Women's Platform
K FEW YEARS AGO a group oi
top flight Republicans met at
Mackinac Island, Mich., for the
purpose trf preparing a statement
of Republican principles. What
they issued after several days of
argument, straddled every debat-
able subject, with each one so
wound up in weasel words that
any interpretation on any subject
eould be made to fit any occasion.
Ihat set of principles was not se-
riously accepted by any one, in-
cluding those who prepared it.
At the last three Republican
national conventions the party .
platform as adopted has been
largely an endorsement of the
New Deal without definitely
saying so. In the last election
campaign the party orators
had nothing other than “unity"
to talk about. Before a meeting
of the Republican national com-
mittee at Omaha last spring,
committees had been named
to examine and report on num-
erous subjects from which to
establish party principles. Only
one such committee report was
presented, and it was not read.
The party, as such, has not been
able to get together in formulating
the principles it stands for, or what
it represents. The result has been
defeat in five presidential cam-
paigns.
When the men cannot agree
it is time to leave It to the
Republican women. Down in
the southern end of California
there is the Republican wom-
en’s federation of San Diego
county, with headquarters in
San Diego, and with Mrs.
Rachel H. Wylies as president.
Those Republican women have
drafted a program of party
principles they are submitting
to other Republican organiza-
tions, including the national
and state committees.
The statement is concise, direct
and definite, containing no weasel
words. In no case is there left any
possibility of doubt as to the mean-
ing, no possibility of more than one
interpretation. There is no effort
at special appeal to pressure group
minorities. It says exactly what
those women of San Diego county
federation believe the Republican
party stands for, or at least, what
they believe it should.
Just as an illustration here is
one of the 32 paragraphs: “7.
Oppose government competi-
tion with private enterprise.”
Personally I believe that plat-
form would attract a majority of
the voters of the nation, because it
is honest and makes no attempt to
carry water on both shoulders. In
many years of side-line observing
of both our major parties I have
never encountered a platform, or
statement of principles, expressed
as concisely, directly, definitely,
or fearlessly as does the one
adopted by the Republican women
of San Diego county, California.
The San Diego Evening Tribune
says there is only one thing wrong
about it: “It is not the platform
of the party in power.”
The party that presents such
» platform to the voters of the
nation, in my opinion, would
become the party in power fol-
lowing the next presidential
election. It has taken the wom-
en of the party to show the
way. They, I am sure, have
demonstrated that they are
more discerning, more capable
of interpreting public senti-
ment than party organizations
dominated by men have been.
That platform, just as written by
the Republican women of San
Diego, is the shot in the arm the
Republican party needs, and which
the men have been afraid to ad-
minister. It proposes a govern-
ment based on the constitution, and
one whose only purpose is that of
governing without regimentation.
That is what the women have said
in their 32 brief paragraphs.
_*_
Former President Herbert Hoover
gives careful consideration to any
statement he may make. In his
address at Palo Alto, on the oc-
casion of his 75th birthday, he said
that through government spending
we are traveling the last mile of
the road to collectivism. His is a
powerful voice in America. He
utters a warning that should be
heeded if our American economic
system, our American way of life,
our prosperity and our cherished
liberties are to be saved from the
“isms” of Europe, and from our
theoretical dreamers. The time left
us for action is all too short.
_*_
Some of the automobile insurance
companies cancel policies they
write on cars when they are driven
by teen-agers because of reckless
driving by the kids.
We propose to give our war
surplus supplies to our Euro-
pean allies because they are
outmoded and no longer of
value to us. If outmoded and no
value to us, of what value can
they be to those European al-
lies? We can expect them to
ask that question.

Have your Meat Tender, Delicious, Juicy
(See Recipes Below)
Meat Magic
tpHERE DOES SEEM to be a
^ magical quality about meats
which are cooked to juicy, tender
perfection. How-
ever, it’s not a
mystic magic
which all aspire
to, and few
achieve. If
there is a
secret, it’s
available to all.
It is no secret that you should
have a good cut of meat with which^
to start, if you want to have a de-
licious cut to set on the table. But
once you have a good cut, do cook
it properly instead of ruining it.
This latter statement may sound
a bit far-fetched, but every day
there are thousands of women who
go to a great deal of trouble find-
ing a perfect roast, then cook it
like a pot roast which is practically
stewing it. Then, too, there are
other thousands who lose pounds
of meat by using old-fashioned
methods such as high temperature
for “browning” the meat. This is
not necessary because meat
cooked at constant low tempera-
ture will brown enough to be at-
tractive to the most discerning eye,
and will not shrink and lose juice
as well as waste meat.
If you have a covered roaster,
resolve right now to discard the
cover and invest in a rack for a
roast. A true roast is not, at any
point during roasting, cooked withf
a cover. It should sit on a rack, fat
side up, at low to moderate tem-
perature in the oven, to roast per-
fectly.
How long should a roast be
cooked? The most accurate way of
determining this is to insert a meat
thermometer into the meat as you
place it in the oven, and when the
temperature has reached its proper
point the roast is done. Insert the
thermometer through the center,
as deep into the meat as possible.
You may figure out the time to
roast by pounds, but this is not
nearly so accurate, especially if
you are cooking roast beef to med-
ium rare.
W
HEN PROPERLY PREPARED
corned beef can be a real
delicacy. The meat is muscular,
and needs to be cooked long and
slowly for real tenderness, without
which it is not a delicacy by any
manner of means. Here’s a novel
way to prepare it:
Glazed Corned Beef
6-7 pounds corned beef
cup canned fruit juice
Y.s cup brown sugar
10 whole cloves
Spiced peaches
Wash corned beef under running
Water to remove all traces of brine.
Cover with cold water and bring
to a boil. Drain and replace water.
Simmer, slowly, in a covered ket-
tle for 4% to 5 hours or until meat
can be pierced easily with a fork.
/ dd more water if necessary.
Drain meat and place on a rack
in a roaster. Pour fruit juice over
meat and sprinkle with brown
sugar. Stick with cloves. Bake in
a moderate oven (350°) for Vi hour.
Serve, garnished with spiced
peaches.

Hoover Deserving
TTERBERT HOOVER, as the only
A* living ex-president of the
United States deserves all the re-
spect and well wishes of the people
to which his 75 years and his posi-
tion entitle him.
Named by President Truman to
head a commission created by con-
gress to work out a reorganization
of the federal government, he did
a splendid job and the recommen-
dations of this bi-partisan commis-
sion have been acclaimed as sound
and necessary and have been given
the unqualified approval of Pres-
ident Truman. And the President
is seeking, with indifferent suc-
cess, to have many of these recom-
mendations approved by the con-
gress.
But something is happening
to the bi-partisanship of the
Hoover commission and its rec-
ommendations. Already there
is a flood of propaganda going
out from half a dozen different
organizations which seem to
have a common backing and
a common purpose to “sell”
the Hoover commission to the
people.
From observations here, there
is every indication that the GOP
leadership will seek to build Mr.
Hoover and his commission report
into an issue in the 1950 elections.

SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS
FIRST AID to the
AILING HOUSE
by Roger C. Whitman
QUESTION: We have just
moved into our new home. We
were told to stain our kitchen cabi-
nets and then wax them. After
living in the house a month we
found that the cabinets were be-
coming stained and marred by the
water splashing on the wood. We
would like to remove the wax and
restain and then varnish them. Is
there anything we can use to re-
move the wax from the cabinets
without harming the wood?
ANSWER: Turpentine is a sol-,
vent for wax; use it liberally to re-
move all traces of wax. The liquid
is inflamable, so ventilate the
room while working and shut off
all pilot lights and refrigerator. If
you wish to apply another stain of
the same, color, this can go right
on over the old one, although the
second staining will make the
color still darker. If you wish to
lighten the color, you can apply a
wood bleach, on sale at large
paint stores.
Brains, after pre-cooking, make
a delicious dish when dipped in
seasoned flour, then browned in
fat and serve with creamy
scrambled eggs.
Hearts need a lot of long slow
cooking to make them tender. Veal
hearts are especially good when
filled with prune stuffing, then
braised.
To shorten the cooking time for
heart, cut in in cubes and brown
in hot fat. Then fold into tomato
sauce t-sed for spaghetti and bake
the whole casserole for 30 minutes.
Mr. Hoover has become some
sort of a “symbol” in the Republi-
can party, for not only is he the
only living ex-president, but he is
the last Republican president
elected to office in 21 years, having
been elected in 1928. So Mr.
Hoover’s name was the only one
which was greeted with marked ap-
plause at the recent “kick-off for
’50” dinner held here on the oc-
casion of the election of Guy Gab-
rielson of New Jersey as the new
GOP national chairman. Whether
it was coincidental or not, the prin-
cipal speaker at this dinner was
Will Hays, the ex-movie czar, who
is the last living successful nation-
al chairman of the Republican
party. Hays was national chairman
from 1918 to 1921 when Warren
Harding was elected president. Mr.
Hoover’s national chairman was
Hubert Work of Colorado, chair-
man from 1928 to 1929 and who re-
signed as secretary of interior to
take the job. He died in 1942. Wil-
liam Butler, who was Coolidge’s
national chairman from 1924 ^ to
1928, also is deceased.
Hugh Scott of Pennsylvania,
the retiring GOP national
chairman, who was at
the party helm during the 1948
fiasco, put the 64-dollar ques-
tion to the assembled Repub-
licans when he asked: “I know
that mogt of you are constantly
confronted, as I am, with the
query, what does the Republi-
can party stand for?’ ”
Scott could only point out to the
successive party platforms adopted
each four years and which the
party record in the congress, at
least up to this point, fails to up-
hold.
Hoover as Forecaster
Mr. Hoover, on the occasion of
his 75th birthday, again assumed
the role of forecaster, although his
reputation for predictions made in
1932 was sadly tarnished. But he
set the pattern and the theme the
GOP campaign will * take in 1950
when he predicted that we are “on
the last mile to collectivism, bliss-
fully driving down the back road
to it at top speed.”
He referred to the concentra-
tion of power in the federal
government and presumably
the “back road” is such pro-
grams as support of farm
crops, rural electrification,
farm price supports, old age
pensions, survivors insurance,
reclamation of natural re-
sources into public power,
rural telephones, public hous-
ing, unemployment compensa-
tion and the many other bene-
fits which Republicans and
Dixiecrats now declare com-
prise a “welfare state.”
Of course there is a “main road”
to collectivism to which Mr.
Hoover did not refer and that is
the concentration of economic pow-
er in the hands of a few private
enterprisers a la the Hitler, Mus-
solini technique. But there is little
question but that from now on we
will hear much of this so-called
“welfare state,” of socialism and
collectivism and that Mr. Hoover’s
“last mile” will be used plenty by
the GOP high command in the
coming campaign.

Malaria Still Regarded
Greatest ‘Mass’ Killer
Although malaria, mankind’s
greatest killer, no longer claims
its toll among the world’s great as
it did before discovery of quinine,
the disease still remains the “most
important in the world from the
standpoint of prevalence.”
The yearly number of cases
throughout the world is estimated
at 600 million with 3 million
deaths.
Even in the United States, be-
tween one and five million cases
occur annually with an estimated
1200 deaths.
By claiminf such figures as
Alexander the Great, Lord Byron,
Oliver Cromwell, King James I
of England, and a dozen or more
popes a^nong its victims, malaria
through the ages has enormously
influenced world history.
