SENATE POLL ON
 SUPREME COURT
(continued from Page D

(ConClnueQ rom rage U position leader, 1t will be a distinct advantage to the opponents of the measure in the senate. It will in- huence a large number of uncom- mitted senators who must cast the deciding votes."
 Lonergan, Maloney Against
 Two previously uncommAted serl- ators = Augustine Lonergan, d., Conn, and Francis T. Maloney, d., Conn.-moved to the opposition ranks. Burke announced they agreed to address mass meetings in Con- necticut in collaboration with foes of the bill.
 Burke and Maloney will speak at New Haven, Lonergan and Senator Josiah Bailey, d., N. C., at Hartford on April 30. Addition of the Con- necticut senators would bring the number of senators publicly com- mitted against the bill to approxi- mately 40 compared with 35 public ly committed for the measure.
 The polI~of the judiciary commit tee showed that Senator Pat Mo- Carran, d., Nev., probably would cast the deciding vote when the group completes private considera- ton of the bill in two or three weeks.
 Nine Surely Against It
 Nine members of the committee, including two who have not public ly announced their position definite ly said they would vote against the measure. Six votes were publicly pledged in support of the bill and two others were generally counted as pro-administration. McCarran's position was not predicted by either side. The committee lineup prompt ed some democratic senators to urge that the president agree to a com- promise before the measure is re. ported to the senate.
 "If the president gave any indi- cation of being willing to comprom- ise," one democratic senator said, 'he could easily get majority in the judiciary committee for any rea- sonable compromise and the meas ure would be passed by the senate without delay and with the support of from 65 to 75 senators"
 Compromises Proposed
 Among the compromises proposed were:
 Reduction of the number of addi- tional justices from six to two.
 Limitation of the increase of members of the court to one or two a year.
 Provision for the number of jus- tices to huctuate between nine and IS, depending upon regularity of re- tirement of the justices at 70 years of age.
 Abandonment of the present pro- posal in favor of the Norris plan re- quiring two-thirds vote of the su- preme court to invalidate an act of congress.
 Impressed by Smith
 Some democratic members of the committee appeared to have been by the argument of the closing opposition witness, J. Francis Smith, democratic state chairman of Connecticut.
 Smith sharply criticized Demo- cratic National Chairman James A. Farley and Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes for attempting to whip party forces into line behind the bill.
 He said the measure was 8 grave threat to liberalism, to the demo- cratic party as an advocate of lib- eralism and to the president. He asserted that 1t was almost certain, if passed, to result in a split in party ranks that might never be healed.

in saying that J. Francis Smith in speaking before the senate judi ciary committee in Washington on the presidents court plan did not act or claim to act as spokesman for the state central committee or the democratic party of Connecticut.
 T am a member of the state cen- tral committee and know this matter has not been brought to its attention"
 Was Big Surprise
 Smiths appearance before the committee came as a complete sur- prise to Connecticut democratic leaders.
 U. s. Senator Josiah Bailey, dem- ocrat. North Carolina, will be the principal speaker at the mass meet ing at Bushnell hall. U. s. Senator David I. Walsh, democrat. Massa- chusetts. also was expected and in- vitations were being sent to other national leaders opposed to the court plan.
 Spellacy was named chairman.
 Passing of the supreme court re- organization bill," he said, would mean a loss of liberty. In this case we would certainly be giving up our rights for less than the prover- bial mess Of pottage'."
 Colonel Hewes will take to the ra- dio this week to create enthusiasm for the meeting. he said.
 In addition to Governor Gross, personal invitations have been sent out to Supreme Court Chief Justice William N. Maltbie, associate jus- tiees of the supreme court, superior court and common pleas judges.
 Prominent republicans also were ca she eltizens' committee.

Your Children
.RARRNFs'
By Olive Roberts Barton

What does too much attention do to children? Plenty, if I am asked
 If adults were given half as much attention as most children get, they would be bothered to death.
 Naturally, little folk in their teI1- der year, need a great deal of look ing after, but beyond this, every child needs some freedom.
 As for "self expression, the term that almost wrecked the righ- teous, and ruined more youngsters than 1t helpd, I renounce 1t as a creed. For any child to do what he wants any and all the time is fatal to discipline and gets nowhere. But he also needs to feel that he can act without constant supervision and a preconceived idea on his par- ent's part, of what he should ale ways be doing.
 For some children this relief is so needed that they stay away from home. It also accounts for much of the misbehavior that takes place the instant they are out of ear shot.
 Supervision Can Be Nagging
 Children are people and react like people. If we really are interested in the viewpoint of Q child, all we have to do is to examine ourselves. Nothing irritates us, or so discour- ages us, as to have some one person perpetually dictating our rnove- lnent. The feeling of freedom to a certain degree is every mans right. The pursuit of happiness, that Is 1t.
 "Wear your red socks," says John- ny's mother when he goes up to get dressed. Well, he intended to wear them anyway, but now he suddenly changes his mind and decides for some reason they are hateful. And when he protests, which is natural enough, he is called contrary and defiant. Being anticipated in every move gals him socetimes to mad ness, yet he has no escape.
 It IS natural for mothers to re- peat what Q child already knows, certain warnings about danger and reminders of manners. "Precept up- on precept and word with word'' 1eaVeS Qhlly uupISSSlULl dIlu CHe child does profit by reminder, but when the glib phrase leaves the tongue too frequently and becomes Q bromide to the nearer, then al- most any child is justified in re- bellion.
 Experience Best Teacher
 Let children make their mistakes. Let them learn some things by ex- perience. Let them forge ahead on their own power without our walk ing the track ahead to flag the way. Over protection, like over oppres- sion, can either break spirit or bottle 1t up for future explosion. The rys- terious vajor of wanting to do things occasionally in ones own way, must either be allowed to escape through 6 sefety valve now and then, or get tighter and thicker, SO that one day there is 2 real blow of. This is better avoided.

EARLY REMOVAL OF CATARACT
 There is a good deal of nisun- derstanding evident in the popular conception of cataract and its treat ment. fear I have unwittingly added to the confusion by print ing in this column two or three years ago the contribution of reader who declared that some relative had been cured by the homeIy expedient of keeping the eyes poulticed several hours a day with freshly grated carrot - the closed eyes, of course. published the readers statement because I thought 1t could do no harm. still doubt that it can do any good in cataract. I have never had any word from anybody to indicate that 1t has had any effect.
 I do not believe there is a cure for cataract, except surgical re- moval of the opaque lens, by the ordinary operation for cataract. One common misunderstanding is that cataract is a kind of film or skin or membrane that grows over the eye or over the sight. It is not a growth at all, but gradual cloud- ing and ultimate opacity of the crystalline lens within the eyeball Once the crystalline lens has be- come clouded or opaque, there is no known remedy to restore 1t to its former clearness.
 We do not know the specific cause of cataract. It may occur in infancy, childhood or old age. One form, congenital cataract, seems to be inherited. Tn animals diet lack ing vitamin G will produce cata- ract; but restoration of vitamin c to the diet of such animals will not cure the cataract. Once cataract has developed, 1t is a permanent condition. However, that should not deter any one from seeing to 1t that the diet contains ample vitanin c. No time to stop here to tell what foods contain vitamin c. For a dime and a stamped envelope bear ing your address you can learn all about that from the booklet "Vic- tuals and Vite"-that Is, if your re- quest reaches me.
 Formerly good deal of emphasis was laid on the importance or de- sirability of waiting for cataract to "ripen" before resorting to surgery That's antiquated practice now, Competent oculists today operate as soon as the vision in the better eye is so diminished that the patient can no longer read or get about in safety.
 The operation, of course, is pain less. The patient has little or noth- ing to lose in the event the opera

ton proves a failure; but comfort able sight to gain if 1t proves as successful as such operations almost invariably are today. So we need not waste much sympathy on vic- timse of cataract who ohstinately and unreasonably go nearly blind and become unnecessarily burden some to their families or Friends or unwarranted fears of proper sur- gical treatment.

Green peppers are thriving this year. The crops are far better than in many years and that means low prices for the family table. Com bine them chopped with pineapple and cabbage and you have some thing good. Or this also makes fine salad combinations with shred ded carrots and cabbage. Or serve them whole, raw and cold, stuffed with cream cheese and nuts, or cream cheese and minced onion and celery. Chill them for several hours when stuffed like this, then with a sharp knife, slice them and gar- 1ish a cold meat platter with these stuffed pepper rings.
 Vitamins A and c are not always plentiful in American diets. Watch your vitamins now that winter is on the way toward us. Serve peppers frequently, for they are rich in both these important vitamins. How does this sound?
 Raw Pepper Relish
 One cu0 finely chopped green pepper, 1 cup finely chopped red pepper, 1 cup vinegar, small onion, chopped, tablespoons sugar, 1-2 teaspoon salt.
 Bring vinegar to boil, add sugar and salt. Pour this over the mixed vegetables. Stand several hours be- fore serving. Will keep for about 2 weeks if placed in tightly covered jar and kept in a cold place.
 The Bureau of Home Economics recommends this method of pre- serving peppers for winter use if you live far from markets where pep pers are available all winter.
 .~ Preserved Peppers Stuffed
 With Cabbage
 Twelve sweet green peppers, brine made of cup salt to gallon water, 2 quarts cabbage, 4 sweet peppers, preferably red, salt, 1 fablespoons white mustard seed, tablespoons celery seed, chopped oht pepper, 1-2 cup sugar, vinegar. Remove stems and seeds from 12 sweet geren peppers. Soak over night in brine. Chop separately 2 quarts cabbage and sweet peppers. Add tablespoon salt to each of the chopped vegetables and stand over night. Drain. Mix with all the other ingredients - mustard seed, celery seed, chopped hot pepper, and sugar. Then drain the 12 whole peppers and stuff with this mixture. Pack in fruit jars, cover with hot vinegar ard seal
