In Washington lly Herbert I'lmnim'r WASHINGTON The story of the NRA's national labor board bids fair to bo set down us ono of the most Interesting chapters in the history of tho "now deal." When first set up It Inspired the nwo of everyone. The title alone was sufficient for that. Headed by Senator Wagnor of New York an export on questions affect ing labor and Its difficulties, tho board generally woo roKiirded as one of tho most powerful units operating under tho national recovery act. ror A whtla it was. Hard-boiled Industrialists listened with rcscct to Its dictates. The lricetlnRS of the board, held in what ever space was available at tho time In the huge department of commerce building, were watehed with both oagcrnees and anxiety. No Krai Authority Then came the awakening It developed tliut the board had no real authority behind It. What power It possessed was merely of tle persuasive tyie. Theoretically. It ap- )carcd to be one ol tile greawai gjiu Ol'K AltMY AIR FORCK Permanent solution of the airmail tangle will apparently be left for the next congress. Considering the complexity of tho situation the charges arising from the old regime and tho accidents common to tho new one this is just as well, for the whole affair needs more study and discussion than the present congress can give it. But there is another angle to the thing which ought not to he postponed too long. That is the little matter of find ing out just what, if anything, is wrong with our army air service. Now that the first heat of passion engendered by cancellation of the mail contracts has cooled a little, it is easy labor had made in history, in pmc- tn pi t.linf: ton mnrh was said about the failure Ol the army I ttco It was another story. flyers. They had to start in, cold, on a new and rather be-' wildering job, their machines quite naturally lacked the equipment the mail planes had, and the weather that greeted them was the worst in years. When all that has been said, however, It remains pretty clear that tho army air corps did less well than the nation had a right to expect. Needless to say. this was not due to any failure of ncrvo on the part of the flyers themselvcB they added new records of heroism to tho history of tho air corps- It seems rather to have been duo to some defect In training and equipment of tho corps as a whole. Now we don't maintain an army air corps as a spectacular and InHplrlng sideshow, lit Is an Integral part of our national defense; if It Isn't as strong as It should be, our national defense Is weak at a vital point. A dispatch from Europo tho other day pointed out that It Is the existence of the Russian air force which has robabIy prevented war between Russia and Japan. Tile Russian air force Is about the strongest on earth, right now: approximately 700 flRlulng plnncs are understood to lie concentrated In the Far East, within striking distance of Jupan, and It Is said that their prescnoe has boen the principal deterrent against a Japanese offensive In that territory. That gives you an Idea of "the lmortanco of the air corps. The efficiency of our air force has been called In question by tho airmail episode. It Is encouraging to know that a committee Is preparing to In vestigate the matter thoroughly, so tfiat the next Congress can tako what ever action may be needed.

And why not? ' A more mivory, tender, delicate dish than a well, browned, tastily seasoned, temptingly served pork chop with its accompanying rich hued gravy and correct garnish, it would in-' deed be difficult to imagine. Garnish! There lies the secret. Hapldly we are learning that a fruit garnish adds to both the eye and appetite appeal of all kinds of meats not to mention the fact that it provides an excellent means of including u greater variety of healthful fruits on our menus. . To no meat dish is the fruit garnish a more welcome addition than to pork chops, and, to my way of thinking, no pork chops can quite equal: , Pork "Chops with Cinnamon Apples. For this dish one seiocts plump, thick rib chops. Trim them neatly, dust with Hour and brawn them carefully in their own fat. This may be done cither in a skillet over the fire or in tho oven. Pork require slow cooking; so it will bo well to keep tho heat moderate. Season with pepper, salt and pap vilta whiloVooklng and add n very little water to tho pan after the meat has become browned. Meanwhile par large, tart, flrm fleshed apples, remove tho cores, slice thickly crosswise, and drop into lemon flavored water to keep from darkening, while making a syrup In the proportion of 1 cup granulated sugar to yt cup of water. Alter five minutes cooking add a tablespoon of red cinnamon candies or drops, and simmer until the syrup is quite rosy. Now wipe the apple rings and drop thera a few at a time Into the syrup to cook very slowly. When tender and quite red lift them out. In the cenler of each apple ring place a stuffed olive, or a bit of parsley. When the chops are finished, top each one with a ring of apple, serve on n warm platter and garnish with cress or parsley. Gravy for this dish is especially piquant if to the liquid In the pan in which the chops were cooked is added the remainder of tho syrup from the apples, with a little more water as required, and a tablespoon of sharp vinegar. Thicken slightly with a tablespoon of flour mixed to a paste with a very little water. Cook till clear, add seasoning if necessarj . then train Into a snuceboat.
