Red Cross Agencies
Safeguard Health

Five outstanding services make up
the health-conservation program Of
the American Red Cross, according to
the annual report just issued in Wash
ington. These services are first aid
and life saving, which together have
trained more than a million persons;
nursing, with an active enrolment OF
36,133 registered nurses; Public Health
Nursing, conducted by 75O nurses in
424 chapters last year; and Home
Hygiene, which has taught more than
100000 men and women simple ways of
caring for the sick at home.
"The achievements of the Red Cross
in public health nursing place it
among the leaders in this field" said
James L. Fieser, vice chairman in
charge of domestic operations. "This
service was organized in 1919 to meet
needs developed by the World War
and the ravages Of the flu epidemic
which in 191S-1919 took so great toll
Of life.
"Since that time Red Cross nursing
services have been pioneers in more
than one half of the counties in the
United State. Many services we estab-
lished were taken over later by civic,
state and federal agencies, and the
Red Cross continues to establish serv-
ices in other new fields. Red Cross
nurses made more than million visits
to patients last year, and 629,O25 chill
dren in schools were inspected.
RED Cross courses in home hygiene
and care of the sick are especially i'm
portant in times of depression, because
they teach families to maintain hy
gienic conditions in their own homes
and to recognize symptoms of illness
early enough to prevent serious con.
sequences.
"Our courses in first aid have been
instrumental in saving lives of the in
jured; in safeguarding the accident
victim until the physician arrives. and
in reducing time lost by workers in
factories. mines and other industries.
We are also giving the course exten.
sively to police and fire departments
throughout the country. and to state
highway patrols"
Everyone is invited to join the Red
Cross during the annual membership
roll call which continues from Armis-
tice Day to Thanksgiving, to have a
part in the health program and the
other humanitarian services of the Red
Cross.

Questions and Answers

Questions and Answers
Is 1t possible to make a frozen
dessert aoithout milk or cream?
Milk and cream are so healthful
that they contribute much to MAX
ing delicious frozen dessert.
However, if you especially wish to
omit the milk and cream, here is
a recipe that has been recommend
ed very highly.
Milkless Ice Cream
c. sugar u C.. water
Tbsp. cocoa egg yolks
IA c. boiling water
Heat cocoa In boiling water un-
til it is smooth. Hydrate gelatine
in "a C. water, then dissolve in
cocoa liquid. Beat egg yolks until
light, add to cooled cocoa, and
sugar mixture. Freeze until
mushy. Beat egg whites until
light and fluffy, then beat mushy
frozen mixture. Fold egg whites
into the partly frozen dessert, add
a pinch of salt and " teaspoon
of vanilla, if desired. Freeze un-
til firm.
What is the proper procedure
for preparing prumes? Should
they be soaked overmight9
To obtain the most tender re-
suits for stewed prunes, it is best
to soak the prunes in warm water
for several hours, or overnight.
They may then be simmered in
the unsweetened liquid or placed
in the oven while an oven meal
is cooking. Slow heating allows
the skins to become most tender.
Is 1T all right to substitute evap-
GRATED milk IN recipe that calls
for condensed milk?
There is a difference in the
sugar content of evaporated and
condensed milk and, for that rea-
son, it is not advisable to substi-
tute in a recipe that specifies one
or the other. Evaporated milk is
milk only. from which the water
has been extracted. Condensed
milk is milk that has had some
of the water removed, and to which
sugar has been added.
What would you suggest serving
with Chop Suey at dinmer9
To complete a menu on which
chop suey is the main dish. salad,
breadstuff, a beverage and dessert
are all that are necessary. IL the
chop suey is at all pretentious, it
is served with fried Chinese moo
dies and a vegetable salad is
usually well liked. The dessert
may be an oriental one, or a
sweet cake is appropriate. An ex-
cellent dessert is preserved fruits,
served with rice cakes. Cam
died ginger, cocoanut. ard pine
apple are also fsvori.es. Tea is
the most pleasant and fitting bev-
erage, but coffee nssy be preferred.

GAINS RESUMED
IN HARDWARE

A comfortable rate of expan-
sion continues in hardware sales,
whether reported by manufac-
turers or by wholesalers. The
movement of goods has returned
to normal in areas where the de-
mand was retarded by the late
February storms.
Hardware Age will say tomor-
row in its market summary, a
number of wholesalers found the
latespurt of winter demand very
helpful in clearing remaining sup
plies of coldweather items. Mean
while, there has been no let-up in
current spring ordering by re-
tailers. Much dealer buying is for
replenishing stocks too moder-
ately estimated on first orders.
Sales managers and travelling
executives. familiar with condi-
tions in all parts of the country,
report that the South and Mid

ment is said to be more noticeable
in small towns than in cities.
Some statesmen calling at towns
neglected for the past two years
are obtaining fair-sized orders.
AS soon as prices are announced
for any future selling, orders COM
mence to flow readily to whole
salers, and for rather generous
quantities. The experiences of ad-
vances already paid, on spring
hardware and supplies bought
late, is encouraging early action
by dealers when futures are Of
fered. Prices and terms are avail
able on most of the leading fall
lines, but present quotations can
rarely be guaranteed to continue
throughout the season.

Haney Scans Future
NRA Possibilities

greater emphasis on the direction
Of business as whole for political
purposes, on a sort of limited
capitaliStic basis.
The administration has tended
to interfere with profits, and to
regulate prices and production.
1t is now urging business leaders
to run their industries for the
purpose of giving work to more
employees and paying out more
wages, as a relief" measure. The
General has held over their heads
the threat that if they do not do
this, the radical elements in the
nation will turn them out and
set up a Socialist state.
8. Still another possibility may
be seen in the growing power of
organized labor. The political
power of labor in a Democratic
State may become very great, to
say nothing of the possibilities
of the strike. It is therefore
conceivable that some form Of
guild socialism" might emerge,
with control of overproduction
exercised by the laborers, at least
partly through the Government.
The political power of the farm
ers, and the strong American ira
dition of individualism in bust
ness and general political democ-
racy, stand in the way of such
a development.
The whole NRA aspect of
the New Deal is just now at
critical point. AS usual dur
ing the past year, the thing Is
all mixed up with temporary
relief and an attempt to con-
ceal the dole system But un-
derneath, lie the questions, will
business leaders" keep con-
troll nd establish a mOnOp-
OliStic cartel system? Or will
Government take the business
reinS?
And if it is to be Government
control, who will control the
Government-the business men?
The laborers? The farmers? Or
difference whether it is to be-
all of us? It will make a lot Of
difference whether it is to be-
come a sort of Americanized
Sovietiem (Socialism) or a
Washingtonian Fascism Estate
Capitalism, or swing back to-
ward democratic individualism.
I suspect that the measure Of
success attained in giving emer-
gency relief and stimulating busi-
ness during the next few months,
will decide.

HIT TAX BILL

F. w. Woolworth Company filed
a brief with Senate Finance Com
mittee through counsel protesting
provisions of the new tax bill
which would reduce by one-half
the foreign credit which has been
deductible by American corpora
tions since 1918.
Through these foreign credit al
lowances, American corporations
trading abroad have been able to
avoid the injustice of double taxa
tion. The brief submitted also
stated that enactment of the pro-
posed provision would work
hardship on corporations doing
business ABROAD.
The reduced foreign credit. the
brief said, would affect income re-

They hope for increased de-
centralization of control. Then,
when prosperity eventually re-
turns, they will have things seWed
up as nicely as eevr.
At times General johnson has
said things encouraging bust
ness leaders in their idea Of
"self government" And just

encouragement in staving off
the proposed edict for a sweep

increase in labor costs.
But one great difficulty con-
fronts them in the governments
desire to use NRA as a means OF
relief" for the unemployed-as a
means of forcing private dole
system on business. Another
difficulty lies in the rapid growth
of organized labor and its demand
both for higher wages and a
greater voice in industrial control.
The old business leaders are
hard put to it to find scheme
for satisfying these two demands,
without giving up control or los
