Luscious Jam
Easy to Make

The easiest way of cooking mar
nalades and jams, without constant
stirring and fear Of scorched fruit,
is to use the electric oven, accord
ing to Lucille Ramirez, home econ
Umist.
Simply put the washed and pre-.
pared fruit in deep pan like
dishpan, and place in the cold cleo
trio oven on the second rack from
the bottom. Set temperature con-
troll to 400 degrees and turn oven
switch to bake position. When the
fruit is cooked mushy add sugar
and continue cooking until thick.
GRAPE JAM
From a cookbook of half a CEN
fury ago comes this recipe for rich
purple jam-easy to make the cleo
trio oven way, Miss Ramirez an
nounces.
Pulp the washed grapes, putting
grape skins into a bowl and the
pulps into a large deep pan. Set
in the electric oven with tempera-
ture control at 400 degrees and
oven switch at "bake." When the
pulps have cooked just enough to
be soft, rub through colander to
remove seeds. Combine the pulps
and skins, add cup and half Of
sugar to every pound Of fruit, and
return the pan to the oven. Cook
until thickened. Pour into steril.

of logic to be presented to the coun-
try as vote-getting bait! Wouldn 7
lone sane man in the crowd stand up
and say: "For heavan g sake, don It
make monkeys out of all of us; don =

jump"
But here it is in black and white.
and nothing can rub it out. 1t should
be blazoned on every boarding in the
country as an example of the honesty
and sincerity of Landon and his re-
dictionary pals.
If Hamilton and Hoover had taken
their queue from the astute James
Farley they could not more shamefully
have revealed the whole mess of de-
ception and intrigue cooked up by
the economic royalists for popular con-
sumption.
Hamilton 3 talk in the Hollywood
Bowl was merely photographic rec
ord of what he has been telling every
audience since he began his trail-blaz-
ing campaign namely, that the
Roosevelt administration is spending
too much money, and that Jim Farley
is very bad man, indeed.
We may excuse Landon's manager
for having nothing more important to
say, for Landon, himself, has not yet
made up his mind what he is going to
say. Repeatedly he and Knox have
promised to announce what the party
proposes to do 'some time between
now and election" but not yet. While
he conferred with the Los Angeles
party leaders Hamilton should have
been told that this question Of govern
ment spending is peculiarly delicate
one in this locality just now. Among
the boys prompting him to complain
about spending and waste are several
now pleading with the administration
to spend some 40 or so millions more
in the Los Angeles area for flood con-
troll projects, school rehabilitation and
other necessities which the state Of
California can't take care of. Cali
eornia has benefited tremendously
from government spending both in the
matter of employment and in securing
badly needed public improvements.
Governor Merriam and his colleagues
in our republican state government
have been having royal time impor-
tuning Washington for more money to-
spend in various relief agencies and
then abusing the Roosevelt admins
tration for giving it to them.

THREE HURDLES FOR LANDoN

Here are few news bulletins of
great political significance.
Bulletin No. 1-Hoover's Landon
leaves for tour of corn belt to attack
Roosevelt agricultural policies.
Note A. Corn sells for a dollar a
bushel. the highest in 16 years.
Note B. In 1882, the last year of
Hoover, corn sold for ten cents bu-
shell and farmers were burning it be-
cause it was cheaper than coal.
Note c. Farmers are rushing their
hogs to slaughter because they can t
afford to feed them dollar-a- bushel
corn.
Note D. Under Hoover's Farm
Board there was no market for hogs
fed with 10-cent corn.
Note E. Every year since Roose-
welt took command at Washington
farmers have been able to buy more
things, city people have been able t.
sell more, meaning business improve
ment and more people going back t.
work.
Bulletin No. @Hearst's Landon
is going to attack Roosevelt's Labor
policies in Pennsylvania.
Note A. Because Of the President Is
insistent demand for new deal OF
labor, there has been an advance in
wage scales and reduction in the
hours of labor in most of the nation IS

Note B. Mainly due to the Presi-
dents uncompromising support Of the
principle of collective bargaining, the
workers of the country are, for the
first time in history, united behind q
presidential andidate-Franklin d.
Roosevelt.
Bulletin No. 3-The Liberty Lea

intrusion Of government into business
and industry in New York.
Note A. Business and industry in
the United States are advancing at a
pace not exceeded during the boom
postwar days.
Note B. The aggregate corporation
income of the United States in 1896 is
officially reported in excess of SEW
EN- BILLION DOLLARS against a
deficit during the last-year-of-H Hoover
amounting to $1,676,229.650.
Note G. induces of steel, the ma

and kindred industrial fields show
that the United States is now entering

velopment that promises TO surpass

1t would be difficult to conjecture
which is the highest. Perhaps the most
embarrassing will be Farmer Landon Is

the Old Guard predicted would bring
ruin and devastation to American ag-
riculture.
The President, observing that
through IL years Of Republican rule
the condition of the farmer had grown
worse and worse, until when he took
office the industry was bankrupt, with
more than 40 per cent Of the farms
going under the hammer for debt,

about money-spending, but presently

OLD GUARD HAS NOW
ABANDONED LAST HOPE

After listening to John Hamilton,
the young Lochinvar who came out of
the east to seduce the gullible Cali
fornians into the Tory fold, one be-
comes more confirmed in the impress
sion that the Old Guard has abandon
ed the faintest hope of making a show
ing in 1886 and is merely fighting to
keep the G. 0. P. from falling into
the limbo that holds the Wings, the
Greenbackers and other superannuated
political parties.
The Hamilton drive opened in San
Francisco with prize blunder. Hoov-
er, blatantly heralded in the Hearst
newspapers, cut short his vacation in
Montana to launch the Landon craft
in his home state, thereby destroying
the humorous fiction that there is no
warm entente between the boys who
precipitated the late panic and that
valiant new champion of popular lib
erty, the silent Kansas millionaire.
And this was the hot blast with
which the Palo Alto sage began his
plea for the perpetuation of Rugged
Individualism in the United States:
cit is the record Of action of the
past four years that displays the New
Deal attitude toward the safeguards
of American life. It is not their words.
That record begins with their prom
Uses in 1892.
Breaking of these promises began
with so days after the election. The
realization that they would not be
kept produced the bank panic. There
from came the setback to the recovery
then already in progress. 1t has been
long delayed. AS that record moved on
we have seen the continuous weaken
ing of the safeguards of self-govern-
ment by federal Capitalization and
greed for power"
Thus does the reactionary sponsor
for the candidate bundle up the in
EQUITIES of so years of Tory misrult
and place them upon the shoulders Of
Franklin Roosevelt. Two months ahead
of the day he took over the RESPONSE
bilities of national government, says
Hoover, Roosevelt wrecked the coun-
try.
Roosevelt, with sweeping man
date from the people to halt the panic,
"produced the panic" because, for
sooth, the people had no faith in him.
Roosevelt, called upon by a bewildered
people who saw banks tumbling, homes
and farms confiscated for debt, and
millions Of idle men walking the
streets, halted the recovery, "already
begun" by Hoover, Hearst, Mellon,
Sam insult, Charlie Mitchell and Char
lie Dawes and other. distinguished adj
illustrators of the reign of "tooth
and claw. /"
Perhaps the Hoover blunder may be
explained on the theory that the Re
publicans cannot go before the people
and ask to be returned to power, with
out attempting some vindication of
their latest misuse of it, but it is al
most unbelievable that the Board of
Strategy, including Hamilton, would
consent to so monstrous and fantastic
a method of passing the buck.

men sitting around table and hear
