SISTER MARYl7'S KITCHEN
NEA Service Vriter

During hot weather the vegetable dish which is substantial enough to make a complete meal with the ad- dition of bread and butter. salad and dessert, is in high favor for lunch con and supper. This type of dish can, of course, be used when meat is included in the menu, but in this event less meat is required and additional vegetables are quite un- necessary.
 You will find that this juggling of summer menus, giving vegetables the place usually occupied by steaks and roasts, makes for a pleasing change in the regular fare. A substantial vegetable dish usually is made up of two or more vegetables and often has some other material, such as cheese, pea nut butter or egg added. These com binations are finished in the oven and are served from the cas- serole or baking dish, effecting a worthwhile saving of dishes. Gar nishing just before serving sends them to the table in most attractive form.

Senator Dill is pretty much
disguised with European radio
and favors the American method,
in spite of its overload Of COM
mercial propaganda.
The Senator's broadcast from
London was a severe indictment
of the Is radio systems he has
observed and heard while travel
ing I'D and down the Continent.
Programs lack, he finds, the
human element and are predicated
sport what the government mo-
nopoly thinks listeners should
have, rather than on public
demand.
Because of the scarcity of radio
programs in those countries, the
listeners tune in on foreign sta
tions, said Senator Dill. He con.
tinued:
"They do this especially for
musical programs, for music is
the one language that needs no
interpreter. Music is under
stood by all, and 1 cannot but
believe that when the people in
their homes throughout Europe
listen to the great symphonies
and operas which they love,
coming from one cOuntry's CAPT
tai and then from another, old
national hatreds and even the
bitter memories of the past ma
tional quarrels will fade into
insignificance.
"The great trouble with radio
programs in Europe is that
they are stiff; they are formal;
they are government made;
they lack the human element,
and they are too heavy and
serious"
The sole exception he found ir
