Crabs, Now In Season,
A Real Seafood Treat
BY JUDITH WILSON

COFT SHELLED crabs are In
- season and q delicacy worth
considering in menu planning
These are usually broiled or fried,
eaten shell and all with tartar
sauce. Hard-shelled crabs. served
boiled with quartered lemon, are
also worthwhile treat. Only live
crabs should be used. They must
be handled with great care unless
the smaller sides OF the claws are
unjointed.
The difference between a hard
and soft shell crab Is simply one
of time. The shell splits open now
and then. enabling the crab to pull
itself out and grow little, while a
new shell Is forming. But as soon
as the process of growing and
hardening is completed, 1t will be
.hard-shelled crab again. Either
is good eating. and both are rec
commended for variety.

They are one and all crack marksmen and the history of their company goes all the way back to the Battle of San Jacinto. They were with Hood in the Civil War and went through almost all the bitterest battles on the Western Front. The proudest boast of these Spanish-Americans is that they never have had and never will have man drop out on the march. One way they prac- tice to uphold this tradition is to walk and run about during the as- signed rest periods on forced marches. They have record of having marched p miles in a little over seven hours.

WASHINGTON = According to best diplomatic advices available here, it seems probable that Rudolf Hess will be able to give the British almost no Nazi military secrets.
 Inside explanation of his weird airplane flight to Scotland is that Hess had repeatedly warned Hitler against policy of trying to conquer the whole world. This caused break between him and Der Fuehrer, and Hess had been under suspicion for some time.
 Hitler assigned eight or nine Ges- tapo men to watch him constantly. These were the "adjutants' or "aides" described as arrested in Ber- lin dispatches. Apparently Hitler made. the mistake of telling the Ges- tapo merely that Hess was suffering from mental breakdown, and did no tell them the real facts. That was why they let him go to an air plane factory where friend lent him a Messerschmitt 110.
 According to uncensored diplo- matic dispatches, there has been a growing rift between the leaders who built up the Nazi political or ganization and the army leaders who built up the German military ma chimes. The politicians staged the revolution and made big army pos sible; but now the army is in the saddle and plans to stay there.
 5000, 900 GERMAN SOLDIERS
 Today in Germany 9,0O0,000 men are under arms. These men see less and less of Hitler, more and more Of their own officers. Their victories are not victories based on propa- ganda or politics but on efficient organization and a cold-blooded military machine. Propaganda and Nazi "heiling,' made the war pos sible, but the bunker leaders Of Ger manys age-old military caste have taken the country far beyond.
 Into this new evolution of Ger man leadership Hitler has fitted very. very comfortably. He was the first to see Germany's need of a big army, and he is 100 per cent with the army today. If he wasn't, it probably would not matter to the new army leaders, but that exigency hasn't arisen as yet. A
 Goering. born of bunker caste and trained to be an officer, also fits
