Fruit Sirup Recommended as Substitute
For Sugar If Rotion Appears Too Small

Council sponsorship viii tell you
how.
But before you ny at any of this
and before going on TO some sug-
eestions-note what the nutrition
lists say about your sweet tooth.
Half . pound OF sugar q week Is
Just half pound more than you
really need for Q balanced diet,
they say.
In 1923, when Uncle Sam was
Just becoming a stalwart in the
family Of nations and his virile sons
were beginning to tame the great
West. the per capita consumption
Of sugar was less than ounces a
week.
The Eskimos never tasted sweets
until the white man came along,
yet they were stout fellows, and up
until then never had much dental
trouble.
Body Produces Own Sugar.
The human system Just doesn't
need sweets. the dieticians say. be-
cause it makes its own sugar II
Is a prodigious user Of the particu-
lar kind of sugar it makes. but it
can produce it from the starches
or fats in the diet. 1t even reproc-
esses the sugar taken In the form
OF candy, soft drinks and dessert.
So whether you eat sweets or
starchy foods, your digestive ma
chinery II normal will continue to
make It's own brand of sugar as
needed.
Housewives can make sirups rather
easily out of dried fruit or certain
fresh fruit juices by either evapo-
ration, freezing or boiling or by
combination of these methods, re-
ports DR.. w. v. Cruess. head of the
University of California fruit prod
ucts laboratory and member OF the
State Nutrition Committee.
Prunes, which contain 10 to IS
per cent sugar, and raisins, which
run a. high as so or IS per cent.
yield the most sweetness for the
money, but dried dates and figs also
can be used. Dried pears. apples,
peaches and apricots contain lots
Of sugar but are dificult to handle.
If you want something sicken-
ingly sweet, boiled-down mulberry
juice will do. Most berries are poor
sources Of sweetening.
AL the fruit sirups can be used
In cooking, says DR.. Cruess, but do
not serve very well as table sweet.
To make a sugarless candy bar
with a minimum of effort, grind up

Pie-Prune, ig and raisfn pies
need little or no sugar.
Cakes, cookies. custards. frostings
Use honey in about the same pro-
portion as sugar, but remember that
honey contains moisture and sugar
does not. Reduce the liquid ingre-
dents Of the recipes accordingly.
Honey averages about one-sixth
moisture.
-Four ounces OF prunes contain as
much sugar as 4 two-ounce candy
bar. says the fruit expert. One
ounce of raisins or six ounces of
sweet cider or one raw apple Is
about as sugary as soft drink.
Dried fruits yield a maximum OF
sweetness when cooked long and
slowly. Prunes simmered for hours
and then kept just below simmer
ing temperature for q long time are
really sweet.

double-time pay on holidays and time

This Is the most costly war in history,
but that Is no reason lot of people
should strive to make it more costly by
racketeering profiteering and Just plain
THEY ary
The revelations demonstrated one
amendment the Smith bill needs very
badly before it is enacted. It should not
only limit profits on wartime contracts
to six per cent-it should eliminate the
possibility Of outrageous bonuses which
are used 10 get around the profit provl-
sion We do not say it should eliminate
all bonuses-a good workman still de-
serves extra reward ! but bonuses for
purposes Of wringing the last cent out
of the taxpayers are another thing en-
tirely.
We're all in this war We all stand
to lose everything if we lose it. Most of
US are making considerable sacrifices al
ready And it makes Us Just plain,

SKILLED IN MUNITIONS
TRUCK WRECK IN N. C.

SMITHFIELD.-The death toll
in the munitions truck explosion
near here Saturday rose to at least
live Monday, and possibly SIX
as thousands of motorist drove by
the devastated area and Jammed
traffic.
Sheriff Kirby L. Rose of john
son county estimated that some
400 900 curious walked or drove
by the scene. Traffic was slowed
to about five miles an hour.
The earth-shaking blast injured
more than 100 persons and made
II families homeless. It demollsh-
ed a roadside hotel, wrecked a
tavern, aevelled row OF filling
stations and shattered all the win
dows in Selma, a town about
mile away.
Coroner E. U. Booker put the
death toll at five when Edward
II. Howell of Goldsboro accepted
"a small heap of bones found in
the ashes of the hotel as those OF
his son, Willie Howell, 33-year-old
taxi driver.

PROPOSE CUT IN u. S.
SOIL CONSERVATION

WASHINGTON. A m e n d.
ments to cut nearly $1,000, 900
from proposed soil conservation
service funds were introduced by
Representative Everett M. Dirk
sen (R), ILL.,, during the fifth day
of House debate on the $7O0,000,-
900 agriculture supply bill.
Dirksen told the House the
budget bureau had placed the
soil conservation service Gin the
lowest classification so far as de-
Tense priorities" of government
operations are concerned, and said
savings realized by his proposals
would equal the amount needed
to purchase 100 bombers and $50
tanks.
He asked a reduction from $780,
51O,812 to $1O,O0O,0O0 in the
amount proposed for soil and
moisture conservation and land
use projects; a cut from 81, 314,429
to 100000 for soil and moisture
conservation investigations and
res arch, and reduction from
$501 1915 to $25O,0OO in the amount
proposed for general administra-
tive expenses.
