Teach Europe
Corn Is Food

ferred rye when wheat was not TO be
had.
Americans have felt that this dislike
was due mainly to ignorance-not
many Europeans know much about
corn and those who have tasted 1t
more often than not were prejudiced
by bad cooking.
There is story along this line
about Carlyle and Emerson. Emerson
wrote to his friend, Carlyle, recon-
mending corn as food and saying
that he had sent a package so that
the Carlyle family might try it. Car
lyle wrote back politely to thank Mr..
Emerson, but to say that after several
experiments they really did not find
the flavor of corn meal agreeable. The
correspondence stopped here until Mrs.
Emerson could copy Off some of her
best recipes. Then the Carlyles were
asked to try again. They did, and
wrote back enthusiastically to know
where they could get more of the
American delicacy.
Believe Europe Would Like II.
This incident, from the letters of
Carlyle and Emerson, is one of the
grounds on which Americans base
their conviction that Europe would like
corn If 1t could ever be persuaded to
give II fair trial. The department
of agriculture once sent demonstrators
and lecturers to Europe TO enlighten
the different countries as to the posi-.
bilities of Indian corn. Neither elo-
quence nor samples of corn disguised
in griddle cakes, mullins, gingerbread
or corn pone aroused any enthusiasm.
Mostly those present did not even come
forward to get the samples.
Because of such experiences, when
the food shortage began to afflict
Europe. the United States did not send
corn to the rescue. You may remem.
Der that Herbert Hoover urged us to
cat more corn and save wheat because
Europe could not very well be taught
to eat new kind Of food In so critical
a period.
Now the situation Is different and
Hoover accepted the offered corn glad

ly. About 100000 bushels, 1t Is an.
nounced, will be fed TO children of the
famine areas, and probably most Of u
will be prepared by the relief organi.
cations, and served to the children al
feeding centers.
What goes to adults may or may nd
be cooked before distribution. Wher

doubtless will be given to insure sufit
cient cooking.
Good Nutrltlve Value.
With adequate cooking the nutritlve
value of corn is about the same as
that Of wheat. Corn contains a large
amount of sugar and starch which
supply the body with heat and energy,
1t also has a good deal of protein
which builds up the body tissues. II
is not, however, rich in minerals, need.
ed in bone formation. Experiments
have shown that corn Is about as di.
gestible as wheat and that 80 per cent
of its dry matter is absorbed In the
process Of digestion.
Possibly 1t does not become America
to be too impatient with the European
lack Of appreciation Of corn. The high
nutritive value of corn is realized all
over this country and We have been
eating 1t ever since the Pilgrims, by
accident, dug up some seed corn bur
led by the Indians and got them to
explain the growth and uses of the
grain. Further back than that, Column
bus is said to have found corn grow
ing over here, and the Aztecs In their
great civilization used it. This coun-
try has had plenty of time TO study
corn and Its uses. Yet 1t Is estimated
that less than 10 per cent of our big
corn crops Is eaten by people, whereas
practically all of the wheat is turned
into flour.-Frederlc ]. Haskln In Chi

ST. PAUL WILL RETAIN
COMMISSION RULE

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Dec. 30-St. Paul
will continue to operate under the
commission form of government as
the result of the defeat of a proposed
new charter at special election held
yesterday.
Although a spirited campaign has
been waged for several weeks, a com
paritively light vote was cast, and
to this advocates of the change from
commission government TO the Alder
manic system ascribed its defeat. OPP
ponents of the proposed new charter
attacked what they termed its re
dictionary character in reverting TO the
ward representation plan.
Approximately $4,000 votes We're
cast. of which 1923 were for the new
charter and 21,549 against. But three
wards out of the city's II voted in
favor of the proposed charter.

LOLITA ARMOUR RISES
TO Defend L0RENz

CHICAGO, Dec capitalization of
an article in the Journal of the Ameri-
can medical association that the cure
of Lolita Armour, daughter of ]. Og-
den Armour of Chicago by DR. Adolf
Lorenz of Vienna, was not cure"
today brought out a statement from
the former Miss Armour, who is now
Mrs. John j. Mitchell, Jr In 1903 and
1904 operations were performed by DR..
John Ridlon of Chicago and DR.. Lorenz
on Mrs. Mitchell
Il cannot say that perfect cure has
been effected in either hip, but the
hip treated by DR.. Lorenz is far bet
ter than the other one. with which he
could do little because it had been
!. too badly mishandled' he said. 81
myself believe that had it not been
for the work done before he was
called in my case he could have eff
fected a complete cure.
''Dr. Lorenz does not claim to be a
miracle man. He is simply doing the
best he can | believe he had been
too much exploited by those who are
handling his finances. He has been
given too much publicity, which l am
sure he does not want and does not
appreciate. He is doing all he can
under the circumstances.
There is of course much jealousy
among doctors, and they are not eager
to see great honors go to a foreign
doctor. Personally | am very fond OF
DR.. LorenZ, and | feel that if it had
not been for him | would not now be
getting so much pleasure out of life

BELGRADE, Dec. 30 Interesting
details have come to light respecting
he late King Peter, Serbia's venerable
ruler and the grand old man" of Eu-
rope, who passed away IN this city a
short time ago.
During his last illness the king
asked frequently for his son Alexander,
who found ii impossible to be with
him because of his own serious illness
N Paris. He was much attached to
the prince regent and referred to him
as my little Aleck" He had the full
est confidence in him and during the
last years of his life left the affairs of
state entirely in his hands.
He had been especially anxious that
his son should marry Princess Olga,
daughter of the Car of Russia, but
whatever prospect there was for the
match disappeared in the murder of
/ the beautiful princess by the Bolshe-
| Wiki
| The king died a poor man What
ever personal possessions he had were
lost during the tragic retreat to Corfu
/ in the grim days of 1915 when the
| German hordes overran the little Slav
state. When the correspondent asked
one of the late monarch's old friends
/ if the king had left any legacies, he re
p! piled: Yes, wooden trunk, bed
stead, a few ikons, great character
and an undying memory.
Wished to See America
! In the years preceding his i'll health
it was one of the kings most cherished
hopes that he might visit America He
was a great admirer of the energy, in
dustry and capacity of the people OF
the United States. He felt that Serbia
owed a great deal to America for its
championship of the rights of the
smaller nations, and especially for its
support of Jugoslavia's claims at the
Paris Peace Conference. The ageC
sovereign held former President viii
son in high esteem.
Throughout his II years King Pete

tastes. He disliked ceremony and haC
