Did It
First the car then
step by step the ser-
vice.
The car was so
good made so econom-
ically so efficiently
that it has become the
“Universal Car."
But Ford did not
?n with the car.
Ford sendee said
Ford must be just as
universal just as eco-
nomical as the Ford
ear.
It was the logical
thing. It meant fur-
ther economy to Ford
owners and so the
Ford service station
>vas planned and built
in the Ford factory.
It was a dream —it
is a reality now and
here you may see and
make use of one of
Ford’s own service
stations.
It is for you—if you
are a Ford owner. It
means economy in
your repairs and ad-
justments and factory
made parts when you
need them.

PRESS CHARGES
MUST BE PROVEN
New York World Offers $lOOO
If He Will Name News-
papers Subsidized.
STONE ACCUSES EDITORS
Chairman of Foreign Rela-
tions Committee Says
They Are Urging War.
WASHINGTON D. C. Feb. 17.—
The New York World today offers.
Representative Callaway $lOOO in
cash “for the names or the twenty-
five newspapers of t H e United States
with proof in each instance to sub-
stantiate his charges that they have
been subsidized by the J. P. Morgan
interests the steel ship building
and powder interests in order to con-
trol their policy on preparedness and
militarism.”
The Caliaway charges were made
m a speech in the House February 9.
He alleged that “twelve men high
in the newspaper world were chosen
to carry out such a plan and that
they selected twenty-five of the
greatest newspapers whose policy
national and international was
bought to be paid for by the month
and that an editor was furnished for
each paper to represent the above
interests.
Since making his charges the
Texan has cunsistenetly refused to
give names declaring when the
House takes notice of his allegations
he will appear before a committee
and make good.
When informed of the World offer
lie laughed then added: “1 will
make g»»od—but I don’t want to
take the money. It will be too much
like giving it away” he declared.
Representative J. Hampton Moore
of Pennsylvania will introduce a re-
solution today providing for a thor-
ough investigation and says that he
will appear before the committee and
turnish names and proof.
Objects to Im estimation.
Objection by Representative Adair
of Indiana today prevented the
House from considering a resolution
by Representative Moore of Pennsyl-
vania to investigate charges which
Representative Callaway of Texhs
inserted into the record of February
L that twenty-five American news-
papers had been subsidized by Eng
lish money under the direction of
J. P. Morgan and Company and
others.
“Doesn’t the gentleman think.”
asked Adair “that enough money
has been wasted on investigation of
matters which had no foundation
whatevei ?”
The senate turned its attention to
the international crisis again Fri-
day a debate on the administration
bill to curtail activity of foreign
agents developing many references
to the situation with Germany and
drawing from Chairman Stone of the
Foreign Relations Committee a bit-
ter denunciation of newspapers
which circulate false statements in
jrder to create a sentiment of war.
“There is no shadow of doubt in
the mind of any fair thinking man"
said Senator Stone “that there is a
cabal of great newspapers in this
country seeking to create sentiment
and coerce the government of the
United States Into an attitude of hos-
tility with one of the belligerent
powers. I believe any one who makes
such false statements is a public
enemy and that he should be pun-
ished.”
Apply It to Editors.
The foreign relations chairman
made this statement in discussing a
section of the bill which would make
it a crime wilfullv or knowinelv un-

tier oath to make an untrue state-
ment intended to influence the meas-
ures or conduct of a foreign govern-
ment in relation to any dispute or
controversy with the United States.
lie urged that the same punish-
ment should apply to any person
including editors or publishers who
knowingly or wilfully made such
statements not under oath.
Senator Cummins objected vigor-
ously to the section which would
authorize the president to use the
army and navy to seize or detain
munitions of war or ships carrying
them w here they are designed t». be
used to violate American neutrality.
He proposed to amend the provision
so that the armed forces could not
be used "at a time or in a manner
that would make it an act of war."
\<>C to Be Rushed.
"I am not going to be rushed oft
my feet by the hysteria that is in
the air" said the lowa senator. "1
do not for myself want to give the
president power to use the armed
forces of the United States to cap-
ture a ship of a foreign nation under
such circumstances as would make
it an act of war."
Senators Sutherland and Fall op-
posed the amendment the former
declaring it "would be tying the
hands of the executive" and citing
many provisions of law which he
said already gave authority to use
the army and navy to preserve neu-
trality without such restrictions.
Senator Fail said the provision
without the Cummins amendment
was merely designed to fill in a gap
in the neutrality laws.
Senator Cummins finally withdrew
his amendment in order to pci feet
it.

chased by J. T. Milliken the formal

acting for the Milliken interests for
the sum of $lOOO cash. Confirma-
tion of this deal was contained in
telegrams received in San Antonio
Saturday morning.
Under this arrangement the new
iwners guarantee the payment of all
>ther outstanding claims. It is fur-
her agreed that “OO) acres of land
n Texas shall be deeded back to the
>ank becoming one of the assets of

Mr. Ponder deposited $214000 cash
to pay the receiver of the Bankers
Trust Company when the $400000
in bonds now held by other banks
but subject to call are delivered over
to the new owners.
The deal has been pending for
some time but cannot be finally con-
summated until early in March when
the ninety-day opibn given by the
Milliken interests to the former own-
ers of the road expires. Indications
are. however that they will be un-
able to take advantage of the option
and that the road will be reorganized
at once and taken out of the hands
of the receiver.

THE SAN ANTONIO LIGHT
WDM THINK
MUS. HOEHN
FOB HER HELP
Last Session of Cooking
School Is Devoted to a
"Question Box.”
HELPS SOLVE PROBLEMS
Some Answers to. Questions
Were Amusing. But All
Helpful.
The Free Home Economic School
conducted by Mrs. Kate Brew
Vaughn for The San Antonio Light
closed with a “question box” Satur-
day morning. The questions which
had arisen in the minds of the wom-
en at various times during the lec-
tures ami demonstrations were writ-
ten on little slips of paper and pass-
ed up to Mrs. Vaughn lor answer or
discussion. In this way every wom-
an received personal satisfaction and
had a direct answer or help in the
solution of some of her problems.
After the lecture and questionings
the hundreds of women who have at-
tended school gathered ardq/id Mrs.
Vaughn thanked her for the help
she had given them and spoke hope-
fully of her return. They declared
that the inspiration of Mrs. Vaughn's
talks had given them a new view of
their work. And that is the point
in all of Mrs. Vaughn s lectures this
effort to make the woman who is
liable to lose sight of the larger ends
in the endless detail realize that her
work is not a drudgery but a great
opportunity.
On Equality With Man.
She encourages the larger view
the broader aspect and the thought
of the greater whole. She makes
the woman of the home realize that
her “business of housekeeping” is
just exactly as important as her hus-
band's and that on her management
on her judgment in spending de-
pends the success and happiness of
the family much as upon the
earnings of her husband.
Mrs. Vaughn talked a great deal
Saturday morning about making
pastry and answered many questions
on the making of pies. Though
recipes were followed many women
declared that their pastry was not
right. This Mrs. Vaughn said was
the fault of the handling fur the
more a piece of pastry was rolled and
worked the tougher it became. She
told how. in order to make the pastry
crisp ami light it could be thor-
oughly chilled by placing ice in a
pan putting the pastry in another
pan on top of the ice covering this
and putting a pan of ice on top of
the cover.
She also spoke of the lost art of
making Cookies and declared that in
the past few years they have return-
ed to the kitchen in popularity but
that sonic of the laborious operations
incident to making up a lot of dif-
ferent sorts of cookies may be omit-
ted under the new method. As the
cooky jar is becoming a staple
Christmas present it is in order to
learn as much as possible about the
contents of this jar.
Some Amusing Answers.
Some of the questions asked Sat-
urday morning brought amusing
answers. One woman wanted to
know how she could bake a custard
pie and prevent the crust from be-
ing rather soggy in the middle.
“It cannot be done" was Mrs.
Vaughn’s retort “and when you hear
talk about the custard pics your
grandmothers used to make you can
just remember that time is a great
healer.”
She said however that the baking
of the pie could be improved by put-
ting the crust in the oven and allow-
ing it to cook slightly before putting
in the custard. The difficulty in
baking this kind of pie. she said was
in the fact that custard “sets” at one
temperature and pie crust at an-
other.
When one woman asked how she
could keep the juice from running
out of an apple pie Mrs. Vaughn
asked in turn:
“Why does the juice run out of a
pie? Why does a teakettle boil
over?”
As everyone laughed she said the
reason was the same that the pie
and the teakettle had both been
filled too full and no allowances
made for escape of the steam.
Emphasizes Child's Needs.
Mrs. Vaughn has emphasized day
after day that more than anything
else it is the plan and simple duty
of the mother of today to know what
kind of food her child needs and
warns mothers againsV the mistake
of spending more time and thought
on the children's clothes than they
devote to the study of the food prob-
lem upon which health and strength
physical mental and moral develop-
ment depend. She says that un-
questionably the most important
problem for the American woman
today is the conservation of the child
and the solution of this problem lies
largely in the m tter of foods.
She also spoke of school lunches
and showed how important it was
for the growing child with the strain
of growth ami knowledge both to
meet to have an attractive and
nourishing school lunch.
