onion is an oil that blends with

fore, a good way to capture and
extend the full flavor in stews
or stuffings is to heat chopped
onions in a little fat few minutes
and then add to the other in

applies to salads. Add chopped

Reed Blasts Robbery
In rC Handling Of
Rail Bankruptcies
BY the Assoeioted Press

Senator Reed, Republican of Kan
sas, said yesterday he is ready to
impeach" members of the Interstate
Commerce Commission if that is
necessary to get change in the
handling of some railroad bank
ruptcies.
He told a news conference he
always had been a supporter of the
ICC but Il don't like to see my fell
low citizens robbed through stupidity
Of Government agency"
The Senator's complaint was
against certain reorganization plans
which he said failed to take account
OF enormous wartime earnings of
once-bankrupt lines, and wiped out
the claims of stockholders and unse-
cured creditors.
He called it "legalized robbery"
and announced that the railroad
subcommittee of the Senate Inter-
state and Foreign Commerce Com
mittee, which he heads, will hold
early hearings on the subject.
Il think the Interstate Commerce
Commission has been grossly dis
regarding the obligations it owes
the public interests in handling
these railroad reorganizations,
Senator Reed asserted. x =.
The case of the st. Louis South
western Railway-generally known
as the Cotton Belt'-was cited by
Senator Reed as "a 100 per cent
illustration" of what he called
'legalized robbery"
Here is a railroad clearly in
solvent in 1885," he said. He re-
counted ICC approval of plans
which wipe out s45, 30 ,00O' in
common and preferred stocks and
unsecured creditors claims.
Freed From Bankruptcy.
After an agreement between
creditors and debtors, Senator Reed
added, the road obtained discharge
from bankruptcy.
Senator Reed said the Commission
found that the holders Of the pre-
ferred and common stock were not
to participate in the reorganization.
He quoted Chairman White of the.
Senate Interstate and Foreign Com
merce Committee as saying:
This is the most outrageous thing
I ever heard Of. This matter, ought
to be given attention" ~
Senator Reed released copies of a
letter to him from Senator White
which suggested an inquiry by his
subcommittee into such carrier re-
organizations.
Senator Reed said no date has
been set for the hearings, but they
will be called promptly"

about in the tea business. Oh, how
my friends in London, Dorset and
Basingtoke would howl in anguish
at the mere suggestion
Three Basic Kinds
The expert says:
There are three basic kinds OF
tea, black, green and oolong. They
are all made from leaves from the
same bush. The difference is
that black tea is fermented before
is is heat-treated, green tea is not,
and oclong is semi-fermented.
within these broad classes are
hundreds of varieties which mostly
get their names from the dis
tricts where they grow. Like OAR
feeling. 1t is a fine tea from OAR
feeling in India. And Assam tea
comes from the nearby province OF
Assam. Pekoe and orange pekoe,
on the other hand, are not kinds
OF tea at all They are merely
terms used to denote the leaf sizes
OF black tea
To Make Tea
On the making of tea, the eX-
pert, Charles F.. Hutchinson, Uni
ted States tea examiner, says:
Many of us do not make tea
correctly. You should use one tea
spoon OF tea leaves or one tea bag
for each cup. Pour briskly boil
ing water over the leaves. Let it
steep for at least three minutes.
Five is even better"
Tea, it is said, is drunk by more
human beings than any beverage
except water. This I readily be-
lieve. Coffee as served demi-tasse
in the spots visited in India was
a repulsively bitted and thick con-
coction that was sweetened to the
excess by the addition OF sugar to
kill the bitterness. Then you need
ed something to kill the sweetness.
If you were smart you brewed tea.
