Avocados are very cheap right now,
being in season, and there are many
ways to use them, but did you ever
think of adding an avocado, finely
diced, to an omelette. 1t imparts a
rich delicious flavor.
Chopped ripe olives which may
be purchased in small cans are an
other tasty addition to an omelette or
to scrambled eggs.

PULSE OF
THE PUBLIC
No LASTING PEACE
by John Hix

Editor. The Times: Your re-
cent editorial THE World After
the War" will retrace our men,
cries to the days prior to and dur
ing the last war. We asked the
same question. knowing not
what the future would reveal.
However, we had Woodrow Will
sons IL points-a masterpiece
conceived Of q great and noble
mind for our guidance. also for
a lasting peace Of Europe.
The New World Order as
espoused by the Axis. or the
Four Square Order favored by
Eden of England. are based on
nothing more substantial than a
mere promise. President Will
sons high ideals were based
upon facts. and yet. they were
ignored by our allies as soon as
their dangers were past and
their fears allayed. They had a
ring of steel in the form Of
puppet states around Germany,
and INDUCING In wishful think
ing. they went to sleep.
Regardless who may win this
war, Europe and the world will
never enjoy a lasting peace, I'M
less the Europeon nations unite
into free and sovereign states,
with a government similar to
ours. All nationalism, militia
rism. dictstors and kings should
be abolished. Every state with
in the union, no matter how
small. must have an equal voice.
The western hemisphere. includ-
ing the whole American CONT
nent. New Zealand and Aus
tralia. should form a union un-
der United States protection
and guidance.
The money and materials now
spent TO keep the European and
the Asiatic bells burning would
develop this continent beyond
the fondest dreams of any liv-
ing man. We could have an
army, navy and air force 80
strong that no nation or group
OF nations would dare TO attack
us. Moreover, is there any valid
reason for this race hatred and
this race suicide by war? Are
the people OF Europe As = whole
not Of the same race? Surely.
no one with any sense would
claim that any one nationality
Is superior. They all are equally
human and equally brave. They
all have the same faults and the
same virtues. American pros
perity is due to the union OF all
states and the patriotism Of
united people. Let Us retain this
unity and not become Europe
snized,

criticism have not penetrated

senator from Florida is hold
ing up construction Of homes for
officers and troops at sthree
fields with his demand that the
building contracts be awarded
to friendly Florida contractors.
Last winter the army report
ed the urgent need for 100
homes to be occupied by enlist
ed men at Eglin field, where Mr..
Pepper forced the use of the
Florida concerns asphalt. al
though the air corps preferred
concrete. New York insurance
interests were ready to finance

Pepper got busy. He insisted
that preference be given TO his
crowd. As a result. three months
OF delay ensued before the con-
tract was awarded TO the Paul

Fla. The army backed down.
Although the housing Is only
a $4,000 project. the taxpay-
ers will pay Tor Peppers obstin-
