REFRIGERATING GAS
TO BE PROBED BY U. S,
Four Agencies to Cooperate to
Eliminate Hazards of Cool.
ing Plants.
~ the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
-Four Government agencies will CO.
operate in an exhaustive investigation
of health hazards resulting from the
use of gases in refrigeration mediums
for domestic and industrial plants
Declaring the lack of safeguards
against toxic gases presented a ma
tional problem, Surgeon General Cum
ming announced that he would call to-
gether early next week representatives
of the Public Health Service. the Blu
reau of Mines, the Chemical Welfare
Service and the Bureau Of Standards.
They will determine procedure in the
investigation. he said, and will cooper
ate in remedying the situation.
He feels confident that one result of
the study will be determination of safe
guards to be adopted Immediately by
manufacturers. 1t also may lead, he
suggested, to municipal regulations.
A report of preliminary investiga-
ton made public by the Public Health
Service. urged the use of chemical
warning agents" where toxic gases are
employed. These agents, it was ex-
planned, are gases which have slightly
irritating odor. or carry other means of
warning the victim Of escaping refrige-
rating gas.
Embodying the conclusions of DR.. r.
r. Sayers, who is connected with the
Public Health Service and the Bureau
of Mines, the report said that at least
two and possibly four gases now in
common use in cooling plants for homes
and industries are poisonous and possess
so little warning properties they offer
serious danger of involuntary ex-
posure," the victim being rendered help
less before realizing the gas has been
escaping.
DR.. Cummings announcement was in
accord with a suggestion made by As
sistant Secretary Klein of the Commerce
Department, to the Secretary of the
Treasury that the four agencies confer
on methods through which the Gov
eminent might assist in averting
danger.
Public health officials said that
numerous requests for investigations
have been received since several deaths
in Chicago were attributed to gases es-
Gaping from cooling plants. They
pointed out, however, that they had the
subject under consideration some time
previously.

Do you know the joys of mixed
grill? Almost anything you find in
your refrigerator can be used to
good advantage, as you will see
from the following list of foods
suitable for this type of meal. The
mixed grill is especially practical
for the small family dinner.
A wire cake cooler is a good thing
on which to place the food, as it
keeps the smaller pieces from slip
ping through. Dip everything into
highly seasoned French dressing.
Place IN brOiling oven, which has
been pre-heated, and cook under a
slightly turned down flame. Turn
the food to cook on both sides. A

rack will prevent the fat from burn

Black and Green
Teas of Several
Different Types

Most of us who drink tea have
our preferences. One prefers green
tea, while another will drink moth
ing but black tea. 1t is interesting
to know just how the two differ,
and something concerning the vari-
GUS grades under each heading, for
all green tea is not the same, nor
us all black tea alike.
Most of the fine green tea comes
from China or Japan. In preparing
the leaves for the market, after
picking, they are steamed slightly,
and dried, then fired" over char
coal fires in iron braziers. This
process closes the pores and helps
to seal in the favor. The higher
grade leaves are twisted tightly,
while the lower grades are rolled
loosely.
Ceylon, India, and Java produce
the most of the black tea. The
process of preparing it for the mar
ket is more elaborate and expensive
than is the case with the green tea.
The fresh picked leaves are placed
on large trays and allowed to lie
for IL to 20 hours, during which
time whitening or oxidizing takes
place.
The leaves then are rolled, spread
and covered with wet clothes until
fermentation turns them a bright
copper color. They then are fired,
sieved, and graded.
Orange Pekoe is a faVorite black
tea, and there are several grades
of it. There is the tiny terminal
leaf at the end of every stem from
which the Flowery Orange Pekoe
is made. Next in order of delicacy
is the Orange Pekoe, and last, Pekoe
