STRAND

"They Met in Bombay" co-star- ring Clark Gable and Rosalind Rus sell, opened yesterday ct Warmers Strand theater with capacity at- tendance at all performances. The crossroads of the colorful Far East lend C. dramatic panorama to the adventure-packed, romantic exploits of Gable and Miss Russell There where East meets West, Gable and Miss Russell pit their resourceful talents against each other in a streamlined drama which offers both new acting opportunities.
 Gable portrays devil-may -carc adventurer who, having been ca- shiered out of the army, turns to crime in reckless but nevertheless clever attempt to maintain the out- ward appearance of a gentleman. He carries off the masquerade with all the nonchalance that might be expected, outwitting his victims when he can and meeting extraor- dinary situations with typical he- man violence when he has to.
 As a perfect foil, Miss Russell, il challenging reversal from zany roles, portrays @ feminine Rallies with penchant for annexing :itle aliases and any loose diamonds that attract her eye. She masks her mos tives under a suavity as studiously finished as Gables.
 Heading the supporting cast of They Met in Bombay" Is the dls- tinguished character actor, Peter Lore, with other important roles handled by Jessie Ralph, Edward Ciannelli, Matthew Boulton, Luis Alberni, Rosina Cali, Jay Novello and. Reginald Owen.

 To many New Workers, this rural display will not be something new, For those skeptics who won't be- lieve that a New Yorker knows 8 turkey from Q Broadway flop or Rhode Island Red from New Eng land Communist here are just @ few facts n figgers:
 New Workers not only own and operate thousands of farms around the metropolitan area (these are some 12,000 farms within the city's trading area), but they work 456 within the city limits.
 Over 10000 school children, un- der the auspices of the Board of Education, annually cultivate many acres of truck gardens on city lots.
 The only reason that you don't see chickens and ducks in New York apartmens or cattle and swine in Gotham front yards is that the city's sanitation code forbids the keeping of livestock and poultry. FAIR WAS IN THE

Turkey StroddIes Road To Rich Oil Reserves

TURKEY sits on the fence in = World War II torn between broadly sentiments and pro-axis realities. British defeats in Africa and the Balkans and the many victories of the Nazi legions have rendered Turkey a pawn in the game of power politics.
 The Turkish predicament is due to the fact that the country strad- dies an intended German right-of- way to the oil fields of Iraq and Iran. It is estimated Germany needs 7,000,000 and Italy 2,000, ,000 tons of oil annually to run axis war machines. The rich Mosul oil fields of Iraq alone produce half that much.
 When World War II broke out Turkey vehemently stated her in- tention to protect her borders with "a million bayonets" against all aggressors. That talk was replaced by an uneasy silence as Hitler's blitzkrieg swept through Europe.
 Optimistic figures list Turkish army strength at 1000, ,000, with a potential reserve of 7,000,000. Ac- tually that figure might we'll be halved. Included in the reserve are such units as the Scout Bug lers, which the government hon. cred alphabetically in 1888 in the stamp above, whose military value Is slight. .

NO POLITICS FOR
 DRAFT OFFICIALS
State Director AverilI Notifies All Members of
 New Ruling

Members of local boards, boards of appeal. Government appeal agents examining physicians, although working without compensation as a part of the Selective Service Sys- tenn in Connecticut, are considered officers of the United States with in the meaning of the Hatch Act having been appointed by the Presi- dent, and must therefore take nc active part in political management or political campaigns, according to a legal opinion received from National Selective Service headquar- ters today by Colonel Ernest L. Averill, state director.
 The opinion was not sought in Connecticut but was sent to the State Headquarters because the issue had apparently been raised in some other state.
 Persons appointed by the gover- nor, such as members of advisory boards for registrants and mem bers of the medical advisory boards, are considered neither officers nor employees within the meaning of the Hatch Act and the ruling does not therefore apply to them, Colonel Averill pointed out.
 In addition to the uncompensat- ed help affected by the ruling, Ma tional Headquarters emphasized in its ruling that all paid employees of the Selective Service System re- gardless of the position held are definitely affected by the Hatch act.

 The secozd smash hit in the States TnRmmoth fall hit parade ar- rives ct that theater on Saturday with tie presentation of Here Comes Afr. Jordan" regarded as one of the finest pictures ever made.
 One of the finest casts ever as- sembled is presented in "Here Comes Mir. Jordon" with likeable Robert Montgomery in the starring role. Principal supporting players include Claude Rains, Evelyn Reyes, James Gleason, Edward Everett Horton, Rita Johnson and John Emery.
 According to advance reports Here Comes MT. Jordan" is a story never told on the screen before, a comedy which dares to break every rule of film-lnaking, even as 1t achieves @ high level of entertain ment. Its characthers are said to be gay, adorable, hateful, human; its story still has Hollywood chuckling.
 Montgomery is seen as @ fellow named Joe, Q lkable guy with a sense of hunlor who is obsessed with one overwhelming ambition. Tn pur- suit of that ambition he is helped by sympathetic, kindly, dignified MT. Jordan and by MT. Jordan's unique understanding of problems and of their solutions.
 In the role of MT. Jordan, Claude Rains is said to provide one of the years most magnificent perform ances. Similarly, James Gleason tops even his outstanding Meet John Doe" characterization, with his work in the new hit, and Edward Everett Horton contributes another of his delightfully fuddled roles.
 Miss Reyes, as the romantic lead, is said to fulfill that promise of early stardom revealed by her in Gone with the Wind," similarly, lovely Rita Johnson contributes @ performance which in @ motion pie ture less capable cast, would have won her immediate and scintillant stardom.
 NAll In all, "Here Comes MT. Jor- don" is definitely one picture you must" see. Put 1t at the top of your list and be sure to attend the open- ing performance tomorrow at the State.
 As the second big hit of the pro- gram the management presents Bullets for OIIara," a thriller -diller with Joan Perry, Roger Pryor, An- thony Quinn and Maris Wrixon.

France" And tne fans 0 fthat uns happy nation refer to M. Tracy as "the Jean Cabin of America"
 Such 6 situation would whip up jealous rivalry between two aver- age-and particularly, feminine - stars, but Cabin and Tracy are pals, Soon after the Frenchlnan came here, they spent an evening together. Cabin knew no more than six words of English, and Tracy hadn't ever learned to pronounce his guests name. It's Ga-bann, with the last syllable accented. Being actors, they made Q game o frying to make each other understood. By the time Cabin went home he could say with fair clarity: "Okay, but make 1t c short one."
 BROOKLYN ACCENT
 You ought to hear him now. Tn little more than two months the newcomer has learned to speak Americanese without accent and with few of the inverted phrasings that many foreigners use. Matter of fact, he sounds amazingly like Jim- my Cagney.
 All this has been done in four daily hours of studying Joy a fellow who generally played hockey from school and ran away from 1t forever at the age of l2. Cabin has revised other early tastes. His father, 6 cabaret comedian, always had urged Jean to be an actor but the son wanted no part of 1t. What he most wanted, for awhile, was to be . prizefighter like his brother-in.law.
 So he fought and worked in Q foundry, and presently had to put in his two years of military serv- ice. Out of that, and unable to ind any sort of Job, he finally allowed his father to find something for laim--a place as Q chorus boy in the Folies Bergere. Cabin thus became the most unsual-looking gentleman of the ensemble since Wallace Beery's hoofing days on Broadway.
 He became Q song -and-dance man, soon was doing comedy (which he hated) on the stage and in French pictures. It was through dramatic parts that ne got 70 pe vop seAE in his own country.
 HIKES HIS GINGER
 Cabin trotted around with Mar lene Dietrich when he first was brought to Hollywood, His current attraction, though, is Ginger Rogers. Back in France, he admitted, friends used to rib him about the blind crush he had reveloped for Ginger, just from seeing some of her pic" lures.
 It was several weeks before he n1ct Miss Rogers, and by that time he had learned enough English to ask for Q date. They're getting along fine.
 In June, 1889, Cabin had just built q new home 75 miles from Paris and was in the midst of production on a picture when he received his mobilization order.
 "rt Is easier for me to learn the language" said Cabin, than to get used to @ country where there is peace and plenty to eat"

has a long history. The first one was held back in 1928, when the Ameri- can Institute of the City of New York was chartered to hold an an- nual fair in the county, among other things,
 In the early days these fairs were primarily industrial expositions. At them, Americans first glimpsed many an inventor that was to revo- lutionize their way of life. The tele- phone, the telegraph, the sewing machine the safety pin, and con- densed milk were among them. Many New York landmarks are closely associated with past fairs. It was during the fair of 1858 that the famed Crystal Palace, in which the exposition was held, burned to the ground.

Our Consumption of
Fruits, Vegetables
On the Increase

In no respect have our food habits
changed more than In our consump-
ton Of fruits and vegetables. There
are two factors which have influ-
enced this, and one Is as important
as the other.
The spread Of nutrition informa-
ton, which has shown the impor-
tant part which these foods play in
the growth and development of
young bodies and the maintenance
throughout life. has created de-
mand. Improved methods of trans
portation, of canning and of quick
freezing have made 1t possible for
us to procure a supply at reason
able price.
In spite Of these facts there still
are many of us who do not take
daily enough of these important
foods to supply us with the miner
ais and vitamins which are their
chief assets. Perhaps the next
generation will be less open to criti-
ciSm on this count. because infants
are given foods of this sort so early
that taste for them is developed
and habits are formed.
We have found that adults who
say they dislike vegetables can be
converted to eating them when they
are properly cooked. The most out
standing example of this is to be
found in the case of cabbage, which
when overlooked Is dark in color
