American Delegation Considers Poll.
cies TO Govern Actions In
Armament Conference

Washington, Oct. 10. - The Amer
lean delegation to the armament con-
ference held It's first meeting Wednes-
day, effected permanent organization
made general survey Of the data
gathered for its guidance and began
discussions Of the policies that are to
control the position Of this government
in the coming negotiations.
One OF the first specific subjects to
be considered was the problem Of
opened or closed sessions for the arm
ament conference, and discussions is
said to have revealed considerable
sentiment for opening the doors when
ever the entire body of 'delegates meet
to register important decisions.
Other and broader questions of pol
Icy also were given detailed examina-
ton during the meeting and last night
the delegates continued their discus
sions and heard the views of President
Harding. at White House dinner. No
date was set for the next meeting, but
1t was indicated that another consulta-
ton was probable early next week.
None of those present at the meeting
would reveal details of the delibera-
tions regarding publicity for the con-
ference sessions, but the impression
was given that this government might
lay before the delegates after they as
semble here on November II, pro-
posal that all full sessions of the con-
ference be open to the press.

WHAT is A PIE?

The South Dakota Food and Drug
department in its last bulletin makes
the following appeal to save the name
Of the typical American dessert: This
question at this time is one of much
concern to the man who finds il nee
essary to take many of his meals at
the restaurant or hotel table, but seem
ingly is of small concern to many
bakers and pastry cooks. For the man
who is accustomed to real apple pie.
filed full and deep with real sliced
apples deliciously favored, the substl-
tutes which are often set before him
have no appeal. In fact, the present
tendency among many commercial pie
makers to use substitutes viii soon
cause the American consuming pubic
to urn in disgust from this typical
American dessert unless such substitu-
ton and sophistication is stopped.
A quantity of insipid starch paste
containing a few scattering fragments

may be a pie, but it is not an apple
pie. More starch paste cOlored a deep
pink or cherry-red by means Of coch,-
neal color, doped with benzaldehyde to
initiate cherry flavor and containing
pieces of cooked dried peaches and ap-
ricots, all this when placed between
two circular crusts may make a Man
haitian pie but it does not make a
South Dakota cherry pie, as it has
been sold for. Neither does a mixture
of cherries and dried apples thickened
with starch and equipped with crusts
constitute a cherry pie.
Pies should be true to name. If a
customer asks for a piece of apple pie
he should be given apple pie. The use
of a very small amount Of corn starch
or wheat flour in apple pies for the
purpose of thickening the juice and
rendering the pie capable of being
handled is permissible. But when the

THE EDITOR WINkEO

Madelia News-A preacher came at
the editor in this way: You editors
do not tell the truth. If you did you
could not live; your newspaper would
be a failure" And the editor came
back at the minister in this manner:
you are right, and the minister who
will at all times and all circumstances
tell the whole truth about his mem
bers, alive or dead, will 10 occupy
his pulpit more than one Sunday. and
then he will find it necessary to leave
town in a hurry. The press and the
pulpit go hand in hand with white
wash brushes and pleasant words mag
nifying little virtues into big ones.
The pulpit, the pen. and the grave
stone are the great saint-making tri-
umvirate." And the great minister
went away looking very thoughtful
while the editor turned to his work,
and told of the unsurpassinG beauty
of the bride, who in fact was as home
ly as a mud fence.

quantity of starch or flour is increased
until it replaces most of the apple,
then the product is no longer apple
pie but rather corn starch or wheat
flour pie. In some cases it might be
permissible to add to the description
of such connections the words, apple
flavor but more frequently this had
better be omitted in the interest Of
honest labelling.
Other instances of gross substitution
in pies could be enumerated: for exam
pie, the use of starch paste colored
yellow with coal tar dye in making the
lemon pie; starch paste and cocoa
shells for chocolate pie filling, and e
starch paste substituted for the good
old-fashioned milk and egg custard pie.

hope that the present wave of substi-
