REPUBLI lean
WOMEN HERE
ARE ORGANIZED
Especial to The Times.)


Hartford, Sept. 1O-At the meeting
of the State League of Republican
Women at the Garde hotel Wednes-
day night, Mrs. J. w. Alsop, president
of the League, called on Mrs. E. n.
Sperry. of Bridgeport to tell the wo-
men of the political work the Repub-
lican women are doing in the way of
organizing and registering women
here.
MIS- Sperry said that Bridgeport is
divided into IL voting districts and
that four of the districts have two
voting precincts That in each dis
trict the women have a captain who
has a number of women Heutenants
under her and that the territory OF
each district is divided into small sec
tons and a woman is assigned to visit
every house in her district and find
out the political preference of the res
idents and register all that they find
have any leaning to the Republican
party. IN
These women do not tell the occu-
pants Of the houses they visit that
they are working for the Republican
party but give them the impression
that they are simply taking a kind of
census but after getting acquainted
they extol the virtues of the Republic
can policies and candidates and try to
convince the women that the Dem
ocratic party must he defeated at the
coming election.
Mrs Sperry said that number of
the women canvassers had reported
that they had found considerable diff
ficulty in convincing Republican wo-
men that Cox was not a Republican.

ITALY HAS BANK
FOR EX-SOLDIERS

Rome, Sept. 10. King Victor
Emanuel, during an audience granted
to John H. F,ahey, former president
of the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, and to Alfred Dennis
Commercial Attache to the American
Embassy spoke at some length about
a new bank which has recently been
founded in tally.
1t is called the Banca Naziona1o
del Reduce (The National Bank Of
War Survivors,, and its special OBJ
ject Is to give credit to all ex-com-
batants, helping them to start afresh
in business; assisting also their
widows and orphans, or the parents
and sisters of those who died during
the conflict, to all of whom is also
given a discount of one per cent on
all operations.
The King, himself, took a personal
interest in the development of the
new bank and invested $4,000 lire
in it's shares, which he presented to
another war institution, that of the
orphans of fallen soldiers.
The King is anxious that the new
bank should become a link between
Italy and Italian war survivors who
| live abroad, of whom there are over
$4,000 In America alone and an
even greater number in Argentina
and Brazil.

If you prefer a crispy bread a
different recipe and different hand

is best to cook the meal first, as for

used. The following recipes afford

How Corn Products Differ From
Corn and From Each Other

THE North and the South have
many vary Different dietetic
views, and in none do thsy differ
moro widely than on corn meal
Tho Puritan tahss bis ys1low and
the Cavalier Win eat enly the white
Tho Bouthe1ne1 really ought to be
declared tho export. because he eats
30 much more corn than the North
erne1, and It Is only a matter Of
taste and color-since tho variations
in nutritive value arc negligible
tho only difference being that tho
vitamine Is said to follow tho butter
color and to be found in the yellow
meal and not In the white.
Many people think the yellow meal
is richer In fat-not a bit Of II. The
color relates merely to tho variety
Of corn planted, and the amount Of
fat in the meal depends entirely on
whether the germ Is taken out in
grinding or not. Corn as 1t grows
has about 10 PEE cent of protein
and 4 per cent Of fat, regardless Of
whether it Is whitc or yellow; but
because the fat tends to become
rancid under commercial conditions,
especially unless 1t is kept dry, the
meals are nearly all degerminated
and average 9 per cent Of protein
and from O.6 to per cent Of fat,
according to how thoroughly the
germ Is taken out
There Is moro variation /. DIFF
ferent samples Of the same kind
Of corn than there is between the
white and yellow. It is admitted
however, that the yellow corn prod.
ucts have a moro pronounced flavor
than tho white, and TO some this is
pleasant and to others 1t Ia not
What you want to know about corr
meals Is this, 1. Are they deger-

granulated product retains Ehe hard,
hinty portions of the kernel tha4
remain after grinding, while tho
bolted meal represents tho softer,
starchier parts that pass through q
boiling cloth. A yellow granulated
meal is used mostly In the North for
mush, fried or plain, and for fancy
egg and milk corn breads and for
batter cakes A bolted white meal
Is also sometimes used.
8, Do you Ike the taste Of yeIlow
or white corn meal best1 No one
can decide this for you!
The idea that corn products were
too heavy for summer use belongs
to the time when the fat was left
In the meal and It often turned
rancid. This is no longer true Of
any commercial corn product unless
you send right to the mill for the
whole ground grain, and it especially
is not true of tho boxed, prepared
toasted corn flakes, etc., which con-
tain only very small amount Of
fat, even less than the meals, rum
ming in the samples discussed from
O.44 to 0.65 per cent Of fat only.
Being partly "predigested" by the
marked changing Of the starches in
the process of "toasting," this fur
ther makes them fit for summer use.
Mothers often ask. If tho boxed,
faxed and puffed cereals are suit
able for the two and three year olds.
They are, though they may yield
somewhat less actual nourIshment
than the whole grains. But for
variety, to tempt the appetite of the
child who Is weary Of his cereal and
milk diet, especially in the warmer
weather, and because Of their ease of
digestion they are handy to have on
the shelf. Tho saving Of cooking in

and the cereals call for prolonged
cooking to get tho starch in condi-
tion for digestion by tho young in

dren, and communities would be
given an insight into the way IN
which those needs may be met"
Now we realize that these condi-
t1ons were not co-existent, but we
also realize that the moment there
was any chance, by reason Of in
creased production and decreased
demand, Of the price dropping, the
costs Of production and distribution
Immediately operated to cut of the
supply.
We are making no accusations;
we are fixing no responsibility. We
are merely calling attention to sad
combination Of facts. Until the milk
industry Is so organized that its by
products can be handled in a more
flexible and economic way and the
milk itself, the liquid milk, distrib-
uted more economically, there seems
little chance that the children Of the
cities will ever get their fill Of what
is to them "the bread of life" For
children must have milk to live and
thrive. That point has been settled,
If the only thing we can do with
this life-giving fluid when it becomes
plentiful is to throw it away or cut
down on production, then thera is
something radically wrong with the
system. Prohibition .of milk" Is
going too far for nny one.
No one can be expected to run
his business at ,oss-not all the
year round-but most businesses
have their seasonal fluctuations.
This adjustment of the milk bust
ness to the demands of public health
Is something that calls for the best
endeavor we can bring to bear on
i. 1t bristles with real difficulties
not mere PROTECTING, but they must
be solved. 1t does no good to teach
mothers "the basic needs Of thei-
children" unless the Communities
be given an insight into the way in
which these needs may be met"

WN ARE told that owing to the
hold-up on the condensed milk

ting down In butter expectation and
tho !mpossibillty Of quickly read
justing these conditions to handle
q perishable product, there was ap
overflow Of milk about March Is,
tho market was flooded and that
production should be decreased. This
did not alter the fact that one kept
right on paying 16 cents quart for
milk.
In the March issue Of 1.-THE
Journal Of the American Medical
Association" there appeared almost
simultaneously with the occurrence
Just noted the following interesting
paragraphs concerning the unsatis-
fed demand for milk:
"The need for surveys to reveal
exactly what a child ought to have
in order to be properly reared and
what his chances are for getting it
under present conditions is one Of
the topics emphasized In the sew
enth annual report of the chief Of
the Children's Bureau in the United
Srates Department of Labor.
Especial Investigations made by
the Children's Bureau in three
American cities show how babies
have suffered as a result of the ad-
vance in the price Of milk. In Bal
timore, of 728 children between two
and seven years OF age only 20 per
cent are now having fresh milk to
drink, as against 60 per cent a
year ago; In Washington, half Of
those between two and seven years
visited by the public health nurses
we're receiving no fresh milk to
drink, and in New Orleans condi-
tions were even worse. Studies of
the type recommended by the chief
Of the Childrcn's Bureau would
seek to determine all child's
needs. They would be based on
actual living conditions In various
types Of communities, and would
accordingly have practical and
not merely a theoretical value.
Through them mothers would obtain
an authoritative statement concern
