those who think that II a little bit

family-except father--fixing his
own. Tray breakfasts outdoors are

If you are a stickler for routine
send that habit on its own

1. Be sure that food, milk and

4. Let one hour. at least, elapse

Precaution should be the watch

In this way the same nourishment

Tomatoes with Egg Plant
Another healthful combination
that has coaxed many people to
like egg plant is a casserole recipe
which calls for III cups of egg
plant which has been pared and
cut in half inch cubes, 6 young
garden onions, or medium sized
onion, minced, III cups peeled
fresh tomatoes, diced, Cor you may
use canned tomatoes), teaspoon
each of chopped green pepper and

salt. pepper and little sugar. Mix
we'll and put in a buttered casser-
ole. Add 2 tablespoons of butter
scattered over the top in bits, COW
er and cook in a moderate oven
until eggplant and onions are done.

many or us use instead of. the oven
during the summer season.

Better Weather Forecasts.

From the Santa Monica Outlook.
The perfection Of a new system OF
weather forecasting by the meteorol-
ogists Of the California Institute Of
Technology Is an announcement Of no
small public interest and value.
For years 1t has been clear that the
United States Weather Bureau vas
either unable to develop better methods
OF forecasting or so married to q routine
as to be incapable of any Independent
research. No attempt has been made
by the Weather Bureau to 60 beyond
the old narrow and uncertain limits of
forecasting and as a general result its
forecasts have come to be of relatively
small value to the public.
The system perfected by the Institute
OF Technology is the result Of inde-
pendent study by minds that are open
to facts. The work Of the Western
Air Express and the experience of aviA.
ton in weather matters has doubles
been Of value to the Pasadena students
OF the subject. They have adopted q
new means of observation and are Ca
pable Of making predictions with more
exactness to localities than was possible
by the method followed by the Weather
Bureau.
The weather is a vital factor in all
human activity. The new system per-
fected at Pasadena promises to contrib
ute the greatest forward step in weather
forecasting that has been made in the
United States for many years. It Is
time the standstill policy Of the Weather
Bureau should be broken up and pro-
gressive methods inaugurated.

A Tragic Flight.

1t is with sorrow and regret that the
American public learns Of the death
Of Stephen Darius and Stanley T.
Girenas, the young Lithuanian aviators
who successfully negotiated the Atlantic
crossing only to crash within brief dis
tance of their goal at Kovno. They
launched out on their perilous venture
without proper scientific equipment,
without official permission and with
out passports. Their departure was
the occasion of a rebuke by the State
Department. A forced landing In any
territory short of Lithuania might have
resulted in arrest and imprisonment
But there can be no question about
the courage Of the men. Both were ex-
perienced flyers, both had excellent
records. They knew the risk, and they
chose to defy 1t. Certainly, neither
wished to throw his life away. Each
believed In the feasibility Of success.
Their faith was justified In large r--t.
The final failure probably was due to
weather conditions, not to any error on
the part of the travellers or to any
defect In their vehicle. 1t Is supposed
that they mistook forest Of trees, haze
cbscured, for an open meadow

den,ic. The fact Is that two brave men
are dead. Some will contend that they
are victims Of their own unwisdom;
some will be glad to defend their
memory against that slur. What mat
tiers is the cause in which they died.
Aviation must go forward. That i'm
plies that experiments must be made.
Darius and Girenas were engaged In
such a test. They are gone, but they
have answered in the affirmative one OF
the important questions Of aerial navi-
CATION. They have proved that 1t II

to make such q night as they at
tempted. That Is q victory. and 1t
would be ungenerous to deny it.
However, the public desires caution
in such circumstances. Neither the
people of the United States nor those
of Lithuania wished Darius and Girenas
to tax. so long a chance as that which
they insisted upon taking. In point Of
fact til-irs might not have been .
tragic flight had they been just trifie
more amenable to reason. Granted that
they may not have had the means to
purchase the instruments they needed,
it would seem that delay until more
propitious season would have been
preferable to taking of without them.
But they were impatient, they would
not wait. That is the pitiful element In
their story, and it may be the lesson Of
their fate. Aviation must make con-
slant progress, but not g too hectic or
reckless pace.

Stock Tip Frauds.

Postmaster General Farley has Issued
a warning to the public against the
tipster sheets that are flooding the
country at present in consequence Of
the revival Of business on the stock
exchanges. He says that while the Post
Once Department cannot prevent per-
sons from selling or giving market ad-
vice unless fraud is employed. he will
not hesitate to issue fraud orders
against any one. individual or corpora
ton or association, engaged In any
practice which is based upon mistnfor-
nation.
It Is well to bear in mind the expert
ences of the great boom Of the late
twenties-so short time that memories
of that frenzy Of speculation should be
vivid-when grafters were actively at
work seeking to make profits out OF
the needless urge of millions Of people
to get rich quickly. Despite repeated
warnings that buyers Of securities
should stop, look and listen" before
investing, should ask advice from COM
petent Judges Of values, literally count
less victims were taken for Q ride By
the promoters Of worthless stocks.
Everything looked good then to the
spt :ulator. New corporations were be-
ing hoated and their securities were be-
ing marke ed without difhculty. "In-
vestment advice" was sent to everybody
whose name could be found on the lists
Of stockholders, even to persons who
were identified through city and tele-
Evening star., 1933-07-17

phone directories. They were urged
to sell their holdings In assuredly sound
concerns and invest in others that were
booked for swift advances. according to
the boosters.
Losses through the depreciation Of
the securities Of valid corporations,
when the market broke and the List
fell, were heavy and hard to bear. but
harder yet were the Losses suffered
through unwise buying Of unknown
stocks, vigorously promoted by the con-
scienceless possessors Of sucker lists"
For these Losses were, as o rule, the
savings Of persons Of small means, the
stocking holdings Of ordinarily careful
ones who relied on them for security
against old age and illness.
It seemed to be the cruel law Of finan-
cial nature that those least able to
bear losses were the easiest to gull with
fictitious allurements. A little reflec-
ton would have given warning, realixa-
ton that there could be no real worth
in . market tip that, obviously from
the very manner Of approach, was be-
ing sent out to multitudes simulta-
neously. The frauds should have de-
feated themselves. But they did not.
The speculative spirit carried normally
conservative people OF their feet.
The Postmaster Generals warning
should have some effect. It should at
least cclse those who are now getting
the tempting tips to ask dependable ad-
vice before investing" Nothing Is
really lost by little delay, long enough
to make inquiries from reliable banker
or trustworthy broker. The tipsters
hint or directly warn against delay.
The stocks they advocate are about to
60 up rapidly and to a high point.
Today is the golden opportunity. A
jump Of half a dozen, ten, twenty, even
! fifty points, at once Is assured. Buy
now and get rich Immediately Is the
cry. Alas and alackl Acceptance Of
such advice is almost an assurance OF
loss, eventually, II not now.
Just a little common sense should
teach that a sure-thing investment does
not need to be circularized, does not
require high-pressure salesmanship like
the tip sheet. Men Of experience IN
business, with shrewd knowledge Of
values, are ready with their capital to
float new companies with good pros
poets. It is only the purely speculative
or the actually fraudulent enterprise
that has to be launched through the
tipsters, If indeed it IS to be hoated at
all and Is not merely fraud from the
beginning.
The safe course for those who get
these tip sheets Is to regard them as
presumptively fraudulent, or at best as
merely speculative suggestions. The
best place for them is the waste basket
