Pound for pound poultry meat has
the same quantity of protein-the most
important value of meat in >he diet-as
other meat. Chicken gfblets are espeei-
ally rich in iron and vitamin A, as the
edible organs of other meats are. Ex-
cept for the giblts, however. poultry
meat does not contain az mueh iron as
the so-called red meats.
In that important vitamin, Bone or
thiamine, chicken rates along with beef
but below lamb and veal and consider
ably below pork, In the other B-vitamins
chicken and other meats are about the
same.
Those at the family dinner table who
choose dark meat get more food value
as we'll as more flavor than those who
take white meat. DARK meat contains
considerably more rihoflavin, and prob
ably more iron. as well as more OF the
extractives or flavorinr substances in

Recipe for Canning Berries
Not too many berries should be gath
cred in one basket OF bucket, because
those in the bottom will be bruised and
the juice extracted. The berries should
be sorted putting all the whole sound
berries in one lot, and the broken, brujs-
ed or underripe ones in another con-
tsiner. Wash, taking care not to bruise
or leave standing in water. Fill the jar
with the whole berries, shaking them
down into position. Heat and crush the
broken berries to extract Juice. Fill the
spaces in the jar with this juice, parti-
ally seal, and process quarts or no. 3
can % minutes at boiling. Seal and
store in a dark place. The color of the
juice is improved if a few of the under
ripe berries are used. This also increas-
es the quality of the juice for jelly max
ing later in the year. Berries canned in
this way may be drained from the juice
and served with cream and g as
fresh berries, while the juice is adapt
able for Jelly making or punch Berries
require enamel-lined containers if put
in tin.
Skins may be removed from perfectly
ripe peaches by plunging into boiling
water for 9 minutes. Plunge into cold
water to stop cooking, then drain and
remove skins and pits. Drop halves into
a hot syrup made by dissoiving 8 cups
of g in 3 cups water. Let heat for
S minutes. Pack into clean jars. Remove
air bubbles and see that the fruit is
covered with hot syrup. Seal not and
process quarts or no. 3 cans 25 minutes

Temple Hall, last night. Declaring neither the Democratic or Republican parties had any con- crete platform for avoiding another depression after this war, Mayor McLevy stated the Socialist party possessed the best formula for guar anteeing prosperity in this country and elsewhere.
 John w. Ring, Waterbury, candi- date for congressman-at-large, in- troduced the Bridgeport Mayor and Alfred E. Tong, New Haven candi- date for state treasurer, who also spoke.
 Mayor McLevy recalled that when the Democrats in Washington re- duced the Republican protective tariff, he was called upon by both parties to go to Washington to pro- test the reduction which had made it possible for French factories mak- ing lace to sell it cheaper in this country than Bridgeport factories could make it, and for Czechoslovak factories to make shoes and sell them here cheaper than Massachu- sett's shoe factories could make them.
 He recalled that in 1911 he had advocated workmen's compensation and was laughed out" of the Capi- tol but the next year Socialist of ficials were elected in Bridgeport, Naugatuck and Terryville, so both major parties got scared and put through workmen's compensation act which, he said, was inadequate and had to be improved in subse- quent years.
 He said he was also laughed at when he first proposed an old age pension act, and an unemployment compensation act.

Houser Closes
Trip TO Valley

Lieutenant Governor Frederick
F. Houser. Republican candidate for
United States senator wound up a
two-day stay in Imperial county
Wednesday with a number of con-
ferenceS with personal friends and
party leaders. He delivered a pub
lie address Tuesday night under
the sponsorship Of the Pro- America
group after having spoken Tuesdav
noon before a joint meeting of the
Rotary ana niwanis clubs at
Brawley.
The most critical years in our
history lie ahead and California
must take its proper place in the
nations future program. That can
not be accomplished with our pres
ent junior senator at Washington.
The bureaucratic form of govern
ment must go the states must
regain the powers they have to
centralized boards, and most CT all,
the proposed water pact with Mex
leo must be defeated. Senator
Downey'S past record does not guar
antee that he will or can help do
these things.
Houser cited Downey's failure to
answer to important roll calls as
evidence of his failure tc represent
the state in an adequate manner.
