THIS WEEK IN WASHINGTON Washington, D. C.—There was a period in American history that still is referred to as "The Era of Good Feeling." It was terminated about 1825, after lasting from the start of the War of 1812, by the candidacy of turbulent Andy Jackson. The period was one during which everybody minded his own business and the politicians were shoved into the background. Not a few students of history are likening the present situation in Washington to that which obtained in those days. The expected cat-and-dog fight between Congress and the President has failed to materialize. Instead, one sees on every hand a sincere desire on the part of the leaders of both big parties to make a very genuine effort to save the country from its present economic ill. The Reconstruction Finance Corporation, now beginning to function, has met with hearty approval from everybody. President Hoover's choice of the men who will control its policies is receiving equally warm approval. General Dawes, the whole country feels, is the one man who can cut all red tape and make the new huge financial giant work quickly and efficiently. His work as head of the Service of Supply during the war showed that he is no respecter of traditions when there is a job to be done. Second only in popularity is the selection of Eugene Meyer as chairman of the board. Meyer is a man who can be relied upon, when Dawes outlines a plan, to explain just how to go about achieving it, without going into details as to why it cannot be done. A third man who will be powerful in the R. F. C. is Ogden L. Mills. Under Secretary of the Treasury and for the past few months its practical spokesman, Secretary Mellon is undoubtedly feeling the weight of his years and is having most of his life spent in visiting in Southern California this week received cordial invitation from President Thad S. Smith of the Montana State Society of Long Beach to attend the annual picnic to be held at Bixby Park, Long Point hill clovel and nutmeg. Sheriff L. Jackson Must Turn Diplomat on Japanese Problem Chinese aren't the only ones with Japanese on their hands. Sheriff Logan Jackson has his own Nipponese problem, right in the county jail at Santa Ana, too. Entreaties differ, however, with the Sino-Japanese problem of the near east, though the latest note is diplomatic in the extreme. The reason advanced this time is that one Fred Mullens who resides in the Jackson bastile is needed "for our farming machinery and automobiles repairing on salary bases." The note which has Sheriff Jackson sitting up as late as Secretary Stimson reads: "Mr. Logan Jackson. Orange County Sheriff. Santa Ana, California. "Sir: We undersigned herewith that if you are granted a probation upon Mr. Fred Mullens of Huntington Beach, California, who is now Orange county jail, Santa Ana, California. If you kindly accept our petition we are surely guarantees and employ him at once for our farming machinery and automobiles repairing on salary bases. "Mr. Fred Mullens is an expert of machinery in the vicinity of Huntington Beach, California, and we know him more than three years and we are certainly trusting him that he does very good service in satisfactory for us. Also our farming season has come already so we need him very much. "We shall greatly appreciate it if you granted our petition thanking you in anticipation for this courtesy. Respectfully yours, "J. Sato K. Horita. S. Sugita T. S. Ban." Montanans Invited to Attend Annual Picnic Montanans now living or visiting in Southern California this week received cordial invitation from President Thad S.

French In France ice creams are sometimes America if not actually cream is assuredly a commodity. It has in easy reach of all. Perhaps plentiful advantages, but what food becomes common how robbed of some the French point of portion of cream on large. It should not mere food—mere meat should be only a meal a pleasing contrast viands. Ices and ice are very often serv silver dishes—that lose small porringers. To scoopful of the ice "Glace vanille"—most usually found and is usually well sherbet is usual eno a vanilla ice—a very more tempting. If you are going to bring home an venir, get a set of glace dishes—the diary very little porringer have friends for dinner want to offer an unserving of the sweet some sort of sherbet these little French ones the war showed that he is no respecter of traditions when there is a job to be done. Second only in popularity is the selection of Eugene Meyer as chairman of the board. Meyer is a man who can be relied upon, when Dawes outlines a plan, to explain just how to go about achieving it, without going into details as to why it cannot be done. A third man who will be powerful in the R. F. C. is Ogden L. Mills. Under Secretary of the Treasury and for the past few months its practical spokesman. Secretary Mellon is undoubtedly feeling the weight of his years and is leaving most of his active duties, like appearances before Congressional Committees, to Mills. When Mills was a plain Congressman he was regarded as a "highhat" sort of person. He is descended from a '49er and for three generations has been surrounded with all the trappings of wealth and has become an aristocrat. Lately, his grasp of financial questions and newly developed geniality have made him a popular figure. One of the main reasons why the financial world has taken the R. F. C. to its heart is the fact that it is not altogether a new experiment. It is such a close copy of the successful War Finance Board, that combatted the depression of 1921 and returned a profile of many millions to the national treasury without costing the taxpayers a cent, that whole sections of that Act have been bodily lifted and incorporated in the new Act, changing the name only where it occurs in the war Board legislation. Proof that the money that is being hoarded by the workers through fear of bank crashes can be brought out of its hiding has been demonstrated by the recent offering of New York city's notes for $100,000,000. That amount was oversubscribed in fifteen minutes after the books were officially opened. The public, faced with the low prices of stocks, refuses to invest in any of them, fearing not only a further drop but the risk that they may be entirely wiped out. Now, with the Government putting its guarantee back of the new capital, the public has shown by its response to the first offering of $350,000,000 bonds under the new Act, that it is ready and willing to put its money back to work. The Treasury was swamped with requests from bankers and private investors asking for blanks on which to bid for the new securities as soon as the first plans for the new R. F. C. were divulged. When the first official bids were asked the treasury again found itself swamped with tenders for the securities. There seems to be no reason to doubt that the government can obtain all the money it needs whenever it is willing to put its guarantee back of a loan. Confidence has returned at last, everybody in Washington is saying, "J. Sato K. Horita, S. Sugita T. S. Ban." Montanans Invited to Attend Annual Picnic Montanans now living or visiting in Southern California this week received cordial invitation from President Thad S. Smith of the Montana State Society of Long Beach to attend the annual picnic to be held at Bixby Park, Long Beach next Sunday. Lunch and coffee will be served. MINNESOTANS TO PICNIC The all-Southern California Minnesota Picnic will be held at Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles, Saturday, February 20. County registers and headquarters, silk souvenir badges, coffee and a popular program will mark the picnic. Minnesotans are asked to bring basket dinners. LOW ONE WAY FARES Everywhere ...and every fare a TRAVEL BARGAIN Measure the value of faster time...more conveniences...greater com- Confidence has returned at last, everybody in Washington is saying, even if it did require the government itself to lead the way. It is beyond question that private investment channels will be enabled to obtain loans them selves because of the great confidence instilled by the oversubscription to the public loans. One reason for this return of confidence is seen in the implied determination of congress not to allow another dollar of American funds to be sent abroad. Lately the cry is American money for American business. Let Europe get from under its financial load as best it can. France's ability to return to a safe financial basis has been shown in the past six years, at the start of which it appeared as though it never could make a comeback. Now it is second only to the United States in its ownership of gold reserves. Any plan that is designed to relieve Europe before our own troubles have been conquered is almost certain to be killed by Congress. As one public speaker declared the other day, this country cannot be in financial difficulties while it has $350,000,000,000 in prime securities on which to borrow. A hint as to the eDmocrats' solution of the way to meet the budgetary deficit of the Treasury was given by the Ways and Means Committee tax bill, offered Congress for passage. The bill avoids "nulsance" taxes and will offer plans to tax telephone users ten cents an instrument; add one cent a gallon tax on gasoline; perhaps levy half a cent a kilowatt on electric current; tax trucks which are competing with railroads; and levy further on luxuries. The big industrial giants, which are said to be carrying all they can afford to right now, are to be let alone, according to the Democrats' plan... HINTS FOR THE HOME BY NANCY HART French Vanilla In France ice cream and ices of all sorts are something of a luxury. In America if not actually a necessity, ice cream is assuredly a most commonplace commodity. It has been brought within easy reach of all. Perhaps plentiful ice cream has its advantages, but when any article of food becomes commonplace it is somehow robbed of some of its appeal. From the French point of view the American portion of cream or ice is much too large. It should not be regarded as a mere food—mere nourishment. There should be only a morsel of it eaten as a pleasing contrast to more substantial viands. Ices and ice creams in France are very often served in little plated silver dishes—that look exactly like very small porringers. There is one neat scoopful of the ice cream on the dish "Glace vanille"—vanilla ice ceram—is most usually found on the bill of fare and is usually well made. Strawberry sherbet is usual enough and sometimes a vanilla ice—a very anemic sister to the more tempting "glace vanilla." If you are going to France and want to bring home an unusual little souvenir, get a set of those little metal glace dishes—the dishes that look like very little porringers, hen when you have friends for dinner or luncheon and want to offer an unusual touch to the serving of the sweet, you can serve some sort of sherbert or ice cream on these little French dishes.
