MAYBE it's an outing you want
1V1 next Sunday, or help with the
curtains.
Whatever you wish from your
family, a special Peach Cake for
dinner will help win it. For right
hand aid on this dessert, try the
new self-rising flour now on the
market. The new product has lots
of advantages over the old self-rising
flour, because action is slowed so
that by the time your cake is mixed,
the baking powder is only starting
to work. Thus, you lose none of
the "risin' power.
Here IS the recipe to try with the
new flour:
Peach Cake.
Cream tablespoons or a scant
" cup fat. Add 70 cup sugar. Cream
until sugar has dissolved. Add /
egg and stir in thoroughly edo not
beat). Add II cup milk and IL cups
self-rising flour alternately. Add l
teaspoon extract. Pour into a
creased and Toured cake pan, and
bake in moderate oven $3.50 degrees
F) about 80 minutes. Whip l pint
whipping cream and add IA cup sug-
ar. Split the cake. Spread lower
half with cup crushed peaches and
half the whipping cream. Add top
layer, and pile with another cup Of
crushed peaches and remaining
cream. Garnish with peach slices.
Composite Photography
There probably were earlier ex-
periments of composite and trick
photography. but the most notable
examples appeared after the assas-
sination of President Lincoln. There
was great demand for his pictures,
but there was none showing him in
the heroic postures which the Amer
lean people wanted. Earlier states
men had been painted in such poses.
So photographers took pictures Of
the posed, draped figures. of such
men as John C. Calhoun and Henry
Clay and superimposed the head of
Lincoln. Currier & Ives had issued
a Autograph showing Lincoln's
deathbed scene with Vice President
Andrew johnson present. After
ward, when Johnson became unpop-
u1ar and was impeached, the head
of General HalIeck was substituted
for Johnson's.

And What
They Do
MorshoII Dimoek,
Slotted for N. l. R. B.,
Is an Ex-Professor
BY LEMUEL F. PARTON.

Marshall E. Dimock, now slated.
according to report, for appoint
ment to the National Labor Rela-
tions Board, got along famously
with both factions Of labor until
last winter when he, together with
Oscar Chapman, Assistant Secretary
Of the Interior, and Norman Littell,
Assistant Attorney General, started
to organize that convention of lib
erals to be held IN Salt Lake City.
The project perished as the con-
sequence, so at least it Is said, Of a
statement by John L. Lewis that
the convocation had for one Of its
primary objects the formulation Of
plans to assist in the launching Of
q third-term boom. Since then sus-
picion has been entertained that
the symbol, two crossed fingers, has
not accurately suggested the rela-
tionship between the two men.
Before he entered the Govern
ment service, Dimock was one of
the vocative members of the Uni
versity of Chicago faculty, occupant
OF the chair of political science.
While still professor he was ap-
pointed consultant to the National
Resources Commission. Before that
he had made study of the ad-
ministrative machinery Of the In
land Waterway Corp. and also per-
formed similar service in a survey
of Panama Canal enterprises.
Secretary of Labor Perkins re-
tanned him to survey the procedure
Of the immigration and Naturaliza-
ton Service and afterward named
him as her second assistant secre-
tary with full authority over that
agency. 1t was post that had been
vacant for two years as q result Of
the appointment of Arthur j. Alt
meyer as a member of the Social
Security Board.
Here Dimock served with efficiency
until last July, when he was trans
ferred to the Justice Department
following removal of the Immigra-
tion and Naturalization Service
from the Labor Department. If he
goes to the N. L. r. B. he will sue
ceed j. Warren Madden, the chair
man whose five-year term of ONCE
expires the latter part Of this month.
And, if he does receive the appoint-
ment, it Is not certain he will be
named chairman, although the pos
sibility exists.
In various outgivings designed to
acquaint both labor and business
with his theory that there was no
quick route to social stablization,
Dimock has often spoken with
tolerance and cogency, but with
firmness as well. As for instance ::
Business must accept new
order in period of administrative
growth and experimentation" He
was speaking, among other things,
of the Wagner Act and Fair Labor
Standards Act. Growing pains he
regards as an inevitable result of
so much new legislation in recent
years. They will diminish" he has
said, "as administrators gain more
experience"
(Released by Consolidated News Features

Vice President heads and as
sistants of executive departments,
etc."
Now even in the case of this Sec
ton 9 of the 1899 act 1t is ques-
tionable whether Congress intended
to say that high officials, including
the President, could use their ON
cial authority or influence" to AFFECT
the result of an election when the
exemption refers really to the Sec
ond sentence only.
Law Concerning Governors.
Corroboration of this viewpoint
is to be found in what Congress did
in enacting the 1910 law referring
to Governors of States. Here Con-
gress used the identical language,
but limited the exemption specific
ally to the second sentence" and so
designated it in the law. Here Is
the language of the provision cover
ing State officials:
mo officer of any State - shall
use his official authority or infiu-
ence Tor tne purpose OF interfering
with an election or nomination
for Office or affecting the result
thereof, etc. No such officer or en-
ploye shall take any active part In
political management or in political
campaigns. All such persons shall
retain their right to vote, etc. !"
For the purposes of the second sem
tence of this subsection, the term
officer or employe' shall not be
construed to include the Governor
or Lieutenant Governor, ETC."
But whatever doubt there may
be about the intent of Congress
with reference to section 8 there
is no such doubt about the previous
eight sections. They make it neces-
sary for the President and his cab

chief Of naval operations in the
case Of naval material. and the
chief Of stah Of the Army in the
case Of military material, shall
first certify that such material Is
not essential to the defense Of the
United States.
The British Navy lost some IL
destroyers during the last week. It
desperately needs others. While
the proposed American rsplenish-
ments might not turn the tide, some
naval experts believe they would be
Of very considerable help. They
represent, at any rate, the most ef-
fective aid we can now feasibly rem
der In Britain's back-to-the-wall
plight. Supposedly their main USE
fulness would be for convoy pur-
poses, releasing more modern Brit
ish destroyers for combat duty.
Shipstead as Republican.
Senator Shipstead's return to the
Republican fold-his decision not to
seek reelection as a Farmer Labor
ite-is one Of the campaigns major
developments. The tall sycamore Of
the lakes country is an uncommonly
shrewd politician. He would hardly
risk shedding the party label he has
carried for 20 years without assur-
ance that it's a safe shift. Ship
stead is Minnesota's champion vote
getter. He won three senatorial
elections by majorities which in
cluded nearly every county in the
State. His first victim was former
Secretary Of State Kellogg, Repub-
lican, whom Shipstead defeated for
reelection in 1922.
The Minneapolis dentist-states-
man made rapid strides at the Capt.
toll, where he is today held In highest
esteem. Early in his career. Ship
stead attracted the notice Of the
late Senator Lodge, chairman Of the
Foreign Relations Committee, who
offered the newcomer from the
Scandinavian Northwest a coveted
place on that blue-ribbon body. With
his stranglehold on the farm vote
and the support Of Gov. Stassen,
Shipstead's friends predict he will
maintain his victory record and re-
turn to the Senate for q fourth
term.
Enemy Propaganda" Chief Here.
One of President Roosevelt's week
end callers was Sir Campbell Stuart,
a director of the London Times and
executive head of the famous British
Propaganda In Enemy Countries"
organization during the World War.
The nominal chief Of that potent
outfit was the late Lord Northcliffe,
whose attention was drawn to
Stuart, young Canadian from Mon
treal. because of his feat in recruit
ing single-handed battalion of Do
minion troops for the British Army
in 1914-15. No other than Ludendord
confessed in his autobiography that
the Northcliffe-Stuart propaganda
was q primary factor in undermine
ing German resistance. President
Roosevelt greeted Stuart as an old
friend, Sir Campbell having come
here as military secretary to the
1917 British war mission.
