Lump sugar in tints and flavors of lemon, orange or lime have found a place on milady's table. Now she may soon add to that a blue lump favored, perhaps, as the grape or loganberry.
 Ultra modern infants may now have taffy with the blue tint Of the ocean. true color candy flags for Independence Day, and blue pop from clear glass bottles. The fond mother need have no fear as the division chemists assure her the new color is harmless.
 Before a dye is approved oy the division it must pass rigid, tests to prove that it contains nothing harmful. Then, as further test, 1t is fed in large quantities tn guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, rats and mice. Sometimes even fish are placed in solution of the dye.

TABLE FRIGHTENED

Harmless New Dyes Threaten
 Color Orgy in Dining Room

Washington, Oct. IS. UP).- Fashionable women have long in sisted on harmony in the color scheme Of their homes, cars and frocks, and now government chem ists have made possible a further step in this direction.
 Brilliant blue pancakes and bis cults may soon grace the breakfast tables of rooms in which blue is the predominating color if society takes up the suggestion of the l Ford and lnsecticide Divison of the Agriculture Department for colored foods.
 Coloring of "oods is now made generally possible through a new dye which has just been found harmless to health and which is 1 designated officially as brilliant blue r. C. F. The new dye will re- l place a present blue dye used by candy and beverage manufacturers which have been found rather un- satisfactory. They are fugitive and gradually fade.
 Everyone finds more zest in foods which are pleasing to the eye,' the division said in describ- ing it's latest find. Nature has recognized the fact and not only lavishly colors many foods but supplies vegetable dyes In abun- dance. Where nature has slighted a color the scientist is called upon to fill in the deficiency so that the highest esthctic demands ol the pubic may be met"
 Recognizing the attraction O. color, the division permits manu facturers to color their foods, bu only with pure, harmless colors The act further provides that nc color be used to cover defects O. deficiencies in poor foods.

PARLIAMENT OPENS;
LABOR CHALLENGED
Macdonald Party Optimistic
in Face of Crucial Test
of Strength.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, october 29.-Parliament
reassembled today for what is expected
to be one Of the most important and
busy sessions Of recent years.
A Labor ministry, in control for the
second time in British history, took
seats with the warning of opposition
papers editorials thrust at them.
That warning was, substantially, that
the virtual truce in party politics, which
marked the initial weeks Of the par
liamentary session three months ago, is
over, and that the Labor government
must now prepare to defend its policies.
At converting Labor's situation I'M
doubtedly was prtcarious enough, the
government polling but 291 members in
the Commons, against 260 Conserva-
tives and 81 Liberals-enough short OF
a majority that a LIBERAL Conservative
coalition may at any time vote no con-
fidence and bring about its resignation
Points Of Optimism.
Labor's leaders felt they had room for
optimism in various developments OF
the three months Parliament has been
in recess, principal among these the
popularity of Premier Macdonald's
moves toward betterment Of American
relations, and the promise of David
Lloyd George, Liberal leader, that the
Liberals would give Labor chance to
work out a constructive program.
Inasmuch as the opening Of the leg
islative body was mere reconvening
Of a former session, after recess there
was no speech from the throne, or other
formal opening ceremony. The premier.
Ramsay Macdonald, was not present
being en- route home after his American
visit. He will arrive in Liverpool prob
ably Friday.
Policies Take Shape.
On the parliamentary program for
the next few weeks is the taking up OF
work, where left OF at recess In July,
with the differences that Labor policies
half formulated then have been shaped
in detail during the trimester recess
by the new ministry.
The first big legislative event proba-
bly, will take place Thursday, when the
second reading Of the pensions bill,
sponsored by Arthur Greenwood, min
lister Of health, will be moved.

Will Rogers
Says:

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, October 20.
Our attention in the last few days
has been focused on juries, and from
what we read about 1t the personal
opinion Of the jurymen after listen
ing to all the testimony don't seem
to mean much. It's how strong
minded and persuasive some other
jurymen are.
Look at the Fall case first ballot,
seven for acquittal, two undecided
and only three for conviction. Yet
In the end the three switched all the
others. It wasn't the evidence, for
they had heard 1t all before they
took the first ballot, so 1t looks like
lot of jurymen ought to be lawyers,
for they are evidently more convinc-
ing than the lawyers.
