BANKER REFUSES
MORATORIUM

After the crowd gathered they
appointed a committee that would
go and talk to the banker, who
was sitting in a car with the
clerk and auctioneer, to demand
of him that he declare a mora
forum on the mortgage of Mo-
bel's property. He refused to do
so, saying that he would sell the
property to satisfy his "poor
creditors" Immediately someone
in the crowd, that had gathered
around the auto of the bankers,
! said "what about the poor farm
/ ers 2" which won a burst of APP
plause.
The father of John Nobel said
he would pay his sons mortgage
if the defunct bank of Chill would
give him his money that he had
in the bank. The banker said he
couldn't do that.
FARMERS GUST BANKER
The farmers gave the banker to
understand that if he went ahead
with the sale they would not bid
on a single article The banker
then called the sale off, and got
out Of the yard as fast as he
could.
The farmers then held a mass
meeting on this farm, which was
addressed by Walter Harju, who
called upon the farmers to pre-
vent all future sales.
They decided at this meeting
! that they would all go to Neills-
vile, the county seat, the follow
ing Monday morning, to protest
against foreclosures and ,evictions
That night the sheriff came
out and got two Of the cows from
: the Nobel farm.

stimulated a study of methods of
cooking, for it seems to be true
that where food prejudices exist,
vegetables top the list and certain
methods of cooking greatly i'm
prove their palatability.
Try Using Oven For Vegetables
Plain boiled egetables-where
large amount of water is use-lack
flavor. Two pans of carrots-the
one boiled in pan with much
water, the other cooked in the
oven with Il to y cup of water in
a utensil with a close fitting lid
will when seasoned with the same
amount OF butter and salt, taste
as differently as two diverse foods.
Practically any vegetable may be
cooked in this placing in
a closely covered utensil with
small amount of water in the au-
tomatically controlled modern gas
oven set at $50 degrees F.. for 40
minutes.
Unusual SeasOnings
Zuccinni takes on a delightful
flavor When seasoned with a dash
of poultry seasoning. A little nut
meg in string beans or summer
squash gives an interesting taste to
otherwise common vegetables. At
ter parsnips have been cooked ten
der try placing them in a buttered
baking dish sprinkled with 8 table
spoons sugar, dash of nutmeg and
strips Of bacon over all. Bake
10 minutes in $50 degrees F. oven
or until bacon is crisp.
Equal parts of chopped cooked
beets and horseradish makes
tasty relish to serve with roast of
meat and this relish so often can
be an economical means for u.s.
ing the last bit of leftover beets.

Walters and Mattresses Union, tes-
tilted yesterday that they were COM

jobs, the money being divided be-
tween the business agents of the

Julius Malich, a restaurant keeper
at Grand and Suffolk SITS, and one

Owners Association. The case of
Malich was adjourned to Jan. 20.
The arrest Of Malich came as a
result of the fight the militant rank
and file group in the union has been
conducting against the racketeering
officials. The situation in the union
led to the shooting of the two bust
ness agents, Jack Lasher and Norris
Turkel, at a meeting last week bv

who had been refused a job unless
he came across with the graft. The
rank and file have elected a COM

determined struggle to Dust the rack

MEN AND JOBS" OPENING SUN
DAY AT THE CAMEO, PRESENTS
NEW IDEA IN SOVIET FILMS

A. Macharet, newcomer among the
Soviet motion picture directors,
claims he has been at work thirty
years in the creation of his first pic
ture, Men and Jobs" He traces his
interest in dramatic art to a minor
role he played in an amateur school
theatrical at the age of five. Since
then, through years in a high school
to please his parents, through war,
revolution and civil war, longing
for the theatre has been uppermost
in Macharet's mind.
Men and Jobs" which opens Sun
day at the Cameo Theatre, dealing
with the relations of an American
engineer to the Russian workers I'M
der him, is said to embody a new
approach both in sound and visual
imagery. Upon its release in Mos
cow, Men and Jobs" precipitated a
violent conflict in Moscow art Sircles.
Macharet claims that the styled
cinema technique so widely used in
Soviet studios is fast becoming a
cliche, particularly the photography
of machines as self-sufficient images.
He holds his work to be fresh de-
parture in film language, making
men rather than things the core of
his pictures.
