Dog Biscuit Ingredients Urged
ToF Feed Liberated Europeans

the associations first wartime
meeting.
I'VE could feed thousands of
people in Europe after the war, for
example, with food having the
same materials as dog biscuits.
These are waste materials and while
they serve an admirable purpose in
feeding dogs and certain other ami
mails, there are sufficient supplies
of them to make perfectly edible
human foods. Dog biscuits are per-
fectly good, perfectly balanced
foods"
DR.. Carlson, who served on Her.
bert Hoover's food commission in
Europe after the World War, said
the United Nations had food sup
plies reasonably adequate" to feed
European peoples after the war, but
that there's nothing we can do to
meet adequately the situation which
will prevail in China and India be-
cause of the overpopulation that
exists"

The treatment applies to cotton

Hayden 10 Seek Action
On S3,375,250,OOO
Postwar Roads Bill
BY the Associat ted Press.


A high-speed postwar highway
system adequate to se,ve an esti-
mated 10000, 900 motor vehicles was
envisioned today by sponsors Of road
construction legislation ready for
Senate consideration this week.
Despairing Of an immediate agree
ment by joint conference committees
seeking to work out Senate and
House differences over reconversion
and surplus property disposal bills,
party leaders summoned absent
Senators back to consider other
major legislation.
Senator Hayden, Democrat, Of
Arizona, said he would move to take
up a pending $3,375, ,250, 900 road
construction proposal tomorrow II
there Is large attendance, and, II
not then, "the first time sight
enough members on the floor to give
1t proper consideration.
He made this statement after
Majority Leader Barkley revealed
steps have been taken to recall SEN
ators who were not included In the
bare quorum available last week.
Senator Barkley told the Senate
Friday he contemplated an effort to
bring up the highway bill "at very
early date"
There's no reason why we can
not go to work on the road program
while We wait for the conference
committees to bring in reports on
the other postwar measures" Sen
ator Hayden told a reporter. I'VE
can always lay our bill aside to per-
init speedy action on the other
measures.
Senator Hayden said estimates are
that the postwar era, If it is pros
porous, will see 10000 900 passenger
cars, trucks and other motor vehi-
cles on the highways, compared
with 34,000,0 900 at the outbreak of
the war and about %, ,000, 900 today
THE belief is that when the new
cars are available and gasoline re-
strictions are off, highway travel
will increase so tremendously that q
completely -modernized road system
will be required" he said.

Poll Of Delegates
Taken by Supporters

~ the Associated Prers.

CINCINNATI, Sept. ll.-Key men
In the movement to extend district
self-rule in the United Mine Work.
ers were taking a private census to-
day among delegates arriving for
the unions biennial convention.
Their flrst tactical objective is a
roll call. To achieve that goal they
need 80 per cent Of the delegates.
This probably means a search for
$50 to 800 delegates who are willing
to stand up and be counted - a
formidable figure In a convention
which usually is overwhelmingly re-
sponsive to President John L. Lewis
and his policies. Close to $500 del
egates may attend the convention,
which opens tomorrow.
Strategy Caucus Today.
The district autonomy advocates
planned a pre-convention strategy
caucus today. They talked conf
IDENTIFY of getting the necessary 80
per cent by Thursday or Friday.
Leader Of the self-rule movement
this year is Ray Edmundson, who
resigned last spring as president Of
the Illinois district, an appointive
Office he filled for nine years. He Is
delegate from Mr.. Lewis own local
union in Springfield.
The local union customarily chose
Mr.. Lewis as one of its delegates but
omitted him this year. This will
make no practical difference to the
UNIV chief. He undoubtedly has
more credentials from other local
unions than he needs to cast the
maximum of five votes permitted an
individual by the UNIV constitu-
ton.
Elect by Referendum.
Mr.. Edmundson also is running
for the UNIV presidency against
Mr.. Lewis, but he is not making
that a major cause. The miners
do not elect their officers in con-
vention but by referendum next De-
cember.
District autonomy is a perennial
controversy but always one of the
most vigorously fought in the con-
vention. Twenty-one of the 81 |
UNIV districts are stated by Lewis
appointed presidents and treas
urers. Mr.. Lewis calls them his
economic cabinet" He terms union
government sheer business prop
osition" and says it is essential to
have competent, efficient officers
who can confront the coal industry

Up Long Island way they have a
method of preparing a fish dish that
is as delicious as it is unusual. It's
called "broiled spiced mackerel.
and 1t has become a favorite with
year round residents of those lovely
shores.
Fillet 31a-pound mackerel and
remove the bones. Qf you can get
ready-prepared fillets of mackerel,
SO much the easier for you) Lay
half the fillets in a baking dish or
casserole and sprinkle them with IL
peppercorns, crushed two small
onions, chopped fine; one tablespoon
salt (you may decide to use a little
more) and one tablespoon dill,
coarsely chopped. Put another lay
er OF fish and seasonings on top of
this one and then pour over all
about two cups of wine vinegar.
Cover, and let stand all night.
Next morning, remove the fillets
from the marinade, and wipe them
fairly dry. Broil them lightly on
both sides. Meanwhile, reduce the
marinade by boiling, to about hall
cup, add to 1t the drippings from
the broiler pan, and little butter.
Stir in tablespoon chopped parsley
and pour over the broiled fillets just
before serving.
The f1llets are especially good
when served with puree Of spinach

hot for a nourishing Saturday night

TO the reader, new publication by
the United States Department of
Agriculture's Bureau of Human Nu-

"One thing is certain" say the
nutritionists. going without break
fast is bad start for the day. It's
been found that workers who skip
breakfast get less done in the first
working hour than those who tuck
away a good meal before work. AS
the morning goes on, the hungry
ones grow less efficient. After lunch
they do better; then they slow up
again.
What happens to these workers
happens to homemakers, too, and to
everyone else. It's especially true
for children. A child who eats a
good breakfast has a better chance
to do we'll with studies and games. -
If breakfast is a problem meal,
don't give up. Try to solve it, the
nutritionistS advise.
