NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 14.-R-
Assistant Secretary of Labor Dan
Tracy today said labor's divided
ranks should make peace and unite
to preserve gains already made be-
fore employers can take advantage OF
the differences between the warning
factions.
But, Daniel J.. Tobin, president OF
the AFL's Transfers union, said ne
"a, no immediate prospect Of peace
with the Congress Of Industrial Or
g%anizations, principally because OF
| Jurisdiction differences.
Labor will have to unite to keep
it's social gains" said Tracy in an
interview after his arrival here for
the American Federation of Labor
annual convention opening Monday.
1T must take the long view, going
beyond the defense program and into
the years to come.
IF labor doesn't unite, employers
will take advantage of the split again
as it has in the past. If the recent
| election had produced a congress mi
mical to labor it might have begun
tearing down those gains"
Asserting that the President an6

Flying Cadet Places
Open At Army School

Many vacancies exist for ap-
pointment as flying cadet in the
U. S. army air corps due to cur
rent army expansion, Captain
Claire Stroh, president Of the fly
ing cadet board of this area
which meets at Maxwell field,
Alabama, announced yesterday.
Requirements for appointment,
he said, are the same as in the
past. Applicants must be unmar-
ried and between the ages Of 20
and q. Those with two or more
years Of college are exempt from
scholatic tests but others are re-
quired to pass an examination in
high school subjects. All must un-
dergo a PHYSICAL examination for
flying, he said, but contrary to
general opinion the physical exam
ination is not difficult and any
one in normal general health can
pass it.
Flying cadets are paid a salary
of SIS a month and receive food,
clothing, sleeping quarters and
medical attention at government
expense. They are sent to a civil
elementary flying school for ten
weeks of instruction and are sub
sequently assigned to basic, ad'
vanced and specialized flying
schools to complete their train
ing. The complete course requires
about 80 weeks.

Flank steak is another daily low cost value offered by almost every butcher in the country. It's a wedge shaped cut of solid meat recogniz- able by its long fibers running lengthwise. Excellent for stuffed steak, flank may be used also for stews or rolled for pot roast. It does handsomely in pot pie. Because its fibers run 1engthwise, the meat should be scored with a sharp knife against the grain before it is cooked.
 Flank Steaks
 Have flank steak scored at the market. Dredge with flour and brown on both sides in hot lard. Season with salt and pepper. Add 1-2 cup hot water and cook slowly on top of stove or in moderate oven (350 degrees F.) until done, about hour.
 Variations
 1. For Lquod, use IA cup ketchup and IA cup hot water.
 2. Make paste of 1-2 teaspoon sugar and tablespoons cider vine gar. When the flank steak is Drowned, spread evenly with this mixture.
