Murphy Comment Not Meant
As Reflection on Garner

Attorney General Murphy in
tended no reflection on the Vice
President when he described John
L. Lewis denunciation of Mr.. Gar
ner as too eloquent for comment, "
he hastened to explain in a formal
statement late yesterday.
Mr.. Murphy, a former Governor
of Michigan, made the statement
at an afternoon press conference. He
was asked to comment on the Lewis
description of Mr.. Garner as a
labor batting, whisky drinking,
poker playing evil old man." but said
he had not read 1t.
A reporter read it, and Mr.. Muir
ply, leaning forward on his desk,
asked him to read it over again.
Mr.. Murphy laughed heartily, say
ing, That is too eloquent for COM
ment. I have no comment"
Praises Garner.
Later. he said: THE Vice Presi-
dent is great American. I have
only respect for him.
Concerning the Attorney Generals
remarks at the press conference, the
Justice Department issued this for
NAL statement:
AT the time the Attorney General
was questioned there was consid-
cradle noise and the Attorney Gen.
eral stated that he did not know
the question directed to him directly
concerned the Vice President.
ut was his impression that the
story the interrogation was reading
to him concerned the vice presiden-
tial candidates in general and he
did not hear the name of Vice
President Garner mentioned"
The matter came up in connec-
ton with a discussion of political
rumors. A reporter asked the At
torney General about a report he
may be a candidate for Vice Presi-
dent$
Not Considering Office.
Mr.. Murphy answered emphati-
cally: Il am not giving any con-
sideration to any other office"
He added that men in public office
seeking other of1ces are apt to "slur"
their jobs.
He said he thought too much at
tention is being given to PERSONAL
tiles and too little to issues and pro-
grams. He deplored the lack of
efforts to master support for "a
great program Of social and eco
nomic betterment-such as the
Roosevelt program Of the past six
years."

In major test on the lending
measure last night the Senate voted,
40 to 38, against proposal by Sen
ator Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia to
strike out $500,OO0 600 provision

SquaIus Survivors
Denied Extra Paw
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The SO men who had the good
fortune to escape from the sunken
submarine Squalus ran into a bit of
tough luck today in the paymaster's
office.
Navy rules provide an extra al
lowance for men on submarine duty.
but the General Accounting Office
held that these same rules forbid
such allowances to men not on regu-
lar duty.
Since the Squalus sank May %, it
was held, the survivors obviously
could not have been on the assigned
duty for the last two months.
The extra submarine pay thus
lost amounts to from S. to $50 a
month for enlisted men and 25 per
cent Of the salaries of officers.

2. Amendments by Representative
Barden, Democrat, of North Caro-
lima, which, in addition to these
changes, would exempt workers
handling and processing agricultural
products off the farm. Administra-

Surplus Cotton Sale
Abroad al Low Price
Voted by Senate Unit
175,000 BoIes Would Go
To French and Swiss
For War Reserves
b the Associated Press.

b the Associated Press.
Legislation to permit the cash sale
OF surplus cotton to foreign govern
ments at less than world prices
was speedily approved today by the
Senate Banking Committee.
Senator Byrnes, Democrat. Of
South Carolina, who announced yes
terday that this Government would
sell 175;OO0 bales to France and
Switzerland, won committee ap-
proval of the bill, which requires
that the cotton be held off markets
for five years as military reserve.
Senator Byrnes said foreign gov
ernments would pay the world price,
less estimated storage charges Of 18
months, or about $6 bale on cotton.
The committee action today fol-
lowed charge yesterday by Senator
George, Democrat, of Georgia that
the Government nearly lost its
shirt" in the recent exchange of
100000 bales of American cotton for
British rubber.
Senator George credited the
"shrewd British" with out-trading
the United States and then launched
into a critical attack on Secretary
Wallace's program to subsidize ex-
ports of American cotton at $3.50
4 bale, or IL cents pound.
The Georgia Senator blamed Mr..
Wallace's crop restriction and loan
program for the sharp decline in
American exports this season and
contended the subsidy was not need
ed to increase exports.
Senator Byrnes told reporters that
both the British barter program
and cash sales to France and Switz-
erland were moves to reduce the
Government-held surplus without
affecting world cotton market prices.
He also disclosed that negotiations
are under way for an additional
cash sale of cotton to an unnamed
country.
In castigating the British barter
transaction already approved by
Congress Senator George said this
sountry received "the minimum cost
Of production" for cotton while a
British and Dutch cartel" received
several times the cost of producing
the rubber.

Lewis outburst would help Mr..
Garner politically.
'It will be worth millions of votes
to the Vice President if he is can
didate for Office in 1940," asserted
Senator Burke, Democrat, of Ne
braska. 1T should assure him his
election"
Mr.. Garner declined to comment
on Mr.. Lewis attack. When friends
wanted to reply on the Senate floor,
he was reported to have requested
them not to do so. Senator Shep-
pard, Democrat, of Texas, told re-
porters:
II have no knowledge as to what
Mr.. Garner has done or not done as
to labor legislation. but I do know
that Mr.. Lewis is entirely under mis-
apprehension as to Mr.. Garner's per-
sonal habits"
The House gave Mr.. Garner a tu-
multuous ovation late yesterday
when the Texas delegation formally
expressed its deep resentment and
indignation at this unwarranted
and unjustified attack"
Nearly all those present applauded,
and many rose and cheered as Rep
resentative Luther A. Johnson, Dem
ocrat, of Texas read a resolution
which the Texans had adopted COM
mending Mr.. Garner.

Chairman Norton, Democrat, OF
New Jersey of the Labor Committee.
termed Mr.. Lewis remarks in very
bad taste" and said she regretted he
had chosen the opportunity he did to
make the attack.
Representative Ramspeck, Demo-
crat, of Georgia, second ranking ma
jority member of the committee, ex-
pressed belief his colleagues had
been "too f1abbergasted" to attempt
to halt Mr.. Lewis denunciation.
Legislators seeking a reason for
Mr.. Lewis sensational utterances
recalled widely circulated reports
that Mr.. Garner had attempted to
induce President Roosevelt to inter-
vene against the sit-down strikes In
1887 in which G. I. o. unions were
prominent.
Well-informed labor sources said
they looked for Mr.. Lewis to make
his next political move this fall or
next winter at the national conven-
ton of labor's Nom Partisan League,
which he heads. The league is re-
ported to be shaping a program on
which to make fight for Demo-
cratic National Convention delegates
favoring its policies.
The action of the House Labor and
Rules Committees in quickly passing
along wage-hour amendments was
regarded by many legislators as a
rebuff to Mr.. Lewis for his remarks.

1t also emphasized the sharp con-
flict between the two committees.
Labor committeeman denounced the

in agreeing to let the House vote
on legislation which the Labor Com
mittee had not approved. Earlier,
Representative Cox, Democrat, Of
Georgia of the Rules Committee,
described as "just a stall" the labor
units attempts to reach a compro-
mise.
Indications were none of the
amendments would reach the House
floor until next week.
The three sets of amendments
which the Rules Committee submit
ted to the House are:

yesterday that Aled Davies, whom

Mr.. Keller said Mr.. Davies had
an office in downtown Washington
'but he seems to carry on most of

1t seems to me that a lobbyist who

cause besides being fine source
Of protein, eggs rank next to milk

Most of us feel that meat makes
the meal. And it cannot be de-
MED that it's savory extractives
give it a most appetizing and in
triguing flavor. But there are a
number of other foods which con-
tain proteins of equal biological
value. Furthermore, nutritiOnists
hold that it is desirable to obtain
protein from a number of different
sources. That is because different
protein foods contain varying
amounts of different amino acids !;
and by eating a variety of protein
foods, we can best obtain a wide
assortment of these building
stones" of the body.

For MeatIess Meals

Fish comes to mind, first of all,
as a main dish for the meal that
does not include meat. For those
who are far from the source of
supply of fresh-caught fish, there
are the quick-frozen varieties, the
dried and sailed fish, such as fin
nan haddie, shredded Goldfish and
block cod, and q types of canned
fish and shell fish.
Canned salmon is one of the
least expensive of all protein
foods. And so many things can
be said in its favor that one ma
tionally known food authority re-
ferred to it as the most nutritious
animal food that could be had for
children over six. 1t is notable

Don't Overlook Nuts and legumes
Legumes are one group of vege-
tables which are high in energy
values. They also contain protein
which is suitable for repairing
WORKOUT body tissue. Dried
beans, peas and lentils may there
fore be used as main dish at
Lenten meals, replacing both
meat and potatoes. There are
many varieties of ready-cooked
beans on the market, packed in
both glass and tin. And dried
lima beans are particularly we'll
suited to being made into GRO
quotes, patties, loaves, chowders
and ragouts.
Nuts are another possibility for
Lenten meals that should be con-
sidered by every homemaker.
They, too, can be used for GRO
quotes and nut loaves, as well
as souff1es and casserole combi-
nations. Nuts can be combined
with vegetables for a main-course
dish with fruit for dessert.
In the form of nut buffers, they
make a nourishing spread for

What TO Eat During Lent?
By c. HOUSTON GOUDISS

CLERGYMAN friend of mine remarked that in his
opinion Lent lasts far too long He had reference be-
lieve, the fact that in swfmovng people might
be apt to keep Lent faithfully, if it terminated in
shorter period than 40 days.
Many homemakers, I feel sure, would echo his sen-
but for rather different reason, Numbers of them
know find the weeks of Lent the troublesome of the
