 By such assaults Vandenberg Is building himself up as an out standing available candidate for the republican presidential nomination. If by any chance Gov. Ali Landon of Kansas should not be nominated, 1t is generally believed in Washing ton that Vandenberg would be the party's choice.

Doctors Praise Potatoes
and White Bread

Doctors have now come to the rescue
of the despised potato which Of late
years has fallen into undeserved dis
pute
According TO today's bulletin from
the Public Health Education Commit
tee of the Minnesota State Medical
Association, the potato has many i'm
portant uses in the body's scheme Of
things. It is rich in vitamins and in
energy producing materials and easy
to digest besides.
Those who avoid potatoes under the
impression that they are mostly starch
and wholly dedicated to increasing the
waistline are in great error.
Diet faddists have condemned the
potato unjustly as they have several
other good foods, white bread among
them" according to the physicians
bulletin. They dropped potatoes from

Its different today when relief in
Minnesota. federal and state, is being
administered by the executive council
The JOB is being done out in the open.
Early in February the SERA sub
mitted to the executive council an elab-
crate and detailed setup for relief in
every county in the state with exact
percentages of the allotment of federal
and state funds TO each county. The
executive offices Of the SERA demanded
that the executive council approve these
ALLEGATIONS on the spot. The executive
council demurred 1t wanted TO know
how and why the arrangement was ar
rived at.
The executive council finally approved
the ALLEGATION of funds for one month
and began an investigation. Twice the
executive council referred the setup back
to the SERA for further study and re-
vision. Being still dissatisfied after the
third report the executive council named
Administrator Zimmerman, State Audi
tor Staff King and w. H. Lamson, Sec
rotary of the executive council, as
committee to study and report on the
matter
As a result Of this study, which COW
cred a detailed examination Of the fl
ancial and relief conditions of each
county in the state, and upon which
the members of the committee did a
very fine piece of work, the executive
council approved on April 4th an allot-
ment under which no county in the
state would receive less than 10 per
cent Of its relief costs from the state.
Counties receiving the minimum allot-
ment Of 10 per cent are Houston, Fill

against the attorney general in the dis

Redwood Falls case the attorney gen.
aral again attempted to forecloSe the
people of the state from any right OF

auditor and the state treasurer. He was
again overruled by the district court.
In these matters, in addition, the at

1T happens that potatoes are actually
rich in vitamins, particularly in Wit
amins c and B and especially when the
peel is left on. And they 90 not lose
all of their vitamin content even when
the peel is taken off. They supply
mineral salts, too. as well as starch
which, in itself. is energy producing and
useful-and they are especially easy to
digest. They are so easy to digest, in
fact, that they are among the first foods
that can be safely given to small babies.
Potatoes are white, of course But
only faddists and false theorists oppose
white foods on general principles. The
same people oppose white bread, also
without reason. Both should be part of

1t is easy to criticize the traffic officer

TO criticize the law enforcement agen-
cies as well as the civic bodies that
built these ordinances that regulate oul
driving. All these restrictions were put
into law because we as automobile
drivers could not regulate ourselves
We violated all principles of decency
and courtesy: therefore, it became
necessary for the states, the counties
the cities, and the villages to pass laws
and force us into certain regulations.
Now that we have these requirements,
let us obey them and prevent accidents
thereby. Safe driving today demands
obedience and cooperation.

Fashion Flashes.

Much heavy gold jewelry Is being
worn with black daytime dresses, also
pearls for lightness in three and four
short strands. There is a growing
vogue for diamond jewelry, especially
since the adoption of court mourning
in England, as diamonds were the only
stones permitted to be worn. Formal
evening occasions are bringing out
magnificent jewels, including many
necklaces, the newest being like rigid
slave collars lying fiat and studded
with diamonds alone or with colored
stones. Mary earrings are noted, the
majority of the clip variety covering
the lobe of the ear They appear in
every conceivable form, often very
large. There are many wide brace
lets, sometimes reproducing old-fash-
ioned designs, in heavy gold or plat
mum with stones set flush with the
mounting. More pearls are noted for
daytime than evening. Pearl clips,
however, are good at all hours.

Fashion Forecasts.

Darn clever, these ChineseI One
Of the smartest tricks Of Springtime
fashion are those new chapeaux with
drooping feathers inspired by the
peaked headgear Of the old Chinese
statues.
One lovely example created by a
famous Paris designer shows a tall
cap trimmed with q fall of glycerined
ostrich. Another Interpretation proud
ly presents a satin toque in black,
also with glycerined feathers. Still
others do beguiling things with their
shiny feathers in the way of swirls and
fancies for center-front or crown
top ornaments on those very tiny hats,
which remind us somehow of man
larins' caps.
In fact, and as you have probably
already noticed, glycerined feathers,
both In ostrich and in quills, are
pretty important in Dame Fashions
style notes for the vernal season. Their
crisp, shiny smartness that gives exotic
cire touch that is the last word in
Spring modishness.

Shopping S 6
BY EMILY POST.

NEAR MRS. POST: In your splen-
~ did article on the customer and
the salesperson. and rules of behavior
necessary for both to follow, you did
not say anything about the discom-
future caused by so many customers
who insist upon going shopping all
through the store carrying lighted
cigarettes with them. There are
smoking rooms in every first-claSs de-
partment store, so why must thought
less customers fill the store with stale
smoke and not merely spill ashes and
leave butts all over the place, but give
salespeople the jitters in an effort to
keep eyes open to save their merchan-
disc from having holes burnt in it?
Answer-This is not easily answered,
because no store manager is likely to
risk making customers go elsewhere.
Unfortunately, many of the biggest
accounts are those of the very women
who smoke with least consideration for
others. AS I wrote before, the only
thing I know of that those of us who
do not smoke can do is to learn to
endure it-eXcept when there is a rea-
son other than our own dislike for
asking that others refrain from doing
what gives them very real pleasure.
For example. know I am very trying to
those with whom broadcast, because
I have to ask them not to smoke until
I have finished my own part on the
program. I have to ask this because
it has happened that I have choked
and strangled when I tried to talk at
length. And this is important not be-
cause of myself as one person, but be-
cause my bad performance would ruin
the program as whole. But, to go
back to the salesperson's dislike of
smoking. Frankly, it cannot be con-
sidered as important, compared with
the account of the customer. hate
to answer this way, but it is necessary
to remember the points Of view of
others as well as that of our own.
And feeling ourselves unfairly treated
is a most unsatisfactory habit of
mind. I think that the store would do
well to put ash trays on certain coun-
ters and have signs over others read
ing, please do not smoke here because
materials are infiammable.
But one thing is certain, no one

And Rinses

BY ELSIE PIERCE.

HAIR coloring is now an estab-
IShed vogue. Whether you wish
to heighten your own, natural color
or wish to experiment with shade
other than that which nature gave
you, there are really remarkable tints
and hair dyes on the market today.
One reason why, or I should say
two reasons why, hair coloring Is now
SO generally accepted are: First, the
hair coloring preparations have been
immeaSurably improved in the last
decade. Second, the operators doing
this delicate and important work are
very thoroughly trained. There's
nothing haphazard about their tech
nique.
Women are changing the color of
their tresSes with all the nonchallence
Of screen stars. In fact, our screen
stars often start vogue. When Jean
Harlow started the platinum" vogue
she created something Of a sensation.
And not so long ago when her hair
was turned honey brown shade a
good part of the feminine world wen+
"brownette."
This desire for change is a very
natural one. And it is well that we
can change our hair coloring SO easily
when We become bored with the shade
of our tresses. But it is also well to
remember that such hair coloring,
| tinting or dyeing should be entrusted
to an expert and not to be attempted
at home. An expert has at her skilled
| fingertips not only the technical
knowledge of shade matching, hair
softening, technique of application
and so on, but her training equips her
to know at glance whether a certain
shade of hair will harmonic with
the patrons skin, eyes and general
coloring. One mistake that women
often make in changing the hair color
is in insisting on a shade that is too
glaring or too young for their skin
Nature is a better artist there. She
gradually changes the whole color
harmony. And a true hair coloring
expert sticks as closely as possible
to Nature.
Liquid rinseS can easily be made

lemon rinse. camomile rinse can
come right off the kitchen shelf. Then
there are vegetable rinses, ready pre-
pared, that are fine and wash off when
the hair is shampooed. These are
merely poured over the hair after the
shampoo and heighten the natural
gloss of the hair. They are dis
tinctly different from tints or dyes,
which are somewhat more compli-
Gated, highly technical and worthy
