DR.. McCollum sets down these
simple rules for you to follow in
planning wholesome meals:
Cd Consider the whole day, rather
than the individual meal, as unit.
If breakfast is meager, serve a
heavier lunch and dinner. Plan SO
that the shortcomings of one meal
are met by the other two.
% Use some raw food, fruit or
vegetable at least once day.
% Serve at each meal some con-
centrated food, either as a main
dish, a soup, beverage or dessert.
Usually at least one hot dish is de-
sirable.

flavors and textures. Thus, O. highly

THE FINAL RITES

TINE American Federation of Labor is be-
ginning to collect museum exhibits" on
child labor Shop bulletin board notices pay
envelopes, newspaper clippings photographs,
letters-all sorts of things that show what
child labor was and how it operated are be-
ing assembled under direction of President
William Green, so that future generations
can know just how the childhood of this ma
ton was exploited.
Now the interesting thing about this move
is the implication that goes with it. The fed
Grafton is making this collection for the sim
pie reason that it believes child labor to be
definitely thing of the past.
1t believes that within a very few years
child labor will be unknown in America; so
it is laying away its exhibits while there still
is time.
Few things that have happened this year
have been of much more Importance than
this victory over an ancient menace to nation

COTTON AND RUSSIA

THE south, usually conservative, wants Rus
Il STA recognized, an aim of liberals and
progressives for sixteen years.
1t has a deep monetary interest in the
coming conversations between President Roose-
welt and Foreign Minister Litvinof. Recog-
milton of Russia probably will mean large
Russian sales of southern cotton.
This will not, of course, mean more money
for the south alone. For if the south has new
money to spend, so will the industrial centers
of the east and the farming sections of the
west and midwest. One section of this coun-
try can not prosper without others benefting.
Many big southern newspaper has long been
for Russian recognition, fact reflected in the
nonpartisan poll conducted by the committee
on Russian American relations Newspapers
over the country generally stand better than
two to one for recognition.
1t is with this type of backing that Presi-
dent Roosevelt will enter into his converse
lions with Minister Litvinoff One need be no
more afraid of Bolsheviki bogey-man than
the other of capitalist bogey-man. Both,
representing great peoples, have important and
delicate problems to settle.
And If their talks lead to the resumption
of normal commercial and diplomatic rela-
lions between the United States and the U. S.
s. r. the south will join the rest of the states
in applauding one of the great accomplish
ments Of craftsmanship since the war.

Balanced Meals Protect Health

seasoned food may be served with
or following bland food, or soft
food may follow crisp one. Alter
nate simple, less concentrated dishes
with those of greater concentra-
ton.
90 Size of portions served varies
with richness of food and number
of courses The richer the food and
the greater the number of courses,
the smaller the portions served.
And don't make these mistakes,
warns DR.. McCollum:
/. Don't serve an excess of any
one foodstuff at the same meal. For
example, meat and cheese or eggs
at the same meal concentrate the
protein; rice and potatoes concen-
trate the carbohydrate; fried pota-
toes and rich pastry or doughnuts
offer too much fat.
2. With the exception of such
staples as bread, butter and milk,
don't serve the same food twice in
one day without varying the form
in which it is served.
3. Don't use the same food twice
in the same meal even in different
forms. For example, don't serve
tomato soup and baked tomatoes
together; don't serve a cream soup
and another creamed dish at the
same meal.
Such combinations, where variety
in color, form and texture are ig-
nored, are monotonous and serve to
detract from the value of other
wise wholesome foods.

FARMERS AND SEDITION

Turing and after the war the legislatures
wave of red phobia, passed criminal syndical-
ism" or sedition laws for the suppression of
the I. w. w. and other radical minorities In
many of these states it was pressure from
the farmers that forced passage of these I'M
American statutes. Now, ironically enough,
two groups of farmers have been indicted I'M
der Michigans criminal syndicalism law.
One Michigan case grew out of trouble at
White Cloud last March, when 300 farmers
were set upon with gas bombs and clubs of
the sheriff's men for protesting a foreclosure
sale of an 80-year-old farmers property. Ac-
cording to the American Civil Liberties Union,
George Casper, arrested under the syndicalism
law for inflammatory utterances, was a candi-
party. At Bad Axe seven other farmers were
arrested under this law for a similar disturb
ance. The union says that none of these was
a radical.
Nothing so reduces these sedition laws to
absurdty as their use against rebel farmers.
Desperate farmers may organize strikes refuse
to pay taxes or defy foreclosure orders. They
are not thereby guilty of sedition or criminal
syndicalism," whatever that is.

Adolf Hitler is in short a grave
menace to world peace and to the
intelligent progress of civilized man.
His campaign Of fanaticism and his

And it is entirely possible that the
Hitlers of the earth will appear to

will be short in the land. They are
but another plague following the
great war. The kind of thing Hitler
is trying to do is as sure of ultimate
failure as spring is sure to follow
winter in the rotation of seasons.

FRIDAY. NOV. 3. 1893.
AMERICAN LIFE

A WAY back in the days Of the Roman en-
pire, when the Caesars were worried by
a steadily rising tax rate and slow stagna-
ton of business, the populsce was kept quiet
by judicous mixture Of bread and games
The government undertook to feed the
hungry, bringing IN great shiploads of wheat
from Alexandria. And since Rome was full
of unemployed, great gladiatorial shows
were staged frequently in the coliseum, to
keep the proletariat's mind off its troubles.
The upshot. as everybody knows, was that
nobody worried about anything and the en-
pire finally collapsed of it's own weight.
All this ancient history is mentioned here
because there are people who think something
similar is happening in America today.
President A. H. Upham of Miami university
told an Ohio teachers convention the other
day that right now we are in fair way to
slide down to the old Roman level. On one
hand we have vast masses of people whose
first interest is in getting enough to eat, and
who are looking to the federal government to
meet that need.
On the other, We have developed a craving
for a circus type of entertainment - world
series games, great football contests, aberra-
tons such as marathon dance contests Groom
ers fan dancers and the grotesqueries of pro-
fessional boxing and wrestling matches.
The result, says President Upham, is that
we are apt to forget the values that really
matter-self- denial, service, idealism, a taste
for literature and art, and so on.
There is no question that you could make
out a good case for pessimism, if you chose.
We do support lot of entertainments"
that seem to have been drawn up by and for
morons.
And yet it is very easy to assume that these
things matter more than really is the case.
There is plenty of froth on the surface of
American life, heaven knows. But beneath
it all there flows swift, deep, and powerful
current-an aWarenesS of life's real problems,
a determination to do something effective
about them, an idealism that will respond
when any one makes a proper appeal to it.
The biggest mistake any one could make
today would be to assume that the great mass
of the populace is needless and f1ippant. I'm
derneath there is driving force and a seri-
business of purpose that never should be for
gotten.

PERFECT AUGMENTATION

THERE is something intensely interesting
about the recent revelation of the names
of the Moy family in San Francisco's China
town.
Maybe you didn't read about it in the
papers? Well there are seven sons in this
family of CALIFORNIA; Chinese, and their
names are as follows: william Howard Taft
Moy, Thomas Jefferson Moy, Theodore R6ose-
velt Moy, Abraham Lincoln Moy William Nc
Kinley Moy, Ulysses S. Grant Moy, and George
Washington Moy.
The roll call speaks for itself. It indicates
not only pretty thorough bit of American
ization but staunch and lusty pride in the
land of this family's adoption.
Here, apparently is one Chinese family
that has done everything humanity possible to
become 100 per cent American.
CHANGING at those names, one can do no
less than wish the San Francisco Moys lots
of luck and all the prosperity they can stand

Eat what you want after you
have eaten what you should"

Keep this advice in mind when
you pick your food. You'll be sure
of we'll balanced meals to guard and
prolong your health.
At least, you won't make the mis-
take of several young women in the
Y. w. c. A. cafeteria at Baltimore,
when dietetic authorities of Johns
Hopkins hospital observed them
choose menus like these:
l. Meat pie, stewed tomatoes,
white mullins, bread.
2. Corn beef hash, mashed po-
tatoes, succotaSh, bread, cornbread,
butter.
g. Meat pie. raised biscuits, po-
tato salad, coffee.
a. Beef croquette, mashed pota-
toes, stewed tomatoes, bread, butter.
Not one of these girls had chosen
a suitable meal, for each of the
menus was deficient in some neces-
sary constituents to the diet. A suit
able diet involves proper combina-
ton Of foods, so what is lacking in
one substance is provided by an
other.
You'll correct most of the errors
in your diet by taking quart of
milk a day, with a liberal serving
of green vegetables. The milk may
be III the form of the liquor or as
ice cream, cream soup, creamed
vegetables, custards or buttermilk.
Also, say such dietetic special
lists as DR.. E. V. McCollum and Miss
j. Ernestine Becker, salad should
be eaten twice a day.

Too Much SilUer Lininq

OCCASIONALLY somebody comes
~ along and puts an optimistic
eye on the course of events in the
nation in this manner:
Il think this talk of poverty and
want must be very much exagge-
rated. There wasn't a table for
love or money after o'clock in the
speakeasy last night. And we
couldn't get anything, not even from
the specs for the show we wanted
to catch. And I never saw more
Jewels and furs than were being
shown off in the night club. Where
is all this poverty?"
Evidently the better speakeasies
are not the places to look for it.
Some of these slackers who are liv-.
ing on 1888 a week have refused to
heed the injunction to buy now.
They give no aid to recovery but
stay at home nights. If they can
find a home.

SKELETONS OF DIPLOMACY

"THILE mon spectacular foreign news is
w in the headlines, the administration is
preparing quietly for the crucial Pan-American
conference next month in Montevideo. More
and more isolated as we are by the disputes
and war dangers of Europe and of the far
east, the administration is anxious to build
up Latin-American trade and friendship.
President Hoover had the same idea and
failed-because Latinz America distrusted his
Caribbean policy Will President Roosevelt
also fail and for the same reason?
Success or failure will turn upon issues
which may seem small to us, but which are
all-important to Latin-Americans These
smaller misunderstanding are all facts of
the larger issue of imperialism.
Cuba will be one test. We say the United
States has not interviewed in Cuba. They
reply: Yes, but the threat of Cuban inter-
vention is always present. They add with
truth that the American ambassador virtually
hand-picked the De Cespedes government and
when it was overthrown then refused to recog-
nize the present government. There seems to
be no good reason why we have failed to>recog
nize the present government.
Latin-America says it is because We wish
to dictate in Cuba That probably is not
true. but appearances are against us.
We are in the unfortunate position of hav-
ing good intentions and an honorable policy
but of failing to get credit for either because
of the ineptness of our diplomacy.
Since both the Hoover and Roosevelt ad-
ninistrations have demonstrated our I'M
willingness to intervene in Cuban domestic
affairs under the Platt amendment why don't
we cash in on that liberal policy by formally
renouncing those unused and unpopular spe-
cial privileges of intervention?
AS regards the rest of Latin America, why
don't we modernize the Monroe doctrine. max
ing it a sjoint instrument of protection by
which we act in concert with other American
governors rather than set ourselves apart as
the sole judge and the sole polceman-a
thankless and dangerous role?
Haiti also will be held against us at Monte
xtdeo. We have washed up about nine tenths
of our Haitian imperialism. but we are to
keep marines there for another year and are
m continue large financial control through two
American officials. The Haitian minister in
washington just has resigned on this issue,
after bitter protest at meeting of the Pam
American union. Since We are withdrawing
anyway, why don't We get out of Haiti before
the Montevideo conference, instead of a year
or so later?
Meanwhile, mass protest has appeared in
usually peaceful Puerto Rico. Most Of the
protest is directed at Governor Gore and his
alleged misrule. Though many elements OF
the population are affected, the student
strikers-as in Cuba-are leaders Of revolt.
puerto Ricans are prepared to carry their
fight to Montevideo.
The tragedy of these situations is pre-
cisely in the fact that the Washington gov
erment under President Roosevelt is just as
much interested as is Latin America in Civ
ing a square deal to the Haitians, the Cubans,
and the Puerto Ricans.

Sacrifice by assignment

PRACTICALLY all the sacrifices
Il have been made by those who
had no choice in the matter. 1 have
before me some figures as to weekly
allotmentS for certain skilled work
ers under the temporary emergency
relief administration. There are
about $50 teachers under state edu-
cation department supervision who.
Tor the last year. have been paid
SIS a week on relief funds. Now
cut is proposed. Under the new
budget single man will get 1858,
a single woman 1888 and a man,
wife and child $11.80. These teach
ers are selected group. Some are
doctors of philosophy, and there are
any number of masters of arts to
whom 1888 a week will be assigned.
And so 1 want to know Just who
is sacrificing what when highly
trained teachers are asked to func-
ton on allowances which makes
starvation daily battle not to be
won except by ingenuity and all the
luck in the world.
l know that many persons who
were wealthy are less prosperous
than in the good old days. Indeed,
I've even met men who were high
ly successful in industry who tell
me now that they're broke. But
there is a catch in it.
I remember years ago on a copy
desk the man next to me picked
up the story handed down and said:
Here's very pitiful item. The
president of big bank who used to
be rolling in money has gone broke"
