Roasting Meat by Low
Temperature Is Favored

A saving of as much as one-third
in the amount of meat needed to
feed given number of men may
be effected through low-temperature
roasting, the war department an
nounced in making public the results
of tests recently completed by
the office of the quartermaster gen.
eral.
In addition, low cooking tempera-
y lures cause the meats to retain their
vitamins, juices and natural flavors
more completely than cooking at
higher temperatures, and more
even cooking of roasts is assured,
according to the quarternaster
corps menu planning section, sub
sistence division, which conducted
the tests. This last-named factor is
particularly important in roasting OF
pork, it was pointed out.
Evenly-cooked roasts are easier
to slice, the tests showed, and the
fats which are cooked out are not
burned, thus remaining in good con-
dition for use in the preparation OF
other foods. Utensils are easier to
clean after low-temperature cook
ing, since the juices which cook out
do not burn hard to the pots and
pans.
Some of the other benefits which
the housewife can enjoy from the
quartermaster recommended meth
cd of preparing her roasts of beef,
pork or lamb, as proven by actual
tests, are cleaner. ovens, since the
fat does not pop" out as much;
less fuel required; less heat given
off by the range, making for a cooler
kitchen and less evaporation OF
watery parts of the pan drippings,
thus retaining the vitamins and fla
vor, the department said.

Soybean HAY

Soybean hay, when properly ham,
died, compares favorably with al
falfa in total protein and mineral
content, according to H. j. Snider,
assistant chief, soil experiment
fields, University of Illinois college
of agriculture. Averages of large
number of tests showed that ton
of dry soybean hay contained 272
pounds of protein and GA pounds OF
essential minerals. A ton of dry
alfalfa hay contained 344 pounds of
protein and IA pounds of essential
minerals. These averages are for
hay from various parts of Illinois.
The soybeans were cut for hay when
the leaves were still green and the
pods well filed" Snider reported.

WAX SAVES STOCKINGS

The old European custom of rub
bling wax on stocking heels and toes
is worth reviving in wartime America
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
suggests. Stocking feet which have
been waxed will wear four times as
long as those which have not been
treated according to results of expert
ments in the textile laboratories of
the Department.
Simplest and most effective of the
methods tried for applying wax was
merely to rub piece of ordinary
candle or paraffin on keel and toe
areas of the stockings. Wax treated
samples of cotton hose which were
tested for durability on an abrasion
machine withstood about four times
as many wear cycles as untreated
ones.
Waxed samples were washed and
rinsed thoroughly to find out how Of
ten waxing need be repeated to pro-
long wear BY weight determinations
it was found that samples laundered
four times in mild suds still retained
enough wax to give about twice as
muck wear as comparable ones that
had not been waxed
Only cotton stockings were used
in these experiments by the Bureaus
of Human Nutrition and Home Eco
Monies. 1t is believed, however, that
the toe and heel waxing method
would add similarly to the durability
of wool or rayon hose, and would be
as effective on mems socks as on wo-
mems stockings.

New Odorless Liquid
Is Insect Repellent

There is comfort in the postwar
prospect of a new insect repellent
- successor to citronella - which
the army has found far more effec-
tive than previous "fiy dopes." The
new repellent is described as a
clear, nearly odorless liquid that for
some unknown reason is highly Of
fensive to mosquitoes, flies, feas,
gnats, sandfiies and chiggers. It is
partially effective against ticks. An
added advantage is that 1t is not
messy to use.
Instructions for application recon-
mend that clothing be sprayed with
two or three ounces of the liquid
every five days. Garments may be
sprayed while worn, although the
eyes and mouth should be covered
to avoid discomfort from a singing
sensation. When applied to the skin,
the repellent gives protection for one
to six hours.
The material, which is now on al
location, is not new to industrial
chemistry but now finds new use.
1t is derived from a compound
which helped make the synthetic
resin for enamels, used on refrig-
orators. Military demand for the
repellent, now supplied to the army
at the rate of many thousands of
gallons monthly, is a major cause
for the scarcity Of synthetic resin
enamels.

In a normal year, approximately
five million gallons of traffic mark
ing paint are used on this country's
roads and streets. Such paints are
applied by states, counties, cities
and towns. The traffic requirements
of some states alone will run as high
as one hundred thousand gallons an
nually, says this estimate. It is
commented that only formulas char
acterized by extreme toughness of
film and outstanding weathering
properties have any chance of sur
vival in meeting the requirements
for road marking.

sives and other war products faced shutdowns for lack Of corn.
 A tightening feed supply threat ened to hinder production plans of livestock and poultry raisers.
 VITA set about urging farmefs to market corn in farm storage. The corn was there, officials said. Farmers either have been to busy or been waiting for price increase to send 1t to market. The Office of Price Administration said there would be no price increase.
 A WFA survey disclosed that food stocks in cold storage were at the lowest point of the war for this time of year. Directly aopposNe from the situation last year, plenty of empty space is available in pub lie warehouses for food.
 Much below average were stocks of meat, eggs, poultry, fish, butter and cheese.
 Elsewhere on the food front. the OPA announced today that fresh Atlantic-caught salmon will cost about Is cents a pound less than last year when they begin reach ing retail markets late this month.
 OPA said that effective June 21 it was bringing retail sales of the Salmon under price control for the first time. The agency also reduced retail ceiling prices for frozen At lantic salmon by one cent.

pay annually the amount of the Current service cost.
 On the Mayors figures for the year 1946 the employees contributions will net about $100, ,0O0; a proper pay ment of current service cost by the City would be $500, GOO; and the cost of paying pensions to existing pen sioners is another $180,000, making a total pension cost for the year Oeaving out past service cost of $580, ,000. Under the bill, of this amount 5000 will come from the employees, $500, 900 will come from the City, and the $16O,OOO won't come from anybody. This means that the city has failed to the extent of $180,0 900 to make the necessary appropriation, even if we ignore the past service cost, and amount is taken from the city's payment.
 Tt does not seem fair to me to make the city employees tighten their belts to the extent of the funds deducted from their pay unless the taxpayers are also forced to tighten their belts to provide the fund ac- tlarially necessary to take care of the current service cost. It seems to me that as far as political cour- age is concerned, it takes just as much political courage to make the taxpayers do their part in provid- ing a sound pension system as 1t does to make the city employees do their part.
 "As a practical way of solving the problem. would suggest an amend ment of the bill that passed the legislature. My previous letter did not advocate it's veto. I said it should be vetoed or amended. I think the preferable thing would be to have it amended and that amendment could be effective before January l. 1946, by making use of the process that I will outline.
 The Waterbury charter provides for it's amendment by vote of the Waterbury electors. I would rec ommend that the governor be urged to approve the bill that passed the legislature providing the board of aldermen took the necessary steps to submit. for approval or rejection of the Waterbury voters at the l945 city election, an amendment to the Pension Bill, making it manda- tory that each year the city appro- priate and pay to the pension fund the current service cost" of pen- sions in addition to the cash amount necessary to take care of pensions for which no fund has been accum- ulated, such as the pensions that will be payable during the year 1945. If this suggestion is adopted it means that the voters can thus de- eide whether they want to have a pay as you go pension system or not. If they do not want one, that Is the end of it. If they do, we will have a system that is far sounder than the present one.
 The principal worry of the city administration is that it won't get the employees contributions between now and the 1947 session of the general assembly. If my suggestion is followed, it will get those con- tributions in any event.
 Very truly yours.
 "J. WARREN UPSON."

their payment.
 "The pension bill passed by the legislature in fact reduces the wages of the city employees by taking away these benefits. Each employe is given two alternatives: either to have no pension benefits at all, in which event he gets his full salary, or to pay toward the cost of the pension benefits provided in the Act by making a contribution out Of his salary. The requirement. of con- tribution by the employe would ap- pear to be sound from the stand point of the city.
 '"The report of the Commission and the statement made by the Mayor are both based upon the as- sumption that the cost of pension benefits can be definitely esti- mated for each employe for each year that he works. Of this cost, part must be contributed by the employe under the pension bill. The balance must come from the City. If fireman was employed on Janu- ary l, 1946, the deductions from his salary's plus contribution by City of the current service cost" for each year that he continued as city employe, would result on his retire ment date in 8 fund sufficient to pay his pension. The principal diff ference between my view of the mat ter and Mayor Monagan's is whether or not the City should be forced to

= Waterbury students, in private, perochial. and public schools, over i scribed their quota in the Seventh
 War Loan drive by $74565, John G
 Gilmartin, assistant superintendent
 cf schools, announced this morn- i ing. The students turned in $127,- | S41 to the War Finance committee I The Treasury-assigned quota for schools in this area was $52,776. With only IS more days remain Hng before the close of the drive on June 90, war industries here were
 pushing ahead to meet quotas though sales were not being totaled
 as rapidly as during the first weeks of the drive, chairman of bond
 committees at ali factories expressed
 confidence that their employees would put the drive over the top
 David c. Moreland, bond chair man at the Scovill Manufacturing
 O.. said that $200,000 worth of
 Series E bonds much be purchased
 by employees before the Scovill quota of more than million dollars is reached. Feeling certain that ScoTll's would go over the top as 1t has in all previous bond drives, A6r. Moreland pointed to the fact that Scovill workers purchased eS00, 900 the week before the Christ mas holiday during the Sixth War Loan, and he felt sure employees could again repeat the perform ni1ce.
 Chase Brass and Copper Go. em- paoyes up to June II purchased e667 ,28S.5 in Series E bonds to- ward their quota Of $868, ,066.2 Rod- uey Chase reported.
 The Bristol Co. which is believed to be the first industry to meet its quota in this area is still buying Series E bonds to boost the Seventh War Loan for the Waterbury area. Total sales now amount to sl56 GOO. The Bristol quota of $148,OO0 was reached on May 18. Eric G. Gabriel son is chairman of the employees war Bond service committee.
 William V. Hawkes., chairman of the payroll division for the city, will speak at seven rallies in va rious departments of the U. s. Rub- per Co. on Monday when it is hoped the employees there will make the remaining 25 per cent of their quota. Bristol employees have al- ready reached 75 per cent of their quota. and are now far ahead of national returns, which are estim- eted to be 57 per cent. Edward e4corath, head of employe rela- non9, reported the rallies would be held between p. m. and 7:30 D. m.
