NNE of the best bargains the
" home-maker can buy is found
in the dried vegetables known as
legumes-peas, beans and lentlls,
Although poor in vitamins g and
C they are rich in calories and
mineral salts and lend themselves
to many savory dishes suitable FOL
cold days.
Because these vegetables have
long been known to be rich IN
protein they are often called the
poor mans meat" and are regard
ed as meat substitutes. However,
with the realization that great
difference exists in the nutrit1Ve
value of proteins from dlnerent
sources, legumes nowadays are not
considered an adequate substitute
fer meat unless they are served
with such protein foods as milk
and eggs. The protein found IN
dried beans, peas and lentils Is
known as an incomplete" protein
which is lacking in those SUD
stances necessary for growth and
heSlth.
Minerals In LegumcS
These qualities are mentioned
not with the intention of discour-
aging the use of the legumes, put
to give mothers a clearer under
standing of the actual value OF
these foods in the diet
Quite aside from their protein
content, legumes furnish iron and
PHOSPHORUS in worthwhile guam
titles. Both these mineral consult
uents are of great Importance Tor

peas and beans also contain
much starch and care must be
taken in planning meals that other
foods rich in starch are not in
cluded. .
Since legumes are mild in flavor
they are more appetizing if COM

The Times, News bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Jan. O. While
everything seems calm and placid
on the surface, an intense strug-
gle is going on beneath the sur
face over the prospective appoint
ment of the two associate utilities
commissioners, it was learned
here. The various public utility
companies are reported as doing
everything in their power to block
the appointment of some of those
known to be under consideration
by Governor J. C. B. EhringhauS
as we'll as urging the appointment
of some others. During the past
week there has been a steady
stream of callers in the gov
ernor's office to urge the APP
pointment of this or that man or
to object to the appointment OF
others. 1t is also known that the
governor has received scores of
letters and kilograms with regard
to these appointments.
Governor Ehringhaus continues
to give no indication as to who
he expects to appoint as associate
commissioners, although he adj
mits that these appointments
have more trouble than any he
has been called upon to make so
far. For while the salaries are
small-only 5000 a year-the po-
sitions are very powerful, since
the two associate commissioners,
with the utilities commissioner,
will have full power and author
ity to fix rates, determine valua-
tions and regulate generally all
public utilities in North Carolina.
In addition, the two associate
commissioners will have the pow
er to overrule the utilities COM
missioner. This latter fact, it is
believed, is the reason why some
of the utility companies are so
interesed in THESE appointments.
For if both the associate commits
Sioners should happen to be class
ed as unfriendly to the utilities
companies. it admittedly would
be Just too bad for them. But if
the utility companies can manage
to get associates appointed who
are more or less friendly to them,
they will have nothing to fear.
1t is already evident that a
strong effort is being made to
prevent the appointment of John
Sprunt Hill Of Durham, as one of
the associate commissioners, al
though it is agreed that Hill un-
doubtedly has been under serious
consideration and probably still
is. But ever since it became

the solemn tone OF the memoran-

OFFICIAL QUERY ,
Here Is the question IN official
language:
Would you buy 4 two-place,
low-wing monoplane, constructed
Of a new steel alloy. fitted with
an eight-cylinder Small-bore en-
CINE of 100 rpm. and a geared
propeller. The landing speed
would be about 20 miles per hour,
using air-brakeS? If the answer
is NO. please give your rea-
sons.
Pilots everywhere, as apparent
ly waS anticipated, answered
NO" for the following reasons;
In the first place, aviation has
passed through two adolescen'
"flivver plane" phases. First to
foster the cheap. mass production
airplane idea was Henry Ford
More than five years ago the au'
tomobiIe manufacturer looked tol
commercial possibilities in flying
II was quite natural for him tc
nit on the "flivver" idea in con

ed designers who drew up plans
for the first practical, lOw-powel
airplane. 1t proved tragically i'm,
practical, however, and Ford
went in for higher powered three
motored ships. SO passed the first
phase.
SPEED DEMANDED
Another thing, speed is the life
blood of flying. Any airplane
that cruises less than 10O-miles-
per-hour is not highly regarded
by your airman of today. The
small types of planes cruise at a
mere 65- to 75-miles-per-hour.
Also, speed is what the world de-
mands in all forms of transpOrta-
ton. Those of US who have

ICE CONTINENT
SECRET, GOAL
Ellsworth and BaIchen on
First Phase of South
Polar Exploits

DUNEDIN. New Zealand. Jar.
9.-UW.-The last great adven-
ture of South Polar exploration
has started.
The intrepid U. S. explorers,
Lincoln Ellsworth and Bernt Bal
chen, are on the first stage Of
their attempt to discover the Sc
cret Of the Antarctic continent.
They are on the little motor
ship. Wyatt carp. near the edge
of the great ice barrier on the
Ross Sea. From there. during the
Antarctic summer. they hope to
fly over the vast. unknown ice
wastes to the Weddell Sea, dis
lance of nearly 1900 miles.
EXPLORE ANTARCTICA
They will attempt to discover
whether Antarctica, with the
South Pole lying at its heart. is
one continent; two continents,
with the great indentations form
ed by the Ross Sea and the We'd
dell Sea showing where the divi-
sion occurs: or an archipelago,
bound by the antarctic ice into
one mass a million square miles
larger than Europe.
Balchen. who has flown the Az
lantic. and taken Admiral Byrd
by plane to the South Pole. will
pilot the flight. He will also act
as radio operator, while Ellsworth
will be busy as navigator, photog-
rapher and record keeper.
PICTURE PLANS
Flying at 10000 feet. the air.
men should be able to see for 100
miles on either side. Two hand
cameras for obliquc and vertical
pictures will be carried. and also
a new type of camera. operated
by a l2-volt motor driven from
the engine generator. which will
take one picture every six seconds
throughout the entire journey.
The plane is equipped with two
radio sets. one run by motor and
the other worked by hand - in
case the airmen are forced down.
II will be in constant touch with
the base during the fight. An
other prccaution, which was taken
while the expedition was at Dune
din. was to paint the plane orange.
Fitted with both wheels and
skis. the plane has flying range
of 1000 miles and "A speed of 212
miles an hour. It's special con-
struction allows it to land at as
low as AZ miles an hour.

keep up with ordinary stock cars
on the road. But back to the
celebrated questionable:
How many persons, to your
personal knowledge. in addition
to yourself, would purchase such
an airplane?"
Absolutely none to my person
al knowledge. Although there
NAV be a couple of hundred of
Barnum's pets still left loose in
the land. Which would leave $500
of the little putt-putts to be dis
posed of.
GROUP OWNERSHIP
"Do you know of any groups
that would buy this type of air
plane on a cooperative, or COM
. munity basis. If so. how many"
No. not one. For, it has long
since been proved that group
ownership is not satisfactory.
There are several schools that
employ a midget" type for prim-
airy instruction. However, no sane
flying school operator would take
on a brand new, untried ship.
After it had proved it's worth,
maybe. But not until then.

STUDY COURSE
IS ADOPTED
State Commission Hopes
Its Tentative Program
Will Save Money
The Times-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Jan. 9.-The tenta-
tive course of study in history
for the elementary schools of the
state has been completed by the
elementary textbook commission
which also plans for hearing rep,
resentatives of publishers of the
various books that have been pre-,
scented for its consideration, il
was learned. The commission was
in session here Friday and Sat,
urday of last week and adopted
rulers to govern the hearings tC
be held here January 10 and 20
at which time the representatives
of the various publishers will be
allotted 80 minutes each to pre-,
sent the merits of their history
books. No other meeting will be
held until that time.
Superintendent Clyde Erwin OF
the Rutherford county schools, is
chairman of the textbook com.
mission, and Mrs. A. r. Wilson
principal of the Lakewood school
in Durham, is its secretary.
The commission is hoping that
the tentative course of study
which it has set up, will save the
state. or rather the school chill,
dren of tie state, some money and
at the same time increase inter,
est in history in all the grades
The present history books have
been in use for some II years
and are considered badly out OF
date. The new course Of study
is designed to increase emphasis
on North Carolina history, SC
that the school children may gain
a deeper insight into the history
of their own state and corelatl
this history with their general
history. 1t is contemplated to
develop a better cO-ordinated
course Of study that will extend
from the elementary grades on
into the high school grades with
out leaving the wide gap that
heretofore has existed between
elementary and high school his
tory courses.
"Our main objective in work
ing out this course Of study in
history has been to try to select
a course that will arouse the in
terest of the children and give
them a better understanding Of
social and governmental problems
and thus better prepare them to
meet the problems they will come
face to face with in living their
lives" Mrs. Wilson said.

looked like a genuine state high
way and public works commission
voucher. 1t was cashed by the
J. C. Penny company store in
Rockingham. Four of the other
forged checks were cashed in
Asheboro and one in Wadesboro.
These forged checks are very
easy TO detect by authorities here
who are familiar with the various
forms of checks and vouchers
used, since they have two very
glaring defects, according to
State Treasurer Johnson. Other
wise they look almost exactly like
the state highway and public
works commission vouchers. The
two defects are that on the two
lines for signatures, they are
signed Baxter Durham, State
Auditor" and on the second line
az. B. Jeffress, Chairman" while
the genuine highway commission
vouchers are not signed by State
Auditor Baxter Durham at all.
The genuine vouchers are signed
on the top line by f. B. JeffresS,
chairman and on the second line
by Sam n. Smith, auditor for the
state highway and public works
commission.
1.-THE signatures of both State
Auditor Baxter Durham and of
Chairman JeffreSS are almost
perfectly forged and difficult to
detect as forgeries," Johnson said
THE thing that branded the
checks as forgeries was chat the
state auditor never signs these
vouchers"

All Neiehbors
BY JOHN BLAKE.

WHEN the first colonists scame to
America they had to be little
careful about their neighbors. These
neighbors were the owners of the soil,
and they had an annoying way of
enforcing their claim to 1t with bows
and arrows.
For very long time this remained
an unneighborly country. The Eng
lish and the Dutch colonists distrusted
one another. The Spaniards, who
were convinced that they owned the
whole country by right of discovery,
didn't care for any interference by
people of other nations. And so, until
a large part of North America was
put under one flag, quarrels between
neighbors served to put the brakes on
such wheels of progress as had been
set in motion at that time.
Then there were the days when the
North and the South ceased to be
neighborly, because Of a misunder-
standing which for a time threatened
to split the whole nation asunder..
But we are neighbors now, and
good ones. And so firm Is the mutual
understanding that exists among all
the people of the country that nothing
short of a political cataclysm can
break it.
There are still mutterings and dif-
ferences of opinion between the
political parties. But these are due
alone to conflicting ideas as to what
ought to be done in the future. The
fact that we are all neighbors, and
good ones, is one of the foundations
of our greatness as q Nation.
Because we are united on matters Of
the highest importance we have been
able to go far along the road Of
progress. 1t is even difficult I'd start
a good-sized row in a presidential
campaign.
Some credit is to be given to the
men who have opened lines Of COM
munication by motor cars. railroads,
steamships and radio. But the i'm
provement in our peace Of mind and
happiness is chiefly due to the fact
that we are all working with one
common purpose, which Is to make
this safe and a pleasant land in
which to live, and In which to bring
up children who will carry on the
good work after we are gone
