For Doing This;
Congress can get into debate
over almost anything -- even a
flower.
A recent debate over the corn
parative merits of a carnation,
a rose, a corn tassel, and even
e blade of grass as a national
emblem took up two pages in
that day's issue of the Congres-
sional Record.
At least half a dozen senators
became involved in the flowery
debate. It, all began when Sena-
tor Allott of Colorado proposed
adoption of the carnation as the
national flower.
No rose man was going to
take that sitting down. The corn
tassel bloc was swinging wildly.
Grass had an ardent supporter
from the blue grass state;
The carnation, exulted Sena-
tor Allott, "grew wild on the
hills of Greece before the birth
Of Christ" Senator Beating of
New York (wearing one of the
free carnations Senator Alloth
distributed throughout the Sen-
ate, but true to the rose) could
not let that pass.
The rose, said he, could be
traced back 33 million years on
this continent, through fossils
found in Senator Ailott's own
state of Colorado!
Senator Douglas didn't see
how anything could be odder
than corn. He invited the Senate
to come to his office 'where he
had a photograph of a Mexican
piece of sculpture "of approxi-
mately 1100 A.D. in which the
ears of corn . • . are almost as
large as the normal ears of corn
today."
Senator Morton of Kentucky
had the last word, however, as
he triumphantly reminded • his
colleagues that "it was grass
that was mentioned first in the
story of creation."
As in all debates, it was not
long before verbal thrusts were
sharp. After all, suggested Sena-
tor bouglas, a rose may be beau-
tiful but it'is at the same time
a symbol of war. Well, at least
one war between the houses of
Lancaster and York,
On the contrary, suggested
rose spokesman Keating, the.
dove of peace might appropri-
ately carry the 'rose in its bill,
since ` the rose is the national
symbol of a number of nations.
"Of all things we are seeking
to accomplish t. in this world,'
said he, one of the foremost is
a closer relationship .with our
friends and allies. So perhaps'
the adoption of the rose as the
national flower would tend, to
effect closer relationships."
Senator Neuberger. of Port,
land, Oregon, the Rose City,'
came up swinging wildly at the
torn tassel, "More roses," he ob-
' served grow in Oregon .than in
any other state and, unlike -the
corn tassel, the rose does not
need price support to enable sit
to flourish."
Senator Byrd of Virginia,
singularly silent ` about the ap-
pleblossom (he is one of the
biggest applegrowers in the
state) also let the, corn tassel
have it.
He said he had "no- relatives '
who are members of the anti -
Saloon League, but the organi-
zation might well have good
reason to become concerned
about the matter, since it is a
fact that the people of this coun-
try spend $10 billion a year -
$10 billion every 12 months -
for the liquid products of corn
and some of the other grains."
Senator Morton, lone ;promo-
ter of grass as a national sym-
bol, took a swipe at corn and
carnations, impartially. The corn
tassel, he said, is not a full,

flower, but merely the male
flower, the ear of corn being the
female flower, writes Josephine,
Ripley in the Christian Science
Monitor,
He advised against getting
"into any' controversy that is
going to lose us the women's
vote because of our adopting a,
male floweras the national
floral emblem."
As for the carnation, Senator
Morton said he bore it no ma-
lice. "It is a beautiful flower.
From the aesthetic standpoint,
it serves as a thing of beauty"
However, he observed that he
had "not been able to find that
it makes any great contribution
to the welfare of our nation, or
that it is essential to our eco-
nomic survival in this troubled
world,"
Grass, •on the other hand, said
the Kentucky senator, waxing
lyrical "sustained the buffalo
• . feeds the lowing cattle, the
gentle sheep, the patient horse.
"I point out," he continued,.
"that our first important re-
source is gress, and that our
most important resource is the
cow. Let us look at the cow, the ,
foster mother of mankind.
Wherewould the cow be, and
further, where would mankind
b,e but for grass? We are a
meat-eatingr people, How could
we satisfy our national hunger
for meat, if it were not for
grass?"
Miffed, the 'senator from, Illi-
nois rose to say that he felt, "It
ill behooves .the senator from
Kentucky to try to Corn."
grass . and downgrade corn." ,
All of which explains -why the
United States .has never adop-
ted a national flower. But the
senators will have another go.
at it in May "when the Garden
Club of America are sponsoring
a forum on the selection of a
national floral emblem in the
Senate caucus room.
Petals may be elepected to fly
as Senator Allott defends the
carnation, Senator Douglas the
corn tassel, Senator Morton roots
for the blue grass, Senator Scott
of Pennsylvania lauds the rose,
and horticulturist Walter Bur-
pee,&peaks up for the marigold,
Two tramps were sitting at
the roadside when one remark-
ed:
"I'm a man who never .took
advice from anybody."
"Shake," said his companion.
"I'm a man who took advice
from everybody."

How To Cook Those
Bass You Catch
Like'; the piscatorial poet at.
Plainfield, Bob Cary says:
Pori -the -grassy flavor
Bass'- have in 'em,
Never. scale 'ent,
Always skin 'em!
And there you have the start
of a first class hassle!
The hassle being: Just how do
YOU class hassle!
The hassle being: just how do
YOU like your bass?
While Cary, who also edits
Prairie Sportsman, when he isn't
fishing, believes the distasteful
part of some bass lies in the skin,
others will snort•that it's the skin
which gives a bass that "full-
bodied" flavor.
Truth o4 the matter is, accord-
ing to some experts, it all de •
pends upon the delicacy, or the
individual fisherman's taste, • .
What some call a disagreeable '
"mossy or' muddy"' tang, others'
find it ah agreeable "wild sa-
vor" not obtainable in store-
bought 'fish.
Having pondered this contro-
versy for many years, these re-
searchers:come up. with the ob-
servation.--..
To ;Cneutrai observers, bass
taken front: mud-bottorn or mos-
sy lakes do have a flavor rem-
iniscent'of their habitat . ;but,
while some people' find this uit
palatable, others do not:
To those who do not eat them -
to those who do, try this,
suggests Heddon . , .
Filet the bass if it's large
enough. If not, just scale it and
scrub ` the flesh white with :a
stiff -bristled ' brush. ' lace the
pieces in, a collander and !et
cold water run on them for 10
to 15 minutes, turning occasion-
ally.
Drain, salt lightly,.and place in
refrigerator overnight,- Remove.
let stand until approximately
room temperature. Melt enough
butter to allow generous dipping:
of each piece.
Now, comes the gourmet's
touch! --
Roll butter -dripping fish sec-
tions in potato chip crumbs.
That's right, crumble the chips
with a rolling pin and the rollefi
fish will look like it's got scales
again.
La'y pieces in a baking dish,
pour remaining butter over
them, and bake -fry until 'golden
brown and . just done. DON" C
OVERCOOK! The succulent fla
vor will come close to making
you an addict.
Muddy fish and crumbled
chips, anyone?
