Mrs. Jacob Baur losses
Challenge at Nellie
TayIoe Ross.

By United Pres
WASHINGTON. May a.-Mrs.
Nellie Tayloe Ross, vice-chairman
Of the Democratic national commit
tee, was accused Of "miSstatements
and Misrepresentation" in a state
ment issued Thursday night by the
Republican national committee over
the name of Mrs Jacob Baur, Re
publican national conmitteewoman
for Illinois.
Mrs. Baur challenged a statement
Of Mrs Ross, made this week in a
speech at Lima, o., that 1904 in
diviGuals, according to government
records. reported incomes averaging
in excess Of 100000 a year"
She cited a report of the commits
sioner Of internal revenue to show
that 504 persons reported incomes
of million or over-not two mil
lions"
Observers we're predicting today
that the Baur-Ross episode might
rival in the female contingent the
widely publicized -Shouse en-
counter, when Chairman Fess of
the Republican national committee
accused Executive Chairman Shouse
OF the Democratic committee of
telling "a deliberate falsehood."
In the Fess- Shouse case it de-
veloped that Shouse had been mis-
quoted in press reports Of his
speech. In the case of Mrs. Ross
and Mrs. Baur, it was pointed out
that Mrs. Baur seemed to be dis
proving q statement which Mrs.
Ross did not make.
It was noted that, while Mrs.
Baur correctly quoted Mrs. Ross
speech, her Encouragement used
the same figures in a somewhat
different way.
Mrs. Ross said incomes of 504 in
dividuals averaged" in excess of
S2,000,000. Mrs. Baur, on the other
hand, showed that the incomes of
these same 504 fortunates were in
excess of one million dollars each,
but she did not deal with averages.
Friends of Mrs. Ross said it would
be quite possible for 504 persons to
have incomes each in excess of a
million, and have them average
more than 100000 each.

MYTH much whispering and

possible successor to H. Nathan

Swain frankly is disguised. Be-

was particularly onerous after the
last campaign.
At one time Swain was con-

applications, and he complained
that he had not time to attend to
his own law practice.
Among possible successors being
mentioned are E. Kirk Mckinney,
city chairman, who managed the
1929 city campaign successfully and
now is president of the city board
Of works, and j. Leroy Reach, for

Mckinney, incidentally, also is

In the clothing and textile in

"In printing, unemployment
increased again and reached a

one pound of soy beans there Is
as much nourishment as IN two
pounds of beef. .
To be more accurate, one pound
of soy beans contains the equiva-
lent Of two pounds Of the pro-
teins and fats in beef.
This was made known by DR..
A. A, Hovrath, biochemist, at the
current session of the American
Chemical Sociey. ,
DR.. Hovrath points out that
soy bean protein is the main in
gredient in a well known table
sauce. Soy beans are eaten largely
by certain peoples Of the Far
East, particularly the Chinese

The prOteinS Of these beans, &C.

The flair for wide lace flounces Is
becoming increasingly insistent, for
which we should rejoice since they
bring new grace and an air OF the
'sweefly feminine" into the realm of
party frocks which is most fascinat-
ing. Dinner frOcks of chiffon with
deep lace rufles are ever so smart,
and when the lace is black the effect
is quite Spanish.
The vogue for lace combined with
fabric promises repetition In spring

or chiffon are so manipulated that
with the lace Jacket on, the ensemble
gives the Impression OF being all Of

with the bolero or coatee of lace re-

dainty fabric which blends with the
