Editorial Comment
Educating the East
(St. Paul Dispatch)

1t may be unreasonable to expect any great
interest in the farm question, much less under
standing OF it's nature, in the busy commercial
centers of the East when the prevailing notion
IS that St. Paul and Milwaukee are the Twin
Cities Of Minnesota, that Seattle is a trolley
jump from Minneapolis and that Duluth is
something like Wisconsin. The delusion has
been cherished, however, that at least among
the leaders of public life who dominate bust
ness and intellectual spheres of the East, some
attention had been given the agricultural issue
during its seven years before Congress.
Some signs of awakening there have been, but
the conviction grows that in the centers of oppo-
sition to farm legislation the issue exists only
as some wild and curious vagary which Presi-
dent Coolidge can be counted on to suppress.
Vice President Dawes has just indicated to a
delegation from Minnesota at the Capitol one
line OF action for farm legislation which has
been neglected. This is the education of the
East to the needs of farm relief and the objects
of the McNary- Haugen bill.
There is blind sectionalism and prejudice in
much of the opposition that has come out of
the East But far more serious j.; the indiffer-
ence and ignorance among the vast majority
in those centers, who have no correct knowledge
OF what the present movement means or seeks
and who would recognize the business of the
cause if it were only presented and under
stood.
Vice President. Dawes has been proving him
self one of the farmers most valuable friends
and valiant champions. His influence and guild
ance at Washington have been priceless in the
triumphant course of the McNary- Haugen bill
through two sessions of Congress. No one in
American public life is more fitted to bridge
the gap between the Republicans of the West
and those of the East. He has sympathetic
appreciation Of Western ideas and he speaks
with authority to the business chiefs of the
East. The time to awaken the Republicans of
the East to realization of mid Western condi-
tions is now and not next November when the
votes have been counted. If Mr.. Dawes could
be persuaded to lend his voice, danger that
party harmony may be disrupted at the national
would be much reduced.

in line and form. The color schemes
have a relaxing monotone, never ris-
ing above pastel shades and running
largely to restful and cool shades
that remind one of straw or painted
burlap. The decorations, if and

scheme Of design. Mirrors are sim

rest.
The danger, so artists tell me,
lies in the notion that the modern
istic ideas can be easily duplicated;
that anyone can pattern them. They
point out that the best French and
Austrian artists have stamped their
names to the various designs.

LETTER %M

Tor Charles Evans Hughes. who was
not quite so impressive owing to his
1916 defeat. Hughes, realizing that
he was weak in the west and that
he apparently was in line for q Job
as mere hitching post, ducked out.
And then there just wasn't anybody
to the east of Senator Frank Willis
in Ohio. The old rule that "you
can't beat somebody with nobody"
worked inexorably.
Except for Coolidge, New Eng
land was barren Of presidential
possibilities. None of her senator's
would do; Governor Fuller of Mass
achusetts was out because of the
Sacco- Vanzetti case and the fact
that it wasn't smart politics to
nominate two Massachusetts COVER
nors in succession.
All the leading New York Re-
publicans but Hughes had been
beaten by AL Smith or come other
Democrat and none had shown an
ability to hold his own state. No
Pennsylvania was available for var
ious reasons, especially owing to the
unsavory reputation of the states
politics.
It was a very sad situation in
deed, and while the bosses were
wringing their hands Hoover
walked in and grabbed up a lot Of
delegates.
AL Smith is the one big excep-
ton to the fact that the outstanding
political personalities Of this nation
come from the west. Coolidge, Of
course, became president by acct
dent. The parties just naturally
don't pick their candidates from
New England.
Thus Smith is the only real east
ern candidate. Otherwise the ten
northeasternmost states are unrep-
resented in the face of Hoover of
California, Lowder and Dawes of
Illinois, Curtis Of Kansas, Watson
of Indiana, Reed of Missouri, Walsh
of Montana and Democratic favorite
sons from the south.
In 1924, Of Is Democratic can
didates voted for at the conven-
ton only Smith and Governor Sell
ger of New Jersey were from the
northeast, as compared with nine
out of % in 1920, five of Is in
1912 and eight of Is in 1904.

SUBSTITUTES FOR FRESH VEG.
ETABLES
If you have been following my
articles, you are aware that / recon-
mend q large proportion of non
starchy vegetables for properly
balancing the menus. This is not
only for the sake Of pleasing the
palate by adding to the variety of
foods used, but is also for the pur-
pose Of adding very important
vitamins and alkaline producing
elements.
The foods that contain more al
kaline elements than any other
foods are in this order: Spinach,
cucumbers. celery, chard, and let
tuce. Spinach being the most val
liable of these, the richest of all
foods, you can see one reason why
l advise its use particularly. If
possible, one Of these vegetables at
least should be used with the other
non-starchy vegetables at either the
protein or starch meals.
In many parts Of the world, it is
practically impossible to secure
fresh vegetables at any time, or at
least at certain seasons, so am
suggesting either indoor Cultivation

ner. and are handled commercially
in many markets.
The process of sprouting is sim.
liar with all types of these seeds.
They should be soaked. in water for
twenty-four hours and then trans
ferred to large can with a perfor-
ated bottom suitable for drainage.
They should then be covered with
moist sacking which is sprinkled
with water three or four times
daily until the seeds are sufficiently
sprouted. The container should be
stored in room of moderate tenn
perature. The length Of time re-
CURED varies with the warmth, but
three or four days are usually re-
quired. They are sufficiently ma
tured when the sprouts are half an
inch to an inch in length.
For table preparation, they should
be thoroughly washed and placed in
slightly sailed boiling water and
cooked for about twenty minutes.
You will find these vegetables will
furnish q pleasing and wholesome
addition to your menus.
Even the peas and wheat, which
ordinarily contain large amounts of
starch, may be classified as non
starchy vegetables after this ger

Washington, May 3O.-The west
which has Dragged so these last
few years about her supremacy over
the east in football, also is able to
talk about the deccadence of eastern
politicians.
It is to that, primarily, that Her.
bert Hoover owes his excellent
chance of being nominated for pres
ident. Mr.. Hoover, of course, was
born in Iowa and made his home in
California.
The leading eastern politicians
who ought to be dominating the
party, or at least the successors
Of those politicians who always
have dominated it and the repre-
sentatives Of the influences which
are the party's backbone, have
failed rather miserably this year in
the attempt.
One refers, of course, to such
gents as National Chairman Will
liam NJ. Butler of Massachusetts
Vice Chairman Charlie Hilles of
New York and Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon Of Pennsylvania.
Apparently they haven't the
strength or cunning of the old fell
lows like Penrose, Quay and MUIR
ray Crane. None of them wanted
Hoover for the party candidate,
though Mellon at least now realizes
that they may have to take him.
But at that they could have
stopped Hoover if there hadn't
been such a frightful dearth Of
stopping material in the eastern
states. It was their inability to
find a man who could hold New
York, Pennsylvania and Massa-
chusetts which really allowed Hoov-
er to slip into his commanding lead.
The time-honored trick, of course,
would have been to let an eastern
candidate corral the eastern dele
gates, let Lowden round up the
middle west and Hoover the Pa
cific coast and whatever else he
could find en- route. If this scheme
had worked Hoover could have been
held to some 800 delegates, the con-
vention would have deadlocked and
the bosses could have had their own
man, who would have been none 9TH

Coolidge refused to stoop to
such trickery. Then they hurrahed
