A fortunate thing about this mod
ern age is the fact that no matter
whether our favorite something is in
or out of season we can, thanks to
fine cans, still buy it.
There is little or no excuse there
fore, for not having good crab meat
in winter as well as summer. And
what perfectly grand things one can
do with little crab meat and little
imagination. Which brings to mind,
that modern science has also made it
possible for a cook to have little i'm
agination. All she need do is follow a
recipe as it is written and nine out
of ten times or even more often, the
dish will be a success. There is, of
course, that certain something called
cooking sense which enables some
fortunate women to add just little
something more to a recipe to give
it the final build-up.
Here is fine dish using crab meat
and peppers which will be great
favorite with the men. They seem to
dote on foods that are stuffed into
green peppers and baked. A green
pepper imparts a flavor all its own
to anything cooked with it, and the
flavor is something that cannot be
substituted.

Argues With Hatch on Bill

ton Of how group like the council
could influence and coerce voters.
Senator Hatch said he admired the
group and was certain 1t would not
stoop to coercion. However" he
said, there's the ruling"
Senator Hatch denied the accusa-
ton Of one member that his bill
took away the inalienable rights OF
man as defined in the Constitution
and quoted the opinion OF. Justice
Oliver Wendell Holmes.
Justice Holmes, Senator Hatch
stated, stood for the rights Of man,
but believed the welfare of the
Government made certain REQUIRE
ments when q person was In Gov
eminent employ. His sentiments
were. the Senator said. IF you don't
like 1t, get out!"
Senator Hatch concluded the quiz
by emphasizing that he believed in
the civil service and hoped for the
improvements which would perfect

developed that win enable him to

The Prudential official and Glen
Rogers, farm loan manager for
Metropolitan Life Insurance Co.,
both testified their companies were
anxious to make more farm loans
and to sell land acquired in fore
closures as rapidly as possible.
Selling 70 Per cent Each Year.
r. r. Rogers said that aside from
social considerations he considered
farming is for farmers" and told
the committee that Prudential was
selling 20 per cent Of the land 1t
owned each year and hoped that
five years will see us out Of the
farming business"
Glen Rogers told the committee
Metropolitan usually required q 10
per cent down payment when SELL
ing to a farmer, but sometimes sold
for as little as per cent down on
a character sale" Spectators and
non-residents, he added, were re-
quired to put up 20 per cent.

to encourage tenants to become
owners by selling to farmers with

The company, he testified, In
creased Its investment In farm
mortgages from $126, 800 900 In 1885
to $167 ,290, 900 In 1898.
Foreclosure Wave Seen Ended.
Expressing the opinion that the
wave Of foreclosures Is now over,
Mr.. Rogers said the company had
foreclosed on 29.8 per cent Of the
farms on which 1t lent money and
had acquired 1880 farms In the
process. BY last year all but 5,040
farms had been sold.

owner In the Nation. Glen Rogers
said his company received q return
Of 2.02 per cent last year on its
7,078 farms. ~ #
The profit, he said. was computed
after deducting an expenditure Of
$l,500,000 for rehabilitation work
which would largely be completed
by next year, making possible q

More than 100 determined men,
bers of the Democratic Women's
National Council last night cajoled,
argued with and even mildly de-
nounced Senator Hatch Of New
Mexico, who discussed the Hatch
bill with them at q meeting at the
Willard Hotel.
Senator Hatch, who accepted an
invitation to discuss his bill with
the council, was subjected to q
thorough raking over the Goals by
certain irate members of the group.
Other members bombarded the Sem
ator with questions, occasionally
telling him facts instead Of ques-
tioning him.
The council, formed In 1880 as
the Woman's Democratic Educa-
tional Council, organized an alb
sentee voting bureau which has
served as an information agency for
voters during political campaigns.
The council, composed almost ex-
clusively Of Government employees
or wives Of Government employees,
is forbidden by the Hatch bill to
essay any political opinions or take
part in any political activities.
The council VS.. Hatch" meeting
last night stressed the specific prob
lem of the council.
Hatch Outlines Background.
Senator Hatch outlined the back
ground Of his bill, stating that its
underlying ideals were expressed as
far back as 1776.
a Democratic platforms for many
years limited at the merit system,
which later became articulate in the
Civil Service, Senator Hatch ex-
planned.
"The desire of the Democratic
party has been and will be to dispel
the power of patronage" Senator
Hatch stressed.
Senator Hatch sympathized with
the council and lauded the group
for their work in the absentee voting
bureau. He explained that Govern
ment workers would be excluded
from political activities to make Ger
tain there would be no power Of
patronage.
Members, nearly all in the spec
ification excluded from political
work by the bill, were encouraged
by Mrs. Walter Maloney, program
chairman, to ask Senator Hatch
any questions concerning the bill.
Told to Avoid Partisanship.
One of the first questions was:
IF an employe has no right in
political activities, how can he best
serve his party?"
Senator Hatch replied, IAN en-
ploye can render the best service
by discharging his Office and avoid
ing the use of his Job for partisan
purposes"
