NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-Busi-
ness reports the past week give a
blurred picture, still leaving the
autumn months to show how far
recovery has gone and how much
it has been hampered by disturb
ing governmental activities.
The most accurate index of
commerce, car loadings. shows a
drop in one week of 5000 cars
and almost $4,000 cars below the
corresponding week. of 1888.
On the other side of the ledger,
Dun and Bradstreet reported re-
tail sales from five to seven per-
cent higher than those of the
preceding week. Wholesale bust
ness reported the second highest
volume of the year. Steel opera
tons in the Youngstown district
climbed from 35 percent to 81
percent of capacity, while the
American Iron and Steel Institute
reported that employment in the
industry had reached the highest
level in four .yars during June
when there were 455,966 people
at work, an increase ovr the pre-
ceding June of 1880. Estimates
of production of cars and trucks
for 1884 increased from $780,
900 to 2.750,00O.
Reports from Washington said
James A. Moffett, Federal Hous-
ing Administrator, hoped to get
the home renovation campaign
started during August, but that

ton costs reduced as means Of
stimulating business. General
Johnson ran into this same oh
stacle last year in drafting con-
struction industry code. with or
ganized labor demanding still
higher wages and placing home
building beyond reach of moder-
ate income citizens.
Operations of the oil industry
for the first six months of this
year were reported on the most
profitable basis of any first half
year period since 1880, and the
world cotton consumption during
the 1933-34 season was reported
as the largest since the 1928-29
season
AS has been the case for sew
eral months, strikes throwing
thousands of persons out of. en-
ployment and decreasing purchas-
ing power. and uncertainty as to
the future course of the federal
government were reported slowing
down future commitments so
necessary to recovery.

OTHER LANDS
FOODS APPEAL
TO AMERICANS
Italy, England, Ireland and
Austria Offer Menu
Ideas.

Food habits of other lands offer
interesting suggestions to American
housewives.
Although cooking is a universal
art, the food supply of each country,
also national preferences and tradi-
tons, make certain dishes outstand-
ing favorites in each land. Some
of these find international favor, yet
seem to retain the distinctive flavor
CT the country Of their origin.
Italy, for instance, has contributed
ravioli, to this culinary Congress of
Nations. This is the way it is pre-
pared in its own land:
Ravioli
Boiled beef, chopped fine, with
small quantity of boiled spinach.
Flavor with pepper, salt and nutmeg.
Make a pastry with egg, one-half
glass cold water and flour. Roll it
out thin and cut in squares or
ovals. Fill with the above in
gradients and fold over. Cook in
boiling water, sailed to taste, until
dough is cooked, about fifteen
minutes.
Sauce
Take 4 pound butter, a small cup
of olive oil and u pound chopped

PREVIOUS DAYS
ROAST BECOMES
GOOD LUNCHEON
Spanish Lamb Among Ways
for Appetizing Use of
Left-overS.

What to do with the left over bits
Of yesterdays roast is sometimes a
puzzling problem to the housewife.
so it may be well to turn our atten-
ton to ways of making left-overs
into attractive luncheon dishes.
Quite the simplest way to pre-
pare leftover meat is to reheat it in
its own gravy.
Many housewives find it conven-
lent to make enough gravy with the
roast that some may be served with
the bits of leftover meat. It is a
good plan to make as much gravy
as possible and yet have good gravy.
Gravy Saves Flavor
The reason for making gravy is
to conserve all the flavor of the
meat which in the process of cook
ing has gone into the fat and the
brown particles left in the pan.
Needless to say the whole purpose is
defeated if so much liquid is added
that the gravy is favorless.
The secret of preparing left-overs
lies in the flavor. Whether that

ence.

which are exceptionally we'll fla

Ohio A. A. Conference
Showed Desire for
United Front

A STRIKE in the steel in
n dustry is the next decisive
battle in the class struggle in
the United States. Upon the
development of this battle
much hinges - perhaps the
immediate development of the
American labor movement.
1t is therefore necessary to an
aly2e very carefully every force in
the impending fight.
AS anyone at all familiar with the
steel industry knows, there are two
unions with mass following there.
one the militant Steel and Metal
Workers Industrial Union. affiliated
with the Trade Union Unity League.
the other the Amalgamated Associa-
ton Of Iron, Steel and Tin Work
ers, affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor. A solid fight
ing united front between the work
ers in these two unions-a unity
which is being steadily urged by
the S. M. w. I. Twill be the de-
cisive factor in the whole situation.
Unity spells victory for the steel
workers; disunity defeat.
It is in this light that we must
examine the recent conference of
the Analganated Association in the

strike of the men alone but of the
women also"
Does the foregoing-snd the
general facts are corroborated from
all other sources-sound like the
5000 Auto Truck Drivers were in a
position which made it necessary
for them to surrender?
On the contrary it shows that the
striking Drivers Union and huge
sections of the working class we're
on the offensive. Leaders who sur
render while their forces are on the
offensive are either fools or crooks
or both. There were plenty of all
three types in the Minneapolis
struggle as we shall see.
The truce was signed under
these conditions, the strike of the
drivers-the militant core of the
whole movenent--was over, nego-
tiations began, the working class
forces we're demobilized and the
strikers demands went splashing
into the Shiny pool of class COL
liberation.
The truce" was signed only to be
violated by Governor Olson. What
kind of truce is it when the enemy
is allowed to bring up powerful
reinforcements while the working
class and its organizations are dis
armed?

ment) is OK, but, somehow, the
company had put it over on Roose-
welt. This, of course, is an attempt
to instil illusions about Roosevelt
and the N. r. A. in the minds of
the steel workers, illusions which
will be absolutely fatal to the de-
velopment of q successful strike in
the steel industry. His present pol
ley is a continuation of his policy
in the Weirton strike where he de-
moralized the fighting spirit Of the
strikers by protracted negotiations
with Washington, with the N. r. A.
officialdom-and finally helped de-
feat the strike
