FOOD PROBLEMS

BY SALLY MONROE.

Beef, veal or lamb may be made
into a vegetable stew, and the more
vegetables used the less expensive the
stew. Less expensive pieces of meat
provided they are fresh-may be used.
They should be cut into pinch pieces.
Onions, carrots, celery, peas, string
beans, turnips and other vegetables may
be used, providing the flavors are liked.
The vegetables should be cooked to-
gether apart from the meat. The meat
needs much longer cooking and should
be cooked separately The pieces should
be first Drowned we'll in drippings, suet
or butter, in which a little chopped
onion has been fried, and then put on
to cook in boiling water and allowed to
simmer gently for two or three hours.
There should be enough water to cover,
but no more. Meantime the water in
which the vegetables have been cooked
should be allowed TO simmer down, and
this may be added to the meat stock
and thickened as desired. Meat and
vegetables should be mixed before
serving.

Eighty Six Cases
 Of Smallpox Listed
First Outbreak Since l929-State Dept of Health
 Urges Prompt Vaccination as Best Remedy

Hartford, Dec 24-After two and one-half years without smallpox in Connecticut, the disease is again present. Bridgeport, Fairfield, Trumbull, stratford, Milford and Shelton have reported a total of SC cases during the past three weeks. These are the first cases of smallpox reported in Connecticut since May. 1929.
 The control of smallpox is very simple matter. Even before Past eur had demonstrated the germ cause of the disease, an English man, Edward Jenner had devel- oped method of protecting people against smallpox by vaccination. Jenner's book was published just at the close of the 18th century and Dr Warehouse brought the prac- tice of the vaccination to Boston a year or two later. The fact that the New England states are rela- lively free from smallpox Is due to the more general practice of vac- cination in New England than in some other sections of the coun- try.
 The outbreak of smallpox in Connecticut during the past 10 years illustrate the value of vaccin- alton. In 1922 Q total of 447 cases of smallpox were reported in Con- necticut, most of which were not well protected by vaccination. The 1000 cases reported in 1924 were chiefly from New Britain and Dan ielson, two communities which, prior to that time. had not been

SENATOR BORAH DAMPENS ARDOR
 OF CHRISTMAS
His Proposal for 10 Per Cent Cut of All Govt Salaries Doesn't Fit Stockings of Congress- men
BY RAYMOND CHAPTER Limited Press Stan Correspondent

Washington, Dec 24-(UP)-- Senator Borah threw cinders un- der Santa's sleigh enroute to Washington by his proposal for q 10 per cent cut in all government salaries.
 The capital, almost entirely de- pendent on the government pay roll, naturally does not welcome any such action. But 1t Is not real ly concerned.
 The fact that Borah would in- clude senators and congressman in the pay cut was taken to guaran- tee that congress would do noth- ing about the matter. Tn fact, 1t Is regarded by some as merely Bor- ah's annual Christmas greeting, for 1t has been his custom to add dash of bitters to the capitals Christmas cheer.
 Last year he called on President Hoover to summon the newly elected congress into extra session in the spring.
 On Christmas eve the year be- fore he issued q statement declar- ing that prohibition could never be enforced with the existing per- sonnel from top to bottom" in charge.
 During the Christmas holidays of 1928 Borah was again on his favorite topic of an extra session, publicly reminding MT Hoover that as the president-elect he was pledged to call congress as soon as he took office.
 In 1928 Borah issued a Christi mas eve statement criticizing the landing of marines in Nicaragua.
 These Christmas statements al. ways carried stinger that spoiled the holidays for somebody.
 Borah puts in these blows at Christmas time because congress Is not in session and he has a clear held. None since Roosevelt has displayed Borah's shrewdness in seizing the right time to hurl the harpoon.
 As to pay cuts. Borah has the right to bring this subject up if anyone does. In 1925 congress raised its own pay from $7,500 to s10,O0O a year. Borah refused to take his increase on tho ground that he had been elected to q ST. 500 job.
 When he was reelected in 1890, he felt that he then was entitled to accept the increase, and when he drew his first pay in his new term. April 6, 1881, he accepted 1t at the $10,000 rate.
 The idea of q 10 per cent wage cut, however, Is gaining some sup port in congress. The plan Is un- derstood to be behind democrats recently announced intention of cutting S300,000,00 more from the federal budget as recommended by President Hoover. A resolution proposing to express the sense of the senate in that regard has been introduced by Senator Harrison, democrat, Miss. It will be called up soon after the holidays.
 Rep Will Wood, republican, Ind, previously was the only outstand- ing advocate of such drastic meas ure, President Hoover has been opposed to the suggestion.

well protected by vaccination. Most of the ITO cases reported in 1928 belonged to the outbreak radiating from Middletown where, prior to that time, the population had not been vaccinated. Others during this year were reported from Bris- tol and Unionville among persons who had not been vaccinated.
 The experience of Connecticut with three distinct outbreaks of smallpox in 1929 further demon- strates the protective value of vac- cinatlon. Smallpox was brought to Waterbury where 1t was not recog- nized for some time. Only three cases developed. These were among persons not protected by vaccina- ton. Associates with these persons who were protected either by vac- cination or a previous attack of smallpox did not become infected. Waterbury requires vaccination of school children, and therefore en- joys the protection afforded by this procedure.
 An outbreak comprising nine cases accurred in North Haven and New Haven where the disease had smoldered along for three or four months before the first eases were recognized. In spite of this long do. lay in discovering the cases. only i nine contracted the disease and all of these cases were persons who had never been vaccinated. Persons in the same families who were protected by vaccination went on with their business as usual with out contracting smallpox or carry- ing the disease to others.
 In contrast to these two out- breaks, with a very limited num- Der of cases in each, is the out break which started near Norwich in 1929 extended to number Of other towns including Bridgeport, Griswold, Jewett City, Groton, Lis:. bon, New London, Sprague ana Stonington, and totaled 40 cases. Tn that instance delay in recogniz- ing the disease permitted 1t to spread among people not SO well protected by vaccination as the pop ulations of Waterbury and New Haven. Thus. from past experience 1t would appear that control of the smallpox outbreak now radiating from Bridgeport depends very largely upon the prompt and com plete vaccination of the people In towns where the disease exists
