Timidity Of Buyers
Prevents Strong
Recovery Trend
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Mrite,

NEW YORK, April 27.-The re-
covery theme again dominated to-
days stock market, with leaders
adding fractions to around 2 points
to Wednesdays comeback.
The principal flaw in the bullish
picture, however. was the buying
timidity. Dealings were slow from
the start and turnover for the full
proceedings of about 100000 shares
was among the smallest for a five
hour stretch this year. Closing
prices were at or near the days best.
There was a trickle of investment
funds into selected stocks on the
belief that expected European
eventualities had been fairly well
discounted by the recent composite
decline to within touching distance
of the 1914 low. At the same time,
potential purchasers inclined to
conservatism pending the next
Allied European move.
Schenley, up 4B in the preceding
session, tackled on a point or so in
the wake of optimistic earnings
forecasts for this distiller. In front
were Union Pacific, Santa Fe,
Southern Railway, American Sugar,
Texas Co., Westinghouse, Union
Carbide, Johns-Manville, Chrysler,
Montgomery Ward, Sears Roebuck,
Bethlehem and Oliver Farm.

Postwar Market Kew
10 Stock Price Trend
BY the Associated Press.

os tAe NSSoCiateu FEeSS.
Stock market prices now bear
more relation to postwar prospects
than the level of profits, the COM
merce Department reported today.
1t noted these contrasting trends
in major war industry groups:
"In the case of shipbuildings,
stock prices increased sharply
through 1941 and then declined to
a point below the 1889 level.
I'm aircraft, the trend has been
downward since 1910 and the
average in the first quarter of 1914
was about 80 per cent below that
of 1899.
I'm both these industries, IN
vestors apparently were concerned
with postwar market prospects in
the light of greatly expanded pro-
ductive capacity"
On the other hand, the report
noted an upward trend in two in
dustry groups which look forward
to a great backed-up civilian de-
mand-the automobile and tire and
rubber groups.

|0PA 10 Cut CeiIinq
On Heavy Hogs
To Conserve Corn
Ey the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
In a move to conserve corn, cur
rent ceiling prices on hogs weighing
more than 240 pounds will be re-
duced rs cents a hundredweight
effective May Is, the Office of Price
Administration announced last
night.
The action, which follows closely a
War Food Administration order re-
stricting the sale of corn to Gov
ernment buyers in 125 Midwest corn
belt counties in five States, was
taken by OPA in conference with the
VIA, the War Production Board
and the Office of Economic Stabili-
Zation.
The reduction in the ceiling is in
tended, the price agency said, "to
discourage the use of corn and other
essential grains in bringing hogs UP
to heavy, uneconomical weights"
Corn saved will be diverted to
industrial programs for war needs.
The 75-cent price cut will reduce
the Chicago ceiling on hogs weigh
ing more than 240 pounds to $14 a
lhundredweight.

The Club de Teudi Dimes

August weather being what it is
the members of the Club de Jeudi,
at their get-together last Thursday,
were more than delighted when
they found that their host and self
appointed chef for the evening had
planned dinner thoroughly in
keeping with the thermometer.
There was nice balance of hot
and cold foods and the selection
was light enough and appealing
enough in appearance to tempt the
most heat -jaded appetite.
This was the menu:
Hot Crab Meat Appetizers
Ham Mousse Ring, Filled With Cold
Cooked Vegetables
Little Hot Biscuits
Vanilla Ice Cream With Fresh
Peaches Macaroons
Coffee
The hot crab meat hors d'oeuvres
were really a work of art, and so
delicious that the amateur male
chef vowed the next time he made
them he would double the recipe
He explained how he prepared
them: He made one cup of white
sauce thick) by his usual recipe
Then he seasoned it we'll with
Worcestershire sauce, onion juice
cayenne and a little salt. Then he
faxed good lump crab meat care
fully, picking 1t over we'll to elm
mate any bonY bits, and added it

sauce made this way: Beat u cup
cream as stiff as possible, and fold
into it one tablespoon freshly ground
horseradish, three tablespoons may
onnaise, "a teaspoon prepared mus
tard, and salt and cayenne to taste.
Be sure the sauce is well blended
and thoroughly chilled before serv-
ing.
To make the dessert extra special,
prepare the peaches early in the
day. Peel and slice them, and sprin-
kle literally with lemon juice to
keep them from turning dark. Add
a little sugar to them, and pour over
the slices one or two wine glasses
Of kirsch, or light rum. Cover the
bowl, and let the peaches marinate
in this mixture in the refrigerator
until they are served with the ice
cream.
When the peaches are passed in
their separate bowl, to be poured
over the ice cream. top the peach
slices with sprinkling of slivered
blanched almonds. The combina-
Ition of flavors is something to re-
member for a long, long time to
come.
With this dinner a pale rose wine,
we'll chilled, was served with the
ham, and with the dessert, as a
special treat, a good brand of do
mestic champagne made its appear
ance. American champagnes are
getting better and better-especial-
ly If one takes the trouble to seek
out the dry and older types.

Crab-Filled
Peppers

1t so happens that juicy, green
peppers and delectable Chesapeake
Bay crabs are in season together.
And so folks on the Eastern Shore
of Maryland take full advantage.
OF course, only meat from fresh
caught crabs Is used, but hereto
souls in less favored sections say
that the trick can be done with
canned crab meat and some say they
use chopped shrimp.
Anyhow, get half a dozen or so
nicely chosen green peppers. Cut
into halves lengthWise. Remove
seeds. Parboil the peppers for a few
minutes in boiling water. Then they
are ready to fill with this mixture
About two cups of well-picked-over
cooked crab meat, two well-beaten
eggs, one tablespoon chopped pars-
ley, one teaspoon curry powder and
one tablespoon chopped onion. Salt
and pepper to taste, and a speck of
tobasco sauce if extra snap is de-
sired.
Fill the pepper shells, cover the
tops with bread crumbs, dot with
bits of butter and bake in a hot
oven to brown the tops-about 1C
to Is minutes.
II you prefer, omit the curry
powder and substitute lemon Juice
and teaspoon of dried mustard. II
more moisture is desired, add a ta-
blespoon Of mayonnaise when the
beaten eggs are mixed in.
