Do You
Know

Beans aren't "just beans when
you really know them and take time
10 discover the countless different
aways In which different varieties
may be prepared, For example,
there are
Green beans and yellow wax
beans, limas and calico beans,
Englich broad beans and several
other varieties among the beans
that are delicious when fresh.
Kidney beans, navy and soy
beans, limas, pinto, black or tur-
tie beans and marrows are per.
haps the most widely used dried
beans.
And did you know, by the way,
that the best cooking method for
fresh limas Is TO steam them or
cook them In o covered kettle
with Just enough water to prevent
burningp
Died beans should be cooked
for eight to IL hours TO bring out
their best fiavorg. Or cook them
for three or four hours, then fin
ish later. This time can be con.
siderahly shortened by soaking
dried beans over night, but In any
event, they require long, slow,
even cooking.
Black bean soup Is hearty dish
we'll liked for family meals. Cook
together slowly for - hours one
pint black beans. two quarts
water, q small ham hook or bone,
six cloves, four peppercorns, two me-
dium-sized onions. Rub through a
colander or sieve. reheat, garnish
with small dice Of the ham and

REFUGEE NOW IN U.S..
Pledge Support to Evian Plan
for Refugees.

NEW YORK.-The support of the
American League for Peace and
Democracy for the work of the Evian
Conference is pledged in a statement
to President Roosevelt and in the
same message the adoption of a more
liberal policy is urged toward politi-
cal and religious refugees now in
this country and against whom de-
%portation proceedings are pending,
thus denying the right of asylum
which the Evian Conference was de-
signed to broaden.
The statement in part follows:
I'VE look forward and hope to
have your support for an extending
and broadening of the United States
immigration Laws to permit the
entry of a larger number of refugees
in keeping with our traditions Of
asylum and we call your attention
to restrictions now being imposed by
the United States Department Of
Labor which is continuing to enforce
the policy which frequently denie:
asylum to refugees who have sue
ceeded in escaping with their lives
from their own countries and whC
have reached our shores.
1--WE draw your attention particu.
larly to the cases of Hans Mueller
20-year-old anti-Nazi refugee whC
fled Germany after six months
service in the Nazi army; Walter
Richter, a former legal resident o.
the U. S. who left to join the Inter.
national Brigade and was wounded
three times while fighting to defenC
Spanish democracy and who hai
been denied readmission and face
return to Nazi Germany; Peter Bru
noldi, 53-year-old Italian who flee
persecution in his homeland in 1921
and has been ordered to leave thl
United States or be deported t,
Fascist Italy.
I'VE must go before the liberty
loving peoples of the world will
clean hands and with proof that W,
are really sincere in our determine
ton to aid in giving asylum to refu
gees from religious and politica
oppression.
I'VE believe that a more liberia
Interpretation in line with our tradi
tons is necessary on the part of tn,
Department of Labor.
1--WE pledge the fullest support t,
the efforts of the American com
mittee in its work with the new
inter-governmental committee ant
in its work in this country in aiding
refugees who come here. The Ameri
can League is today preparing t,
accept funds for the relief of refu
gees from Austria. These funds will
be turned over in toto to the com
mittee appointed by you and headed
by Mr.. Myron c. Taylor"

LIQUOR
RETAILERS COOPERATE
AGAINST AB USES

A Code of Practice, pledging re-
tailers ito cooperate with authorities
in stamping out conditions which
offend the public conscience" was
adopted by the 200 delegates attend
ing the first annual convention of
the Montana Licensed Liquor Deal
ers Association at Helena recently.
Immediate projection of the Code
throughout the state was begun by
President-elect w. c. (Bil1.. Endress
of Helena and Secretary Joel B."
st. Clair of Great Falls.
The Code is one of the most signi-
ficant developments of decency since
Repeal. 1t marks the united action
on the part of the legitimate business
men in the industry against the boot
logger and evildoer.
This action on the part of the
Montana Licensed Liquor Dealers
followed an address by a United
Brewers Industrial Foundation rep
resentative, Mr.. L. S. Kelley, who
spoke on "Public Opinion and True
Temperance" and told of the move
ment throughout the nation to bring
about self-regulation within the in
dustry and to align it with public
opinion. The Foundation has been
instrumental in projecting the Brew
ers' Code of Practice and in advising
with the officers of many state retail
associations in the drafting of codes
similar to that adopted by Montana.
Officers of the Montana Licensed
Liquor Dealers elected at the recent
convention are: W. C. Endress, Hell
ena, president; F. J.. Riley, Butte, vice
president; Joel B. st. Clair, Great
Falls, secretary; and Jack Higgins,
Helena, treasurer. Directors chosen
were: Mike Twohey, Bozeman; Will
liam Steinbrenner, Jr., Missoula;
Henry Twohey, Bozeman; Frank
Rogers, Billings; Curtis Breede, Glas-
gov; Thomas Hanrahan, Miles City;
and Paul j.. Hagan, Glendive.

Lord, hear this sincere prayer from
me:
Let me grow faultless like a tree.
Let there be that about my face
To point men skyward to Thy grace.
Let my life be fresh and clean
Like the trees new budding green.
Let my love like branches spread
To bear good fruit for others bread.
Let me grow tall and straight and
whole
Like the trees strong, upright soul,
AS mating robins love to come
To make the leafy boughs their
home,
May many find my heart a nest
OF sheltering peace and happy rest.
Give me to add to gladness' store,
AS leaves make soft the forest floor.
Each stormy passion of the land
And heat of scorching hate I'd stand,
Firm-fixed with deepening roots OF
truth
By lessons which I learned in youth.
When grief weaves shadows like a
shroud,
I'd point aloft to rainbow cloud.
Lord, teach me now the ancient good
Of Thy great forest brotherhood!

KNEES AGAIN BECOME
PUBLIC PROPERTY

Not that It s going to have any effect
but we desire TO register a purely mascu-
line protest against the latest repetition
of history in this matter of feminine
styles.
The receding hem of womens skirts
once again has brought feminine knees
into public gaze To be quite candid
here in our little circle, we must unwill-
ingly admit that not all feminine knees
are beautiful. Parenthetically : before
someone else says tive gladly admit
that moi any masculine knees are beau
tiful, but that Is beside the point.
But this thing goes even deeper than
beauty, which is only skin deep anyway.
1t goes clear down TO the grass roots
which, by the way, have been removed
so far from the skirt hens lately that
il would take mighty strong stand of
wheat to hide some blushing beauty's
knock-knees. It strikes at the very foun-
dations Of society, because it gives the
masculine half of the race very decided
inferioritY complex.
All these years we've cherished the
illusion that women dressed to please
men. But we happen To know that only
about five per cent of the masculine
population of this community approves
of the short skirt fashion-and yet the
women go blithely on shipping off hems.
When you shatter an illusion like that,
it takes centuries to bring the men back
to their own inflated opinions of them
selves. And the men have to have some
thing to anchor their self-esteem while
they go on making the money with which
their wives buy short skirts.
Besides that, its rather embarrassing
TO inquire about her grades in school of
some little thing TO whom you've just
been introduced-and then find out that
she is the mother of five children. It's
anti-social-that's what it is.

SELF-CENSORSHIP
IN BRITISH PRESS
tPhiladeluhia Ledger


The famed "self-censorship of the British
press is about to be put TO a crucial test. Chan
ceor Hitler has intimated that there is little
prospect OF an Anglo-German understanding
if during the negotiations. the anti-NaZ news
papers in Great Britain insist on raising con-
tnual rumpus. In his speech on February
20 he laid stress on the idea that the British
Government could restrain the press II II really
wanted 10 do il.
The British Government would not dare open
" TO apply even the mildest sort of censorship.
But enough has been said recently in the House
OF Commons to suggest that there are suspl-
cions that the government is bringing quiet
pressure to bear on the newspapers.
Whether this is true or not, Prime Minister
Chamberlain obviously hopes that the press
comment will keep within bounds while the mat
ter of shaking hands with dictatorship is eX-
plored. He believes that peace or war in Europe
IS at stake.
He also knows That the fate OF The National
Government is III the balance The British are
looking forward TO an election in the Fall. II
negotiations with Germany and Italy succeed,
will be able to point to that success. If they
he at least did his best
considerable segment of the British press
is VIGOROUSLY pro-Nazi. That segment will doubt
less gladly cooperate with the Government.
Unpopular as the negotiations with the Dictator
powers may be, craftsmanship by the news
papers is likely to create. during the appreciable
future the impression that Great Britain Is
complying with Chancellor Hitlers demands.

COLD WATER ON
BAJA CALIFORNIA PLAN

1t would be a Wonderful tnlng Tor the
United States, and for Imperial Valley
especially, if this country could take
over the territory of Baja California.
1t would be grand-but it probably
won't happen.
No doubt the peninsula would be vi
tal factor in self defense if this country
ever went to war on this continent. 1t is
equally certain that, in the hands Of an
enemy. it would be a vital weakness. 1t
is true too that this country could de-
velop Baia California = agriculturaiiy
and as tourist attraction-far more
in ten years than Mexico will in hum
dred years.
1t is true that the people living there
would be better off from an economic
standpoint.
The trouble is they would rather re-
main MeXicans and be worse off than be-
come citizens of the United States and
be better off. And you can't blame them:
We rather imagine that the people OF
Imperial Valley would object strenuous
" if the valley were sold to Mexico. Or
the people of Washington would object
equally as strenuously if their state were
sold to Canada. Even if they got hun
dred dollars apiece when the. deal vert
through.
Those who so cheerfully advocate
three-cornered trade whereby Uncle Sam
would write off Britain's war debts,
Britain would give Mexico the crown
colony of British Honduras, and Mexico
would give Uncle Sam Baja California,
NAV have overlooked the fact that the
average Mexican is just as proud of be-
ing Mexican as the average American"
or citizen Of the United States-is of
being an American.
We would favor the acquisition of
Baia California as a part of this coun-
try if we thought it could be done. That
il can remains to be proved.
