This Cook
Boiled : By
Senate Group

WASHINGTON, d. c. (NNPA)
Oscar r. Ewing. Federal Sc
curity Administrators. last Friday
lodged a protest with the Senate
Appropriations Committee over
the manner in which committee
employees had grabbed a cook
in his private dining room in
the Federal Security Building
and hustled him before a Sen
ate subcommittee last Thursday.
The cook. Nesser J. Kelly. told
a senate appropriations subcom-
mittee that he was a chief cook
at St Elizabeth Hospital. a Fed
eral institution. where he pre-.
pared meals for about 1000 pa
tients, but he had been assigned
to spend about five hours daily
preparing luncheon for Mr. Ewing
and his guest in private kit
chen in the Federal Security
Building,
COMMON PRACTICE
The practice Of high Govern
ment officials having meals pre-.
pared in private kitchens and
served 10 them in private dining
rooms in Government buildings
is widespread In the Pentagon
Building soldiers are assigned TO
prepare and serve meals in an
elaborate setting for the Secre-
tary Of the Army
In letter addressed TO Sen
ator William F Knowland, Re-
publican. OF California, chairman
OF the subcommittee on Labor
Department-Federsl Security ap-
preparations. Mr.. Ewing branded
the conduct OF committee EN-.
ployees as "an outrageous use
OF totalitai'ian police methods
against an unoffending Govern
ment employees
AT the outset. ! want TO pro-
test against the outrageous con-
duct OF two OF your committee S
investigators yesterday august
81" Mr. Ewing wrote Senator
Knowland. adding:
While Mr.. Neaser ]. Kelly. a
Negro cook. was finishing the
preparation OF lunch for six
members Of the Administration s
staff and myeslf, two of your
investigators. who gave THEN
names as Graves and Sanborn
forced their way into the kit
chen in this building, and COM
PEELED Mr.. Kelly to accompany
them Immediately and appear
before your committee
Mr.. Kelly was not even given
the ordinary courtesy OF per-
mission to put on his regular
clothes or getting his hat Fur
thermore. he was denied per-
mission TO talk 70 anyone
This action represents an out
rageouS use OF totalitarian police
methods against an offendinr
Government employee II was
wholly unnecessary because you
will know that whenever your
committee desires the presence
OF any employee OF this agency
il need only advise us and the
person in question will be on
hand"
sTUDEBAKER ouTMoDED1
Mr. Ewing told press con-
ference last Friday that he wants
to keep the cook. but was glad
TO get rid OF John w. Stude.

ton. who resigned and Later

Administrator with suppressine

Admitting that he had used
Kelly to prepare his luncheon,
Mr.. Ewing said the Budget Bu-

dure was proper.

Heart Rests at Sea Lepel

Descent to sea level from a high
altitude does afford some rest for
the heart" according to the Jour
nal of the American Medical Asso.
citation.
1t is calculated that at $4,000 feet
the heart works about 20 per cent
harder to accomplish 20 per cent
less work than at sea level. The
pressure Of the air at higher alti.
tudes is much less than it is at sea
level, and therefore the pressure of
the oxygen which is breathed in is
also decreased. For this reason, the
heart has to work harder to supply
the necessary oxygen to the tissues.
Even climbing in a plane from sea
level to $500 feet increases the work
Of the heart. However, the Journal
says, few instances of serious con-
sequence, even in those who have
heart disease, have ever been re-
ported as a result of airplane
flights"

Income Tnx News

Everyone. adult or minor, re
gardlless of age. who had $4,000
or more income in 1948 must file
a Federal income tax return on
Form 1O40 or Form l040-A.
Final returns for the calendar
year 1913 must be filed not later
than March IS, 1949, but may be
filed any time after the end of the
year, December 81, 1948.
January IS, 1949 is also an I'M
portant date for many taxpayers.
1t does not concern most wage
earners whose tax is withheld but
all others who are required by law
TO file a Declaration of Estimated
tax must pay the final installment
of their 1948 estimated tax by jan
uary IS, l949. This date is es-
pecially important to farmers or
those who receive at least two
thirds of their income from farm
ing operations. While other bust
ness and professional men are re-
quired to file a Declaration Of Es-
timated tax bv March 18th of the
year, and to pay their es-
timated tax in quarterly Install
ments, farmers may postpone filing |
not later than January IS, l949. |

SpoiIage in Canned Foods

Spoilage in canned foods may be
due to several causes. It can be
cut down by canning only the best
quality of food. Be sure all eouin-
ment and jars are clean. Get the
canning done while the vegetables
or fruits are fresh and process them
thoroughly. Seal jars we'll and store
them in cool and dry place. Vel
low crystals may show up in aspar-
agus, greens and green beans. Thev
are harmless, and boiling will dis
solve most Of them. White CRYSTALS
in canned spinach also are harm
less White sediment in jars NAV
indicate spoilage or may be caused
by hard water or table salt. Cloudy
liquid in vegetables may be from
starch cooked out of them or from
Aat-sour and other types of spoil
age. Boil any doubtful vegetables
before tasting.
The Western news. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1933-current, 1948-12-09

Of tax shown to be due is paid on
or before January IS, 1919 A final
return filed at that time, instead
of by March 18th. takes the place
of either a declaration or an amend
ed declaration otherwise due by
January 18th This feature of the
law is of special benefit to farmers
who would otherwise be required to
file a declaration of estimated tax
and to pay the estimated tax by
January 18th, and then file a final
return by March 18th.
Where a declaration of estimated
tax for l948 is due and one has not
previously been filed, it should be
filed on Form 1040-ES by January
IS, 1919 unless a final return is filed
at that time in lieu of declaration
Final returns must be filed on
either one of two Forms. Form
l040 or Form 1040-A, depending on
the nature of the income to be re-
ported. If your total income was
less than S500000 and consisted en-
tlrely of wages reported on With |

Demand Cor Plant Fnnd

Farmers used approximately 1917
million tons Of fertilizer in l947 com
pared with an average of 7iA million
tons in the 1859 period A large
part Of this heavy demand for plant
food results from the fact that farm
ers are becoming more aware that
they are selling soil fertility with
the grain, meat and milk they mar
ket. They realize that their soils
virgin storehouse of plant nutrients
is running low and must be re-
stocked, Middle West Soil Improve
ment committee points out. To
meet the increased demand, fertil-
izer companies not only have in
creased their production capacity
but also are expanding their mining
operations.

Stock Market Turns
lower
In Quiet Session
BY Victor Eubonk
As,oeioisd Press FinoneioI Writer

NEW YORK, Feb. 26. - Today's
stock market reverted to sluggish
ness and irregularly lower ten
denotes.
The ticker tape frequently halted
after Q fairly active start. While
modest advances were shown for
selected issues, fractional minus
signs predominated near. the fourth
hour.
The two-session recovery inspired
some profit casi1ing by quick-turn
professionals who viewed the
comeback as mainly technical.
Brokerage customers trimmed ac-
counts because of doubts regard
ing European situations, particular
ly the Czechocloyakian coup; taxes,
business and labor.
Goods earnings and dividends
aided such issues as Packard, Union
Pacific, American Rolling Mill and
Follansbee Steel.
