direction. When border States
like Kentucky, Missouri, West
Virginia and Maryland turn to
the Republicans, the chances of
the Democrats in a national
election - 1914 - become DINNER
and DINNER. These are States
which ordinarily elect Democrats
and give their electoral votes to
Democratic presidential candi-
dates.
1t is true that Democratic fac
tional rows have played their
part in these Republican VIC
tories. But, nevertheless, many
voters who have in the last
decade voted Democratic are now
voting Republican, just as many
Republican voters swung over to
the Democratic side of the fence
at the close of the Hoover ad-
ministration. There is no other
way to account for Republican
gains which have occurred all
across the country in the last
two years.
Result Called Amazing.
The result in the Kentucky
4th district was really amaz-
ing. One Democratic explanation
is that large number of Demo-
Gratis in the district went out to
knife j. Dan Talbot, the Demo-
cratic nominee. They point out
that the Republican victor, Mr..
Carrier, polled approximately the
same vote as that polled by Gov
elect Willis, Republican, in the
November 2 election, but that
Mr.. Talbot ran thousands of
votes behind Lyter Donaldson,
the Democratic candidate in the
gubernatorial race in that dis
trict. This means, they say, that
because of the factional war in
the Democratic party many
Democrats either remained away
from the polls or voted for Mr..
Carrier against Mr.. Talbot.
Mr.. Talbot is friend of Sen
ator Happy" Chandler. SEN
ator Chandler was cold to the
Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor, Mr.. Donaldson. He shed
no tears over the defeat of Mr..
Donaldson, who had the backing
of Senator Barkley. Senator
Chandler now is on the losing
end of campaign.
Many Wanted Primary.
The nomination of Mr.. Tall
bett was made by a district DEM
ocratic committee, dominated by
the Chandler-Talbott faction.
Many of the Democrats wanted
a primary 10 select a candidate.
But the election was called in so
short a time by Gov. Johnson
there was no opportunity for a
primary. This added to the re-
sentiment of some of the Demo-
Gratis. Several Democratic Office
holders in the Fourth District
announced publicly their opposi-
tion to the election of Mr.. Tai
bott.
There is no way, however, of
getting away from the fact that
in 1912 the late Representative
Creal, whose death caused the
vacancy in the House, carried
the district. with a lead of 1900
votes, and that in the recent
gubernatorial race, Mr.. Donald
son ran only 280 votes ahead of
his Republican opponent in the
district. 1t was evident at the
time that the Republican swing
was on, swing that carried the
State for Mr.. Willis.
On January 18, the Repub-
licans will have another oppor-
tunity to demonstrate, If they
can, their strength at the polls.

If the Republican party wants to
present refreshing new order of
things in government, it might well
include pledge to streamline Con-

against the trend to autocracy that
has swept other countries. But it

The Political MIL

to fill vacancies In the Second
and Seventeenth Congressional
Districts Of Pennsylvania on that
date. The vacancy in the Second
was caused by the resignation Of
Representative McGranery, Dem
ocrat, who has been appointed
an assistant to the Attorney
General. The death of Repre-
sentative Otter, Republican, in
an airplane accident. is respon-
sible for the election in the Sew
enteenth District. The Repub-
ncans confidently expect to elect
q Republican to I'LL Mr.. Differs
place-the district long has been
held by the COP. They also be-
leve they can win in the Second
District-a Philadelphia district.
The City of Brotherly Love on
November 2 elected a Repub-
lican Mayor by a considerable
vote.
Vacancy in Oklahoma
Another House vacancy is
found in the Second Oklahoma
District. Representative Nichols,
Democrat, resigned last July.
There is still a contest over his
election, which he won oy the
scant margin of 1888 votes. Until
the contest is settled, no special
election is likely to be held in
that district. Oklahoma elected
a Republican Senator in 1912.
The death of Representative
Steagall, Democrat, of Alabama,
creates a vacancy in the Third
Alabama District. No Republican
has a chance there.
Democratic leaders have felt
the shock of these repeated Re-
publican victories. Their only
answer is that the Democratic
defeats have been "local," and
due to causes arising particularly
in congressional districts and
individual States. They profess
to see no national swing away
from the New Deal and Presi-
dent Roosevelt. Postmaster Gen.
eral Walker. chairman of the
Democratic National Committee,
summed up this feeling on the
part of the Democrats when he
said in a radio address Tuesday
night that next year the Republic
cans will have to deal, not with
local problems and local per-
sonalities, but with national is
sues and national personalities.
The Democrats have seen Presi-
dent Roosevelt elected three
times. They have seen him run
far ahead of the Democratic
ticket in State and congressional
contests. They expect him to
repeat.
Clean Campaign Urged.
Mr.. Walker. in his radio address,
very properly urged that the
coming national election not de-
generate into "a mere brawl over
personalities" The campaign, he
said, should be based on principle,
not on passion; based on facts
and not the superheated fancies
of campaign orators. And he
urged the wisdom Of brief CAM
paign. If such a program is fol-
lowed, he holds, there should be
no peril to national unity.
The Democratic campaign is to
be built around President Roose-
welt and his administration, and
the record which they have made.
That Is, OF course, If the Presi-
dent runs for a fourth term. If
the war should be over, or virtu-
ally over, the Chief Executive
might decide not to be q candi-
date again. In that event, the
Democrats still would have to
campaign on the Roosevelt re-
cord, though with q different
candidate, and under different
conditions.

She says such parents usually
have a spoiled Junior by the hand,
who turns up his nose at every
simple toy offered for sale because
since he was three years old he has
been playing with complicated cleo
trio toys that didn't take any more
brains or imagination on his part
than the ability to turn on switch.
So the saleswoman doesn't feel
much like crying with Juniors
parents over the sad plight of
youngsters forced to play with
wooden, instead of metal and cleo
trio toys.
This toy shortage, that indul-
gent parents are so worried about,
will probably actually be good for
the kids.

1t will also do something else
for children. 1t will force them
to use a little more Imagination in
their play, if they have to get along
without a lot of fancy, complicated

And it will tend to make them
share what they have with each

as they can provide them with milk

FIGHT Food Waste to Win the War
From the State Nutrition Commute

Do you as a homemaker feel at
times that you are not doing enough
to help win this war. This column
today, then, is aimed at you, if you
are one of Americas "a million
homemakers. One wasted slice of
bread, or one tablespoon of wasted
vegetable in each of these homes
daily means "a million wasted slices
of bread and 81 million wasted por-
tons of vegetables. Saving such
huge quantities can help immeasur-
ably in our task of feeding the ma
ton and it's fighting men. Also,
these seemingly small daily kitchen
wastes are responsible for losses in
your own family funds. Yes, indeed,
Mrs. Homemaker, you can help
America and help yourself by fight
ing food waste in your own kitchen.
First of all, how about a careful
inventory before you go to buy, es-
pecially of the perishable foods. Buy
only what you need and serve only
what your family will eat.
Perishable food needs special at
tention in order to store properly.
Decide how each food keeps best
then follow that pattern as groceries
ae bought into the house. Procras-
tination is the thief of food values.

tainer for storage and then store at

Edible Greens
Are Abundant
And Free
BY MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX
NEA staff Writer

Here's down to- earth food news
you can find many wild greens that
are good to eat in fields, vacant
lots, along roadsides, in streams and
in woods. Call them weeks, If you
want. But such wild greens as dan
delions, plantain, wild chicory, etc.,
make tender salads and also can
be cooked as vegetables. They are
rich in vitamins and minerals and
of course are free as the open
spaces where they grow.
Know your greens before you eat
them. Don't serve any wild green's
unless you know they are safe. Ask
the Department of Agriculture or
your local state college of agricul-
ture to identify it if you are ont
certain.
Cook greens as soon as possible
after gathering. Pick over care
fully, discard wilted parts and trim
off roots. Wash thoroughly in sew
eral waters. But don't soak them
in water. Cook in very little sailed
water for brief time only.
You get more vitaminS when you
serve wild green's raw in salads.
Try combining shredded young
dandelion greens, an onion finely
chopped, few radishes sliced thin,
a sprig of parsley cut fine, and
French dressing.
Dandelion. For the tenderest
greens, cut leaves before the yellow
blossom comes. Cut the toothedged
leaves at the root crown.
Lambs Quarters. Wild spinach
is another name. Some consider
the flavor more delicate than that
of garden spinach. GooSefoot is
still another name, because of the
jagged shape of the leaf. You will
find this silvery green weed "at
home" in rich garden patches or
in potato fields.
Plantain. This familiar heavy
leafed weed hugs the ground al
most as close as the dandelion and
must be dug up in the same way.
Pick only young, tender leaves.
Crisped and shredded, they make
good cobminers for salads.
Wild Chicory. For eating pur-
poses, hunt the wild chicory long
before the blue flower appears. The
rosette of root leaves may be
cooked, or the tender shoots and
leaves be used raw in salads.
The juice or pot liquor in which
wild green's have been cooked holds
vitamins and minerals. Save and
serve on the greens, or use in
sauces and soups.

bones in sailed water until the
meat is very tender, about two or
three hours. Take out the head,
place it in n colander to drain, and
remove all the bones. Cut the ears
in very thin slices. Season the
whole to taste with salt, pepper,
sage, marjoram and other herbs
and a little powdered cloves. Mix
the mass well. Pack it tightly in
a bowl, interspersing layers of the
mixture with slices of the boiled
ears. Press the whole into COM
pact shape and cover with plate,
on which place a heavy weight.
The head cheese will be ready to
use in 2 or days. 1t may be cut
in thin slices and served with vine
gar and mustard, or it may be cut
in slices, dipped in egg and cracker
crumbs and fried.
