The much-discussed and allegedly “political” pamphlet published by the General Federation of Women’s Clubs in connection with the Cieorge Wash- ington Bicentennial program was re- pudiated yesterday by the Maryland Federation of Women’s Clubs, meeting in Baltimore. The pamphlet depicts President Hoo- ver as a twentieth century George Washington, Despite assurances of the General Federation’s Bicentennial Com- mittee that the publication had no po- | litical intent, the Maryland Federation | decided the pamphlet should be elimi- nated from the State program for ob- servance of the Bicentennial. The vote against use of the book was 30 to 4, with 4 members not voting. Utterances Compared. Lithographs of the first President and of President Hoover appear side by side on the pamphlet’s cover. In- side, in parallel columns, are quoted passages from public utterances of the two Presidents, The pamphlet con- cludes with a laudatory comparison of Washington and Hoover. “As George Washington, farmer, | soldier, business man and engineer, | labored wisely and incessantly to build |a Nation * * * so Herbert Hoover, the only other engineer President, hes | gone forward likewise building a Na- tion and helping build a world,” says the text. “As Washington * * * was able to meet the problems of his coun- try, so, too, Herbert Hoover * * * has met and is meeting and overcom- ing obstacles that arise in the national and international life of America.” Defended by Mrs. Sippel.

Four election officers were forced to stand with their hands raised while the ballots were stolen. ‘The primary was one of the bitterest in Allegheny County’s history.

RESEARCH REVEALS Oregon University Scientist Spends Six Years Measuring Apertures as qud Study—Benefits Anticipated. BY HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE, Associated Press Sclence Editor. EUGENE, Oreg, September 16.— Gelatin is full of holes so fine that from 800,000,000 to 4,800,000,000 of them could be drilled side by side to form & line of openings only 1 inch long. Measurement of these tiny diameters for the first time in the scientific world is announced at the University of Oregon, where the work was e by Dr. Leo Friedman. Each hole is the opening of a pore of about the same diameter. Outside the scientific values, the measurements promise possibilities of preparing foods in new ways, by find- | ing better mixing methods for such ordi- narily antagonistic substances as oil and water.

All these substances when dissolved soak through gelatin if given sufficient time. Scien- tifically the process is named diffusion. It. amounts to much the same thing as rouing tiny: balls through the holes. By computing the time required for diffusion Dr. Friedman obtained the diameters of the pores. The possibilities of new edibles lies in finding out more about the emulsi- fying, or “sticking together” properties, of gelatin Emulsification is one method of binding together substances which do not mix readily The gelatins ex- amined at Oregon are quite similar to those used on the dining table for desserts, salads and eold consommes.
