PERMANENT POSTAL
RATES NOT READY
Postmaster General Unable
Now to Accurately Estimate
the Schedules.

Permanent postal rate schedules
cannot be recommended - Congress
before February because of the in
ability Of the Post ONCE Department
TO give accurate estimates on the op-
alton of the present temporary
rates before that time. it was an
nouuCed yesterday.
The Joint Congressional Postal Com
mission decided that their recom-
mendations would have to wait fer
an accurate report from the Post
Office Department before they could
submit their recommendations TO Con
gress This decision of members Of
the commission was made despite the
instructions given at the last session
to have their report ready early next
month.
New Foresees $32 100000 Increase.
Postmaster General New told the
commission yesterday that from the
best information obtainable from so
OF the largest post offices the depart
ment's guess would be that the tenn.
porarv rates would increase annual
revenues about S32 900, 900. This rep
resents slightly less than half of the
amount by which Congress has in,
creased the postal pay roll,
Only one recommendation for a
change in the temporary rates was
submitted, Mr.. New proposing a re-
turn to the former rate of mail matter
newspapers and periodicals remailed
by individuals-regardl of the dis
tance. The rate was increase in the
temporary law in some cases more
than APO per cent and has resulted,
Mr.. New said. in decreasing revenues
from this source.
Daco,,Y,oud Ia finna Submitted
Recommendation against the
adoption of various changes in rates
proposed at the public hearings held
by the commission over the country
during the Summer were submitted by
both Mr.. New and Joseph i. Stewart,
his executive assistant. These in
cluded:
A return to the second-class news
paper and periodicaD rates in effect
during the fiscal year 1920.
Elimination of the fiat rate now
granted to religious, fraternal, agri-
cultural. labor and educational publ
cations.
A low rate for newsdealer package
of periodical matter. approximating
the freight or express rate now given
for such service by private companies.
Reduction of the number of deliv-
cries in cities, as proposed by the
American Farm Bureau Federation
Statement by Stewart.
Mr.. Stewart told the commission
that adoption of the 1920 second class
! rates would mean a loss of $4,000, 900
, in revenue annually; that a fiat rate
! for special publications would in
! crease revenues by less than 1,000,-
| 600 a year, and that a rate for news
| Il nl-
| prove burdensome from q financial
and operating standpoint.
| In suggesting that the commission
wait until after q report of the pres
ent quarter, which would include the
! Christmas business Of the depart
ment, Mr.. Stewart said it was essen
tial to find out just how the third
class and postcard business holds
up lndcr the present rates.

SWEETbREAD IS
NUTRITIOUS
MEAT GUT
Many Housewives Do Not
Knew the Value Of
Beef Cuts.
By ERNA J. BERTRAMS
Director Of Food Economics. Armour
and COMPANY.

Director Of Food Economics, Armour
and Company.
How often do you wish for some
new meat TO have for dinner-some
change from the inevitable steaks or
roasts. Since there is no new meat
animal to turn to for food, the only
recourse we have is to make the full
est use Of the present meat foods.
There are many parts Of the meat ami
nal that are little or never used by
many housewives. This is because
women have failed to realize the nutri-
tional as well as economical value OF
these meats. An example OF the less
known cuts Of meat is the beef sweet
bread.
At this season OF the year beef
sweetbresds are an excellent buy. The
housewife as a rule has heard the
praises sung TO calf sweetbreads and
therefore has not given the beef prod
uct much thought.
EASILY PREPARED
Beef sweetbreads may be used just
the same as calf sweetbreads. and are
very much less expensive. One good
French cookbook gives no less than p
different ways TO prepare and serve
sweetbreads. They are considered a
great delicacy and are served at elab-
crate luncheons as well as for the
main dish at dinners. Because Of this
many seem to be inclined TO associate
sweetbreads with extravaganza. but as
a matter of fact. beef sweetbreads are
an economical dish. There is little or
no waste TO this meat food. 1t IS
easily digested, extremely delicate and
makes an excellent dish for the con-
valescent.
In every case use beef sweetbreads
from government inspected cattle.
Soak the fresh or frozen sweetbreads |
in ice water for half an hour. After
soaking, wash well and put into boil
ing calculated water, prepared BY
using one tablespoon vinegar and one
feaspoonful salt for each quart of
water. Simmer for thirty minutes.
Drain, plunge into cold water 10 make
firm. Remove the membranes and the
sweetbreads are ready for any Of the
following dishes:

will. however. continue to do foolish
things on the field. True, other
players have done foolish things, but
Altrock does them Intentionally.
The 1898 roster of the Washing.

has been relegated to the position of
coach, where previously he had been
a player. Altrock batted for 1000
in the eason of 1924 when he hit
for three bases in Washington's last
game against the Red Sox. The
Boston outfielders. bent upon al
owing Nick to score a home run,
failed to field the ball slowly enough.
for Atrock sat down at third base
and refused to continue to the plate.
Nick had every reason to believe
that he would be n OF the regular
pitching staff during the coming
season and entered a period of Sc

WORLD CHAMPS
HOLDING OUT
Contract Signing a t
Washington Said
To Be Slow
BY JOHN u. FOSTER

Copyright 1925. Casper Tribune)
NEW YORK, Jan. 23-Some Of
the Washington players are taking
their time about signing contracts
for 1925 and letting it be known that
they figure themselves worth more
money for next summer because
they participated in the winning OF
n major league and a world cham.
~pionship last year.
Winning a championship. of
course Is exactly what these players
were hired to do. Had they finish
ed in last place instead of first. there
is not a n of them who would have
taken a reduction in pay In the
same spirit in which they are asking
for an increase. But they are ask
ing for il just the same.
The players involved-there is no
general hold up-figure that Wash
ington will earn more profit this
Near than last and they feel that
they should have a percentage of
the sun in advance. The list of
those who r taking their time
about signing up s. said to include
Peckinpaugh. captain of the team,
whose baseball career perhaps has
not much further TO go: Goslin, the
tis batter. who picked up greatly
in 1924 and Is nearer stardom than
he ever was before; two or three of
the pitchers. including Zachary and
another outfielder who may be Sam
Rice. There also is some rumor
that Ruel mas not rushed to sign.

FINN NOT TO

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-From Chi.
cage comes wingiug the statement
of an impartial observer that Paavo
Nurmi had very excellent reasons
for the crouch he developed over the
conditions that obtained at the Coli
scum the night he ran the mile and
a quarter under the auspices of the
Illinois Athletic club.
OF course no one would accuse the
Illinois Athletic club of being SO
carried away by civic pride as to
have the phantom Finn come to
Chicago with the object of being
defeated by Joie Ray. the idol Of
the windy city.
But at the same time. being a for
eigner and in the nature of things
suspicious of strangers in a strange
land. It is not to be regarded as alb
surd that Nurmi should have formed
certain conclusions.
In fact. the Firms attitude seemed
to be that all preparations had been
made to handicap him. This is
not to charge that such was the
case, only stating how Nurini
seemed to feel about It.
First of all. the track was small.
The turns were very steeply ditched,
according to the writer's Chicago In.
formant. He adds that 1t was In
extremely poor condition. There
were wen nails sticking up in places
1t was Nurmi insisting that these
be hammered down. SO it was al.
legged.
An incident that seemed to peeve
Paavo was the ceremony with which
Ray was received when he arrived
on the track. Among other things,
a big boquet of flowers was present
ed to him. while Nurmi appears TO
have been pretty much ignored.
