sters and the choice cuts of meat
Some foods that are inexpensive

roast of meat, flank of mutton, cross
ribs of beef, margarine, potatoes,

Foods that are especially rich in
mineral salts are oranges, lines, ap-
Piles, lemons, pears, tomatoes, prunes,
raspberries spinach, Strawberries and
all green's.

spinach, all green's, wheat -four, milk,
butter and several other foods.
Remember that children require
more food in proportion to their size
than adults Particularly is this true
during adolescence, when the active
boy or girl needs more food than
sedentary fathers and mothers
Even although il is true that sugar
is a source of energy, il is advisa bI =
for children to depend on good ALL
round health habits-balanced diet,
rest, exercise and bathing for their
energy. An extra strain of work for
adults may be met by an extra sup

What Today Means to You|

BY MARY BLAKE.

Until noon today's aspects favor a
quiescent mood and attention only to
ordinary tasks and usual routine
After noon they undergo considera BILE
change and counsel aggressiveness
and activity, especially in educational,
scientific or political efforts. Ordi-
nary business will not be affected to
the same favorable extent, and it is
advisable not to make any radical
changes, but to be content for the
time being to let well enough alone.
A child born today has somewhat
delicate constitution, necessitating.
therefore, constant vigilance and
careful nutrition. Its disposition will
be somewhat peevish, which can.
however, be easily eradicated by
cheerful and bright surroundings. II
and pickering the child's peevishn ess
will degenerate in later life into
chronic observation-disclosures. If. how
ever, placed in an environment of
harmony and accord it will outgrow
its early tendency and become COM

Never salt meat that is to be

meat should be salted un-

Oil Flood browns Russian Hearing

now in dire straits, sorely needs him
on the floor of the Senate as long as
oil is being poured out Of the boiling
Teapot.
Senator Borah likewise doesn't
want to miss out on the scandal game
in the Senate. Besides, it is stated
that Borah feels that the Department
Of State has made out such a poor
case that all he needs to do is to de-
liver a speech to expose the weak
ness Of the case against Soviet recog-
milton as made by the State Depart
ment.
Want Hearings Continued.
Many progressive senator's and
congressman, democratic and repub-
lican alike, do not take this view
point said to be held by Borah. They
disapprove very strongly Of giving
up the hearings and letting the Rus
sian question take a back seat. One
Of them told the writer: "Borah

IMPEACH COOLIDGEl
By JAY LOYEsToNE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 29.-The
great attention centered on the oil
investigation and the likelihood Of its
consuming the rest of this session of
Congress have practically wiped off
the list many items Of legislation
that are considered Of great import
ance
One of the questions agitating Con-
gress is that Of recognition of Soviet
Russia. In view of the Teapot up
heaval II is very improbable that
Congress will consider Borah's reso-
luton for Russian recognition.
Busy With Oil.
II is even believed by many that
the hearings before the sub-commit-
tee on foreign relations will not be
resumed. Senators Lenroot and
Pittman, member Of the committee
before which the hearings were con-
Quoted, are also members Of the Com
mittee on Public Lands. This is the
committee now investigating the Do
heny and Sinclair oil leases. In view
Of oil being the drawing card in
Washington's matinee affairs, these
senators are unable to attend the
Russian hearings. Senator Pepper,

Fall 100000. This statement Nc
Lean later .repudiated when Senator
Walsh, Montana, insisted on ques-
tioning him in Palm Beach in Janu-
airy.
Palmer In Bad.
The kilograms which have been
read by the committee tell of Pal
mer's activities only sketchily and
he was called to appear today to ex-
plain details of the work he did in
McLean's behalf.
A dozen or more agents and en-
ployes of Mclean are to be subpoe-
naed next. The kilograms were either
sent by them or involved their names.
They will be required to tell exactly
what was done to keep Mclean from
the witness stand.
The motive behind this line of in
quiry by the committee is to as
certain the truth or falsity Of the
second Mclean statement that he
gave checks for 100000 to Fall but
that Fall returned them and they
were destroyed.
Testimony Of bankers is that Nc
Lean did not have 100000 in the
bank at the time he said these checks
were written.
The committee is convinced that
Mclean knows more than he has
yet told about the entire affair. Nc

evidence. There is no use blinking
the fact that most of our people are
still uniformed and misinformed
about the Soviet Republic. One
speech by Borah, no matter how
powerful and effective, can't do as
much to disabuse the American pub
lie as the overwhelming evidence that
can easily be brought to the commit
tee TO shatter everyone of Hughes
claims and pretensions."
Nothing From Coolidge.
Another prominent figure in Con-
gress said that in his opinion there
is very little chance Of bringing to
bear any successful political pres
sure on the administration for Rus
sian recognition. In his opinion eco
monte pressure, due to the depression
that will soon set in even in the
Eastern manufacturing centers, trans
lated into a need for new markets,
will drive America TO recognize the
Soviets much sooner than most peo-
pie expect.
Nevertheless this solon was OPP
posed to blowing down the campaign
for recognition. He felt confident
that at the first sign Of the present
oil tide being stemmed, the friends
of Russian relations would again
press their case.

Legal Ethics, PaImer's NeU Alb

Lean himself is to take the stand
Saturday.
Ethically Correct, Says Palmer.
A. Mitchell Palmer, Encouragement
in the Wilson cabinet, has denied be-
fore the Senate Oil Committee that
he had tried to impede the oil scan
dial inquiry by any unethical means.
Palmer declared the work he did
for Edward B. Mclean, publisher of
the Washington Post was entirely in
accord with legal ethics.
Palmer was called because his
name appeared frequently in tele-
grams between Mclean and his en-
ployes here, in connection with eff
forts to prevent the committee call
ing Mclean as a witness.
Senator Dill, Washington, Demo-
crat. examined Palmer.
"Were you McLean's friend or at
torney?"
'I've been an acquaintance but !
acted as his counsel"
Gust how were you employed by
him?"
"Mr. Major came to see me-"
'Do you know what date?"
81 think the 26th or 9th of De-
cember."
Palmer produced a telegram which
he said authorized his employment
by Mclean.
It advised Major to tell Palmer
that the only thing that would con-
meet Mclean to the inquiry was the
