MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY, JULY 12. 1940. PAGE ELEVEN German Invasion of Ireland Would Complicate Problem Of Food Supply for Britain Br DeWitt MscK.nsi. Nari invasion of Ireland a possibility, especially In view of Eire's rigid neutrality and insistence that England keep hands off would immediately increase the threat against Britain'! food supplies. It needs only half an eye to see what this might mean whenequal,y obviou, Mt must we stop to think that normally she imports over 80 percent of her breadstuffs and fruits; 50 percent of her meat, eggs and dairy products, and a third of her fish and vegetables. German occupation of contin ental countries has cut Britain ' off from some of her chief and nearest markets, notably Hol land and Denmark. This has greatly increased the distances over which supplies must be transported by water, in face of the submarine and air menace. Crisis Faced Grim warning about the food situation was given the nation yesterday by Minister of Agri culture Hudson. Speaking in commons he said the country was facing a crisis immeas urably more serious than at the beginning of the World war, and declared food production must be increased next year lest millions go hungry. -The little Welsh Napoleon, former Premier Lloyd George, added an exclamation point to this when in supporting plans for growing more foodstuffs he cried: "If something is not done we may perish!" "L. G.", world war premier, knows whereof he speaks. His snug little island is terribly vul nerable in the matter of food. I was in England when the k a 1 s e r's submarines almost cleaned out John Bull's cup board. Britain all but lost the war because of this. German possession of the en tire continental coast-line along the English channel and North ea already has enabled the nazis to strike heavily at ship ping to Britain's south and east coast ports including mighty London upon which the coun try ordinarily depends for the bulk of its supplies. Shipping Losses Heavy Indeed Berlin yesterday claimed that British shipping is being sunk at a rate exceeding World war losses during the un restricted submarine campaign which almost brought England to her knees. The British have acknowledged shipping losses close to 1,000,000 tons. Their total in the last war was about 8,000,000. So far as ships are concerned, the British could stand it to lose a lot more than they have already. They had some 18,000,- 000 tons of merchant shipping when the war broke out. They took over many of Norway's 4,800,000 tons when the nazis invaded that country, some of Holland's 3,000,000 tons, and some of the French. In addi t'on England has bought vessels from neutrals. Actually, Britain probably has many more ships than when the war started. However, her trouble is to get them safely home with the bacon. The ser ious aspect of the situation rests In the loss of supplies more than in the loss of the vesels themselves. While London has been silent on the matter, it seems obvious that the British must have been forced to divert a great deal of merchant traffic to west coast ports opposite Ireland principally Liverpool, Cardiff. Bristol and Glasgow. It seems have created a congestion on the west coast which would be meat for German bombing planes and submarines if they could get at the ships in those waters handily. Occupation Difficult Occupation of Ireland would bring the Germans bang up against this vital shipping, and raise a fresh problem for the British which would be extreme ly serious. Such an occupation. however, would be very diffi cult of achievement. Transportation of troops by water to the rugged west coast of Ireland, through mine fields and against the opposition of the British navy and air-force, would represent a vast under taking. Landing of parachute troops or transport airplanes would meet a hot reception at the hands of the fighting Irish. However, the Germans have pulled off some remarkable coups in this war, and the pos sibility of an attempt to invade the Emerald isle certainly is strong enough to cause both the Irish and the English much anxiety, STUFFED HAMBURGERS p HIGH EXPLOSIVE EOS DEFENSE Or AMERICA Seattle, July 12. VP) Whole oceans full of whale-food may be turned into high explosives to aid the army and navy in de fending the United States, if the federal government accepts re sults of a University of Wash ington zoologist's researches, made public today. Prof. Trevor Kincaid an nounced he had perfected a pro cess for obtaining glycerin, ba sic component of nitroglycerin, from the teeming sea animals called plankton. They look like microscopic shrimp and are a principal ar ticle of diet for whales. Approx imately 10 per cent of the dried weight of plankton is glycerin. Whale oil provides much of the glycerin used In manufac turing high exp'osi-es, Kincaid said, but he predicted extinc tion of whales unless the rest of the world adopts the whaling conservation methods followed by Uncle Sam. Kincaid'3 process eliminates the whale from the national de fense picture. Whales store the glycerin from plankton in their blubber. Kincaid goes direct to the barely visible plankton, and stores their glycerin in tanks ready for whatever ammunition emergency might arise. "THE "burgerls one of America's best-liked meats, if one may believe in signs along highways and main streets. Hamburgers are popular for eating out; they are loudly cheered at family and informal party dinners. Although inexpensive and easily made, Filled Hamburgers may grace the proudest table without apology. Two layers of ground meat flanking a layer of stuffing give the hamburgers a sandwich-like appearance. The attractive round shapes are achieved by baking the meat in individual custard cups. The special flavor of these Filled Hamburgers is due to the poultry seasoning in the stuffing mixture, although this ingredient may be omitted if desired and some herb be substituted for it. STUFFED HAMBURGERS 2 pounds hamburger 1 teaspoon salt K teaspoon pepper 1 egg Mix thoroughly. Press meat mixture to a depth of 1 inch in greased custard cups. Tat in a layer of stuffing. Cover with remaining meat mixture. Set custard cups in pan of warm watei and bake in moderate oven (350'F.j 45 minutes. Yield: 8 servings. STUFFING 2 cups fine dry bread crumbs 2 tablespoons minced onion t cup melted fat 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons hot water Mix together in order given, and blend well.
