Tips on soup making for Mrs.
F. E. L.: POT au Feu" (pot on the
fire. is the French and Italian soup
to which you refer. This was kept
on the back of the range at very low
heat for days. You can duplicate
this by pouring cold water or cold
vegetable water over bones saved
from roasts, adding green's, onion,
celery tops, carrots or carrot tops,
ETC., and allowing this to simmer
under the boiling point for 4 to 8
hours. Strain and add cooked
noodles, rice, barley, finely diced
cooked vegetables or serve clear. The
long cooking at the low heat brings
out every particle of meat flavor
in the bones. Strongly favored
vegetable water such as cabbage,
peas, ETC., should be used sparingly
if at all, and beets should be avoided
entirely. You will find many things
you'd ordinarily throw away will
make fine, tasty soup.

CANNON, TABER
DESCRIBE FIGHT

WASHINGTON, May 30 Up -
Reps. Clarence Cannon and John
Taber gave the house a Memorial
Day description of their one-punch
fight today - and to hear them tell
it they both won.
Said Taber: II could have held
him indefinitely
Said Cannon: THE gentleman
neglected to state that he ran out
of the room.
They agreed on one point-that
Cannon popped Taber in the mouth
during an argument in the form
er's office and that Taber didn't
hit back. But from that fact on
there were two sides to the story.
Cannon, Missouri Democrat,
is chairman of the appropriations
committee. Taber, a New Yorker,
is the ranking Republican member
of the committee. They clashed
yesterday shortly after Taber made
a speech denouncing the house &C
ton in voting itself an annual ST.
500 tax-free expense account for
every member.
Cannon spoke to the house for
Is minutes today. He said Taber
gave his side of the argument to
newsmen yesterday so he got up
ito give the other side"
First, he said, Taber's opposi.
ton to the expense allowance was
a bit of surprise because the
New Yorker had been for it ir
committee conversations.
AT no time did he indicate any
opposition to me or any DISPOSE
ton to oppose it on the floor"
However, the expense accoun
played no part in the fight, Tabel
said. He swung on the New York
err, he explained, because Tabel
made "a very insulting remark
to him on the floor.
Taber said yesterday that after
he was struck, he grabbed Cannon
