u. S. RAIDS ISLE SOUTH OF
PARAMUSHIRO In PACIFIC

Force Liberators have participated
in these raids, flying through what
is known as the worst weather in
the world.
One plane was lost in the latest
North Pacific raid on Onekotan.
Air losses generally have been re-
markably light throughout the
Pacific. AS an example of plane
deficiencies being suffered by the
Japanese, American fighters have
been used as bombers in the most
recent air attacks on Rabaul.
Fighters also have played a
bomber's role over the Marshalls,
though this is not general prac-
tice.
However, it is typical of the
resourcefulness which makes the
best possible use of every weapon,
often adapting new uses. Thus the
Allies have used fighters as
bombers, heavy bombers for low
level .strafing work, and turned
battleships into artillery against
land targets.

PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii, Mar.
81 - Paramushiro and Shumishu,
little more than 1000 miles from
Tokyo, have been principal Allied
targets in the North Pacific until
this weekend. Now, however,
Onekotan Island has been added
to the list.
Onekotan is a volcanic island
about 30 miles south of Para

What interests Pacific air COM

EGGS IN AIR-The scheme for
quickly restoring Europe's poultry
focks after the war by flying baby
chicks from the U. S.-originally
broached last Fall-has passed from
the discussion to the experimental

dozen eggs are now in an incubator

The freshly-laid eggs were put
aboard a transport in Washington
by DR.. Morley A. Judd, professor of
poultry husbandry at the University.
The 5,200-mile round trip was equi-
valent to the air distance to a Bal
kan country. A close check was
kept on changing barometric condi-
tons and when the eggs hatch, if
they do, DR.. Judd will compare the
chicks with an equal number hatch

1t seems to US that the War
and Navy Departments would do
better to attend strictly to the
business of fighting and not at
tempt to run the whole country.
They've got a big enough job on
their hands to lick Hitler and the
Japs without taking on additional
worries and responsibilities
1t seems to us that the War

ford to divert it's energies 1T this

our military strategy in the La

MEAT COOKING HELPS
By the
HOMEMAKING SPECIALISTS
General Electric Consumers Institute

General Electric Consumers Institute
In a previous column we covered
three principal ways of making the
weekly supply of rationed meat go far
ther by serving meat-stretching recipes,
meat alternate dishes, and by the use
of variety meats.
1t helps also to stretch ration points
by buying cheaper cuts of meat which
cost fewer points per pound, but
which require additional care or
longer cooking.
Then, when the meat quota has van
ished, and Saturday has not, as yet,
rolled around, there are the (usually)
ever present fowl and fish to fall back
on.
Here are general cooking helps to
ease the meat situation at your fam
lily table.
K The favor of Dreaded meats is
much improved if bread crumbs are
mixed with salt, pepper, and season
ings such as celery salt, onion salt,
sage. marjoram, basil, or savory.
X Meats not refrigerated properly
lose their nutritive value. Proteins de-
teriorate and there is a loss of miner
ais as we'll.
X Unwrap meats when they come
from the butcher, wipe them with a
damp cloth, and, for proper storage
in refrigerators which have meat
keeping compartment, lay the meat on
the rack of the compartment and cover
the top with piece of waxed paper.
X For proper storage of meats in a
refrigerator where there is no meat
keeping compartment, place meat on a
plate, cover the top with waxed paper,
and place in the coldest section of the
refrigerator box.
K To tenderize the less tender cuts
of meat or fowl, add little vinegar
to them while cooking.
X Also, if vinegar is added to the
water in which sea food is steamed,
it will help make flesh of the fish
more tender.
Mo prevent fish odors beir.3 -
off during baking or broili g, squeeze
lemon juice on both sides of the fish,
let it stand in the refrigerator for an
hour or longer, then cook.
X Buy beef liver, instead of the
more expensive calves liver, soak it in
small amount of milk for about an
hour, and it will be tender liver you
will be proud to serve.
X Lemon enhances the favor of
lamb. Rub it over lamb before roast
ing and have pleasant surprise at the
difference in taste.
X Lamb will never have a strong
taste if you are sure your butcher re.
moves all of the skin.
X Large roastS are more economical

than smaller ones. Smaller roast (

than large ones, providing fewer serv-
ings per pound. Purchase large roasts;

Understanding dishes.
"A low, constant temperature is
kindest to roasts (275 degrees F. to
325 degrees F.), giving you more serv-
ings per pound and less waste fat in
the bottom of the pan.
X Soaring shrinks meats, too. To save
meat shrinkage and still get golden
brown surface on your roasts, let a
low, constant temperature and longer
cooking do both.

tients who find they have hay fever
for the first time this year. But ii
also works on cases of long stand
ing, although more slowly.
Still more re-enforcementS come to
the aid of hay fever victims this year.
Chemists of Lederle Laboratories
have announced a simplified pollen
testing preparation.
While ragweed and goldenrod
cause hay fever in many sufferers,
other plant and weed pollens can
also produce the allergy.
To be truly sure just what plant
causes their hay fever, some victims
have to take scores of so-called
patch" tests to find out just what
pollen affects them. With the new
Lederle development the number of
such tests has been reduced to a
maximum of four.
Depending on whether the hay
fever victims live east or west of the
Mississippi River, doctors can apply
different varieties of the new dag
nostic method and find out the weed
that causes the trouble. The method
works for 80 per cent of all patients.
Finally. Professor Harry Holmes,

Professor Holmes next tried the

that ne could aid cases of hay fever.
At the same time he could rid them
