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.

There are twenty-five and they are

The harps furnish tlic music for a

POIiK chops have stepped up
wonderfully wllhln the past few
years. 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.
