and this varies from three to eight. The twenty books should approxi- mate 100 sheets, which will mean the necessity of 100 photostatic ex- poSureS.
 A Democrat reporter accompanied MesSrs. Hickey, Greer and Fitz- maurice on their journey from City Hall to studio shortly after g o'clock this morning. Each of the three carried a portion of the rec ords, as they jokingly referred to the early hour at which the move was made.
 Reporter Didn't Stay
 The reporter accompanied the three within the studio, but promptly made his exit (by request) when it appeared that the actual work on the books was about to start. MT. Fitmaurice had not re- turned to his office in City Hall, nor had he been home to lunch, at 8 very late hour today.
 It appears that the work of photo stating the records will be made in one clean sweep, requiring the en- tire day. MT. Fit1naurice must re- main with the records as long as they are out of his office. Any move to take the records from the office without the city clerk accompany ing. would have to be by order of Judge Ernest A. Inglis.
 Not So Expensive
 The Democrat, being foreWarned that the work of photostating the records would be given to Henry Gebhardt, queried that individual yesterday on the cost of each print. Apparently the task is not as ex- pensive as might have been con- Sidered.
 MT. Gebhardt, himself apparently unaware that the job was to be brought to his studio, told The Dem ocrat that he could turn out such prints for aobut sixty-five cents each, but admitted that the price might be as high as eighty-five cents each.
 The machine on which the prints will be made is located in the rear of his shop on Leavenworth street. MT. Gebhardt is the official photographer for Coroner John T. Monzani.
 Audit Not Completed
 The audit of the Kingsley work CTS has been completed to December 1, 1897, and the records for the re- mainder of the year will be neces- Sary before the audit can be actually completed.
 Judge Inglis decision on whether or not to return the records to Wa terbury will be highly important. Should he refuse to allow the return of the books, he may suggest that the Kingsley auditors transfer their field of activity to Hartford, just as the Griffenhagen associates have been forced to do.
 Records Seized
 The records were seized by County Detective Hickey. acting by author ity of a court order from Judge Ing lis. Such an order would be neces- sary to effect the release of the books from special Prosecutor A. corn's possession.
 Completed photostats of the elec- tion records will be taken to the Hartford headquarters of the inve2s tigators for keen scrutiny. It is eX- pected that the survey will be to determine if there were any illegal tactics reverted to in the past elec- tion, which was so closely contested, and which was only settled by court action.

tions, the Essen National zeitune was readmitted to distribution ir Austria. This newspaper, persona organ of Field Marshal Hermann Goering of Germany, was seized from Vienna stands yesterday be- cause of its remarkS on the Austrian German situation. The newspaper has been somewhat ranker than others as to German interest In Austria.
 About 70 more prisoners affected by the amnesty were freed in Vienna this morning. Crowds at prison gates were larger than those yeSter- day but it was indicated that Nazis themselves had orders to maintain the Strictest discipline and permit TO demonstrations in their honor. Re- leases were slow, partly because doc umentS were lacking ill many cases.
 Britain Is Waiting
 London, Feb. 18.-(UP).-Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden told the house of commons today that he was unable to give further informa- tion on the Austrian situation.
 T have at present no informa- tion to add to that gave the house yesterday regarding the question Of Austria" Eden said. "The house will be aware of the interest his ma- jesty's government have always talk en and will continue to take in the Austrian question not only on its own account but in relation to central Europe as whole.
 "They are therefore watching the situation closely
 Eden lad hoped to see Dr. Ernst Woermann, German charge d'af- faireS this morning and obtain in- formation on the basis of which he could make a statement to the house and to the country.

city, caused 1t to form In pockets prevented it from being absorbed in the atmosphere. State police took every precaution to avoid an ex- plosion. They had surrounded the town, turned back persons without business, and warned those they ad- mitted not to strike matches or cause sparks.
 25 Bodies Recovered A tentative death list compiled by the United Press showed that 25 bodies had been actually recovered And rescue workers had not reached the more remote areas where the tornado struck.
 The tornado came while this mushroom oil town was browsing between shifts of workers. Two hours later it would have caught hundreds of men gathered around their head quarters in supply row" where the funnel-like cloud first swooped down and wrecked its worst havoc. Mid night crews were to have relieved the first watch that started at p. m.
 The twister hit the south end of the one paved streets around which the town is built. It tore up three blocks of closely set warehouses in one Swoop, then bounce toward the main part of town. Some of the warehouses had been inhabited by indigents and watchmen were on duty in all of them.
 Hits Shacks of Squatters
 Moving, northward, it struck next along a mile and a half of Sparsely settled area, occupied mostly by trailer houses and squatters' shacks. Within 300 yards of the main busi- ness district, it listed back into the sky, to descend again beyond the town, in the surrounding Piney woods. It bounced back to strike an oil camp five miles north of town and farther on at Capps City, in Miller county, Arkansas, from where there were only meager re- ports to indicate what damage it caused.
 Here, the whirling wind caught men at work, families in their homes and children in their beds, without a moments warning. The town was immediately plunged in darkness as the power plant and power lines were destroyed.
 Calls for Help
 Calls for help were sent to Vivian, Atlanta and Shreveport. There were no ambulances and few doctors available immediately and the in- jured were loaded into cars and talk en to those towns. Many died on the way. Those found dead were left here for several hours while the

BUILD SIDEWALK
 FOR WEDDING

Nahant, Mass, Feb. '18.-(UP)- Orders were issued today busting four of 30 WPA workers engaged in the construction of 8 sidewalk be- tween the summer home of Miss Anne Lindsay Clark and the church where in June she will wed Presi- dent Roosevelt's son John.
 Cecil B. Hall, state director of the WPA division of opera tions, is- sued the busters after James J. Dev- ereauX, Nahant WPA administrator, had protested that the four were residents of nearby Swampscott whereas Nahant had 36 idle men eligible for WPA employment.
 The sidewalk is part of federal ly sponsored $13,000 town sidewalk project.

AWBERRIES
ALL YEAR AROUND
How To Have Them BY Can
ming After Season
Has Passed

There are indeed few Of us who
do not relish the flavor of straw
berries. If you desire to enjoy
its flavor long after the season
has passed, try canning strawber-
ries. 1t will be necessary to Sc
lect the strawberry while it is
fresh and delicate in flavor and
treat it gently. Wash it we'll but
do not leave the berry crushed or
bruised. Use the following re-
,cipe and berries will remain whole
and plump:
Strawberries: (Will not float)-
Half pound sugar, pounds straw
berries; 1 cup strawberry juice;
boil together sugar and straw
berry juice; coll and add the
whole strawberry, then boil five
minutes; cover the vessel and set
aside overnight; next morning
pack into clean jars, filling to
within half-inch of top. Process
in water bath for Is minutes. The
strawberry juice may be obtained
by crushing a few "cul1s' or heat
ing them and straining the juice.
In spite of all that is said about
selection of the product, there is
another factor entering into sue
cessfuI canning and that is the
jar and cap. The jar and cap

used must make an alright seal.
Examine sealing edge of the jar
to see that it is free from hicks,
cracks and sharp edges, that
would prevent d seal. 1t is i'm
9ortant to correctly handle the
lar cap. When using the self
sealing cap place lid on jar with
sealing composition next to glass
and screw the band firmly tight.
This cap requires no further
tightening when processing is
complete thus eliminating handl-
ing of hot jar to seal it.
Strawberry Preserves: One pint
strawberries (after steaming): 1
pint sugar. Boil together for 10
minutes. Remove from fire and
cool. Add another pint of straw
berries and another pint of sugar.
Boil ten minutes more. Pour into
sterilized jars and seal.

FROM THE MAN WHO ELECTED BYRNEs

The following letter is from Leon W. Harris OF

cit is rather pathetic that Harry Hopkins and
Jimmy Roosevelt, two of the New Deal Bigwigs',
have for the past little while been really 'Wearin
themselves out about the Iowa election, Evidently
though the several billion dollar appropriation bill
for relief did not get through congress quite IN
time to help them in the Iowa struggle. Some OF
these One Hundred CPer) Centers, or as they might
very appropriately be called, Dollar men, who are
seeking election might take warning from this &C
ton of the Iowa voters.
Zone thing this Iowa election did reveal is, that
in some states there remain enough honest voters
to keep the elections from being bought and paid
for by money taken from the pockets of the tax
payers. If those in high governmental authority
were anxious to help humanity they are TO
build up strong political organization there could
be some sympathy for a portion of the spending
that has been and is going on by the government
But when realize that the object of the spend
ing spree has been to 'Tammanyize' the whole
country, in which by the way they have succeeded
