 COOKBOOK NOTE
 A couple of months ago, the Army announced 1t was publishing 'The Dehydrated Foods Cooking Manual" the first American cook book to deal exclusively with recipes for preparing dehydrated foods apples, beets, cabbage, eggs, milk, potatoes. etc and even how to make them into pies, cakes and puddings. The text was prepared by the Quartermaster Corps, but before any copies of the book got out, all were recalled and presumably des- troyed. Seems they forgot to edit the book very carefully and were afraid someone might get a belly ache as result of typographical error. But the book will eventually be issued, with multiple revisions.
 The idea of priority airmail" prob- ably won't get any place. It has been proposed to tighten the airmail overburden now thrown on the commercial airlines. the suggestion being based on giving preferential handling to news matter, war bus iness papers, bank communications and rush government official mail, possibly designating the priority mail by an extra stamp for which there would be an extra charge. But postal authorities are against 1t. What they fear Is that everyone would want the priority airmail service, so they'd be right back in the jam they started from.
 LOVE ACROSS THE SEAS
 The Army's 69-cent cable mess ages, which can be sent to any sol- dier overseas by the mere transmits sion of code number, have some interesting gradations on love notes. The scale runs like this:
 26, Greetings; 29, Love; 31, All my love; g, All my love dearest; 42, Kisses; 43, Love and kisses; A, Fondest love and kisses; 45, Well.
 Vice President Henry Wallaces S Washington staff in Board of Eco- homie Warfare is getting a big kick out of the bosss triumphal tour through Latin America. Because he didn't want to make it 'dressy' tour, filled with functions, and be- cause he was going by air and was limited as to baggage anyway, the V. P. took along only two tropical weather suits, besides the winter suit he wore on leaving Washing ton. What MT. Wallace wanted to do was get out in the country and talk to the farmers and common people. But every place he visited, there have been parades, protocols and punctilious. Big worry in Wash ington is how these three suits are standing the strain.

tributed by the noted Polish artist
Arthur Szyk. The symbolism of this
striking Illustration, which faces the
title page, is described as follows:
EFT portrays the Jews as defiant
and unafraid, marching confidently
and dauntlessly into the future. In
his arms he bears his most precious
and eternal possession, the portable
fatherland, the Torah. Draped
round his shoulders is the mantle
of royalty that eclipses the yellow
badge he perforce must wear. In
his right hand is the shepherds
staff of leadership; in his left, the
TESTERS bauble betokening his un-'
failing sense Of humor in the midst
Of adversely. Accompanied by the
stag of eternity, he serenely goes
his way in scorn of the bloated toad
of pride, the arrogant parrot of
vanity and the Kissing serpent Of
treachery, coiled around the tree of
life. Beneath is the Shield of David,
bearing the, scales of justice and
the doves of peace, with its crest Of
the crown of good name and it's
supporting lions of Judah. In the
background are the brilliant-clouds
of hope ana at the base are the
grapes Of fertility that promise o
happier future"
