BROILED LOIN LAMB CHOPS.
The lamb chops pictured are cut
from the loin. As can be seen, they
are cut thick, which is proper for
broiling. It is better to serve one
thick chop than two thin ones for
each guest, because then they can
be nicely Drowned while still tender
and juicy on the inside.
To broil lamb chops, thoroughly
preheat the broiling oven with the
regulator set at high" Place the
chops on the broiling rack so that
there is a distance of about three
inches between the top of the chops
and the source of heat. If the dis
tance must be less, then reduce
the temperature accordingly so
that the chops will not broil too
quickly. When one side is nicely
Drowned, season with salt and pep
per, turn, and allow to finish cook
ing on the second side. Chops cut
"a inch thick require 10 to IL min
utes for cooking, thicker ones re-
quire longer. Serve the chops i'm
mediately when the cooking is COM
pleted while they are still sizzling
hot.
You may want to add a little
different flavor to the chops. If
so, spread the chops just before
serving with a RoQuefort cheese
sauce. This is made by combining
ounces Roquefort cheese with 2
tablespoons cream and a few drops
of Worcestershire sauce.

Southern waters at one time-and
the next week or month there won't
be mackerel to be found anywhere
In that vicinity. Certain kinds of
fish will be abundant for several
years; suddenly their species dis
appears entirely, only to turn up
again some 20 years later. This
has been true of thing called the
title flsh"-a big job somewhat like
cod, which was caught for years
in the same waters as cod and hall
but. After doing sudden fadeout
for 40 years, the tile fish suddenly
staged great comeback; for eight
years they continued to be plentiful
then blacked out again.
My informant remarked learnedly
that in his opinion the moon had
a great deal to do with it-that
certain fish were much more plenti-
full according to some particular
phase of our satellite. There un-
doubtedly is something in it-and
suppose it is all mixed up with
tides and lunar pull and so forth!
A nice example of this finny dis
appearing act was present this
morning-nice, fat croakerS, which
have been unusually scarce of late.
They seem to be on the incoming
tide now, which would be welcome
news to croaker fans. Shad has now

year around, and even If it isn't the
hothouse variety it is delicious and
tender. This week end it would
appear that legs of lamb, loin chops
and similar cuts would be the ideal
buy. Right now we are all little
tired of the heavier meats, and lamb,
chicken and duck are tempting.
There is plenty of fresh mint in the
market to make your mint sauce,
too!
In the produce line there seems
to be plenty of everything-but
prices are disappointing. At long
last good native type asparagus
has appeared and is selling at a
comparatively reasonable price.
Squash, of all prosaic vegetables,
has taken to the higher price field,
which seems ridiculous. Lots of dan
delion greens and field cress is to be
had. Spinach is good and ineXpen-

pletion of the foreign orders. Our
contracts would have the effect of
following the foreign orders In this
respect, Air Corps officers believe.
by the end of two years we
should have more .airplanes for our
own uses than would have been
possible at that time had it not
been for the foreign orders" an
Air Corps spokesman explained.
Certainly by that time we will be
producing airplanes more rapidly
than if we had not had the benefit
of these foreign orders to start our
plants going"
The Air Corps also takes the posi-
ton that foreign sales on the whole
have been of great benefit to the
United States in that they have
stimulated our domestic aircraft in
dustry and have built up reserve
of industry which has cost us moth
ing to produce. The orders have put
our industry on a mass production
basis at least four months earlier
than our own program could have
done, and this period is regarded as
OF vital Importance to our early
achievement of air security.
Air Corps people fear the expan-
sion program will be followed during
the next two or three years by a
congressional economy wave, which
will curtail domestic production and
force the Air Corps to live on its
reserves.

as assistant to the Attorney General,
and Leo T. Crowley, chairman of
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
Mr.. Roosevelt will board the de-
stroyer Warrington in the shallow
waters off Key West tomorrow aft

the cruiser Houston for a Today

His exact destination has not been

a very good thing for the American
aircraft industry to have an already
developed foreign market which
will carry it over what might other

The effect of foreign purchases of
American airplanes will be to make

gram. American aircraft manufac-
turers, with existing plant facilities,
can build 500 French airplanes, $50
British airplanes and 1000 airplanes
for our own use with no difficulty
whatever and without much of
personnel expansion"
U. S. Industry Already Aided.
The effect of the British and
French orders already has been ex-
ceedingly beneficial to the American
aircraft industry, it was stated. The
manufacturers holding these con-
tracts already have organized their
plants for a production basis, OBJ
tanned necessary dies and tools, set
up the supply of raw materials and
are employing and training addi-
tional skilled craftsmen.
Their organizations are being set
up and are starting to function to-
day on mass-production basis.
If Congress provides funds for the
American air defense program by
June l, 1t will be doing as we'll as can
be expected, in the viewpoint of the
Air Corps and aircraft manufac-
turers. At least two weeks more will
be required, even under emergency
conditions, to negotiate contracts for
aircraft on mass-production basis.
On the basis of these contracts the
manufacturers then must negotiate
for necessary raw materials, which
will take at least another month.
This will bring it to the middle of
July-five months in the future-be-
fore the manufacturing of airplanes
for our air forces can get underway,
it is estimated.
BY that time the foreign contracts
should be we'll along, and the plants,

Review of
Recordings
By ALICE EVERSMAN,

The Victor Co. releases for Christ
mas sale it's first record by Dor
othy Maynor, the colored soprano
who made such a great success at
her recent debut in New York.
Most people who followed the wide
publicity given her appearance will
be interested to hear this record
ing. She has chosen Schubert's
ave Maria and Gretchen am
Spinnrade" for this single disk. Ger
tainly all the eulogles that have
been bestowed upon this singer are
justified, for here is a lovely voice
and superb vocal style that is in
deed a rarity in these times.
The voice is powerful, yet 1t is
effortlessly produced, and never
does she force it without the bounds
of its natural color. 1t is so pliable
that her release of tone or the
sharp differentiation between fortis-
simo and pianissimo is a joy to
hear. Besides this she has i'm
mersed herself in the meaning of
these songs, and the pure, elevated
reading of the ave Maria is
finely balanced by the more sor-
rowful and dramatic Gretchen am
Spinnrad." Both show the excellent
training and the innate talent of
this greatly gifted singer, and all
those interested in having some-
thing new and highly artistic at
the same time will appreciate this
recording.
