WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-New gas
masks developed by the chemical
warfare service are so much more
comfortable than those worn by SOL
diers in the A. E. F. that Senator
Willard Tydings of Maryland, HIM
self a veteran, has asked the senate
to amend the war department. ap-
preparation bill to provide for the
manufacture of $4,000 of these next
year, instead Of 10000 as now
planned.
The senate has passed this
amendment to the bill, but it may
be stricken out in conference.
The soldier wearing a World war
gas mask found his mobility and
usefulness decreased just about 60
per cent, Senator Tydings stated.
His nose was clipped together so
that he would have to breathe
through his mouth instead of. his
nostrils, he had an instrument in
his mouth over his tongue, and, in
order to see, had to look through
goggles.

INDUSTRY LIFTS
RUSSIAN JEWS
FROM DEPTHS
Tragic Problem of Million
People Is Solved With
Need of Labor.
BY EUGENE LYONS
United Press STAFF Correspondent

MOSCOW, Feb. 3.-The economic
problem of the Jews of Russia, some
years ago one of the most tragic
depths on the Soviet landscape,
automatically has been solved with
the headlong rise Of industry here.
Two years ago, nearly a million
Jews in the former pale" concen-
trated in ugly muddy towns and
villages, were on the very fringe Of
starvation.
Colonization projects were sup
ported by Soviet authorities, charity
was sent from the United States
these were the only hopes in the
misery.
Economic Problem Solved
Now adult members of that
million are earning regular wages on
construction jobs and in new Soviet
factories.
The keen national demand for
labor power acted to solve the jew
ish problem, at least in it's essential
economic aspect.
While the Jews politically were
among the principal beneficiaries of
the revolution, obtaining, at last,
equality with the R u a n S,
economically they we're the greatest
sufferers.
Majority of them were small
traders, whose livelihood was taken
from them by the same revolution
which gave them political and So
cial equality.
Having been barred from farm
ing by the czarist laws, and for
the most part kept out of indus
try, trade had been their chief and
almost sole calling.
Ills Cured by Time
The Bolshevik revolution turned
them into a huge pauper class.
Worse than that, as former business.
men, they we're a bourgeois ele-
ment."
In recent years an exception was
made Of Jews in this respect, in
recognition of the fact that they
were bourgeois" through force Of
czarist persecution rather than free
will.
Time, which in the Soviet Union
moves faster than elsewhere in the
world, has cured most Of it's ills. In
fact, a considerable number OF
Jewish settlers in the agricultural
colonies established, with the aid
Of American money, now are aban-
doning the colonies for jobs in fac
tories.

way through the dough or batter when
heat is applied produces the desired
lightness of texture. If just the right
amount of soda is applied to sour
milk enough carbon dioxide $ given

Our experience is that it is better
to use the soda sparingly, and to use
some baking powder even with sour
milk-so as to avoid any excessive
soda flavor. Because the amount of
acid in sour milk varies it is hard to
give precisely the requisite proper
ton. A quarter of a teaspoonful of
soda is enough If little baking pow
der is used with the flour in making
cakes, cookies, etc. Otherwise level
half teaspoonful of soda to a cup of
thoroughly sOured milk is the rule. If
the sour milk is very creamy less but

the recipe. Then little more of the
sour milk may be needed in order to
get enough liquid.
Don't be afraid TO use sour milk
