FRANCE IS SEEKING
CHEFS IN GOTHAM
BY G. r. CALDWELL

NEW YORK.-New York's French
chefs have refused point blank to
return to their motherland to teach
the new generation of French chefs
in Paris how to cook.
It develops that the rich American
tourists sojourning in Paris this sea-
son have made loud and bitter COM
plants against the French method
Of preparing French dishes.
"You don't know how to cook
French dishes over here any more,
they said. 'Why don't you send to
New York and get some one to come
over and show you how we eat on
Broadway and Fifth avenue?"
Many foreigners would have re-
scented this slur upon their culinary
art. There are small, secluded and
exclusive restaurants in Paris which
probably did resent it. But the gay
homard houses which
tourist traT9 began to see they must
do something to hold the American
trade. They sent frantic appeals to
some of the New York chefs to come
home and save the French reputa-
tion-the French cuisine. They said
that the Americans had got some

Finding the New Workers. plac-
idly self-satisfied with life on this
side of the ocean and not eager to
return to that Paris and her boule-
wards, the French restaurant pro-

play upon their thirsts.
Why live in that dry America,
they cabled. Come back to Paris,
where the wines Of infinite variety
and ancient vintage lend their init
able aid to a right sort of cookery
and where the proper Bordeaux,
Burgundies and Champagnes might
be drunk with the various courses
which go to make up the satisfying
repast. Also where a WE'RE du fin"
makes after-dinner coffee taste like
afterdinner coffee. But even this
subtle appeal did not shake the New
York chefs. They have found a
way to cook without Wine-or with
out very lavish use Of it, anyway.
Rene Anjard, Louis Paquet, Fred
Coquin and a number of other rep
resentative French chefs of the me-
tropolis announced today they would
stick to their adopted land. Further
more they have called upon their
brother chefs scattered throughout
the country to resist the call of the
motherland, holding that if the
chefs of Paris would know good
French cooking, let them come to
America and learn.
"It is a sadness to the French
chefs, this complaint of the Ameri-
cans that they no longer cook in
Paris" said Rene Anjard today
But we can do nothing. These
wonders Of electric, stoves and other
American appliances, they are not
known in France.
IF it is true the Americans are
pleased with cooking they find in
Holland and Germany, then we must
not let them be disappointed in
Paris. But we do not go. Let them
send their young men to US. We
will teach them to cook a Ia Ameri-
caian."
