simple life. But why is 1t necessary
to GO to some other place, to some
other setting, to lead the simple
life? Why not let us vacation at
home lust as well as elsewhere? To
do this We must first simplify the
furnishings, lay away useless orna-

hanging that will keep the house
from easy care. Then let US simpli-

Why have hot roast and steaming
vegetables on q hot and steaming

etables at 10 in the morning, let the
roast lie without cutting so as to
retain its juices and at night serve

made from the vegetable cooked
sandwiches only at picnics? The
sandwich offers the easiest method
of preparing and serving meat and
bread, and all kinds of delicious fill
ings can be made and prepared in
the morning, laid in paraffine paper
to keep fresh until night. A salad
may also be a substantial dish and

FATE OF REVOLUTION SEEMS TO DEPEND UPON HIS ACTION
 IN BENTON CASE.
MUST SETTLE WITH BRITAIN
In Case of Revolutionary Success 1t Is Believed England Would Refuse to Recognize carranza and Might nfIu- ence Other Nations.

Washington, March 6.-Although the American government intends to suspend any further deyelopment of its Mexican policy until the commis- sion of Mexican constitutionalists in- yestigatng the execution of Wm. S. Benton has made report, today's cabinet meeting here developed discussion of the importance of the future attitude of General Carranza toward the United States.
 High officials of the administration believe the fortunes of the constitu- tionalist movement hangs largely in the balance and that only clear ex. planation of the Benton incident and satisfactory reparation to those re- sponsible will regain for them the prestige they had acquired as persons during the restoration of constitu- tional governement in their country. Should the Benton case remain un- settled in the event the constitutions alists cause is triumphant. strong intimaions are heard in official cir cles that Great Britain would refuse to recognize Carranza if he were elected president. Officials also take it for granted that Great Britain might in- l fluence other European nations to withhold recognition until reparation
 is made for injury done foreigners.
 Administration officials here today pointed out that on the Benton case ! seemed to be dependent the political future of General Carranza. Carran-
 zas point that he need not supply in. formation to the United States about 1 British subjects or other foreigners is not regarded seriously now, as there
 are assurances from Carranza's friends that this attitude will be modified The expected discussion in the | open senate of the Mexican situation l began today with a speech by Sena- | tor Works of California, republican, who arraigned the governments | Mexican policy. His words brought no reply from administration sena- tors.
 Monday Senator Fall of New Mexi- co republican, proposes to make pub lie a mass of information regarding the Mexican situation particularly Senaor Shiveley plans to reply, de- 1 lending the administration attitude Other senators plan to open up the floodgates if there is to be a free-for- all discussion which so many times has been threatened in the senate and as often suppressed
 It was said tonight that an effort might be made to go into executive session when the Mexican issue comes up. but a roll call may be demanded and some senators asserted that would mean an open session.
 Gen Felix Daiz who still is in Washington, has made indirect over- lures to get hearing before the senate foreign relations Committee but Senator Shively. acting chairman of the committee tonight said no meeting of the committee for that purpose had been called
