Similarly tight-lipped were his asso-
ciates in high government circles. They
would discuss neither his plans for the
talks with President Roosevelt nor his
itinerary.
Accompanying him were c. Oumanski.

before its scheduled departure.
Officials have acted mysteriously since
Litvinoff first was designated to repre-

ferences. Censors took the cue last
night when they refused to pass a dis
patch announcing the departure.

Son and Daughter Present.

The commissar's son and daughter
were on the platform when the train
pulled out.
The mystery surrounding his de-
parture was in sharp contrast with the
farewell given large Soviet delegation
three days ago as it left for Turkey to
participate in that nations anniversary
celebration. Hundreds were at the sta
ton then.
Litvinoff cannot reach Hamburg in
time to board the liner Manhattan to-
day unless the boat is held for him.
Subsequent sailings will be those of
the Bremen on october 81. the President
Roosevelt on November 1. and the Beren-
garia from Cherbourg on November 4.

with a brand of romance that lasted
them through life.
Doubtless much Of the attraction
between them was because they had
so much in common. Both were ma
tives of the Buckeye State, both were
strong church people, both patriotic
to marked degree, both devoted to
cultured pursuits, country life, out
door activities, sports, books and mu-
sic. Each respected and admired the
other above all other people and their
children revered and adored them and
considered them without peers in ap-
pearance and achievement.
when young 'Rddy' Hayes had fin
ished with the schools of Delaware
his uncle sent him to a school in Con-
necticut.
about this time Mrs. Hayes had
become acquainted with DR.. and Mrs.
Webb and as the two ladies were both
devoted adherents of the cause of
temperance they became close friends.
Mrs. Hayes very quickly formed such
high opinion of little Lucy Webb,
then sixteen that she decided of all
the girls she knew, Lucy was of the
highest character, the sweetest dis
position and altogether the ideal wife
for her own cherished only son. This
was the highest compliment Mrs
Hayes or any mother could pay to the
daughter of her friend and she came
to this decision long before either
'Ruddy' or Lucy Webb were aware of
her matchmaking plans. She never
changed her opinion nor deviated
from her first choice of a daughter
in-law.
1.-THE first time Rutherford Hayes
saw Lucy Webb was during one of his
visits to his home in Delaware, when
his mother prevailed upon him to &C
company her to temperance meet
ing. He was then twenty-five years
old, struggling to establish himself
as lawyer in Cincinnati. She was a
sixteen year old student. He did not
interest the young lady at all, for she
forgot all about him, and he was not
attracted to her as he described her
as bright sunny haired little school
girl too young to fall in love- He did
not see her again for three years. AL
though this is true, it is evident from

DIET is IMPORTANT IN
BUILDING STRONG TEETH
Resistance Is Increased Against
Tooth Decay By Diet

at has been conclusively shown
that diet is an extremely important
factor in the building of strong teeth
and in increasing their resistance to
that destroyer of the teeth-tooth de-
cay" DR.. Richard C. Leonard, Chief
of the Division of Oral Hygiene, of
the Maryland State Department of
Health, said recently.
Because the needs of individuals
vary greatly, it is not possible to
specify a particular diet that can be
regarded as an absolute guarantee of
strong teeth and of freedom from de-
cay for each individual, but it is pos
SibIe to outline a diet that ordinarily
will serve this purpose. For dietetic
advice to meet individual needs, it is
necessary to consult your own doctor
or dentist.
"The strength of the teeth is main
tanned by certain mineral salts-no-
tably calcium and phosphorus, plus
the activity of certain vitamins, all
of them derived from food we eat.
Calcium is to be found in adequate
amounts in certain foods, especially
in milk, in other dairy products, and
in the green, leafy vegetables, such
as spinach, lettuce, dandelion greens,
etc Phosphorus is found in many
foods, among them, lean beef, liver,
chocolate, cocoa, egg yolk, nuts and
cheese.
"Vitamins A. C and D all play a
part in mouth health, in increasing
the resistance to disease and in
Strengthening the structure of the
teeth. Vitamins A and C are found
in dairy products, in fresh vegetables
such as peas, carrots, new cabbage,
etc. Vitamin D is found in milk, in
cod liver oil, in butter, in whole wheat
products and in certain meats. An
adequate supply of vitamin D, how
ever, is probably not to be had for
the growing child without the admin
istration of cod liver oil. Such adj
ministration should always follow spe-
cific advice from your own doctor.
DENTAL research workers and nu-
tritionists, who have made special
study of diet in relation to the MAX
ing of strong, healthy teeth and to
their protection from decay, have
found that from one to two pints of
milk per person, some meat (the more
milk used, the less meat needed), let
tuce, fresh vegetables and fresh fruits
especially oranges and lemons
meet the daily requirements of each
individual, as to mineral salts.
persons who are suffering from
diseases that require special diets,
must, of course, consult their own
doctors in regard to their specific
needs"

The Romance of Ruth.
erfOrd B. Hayes

One of the interesting stories about
President Rutherford B. Hayes is the
one that his mother selected his bride
for him. Whether the story is true
or not, the fact remains that the mar
ried life of President and Mrs. Hayes
was peculiarly romantic and happy
one. In an interesting story of the
romance of Rutherford B. Hayes, Mrs.
Edna M. Colman says in the current
issue Of the National Republic:
Rarely does a doting widowed
mother of an idolized only son delieb-
erately select his future wife for him,
and still more rarely does the young
man so fully agree with his mothers
ideas as to fall headlong in love with
the girl she chooses. Yet all of these
unusual elements contributed to the
romance of Rutherford Birchard
Hayes, young Ohio lawyer, who later
became the nineteenth President of
the United States, and Lucy Ware
Webb, also of Ohio, whom he wooed
and married in the most approved
lover-like fashion.
"In many ways the romance of
these two was unique. Young Hayes
was more or less amused at his moth
er's praises of little Lucy Webb, a
school GIRL whom she decided should
be her sons wife, long before he was
thinking of marriage. Although fully
aware of her hopes and plans from the
start he neither resented nor disap-
proved of her interest in his affairs.
In fact, he leased her about it from
time to time in his letters, yet he
seems to have fully agreed and &C.
cepted her judgment though perhaps
his good humored acceptance was his
way of taking the whole matter as a
joke.
However, after looking the young
lady over quite critically and deliber-
ately, he fell in love with her and set
himself to win her from all other suit
ors. Those who knew the Hayes
couple intimately claim that Cupid
inoculated both of the young people

It's Different Now

What a change few years can make. It wasn't SO long ago tbst the republicans ot this state ruled with an iron hand. They controlled every office in the state The democrats in the Legislature were a mere minority and were held in SO low esteem that the majority party ruled them not worthy ot representation in even the courts or commis- sions. It was in this period that the free state employment bureaus under the super vision of the State Labor Commissioner were created. It was also in this period that sal aries fer the members of the state tubereu- losis commission were voted and raised to the present S2.500 per annum.
 But since 1930 things have not been going So good for the g.o.p. of Connecticut. In that year it lost the governorship but re- tained its control of the Legislature. Last fall the goyernorship remained in democratic hands and control of the Legislature was divided. the democrats. taking the Senate, the republicans the House While the dem ocratic control of the Senate was proved to " AoAdST CAiothhS hielelT OH PdptL II 70 more than some of our republican leaders can stomach. They don't like this cond- tion of affairs. They have lately become reformers, so it would seem from their &C., tions and remarks. Among their recom- mendations now are elimination of the state employment bureaus and also the salaries of the tuberculosis commission.
 A thinking man might we'll ask why at this late day should such a procedure be taken. Of course the answer is economy. This is the time to economlze. say the re- publicans. We are faced with deficit that may in two years be more than the state can swallow. Therefore expenses. such as the free employment bureaus and the tuberculosis commissions salaries represent, must be slashed. The main argument though, now being used to encourage removal of salaries for this last named commission seems to be the fact that no other commission in the state is recompensed in such lavish fashion as this -$2,5 500 per annum.
 The Hartford Times very causually re- marks that the incongruty of paying sal- aries to members of this commission did not occur to the legislators during the years of republican administration, any more than did the question of the constitutionalty of permitting the governor to name judges of the courts of common pleas as long as republican was governor The republican mind about such things seems to be shar- pened when a democratic. governor is elected or when the tuberculosis commission acquires group of democratic members The re- publican House assumes large responsl- biity, 1t seems to us, when it insists that a S2.000,000 saving shall be withheld from taxpayers of the state unless the Senate agrees to reverse policy which has for years been satisfactory to the republican admins tration. ..

A New Interpretation

A new interpretation of Connecticut statutes governing gasoline taxes has re- suited in the Internal Revenue Department ruling that the state taxes in gasoline may be deducted from income taxes paid as far back as le31. By that we mean the tax paid for 1891 and not the tax paid in 193l, which. of course, was tax on the previous years income of l930. However, as the change in the Connecticut statutes, which permits this deduction, was not made until July l93l. only part of the year is covered by the ru- ing. Anybody who deducted gasoline taxes from the income tax he or she has just paid is within the law under this ruling.
 Formerly it was understood that gasoline taxes paid to state were not deductibe unless the motor vehicle was used for bus- ness purposes. This ruling was made ap. plicable on the assumption that the state tax on gasoline was not actually paid by the consumer to the state, but by the retailer. However, a study of the state law showed the Internal Revenue Department that aetu- ally the consumer of the gasoline was paying the tax. This favorable ruling may be laid at thesdoor of the 1891 Legislature which revised Section 1876 of the Revised Statutes to read. ' for the account of the pur- chaser or consumer. ."
 U. S. Commissioner of Internal Rev. enue David Burnet rules that It appears from the use- of the words flor the account of the purchaser or consumer in Section 3l5a of the Public Acts. 193l. that the General Assembly of Connecticut intended that the tax on gasoline imposed by that section of the law should be paid to the State by the purchaser or consumer through or by means of the distributor. It is held. therefore, that the gasoline tax imposed by. the State of Connecticut under the provisions of Section 315 a. is deductable for Federal income tax purposed by the purchaser or consumer for the year l93l and subsequent years.

Beer can be sold in Connecticut without any amendment of existing laws declared Kenneth Wayne of New Haven, executive secretary to Governor Gross. this week. Un- der Connectcut's enforcement act sale of only ale or beer of an alcoholic content high
 CT than that prescribed by Congress is pro- hibfted. As soon as the modified beer bill IS passed and beeoms legal fifteen days later this state will be one of a number where no re- strietions will bind manufacturers or retail CTS of beer. Of course it will be necessary for the state to set up regulations governing the sale of beer SO that the proper taxes may bs levied and its sale otherwise controlled. Doubtless that will be under the jurisdiction of commission named for the sole purpose. Some such scheme may be incorporated in the report of Governor Cross liquor commission now devising method of state control for use in the event of repeal of the 9th amend ment The state enforcement act will continue to be binding until the Bah amendment IS repealed. but the manufacture and sale ot malt and vinous beverages will be perfectly

Work For The Idle

If President Roosevelt can proceed with as much dispatch to put his unemployment relief plan into execution as he did with the Emergency banking. beer, and economy bills carly summer should find some 250,OOO smen engaged in turning flood devastated areas into habitable regions, fire-scarred hill sides into forest plantations. There IS noth- ing radical about the latest suggestion of the President, contained in one of those succinct messages for which he is now famous with less than months administration of the nations affairs in back of him.
 The weakest point in his latest scheme, to our way of thinking, is in the actual em- ployment of 250.000 idle hands In such work as he outlines We know there are many times 250,000 idle men and women in the United States who would leap at the opportunity to find steady employment, but are there 250,000 men who will undertake the work that President Roosevelt sets out for them retaining flood areas building roads, setting out trees. That's real hard work and events of the last decade have softened so many of us that real hard work no longer appeals.
 However. the work suggested by the 2 President is necessary. It must be done some time. If it can be done now and as form of relief. so much the better. We cer- tainly hope that the program can be set in motion this spring so that warm weather will find the proposed camps established from coast to coast. The recent destruction along the Ohio river, not to mention the California disaster should afford fine starting ob- jective. Let it not be understood that the President considers his program all that IS necessary to drive unemployment out of the nation. He recognizes, as do most men, that any public works program can do only an infinitesimal share of ending such a con- dition.
 The civilian conservation corps that President Roosevelt would enlist is going to be made up of one distinct class of men - men accustomed to the rigors of outdoor work and to the hardshps of work camps. It is work that won't appeal to the white collar man. In fact. he couldn't do it. He is not fitted by training nor character. No. doubt there are 250.000 men capable of do- ing the work in the United States, but will they! Upon the attitude of the vast armies of unemployed rests the success of this lat est experiment of President Roosevelt - not a new one to be sure, but one that IS nearer to accomplishment now than ever

SOME PATIENTS LIKE THE OLD SPANISI
 METHOD

In our referendum on tonsil removal sixty six votes were recorded in favor of the olt standard surgical tonsillectomy (with guillo tine and snare, or scissors or scalpel or finger dssection) under general anesthesia or loca anesthesia.
 It may be of interest to quote comments made by some of these:
 I had qunsy each winter for eleven years Always a sore throat Finally l had tonsils cut out. There was never any return of quinsy after that, and no throat trouble at all. Four others in my family have had their tonsils removed by the old method. Three had satisfactory results My husband still has an occasional sore throat. e. Eo
