Long-Armed Squid Becomes
More Popular on Menus

MONTERREY, CALIF.-To most
people it's just a wriggly horror,
but the long-armed squid is landing
on more and more domestic dining
room tables.
The j~et-propelled relative to the
lowly clam long has been caught
commercially here for use as bait
and for sale as food to foreign
and local markets. Recently,
though, dealers report nationwide
sales have increased.
One possible reason for the in
creased use is the cheapness, about
IS cents a pound.
Most of the squid caught here are
small, but once in a while fisher
men find a giant in their nets. One
squid measured more than II feet
from tip Of tentacle to tip Of
tentacle.
The squid, frequently confused
with the octopus, has a narrow
body, eight arms and two long
tentacles. The two tentacles,
equipped with suction discs to lock
them together and studded with
swiveled hooks. are used to seize
passing fish for food.
The arms take the food from the
tentacles, draw it up under the body
and there the squid tears the food
apart with its parrot-like beak.
It propels- itself by drawing water
in through openings back Of it's
head. then expelling the water
through a small tube. The tube may
be pointed in different directions.
controlling the direction Of travel.
For eating, the squid may be pre-
pared in a variety Of ways. The
tentacles, arms and body mantle
may be fried or stuffed or broiled.
It also is boiled sometimes for use
in salads.

Two U. S. MINIS Coin
Is Million Dollars
For China Nationals

DENVER, COL The Denver
and Philadelphia minis have been
ordered to coin IS million dollars
worth Of Sun Yat-sen dollars for
the Chinese nationalists, Mrs. Nellie
Tayloe Ross, director Of the United
States mint, has revealed.
News Of the emergency coinage
for the Nationalist was revealed
when some employees of the Den
yer mint were called back from
their annual three-weeks vacation.
Moses E. Smith, superintendent
Of the Denver mint, at first refused
to divulge the nature of the work
for which the men were called
back, because of what he called
"strict secrecy imposed by Wash
ington."
Mrs. Ross disclosed in a tele-
phone interview, however, that the
coinage was for the Nationalist.
She said silver for the coins was
being supplied by the Chinese gov
eminent. Mr.. Smith said the silver
involved had been released by a
transfer order from the treasury.
About three million dollars worth
Of the coins are being made in Den
Yer, he said.
