fRI 1101WIE w* cK •■ The Market Basket By The Bureau of Home Economics, '-9\ r U. S. Department of Agriculture, and the Woman's Division of the President's Emergency Committee for Employment BUDGETING K(Hll) EXPENDI TURES IS PROTECTION TO FAMILY HEALTH Do you budget your food oney? If not. says the Bureau of Home Econo mics of the IT. S. Department of Ag riculture, there is a gtood subject for a New Year’s resoution. To budget all household expenditures is good bus iness. the bureau thinks, but to budget the food money is a protection to the family health, particularly if the fam ily funds are low. A market list, made up wisely, can be used to insure a balanced diet as well as a balanced budget. In fact, the food budget must be balanced, and in more than one way. There should be no deficit, of course, or food supply. But there is another sort of balance that must be achieved. The items in the food budget must balance each other in nutritive value. And the more limited th e choice of foods, the harder it becomes to work out that kind of balance. \ Consder, for example ,a family that has no more than $7 a week to spend for food, with children in th e family. That allowance will buy less in some parts of the country than in others, of course, but what foods shall the bud get provide in order to meet, within that cost, he requirements in nutri tive value? ; To answer that question it is neces sary first to have in mind that the body needs several different kinds of foods —energy-yielding foods, body building and body maintenance foods, to help legulate body functions and to build resistance to disease. To sup ply those needs it is necessary to pro vide foods that will furnish the carb ohydrates, fats and proteins required for body fuel; the proteins, minerals and vitamins for body building and protective purposes. As a matter of convenience foods may be classed in five groups from which to select for those purposes, and thos e groups are: Milk and milk products;! vegetables and fruits;, bread and cereals; fats and sugars; meats, fish and eggs. This question is answered most eas ily by applying the familiar rule for expenditure of food money. Provide each food dollar in five parts (not equal parts however). iTThe weekly allowance for food Is $7 for the family in question, the food budget would be balanced in nutritive value if thfc FREE BUTTER One pound of fresh country butter free with every pound sold at 30c as long as supply lasts.

President Herbert Hoover will come from Washington for the services at 10:30 a. m., EST, tomorrow at Ed wards Congregational church— the historic structure on Main street, named for Jonathan Edwards, long ago. Congressional leaders will come too, and groups of distinguished peo ple from many cities. The choir in which Mrs. Coolidge has often sung will add its voices to the services for the dead, and there will be a brief sermon. i i Afterwards a simple motor proces sion will start for Plymouth, Ver mont, more than 100 miles away, to lay the “silent President” beside his father and his son, Calvin. The burial, simpler even than the services, will take place in later afternoon. BODY TO LIE IN STATE IN NORTHAMPTON CHURCH Northampton, Masl., Jan. 6. —(AP) —The body of Calvin Coolidge, 30th president of the United States, will lie in state for one hour tomorrow morning in Edwards Congregational church, in which he had worshipped. This was decided today when it be came apparent the little church could not accommodate the throng anxious to attend the funeral. One o fthe early visitors to the Coolidge home today was James Lucey, the aged cobbler who first set Calvin Coolidge on the path to the presidency. While in the White House Mr. Coolidge wrote Lucey that if it were not for him he would not be there. HOUSE WILL NOT MEET IN HONOR jOF COOLIDGE Washington, Jan. 6.

LEGISLATORS OUT TO MAKE GOOD ON THEIR PROMISES (Continued from Page One.) of the legislators is that now the or ganization work is over, Assembly will get down to its work with a dispatch born of a desire to hold the session to 60 days, despite the many problems facing it. A majority of members of both houses have expressed the opinion that the session will be concluded in a little over sixty days, but none has been found who will predict that it will last nearly so long as the record breaker of two years ago. “We’re here to do a bg joib, and we want to get it over with as soon as possible,”’ seems to be the sentiment of most of the solons. Whiie no actual reduction of ex penses has been achieved during the first two days, not a few members of the House and the Senate, in taking the floor, hafe served notice of their deadly earnestness about cutting the operating cost of the State. The mere fact htat on the opening day both houses went much further than to hold the usual opening day perfunc tory session still has the capital talk ing. Although the salary-cutting bill died in the Senate because it was not ratified in time for it to become effective at the time the State’s new slate of officers were inducted, the fact that the solons even got down to a consideration of salary cutting so early in the session has been re garded as a favorable sign that the majority of the legislators intend to wield the old budget-axe pretty thor oughly and not take too long about finishng the job. In thi Senate, Senatr T. L. Kirk patrick, of Charlotte, and Senator W. K. Boggan, of Anson, have both been outspoken about their intentions to carry out their campaign promises and cut wherever possible. They made the principal speeches in the Senate for passage of the salary-cutting bill although both expressed the opinion that officials’ salaries should be cut more than fifteen percent slash pro vided for in the House measure. While most of the other senators were qualifying their vote by saying that they thought the bill was unconsti tutional, Senator Kirkpatrick held no such doubt, and urged passage of the piece of economy legislation. “I made my campaign on a reduc tion of expenses, and I am going tc carry out my promise,”' he said, ant Senator. Boggan, making his maider speech expressed a similar sentiment Senator Boggan holds the belief tha salaries of State officials should b( cut at least 30 percent. He informer the Senate that his campaign in An son county was made on such a pro gram, and that h« was ejected. by th largest majority his home coutity hat ✓ * . HfcND«RSON,(W.C.,j DAILY DISPATCH FRIDAY, JANUARY 6 1933 ’ ever given a member of the legisla tors. In both the Senate and the House the early sessions have been char acterized by a seriousness not ordinar ily seen in a legislative body. There is little atmosphere of levity, and so far the assembly has shown no in clination for early recesses. This ap parent general attitude of the law makers, and the expressed opinions of many of the members of the as sembly, has prepared the legislative observers to look for a z*easonabbly short session this year. Drastic Economy Asked By Ehringhaus Endorsed In Legislature And Out (Continued from Page One.! minimum, it was also equally evident that they are not in favor of divert ing any money from the State High way fund to other purposes. For when Governor Ehringhaus declared his opposition to any movement to di vert any portion of the highway fund, he was applauded more loudly and for a longer time than at any other place in hs entire address. It was very evident that those for the payment of highway bonds and interest and for maintenance and nothing else. Gov ernor Ehringhaus pointed out that new road construction could not even be contemplated because of the stead ily decreasing revenue from the auto mobile license and gasoline taxes. Because of the stand taken against the diversion of any highway funds to other purposes by Governor Ehring haus and the tremendous response and apparent approval this stand has received, most observers here believe that the General Assembly will not -attempt to tamper with those high way funds. S The advocacy of an mmediate re \*Uuatlon of al property in the State for the .purposes of taxation and for the removal of the 15 cents state tax on property, the first definite recom mendations made by Governor Eh ringhaus, were roundly applauded. But it has been assumed for months that he would mak e J.hese two re commendations, since he was com mitted to them in the platform upon which he ran for governor. His de claartion n favor of further economy and reduction in the operating costs of State government were also ex pected. But the specific steps by Which he would secure part of this economy were new, although some of these steps have been foreseen and predicted her efor some time. His recommendation that the sta jnjt* passed in 1929 allowing the gover spi’ $1,500 aj year for entertainment be repeaed was distinctly new, and if act ed 1 upon will reduce his income while governor by $1,500 a year. It is re ported that news of this recommen dation got around -last night that tWs is one reason the Senate failed o rat ify the bill which both it and the House passed that would have re duced . the salary of the governor and all elected State officials 15 .per cent. This bill, if it had been ratified, would have reduced the salary of the gov ernor from $10,500 to $8,500. The suggestion that the office of Executive counsel be abolished was roundly applauded. But in the same paragraph Governor Ehringhaus ask ed that the governor be given author ity to employ a pardon commissioner and the necessary stenographic help. So while the office of executive coun sel will undoubtedly be abolished, it is not expected to result in t-he sav ing of a single in the total cost of government. The opinion of those who know the situation is that this recommendation was just a pretty ges ture to satisfy those who have been clamoring for the abolition of this of fice. The recommendation for the aboli tion of the Bureau of Personnel is in a similar category, since the Governor recommended that the work now be ing done by this bureau be continued as a division in the office of the gov ernor. So even if this bureau is abol ished, it will be only in name and the same work it has been doing will be carried on as an adjunct to the gov ernor’s office, with little or no saving in cost. , Ever since Charles M. Johnson, for mer director so Local Government, was appointed State treasurer by for mer Governor O. Max Gardner some six weeks ago —evidently with the as surance he would be continued in that post by Governor Ehringhaus-—it has been assumed in informed circles here that the new Governor would recom ment the consolidation of the Local Government Commission with th e of fice of State treasurer. So when Gov “B C”Relieves Your Headache In 3 Minutes Realizing that no one drug can re lieve all headaches, as they come from so many causes, a North Carloina pharmacist lias developed a combina tion of several ingredients, so blended and proportioned as to relieve almost any headache in a few minutes. You can get this formula wherever drugs are sold under the name “B. C.’’ 10c and 25c packages, and when you have one of those violent nerve-racking headaches, from inorganic causes, ‘B. C.” will give you soothing relief n three minutes. “B. C.” should also ae used for the relief of muscular aches and pains, common colds and aeurttlgia, reducing and for [uieting » distressed nervous system vithout opiates, narcotics or such hab , t forming drugs. —Adv._ ernor' Ehringhaus made this recom mendation it came as no surprise to those who had been following what was going on behind the scenes. This is also regarded as another reason why many f Ehringhaus’ friends were pet anxious to see the bill to reduce the Salaries of State officials 15 per cent. The recommendation for the consol idation of the State and Highway Commission prison departments into a single unit was also not unexpected, and is likely to be considered seriously by this session of the General Assem bly. It was considered in the 1931 session and the original intention then was to put all the prisoners under th e control of the State Prison. But some of the members of the General Assem bly thought this would give Superin tendent George Ross Pou of the State Prison too much power and too big a job, so it was deed-led to have the two separate systems instead \ The re commendation for greater unification of the motor vehicle tax collection agencies i salso likely to receive fav orable consideratin. o The request hta’t the General As sembly give the governor power to reorganize State departments, similar to the power that will probably be hsked of Congress by President Roos# •velt, came as something of a surprise. Most of the belief here- is that this recommendation will have hard sled ding, although it is agreed that if this power should be given the gov ernor, much additional economy could result from it.
