cleaninss. Say, are you on the
level?" he demanded. Mr.. Morris
allowed pleasantly that he was.
Mr.. Morris says this cautious
attitude is fairly general. Describing
how life Is unfolding for him like
the petals Of a rose since he took
over the Democratic chairmanship
here, he told OF his call on Roy A.
Roberts. Kansas City Star presi-
dent. II want you to know what
we have in md" Mr.. Morris said
"And ask me any question about
myself you like"
12-Inch Thick Dossier.
MY boy" said Mr.. Roberts, kind
ly. I'VE already have dossier on
you IL inches thick"
The performance of any big city
machine is important in American
politics because they normally have
a profound effect on the way the
State goes In a national election
In the case OF Kansas City, a spe-
cial interest attaches because the
late Tom Pendergast put Harry
Truman in politics. Mr.. Truman's
loyalty to the old connection which
he utilized in an effort to put a
hostile Congress member, Roger
Slaughter, out Of business has op-
Grated to the Presidents detriment.
Mr.. Morris, captain Of intelli-
gence In Gen. Patton's Third Army,
was the window dressing choice of
the anti-Slaughter forces as chair
man of the county committee.
When the young war veteran, an
income-tax lawyer, learned how the
Pendergast back-seat driving op-
Grated to control elections, he was
upset. When the Stars efforts
eliminated in indictments for bare
faced vote-stealing he was even
more annoyed.
Mr.. Morris took his troubles to
Tom Evans, president of the Crown
Drug Co., millionaire backer and
intimate friend of Harry Truman.
II Jim Pendergast, nephew of Old
Tom, and various scandalous hench-
man, were really going to run the
show, Mr.. Morris said, he was bow
ing out. But II he could have the
help of the President and the Presi-
dents friends to clean house, the
young veteran continued, he would
undertake to change things.
Sales Talk Works Out.
He gave Mr.. Evans sales talk
The Pendergast crowd, he said, rep
resented an old order that was not
only in disrepute as of now but
could not hold the allegiance and
efforts Of the younger group of
veterans who by the nature of
things would eventually take over
affairs IN the city and county. Why
let these people, he argued, drift
into the Republican Party out OF
disgust with the Pendergast opera
tions9 Being young, they were not
conservatives by habit, Mr.. Morris
said, so why not seize the chance to
bring them into the Democratic
Party? *
Mr.. Morris sold Mr.. Evans. From
that point on, young Pendergast
who had. to be truthful, shown no
real appetite for power as his uncle
had, had little choice. He could
put up a hot scrap or accept the
inevitable. Present indications
point to the latter.
About three weeks ago, when
President Truman was in Kansas
City, Mr.. Morris called on him and
received his personal blessing. "You
have no idea how hard I've been
working for five months" Mr.. Morris
told the President earnestly.
Cheer up" the President said
wryly. 1--WE been struggling with
these problems for 35 wears"

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Question: Why do peaches turn
dark after canning? g.
Answer: Darkness throughout
the can usually shows over pro-
cessing or slow cooking. Darkness
just on top usually shows poor
seal or underprocessing.
Question: What can I use in
freezing peaches to keep them
from turning dark as they thaw?
Answer: Either citric acid or
ascorbic acid may be added when
the peaches are being prepared.
Ascorbic acid wit. c. tablets may
be added at the rate of Ia of
100 mig. potency or 5 of Is mig.
tablets per pit. of fruit. Or "a tea
spoon of powdered ascorbic acid
per cup of syrup Citric acid is
cheaper but does not add the Wit.
C that ascorbfc acid does. Dip
them for one minute into a solu-
ton of .citric acid made by dis
solving "a teasp. citric acid crys-
tails in a quatr of water. The dar-
kening is caused by contact with
the air and the acid retards that.
Question: What can I do to re-
move a black dye that ran from
a shoulder pad and discolored my
