NoN-CONSERvlSTS OF
FOOD IN TAMPA DEALTH WITH
BY ADMINISTRATOR BEACHAM

Rather surprisingly but not without
warning, Federal Food Administra
traitor Braxton Beacham appeared in
the city of Tampa last week for the
purpose of conducting hearings
against certain ones who had been
charged with violating the Food Ad.
ministration rulings, and at the close
of the days work, five concerns were
given the punishment determined by
Administrator Beacham as suiting
their respective cases.
The White House Cafe, restau.
rant which had been serving lunches
to those who sometimes provided
themselves with liquid refreshments,
was found guilty of disobeying the
restrictions as to serving beef, and
also wheat products. This concern
was given the alternative of paying
$500 to the Red Cross or suspending
business. They suspended. A baker
named Edwards who had been neg.
lecting to put the proper substitutes in
his bread and also reported having
sold his substitutes, was allowed to
close his place of business for the
duration OF the war and thus avoid
further prosecution. Another baker
named Granja, found guilty of max.
ing erroneous reports and not making
his bread to conform with regulations
was given the option of paying 5000
TO the Red Cross or closing. He
promptly made the donation. A gro.
Ger named Richards, also failed 10
pay 500 to Red Cross, choosing to
shut up shop. r. ". Mohr, another
baker who had made incorrect re.
ports and to all appearances which
he was able to disprove, used only a
fraction of substitutes in his bread
consented to enrich the Red Cross
5000 rather than close.
To date Mr., Beacham has imposed
penalties on ten licenses in this
state. though other penalties have
been given those not operating under
a license. Warning has been repeat

must obey the laws, and Mr. Beach.

RIDING ON VELVET
IN POLK COUNTY

A. a would seem from present con-

can scarcely be more convenient OF
economical than at present it is GER
tain that a great many of the people
who annually visit Florida in winter

likely that the start will be made ear
linr than usual and possibly the stay
longer For some years past a great

Florida in their own cars, ana the slV'
nation at present is such as to en-
courage a very much larger NUMBER
to use this means of making the trip
the coming winter. Certainly not
all of the winter visitors will wish
to make the journey by the righ roau
for travelling ION velvet in the lux
urious tourist specials of past winters
has made Florida very near and mos
convenient to the great centers OF
population, and there is given some
assurance that special, fine trains ana
excellent, shortened schedules may
be expected this coming winter
There are a good many people VINO
will find it to their taste and maybe
necessity to travel by rail and TIE
"velvet" will be appreciated by them
even at higher cost and possibly
less convenient schedule.
But some of the travellers who get
to Florida in their own cars will
"ride on velvet" after reaching this
state, and those who have tried to
travel about in automobile only a few
years ago and found it rough work
will be surprised and delighted at
the changes and improvements that
will be discovered In Polk county,
for instance, they are talking quite
a bit about their velvet roads" and
the Lakeland Telegram offers an ar
gument that is attractive. The Tele.
gram says:
Next winter will see more tourists
coming to Florida in automobiles than
ever before. This will be due to the
heavy increased price of travel, and
also to the threatened curtailment of

WAYSIDE MUSINGS

cincinnati mas c0dHgeu llltle III lHe
three decades that have elapsed since
the greenest youth that ever faced the
bright lights first descended upon it
from the Kentucky wilds. A friend
met us at the train, otherwise we
know we'd have come to an untimely
end-under the wheels of a brewery
wagon, perhaps, or some other plebian
vehicle-and we would not now be
favoring you with these interesting
memoirs, nor still be lodging traffic,
with determination to be run down
by nothing less aristocratic than a
packard or a Cadillac AS it was, we
had two or three pitched battles with
the gentry who insisted on carrying
our valise-they had valises in those
days, and ours was of the telescope"
variety; and we were prepared to de-
fend it with our life, for had we not
heard of the wickedness of great
city, and did not this precious valise
contain our Other shirt and our
college diploma, and the remainder OF
the peanuts and popcorn we had
recklessly purchased on the train?
But finally our friend persuaded us
away from the depot environs, though
not until we had an earnest argument
with the kind gentlemen who Incl w
along the curb, and whose courteous
rroffers Of Cab, sir?" we felt we
could not decline without giving them
some reasonable explanation. And
thus, some thirty years ago. we made
our triumphal entry into the Queen
City, and the Queen City has changed
very little since-would, alas, that we
had changed as little as it has!
Not but that the city has grown;
but its growth has been mostly snbur-
ban. For miles back, in nearly every
direction, where once were wooded
hills, homes cluster thickly, and street
cars ply their way, and the real es-
tate agent has his lair. Down town
things look much the same as Of oil l.
except that Third street, where cnce
the financial district was located. has
been abandoned by bankers and brok-
ers, and is now dingy thoroughfare,
given over to wholesalers. The Ohio,
IN its frequent rampages, was wont to
invade the street and water the stock.
hence the brokers and other finan-
ciers, who prefer to water their own
stock, moved up to higher, dryer
ground. The city has one big new
building-the Union Central, built
some ten years ago; and whenever
you see a Cincinnatian he tells you
about 1t, first off. It is modelled after
New York's Woolworth building, and
the proud residents claim that it is
the highest building in the countrv
outside Of New York.
49,
Cincinnati we have ever found
good place in which to get something
to eat; and we have heard 1t intimat-
ed that one can get something to
drink there, too. Indeed, there is no
well authenticated case on record
where Cincinnatian died of thirst.
And the cost of living Is reasonable,
too. We visited the markets, because
we like to look at something to eat,
even If we can't have It; and we have
been seriously considering the project
Of buying Florida fruits and veget-
ables here and shipping them back
home for sale to our own folks. We
believe 1t could be made to pay. And
there are other commodities which
cost surprisingly less here than at
home. l don't know why this condi-

.EBEN APPLETON !.
DIES IN FRIENDS AUTO
Veteran Capitol Employe Was on
Way With Maj. Robbins to LAT:
ter's Home for Dinner.

Eben Dodge Appleton, seventy five
years old, and indexer of the Congress
sional Record for the past forty-four
years, died in an automobile while on
his way to the home of Maj. Alfred P.
Robbins, 3428 Ashley place, to keep
dinner engagement, shortly before
o'clock last night.
Maj. Robbins, who was with Mr..
Appleton in the car, turned toward.
him to ask him a question as they
reached the north end of the Connec-
ticut Avenue bridge. Receiving no
answer. the Army officer stopped the
car and proceeded to make an exami-
nation. He found that the aged man
had died, apparently without suffer-
ing the slightest pain: A few mo.
ments before the two friends had
been engaged in animated converse

II helped him on with his coat at
o'clock and warned him that he

said that he felt fine said r. Parke
Torbett, who. has been associated with
Mr.. Appleton in his Office for the past
nineteen years.
When Mr.. Appleton entered the
service of the government the Con-
gressional Record was without an in
dex. This. under the supervision Of
the late Gen. Ordway. he established.
He perfected the plan more than forty
years ago.
Mr.. Appleton, who was a bachelor,
was born in Bangor, Me. His father
was appointed minister to Russia by
President Buchanan. He was a ia
miliar figure at the Ebbitt House. It
is said that he had slept in the same.
room at the same hosiery every night
for more than thirty years, except
for brief periods when he would go
to his native town.
HE was one Of the most popular
men ON the HILL" said Mr.. Torbett. 4
land also one Of the best informed.
If new senator wanted to know the
customs prevailing in Congress he
was usually referred to Mr.. Apple
ton"
1t was said that Mr.. Appleton had
some personal acquaintance with ev-
cry occupant of the White House from
Buchanan to Wilson. Funeral ar
rangements will later be made. A
cousin from Maine is expected to look
after the details.

Senator Kenyon Of Iowa suggested
it would be wise for the appropria-

Martin said he had talked this over
with Chairman Sherley of the House

Mr.. Sherley was engaged at present
