BILLS CALLING FOR ACTION.

Congress is getting to the point where it must devote itself to some of the important bills that are pend- ing if they are going to be disposed of before there is letup in it's ac- tivities for the summer. It seems in- probable that congress will adjourn, but 1t is certain that 1t will take a recess at least, for period of several months, eayly in June. There ia a number of measures that must be gotten out of the way. There must be a disposition of the army reorgan- ization bill and final decision on compulsory training. There will be the report on the soldiers aid bill but whether there will be time enough to whip the bill into shape and get action thereon before a recess is a question, although it would appear that the bill for providing more ade- quate compensation for soldiers pur- suing the rehabilitation courses should receive attention.
 Particular attention is bound to be given this week to the peace resolu- ton that is put forward in view o1 the failure to ratify the treaty. That this resolution will pass botra houses of congress there is no question. Ths only uncertainty about it seems to b, the possibility of passing it over z presidential veto, which there ar, 1ood reasons for believing will be nee

THE HARBoRD REPORT.

With the submission of the Harbord report to the senate by President Wilson the opportunity will be pre- scented for this government to deter mine what it is desirous of doing re- garding the proposition of accepting a mandate in the near east. Hereto fore efforts have been made to have this country accept the mandate for Armenia. Sentiment has been strong ly expressed against it, and the liar bord report does net set forth what ought to be done by this country. It describes the conditions found, recom- mends that there should be a man. date for Turkey and sets forth an equal number of reasons why this country should and should not accept mandate for that region.
 This report is apparently submitted at this time because of the stand the president has taken regarding the driving of the Turks out of Europe It points out that we should not think
 of accepting a mandate for Armenia without complete control of the fis- cal and foreign affairs of the Ottoman 1 empire, that it will require three.
 quarters of a billion by the mandatory
 power during period of five years and the maintenance of an army o. | about 60,000.
 /! It cannot, fail to be noted that on, of the reasons advanced against tn, | acceptance of a mandate in that par
 of the world by this country is that i
 would weaken. our position relativ to the Monroe doctrine" and it is ol
 that ground that strong opposition
 has been manifested ever since tn
 idea was advanced. Just the minut
 that we step in the affairs of Europ
 in such a way we let down the bar
 against European nations moving in
 to what we have considered ou sphere of influence.
 The full report will doubtless she much light on the real situation an
 disclose the need of settling the prob lem in the near east under the bes , possible arrangement but it is seri ously doubted that this country wi undertake to accept any such man date.

nEALINa WITH TRoLLEYs.

When the last general assembly was in session there was disposition to take much the same view of the situation presented and the pleas made for relief of the trolley roads that characterizes the first express sions whenever increased fares are proposed, however much conditions warrant such changes. Nevertheless much that it was said would happen unless steps were taken to bring about relief have transpired-some lines have been abandoned, leased lines have been turned back to the owners. Other lines are on the mar ket and it is desired to abandon more lines, while it is improbable that the question of fares has been entirely adjusted.
 In view of this situation 1t is im- possible to overlook the attitude that s taken by the state chamber of commerce upon this subject when it recommends that the next general as- sembly undertake legislation that will remedy the existing situation.
 Whenever fares are increased, ever though that increase be but cent it is invariably found to have it's ef- feet upon travel until people realize that they should expect to pay for the service they receive, but with the idea of tack-ing the problem from the other direction the state chamber O. commerce favors decreasing the statt tax by one per cent, relieving the companies of the burden of paving between and two feet to each side O their rails and of the one-third ex pense of constructing bridges.
 Such would to a considerable ex tent relieve the trolley companies o certain large expenditures whict would serve to counteract their in creased expenditures under presen conditions and make it possible t avoid seeking higher fares. It woul, relieve them of charges which are no placed against other users of high ways and bridges and therefore un just competition, and in view of wha experience we have had there is goo reason why the trolley probler should get more considerate treat ment in the future than in the imme date past.

HooVER Vs. JOHNSON.

Along with the developments which have taken place within the past week relative to the politics of Herbert c. Hoover, it is plainly indicated that giving permission for his name to be used in the state of California, the state which holds him as a son, means an interesting contest with Senator Johnson not only for the con- trol of the delegation for that state but to disclose the sentiment of the people in that commonwealth relative to the league of nations.
 Senator Johnson, who 1t is not to be denied stands high in the senti- ment of Californians, is an out and out opponent of the league of nations. Not only is he strongly convinced that we should not become party there- to, but he has been persistently ar guing against such d possibility. Not only Is he ro-A5ent of the election of Johnson delegates but he relies upon such as an endorsement of his views on the league of nations.
 Herbert c. Hoover unduestionably has a large following. On the league of nations he takes the view that the treaty with the league should be rati- fled but with the reservations such al have been proposed. He believes tha the interests of the nation should bs safeguarded but that suchI can bt done even if we enter the league, ani with his name presented to the Cali. I fornia primary there is going to bt an opportunity for measuring up tn popularity of. the respective opinions provided of course the people mak
 their selection on that ground.
 Naturally each candidate, for eve1 ] MT. Hoover can hardly be viewed to
 day h any other light, is desirous o the support of the delegation from hi
 own state and special emphasis is be l ing laid upon the views of the tw
 men concerning the league. They ar
 standing for different action on tn treaty while both will appeal to tn DrogreSsive element on other poiY1ts

SUGGESTIONS FOR
THE HOUSEWIFE

THE HOUSEWIVES
 Frozen rice pudding is delicious and wholesome.
 Flour bags make good dishcloths and housecloths.
 Polish windows with newspaper; it leaves no lint.
 Coarse granulated sugar will make a cake of coarse texture.
 If you must be economical on meat be sure to have plenty of milk.
 Honiny grits are good when served with sausage.
 Good food cannot be prepared from poor materials.
 Metal bowl or spoon will discolor sugar and shortening. Delicious and nourishing cakes may be made with chopped dates. A cloth wet with camphor will re- move white spots from furniture. Wash black stockings in fresh suds and rinse in very blue water. Use brown sugar to sweeten cereals; | it makes them taste richer. Meat should never be put in cold water except for making soup. Ammonia and turpentine, equa. parts will take out paint stains. 1 When baking apples individually core them and fill spaces with chop per raisins or dates. A milk container should be ver1 carefully washed and scalded and bt nerfectly sterile before milk is put int ] it.
 { When cooking kippers or herring' first sca1d them with boiling water This takes out a lot of the salt ans 1 improves the flavor of the fish.

HOME GARDENING.

While it may be bit early for some to get out and work their gar dens it is by no means a bit too early to reach decision to continue the home gardening that has been carried on for the past several years.
 It is true that there is not the con- ditions accompanying the war to be met but we have not got so far away from the period of the war that con- ditions are such that the homo gar- deners help is not needed. The effects of the war are still with us and promise to remain for a considerable time. We are producing enough so that we can take care of demands from outside of the country but we have also come to the point where those who produce our foodstuffs are more and more feeling the effects of help/ shortage, or if help can be ob- tained there are questions about wages which leave the farmer unde- rided whether he will take the chance of disposing of his produce at the price he will have to charge to meet he situation and get a living.
 That the home gardens have pro- luced millions of dollars worth of loodstuffs cannot be questioned. aand Ehey are needed today as a means oi effsetting the higN cost of living just IS much as they have been at any other time. They mean the utiliza. ton of a vast acreage that would produce little otherwise. They also mean that profitable use is being made of many a spare hour whicf would otherwise be idled away ant they invariably mean to those wht cultivate them exercise that is tn, best kind of tonic for good health.
 The army of home gardeners shoul,
 therefore undergo no depletion il this or succeeding years. The bene dts aecruing therefrom are many ant while experience helps there is non who cannot wield the spade and tn hoe with good results. Self hei through the home garden ought not t be ignored.

LAUNDRY LORE

Starch muslin and laces iron easier and look much nicer if sprinkled with hot instead of cold water.
 One will have success ip making starch by boiling it long while in- stead of pouring the boiling water over it and not boiling it.
 Do not use wool blanket on your ironing board. which holds moisture and makes your clothes hard to iron dry Use instead one pound of cot ton batting, spread over the top, and cover with one thickness of cotton flannel, tacking lightly. Cover this with one thickness of smooth muslin You will have an excellent surface fo1 ironing.
 To make a faded dress white boil fl in two gallons cUf water in which q half cup of cream of tartar is dis. solved.
 When washing or rinsing colored 1 material add a tablespoonful of epson salts to each gallon of water, and ever the most delicate shades will neither | fade nor run

HEALTH AND BEAUTY

Be sure that the air in the living room does not get too dry or the fam fly will have an epidemic of colds.
 Do not forget to open the kitchen window occasionally Fresh air lessens fatigue.
 A carefu1s pedicuring should follow the hot foot bath semi weekly and is just as important as manicuring. The nails do not need trimming as fre- quently as those of the fingers, as they grow more slowly. They should be kept at moderate length and will im- prove under the same care you give your finger nails.
 Tired, swoolen feet may be greatly benefited by dissolving in foot bath two teaspoonfuls of a powder made of these Ingredients:
 Rock salt 2 ounces; borax, ounces; alum, 1 ounce. Rubbing the soles of your feet with cut lemon will re- freshen and ease them from fatigue Hot sea salt baths are also very rest | ful and beneficial to feet inclined to
 swell from long standing.
 | The skin of the neck needs to be
 massaged with cold cream as often as
 the face, for dirt and dye from the
 clothing are bound to rub in and dis
 color it. In fact, any face treatment
 should always be extended to include | the neck. Ice rubs and the use oi astringents are particularly valuable Besides this, the neck should be kept young by little daily exercise. Roll. ing the head around the shoulders anG | bending it back and forth are simple and very easily done exercises.

HARD SOAP

One pound potash, one quart water, one half cup borax, two tablespoonfuls liquid ammonia, six pounds good clear grease; dissolve the potash in one
 quart of cold water, melt grease so that it will be free from Jumps, but do not have it hot.
 When potash is thoroughly dissolved add borax and ammonia; pour this into the grease, stir while pouring and con- tinue stirring for one-half> hour, for the secret of good soap is in mixing
 the ingredients thoroughly. Pour the
 mixture into a large baking pan. In a few hours mark it off in squares the desired size; let it dry month or
 more and it will be nice and white.

essary if it is to be adopted. Such action will depend upon the attitude taken by the democrats held in line by the same influence that forced many of them in the senate to block ratification with reservations. Should the resolution fail it is probable that there will be a resort to efforts to end the war legislation that the country may get back to a peace time basis by having the handicaps which have been bothering for some time elimi- mated.
