HARDING FACES BIG
WAR CLAIM PUZZLE
Property Custodian Miller Ex-
plains the Situation to Re-
publican Club.

Thomas w. Miller. the Alien Property
Custodian speaking yesterday before tn,
National Republican Club, declared tha
the Harding Administration Is facing
situation no previous had--one created
by the backwash of a war that mad
those before it seem puny.
Then. speaking of the problems hi.
own office faces, he said:
"In the peace resolution reference Is
made to American claims against
Germany, they being divided into two
classes:
II. Americans whose cash was seized
by the German custodian and to whom
Is being offered the return Of their
cash at the deprecated value of the
mark. which If accepted, would amour,
to practical confiscation.
'2. Claims of Americans on file In
the State Department for loss OF prop.
erty and life at sea because of sub
marine sinkings before April 6. 1917
the total amount of these claims beins
about $500, 100000.
1T is patent that the S40O, 900, 900 o
alien property cannot be used to satisfy
these claims without resorting to the
confiscation OF private property, which
Is repugnant and not to be considered.
1T might be that the Governmen,
would settle OF underWr1te these claims
and be reimbursed from year to year
until the whole indebted ness would be
cleared up. This scheme might be a
practical one to solve the problem oi

the settlement of proper claims agains

the Robins Dry Dock Company struck
up. In his address Mr.. Riegelmann COM
plimented the manner in which Brooklyn
manufacturers had arranged the dis
plays and said:

great deal toward bringing our bor-
ough into the public eye as tremen-
dous manufacturing center.
Many business conventions and ex-
hibits have been held before In Brooklyn,
but this one is said to be the first to be
conducted exclusively by manufacturers

the booths but 1t was explained that
81 hot
PRODUCTS were manufactured In Brooklyn.
Moro than half of the exhibits show
model machinery in operation and In
many cases actually turning out goods
tefore the eyes of the visitors. These,
termed working exhibits" were among
the most popular attractions. In the
belief that they are OF particular edu-
cational value public school pupils are
to be invited to attend during the week
and are granted free admissions.
The complete bungalow attracted o
steady crowd of interested spectators.
especially young persons. as attendants
were on hand to answer all questions

THE PROMISED TREAT.

Snowfall wasn't sorry that Johnnie Green had turned him into the pas turc. He found the pasture a delight tul place, He had plenty Of com. pdnN for there was a whole flock of sheep with him. And not only did he soon become acquainted with them, but he met other folk, such as Billy WoodchGck and Jimmy Rabbit and old Mir. Crow And though some of the older sheep paid scant heed to so young a lamb as Snowfall. Mir. Crow often went out of his way io stop and talk with him.
 That was because Mir. Crow loved a bit of gossip. And he was willing to chat with anybody on the chance of picking up some interesting morsel of news.
 We're going to have a treat" Snowfall informed old MT. Crow one day,
 The old gentleman cooked his head one one side and looked at Snowfall.
 How do you know you are?" he demanded, He was q great one for asking questions
 "The Muley Cow told me" Snow ball explained. Down in the barn she heard Farmer Green tell Johnnie about it"
 "Ah, hal" cried Mir, Crow. "Ill have to keep an eye on things. If

Timber. coal and iron ore are there and in many places there is excellent soil and good Only American capital could or would undertake such mag worth while task as the de- velopment of this country.

A dinner salad is preferably composed of salad greens "i'l maNpe strip or two of aspara- gus or some other fresh vegetable to give tone, and plain French dressing | II the greens are crisp and dry and the dressing carefully seasoned the
 perfection of the salad is assured.
 To prepare salad greens for q salad: If possible wash each leaf i under running water, holding the leaf open and at sharp angle. Tiny invisible insects are washed off and any sand or dirt is carried away by ] the force of the water.
 Shake each leaf as free from wa ter as possible and put on a clean dry towel to drain. Wrap loosely in the towel and put in a cold place for an hour or longer
 The lettuce or other salad plant becomes very crisp under this treat ment and seems to have a fresh devil ness quite impossible to attain by washing and drying each leaf with a towel. The French housewife has wire salad basket. She puts her carefully washed greens in this wire box and whirls them rapidly. This dries the plant quickly but fails to give the crispness.
 Always pull off any wilted edges of the leaves with the fingers. Shred the plants with a silver knife. Never leave the salad till the last minute when preparing a meal. It takes time to wash and crisp salad plants.
 Do this right after lunch and have everything ready to put together when needed. A green saIad with French dressing should not stand after being mixed for the oil and vinegar wilt the leaves.
 There are many salad plants 10 choose from. Try them all and avoid monotony. Keep this list in mind when you go to market and be on the lookout for something different,
 Of course lettuce comes first Most persons prefer head lettuce, but leaf lettuce contains quite as many of the much talked of vitamnes as head Water cress, curly endive, romaine, French endive, chicory, young dande- lions, parsley, mint nasturtlums, ten
