STATE COLLEGE, Pa. November
24-There are 400 new-style scientific
turkeys at Pennsylvania State College,
harbingers of less expensive meals and
shorter hours of cooking,
All Of them were raised in pens,
breaking the century-old American Gus
tom requiring turkey to range the
open fields
The results of this Penn State ex-
pertinent, made public today. promise
to take the gamble out Of turkey rails
ing, which has caused scarcity Of birds
and high prices for more than decade.
Any one with back yard may raise
turkeys safely by keeping Them in a
pen from chickhood to Thanksgiving
These confined turkeys cook faster
than the range fowl. A 20-pound Penn
sylvsnia State turkey COOKS in about
two and one-half hours. The ordinary
time for this weight runs from four to
five hours.

wrote somthing which could at any mo-
ment have been said in the Reichstag
without consequences. The Democratic
press is appalled,.
This condemnation Of literary trea-
son" is aimed not to prevent but to
protect abuse by the German military.
The sentence seems to demonstrate that
the practical influence of the German
army-always large from the point of
view of democracy-now has become
overweening.
1t is of interest to contrast two SEN
fences. When Adolf Hitler in 1923
sought to overthrow the republic by
force of arms, he was sentenced to a
fortress. for few years. where he was
trated like gentleman and speedily
pardoned. Herr Ossietzy and Herr
Kreiser, who merely revealed the sup
posed breaches of solemn treaties by
the German government, are con-
demned to Is months in prison among
common criminals.

PEN-RAISED TURKEYS FOUND
HARDER AND EASIER TO COOK
Penn State Experiments Promise to Take
Gamble Out of Fowl Breeding by
Making Range Methods Obsolete

The methods Of pen raising we're de-
veloped by H c. Knandel, professor of
poultry husbandry His experiments
cover several years, during which 900
pen turkeys have been raised and eaten.
In 1890 the United States produced
10,750,090 turkeys, but in 1920 tie out
put had dropped to 3,627,000, Turkeys
became scarce and high priced
The falling off, Prof. Knandel says,
was due to parasitic diseases which the
birds picked up in the open fields. So
high was the mortality that many farm
ers stopped raising turkeys
by raising them in pens Prof. Khan
del protected his turkeys effectively
from the field diseases. They cost
about 2 cents more a pound to raise
in confinement. but this extra expense
is more than compensated for by the
larger number of turkeys that live to
market age in the pens.
Confinement facilitates certain scien-
tif1c studies. These show that the
biggest and earliest eggs in the Spring
produce the largest Fall turkeys

MANS TRIAL BARES
GERMAN AIR FORCE
Rumor of Subsidies Banned
by Versailles Pact Seem j..
Confirmed by Court.
BY EDGAR ANsEL MowRER.

By Gable to The Star.
BERLIN, Germany, November "a
BY the treaty Of Versailles, part 5, sec
ton 3, article 1913, "the armed forces
of Germany must not include any mil
itary or naval air forces" This
obviously prohibits even subsidies given
to so-called civil aviation by military
or naval authorities, or for military
or naval purposes.
That a great supposition exists that
Germany has been consistently break
ing this article of the treaty has long
been known. Now 1t seems to be con-
f1rmed.
The publisher of the weekly Berlin
Weltbuehne, pacifist, Carl Won Os-
Sietzky, was sentenced yesterday by
the Supreme Court at Leipzig to IL
months imprisonment for an article
published in his magazine and written
by Walter Kreiser who received the
same sentence.
Reveals Airline Subsidies.
In this article, which the court orders
to be obliterated, the writer stated in
a sarcastic tone that the German min
istry of defense was Systematically sub
Severa and the Albatros. The latter,
it is stated, was formerly called division
M, meaning military.
Furthermore, these companies, which
virtually belong one to the Germany
navy and one to the army, own about
80 airplanes which are steadily flying,
often abroad" meaning Soviet Russia.
After more than 80 months Herr
OSsietzky and Herr Kreiser were
brought before the Supreme Court, tried
and condemned for treason on the basis
of fantastic law whereby the German
government seeks to prevent Germans
from protesting against its breaches of
treaty obligations. just how, under
these circumstances, Germany expects
to come to the Disarmament Conference
and ask France to diSarm is dark.

Democratic circles, whose influence Is
steadily diminishing consider the de-

CHICAGO, November "a. 49, J. NJ
Harding of Omaha, president of the
American Association Of Creamery But
ter Manufacturers, said yesterday that
depression had ended in the creamery
butter business. He said this was one
of the first major industries to an
nounce a turn, and that production and
consumer demand for 1881 were the
largest in history.
THE first agricultural commodity TO
recover during the defation of 1921
was creamery butter" said Harding,
and now history is repeating itself.
This years record-breaking production
will reach a total of 1,600,000000
pounds, but creamery butter in storage
is less now than in any previous year."
