At this very time. all over our land,

world, at least financially, the capital
of the greatest democracy the world has
ever knoWn--the residents thereof have
no vote This too. in face of the
TACT that they pay taxes amounting to
three -fOurths OF the annual cost of
maintaining and governing the Dis
trict OF Columbia, the United States
paying but a fourth. They have no
representation in the Congress which
!evies these taxes, thus being deprived
of their fundamental rights as recog-
nized long before the War Of the Revo-
luton and established for all time by
the outcome of that war.
This situation has arisen primarily
because when the seat of government
was established here no one contem-
plated depriving the residents of the
vote; but being few-and a matter
anyway that might be righted at any
time--it drifted along. Attempts were
made from time to time to correct the
defect, but with no result.

there has been agitation for changes
looking toward suffrage for the District.
The various groups. through confer
ences, conversations and compromises,
finally agreed that they would back a
constitutional amendment which would
enable Congress to enfranchise the resi-
dents of the District of Columbia. Since
1916 the so-called joint committee,
composed of delegates appointed by the
various organizations favoring suffrage
for the District. including the Chamber
of Commerce, Board of Trade, Wom-
ems City Club, and many others, have
appeared before committees of the Con-
gress and presented arguments urging
the submission by Congress of the
constitutional amendment to the people
of the country.
This. constitutional amendment IS
deemed necessary because the Consti-
tuition provides that Congress shall
have exclusive jurisdiction over the

Of the amendment maintain that rep

KELLOGG SENDS LETTER
OF THANKS TO HOUGHTON
Secretary Expresses Appreciation
of Work Accomplished by
Retiring Ambassador.

BY the Associated Press
Secretary Kellogg yesterday addressed
a letter to Alanson B. Houghton, whose
resignation as United States Ambassador
to Great Britain was accepted the past
week by President Coolidge, thanking
him for his services and assistance as
American representative in European
countries in postwar years.
Il am very sorry that I was in the
West when you called in Washington
and that l have not since had an OPP
portunity to see you," Secretary Kellogg
wrote
Il did not learn that you had tender
ed your resignation until a few days
ago. | wish to express my heartfelt
appreciation of your cordial and effec-
tive cooperation while / have been
Secretary of State and for the assistance
you gave me when you were Ambassador
to Germany and,I Ambassador to Great
Britain. The State Department appre-
ciates the splendid tact and skill you
exercised in the arduous postwar years.
You have as Ambassador for six and
half years to Germany and Great
Britain rendered this Government serv-
ice OF the highest order and had most
distinguished diplomaticI career"

a community anywhere that is filter!
Take any test you like-intelligence,
property, maintenance Of public order,
patriotic response to the obligations o.
citizenship The answer is the same.
The people of the District, then, VIII
not stand aside next Tuesday because
they are either disinterested Or unnt
But simply because. unlike the rest oil
the country, they are arbitrarily eX-
cluded.
What is the reason for this anomaly?
The answer is simple. There is no
reason. No man has yet given real
reason Why half million Americans
living in the Capital of America should
be excluded from all participation In
the American Government.
why. then cannot the people CT the
District get their natural rights recog..
nized? When they ask the normal
rights of American citiz1ns. they are
fobbed off with old stuff about this
being the seat of Government. and the
necessity for Congress to be supreme.
Well If two Representatives for the
District sit in the House. and one Or
two Senators sit in the Senate, will
Congress be any the less supreme?
That is the one thing the Con>tjtu-
ton makers wished to accomplish
that the legislation of Congress in this
district should be exclusive, and not
shared, as in the States, with any other
government. Well. the grant to the
District of Columbia of two Representa-
tives and the two Senators will not
change that.
How many of the millions who are
going to vote next Tuesday will dream
of their subjects in the District OF Co
lumbia? How many of them really
know that half million OF their fel-
low citizens have no lot, no part
no voice In the Government of the
country?
The fathers never had any such in
tention Their sole wish was that here
Congress should be supernatural there
should not be State government here
which might attempt to set its vii
against the will of Congress. Our
amendment leaves that cornerstone un'
touched.
Another question put to us is. why
does this amendment leave the matter
discretionary with Congress? Tht
answer is simple. We leave It witt
Congress because Congress is the At
test judge of the time. place and cir.
cumstances for any new community Il
exercise in point of fact the rights ol
self-government universally conceded ir
principle. Let Congress have the power
to say when. and We are confident II
will say how.

A great political conflict is shaking

the men and women of the District Of

Not at all. An election such as this

Milk Breads

Much of the white bread made
today in commercial bakeries con-
tains added milk solids in the form
of powdered or evaporated milk,
which contribute greatly to the
nutritive value of white bread. Such
breads are known to the trade as
milk breads"
Realizing that variety is the
spice of life" at the table as we'll.
as elsewhere, we should make it a
rule to supplement our diet with
vegetables, fruit, and milk. While
it is pleasant and desirable to OBJ
tain these fresh from the garden,
orchard and dairy-whenever it is
possible to do so, it is by no means
necessary that this be done-for
modern methods of canning and
preserving are bringing many of
these to our table today in appeti7-
ing and nutritious forms. Canned
tomatoes. for example, are being
used with success as a substitute
for orange juice, and the research
work of DR.. Walter H. Eddy and
DR.. (. H. Holman has shown that
other fruits and vegetables may be
canned by modern methods and re-
tain much of the original vitamin
potency.

POOL PRODUCES
TELEPHOTOCRAPH
DESCRIBES "WIRE PICTURES"
AS THE PRODUCT of 1000
INVENTORS

An apparatus that was invented
by four thousand men is the de-
scription given by Joseph Kaye in
a recent issue of the New Age,
referring to the perfection of the
telephotograph which transmits
pictures by wire.
The apparatus used by the Bell
System for the transmission of
pictures by wire was created by
engineers of the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph company,
working in conjunction with en-
gineers of the Bell Telephone La
%boratories. The invention is term
ed by Mr.. Kaye as a pooling of
many mems brains, as many, in
fact, as four thousand, who devot-
ed their initiative and their energy
each n to do the particular task
assigned to him.
1T is the application of business
organization to creative work"
continued Mr.. Kaye. ut is the APP
plication of the system that pro
duces Il great and smOoth-run-
ming industries to the formerly
one-man inspired work of the in
ventor. | think it is one of the
most extraordinary manifestations
Of this age. The nearest approach
to it that we have in history is the
of Alexandra Dumas, the
French novelist, who used to as
sign an idea for a new historical
novel to a staff of writer's in his
employ for development and writ
ing, %reserving for himself the job
of supervising and polishing the
product in its finished stage. That
system earned Dumas a good deal
of disapproyal, but he was only a
pioneer. The Bell Telephone Lab
.oratories has used the same idea
and one who has examined its
usefulness and service to science
and progress must admit it."
In the old days, inventors were
lone workers. They carried on
heir experiments secretly and
without aid. This method has
leen superseded in the Bell Lab
1ratories by what can be termed
group method where the prob

poor foods-her milk was less rich
in these necessary food factors. AS
a result of these and other studies,
dairy men are feeding much more
intelligently than in former years.
Dried Milk
Certain of the vitamins are par
tally or totally destroyed by heat,
depending on the conditions of
treatment. If a milk is rich in
vitamins, due TO proper feeding,
considerable destruction may occur
and the milk still remain a valu-
| able source of vitamin supply. If
a vitamin-poor milk is carelessly
treated, the vitamin supply may be
too low in the marketed product.
Our studies showed that milk
may be pasteurized at l45 degrees
for 80 minutes in the absence OF
air and that little, if any, vitamin
destruction occurred. This was not
true when air was admitted. Manu-
facturers of dried milk or milk
powder have studied these prob
lens, with the result that by care
full control, much of the original
vitamin content of the milk can be
preserved.
The importance of this cannot be
over-emphasized, for in addition to
its widespread household uses in
soups, vegetables and desserts, and
in baby formulas, it furnishes a
source of milk for travellers, in
fants in the tropics, and for people
in all places where safe fresh milk
is not available. According to DIR.
Milton ]. Rosenau: Milk is the
most difficult of all our standard
articles of diet to obtain and handle
in a safe and satisfactory manner.
1t requires scrupulous care from
pasture to pail, and from pail to
palate. 1t is the most difficult of
all our foods to gather, handle,
transport, and deliver in a fresh, |
clean, safe and satisfactory man
ner. Furthermore, milk decom-
poses more quickly than any other
food. 1t spoils even more quickly
than fresh fruit and berries"
l should not leave the impression
however that milk is always a rich
source of vitamins. Even fresh
milk from a good source often may
be supplemented to advantage with
orange juice, cod liver oil and sim
liar vitamin-rich foods, a practice
recommended by many physicians.
Evaporated Milk
Another way of preserving milk
for use, where fresh milk is not
easily obtained, is to evaporate it
or condense it. This process re-
moves a portion of the water leav-
ng the original proteins, fats,
and salts in a more concen-
rated form. Our studies of the
content of evaporatedi
have. led US to believe that I
