PARIS (UP) Chicken, water and cigarette are all that It takes to make the. average American satisfied with the meal he gets In Paris, And If he has a fresh vegotable salad and vanilla Ice cream he won't caro so much about the size of the bill. According to a poll of leading oheis and mattres d hotels, who havo served kings and queens as well aa tourists, the averago American menu In Prance will read like this nine times out of ten: Dry Martini Cocktail Hors d'Oeuvres Grilled Chicken Vegetable Salad Ice Cream or Crepes Suzette Coffee Ferdinand, of the Cafe de la Palx, declares first of all that Americans prefer water above all other liquids. There are few restaurant or hotel men who do not support him In this statement. Americans Just won't or der wine unless It's for the purpose of "showing off" (this, of course. does not refer to the seasoned trav eler). But they will drink cocktills four or five of them before their Paris dinner and then settle down to heavy water drinking with the meal. As for their chicken complex, It has nearly everyone fooled Evory American thinks that every othei 'courses. American orders steak when he dines abroad. As a matter of fact, there are fewer steaks sorved during the tourist season than at any other time of the year. La Rue, one of the de luxe eating places In Paris, has decided that Americans eat too many steaka at nome. When they get away they want something different so It' chicken. Chlckon, French style, to be sure. For when Americans come to Paris they want to eat as Parlsbns eat at least once before they start looking for sandwich shops: rouse quently, they usually point gingerly to "hors d'oeuvrcs"; ask the waiter to suggest something for a main dish; and then pounce on "crepes suzette" for dessert. ' The Vegetable sslad Is alwaya pres ent. La Rue, Cafe de la Palx and the ultz all agree on that. Chefs no long er mind mixing strango dressings wnicn may combine mayonnaise and whipped cream an unthinkable gas tronomic atrocity In the eyes of the Frenchman. But there Is ons gastronomic crime which no maltre d'hotel can forgive smoking during a meal. Amerlc-'.m may order water Instead of wine un til doomsday and stall not offend the French as much as they do bv taklnir Just one puff of a cigarette between CROWDS GREETED AIRMAIL CARRIERS ON FLIGHT NORTH No Cai-farr, (iris Divorce BOSTON (UP) Mrs. Oermalne L.

Franklin Would Be Surprised By Present Government, Says Hoover In Dedication Speech PHILADELPHIA, May 21 (UP) Herbert Hoover said tonight that present-day governmental practices would be "both surprising and dis appointing" to Benjamin Franklin If tho revolutionary sage were alive now The former president, speaking at NEW DEALERS HAIL VICTORY OF HESS dedication of the Franklin Instl tute's new building, said Franklin was a "Republican." an "Individual 1st,' and "should bo the patron saint of that altogether characteris tic American, the self-made man." Franklin's ideals of thrift and in dustry, Mr. Hoover said, supplied "a safer pattern for the republic than that of those who. promising an Utopia of comfort, demand ilso an end to liberty.1 Mr. Hoover professed to be em barrassed by the frequency with which he found In Franklin's utter ances remarks pertinent to modern politics. He seemed opposed to spending," Mr Hoover said. "But this Is not political meeting, and I do not want to give even a hint of part isanship. . . . Ben always referred to himself as a Republican, but of course I cannot pursue this." But Franklin "did , advise on the cure of economic depressions," Mr. Hoover continued. "He asserted that 'We may make these times, bettor if we bestir ourselves and produce.' He knew none of the joys of planned economy." He also had "defeatist ideas about extremes In public works." Mr. Hoo ver said, "and at one time observed. It Is easier to build two chimneys than to keep one In fuel." Franklin believed debts were "the rood of sorrow, a vice more vicious than lies, and In general the de stroyers' of liberty," but, Mr. Hoover added, "I believe it better not to pursue those themes further." Mr. Hoover said ho found Frank lin, on tho mat tor of money, "as serting that 'the standard once fixed should ever be unvarlable since iny alteration would bo followed by : great confusion and detriment to tho state'." He was, tho speaker observed, "naturally unfamiliar with the re cent theory and practice In coin age." On economics Mr. Hoover quoted Franklin as saying "No state or po tentate can settle the prices of all sorts of merchandise. '. ." . Plenty and scarcity must govern that." "As to , agriculture," Mr. Hoover continued, "he said, 'He that kills a breeding sow destroys all her off spring to the thousandth genera tion'." The Franklin Institute, whose new building was being dedicated, b a world-famed Institution founded In 1824 for the advancement of science and promotion of the mechanical arts. It Is located on Benjamin Franklin parkway, Hoover's speech was at a dinner for 750 persons climaxing three-day dedicatory exercises of the building. called the Benjamin Franklin Mem orial. Roland S.

Mrs. Nidorf is very well pleased with her new automatic electric waterheater. There are four in the family and on the new low, off peak, water heating rate of eight mills per KWH the average monthly electric waterheating bill for the last six months was only $1 .38. The last bill, (April billing) was $1 .72. How can any one be other than pleased with the perfect hot water service supplied constantly day and night at exactly the right temperature by these new automatic electric water heaters at such a very small cost. Every woman knows -the amazing convenience of continuous hot water. No argument in its favor is needed today, but some families are putting up with the'inconvenience of inadequate, old fashioned water heating systems because they believe automatic, electric, water heating to be expensive. This may have been true once but is so no longer. The new heaters" are like giant thermos bottles, using less electricity . . . and with the new- very low, off peok, waterheating rote of only eight mills, (45 of one cent a kilowatt-hourl the cost of per fect waterheating service, the electric way, is actually below other, less efficient methods.
