whom the canning is being done.
Also, they do not preserve color
and flavor as fully as do cane and
beet sugar.
General directions for using
corn strip and potato or wheat
dextrose strip in home canning
are to use it in the proportion Of
one-third corn, potato or wheat
sirup to two-thirds sugar. If using
medium strip calling for cup
of sugar to 2 cups of water, use
one-third cup of corn sirup, two
thirds cup sugar, and 2 cups of
water. If using a mild-flavored
honey, use one-half cup honey,
one-half cup sugar, and z cups
water.
The flavor and color of dark
corn strip makes it less suitable
than light sirup for canning but
it may be used in the same pro-
portions as light .sirup for canning
dark cherries, prunes, and plums.
Brown sugar should not be
used in canning but can be used
in buffers, jams and spreads.
sIRUPs IN BAKING
Those who have had opportun-
ity to cook and bake with the To-
cally manufactured potato and
wheat dextrose sirup have found
it very acceptable sugar saver,
according to Miss Florence Davis,
Extension Nutritionist, State Col
lege of Washington. Tasty cakes
that are light, tender, and moist
can be made by using potato or
wheat dextrose sirup for either
all or half the sugar. Generally
speaking, it can be used in any
recipe calling for corn sirup.
When changing over a recipe
calling for sugar to one using
potato or wheat strip, one must
make some allowance for the liq-
uid in the sirup In baking for
each cup of 43 .Baume Potato or
wheat dextrose sirup used in
place of sugar, reduce the liquid
by three tablespoonful, suggests
Miss Davis.
The strip is about half as
sweet as sugar, so many prefer
cakes and cookies made of half
sugar and half sirup.
The following recipes calling for
potato or wheat dextrose strup
and no sugar have been developed
by the Division of Home Econom-
les of the Agricultural Expert
ment Station.
The recipes are in pages 7.8.!O
of Sugar Savers" This bul!etin
is now available at the Agrlcul-
tural Extension Office.
FREEZING BERRIES
Frozen berries never fall 10

as frozen. but this is not true
of berries. The list is long; straw
berries, raspberries, blackberrles,
boysenberies, loganberrles, young
berries. and blueberries being
among the main ones, but the
method of preparing them for the
locker is similar and it is simple.
To hold the natural flavor and
color of berries and to keep them
fairly firm in texture, they are
treated with dry sugar or sugar
sirup. A strawberry that is not
especially prepared for the locker
upon thawing becomes extremely
fiabby and loses a large portion
of its juice through drip" and
becomes flavorless and sour. The
effect on other berries is some
| what the same. Raspberries, for
instance, upon thawing collapse
and are rather flavorless and have
poor color.
To prepare the fruit for the
locker, first of all harvest it at
the peak of perfection. Then cool
it and keep it cold, until you put
| it in the locker. Wash the berries

water preferably. for extremely

FOLLOWING is the report to the
Senate Appropriations Subcom-
mittee on fiscal relations betUeen
the Federal and District goU-
ernmentS, as released yesterday.
This report is a repiSion OF one
made to the committee last June.
1t appears under the title Firing
the amount OF annual payment
By the Federal Government to
the District of Columbia"
On Saturday, June II, 1914, the
Subcommittee on the District OF
Columbia, considering the appro-
pria tions for the District of Co.
lumbia for the fiscal year 1945,
adopted the following resolution:
Resolved, That the subcommittee
make a special investigation of the
fiscal relations between the United
States Government and the District
of Columbia with view to deter
mining a proper and equitable pay
ment by the Federal Government
to the District of Columbia.
The resolution was agreed to by
the full committee on June 19, 1914
The matter of the annual pay
ment has been the subject of a
number of investiga tions, as we'll as
considerabl debate in both houses
of the Congress, since the Federal
Government was transferred here
in 1900. During this period differ
ent plans have been in effect, all
of which 1t may be said were based
on arbitrary decisions or compro-
misses. No plan contained definite
formula.
During the past 20 years pay
ments have been made on a lump
sum basis, with considerable con-
troversy repeatedly occurring before
the amount of the payment was
definitely determined The contro-
versy and debate during this period
alone should be sufficient evidence
OF the necessity for adopting a
formula which would automatically
fix the amount of the annual pay
ment as Congress passes the appro-
priation act for the District of Co.
lumbia.
History of Fiscal Relations.
The fiscal relations between the
Federal Government and the Dis
trict of Columbia government have
passed through three phases, as
follows:
% Period 9O-1878-During this
period there was no fixed system,
with the result that in some years
there were lump-sum payments and
in other years no payments at ALL
1t was during this early period,
however, that Senate subcom-
mittee recommended, in 1885, that
the Federal Government pay def
mite proportion of the local govern
ment expense, based upon its prop
erty holdings in the District, but no
action was taken thereon
O. Period 879-1924-During this

II Other Cities

To support his recommendation
for increase in the Federal share of
the cost of operating the municipal
government here. Chairman O'Ma-
honey of the District Subcommittee
of the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee made public 10 tables of sta
tistics comparing the District OF Co.
lumbia with II other cities of the
country.
The data, prepared for the COM
mittee by three experts, carefully
analyzed revenues of these cities, in
cluding tax funds raised locally and
funds received from outside sources,
such as the Federal Government
In presenting the tables, the re-
port on Federal and District Fis-
cal Relations" called attention to
"a few main points on each table. y
Ranked by Size. -
Presenting table No. /, on popu-
lation, the report points out that
five of the cities in 1910 were larger
than Washington and six were
smaller. OF the IL cities, Washing
ton ranked fifth in total land area
and easily first in park area. Cleve-
land topped the population list with
878 1886, and Cincinnati was at the
bottom with 455,610.
Washington's census figure In
1910 was 663,091, but it's latest esti-
mated population was fixed at $780,
993 on July l, l943 The civilian
population" of Washington Novem-
ber l., l943, was 816,982, which was
"a gain of "a per cent since 1910.
The later statistics for Washington
were based "for the most part on
applications for ration books" the
report said. In other table COM
parsons, the latest figures available
for Washington were used.
The IL cities listed in order of
population are Cleveland, Balti-
more, st. Louis. Boston, Pittsburgh.
Washington, San Francisco. Mil
waukee, Buffalo, New Orleans,
Minneapolis and Cincinnati.
High in Revenue List.
In table 2, of general revenue data
for II cities in l943, Washington
ranks second on the basis of actual
revenue and second on the basis of
revenue per capita, which was listed
at 5000. This was exceeded only
by Boston with $l02.98 per capita
revenue. "Washington's high rank
in general revenue" said the re-
port, arises primarily because the
taxes levied elsewhere at the State
level and by other types of local
government are levied in Washing
ton by the one and only govern
mental unit
Per capita revenue also is dis
cussed in table TO-
Revenue Sources Examined.
Table shows the relative i'm
portance of taxes as source of
revenue compared with aid received
from other governments and with
earnings and miscellaneous revenue.
So far as the amount of aid re-
ceived is concerned, Washington is
not alone, but all the aid comes.
OF course, from the Federal Gov
ernment, whereas in other cities
some aid comes from the Federal
and some from the State govern
ment. Likewise, Washington is not
alone in the amount received from
earnings and miscellaneous sources.
Taxes, however. present a differ
ent picture from that of other
cities the report declares. This
is accounted for by the fact that
Washington lin performing some
functions of a State) receives some

period payments by the Federal
Government were on a fixed per-
centage basis.
The $3.50 basis: The fixed per-
centage system was established by
the act approved June IL, 1878, en-
titled AN act providing a perma-
nent form of government for the
District of Columbia" wherein it
was provided as follows: r..
To the extent to which Congress
shall approve of said estimates,
Congress shall appropriate the
amount of so per centum thereof
and the remaining so per centum
of such approved estimates shall
be levied and assessed upon the
taxable property and privileges in
said District other than the prop
erty of the United States and OF
the District of Columbia.
This basis of appropriating was
continued in effect through the As
cal year 1920.
The 40-60 basis: In making ap-
preparations for the District of Co.
lumbia for the fiscal year 1921 Con-
gress provided that 40 per cent oi
the sums necessary should be ap-
propriated out of any moneys In
the Treasury not otherwise appro-
priated, and 60 per cent out of the
revenues of the District of Colum-
bia A similar provision appeared
in the appropriation act for the fls-
cal year 1922, but it was not until
the appropriation act for 1928 that
this 40-60 basis of appropriating was
made permanent law.
80 Period 1925 to present.-Not-
withstanding the permanent law en-
acted in 1923, beginning with the
fiscal year 1925, Congress appropri-
ated the Federal share in a lump
sum each year. Payments under
this plan have varied as follows:

WASHINGTON--Last time, started to say that Section 30l of the CT Bill makes it possible for any ex-service man enlisted or commissioned to enter an appeal, if he's gripping about the kind of dis charge. dismissal, CT release he got whe he went back to the rough civilian way of living.
 Under the provisions of Section S0l, the Army and Navy have set up boards with full authority. They can scan, probe and hear all re- cords and evidence, old or new, bearing on any type of dismissal or discharge, except enc given by a General Court Martial.
 This set-up extends to any off csrs who left the service because of reclassification proceedings or who ware asked to resign for the good of the servioe.'
 Almost any veteran, therefore, can file an appeal Or, in the case of q deceased veteran, a surviving wife or husband or next-of kin, or a legal representative can file. Write to the War Department, The Adjut- ant Generals Office, Washington 25, T.. c, or the Navy Department, the Judge Advocate Generals Office, Washington 25, D. c. tor direct to the Nay Beard Of Reviews, Dis charges and Dismissals, Navy Tenn porary Building No. ?, Washington %, D. O.
 I'm tcld that appeal forms are in the hands of Red Cross as well as Veterans of Foreign Wars, Ameri- can Legion and some other veterans organizations.
 Anyway the boards, as far as I can find out, are now located in Washington, which means that com- paratively few veterans will be able to appear in person at the time their appeals come before the board. But a veteran has the right to appear, if desired, at his own expense.
 However, he can be represented by counsel. can file statement giving new evidence, and can have wit n1sses attend in person or by their written statement Gin affidavit formJ.
 If you're a veteran who intends to file an appeal and appear in per- son, I'd suggest that you shouldn't talk continuously as though you had sprung a leak. Just stick to the facts that mean something and answer questions honestly. You'll get fair treatment.
 Your counsel if you want one, can be any member of the bar, or an &C., credited epressntative of any one of list of organizations too long to rrint here-there are over fifty.
