Serve More Milk.
Butter and Fruit
In Modern Menus
BY MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX
NEA Service Staff Writer

NEA Service Staff Writer
The new American food econ
omy calls for more milk, more
butter, more fruits, more green
colored and leafy vegetables and
more eggs in the diet, according
to Hazel K. Stiebeling, senior food
economist, Economics Division,
United States Bureau of Home
Economics.
When a great nation sets about
to put itself on a total defense
footing, certainly part of it's effort
should 60 to securing diets that
are INTENTIONALLY good for it's citi-
zens if those citizens are going to
be up to the job of national de-
tense. Americans like to brag of
their diet as pretty dafned good"
But the usual domestic diet in this
entry needs more protective
foods to deserve being called good
nutritionally," DR.. S%tiebeling in
sists.
Milk is INTENTIONALLY good &C
cording to the feed of the COWS,
for example. Green vegetables are
vitamin rich according to the rich
ness of the soil in which they were
grown. "One of the greatest needs
In this new campaign for family
defense is basic information on
nutrition for teachers and club
and group leaders and others who
can help put over the job of teach
ing the American housewife the
facts of modern nutrition.
DR. Stiebeling uses the army diet
as an example. Army food is
abundant and generous. The men
are given a large supply of food
so that whatever selection they
make will still be protected from
a nutritional standpoint. But the
army knows that it a man is to
fight well and have stamina, he
must be satisfied with his food, no
matter how odd his taste may be.
Therefore the army diet leaves
room for selection although the
generous menus are planned to in
clude all nutritional require
ments."

practical recipes from 48 states,
written by the Browns, will aid
you in adjusting nutritional prin-
ciples to your local tastes.

INAUGURATION STANDS

The presidential Inauguration is
nearly three months off but already
white-overalled carpenters are busy
erecting stands and seats on Capt.
tol Plaza. Reason for this unusual
haste is-the defense program.
IF we waited much longer" ex-
plains David Lynn, veteran Capitol
architect, 1--WE wouldn't be able to
get any lumber. The erection of
the great camps for the selective
service trainees has caused a short
age in the lumber market. The gov
eminent is buying up all the good
lumber it can get for the canton
ments."
The lumber shortage also will af-
feet the seating capacity. There will
be room for only 1880 spectators
1000 less than in 1897. Congress
appropriated the same amount of
money as four years ago, but with
increased material and lumber costs
the $35, 900 isn't going as far.

PROBLEM TOWNS

The defense commission is getting
its noisiest headaches from the de-
mand of inland communities for de-
tense industries. Hardly a day
passes without bombardment of
demands that plants be located in
certain localities. To this din has
now been added a barrage Of new
demands by towns that have al
ready been favored.
These defense boom towns, over
run with thousands Of new residents.
are confronted with serious housing
sanitation, police and other prob
lens and are bounding the commits
sion for help. In some places the
problem is so serious that the COM
mission is considering recommend
ing to congress public works pro-
gram which would give them the
projects outright-that is, 100 per
cent free.
An example of such boom town
Is Charlestown, Ind, site of what
may become the worlds largest
powder plant. A sleepy hamlet of
800, overnight Charlestown was
transformed into q seething city of
5000, with perhaps is, 900 in pros
pect by January as the new powder
plant expands.
Naturally this boom brought thou
sands Of workers, spectators, comp
followers and others to Charlestown.
Housing soon became non-existent,
prices skyrocketed, and one enter
prising realtor even started to sub
divide an ancient cemetery into
town lots
The town has no sewer system,
the tiny municipally-owned water
plant is totally inadequate, and the
community treasury is so broke
that it can't even pay the salary of
town marshal, although a govern
ment payroll of more than $75 900
is now cashed every week at the
towns bank. The boom has spread
to Jeffersonville, IL miles away, and
to New Albany, 18 miles distant,
where housing can't be had for love
or money.
In this dilemma the town fathers
turned to Uncle Sam, to the WPA,
the U. S. Housing authority, the
Federal Housing administration,
even the White House, and finally
to Frank Bane, director of the state
and local division Of the defense
commission.
At the Presidents orders, a plan
has been worked out under which
the defense commission, the state
Of Indiana and the town will set up
a joint planning body to transform
Charlestown into community capa-
bic of meeting its problems.

him who composed annie Laurie"
which he was to sing. Somebody
else piped up and said, Robert

have won money on that question

words of the popular old song.
Furthermore, he knew its history
that 1t developed as the result of
a romance between william Doug
las, young Scotsman, and the real
Annie Laurie; because her hard
hearted father objected TO the rO-
nance, Douglas went of to the
Flemish wars without claiming her
as his bride. The verses, composed

tant relative of Annie Laurie's, and
she altered the words and composed

ing to straightsn my business out
for $500.
Ans: Keep your $500. It will
only be a matter of days before
you learn the truth. Your hus-
band isn't cheating if he was
with any woman at the time in
question the woman was his sister.
His strange actions will be ac-
counted for on Christmas day, for
he has a secret present for you and
he can hardly hold himself from
telling you about it beforehand.
This gift is being kept at his sis
ter's house and that is where he
has been going for the past few
nights. Shame on you for doubling
his love for you.
H. C. Twill me and my wife
ever go together again?
Ans: That's out. You and your
wife would be foolish to even think
of going back together. You fought
like cats and dogs all during your
marriage so why start that
battle all over again. No, brother,
I predict a marriage in your life
during 1941 but not with your
former wife. The wedding I have
in mind will be with the "cute
trick" whose love you now have.
Furthermore, she will make you a
good wife.
L. E. LII am so worried about
my boy. He stays out so late at
night sometimes till IL o'clock
or later. I don't know what he is
doing and I am so afraid he will
get into trouble. I have lots of
faith in you and have come to you
for great many years.
Ans: I think the boys late hours
are causing you needless worry.
He's old enough to look after him
self and has no desire to get into
mischief. His tbuddies are pool
players and card sharks =. that's
the extent of his mischief. If pos
sible, encourage him to go to night
school and take up a trade he
should be preparing himself for
the future.
