| Mushrooms
Add to
| Menu :
By Edith M. Barber

Most vegetable crops are dependent
upon weather. Mushrooms, how
ever, care nothing about drought
or flood. They grow comfortably un-
der all conditions in the houses
where they are cultivated. They are
supplied with the type of earth they
like the best and are given plenty
of water. Then when they are ready
they just shoot up overnight and are
picked in their first youth for mar
ket.
The center Of the mushroom in
dustry IS Southeastern Pennsyl-
vania, where millions of pounds are
grown each year for marketing in
fresh form and for canning on the
spot. There Is no magic about the
Pennsylvania soil or climate, and
mushrooms are grown, to some ex-
tent, in other States. The demand
this year will probably be greater
than ever now that dried mushrooms
are no longer coming from Italy and
China.
A few mushrooms add touch OF
flavor to innumerable dishes and a
mushroom sauce with steak, meat
loaf or fish is very popular. In
broiled, sauteed or creamed form
you have the answer to the question
Of what to have for a quick supper
or lunch and a meat saver as well.
Then there are baked stuffed nnush-
rooms. The tough ends Of the stems
may be used for stock, which Is an
addition to any soup or sauce.

 Big Solomon Battle

hoping they would be picked up quickly. They finally spotted life raft, and the two clambered aboard. Several times they were picked up by spotlights of the de- StrOyerS, but were left after it was seen that they were safe. Knowles stated "That's the way they do things" He said that there were many others in the sea without anything to cling to. If they were not picked up first, he said, they never would be saved.
 They were picked up by a des- troyer about 1O:3O a. m. after spending about five or six hours on the raft. The men were landed on New Caledonia several days later and were then shipped home.
 Knowles did not know when he would return to sea. He stated that his leave was up on the 2Srd at which time he had to report to San Francisco. He stated that he hoped he would get a shore job for a little while before he went back to sea.
 He has been in the Navy since January of this year, and the bat tie was the first time he had seen action. He attended Castle Heights Military Academy in Tennessee.

Fireman Third Class Roy Knowles, son of Mrs. F. E. Delay of 1OS Willow street, was aboard the U. S. s. Quincy, heavy cruiser which was sunk in action off the Solomon islands on Au- gust 9.
 Knowles had been transferred to a watch when the ship reached the battle area, and was stationed at a 20 nm. gun watch when the action started. The Quincy had landed Marines on one of the lS- lands and was cruising around for protection when it was struck about 2.3O on the morning of the ninth. Knowles stated that It was believed that two torpedOes had struck the vessel, one of them hitting the power plant.
 He was stationed on the star board side of the ship while all the action took part on the port side he stated. When fire broke out in one of the hangers he aided in attempting to check it, but the blaze was too far gone.
 After the order came to aban- don ship, Knowles and a friend jumped overheard. They swam for about two hours, knowing that there were destrOyerS about, and

GAS APPLICATIONS
 KEEP STAFF BUSY
Volunteer Workers Aid in Sporting Requests for
 Additional Allowances
(NEA Telephoto)-

Applications for supplementary gasoline allowances continued to pour into the local rationing board office on West Main street today as volunteer workers were busy sorting them for computation work which will be conducted throughout the week. Despite previously published statements that the office would be closed today the force was at work as usual and large numbers of per- sons appeared with questions and application forms. Chief Clerk Ed ward Doyle and his staff spent a busy day.
 No estimate could yet be made of the number of car owners who are seeking additional allowances of gasoline, but James E. Mcknight, gas ration administrator, said the board expected large drop because of the stricter regulations. A report released today by the OPA head quarters in Hartford revealed that 45 per cent of 20,706 Waterburians who applied were given supple 1 mental allowances as of September 30. Of that number 6,654 obtained B" allotments while 2,587 secured "C" books. Other allotments were made as follows: ID" A; "E" 265; '.R" 32s; "S-1" 1883; and 'S-2" 5o7.
 Fred Webb, 8 member of the board, is in charge of the volunteer workers who have been asked to re- port from to p. m. and 2 to 9:3O D. m. daily. The books will be issued next Monday through Wednesday. In radio talk yesterday over sta tion VERY, MT. Mcknight termed persons who obtain supplements allowances by misrepresentation ol who buy illegally secured coupons as "saboteurS.

dous income from corporation and business taxes" MT. Baldwin salo. war business income has produced the surplus in spite of efforts of any office holder. And If my oppo- nent claims credit for it, then l say he has no more right to make such claims than he has to tell the peo- pie of Connecticut that he was re- sponsible for the sun rising in the east this morning"
 Hits Attitude
 Striking hard at politics as us ual" in the present Democratic ad- ministration, MT. Baldwin pointed out the necessity for economy and wise spending in government and quoted Governor Hurley's recent re- marks at meeting of the Demo- cratic state central committee as an indication of what the people of Connecticut might expect If the present regime is continued in ot- flee.
 "The press reports the Democratic candidate for governor as saying to his committee: I know that there has been dissatisfaction with pa tronage. But you can't hope to accomplish it al lin two years. This was in sharp contract, MT. Baldwin pointed out, to the high-soundlng phrases upon the platform at the Democratic convention. Because Governor Hurley told his commit tee some of whom had been waiting patiently for 25 or 30 years, and i MT. Baldwin quoted his remarks as l it appeared in the press: Whether you like me or whether you don't like me, remember, that when tht other party wins there is nothing for anybody
 ''The people may well ask" Bald win said. If the Democratic can didate for governor is elected, are the next two years going to be devoted to taking care of office seekers? It mending personal fences? To poll tics as uSual?"
 POst-War Period
 Quoting from the Republican plat form the pledge to give all the peo pie of this state honest, courageous unselfish and efficient governmen for the common good", MT. Baldwin stressed the immediate necessity t eliminate waste and unnecessar expense, to reduce debt and la aside funds for the after the-Wa period of adjustment.
 Real economy and good govern ment mean much to thousands o people in Connecticut" he said Particularly to the thousands Wh do not work in war industries.

gun therapy, and the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps do not want pSy- chopaths, alcoholics, neurotics, or persons with behavior difficulties. It is going to take some time to make these points clear to thep ublic, but if that can be done, and if the present standards of admission can be rigidly enforced, 20 years from now there may be fewer derellcts suffering from the end results of chronic alcoholism and drug add1c- tion in the veterans hospitals of 1862"
 pr. Abraham Myerson, director ot research at the Boston State hospl- tai, also warns that the Army through the selective service system must be careful to weed out the alcoholics.
 ''It can be assumed that in these days of mechanical warfare the m- grained alcoholic should be eXclud- ed from the military forces" saic pr. Myerson in an article on "Alco- l holism and Induction into Military Service.

they have fomented suspicion and hate between neighbors; they have aided and abetted those people in other nations - even our own = whose words and deeds are ad- vertised from Berlin and Tokio as proof of disunity.
 The objective of today is clear and realistic. It Is to destFay com pleteIy the military power of Ger many, Italy and Japan to such good purpose that their threat against us and all the other United Nations cannot be revived a generation hence. We are united in seeking the kind of victory that will guarantee that our grand children can grow and, under God, may live their lives, free from the constant threat of invasion, des- tructiOn, slavery and violent death.
 Perhaps the most difficult phase of the man-power problem is the scarcity of farm labor. l have seen many evidences of the fact, however, that the people are trying to meet it as well as pos sible. In one community that l visited a perishable crop was har- vested by turning out the whole Of the high school for three or four days.
 .. We have made it entirely clear that the United Nations seek no mass reprisals against the populations of Germany or Italy or Japan, but the ringleaders and their brutal henchmen must be named, and apprehended, and tried In accordance with the judicial processes of criminal law. The trouble with the type writer strategists is that, while they may be full of bright ideas they are not in possession of much information about the facts or problems of military operations We, therefore, will continue to leave the plans for this war to the military leaders.
 But 1t is useless to win battles
 if the cause for which we fought these battles is lost. It Is useless to win . war unless it stays won
