Dehydration is not new. In fact,
1t is as ancient as the sun that has
been drying the water out of things
for ages. But to the old dehydra-
ton processes have been added new
techniques that have so revolution
lied its future possibilities, that
some economists predict that food
dehydration plants may become as
common in agricultural areas as
canneries and condenseries are to-
day. An idle dream, you say? Not
so idle, perhaps, when it is consid-
cred that there are more than 200
dehydration plants in the United
States today, compared with only
five in 1910.
J. B. Wyckoff, of the Agricultural
Marketing administration recently
estimated that the United States will
dehydrate vegetables at the rate of
$50 to 400 million pounds in 1913 as
compared with 100 million pounds in
1912. Yet last years totals were
seven times the 1910 volume.
ITO meet the 1884 dehydrated
food requirements as presently
KNOWN" he added, Twill require ev-
cry third egg, and one out of every
IL pounds of whole milk produced.
Requirements for dehydrated meat,
practically non-existent a year ago,
will be approximately 60 million
pounds in 1943."
Dehydration Saves Shipping.
The remarkable impetus given de-
hydration grew out of a shortage of
shipping space, cans and containers,
to meet lend-lease demands and the
food requirements of our fighting
Allies. One ship loaded with de-
hydrated food can carry upward of
10 times as much food as a ship
loaded with bulk food.
Improvements in dehydration
technique have followed two major
trends. One has been to compress
the food into an incredibly small
space. The other has been to pre-
serve the foods palatability and nu-
tritional value.
Many foods normally average 90
per cent water. Dehydration as
originally practiced meant remov-
ing most of the water. Now the
food is not only dehydrated but "de-
bulked" as well, by having the air
pressed out of it. The result is food
compressed into blocks or bri-
quotes. Thus it is possible to have
a vest-pocket serving of meat, car
rots, cabbage, milk and eggs that
would provide all the elements of
hearty meal and yet take up no
more shipping room than package
of cigarettes.

Opposition to
Lewis Fading

Boston. Oct. l1-INS-Organiz-
ed opposition to the return of John
L. Lewis United Mine Workers
Union to the American Federation
OF Labor collapsed at the 63rd an
nual convention Of the AFL in Bos.
ton today.
With the convention launched
into its second week by a speech
by War Manpower Commissioner
Paul V. McNutt, the pro-Lewis
forces were predicting that the
UNIV and its 100000 miners would
be back in federation ranks be-
fore the meeting ends.
There were only two men out OF
600 delegates who were openly op-
posing Lewis application for re af-
filiation. They we're Lloyd Thrush
and John Marchiando. president
and secretary Of the AFL's tiny
progressive Mine Workers Union.
They were, without doubt. the
two loneliest men at the meeting.
Thrush and Marchiando entered
the convention last Monday, just u
week ago, with the tull support Of
the Illinois State Federation of
Labor and some % Of the l07 in
ternational unions in the ALL.
At that time, five of the six res
olutions introduced at the meeting
urged that Lewis be barred from
the Federation. Then, too, the op-
position had centered around the
fact that the UNIV president had
consistently and bitterly fought
President Roosevelt.
Mr.. Roosevelt's friends, includ-
ing Dan Tobin, president of the
Transfers Union, feared that read
mission of Lewis would be mistak-
en- for approval Of his wartime
strikes and anti-Rooseyelt attitude.
However,. when the Machinists
Union was taken back into the Fed.
Grafton to send membership to
some 100000, the Lewis issue lost
its political tinge: and top Fedora
ton leaders began to swing to a
more favorable stand for Lewis.
knowing that return Of the UNIV
would mean that the Federation
would have more than 100000
members.
