Highest Parachute Jump in America Made
By Physician to Aid Combat Pilots

The first time that Lieut.. Col. w.
r. Lovelace leaped with a parachute
he made the longest descent ever
recorded in America-40,2 200 feet. He
was acting as guinea pig for thou
sands of American pilots who might
be faced with the necessity for max
ing similar jump.
Lovelace, who is acting chief to
the U. S. army air forces aero med
ical laboratories, Wright Field, exc
cuted this daredevil feat to deter
mine the effect of extreme high al
titude on the human body, and to
gauge the effectiveness of existing
emergency bail-out equipment.
Colonel Lovelace wore regulation
underclothes, trousers and blouse.
He wore an outer suit of gabardine
and under it processed Chicken
feather" suit for extra warmth. He
had on helmet and goggles, and two
pairs of gloves, one of silk, next to
the hands, and another of leather.
Emergency oxygen was in two bot
ties. each good for about 20 minutes

STAR GAIN

Remember when you received
stars for good behavior in elemen-
tary school? Well, now you get
stars for glamour. Buy yourself a
supply of paper stars in gold, sill
yer and co1ors at the stationery store
and then try some of these starry
tricks.
WOLF BAIT-Nothing gets the
stag line at a formal like gold or
silver stars sprinkled over your
long, flowing locks. It's positively
ethereal!
ALL STUCK UP-It's O. K. to be
stuck up with stars. For instance.
paste a star on the lobe of each ear
instead of earrings. For finger tip
fascination, paste a little star on
each nail over your polish.

Industry Predominant

The report shows how agricul-
ture has ceased to be our greatest
source of wealth, how industry has
become pre-eminent and to main
tain our agriculture, a healthy con-
dltlon of industry must be main
tanned. The old statement is quot
ed: "Tell me the amount of factory
payrolls and I will tell you the price
OF meat and butter"
The plans for our own agriculture
are fairly simpIe-maintena of
the same type of specialization now
going on. The plan for Europe is
more complicated but since the
question of whether the people of
western Europe eat at all for the
next few years, depends largely on
what Russia, the United States and
the other grain producing countries
do, these countries may be able to
get western European countries to
do what we want.
According to the Midcontinent
planners, an arrangement should be
made whereby western Europe for
a period-perhaps IS years-would
absorb our surplus wheat, pork,
lard and other farm products. Pro-
duction of these products would be
stopped in western Europe and re-
sources saved would be put to eff
ficient use. The producing countries
would assist in recognizing Euro
pean agriculture to this changeover.
The producing countries would also

boys and girls initials with nail pol
ish on their glasses. No danger
of a mix-up, then.
FAKE EARRINGS-A dot of nail
polish on the lobe of each ear will
give the effect of button earrings
only much more comfortable.
WISH BONE WINNER-The next
time you have poultry for dinner,
salvage the wish bone, dry thorough
ly, then cover with red nail polish.
Attach a little red, white and blue
ribbon and wear as ''V" on your
lapel Or attach a bobby pin and
wear in your hair. Or string few
wish bones on yarn chain for a
necklace.

One interesting point brought out
is that in this period of expanding

Diary of a Broadcaster

Let me tell you of another crazy
rumor story that I heard today. 1t
is so old that it has whiskers but
people up and down this land are
listening and believing it.
A reliable, otherwise hardheaded
man told me that an acquaintance
of his wife had a friend or relative
who had a. letter from her boy, a
prisoner in Japan. The boy said
that he was being well treated and
then made a reference to his stamp
collection.
He had none, so the remark got
the people to thinking-they repeat
ed it "then the FIJI or somebody"
took the letter, steamed off the
stamp, and under it was written
Well, before the man finished tell
ing it, I said: 81 know what was
under it-They've cut my tongue
OUT
How did I guess? Well, I heard
that story dozen times in the last
World war.
But to make sure, I made a few
inquiries, simply to check the pro-
cedure. In the first place, prisoners
of war don't use stamps. They can't
write direct to their next of kin. The
messages all, are relayed through
the International Red Cross anyhow.

WNU Service, Union Trust Building,
Washington, ID. G.

Out Of the part of the world farth-
est from the fighting, literally and
figuratively, has come an interest
ing international prescription for the
cure of the worlds postwar head
ache-the spell. of depression that
we have to be ready for.
The formula is summarized in
43-page pamphlet that I wish every
one could read. The title is ''The
Midcontinent, and the Peace" The
cover is an earthly brown embel-
lished with alternating rows of gold
en- grain sheaves, fat porkers and
trucks.
It is report made jointly by the
Universities of Minnesota and Mani
toba. It has nothing to do with de-
partments of state, it has no official
status beyond the fact that the
American and Canadian governors
asked their respective state univer-
sites to do the job. 1t is splendid
doWn-to-brass-tacks example of the
recognition of the common interests
of two important areas lying on op-
posite sides of an International
boundary line.
The gist of the report is this:
I. Western Europe must arrange
greatly to increase it's imports of
wheat, lard and pork after the war.
H. Canada and the United States
must reorganize their automobile
producing industries so that a maxi
mum employment in Canadian fac
tories can be maintained; cost Of
autos be reduced to Canadian buy
ers and American car output in
creased.
Ill Agriculture in the prairie
provinces of Canada and the central
northwest United States must con-
tinue along the lines Of agricul-
tural specialization developed out of
necessity during the war.
The Connection
Now, at first glance, the connec-
ton between these steps may not
ibe evident, but the report makes
the whole effort clear and also
shows how the program can be car
ried out There is nothing new or
revolutionary in the methods dis
cussed, nor in the reasoning con-
corning their results, but striking
assemblage Of data gathered and
arranged in such a manner that it
offers what appears to be logical
program Of action.
In the first place, the report shows
how domestic economic policies
(the ones I briefly summarized in
the three points above) are, in fact,
international policies. It demon
strates with figures and explanation
that "sound and strong internal
economies in Canada and the United
States" must have "resoundingly
important effects on the external
world"
Examples offered to prove this in
clude the figures which show how
the rise and fall of demand in Can
ada and the United States affected
other parts of the world UP to and
after the depression hit us in 1929.
In less than three decades, i'm
ports in the United States of ten
different commodities increased
from 300 to 1,700 million dollars
worth. Take silk: the yearly aver
age importation of silk bought by the
United States from 1901-05 amount
ed to As million dollars. In 1929,
It had jumped to 432 million dol
lars. But when the depression
struck, it fell to ia million dollars
In 1882.
The total imports of the ten COM
modities dropped from LIB mil
lion to 534 million dollars-and you

agree to reduce certain tariffs so
that the Europeans can pay for the
agricultural products they absorb
with goods they can make. (Of
course, there is the tough spot.)
AS for changeovers in agriculture,
it is pointed out that they are not
new. Minnesota was once the great
est wheat producing state in the
country. That is no longer true.
mixed farming" has greatly in
creased. Diversified farming rose
in Denmark and improved the stand
ard of her people-these changes
come about automatically because
the new type introduced pays bet
ter. Similar changes, it is implied,
could be brought about by ukase, too.
Unfortunately, space does not per-
nit detailed review of this report
but quite as important as it's actual
content are the forces which initial
ed tin the first place, it brings to
our consciousness the mutual inter-
ests of this country and our northern
neighbor which are plain to any
American familiar with Canada and
her people but which many in both
countries ignore. Again, it shows
how groups in two separate coun-
tries can get together and work out
steps mutually beneficial and like
wise advanta 9eous to the whole
world. The most important thing Of
all, however, is the emphasis on the
fact that domestic problems are fire.

A most versatile and refreshing
beverage, suitable for any occasion,
is a cool fruit shrub. A variety of
fruit juices may be combined and
one Of several fruit sherbets may be
floated in the juice. Serve this
tasty beverage either as an appe-
tizer or as a between-meal pickup.
Small amounts of fruit juice left
over from canned fruits may be
extended with fresh or canned fruit
juice. Your dealer will undoubtedly
have several varieties Of milk sher-
bet from which you may choose the
flavor you like best. Since the
Government needs much of the ice
cream for our boys in the service,
and some of the cream is being
used to make butter for our Allies
and armed forces, we will find more
sherbet available for civilians.
There are many delicious ways to
serve fruit sherbets and they At

With less meat for the family, and
higher prices, peanuts, soybeans and
corn meal are wonderful meat re-
placements. They're plentiful, cheap,
healthful and very tasty. Nourish-
ing and delicious dishes can be
made from these products. It's just
in knowing how.
Peanuts are excellent as a meat
substitute, or for blending with a
small amount Of meat, and any
budget can afford them. There's
no end to the variety Of dishes you
can prepare. Try a mock outlet
no meat, but peanuts as base.

Here's slaw that's different:
Shred green cabbage, add chopped
green pepper, onions, radishes and
one-hah cup salted peanuts; serve
with French dressing. When you're
making your own favorite meat loaf,
don't forget the peanuts. Then your
family can have more servings, plus
an extra amount of proteins and
vitamin B1.
Good old-fashioned corn meal can
certainly find a place at any dinner
table. 1t has a wonderful taste and
plenty Of energy value. Polenta is
most palatable and very easy to
make. Saute slices of corn meal
mush and serve with tomato sauce
and grated cheese. Or mix the
cheese with the corn meal before
cooking. Vary it with sliced apples,
prunes. raisins, leftover bacon, or
make a corn meal scrapple with a
cup of cooked ham.
The soybean has been used by the
Chinese for thousands of years. 1t
is one of the most complete foods
known and one of the cheapest.
