Utility beef needs special cooking ttention. Because it is short on he fat marbling that separates con- ective tissue and helps to make ,eef tender, 1t cannot be broiled or try roasted like fattened prime beef. Anything that breaks up or ofters the connective tissue of this lnrationed beef will make it good, lourishing fodo, though, so it's up to ne look.
 The most obvious way to over 1me the toughness of lean beef is to un 1t through meat grinder iround utility beef makes good meat 7aves, hamburgers, meat balls and umplings. Grinding isn't the only olution, however. Cooking in moist leat is equally effective and utility beef also makes good stews and re- 'iciouS pot roaSts.
 Anyone of these plebian beef en- rees can be made into a distin- uished and f1avorsome service if it Is prepared with wine. Many chefs have created the specialties that made them famous by dramatizing fishes of this type by the addi- ion of wine.

of the American Medical AsSocta- tion, 'it is doubtful if any further epidemics will be sponsored by the school
 The usual procedure with humps as with other communic- able diseases is to isolate the pa- tient at home so that spread Of the infection will be minimized, and to keep exposed children out of school until the possibility of their developing the disease is past. Most states require that the health department be notified of cases of humps, although the home is not quarantined.
 The period between exposure and the first symptoms of the dis ease is from 12 to 26 days. Germs enter the mucous membranes and are conveyed from person to per- son through secretions of the mouth and probably the nose. Early signs include fever, swell ing and tenderness of the glands in front of and below the ears. The swelling may be limited to one side, but usually one gland after another is affected until all are involved. Certain food acids mixed with the saliva cause 1n- tense pain ill the involved glands. For this reason the old fashioned pickle test" following the pa tient to bite into a pickle, as one means of diagnosis) still persists.
 Mumps is most prevalent be- tween the ages of and 9, and at that age complications are rare. Tn older children and adults in- flammation of sex glands some times causes serious compl!ca- tions.
 In mild cases of humps very little treatment is necessary, but the patient should be under the care of a physician, nevertheless.
 The home nurse should keep the patients mouth clean, using mild antiseptic washes. A nour- ishing diet is needed. but since there is more or less pain in chewing, the food must be fairly soft Hot applications relieve the pain and stiffness somewhat. The patient should be kept in bed, and protected from drafts and chilling.

Polio Epidemic Stressed
; In Arlington Fund Appeal

Pointing out that the United
States experienced its second worst
epidemic of infantile paralysis in
1914, Mrs. Laura T. Boldin, chairman
of the Arlington Committee of the
National Infantile Paralysis Founda-
ton, appealed yesterday for sup
port of the annual fund raising
campaign.
Between August 6 and November l,
Mrs. Boldin said there were 80 cases
of polio in Arlington, almost as many
as the total of all previously reported
cases. OF these, 26 were children IL
years old or under. The chapter,
she added, has spent more than
$500 already for disqualification and
nursing care for this years victims.
In addition the chapter has paid for
operations and disqualification for
many former victims.
1t requires an average of 81 300 to
give a years care and treatment to
one patient, she said.
Working in cooperation with
State and local health officials, the
Arlington Chapter is compiling a
register of victims in this area,
whether new cases or old, so that
all may receive whatever aid they
need. Mrs. Boldin stated.

Capital Transit Asks
PUG Approval Of
Bond Sale al 981

The Capital Transit Co. yesterday
requested the Public Utilities Com
mission to approve bid of 98l2
per cent of the par value of pro-
posed $12,500,000 bond issue from
syndicate headed by Alexander
Brown g. Sons of Baltimore.
LIST month the Securities and Ex-
change Commission and the Public
Utilities Commission disapproved a
bid of 97la from the same syndicate
holding that the bid was too low.
The transit company also sought
approval for bank loans of 81 500 900.
The local commission is expected
to act promptly on the applica-
ton, which also will have to be
submitted to the SEC.
The company is seeking to re-
finance it's long term debts. With
the s15,000,000 raised from bonds
and loans, in addition to the use OF
cash on hand, the company plans
to retire almost s18,000,000 of its
debts. The program is designed to
eliminate large cash requirements
for debt retirements now sched-
uled in l947 and 1851.
The bonds would bear 4 per cent
interest and would mature Decem-
Der /, 1864. The company esti-
mated that the reflnancing would
cost S162,l75, including legal fees
of $4,000, printing and engraving
costs of $4,000 and $4,000 for
financial advice.

Mother Makes
Nine Afghons for
Wounded Men

There was a story in The Star
Wednesday about women employees
of the War Manpower Commission
crocheting five Afghans for wounded
veterans in Walter Reed Hospital in
the last month. Today, there's a
postscript.

Job has gone the VINO one better.
Mrs. Leonardo Testa, 1929 P street
NV, who keeps house for her hus-
band and four children, has found
time to make nine Afghans, single
handed, beginning last May. That's
an Afghan a month. Hers have
gone to Walter Reed, too.
She started the work when she
heard about the need for the
blankets and remembered scraps of
yarn she'd saved from time to time.
She wrote Readers Clearing House
in The Star about what she was
doing and appealed for other per-
sons to send her any yarn scraps
they might have. She received
enough to knit the Afghans and she
still has some left.

Virginia Referendum
Viewed as LethaI
Blow al Constitution
New Stote Charter Would
Be Forever Banned
Green Says in Brief
BY the Associated Press.

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 6.-John
Locke Green of Arlington, who is
seeking court test of the Refer
endum Act passed last month, con-
tended in brief filed yesterday that
reasoning of supporters of the act,
If sound, would make the "con-
stitution, which created the Cen
eral Assembly," mere pawn" OF
the Assembly.
Undoubtedly, if the respondents
reason were sound" Mr.. Green
argued, "the General Assembly, an
inferior body, would forever pro-
hibit the sovereign people, the SUI
perior of the General Assembly
from ever voting new constitu-
tion."
Mr.. Green, Republican treasurer
of Arlington County. contended that
the same meaning could not be at
tached to both sections 1876 and 1877
of the constitution relating tc
amendments and the calling of a
convention.
Questions Logic.
Not by the most strained con-
struction," he said in his brief
could the conclusion be based upon
good logic, that the two sections
have the same meaning and that
the General Assembly has choice
by which method it can limit the
procedure of amending the consti-
tuition.
obviously, section 1875 deals with
amendments to the constitution In
specific form. Section 1877 concerns
only how a constitutional conven-
ton shall be called, to amend and
revise the constitution"
The Supreme Court, which opens
its January term Monday, Is ex-
pected to give early consideration to
the petition filed by Mr.. Green and
the one filed Thursday by Attorney
General A. P. Staples. The lat
ter petition seeks a declaratory
judgment of the validity OF the act.
Mr.. Green is attacking the "in-
formatory" statement provided in
the act and designed to limit the
constitutional convention, If called,
to the one purpose of removing con-
stitutional barriers to new and
valid war voters act.
Mr.. Green argued that 'if the
General Assembly could limit con-
stitutional convention under section
1877 there would be some duplication
of rights under section 1876, and,
conversely, if section 1876 can limit
what may be submitted to the peo-
pie there would be hardly any need
for section 1877.
Powers Would Be Same.
"The powers of General Assem-
bly, and a constitutional convention
would be the same" he added.
Neither would be superior to the
other. The method to amend is all
that remains"
The words mo convention for
such purpose shall otherwise be
called" contained in section 1877
were said by Mr.. Green as "un-
doubtedly' having been added at
the 1902 constitutional convention
in order to remove ny.doubt which
might be raised in the future as to
the sovereignty of constitutional
convention"
The present constitution, Mr..
Green added, "has wholly and COM
pletely held against the limitation
of the constitutional convention, di-
rectly or indirectly"
