PARLIAMENT To
HAVE DULL
SESSION
Only Technical Legislation
Listed, But Lively Debates
Are Expected
By II. A. WRAY,
international News service

1MtC1A4SlOAAA1A
LONDON. Nov. 20. Exciting oc'
casional debates, but q very dull
legislative program is the prospect
for the parliamentary sittings
which opened Monday after an ad-
journment Of three months and
a half.
No ceremonial attends the re.
sumption.
The program Of legislation laid
down for the present sittings-
which are expected to last between
four and five weeks-is purely
technical.
Only two measures of first-class
importance will be introduced. One
relates to criminal justice, the
other to Rates and Tithes" and
both consist OF amendments to al.
ready complicated legislation.
Reports win be presented In re-
gard to further tariffs to be i'm
posed under the safeguarding OF
Industries act, but no legislation
thereon will be undertaken until
next year.
But when it comes to debates,
many lively subjects win present
themselves for discussion.
The Locarno pact win have first
place, and although the govern
ment will secure the ratification OF
the past without question. yet par
ties will be completely split on the
issue.
Many of the Tory rank and file
as well as important newspaper
publishers like Lord Rothemere and
Lord Beaverbrook are against the
pact: on the other hand Liberal
L. 7 ~ a
Grey favor it heartily, while Lloyd
George opposes 1t tooth and nan.
The labor party Is mainly in Its
favor.
The coal settlement of July last
will also come in for vehement de-
nouncement during debate.
During the recess, opinion against
1t has hardened o n i s h n 6 y
throughout the country, and there
ia a growing body of opinion in the
Tory party that the government
would have done better to have
fought the miners on their own
ground, there and then, rather
than have given them a subsidy
and left the issue over until next
May.
Anti.Reds Growing
has grown by leaps and bounds
in Britain during the past two
months and the government, by
some of it's own supporters. will
be accused of pandering to Com
munism in the coal settlement.
French proceedings at Damascus
will furnish one days exciting de-
bate.
The government will be closely
examined in regard to the amount
Of compensation received for dam
ages to British property and the
entire question Of French policy In
inundated Syria may come up for
review.
The evacuation Of Cologne is an
other subject set down for discus
sion and altogether, If legislation
is dull, outside affairs are likely
to make the present sittings fairly
lively.

SIMPLE MEAL SHOULD Be
COOKED ON CLEANING DAY

Most women find it rather difficult
to supply we'll cooked, wholesome
meals to their families during fall
house cleaning. but it is very simple
TO do if one will plan them early in
the day. As rule boiled and ported
dishes are the best and easiest TO
make, particularly if one has an cleo
tric range or fireless cooker TO work
with. Here are several menus which
| tried out in my own home during n
very busy session of house cleaning
and which. once prepared and placed
in either the electric range oven or the
fireless cooker, gave me no further
work until dinner time arrived.
DINNER NO. I.
Boiled ham, Savoy cabbage, sweet
potatoes, fruit and coffee.
Soak the ham in cold water for an
hour. Then rinse it and put it in the
large cooking vessel of the electric
cooker. If the pot is large enough 10
hold the cabbage, add that: or if not,
cook the cabbage separately in only
the water which adheres to it after
washing. Wash the potatoes and place
them in another pot with n cupful of
water. When these have all been put
in the cooker or in the range oven
turn on the heat and keep it at "high'
for an hour. Then switch it off il
your cooker or range oven is not con-
trolled by thcrmostat and let the
dinner finish cooking in the stored
heat. il very hot food is desired turn
on the heat for about IL minutes be-
fore taking the food out,
DINNER NO. ?.
Pot roast and vegetables, salad.
cheese, coffee.
Wipe the pot roast and dredge it
with flour. Then brown it on all
sides. This should be done on heat
or unit of your electric range over
"high" heat or on the cooking top of
the electric cooker. When the meat
is thoroughly Drowned, add the onions,
carrots, one medium sized can Of to-
matoes, the same quantity of water.
a bay leaf, quarter teaspoonful Of
pepper, one teaspoOnful of salt and
place it all in the cooking compart-
ment. The potatoes can be added
later or they may be cooked at the
same time in a separate vessel. For
the pot roast keep the heat going in
the oven or cooker for one hour, then
switch it off and the stored heat will
finish the cooking. 49,.
DINNER NO. 8.
Lamb and veal stew, vegetables,
waffles and syrup, coffee.
For four people / usually buy one
and half pounds of lamb from the
shoulder and one and a half pounds Of
veal. After washing this meat care
fully I brown it as for pot roast. add
ing the vegetables and a quart Of wa.
ter to it after the meat has been
Drowned. Six medium-sized onions
and carrots, the latter diced, a pound
of peas. two stalks of celery and one
large tomato are adequate for the
amount of meat. When the meat and
vegetables are together, season to taste

During the early fall months We

try 10 cook meals which will last two
days. Such dinners may have, as the

CORNED BEEF. CABBAGE.
Wash the piece of corned beef first
and then put it in big pot which will
also hold the cabbage. always add a
tablespoonful of vinegar to make it

also does not require as much water
as would be needed when cooked on a
Ton. unit. so i put in only about q
quart of water. When it comes to
boil I add the cabbage and turn on
the heat at low and let the meat and
cabbage simmer. Thus the cabbage is
really steamed and retains all its
strength in addition to absorbing the
taste Of the meat. When the several
hours Of simmering are over tn.
