Child's Diet
Includes
Cereal
Sweetening Need
Not Be Added if
Well Cooked
By ANGELO PATRI.

Should the children have sugar
on their morning cereal?"
No. Babies should have their
cereal without sugar, unless the
doctor ordered it. If the cereal
is properly cooked it needs no
sugar. 1t has it's own sweet flavor
to make it delightful for the babies.
There is an art in cooking the
cereal for children. 1t is easy to
learn, and it would be fine for the
little ones if every mother and
nurse and every high school senior
learned it today. All there is to
1t is to put it on the fire and let
it cook and cook and cook, and
keep on cooking after that.
20, you don't need to cook this
cereal more than a few minutes.
It says so on the package" That
is not what it says. really. 1t does
say that it is quick-cooking cereal,
but it does not say that one Is
not to cook it time on end for the
baby. For one should. No matter
what the label says about quick
cooking, cook it long and cook it
slowly if you would have the baby
eat it with delight and a clean
spoon. For his spoon will clean
if the cereal is cooked to his liking!
In the country where cereals are
the main dish for breakfast for
the workingmen it is put in the
pot the night before, brought to a
bubbling, squeaking state of por-
ridgy thickness, covered and set
toward the back of the stove. There
it stays cooking slowly, muttering
to itself all night long, to show up
in the morning a creamy, suave,
smiling, sweetly favored porridge.
A bowl, a spoon and pitcher OF
milk and-blissful breakfast. That
is cereal that is cereal. The chill
dren who eat it are sturdy of limb,
sound of lung, quick of mind, "bonny
BARNS O. Scotland"
Sugar in porridge? How they
would laugh at the softies.
Our children would not ask for
sugar on their cereal if they were
not shown the way to it. Because
our cereals are not cooked. prop
erly we sugar them. The children
follow suit, and by this token spoil
the effect of the cereal.
All children, baby to college senior,
need their cereal. 1t is as essential
to their diet as any other staple food.
Bread takes some of it's function,
but enough remains to make the
cereal necessary. They can have
fresh fruit with it, and milk. Milk
always should go with it. But not
the sugar.
Vary the cereal. No child can
stand having the same cereal day
in and day out. The standard ones
are always good. The cooked ones
are preferable for the younger
children always. AS they grow older
they can add the uncooked ones,
especially in summer. Cold weather
always makes the cooked cereal
welcome.
On summer nights, when appetites
are dulled. chilled cereal in little
molds-cups will do turned out on
glass plate, topped with cut fruit,
makes party of a dreaded ordeal.
Cereal for breakfast every day is the
rule. But do learn how to cook it
the way it deserves to be cooked.
That is the way children like to
eat it.

 Report Read
Juneau Chamber Endorses Statement Opposing
 Refugee Plan

Unanimous approval was voted today by the Juneau Chamber of Commerce to a committee state ment prepared as an answer to the recent report of Under Secretary Harry Slattery regarding Alaska de- velopment and colonization.
 The report, read at today's luncheon meeting by H. L. Faulk- ner, Chairman of the Committee, constitutes a pointed, but not of fensive, criticism of many of the conclusions of Slattery. Its gist is that the Slattery report is based largely on two false premises, one that Alaska has been standing still without important progress for the past 75 years and the other that about all that is needed in the Territory is settlers to pluck dor mant wealth out of the ground.
 Support from Territory
 Endorsement of the efforts of the local committee has been re- ceived from Valdez, Anchorage, Douglas and Fairbanks, in addi- tion to today's enthusiastic en- dorsement by the Juneau Cham Der.

DIPLOMATIC ACTION (By Associated Press

As apprehension increased ln Northern Europe, United States dip- lomatic action was early this morn- ing discussed as a possibility as Fin land waited to hear what expanding Soviet Russia wants of her.
 Official Washington quarters talked of such a course in the event of a crisis between Finland and Russia.
 The Finnish delegation, headed by former Premier Juho Kusti Paasiklvi is in Moscow for vital political and economic talks.
 Presidents Action
 If an outright Baltic conflict threatens, one possibility considered in Washington is that President Roosevelt might issue peace ap- peal to Moscow and Helsinki as he did to the German and Polish heads last August.
 Norway Sweden and Denmark are understood ready to make move to preserve peace in the North.
 Finland Takes Action
 Finland is preparing for the worst by moving the civilians from her Capital City of Helsinki and perfect ing air raid defenses.
 The Finnish newspapers express ed the Governments determination to preserve the Nations neutrality but anxiety is arousing because of the stemming Russian expansion during the past two weeks which have made Estonia, Latvia and Lith- uania virtual Soviet protectorates. Passikivi is expected to return to Helsinki from Moscow after he learns what Russia demands.

DEMANDS ARE EXCESSIVE

MOSCOW, Oct. 12.--United States Ambassador Laurence e Steinhardt called on The Kremlin for a talk in which reliable sources claim, he said Russia is making excessive demands on Finland.
 It is understood, unofficially, that Steinhardt asked Premier and For eign Minister Commissar Molotoft not to aggravate the European war situation by such demands.
 Steinhardt'S visit came only two hours before Finland's special en- voy to Moscow entered Kremlins conference. The conference, 1t IS believed lasted just about one hour.
 It is known here that Finland hoped for American support In warding off Russian demands.

WASHINGTON, Oct 12.- Much of the emergency presidential au- thority about which the Senate is so curious was given the Chief EX- ecutive in the high-pressure days of the bank crises in 1883, although many of his powers trace straight back to the England of long ago.
 From official files made avail able to us by the Congressional Library we have gathered sam ples the Senate itself might have had for the asking. However, the Senate went through the business of adopting a resolution asking the Attorney General to give It con- solidated summary of emergency and other powers of the Presi- dent.

BULLETON-LONDON, Oct. I2.-Prime Minister Chamber lain will give a broadcast on the international situation next Saturday night, according to announcement made tonight.
 LONDON, Oct. 12. = British Prime Minister Chamberlain to- day told Fuehrer Adolf Hitler that he could have peace if he wanted t but 1t must be real settled peace" and not that sort of peace outlined by the German Chancellor in the Reichstag last Friday.
 Replying to HitIer's peace overtures. Prime Minister Chamberlain, in his weekly war report to the House of Com mons, scOrned the uneasy truce which is interrupted by constant alarms and repeated threats
 Chamberlain said the propos- als in HitIer's speech were vague and uncertain and con tain no suggestion for fighting the wrongs done on Czechoslo- vakia and Poland.
 "The German Government alone stands in the way of peace we are determined to secure.' The Prime Minister declared thai lacking convincing proof of defin- ite acts of guarantees of Hitler's will for peace, Great Britain and France must preserve in our duty to the end"
 The Prime Minister said Great Britain could not adopt such basis for peace as proposed by Hitler without forfeiting her honor
 When Prime Minister Chamber lain finished his comparatively brief declaration, Clement Atlee leader of the Labor opposition, spoke in support of the declaration.

'Hardys Ride High
At Columbia

The lrrepressible Hardvs, supple
mented by an OOmphish blond who
supplies siren relief to Andvs un-
sophlstication, carry on their af-
fairs at the Columbia this week. The
vehicle, The Hardys Ride High
which recently did a pleasant fort
night at the Palace. takes the family
to the doors of fabulous wealth.
Their failure to get across the
threshold, thanks to the judges no.
bllity of character, constitutes the
burden of the story which cannot
fail to please Hardy enthusiasts.
This, the sixth of the Hardy series,
introduces the ebullient Andy in
that phase of adolescence which be-
gins to feel a yearning for night
life, cigarettes and flaming femmes.
The latter is injected into the drama
in the form of Virginia Grey, a
persuasive blond, who adds a saucy
touch to the Hardy saga without af-
fecting it's general wholesomeness.
A number of other new faces ap-
pear in the picture, but the major
roles are played by the old cast,
Mickey Rooney. Lewis Stone, Ce-
celia Parker, ct al. with the skill
that has become virtually a tradi-
ton.

ture is one of the better shorts of

ties called ominously while Amer

go on during the night, it seems.

Zanuck does not actually do the

one which proved profitable for Mr..

trait that encompasses every gesture

ments alone would make Rose of

The story from which this screen
drama suspends the gay or sad

written. is the fellow who loves and
loses Miss Faye. He does have the
compensation, however. of stealing
the picture from the other two.
The impact if the word does not
mind being used here of the film
hes not so much in the story, of
course, as in the effect of the old
songs upon the emotions of the
audience. They have wav of

film in which Warner Bros. speak
of some terrifying things going on

In telling a sensational story of

are handled with becoming re-
Straint, the more brutal manifesto

One of the interesting features
OF Confessions of a Nazi Spy" is
that everything and every one, all

by its or his right name. The pro-
ducers have not been a bit Soueam-
