implied, attacks in an effort to
take the city by storm would be
resumed.

many ways is similar to that for

OF the Caucasus front, the war
bulletin reported:
An enemy group encircled along
the road to )Tuapse has been de-
stroyed. Here the bulk of a crack
Soviet division and parts Of a Soviet
rifle division have been wiped out,
over 400 enemy positions have been
taken, and a number Of prisoners
and arms captured.

way to adjust the allotments for
these different zones? Yes, they
will be based on temperature rec
ords covering long period OF years.
How do heating experts measure
differences in cimate2 In terms of
degree days.
What does the term degree days
mean? Degree days is the differ
ence between the average tempera-
ture outside and the arbitrarily Sc
lected figure OF IS degrees, the heat
level to which home heating must
be held In view of the fuel shortage.
For example, if the average tenn
perature outside on a given day is
80 degrees the degree day record of
that day is IS. If the same average
temperature continued for 10 days
the degree days for that period
would be $50.
Is there a degree day figure for
every city and town in every section
OF this rationed area? Yes.
What is the heat loss formula? I?
It is the square foot Of heated floor
area, multiplied by the degree days,
divided by a constant rejecting such
house heating factors as insulation
and burner efficiency.
Ration Range to Be Set.
Will the result be the number of
gallons to be included in the ration?
Not absolutely. The use of two con-
Stants will provide a maximum and
minimum base ration for a particu-
lar house. A ration range is thus
established.
just what effect does the amount
of oil burned last year have on the
base ration? If 662a per cent of
that amount falls within the range
set by the formula, then that will
be the ration.
But if it falls above the maxi
mum of the formulae range, what
then? Then that maximum will be
the ration.
But what if it falls below the
minimum of the formulae range?
Then the ration will be IS per cent
OF last years consumption, or the
minimum of the range, whichever
is smaller.
What sort of stimulus does this
place on the consumer OF fuel oil?
1t makes it to his advantage to
convert to coal or to conserve fuel
oil through improved insulation and
burner efficiency.
Reward for Efficiency.
Suppose home falls above the
maximum range set by formula? I?
Then the percentage cut under last
years usage will be more than 33 l 3

Honey-The hector of Flowers

1Ott VI he 4NeClOI VI lONS els
Honey The mere word brings to
mind old-time fragrance and flavor.
1t is the hector of flowers converted
into one of the oldest and most health
full sweets known to man. Its piquant
aroma and flavor stimulate and give
zcst and character to the most COM
mon-place meal.
Honey Facts
Honey is a wholesome, natural food.
1t gives sweetness plus flavor
1t may wisely be substituted for
sugar or molasses.
1t is an energy-giving food, especial
ly easily digested.
1t contains small amounts of min
eral.
1t possesses slight laxative proper
ties.
1t keeps indefinitely if stored in a
warm, dry place.
1t is obtained in comb, extracted
and graduated form.
Ways of Using Uncooked Honey
Honey is at it's best uncooked, with
the natural flavor and color I'M
changed. Among the most satisfac-
tory uses are the following:
As a spread-With bread, plain or
toasted, griddle cakes, waffles, bis
cults, and other hot breads.
Cereals-If necessary, warm the
honey slightly to make it pour more
easily
In Sandwich Fillings-The following
are a few of the many delicious sand
witch filings made with honey:
Honey butter, made with equal
parts of honey and butter creamed to-
gether, with or without nuts or with
grated orange peel.
Honey with chopped dried fruits,
with or without nuts.
Honey with either cream or cottage
cheese
Honey and chopped or grated orange
peel.
Honey and peanut or almond butter.
In Sauces-In hard sauce, substitute
honey for one-half the sugar
Serve honey as a sauce for ice
cream. Use cup of honey, l "A cups
of finely chopped or grated fresh
orange peel, z cup of orange juice,
and IS teaspoon of salt. Combine the
ingredients and let the mixture stand
over hot water, without cooking, for
about 30 minutes to blend the flavors
Cooking with Honey
High temperatures change the fla
vor Of honey. For cakes, or other
baked products made with honey, the
oven temperature should be low.
Honey takes up moisture rapidly.
Fruit cakes, steamed buildings, cook
les, and candies stay moist longer if
made with honey, and this. of course
is desirable But some confections and
frostings, if made with honey, will re-
main soft and take up more moisture
if the air is humid-which may or may
not be desirable.
Honey is one-fifth water. In sub
shutting honey for sugar the liquid
in the recipe must be reduced accord
ing to the consistency of the honey
and to the proportion of honey used.
Measure for measure honey aver
ages about the same sweetness as
ordinary sugar. Therefore equal sub
stitutions can be made.
Spices that blend well with honey
are nutmeg, cloves, ginger, cinnamon,
cardamon, coriander seed, and aniseed.

BY 1899 he had become sc
well and favorably known as to
be elected mayor by the largest

and reelected two years later,

official duties, but has been
equally attentive to, and a par
ticipant in, all the activities of
the community.
But, the true yard-stick for
measuring the worth of public

jealousies and bitterness which seethe

Double Compensation
Washington, Aug. 2!

Washington, Aug. 20.
The other day the President di-
rected his department aides not to air
their differences in public. There are
two ways of looking at this. One is
that it is very salutary order which
if observed, will improve public NOR
ale and stop giving our enemies the
impression of internal disorder and
dissension. The other is that this is a
White House device for covering up
blunders, concealing incompetency and
shutting off news to which the people
are entitled and which would force a
greater efficiency in war manage
ment.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1942-09-03

Nor will it allay the feeling of dis
elimination and unfairness which af-
flicts so many good men who have
come here since the war began and
who are doing really useful work. One
of the causes for this feeling is the
difference in treatment of men, all of
whom should be treated alike, in the
matter of compensation. For example,
there are a lot of officials here who
are making very great financial sac
rifices to serve their country. They
have relinquished large salaries in
private business. They are living here
at considerable expense and working
either for the traditional dollar year
or for a small fraction of what they
had been paid.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1942-09-03

Perhaps, it does Mr. Knox an in
justice. Or, perhaps, he has received
a personal Interpretation of the law
from the Attorney General which
would sanction this double compensa-
ton. If Mr. Biddle has given such an
opinion, then it ought to be known so
that it could be applied to all alike.
If he has given such an opinion, or if
Mr.. Knox is not receiving two salar-
les in violation of the law, then Mr..
Knox owes it to himself to deny the
allegations and stop the talk, which
is good neither for the morale of the
war organization or the morale of the
public.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1942-09-03

On the other hand, there are men
here who have not given up anything
at all in the way of private income.
On the contrary, the Government sal
airy which they now get is merely in
addition to income from their law Of
fees or banks or businesses. In brief,
there is no rule which applies to every
one. The Government permits some to
supplement their private income with
a Government salary, but insists that
others shall sever all outside profit
able connections. Some corporations
whose executives have come here have
given them indefinite leave of alb
sence with full pay; others have ac-
copied their designations with no pay
