interview published in the "Morgen

much is said about it. 1t is true that
the last operations have not been at
tended with the success for which we
had hoped. We have experienced
some yetbacks, and. let us confess it,
suffered II defeat. At the front, ever
since the beginning, the possibilities
Of check have been admitted, but in
the rear ouch reverse constitutes a
warning, for It shows us the war is
not yet finished. What has TO be
done now is TO drive back the enemy

Troco is not merely a butter
substitute; it is the successor to
butter. 1t tastes exactly like the
finest creamery butter and is as
digestible as butter, with the
same high nutritive value.
Troco solves the butter prob
lem for those who hitherto have
used nothing but the best cream
cry butter. These critical users
say that rarely is butter so
sweet and delicate in favor.
But don't just ask for nut

at length the decision of the District
Court of Appeals in the HOrning case.
handed down Monday.
Pawn shops Needed.
The Citizens Committee under
stands that Congress is busy with
many important subjects" said Mr..
Baldwin. "But It does hope that since
this matter is so we'll understood II
can find time to pass Senate Bill POPS,
which provides that per cent a
month rate be charged on small loans
made by pawnJrokers and other
licensed lenders to residents OF the
District"
The need OF such a law at this
time is paramount. The District can
have no pawn shops or small loan
offices unless the existing law, which
allows a Charg" OF ! per cent a
month Is amended. to allow greater
revenues to conscientious and honest
brokers'"
Mr.. Baldwin pointed out that the
bill now before Congress which would
amend the present law oy allowing
greater rate OF interest to be
charged. has the Endorsement Of the
Board OF Trade. the Chamber Of Com
merce. the Federation OF Citizens As
sociAtions, the Monday Evening Club.

woman's welfare branch National
Civic Federation.
The decision Of the Court OF Ap-
peals further UNFOLDING the loan
shark law is very gratifying TO the
citizens committee" continued Mr..
Baldwin. 1T puts an end to the pre-
tense OF having a ! per cent rate in
the District. while the business was
actually being done at 3 per cent
rate. and leaves the way clear for the
enactment Of an amendment FOR q .

Our Exclusive Process Gives
TrOCO It's Real Butter Flavor
Compare TrOcO zUfth the
Best Creamery Butter

The test of Troco is on the
table, in comparison with the
best creamery butter. This is
where it wins butter lovers.
For cooking it has no equal,
either in results or from the
standpoint of economy. Troco
goes farther than butter.
Old laws, made before Troco
was invented, compel us to label
it as an oleomargarine. This Is
extremely misleading.
Troco is a quality product
used in homes where only the
best is tolerated. Here favor,
quality and the assurance of fas-
tidious manufacturing methods
insure the popularity of Troco.
