Bolivar Pagan, resident commits
sioner of Puerto Rico, complained at
the hearing that Gov. Rexford Tug
well of Puerto Rico is trying to elm
mate private enterprise in the
island and that the decline of COM
merce in foodstuffs reflects this aim.
"The Governor is trying to kill
the golden goose of business" Mr..
Pagan said. He is Puerto Rico,s
elected non-voting delegate in Con-
gress.
Senator Chavez sought to keep
the testimony strictly on economic
questions, but Mr.. Pagan insisted
that the economics of the island
are primarily affected by the policies
OF Gov. Tugwells rotten govern
ment," in his phrase. He said the
two calamities" that now beset
Puerto Rico are the war and Gov.
Tugwell.
The Tugwell regime includes car
petbaggers who think more of their
jobs than Of the needs of the people
OF Puerto Rico" Mr.. Pagan said.

Commons Stands Silently
To Protest 'Borborism'

LONDON, Dec. II IR.-Foreign
Secretary Anthony Eden read to the
House of Commons today the Allied
declaration condemning treatment
OF Jews in Axis dominated countries
and Commons stood briefly in 81
lence in a gesture of protest to what
one member called this disgusting
barbarism."
There was deep silence in the
hall when Baron de Rothschild
voiced gratitude that such an an
nouncement had been made by the
Allied nations.
Mr.. Eden was asked whether the
government could explore the pos
sibility of a mass migration of Jews
into a neutral country, such as
Sweden.
The Foreign Secretary said that
he would be happy to do anything
he could, but that the difficulties
OF such a step easily could be ap-
preciated.
Dispatches from Moscow said the
Soviet radio at noon broadcast the
Allied declaration.

Three hundred and fifty-two food

food shortage there and because of
the Governments method of dis

Chairman Chavez received this
information in a telegram from
Filipo de Hostos, president OF the
Chamber of Commerce of San Juan,
and read it into the record of the

This news from Mr.. de Hostos

For example, consider that very

eaten with zest for it's own fine
flavor, but 1t sets the tone for the
rest Of the meal.
There are various ways to achieve
an individual soup. We can, II
We wish, combine two soups in the
clever modern fashion.
Another smart idea Is to search
out new soups and use them while
they're still something of a novelty.
New at the moment, for instance, is
condensed black bean soup -. d
thick soup, deep appetizing brown
in color, smooth and delicate on the
palate.
Condensed cream of potato is
another newcomer. This particular
one combines beautifully with other
soups, too. Here is a party bisque

number of spots, especially those
regarded as swank, do not care for
the patronage of enlisted men. The
prevailing rate of pay, SCI a month,
even though the soldier or sailor
should spend his whole 80 days
earnings in one place, doesn't mean
much in a night club. Hence, there
is a tendency to frown on the buck
private or the newly enlisted men,
Der of the navy. The frowns, how
ever, are hidden whenever possible.
A law passed many years ago is re-
sponsible for the attempt to mask
night club owners feelings. The
measure provides for $500 fine for
discrimination against the uniform.
While some of the 'class" places
do not welcome enlisted men, it is
different when it comes to officers.
That is due to two quite evident
reasons. In the first place, officers
as rule have more money to spend
than enlisted men. Second, propri-
etors hold that officers give tone to
their spots, especially when it comes
to women patrons. Then too, there
are a number of socialite officers.
There are socialite enlisted men
with money to spend also. That
complexities the situation. If an en-
listed man should be informed by
headwaiter that there is no space
available and another man in the
same uniform but who is numbered
among the elect, should walk up, be
received with bow and escorted to
a table, there might be trouble.
Possibly $500 worth of trouble.
