It is no long-! er necessary to eat tasteless food in oraer to lose pounds. whether she or anvnnp in her family is on a weight losing diet or whether she is cooking for someone on a low sodium medical diet, the homemaker will be glad io near mere are 38 different in gredients which will put flavor into this food withoutharmful ef- lects. The current issue of the Amer ican Medical Association's Jour nal reports that 39 spices may be used in salt-free d ets without raising the salt content appreci ably. This is the first time that authoritative research has actual ly proved that spices are safe for these diets. For some time doc tors and others have recommend, ed the use of spices without offi cial proof to back them up. 'Operation Chop-Chop1 Sends Cooks in Korea Back to School THE LACK of taste in salt free or low sodium diets has been the greatest drawback' to their use. In recent years they have be come popular as reducing diets in addition to treatment for heart ailments and high blood pressure. But it takes an iron will to eat this food by itself three times a day. And it is a constant prob lem to the cook who must try to make these meals more appealing. Recognizing the problem, es pecially as it applied to medicine, Dr. C. A. Elvehiem and C. H. Burns, at the University of Wis consin, made a study of the salt content of spices. After testing 100 commercial samples, representing 41 different spices, they decided that nnlv fwn wprp unfit fnr salt- iTestricted diets. Dried parsley and remaining 38, or all of the other common spices in use today, were declared safe. The word that spices may be used in these diets is especially important to reducers. It is al ready well established that spices are calorie-free. In addition, it has been proven that the dieter will feel more satisfied after a light meal when the food has been properly seasoned.

DIVI SION, -KOREA 'U.R) The opera tors of the Third Division's 126 food factories are going to cooking school. They are learning the latest techniques for the camouflage of spam and the dissolving of the rock-like dehydrated potato. Under operation "chop chop," small groups of mess cooks are being brought to a . classroom where they are given a week of schooling and have an opportunity to gripe.t about somebody else's cooking. EVERYBODY seems to think the whole idea is excellent, a step in the right direction. For the most part, food has been plentiful and of good quality in Korea this win ter. But, as the cooks will testify, they continually receive strongly worded suggestions from their cli entele. The suggestions made during the schooling should be more con structive, according to Warrant Of ficer Donald Smith of Greenwood, R. I., dean of "chop chop." Smith is an enthusiastic booster for army rations, holding that em ployment of certain tactics for re viving the defunct dried egg, plas ter of powdered milk and the arid onion and potato will not only make them palatable but down right tasty. . He knows the cooks are bucking a strictly "show me" attitude and he thinks they can win out if they follow the advice of his professors Master Sergeants Russell Coffman of Washingtonville, N. Y. and John Robingren of Browns Mills, N. J, and Sgt. First Class Carl S. Smith of Point Chicago, Calif. The student cooks enjoy the week of schooling, although at chow time they are inclined to pass on salty insults to the local cook ing staff. Smith said his own cooks were going to the school "as soon as it ii their turn." "You should have been here for the class yesterday;" Smith said, switching the conversation back to more pleasant things. "We had a class on roast duck." - "I graded the work in my tent last night," he chuckled.
