WISE MERCHANTS ADVERTISE
IN THE HAGERsTOWN GLOBE
The Hagerstown globe., 1942-01-02
MAJOR BROOKE LEE

From Cumberland to the metro
politan fringe of Montgomery
County, the we'll nigh unanimous
belief is that, when the real battle
lines form, the chief candidate will
be soldier political boss and legis-
lature, Major E. Brooke Lee of
Silver Spring. Even Mollie Mich
olson concurs in this. Brooke
wisely has remained silent but he
knows, and so do his followers,
that if he chooses to he can have
the nomination.
In his own bailiwick, Brooke
and his machine are stronger than
in many years. His activity in
registering new voters in the Dem
ocratic columns Shows a masterful
grasp of the political trend. Never
in the history of suburban Mont
gomery county have the Demo
Gratis rolled up such top-heavy ad-
vantage over the Republicans.
Elsewhere, including katharine's
own Washington County, Brooke
has powerful friends. And because
Brooke is solidly lined up with the
O'Conor state administration, it
would follow that he would likely
have the support of Attorney Gen
eral Bill Walsh in Western Mary
land. Also his brother legislators
scattered throughout the counties
would weigh heavily in lining up
machine support for his nomina-
ton.
Of all of this Katharine is aware
but this does not change her dis
arming smile and her wise state
ment that it 'is too early for me
to decide whether will be a candi.

We Shall Finish 1t

What We are saying to ourselves
today is that it makes little differ
ence to us what particular persons
are responsible for starting this
war; that it is we who, pleading
the justice of our cause in the tri-
bunal of Almighty God, means to
finish it. We shall finish it to the
end that never again shall the foul
hands of totalitarianism and mill
tarism be lifted against us, our
children or our children's children.
Today we know but one duty-to
stand together as Americans un-
der the leadership of the President
and Congress of the United States.

day of dissension is past. - (New

NEW YEARS GREETINGS
FROM GOVERNOR O'CONOR

In addressing to all the people
of Maryland my personal and Of
fetal wishes for Happy and
Prosperous New Year, | have def
initely in mind the conditions that
face us at this moment as citizens
Of Maryland and of the United
States.
1912 will be trying year for all
of us. There will be sacrifices to
be made, and there will be sorrow
for some, the members of whose
families are called upon to suffer
in the defense of their country.
To all, however, l can only ex-
press the necessity for our united
cooperation towards the defeat of
the aggressor nations. By such
united action alone can we hope
to defend our American rights, and
to end as quickly as possible the
threats now being made against
our national and individual secur-
ity.
There will be satisfaction for
all of us in the complete perform
ance of our duties as citizens of
this grand Democracy. Let us
face the New Year, therefore,
with confidence in our Maker and
in the ultimate victory of decency
over aggression. May the end of
1912 find us at peace again.

will charge her with laissezfaire
attitude toward her Congressional

history repeating itself, for that

But Bill proved skillful. More

OLD PRINCIPLES,
new SITUATIONS

The ten Amendments to the
Constitution which we call the Bill
Of Rights have a meaning as vital
to Americans of today as to the
Americans Of 1891 who wrote them.
The freedoms of worship. speech,
press and assembly which Ameri-
can citizens guaranteed to them
selves $50 years ago are the same
to defend in 1941.
The Bill of Rights is the great
charter of individual liberty and
the dignity of the individual. AS
such it lies close to the hearts of
farm men and women. Although
farmers as a group claim no SUI
periority over other groups of
Americans in love of liberty and
in patriotism, they surely come
tically all the men who formed the
Bill of Rights, who passed it in
Congress, and who ratified it in
State Legislatures were either
farmers or men elected by farm
erS.
Farmers are as willing to work
and fight for the Bill of Rights now
as they were then; and they will
fight for the spirit of the Bill of
Rights, not just for the enshrined
letter. In their striving for eco
nomic democracy farmers now
are applying the old principles to
new situations which have arisen.
They are making farm programs
work so that farmers can have a
say in their own destiny.
For all American citizens as we'll
as or farmers, the first ten Amend
ments to the Constitution are the
guarantee that the state will exist
to serve the individual, not the in
dividual to serve the state. We are
prepared to guard that guarantee
by force of arms against any
threat from without. And by
warning against poverty, disease
and malnutrition, which are the
breeding ground of intolerance
and race hatred, we are prepared

calls for seconds" than for those
of the regular issue. Other de-
hydrated faVorites with our soldiers
are sweet potatoes, and desserts
made from dried fruits.
Nor are our armed forces the only
ones who profit by the Improvement
in food drying. Out where the West
begins, many Indians on their res
erVations for many years have been
accustomed, under Government
tutelage, to can their surplus garden
commodities for winter use. With
| little tin or lead, and few rubber
rings for jars available, they are
being taught again to dry their
food against the coming Of winter,
as was the custom long before the
white man came. Only now, the
/ process is along the scientific lines
developed by the Dehydration Com
mittee.
Indian Children Run Dryer.
The Indian school children at
Phoenix, Ariz., are doing a very
satisfactory job of running the de-
hydrator recently installed there.

day he and his committee are sue
cessfully developing practical ways
In which scientifically dried foods
may help with the war effort at
home and abroad.
Scientific Potato Peeling.
This is being done through the
discovery of new methods for pre-
pairing food for drying; more mod
ern methods for the process of dry
ing itself; and new devices for re-
tanning essential nutritive values
throughout storage and transporta-
ton. For instance, experiments are
now being made in the peeling Of
white potatoes for the dehydration
process by means of radiant heat
diathermy procedure. The loss in
peeling is only per cent when it
used to be 25. In addition, the
potatoes come out without their eyes
and are perfectly smooth and clean
as a result of this almost lightning
like charring of their skins.
The greater portion of the expert
mental work in connection with
these projects has been done at the
Western regional laboratory of the
Department of Agriculture, near
Albany, Calf, and in its Los Angeles
laboratory, which Mr.. Chace heads.
These special Investigations are
proving guide to commercial dehy-
dration plants in large-scale opera
tfons.
One of the commercial plants has
been handling 100 tons of cabbage
every "a hours for the past several
months. Others have been operating
on basis of between 100000 and
100000 pounds of dehydrated prod
ucts a year; chiefly onions, garlic
and mixed vegetables for soup.
Drying Range Wide.
It has been found that the vege-
tables that lend themselves best to
the drying process are, in descending
order: Potatoes, cabbage, onions,
carrots, corn, spinach, chard kale,
beets, lima beans and mustard
greens. Fruits, such as cranberries,
apples, apricots, peaches, grapes,
prunes and many berries also dry
well. Eggs are a very important
source of dried food, and beef is
rapidly becoming SO.
The drying of foodstuffs does not
seriously impair their color, thei1
palatability, or, most important OF
all, their vltamin content.
In fact, scientifically dried foods
which are properly packed and
stored, lose no more of their essen
tial dietetic value, appearance and
flavor than do fresh foods from the
time they are harvested or pre-
pared until they reach the average
city housewife. When reasonable
temperatures are maintained these
qualities persist in dried foods even
on long Journeys.
The value of dried foods from
the standpoint of mass handling
alone is enormous. Last year some
thing like 100000 bushels of sorely
needed white potatoes were lost in
England through freezing because
of inadequate storage facilities
This could not have happened hao
these potatoes been scientifically
dehydrated and properly packaged
The advantage of dried foods
