"What' are you going to do to help us?" Morris L. Cooke, chairman of the president's committee, patiently has replied : "We did not come out here to make speeches.

Wallace aatd In an adrtreu prepared for de livery at the Great Lakes Exposition today, "Drought did not bring scar city Into the average American home In 1034. nor will It In 1936." "The record shows." he continued, "that the real period of scarcity was In 1P33. It was then, when the sur pluses were greatest, that the bread lines were longest. It was then that the farmers were losing their farms that Industry was prostrate and fear and hunger were rampant. It was when fanners were burning corn In stead of coal that the city people were most hungry, "The record shows that every year since 1033, farmers have been abla to buy more things, city people have been able to sell more, business has been better and more people have gone baric to work. "In spite of two of the greatest droughts on record, we are headed this year for a rnsh farm Income nearly 80 per cent above 1033. with more activity In factories, In mines and on railroads, which once again are carrying freight Into the farm country as well as out of It." "Kvcryone knows that business ac tivity Is sensationally higher than In 1P33." he said. "Let It be Included j In the record that iO per cent of' this increased business activity has been due to higher farm prices and Income, and that approximately 40 per cent of our re-employment since 1033 traces to the same cause."

IIIIIIHP i ii in miii Mill urn mi t l.'j Everyday Cooking Miracles BY VIRGINIA FRANCIS tHricMr Btf9tnt ZUttttt Ckry Initltmts Whenever you want i new frock or bonnet, don't you usually make your approach by serving a deli ciously broiled steak? And did you ever know the method to fail? Ver ily, steaks have charms to soothe a savage appetite -and smooth the way for you to get what you want, tool. $ KamH4i&4iirmin ma mam i Hot from the smokeless electric broiler a delicioust thick steak with inserts of Roquefort cheese Steaks are usually ultra - special treats of that fact there's no ques tion. And there's no question, eith er, that the new method discovered for broiling these steaks is still more apt to gain your praises. But nrit you'll be wanting to be gin with a good quality steak a club. T-bone, porterhouse, or air loin. You will look for white fat, rather than yellow, as it indicates I better grade animal. Your other criteria will be; a liberal deposit of fat throughout the lean, either as little spots or as a delicate net work; and a bright cherry red color of the fleih when the steak is cut. After you ve selected this ace among steaks, you will want to cook It in the smokeless broiler pan of your electric range. By doing so, you wilt be saved the agony of smoking, spattering arid burning three ordinary, taken-for-granted aspects of steak brollery. Your steak simply cannot burn when it la broiled the "miracle" way. Smokeless Broiling As the stesk browns under the cherry-red coils of the electric broiler, the fat which cooks out . (and which ordinarily spatters and burns) ia caught in the broiler pan ' and held under cover. The fat is so far away from the broiler that it tiasn t a chance to smoke and north-central grazing area until 10B0. j From an analysis of water level records for the Oreat Lakes, since 1837, the Smithsonian concluded that the drought area now "Is near the bottom of what appears to bo a 40 year precipitation cycle In some way associated with cycllo variations In the radiation output of the suu." Dr. Charles a, Abbott, Institution secretary, declared that his cycle hy pothesis, announced three years o?o. "gives no support to pessimists wbo predict that the great drought nr.v wlU be converted Into a permanent desert." He said there was "every reason to believe the depths of the present drought will be succeeded, at the moat i few years henco, by peaks of precipitation." If the cycle continues true to form, he said, the low point should be reached sometime between 1038-'4O, followed by "a rapid up swing." Under the Abbot theory tempera ture and precipitations variations at any particular place have a tendency to repeat themselves every as years, and the most extreme variations re peat at 40 year Intervals. i .os anoei.es, auk. m. iapj Another Mexican featherweight was numbered today among the vlrllins of Henry Armstrong, Bt.

But before the luscious red meat is committed to the safe-keeping of this smokeless broiler pan, you will want to add another trick to your culinary magician's bag. And here it is: cut eight to ten gashes in the steak; make them deep but do not cut all the way through. Pull the gash open like a pocket, and fill with this is the secret spoonfuls of Roquefort cheese I Use a spoon to put the cheese in, allowing some cheese to remain above the sur face of the steak. One small pack age of Roquefort cheese will suf fice for an ordinary steak. Ameri can cheese may also be used, if you prefer.
