Yank Veteran Cited
For Coaxing French
To Eat Corn on Cob
BY the Associoted Press

pT INV NSSoSluteo TfeSS
PARIS, Noy. 28.-When Lloyd
H. Cornwall, commander of the
Department of France of the
American Legion. was made a
knight of the French Legion of
Honor the other night, his COM
patriots agreed he deserved rec
ognition for service in two wars
and efforts to better Franco
American relations.
But Mr.. Cornwall holds high
place in the esteem of Americans
in Paris for another reason. He
introduced corn on the cob here.
Mr.. Cornwall has not yet re-
ceived his official citation for the
Legion of Honor. But he gather
ed from the presentation speech
by Andre Mutter, French min
lister of war veterans, that the
sweet corn was among the rea-
sons he received the distinction.
Back in the 192Os, when Mr..
Cornwall brought his first crops
to the city, only a few restau-
rants were interested. Like most
Europeans, the French thought
corn (maize, they call it, was
only for livestock.
Crowds Are Amused.
One restaurant catering to
American tourists tried it on the
menu. This was Sans" near
the Opera. Crowds of amused
French used to gather on the
sidewalk to gaze through the
window at the spectacle of
Americans chomping away at
corn on the cob.
Slowly over the years, the mar
ket expanded. Mr.. Cornwall now
sells 5000 to 5000 ears a day
during the season which, though
Midwesterners may not believe it,
is in September.
Mr.. Cornwall'S home until 1914
was in Gardiner, Greg. He moved
down to California and enlisted
in a volunteer ambulance corps
to serve in France before the
United States entered World
War I.
When the war ended, he
worked with missionary group
in rural areas, married a French
girl and decided to remain in
France. Striking out on his own,
he determined to try to raise
sweet corn and leased farm near
Paris. part of the land owned by
the city. The authority who gave
him the lease approved him as
tenant because he had seen
American soldiers eating corn on
the cob during the war and
thought it might be interesting
to see it grown.
Repeated SetbackS.
Mr.. Cornwall had repeated re-
buffS.
Restaurants were uncertain as
customers. so Mr.. Cornwall
turned to shops. The Italian
grocerS were the only ones in
terested at first and even they
demanded cooking instructions
to pass on to prospective buyers.
AS the American colony and
the numbers of tourists in
creased yearly, Mr.. Cornwell
found he could take his crops
to Paris central food market,
Les Halles, and dispose of it to
both restaurants and grocers.
To Mr.. Cornwall. growing and
promoting sweet corn has been
a serious business. His first
crops were meager because the
weather was too cold and wet.
He could get corn to market
in mid-August. Mr.. Cornwall ex-
plains. but that's in the middle
OF the big vacation month here,
when everybody leaves"
so I try to hold it back until
the first of September" he said.
Il could get it out as early as
July by planting under glass
and then transplanting when it
gets warm enough. But planting
is better.
Anyway. by the first of Oc-
tober, it's all finished"

Of Stricter medical standards.
Many drivers who received

No Corpus Deficit, No Case;
And That Applies to Fish, Too

A case involving six long de-
ceased fish was thrown out of
Municipal Court yesterday.
The tale began last April %,
when six bass died after they
were caught in St. Msrys County,
Md, by James o. Mattingly, of
Palmer, Md.
A Maryland statute makes it
illegal to keep bass If they weigh
over 10 pounds each.
A recently enacted Federal
statute makes it illegal to trans
port illegal sized fish into the
District.
Last summer, Federal agent
said he made a buy" of six
bass from William Diggs, a sea
food store manager, who lives
in the 1000 block of Alabama
avenue Sc.
The agent traced the fish b; TX
to Mattingly. Mattingly, how
ever. had been found not guilty
by a st. Marys trial magistrate,
who never saw the fish but who
found them to be of legal pro-
portions.
The United States Attorneys S
Office decided, however, that the
fish were over Is pounds end
that Mattingly had brought them
to Washington illegally and had
sold them to Diggs.
Mattingly and Diggs appeared
before Judge John j. Malloy yes
terday afternoon.
Where are the fish?" asked
Judge Malloy.
"Oh, we have the fish in cold
storage" replied Assistant U. S.
