Washington, D. C., June lS.-A few simple precautions will aid the house wife in keeping meat untainted in hot weather 1t Is, of course, common knowledge that the higher the tenn perature, the quicker meat will spoil, but the family's supplies are not ab- solutely at the mercy of the thermon1- eter Ice and cleanliness are two great wea pons of defense.
 For many families refrigerator is obviously out of the question, but it is perhaps better to have no refriy- orator at all than a neglected one. Merely to wash it out occasionally does little good; it should be thor oughly scalded at frequent intervals. in particular the drain. This if over looked, is apt to harbor fungous growths, which may spread to the food. On one occasion a man ap- piled to the department of agriculture because he had found that a joint of beef placed in his. refrigerator had turned peculiar bright red. Upon examination it was ascertained that the meat was covered with peculiar fungous growth due entirely to the condition of the refrigerator Growtns of this kind do not always advertise themselves so prominently and there may be much evil in an ice box that the eye cannot detect.
 Clean Refrigeratcr Drain.
 If the refrigerator drain is not thor oughly cleaned, moreover, it is likely to become choked, the water is not carried off quickly enough and little pools are left standing in the inter- irr T T)a m nm C nf ditions most favorable to bacterial growth. An ice box in this state will not protect food long. It is, in fact a wise precaution to wipe the inter- for of a refrigerator every day with 8 dry cloth.
 The temperature of the average re- suppose and in those households where regular supply of ice is not obtainable, cool cellar, spring house or the depths of we'll may serve somewhat the same purpose. On farms where there is an ice house, the meat may be placed in some form of closed retainer and buried in the ice. In any event, the meat must be care fully screened from flies. The dan- ger from infection from these pests las been pointed out many times, but familiarity breeds contempt and they still persist. The fly not only does the meat itself no good but it may readily deposit upon it some infection, which is carried in turn by the meat into the human system. Some flies will deposit their eggs on the meat and these in a short time will become 6 masEots and the meat is "fy-biown."

NOT RESPONSIBLE
SAYS CHURCHILL
Former First Lord of Admiralty
in House of Commons
Answers Critics.

LONDON. Nov. 15.-Winston Spen-
Ger Churchill, former first lord OF the
British admiralty. against whom more
bitter criticism has been launched
than any other man in the English
government since the war began, made
his speech Of defense in the house Of
commons this afternoon.
Mr.. Churchill put full responsibility
for the disastrous Antwerp expedition
upon Lord Kitchener. the secretary of
state for war and the French gov
eminent.
The former first lord of the admir-
atty also denied personal responsible
ity for the Dardanelles enterprise.
''The proposition TO send an expedi-
ton to the Dardanelles to open up the
way to CoDstantinople was profound
", maturely and deliberately consider
ed" declared Churchill.
1t had been charged that Mr.
Churchill acted too quickly and too
much upon his own initiative in send
ing the expedition to Antwerp and to
the Dardanelles
As to the Antwerp enterprise Mr.
Churchill said:
THE idea Of sending a relieving
army TO save Antwerp from capture
by the Germans originated with Lord
Kitchener and the Ere lch govern
ment. That the expedition arrived too
late TO save the Belgian city was not
my fault"
Mr.. Churchill declared that he al
ways consulted the first sea lord of
the admiralty before making any Off
cial move.
Baron Fisher Of KilverstOne, known
as the father Of the modern English
navy" was first sea lord of the admir-
atty for some time during Mr.. Church
ills tenure as first lord OF the admir-
atty and the differences which led the
Baron to retire have never been ex-
planned.
mo act, no policy nor any scheme
Of distribution was put into effect dur
ing my administration which did not
have the concurrence of the first sea
lord in writing" said Mr.. Churchill.
