CLEVELAND, Aug. 19. -Secretary
of Agriculture Henry A. 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."

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.

bespattered broiler and smoke
filled kitchen.
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.
Now, here's the way to broil this
Broiled Steak Roquefort a la the
miracle electric broiler. Grease
rack and arrange steak on it. Turn
the oven switch to Broil. Set Tem
perature Control beyond Very Hot.
When the unit Is a glowing cherry
red, place the smokeless broiler pan
under the broiling unit. Broil a
m - 2 Inch thick steak (or one
weighing 2 to 3 pounds) according
to the following time:
Degrees of Done- Total Broiling
nets Time
Rare 15 minutes
Medium well
done 16V20 minutes
Well done 30 minutes.
Leave oven door slightly ajar
while broiling the steak. Turn
steak at five-minute Intervals dur
