the president and his chief political aid there is mutual understanding that a McNutt candidacy might divide them. That. also, is a fact contributing to the likelihood of a 1940 Roosevelt candidacy. McNutt Is tht only politbally practical heir to the new deal as of today. Mr. Roosevelt might undertake a third term himself In preference to breaking with Farley over McNutt. Farley's opposition would be a hish election day hurdle for the man from Indiana. LINER IRIQLOIS (CONTINUE* FROM FAQE ONE) chairs during the storm. The 12-year-old. 6.000-ton Iroquois. a coast-wise cruise ship when the war broke out. had been hurriedly refltted for an ocean crossing to return some of the Americans stranded in Europe by the war. Chartered by United | States lines from the Clyde-Mallory line, she left New York Sept. 13. with Caut. Edgar A. Chelton, vetteran of World War transport ' ships, in command. She loaded 371 passengers at Liverpool. Oct. 2. | 540 at Cobh. Oct. 3, and startedl home. Every one of teh passengers ■ and crew of 211 was an American ; cititen. Moat of the passengers were Irish-Americana who had been visiting the old country. Last Thursday, when the Iroquois was two days out of Cobh, President Roosevelt announced that Grand Admiral Erich Raeder of the German navy had informed the United States naval attache in Berlin that the ship would be sunk as she neared the American coast "under circumstances similar to those which marked the sinking of the British liner Athenia.” the implictlon being that the British would do the sinking. The information was messaged to Capt. Chelton on the' Iroquois, but he was told not to notify and alarm the passengers. But the passengers were having other troubles. A storm broke, high waves lashed the ship, all but 50 passengers were too sick to go to the dining salon and 80 were treated for injuries. The passengers thought they were in a hurricane and. according to the Rev. Michael Grace, of Shelbina, Mo., "Many passengers were saying the Rosary most of the time.” The storm lasted three days. Then, mysterious things began to happen as Capt. Chelton took precautions in view of the radioed

* a aa prepared by Dally Democrat—Betty Crocker Homo Service Department THIS PIE IS A HONEY In fact, it's made with honey—light amber-colored honey combined with eggs and butter and crunchy pecan chunks. Doesn't that sound like an elegant-tasting dessert? And it's neither too sweet nor too rich—as some Pecan Pies are. All in all. it has seemed to me the most delightful Pecan Pie I've ever tasted—so I'm passing it on to you as a suggestion for a company dessert that will linger pleasantly in the memory of your guests. Here is the recipe: Honey Pecan Pie Pastry for 9-inch pie shell 4 tbsp, butter, melted and slightly cooled 1 cup light-colored honey 14 tsp. salt 1 tsp. vanilla 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped Line a deep pie pan with plain pastry, and chill while preparing the filling. Beat eggs well with rotary egg beater. Beat m noney, : vanilla, melted butter, and salt. Sprinkle pecans over the pastry in the | pie pan. Pour egg mixture over the pecans. Bake 15 minutes in a hot oven, 450* F., then reduce heat to 325* F. slow moderate oven, to finish baking—about 20 to 25 minutes (or until a silver knife inserted in the renter of the filling comes out clean). Pastry for One Crust Pie 1 cup all-purpose flour I h cup shortening H tsp. salt Ice water (2 to 3 tbsp.) Sift flour onee before measuring. Sift flour and salt together. Cut in shortening with 2 knives or a pastry blender—leaving some of ;he shortening in lumps the site of giant peas. Add iee water. (Sprinkle the water lightly—a little at a time—over the flour and shortening. At first, blend it in lightly with a fork; then gather dough together lightly with the fingertips. As soon as you can make dough stay together, you have plenty of water in it.) Round up dough on elothcovered board i using flour rubbed into cloth to keep dough from sticking). Roll out to fit pan and place in pan loojely to avoid stretching, j Let pan rest on table while cutting off extra pastry—leaving H inch extending beyond edge of pan. Build up fluted edge. Chill thoroughly. Amount: Pastry for one 9-inch pie shell. ■i — ■ CaemeM i»» w Baiv la. , If you have any specific cooking problems, send a letter requesting Information to Betty Crocker in care of this newspaper.
