Pow re r monopolies have
long experience in getting good
press treatment.
In fact, the activities of the
Power Trust have in the past
been the subject of investiga-
tons by Congress and the Fed
eral Trade Commission, which
exposed widespread corruption.
The FTC. for example. found
that the Power Trust was
spending as much as $50 mil
lion a year in 1929 in order TO
bride newspaper publishers to
white-wash the evils of private
power monopolies. More than
four out of every five U. S.
newspapers were corrupted in
this way. the FTC found. The
brides were usually in the form
of institutional" ads.
WHERE the Power Trust
thought it advisable, newspa-
pers were bought outright, or
were financed by the monopo-
lists.
One such newspaper. accord
ing to the ETC. was the Chi
cago Daily News. then owned
by Col. Frank C. Knox. Inter-
national Paper & Power Co..
a huge industrial giant con-
trolled by the Morgan and
Rockefeller interests. bought
$250.000 worth of preferred
stocks in the Daily News. plus
5000 shares of common stock.
Seventy five per cent of Inter
national Paper g. Powers
profits come from the sale of
electric power. &fft
Later it was reported that
latter the scandal Interna-
tional Paper & Power "sold out
all holdings"
But did it?
Last Fall -19 years later
when Marshall Field purchased
the Daily Times. if was learned
that International Paper Co..
a wholly owned subsidiary of
International Paper-& Power.
owned some 5000 shares of
Times stock. while Archibald
r. Graustein. former president
of International Paper. held in
addition one of the largest
block of stocks. The Times also
was indebted to International
Paper for $2l2 million in the
form of debentures.
Did all of this play any part
in the decision of the Sun and
Times-and the other Chicago
dailies-to oppose public own
ership?

r. MorganS puppets, VINO
J.. run the Commonwealth
Edison Co., are feeling pretty
good these days.
They expect the City Coun-
Gil to come through any day
now with a new franchise that
will again give then authority
to rob Chicago consumers of
millions of dollars annually
through outrageously high light
bills.
And the ironic twist to the
whole affair is that Common
wealth Edison has been MAX
ing the people of Chicago foot
the bill for the whole cam
paign against public owner
ship. which would mean light
bills a third to half lower
than those now charged!
NOT ONE daily newspaper
in Chicago has taken up the
fight for public ownership,
despite the obvious benefits to
the people.
What was the reason for
their support of Commonwealth
Edison? Was It because the
company the argesf power
monopoly in the U.S.-has been
paying $4,000 to 100000 a
year to the papers for "institu-
tiona1" advertisements?
The income from these ads
meant lot to the papers, but
it's doubtful that they brought
Commonwealth Edison as much
as a dollars worth of extra
business.
IF THAT'S SO. why did
Commonwealth Edison waste"
so much money?
The answer is that the money
wasn't wasted - and it didn't
come out of the company's
pockets: it came out of yours.
For Commonwealth Edison
kept in mind what NH. Ayles-
worth, chief national lobbyist
for the Power Trust, told the
monopolies' advertising men a
few years ago:
All the money being spent
is worth while E. Don't be
afraid of the expense. The
public pays the expense"
The public pays through
higher light bills.
A NEW FRANCHISE. if
granted by the City Council,
will prove once again the abil-
ity of Commonwealth Edison
to win friends and influence
newspapers through judicious
use of paid ads.
These ads, which make the
business managers and, as a
result, the editorial writers
so pleased with Commonwealth
Edison as paying customer,
fall into three categories: ''ter-

FRUIT AND BERRY
STAINS REMOVED

Many homemakers are con-
tronted with stains from fruits
and berries during these sum-
mer months. The most impor-
tant thing in any fruit or ber-
ry stain is immediate treatment.
Any stain except peach, pear,
cherry, or plum found on cotton
linen or washable rayonS can
be removed by pouring boiling
water over the stain. Sometimes
even warm water is effective
in removing the stain. The
stained part should be
stretched over a bowl, fastened
with a string and the boiling
water poured from a tea ket-

tie held three or four feet above
the bowl so that the water will
strike the stain with force.
Rubbing the stained area be-
tween the hands alternated
with the boiling water often
helps stubborn stains. If the
stain still remains, lemon juice
should be squeezed on it. Then
it should be placed in the sun
to dry.
Boiling water should never
be used on silk, wool, or non
washable rayons. To remove any
stain from these three fabrics,
the stain should be well
sponged with cool water. After
the area is thoroughly damp
ened, glycerine or a soapless
shampoo should be worked into
the stain while rubbing the
stain lightly between the
hands. After standing for sew
eral hours a few drops of vim
egar or oXalic acid should be
applied and allowed to remain
on the stain for a minute or
two. Finally the stain should
be rinsed thoroughly in water.

SAYS CARE OF FOOD
IS VERY IMP

Care of the food after it has
been canned is almost as i'm
portant as the actual canning
process. Recent studies have
shown that "a" quality canned
goods will fall to &c" quality in
a years time if not stored pro-
perly. If the canned food is
stored in a cool, dry, dark place
there will he a good retention
of food value, a better flavor
and a more desirable color and
texture.
Heat is the most destructive
factor in spoilage of i2ods. Elk
periments have shown that
fruit canned in tin stored at
So degrees F. dissolved the met
al coating of the tin eontainer
8 times as fast as fruit stored
at 80 degrees F. Although this
simple chemical reaction of the
food in tin cans is not actually
harmful, the color and the fla
vor of the food are often af-
fected. If a food is stored for
long periods at a high tempera-
ture, it is possible for the metal
to wear so thin that perfera-
tionS will occur in the can. This
results in air leakage and the
contents will spoil.
Foods stored in glass jars are
equally sensitive to poor storage
conditions. Heat and moisture
affect the jar rubber or rubber
compound in the metal lids
causing air leakage and spoil
age. In addition, the color of
foods canned in glass is easily
faded by light, indicating some
loss of nutrients.
Records show that spoilage
is so to rs per cent greater
during the summer than during
the winter months. In canning
foods during the cooler part of
the day losses were much less
than foods canned during the
hottest part of the day. 1t was
also observed that flat sour
spoilage was caused by certain
bacteria that ttrived between
the temperatures of 100. and
100 degrees F. If the foods
were kept cool, the bacteria
would remain dormant, not
causing spoilage or harming
the food in any way.
