to be an influential senator or
not-is very great. 1t Is greater than
the power attaching to any individual
in any other legislative body. The
power of the senator is derived from
erning the Senate, and is lodged par
ticularly in the rule which permits
unlimited debate on any subject. Here
in lies the real secret which has pre-
vented majority rule in the Senate

vented the adoption of a real cloture

Just before the United States en-
tered the world war when President
Wilson was seeking to have Congress
put through a measure providing for

the American flag and going over
, seas, the measure was blocked by a
very small percentage of the mem
bers of the Senate. An all-night fiii-
buster conducted by these senators

vented action on this measure, which
the President deemed necessary to the
protection of American rights on the
high seas. the Congress then expiring.
Mr.. Wilson dubbed these senator's a
little group of willful men" and when
the Senate met in special session
shortly afterWard one of it's first
moves was toward a cloture rule.
But III" rule adopted requires a
two-thirds majority if it is to be in
voked and as a matter of fact it has
only been invoked once during the
years since 1917, and that was on the
Versailles treaty of peace. A recent
attempt by the republicans of the
Senate to bring about cloture on the
tariff bill was defeated. In the Senate

In such a case as that JUST conclud'

Czolgosz was brought to trial on the
23d of September and on the 26th was
convicted and sentenced to die on the
2Sth of October. That case was even
more quickly brought than that OF
the Wilson assassins in London. On
the other hand, the trial of Guiteau
who killed President Garfield, was
more protracted. The shooting took
place on the I'd Of July. 1881. and the
President died on the 18th Of Septem

This is really interesting.
First. We are hereby advised that
some of these danger stunts seen in
movies are the genuine article. Most
of us had supposed that all this was
taken care of by the tricks of
photography" We are sure il can
be done by trick work. and because
of this assumed that such is the way
they always do 1t. There is no good
sense in risking neck and limb when
the stunt can be done without taking
chances.
Second. we learn that at least they
don't risk the stars neck in filming
these stunts. They keep a double"
for this purpose. Anyhow. it is pleas
ing to be advised that we don't have
to worry over the possible manning

for her.

world, to whom we owed vast sums,
could surely be counted upon TO send
their ships to our shores that we
might pay in our products the debts
we owed them.
Today, however. they are the
debtors, we the creditors; there is
not the same reasons why they
should send their ships for our sur
pluses. Moreover. VIC must compete
with them if we arc to dispose Of our

TUo simple home tests
Low Melting Point
Easy Digestibility!

Into half a glass Of lukewarm
water drop small lump each Of
Crisco and any other shortening.
With a spoon gradually add hot
water until Crisco melts. You will
find that few other fats melt at this
point. Food authorities say that
an easily digested fat should melt
near body heat-o8 2/S degrees.
Crisco, you will find, melts even
below this temperature. 1t melts
at 81 degrees. (This test does not
necessarily condemn the digesti-
bility Of the other fat, but it wiU
aid you to establish Crisco's fine
digestibility.)
The Morning Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Okla.) 1919-1927, 1922-10-15
Avoid Smoke and
Odor!

Put into separate pans equal
amounts of Crisco and any other
fat. Heat slowly for eight minutes
or until they reach a temperature
where a bread crumb browns in
40 seconds.
Notice that the Crisco, unlike
most cooking fats, does not smoke
at this proper frying temperature.
You will find that frying with
Crisco will be very helpful in
keeping your whole house fresh
and free from the odor of cooking
fats.
