery for the army.
"We want something specific," said
Hitchcock when Crozier resumed his
statement at the opening of today's
session of the war probe.
"We want to know exactly what
you have done toward gettiug ready
for war. We don't want generalities.

to change them to make our ammuni
tion available."
Senator McKellar asked why no part
of an appropriation made for machine
guns in lttlrj had been used in proviov
ing them.
"Part of it was allotted in contracts
for Vickar guns, such as we use in
our aviation service, " said Crozier.
"But no guns have been ordered?"
asked MeKellar. ,
"Xcne, " replied Crozier.
' ' Well, what has the war depart
ment done to get machine guns be
tween tho making of that very consid
erable appropriation in 191 d and our
entrance into the war!"
Waiting for Test
"The chief step," answered Crozier,
to the enemv.
Hitchcock. Weeks and Chamberlain
bombarded Crozier with blunt demand
why he waited frim April, 1917, until
August before asking for an allotment
from the president's $100,000,000 emer
gency fund.
This was because Crozier yesterdiy
blamed congress delay in appropriat
ing money for the delay in obtaining
ordnance.
Congress Not to Blame
You put responsibility for delay
ime was set for May, 1917, and
tho test was held then."
"So that it wasn't until after we
had been in the war a month that we
decided which machine gun we wre
going to use?"
"The decision was made this June,"
replied Crozier.
Factories to Blame

lared. had vouf"
"Some ef it was unspent, but most
of it was needed to cover contracts
that had been made," replied Crozier-
"I didn't intend to criticise congress
The favt is that no appropriation that
congress could have made when war
was declared would have made possi
ble the provision of artillery now for
our tones. Congress should have ap
propriated the aioney three years ago
to get us ready."
Secretary of War Paker was fl.itly
charged by Vroiier with responsibility
for delay in providing machine guns
for the American army.
Tho war department did not official
ly adopt a liis. hine gun until Juu
1317. when the Browning gun was
adopted. It ha never been given a

of a vital weapon.
"Its principally due to the disinte
gration of the organizations in the f ac
tpvies," said Crozier.
Interest of Economy.
"Keeping them intact would have
meant keeping thousands of men on
the payroll for some of them that wo
had no work for," said Crozie-.
"We did keep many after manufac
ture of allied rifles had practically
ceased and before making of our rifles'
was goiliir full swingr" ; - - ,(
Crozier explained that much of the
delay in getting rifles was due to al
teration of the British Lee-Enfield mod
els so thej- would fire American ammu
nition. It was either change the En
fields or throw away 500,000 Spring
field rifles and a great deal of am
munition, Crozier said.
On the Firing Line
The questioning switched to .franco.
Crozier said the location of American
troops oh the firing line was decided
by the president in conjunction with
the British and French missions and
not by the war department.
."Our knowledge that our troops
would be on the French front was part
of the data on which we based our
rifle making calculations," he said.
"We could not make our ammunition
interchangeable with the British be
cause we knew we would be far remov
ed from tho British front. So wo did
the best thing in the situation; we
made two types of rifles to take tho
same ammunition.
French Machine Guns
Pershing's forces have been supplied
with machine guns and ammunition by
the French government, Crozier said.
The French are continuing making
machine guns for the United States.
Some French machine guns are now
being used in training camps jiis
country.
A large number of factories are
"preparing" to manufacture Brown
ing guns, Crozier stated. But until they
actually begin deliveries, the American
armies will have to depend on Franco
for most of its machine guns.
Senator Wadsworth inquired whether
"we are not taking a chance by plant
ning to equip our army with guns nev
er tested in the field f"
Crozier didn't see any danger.
Wadsworth brought out the fact that
more than 30,000 liuht machine guns
will be needed to equip the forty five
divisions cf the army.
And none of these has yet been de
livered f" asked Wadsworth.
"Xone." replied Crozier.
"When will thev besin to be?
"Xext April." "
"Whvdon't we use the Lewis as
the English do?" insisted Wa4sworth.
Lewis Chin Now Used
"We are getting enotith guns from
the French," answered Crozier. "We'll
use Lewis guns if we can't get any oth
er. But we. are certain that ali our
troops that get into the theater of war
before next. April v. ill, be equipped
with these light French machine guns.'
"These guns shoot French ainniuui
tioij," Crozier said, "but arc later to
be made in this country so they will
shoot American ammunition."
"Throughout this summer tho Am
oriftan. output of mnchine puns for our
forces was practically nothing," Cro
zier said. ''The delay wasn't due to
lack of money, nor to labor conditions,
and I have never been entirely iV-S'
fied what it was duo to."- .,. ,
