as a result of this awakening wise
housewives have set a higher stand
ard of purity than the Food Laws
demand. The federal and state au-
thorities have cut on to a great ex-
tent the manufacture of products Of
an injurious nature. The great ma
jority of housewives have gone even
farther and insist on absolute purity.
This is evidenced in the tremend-
Gus and ever increasing demand for

The following recipes have been
handed to US with the request tina,
we give them space in our paper and
assist those suffering from pneumon-
la to combat the disease:
Here's How to Cure Yourself
AS soon - the patient develops
pneumonia place a hot water bottle
as hot as the patient can stand on
the back just below the shoulders:
make two sacks out OF thin white
cloth large enough to cover the
lungs; fry skillet OF onions in plen-
~ OF grease and place over lungs
as hot as patient can stand AS soon
as 1t cools have the second one hot
and place 1t the same as first. Keep
1t up until patient is cured.
This was used on boy the doctor
had given up and said he could not
live but few hours. In twenty-four
hours he was out OF danger and is
now quite well.
Another Method
Take six or ten onions, according
to size; chop fine or run through a
meat chopper; put into a skillet over
hot fire and add about the same
quantity OF rye meal or graham or
bran, and sharp vinegar enough to
make thick paste, stirring con-
stantly as these ingredients are add
ed and letting it simmer gently for
or 10 minutes. Put this into

cover the lungs and apply to the
chest as hot as can be borne. Make
a second similar poultice and when
the first one gets cold take 1t OF
and apply the second one Immediate
ly. Put the first one into a steam
er with cover which fits on a ket-
tie of boiling water, the steam of |
which will reheat it without drying |
1t out, In time to replace the second
poultice. Continue this process
faithfully for a few hours until
breathing becomes easy and the pa
ttent will be out of danger II kept
from taking fresh cold II there is
also pain In the back between the
shoulders apply the same sort of
poultice at the same time Those
who have used this simple remedy In
this so often fatal disease have never
known 1t to fail, although the patti
ent is pronounced helpless Three

The latter line of reform includes

MARKET LETTER
Portland Union Stockyards.


January IT, 1919.
168 carloads OF livestock were re-
ceived at the Portland Union Stock
Yards during the first five days of
the present week, bringing 2O70
head of cattle, 92 calves, 1924 hogs
and 4s47 sheep.
The early part of the week found
the cattle market very brisk with
prices steady. By Wednesday the
buyers were not as active but prac-
tically all of the stuff In the yards
we're sold at fairly constant prices
without sacrifice. Best steers sold
from $500 to $1400 with fair
demand; calves $500 to $3.50:
Friday found the butchers well sup
piled and medium stuff sold at slight
ly lower quotations and the market
was considerably weakened due TO
the heavy run of cattle received ear
lier in the week
More than an adequate supply of
hogs were received at the yards on
Monday with only a fair demand. A

The Traffic Report.

Washington is in a position where
it may take its metaphorical left
hand in its right and give it hearty
congratulatory shake. This on ac-
count of its traffic record during the
twelve months just ended, as made
public by the superintendent of po-
lice in his annual report to the Com
Tissioners. The report shows that
with a gain of AZ per cent over the
preceding year in the number of
motor vehicles licensed in the Dis
trict. a decrease OF 10 per cent in total
traffic accidents and of II per cent in
deaths attributed to such mishaps has
occurred.
This is a highly satisfactory record,
and none will seek to detract from
the credit accruing to the metropoli-
tan police as result of the published
statistics. But Washington, after in
dulging in the above indicated self
congratulatory ritual, should bear the
following facts in mind. The record
shows rs deaths during the period in
Dictated and 1916 accidents of all
kinds. This, when all is said and
done, is a fairly high price to be
charged against motoring in the Ma
tional Capital. A very small percent
age of the accidents recorded may be
properly classed as unavoidable Due
in about equal proportion to careless
ness on the part of pedestrians and
motorists, the record stands as a stern
warning for both in the year ahead.
1t cannot be questioned that if
all concerned would obey the rules
the toll of life, limb and property
would show the introduction of two
decimal points in the current figures.
Nor would opportunity for further
progress then be lacking.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1919-10-21

have shown for months past. Both
have been stumping against the peace
treaty, and thus spending time in
travel. Saturday night last both were
billed for speeches at an anti league
meeting held in New York. Senator
Johnson cancelled his appointment un-
der the advice Of his physician. Sena-
tor Reed kept his, but declared that
he ought to be in bed.
The world has been under high
pressure for long spell. Civilians as
well as soldiers and sailors have been
tested physically and mentally as
never before. Every body in respon-
sible place has been driven to the ut
most. In executive offices, in legis-
lative chambers, in conference rooms,
men have had experiences as trying
if not as thrilling as those in the
camp, on the march, in the trenches,
and in battle.
The strain is easing up, and let us
all hope that nothing may occur to
check the relief. Plenty Of work re-
mains, and must be done. But it is
not of the kind that saps strength as
war work does. 1t does not produce
the same anxieties. 1t does not ban
ish sleep. nor keep men continually
on the jump while awake. 1t will re-
quire teamwork, and years will be
it can be done, and as the American
people are put on their mettle it is
safe to say it will be done.

A SYndicalist.

While little light was thrown upon
the question of the steel strike, the
testimony of Jacob Margolis before
the Senate investigating committee
yesterday was illuminating on the
general subject of syndicalism, I. W.
W.-ism and anarchism as forces in
action today in this country. Mar
golis frankly avowed himself as a
pacifst who carries his views in this
would not resist the action Of ma
rauder who wanted to take his coat or
attack his wife. He does not believe
in government. Yet he wants to re-
organize society. Reorganization by
such forces is not to be feared in
this country, but their effort to change
the order of things may be trouble
some. The problem in the industrial
field today is to prevent radicals Of
this character from gaining control.
W. z. Foster was of the Margolis
stripe at one time, but has now, &C.
cording to his own statements,
"changed his views" Margolis said
yesterday that Fosters idea was to
retain his views and get leadership
within organized labor in order to
forward them. There seems to be a
difference of opinion between the two.
Perhaps it would be a good plan to
get Foster and Margolis together be.
fore the committee and let them
thrash out the question Of whore they
stand and what each is trying to do.

Civilians and War Work.

The Italian ambassador is the lat
that he was very busy man while
hostilities were in progress, and that
since the armistice he had been deeply
worried over complications that have
involved his country. This, it is
thought, fastened his end. His serv-
ices at his post in Washington stamp
ed him as competent man, and his
sudden death will be sincerely la
mented.
An earlier victim was our own Wal
ter Hines Page, whose health failed
at his post in London. He, too, had
worked hard under war pressure, and
was forced TO relinquish his duties
and return home, where he shortly
died.
Ambassador Sharpe found the duties
in France too taxing, and gave them
up to save his health.
The President is in bed as the re-
suit of his long protracted Iabors. He
could not resign, and would not
shirk any call made upon him. In
the circumstances, he kept his feet
a surprisingly long time. More than
two years and a half of observation
of the great conflict, followed by near
ly two years of participation in it
and that capped by six months spent
at the peace conference table, led in
escapably to physical collapse.
Col. House went down under SINH
lar pressure, and is now under a physi
clans care.

Tho Army Melting Pot,

Washington is being given an OBJ
ject lesson Of the work Of the recruit
educational center at Camp Upton,
school currently described as "The
American Melting Pot" Army life
for enlisted men is not now all drill,
guard duty and fatigue. The educa-
tional features, book and hand, are be-
ing emphasized. The work Of the
melting pot school" deals with native
and foreign illiterates and aliens who
cannot speak, read and write Eng
lish.
Appearing in Washington now is a
detachment of men representing four
teen nationalities, including one
American, Three months ago the
aliens were unable to read, write or
speak English, while the American

could not read and write. They have
been taught the rudiments of the Ian
guage while being trained as soldiers.
The purpose Of tho tour Of this de-
tachment is to show what tho Army
is doing by way Of Americanization
and to demonstrate to the people that
in establishing the Recruit Education
al Center the Army has created a
"melting pot" that actually melts.
The American Army seeks now to
make not only efficient soldiers, but
to increase the efficiency Of the men
as citizens when they are discharged
from service. Elementary English
education is provided at the Recruit
Educational Center, and vocational
training in all lines Of trade is pro-
vided by the military authorities. It
is a work which merits public recog-
milton and Endorsement.

The Food-Price Findings.

In its findings on the subject OF al
legged profteering in the District of
Columbia the Senate District suocom-
mittee, reporting to the full commit
tee, makes no reference to relative
rates charged for necessities here and
elsewhere. This is somewhat OF DIS
appointmcnt. although the committee
was not specifically charged IN the
resolution adopted hy the Senate with
an inquiry into that matter and took
no testimony bearing on the relation
of the local prices t. those that pre-
vail in other cities. 1t was hoped
when the inquiry began that some
light could be thrown upon this ques-
ton, for the impression had gained
ground and the charge was directly
made that the Washington merchants
and realty owners were unduly and
excessively charging customers and
tenants beyond the nationally prevail
ing high prices. AS the report stands
there is nothing to prove or disprove
this assertion.
Excessive profits. according to this
report. have been made in Washing
ton by both wholesalers and retailers
in foodstuffs The committee urges
the establishment of large cO-opera-
tive purchasing associations, with
central controlling organization. 1t
recos-mends the establishment of
news Sea: re by the bureau of markets
showing the prices paid to farmers
for foodstuffs. These are the only
positive recommendation in the way
Of remedial relief.
taa sne whole there is but little COM
fort for the people in this report, for
they are told that they cannot indi-
vidually do anything to lessen the
waste which the system of service in
wolves, the housewife who carries her
purchases home paying as much as
the buyer who ORDERS by phone.
Still, they must regulate the mat
ter of price fixing themselves. The
practices of farmers who refuse to sell
directly to consumers at the produce
market is criticized and the committee
finds that prices in that market are
more or less dictated by the prices in
the commission houses.
Immense profits are alleged by the
committee in the handling of food.
Retail prices at times are frequently
200 to 300 per cent higher than whole
sale prices, and the report states that
the retail dealers in meat receive for
cutting, handling and delivering to
consumers greater per cent profit
than the farmers, live stock raisers,
buyers, railways, commission men and
cold storage and packer companies
combined
These disclosures only confirm the
public belief Yet unaccompanied
with any proposal to remedy the con-
dition they are of little value. No
legislation is recommended. The mat
ter is left up to the public 1t re-
mains now to be seen whether the
plan for cooperative buying already
started in some quarters here can be
extended and developed to the point
of effecting a reform in retail prices
through competition by non-profting
combinations of consumers.
