 These battles for control" he said can be pre- -nted if the leaders Of the Republican Party will aopt the simple measure Of denying seats in the ext national convention to delegates from the South territories insular possessions and the District of Columbia unless these delegates are selected as the esult oi Presidential preference primaries.
 Reference to the history Of the wars which have een Wageo over these delegates Is unnecessary The. 9emedy IS simple effective, fair and equitable If the majority oi the Republicans and those who wish to become affiliated with the Republican Party in these political subdivisions believe candidate VII make better President than other candidates they can imply vote for him in a primary.
 As result no cliques or factions will control O smoke-ftled rooms will be possible the candidate eceiying the nomination will be. the choice of the Iepunhcans rom the states which must furnish the electora votes to elect him and not the choice of group comprised of a combination of non-electoral vote subdivisions plus the delegates from sufficient 9umner Of electoral votes states to constitute ma jority of the convention delegates"
 Sounds reasonable. It's a reform long overdue

Your Health
By WILLIAM BRADY. M. D.

Fresh meat of any kind is a poor buy at anything over 70 cents a pound, in my judgment. I go for roast beef, ham, roast pork, pork chops, veal outlets and the like remember the good old days?-but not when these cost a dollar a pound.
 All right, then. What shall we eat in place of meat until the bulls and hogs simmer down again?
 Well, I'll tell you--but if you happen to be a steak hound don't throw things--T'm merely trying to tell you how one can maintain { Od nutrition while meat is on the luxury list.
 In the first place, so far as cal- ories or energy go. one will never miss meat at all. Wheat, oats, corn and rice are all much better sources of calories or energy in the every day diet.
 In the next place neither beef nor pork supplies protein material of biological value (amino-acid con- tenD as high as the protein of milk or that of eggs.
 Oh, oh, eggs are out, too, aren't they? The egg people are out, that is-gallivantin' with the meat men.
 But milk and milk products are still within sight and I plunk for milk as the best food buy for man. woman or child--not less than a quart a day for each child, not less than pint a day for each adult.
 This daily milk consumption need not necessarily be just straight milk. Modify it to suit your whim to taste-straight raw milk eff you know it is pure), Certified Milk, Pasteurized Milk. homogenized milk, condensed milk, evaporated milk, dried powdered milk, skim milk, top milk, cream, butter. buttermilk, Acidophilus milk. Bulgarian milk, Youghurt, sour milk. scalded or boiled milk, custars, ice cream, any ard every kind of cheese. these are all the best food any one can eat.
 Then there's fish. The protein material or fish is virtually identi- cal with the protein material of meat, SO far as human nutrition goes. Ounce for ounce of edible portion fish yields practically the same number of calories or the same amount of energy as meat does, sea fish and fresh water fish. Shellfish. such as lobster, crab, oyster, clam, shrimp, tho good eat ing when you can get 'em, fall far short of other fish in nutrition value.
 Years ago I might have said a lot of people would be better oil without eating any meat at all, but the notion on which that view of meat in the diet was based has been discarded in the light of newer knowledge of nutrition. It is my present conviction that few persons, in good health or poor health, can- not eat a reasonable amount of good red meat So far as We know, meat has no more to do with "autointoxi- cation" high blood pressure or di- sease of the kidneys than other good food has.

COP Party Fight

WASHINGTON. Nov Reflection of a Republic Congress officially opened the battle for the party i948 Presidential nomination
 It has brought an interesting suggestion for r, form in picking delegates from the South to the nes national convention.
 This suggestion comes from the South, and aimed at stopping the notorious traficking in dele gates in some Southern states. which is an oper scandal. There is lively overt counter trade ir delegates among bosses who deal in hand-picked delc gations known, colloquially kept delegations"
 Now comes wilson Williams. Republican nation committeeman from Georgia to suggest that this of traffic be stopped by holding preferential Presi dential primaries in the South al which candidate for the nomination could enter themselves for pop ular test by ballot in Southern states This has ofte been discussed privately in Republican circles.
 Mir. Williams announced Georgia would hold preferential primary in i948.
 The target of this campaign is Senator Robei A. Taft of Ohio, who has had control of a numbe Of Southern state delegations through local bosse beginning with the l940 convention which he wa nosed out by Wendell L. Wllkie.
 There is no secret about the situation, has bee well known such for a long time It is his job tc keep the Southern bosses the string from year to year. The kingpn of the Southern bosses is R. B Creager, national committeeman from Texas who was the Senator's floor manager the 1880 conven. ton.

Frances Magnes
Hailed in Violin
Recital Here
BY Alice Eversmon

Introducing herself locally through
the medium of recital last night
in the National Gallery of Art
Frances Magnes proved to be a
violinist of exceptional endowment
who won instant favor with the
audience. The wholesomeness of her
tone, which is also broad and pure
in quality, the security of both
fingers and bow arm and a fiery
temperament were the essentials of
her artistry that kept interest at a
high peak.
At the same time, the excellence
'of her gift also constitutes her
limitations for she is inclined to
rely on her superb technical prowess
and her healthy response to the ex-
.citement of the music to gain her
effects. The latter is released at
the slightest provocation and not
always in keeping with the style OF
the composition. In the Brahms
Sonata in A major it gave a robust

'Ritornel" and the PAgAnini "Ca-
price No. a." concluded the pro-
gram. The name Of Mr.. Haief1 Is
unfamiliar and no data regarding
him Is at hand. but the three short
numbers showed imaginative crea-
tive ability In a modernistic vein.
The dashing content Of the Polka"
and the "Ritornel," as we'll as the
Paganini Caprice, were played
with the particular brilliancy that
Miss Magnes commands so well.
Throughout the program she had
the very able and sympathetic as
sistance Of Harry Kondas at the

All that was back when Ruth
Gordon was just an actress and her
husband, Carson Kanin, an Army
captain. They made a spot of news
now and then, but nothing like they
do since they became the theaters
most prolific team It is dull Mon
day that they don't turn up with
something out of the ordinary.
This one is not dull because it is
the Monday on which the Kanins
announce that, in addition to hav-
ing one prize play on their hands,
his Born Yesterday" a comedy of
hers, Miss Jones'" slated for pro-
duction in October, and two new
comedies about ready for produc-
ton, they have decided to turn pro-
ducers. Not of their own dramatic
works, which will be left to the un-
related Max Gordon, but of a play
by Donald Ogden Stewart.
This production business, the
Kanins want 1t understood, is not
to be a permanent thing in their
lives. They simply find themselves
very fond of Mr.. Stewart and his
work, the latter comedy called
How I Wonder" They would like
to bring it in under their auspices,
after which they will revert to
merely writing and directing plays.
At the rate of two season.
Stewards play, described as "a
comedy about the world today as
observed by professor of as
tronomy in an American university"
is the sort of thing that might
catch production fancies other than
those of the Kanins They took
care of such contingency by sign
ing the author to let them do 1t for
him.

OF the composers most joyous and
lyrical moods. More distinction was
brought into the Andante, where
the artists quieter approach per-
mitted her tone to soar so that its
quality could be fully appreciated.
Miss Magnes is addicted to swift
tempt and sometimes to rhythmic
inaccuracy as in the Bach Suite
in E minor" In the almost doubled
tempo in which she played the
"Preludio," both the form and style
suffered and some of this affected
the most appealing music of Wieni-
awski's Concerto in D minor"
Miss Magnes Is not yet sufficiently
skilled in differentiating the styles
Of composers and each on yester-
days program was presented in
much the same manner.
