HITLER ATE HIS VEGETABLES, BUT LIKED HIS LIVER Berchtesgaden, Aug. 21 (U.R) Adolf Hitler ate his vegetables every day, like a little man, but he like to nibble on liver too if he thought no one was watching. Blond, buxom Margarete Roe lofs, who was one of several cooks in Hitler's eyrie on Kehl stein mountain, told me about it today while she busily prepared a dish of "spaetzles" for Ameri can G. I.'s. Margarete must really think that Hitler is dead otherwise she wouldn't go around saying things like that, proving that the fuehrer was no honest vegetari an. She paused with a steaming dish and sighed: "Always about this time, the fuehrer and Frau lin Eva Braun had a few sweet dishes the fuehrer loved des serts. "There wasn't much he could eat on account of his stomach," she said. "We always had a med iol dietician in the kitchen. He liked potato dishes and all kinds of soups. Spaetzles were one of his special favorites." She said Hitler used to drink milk, cocoa, or sometimes herb tea. He didn't drink coffee and he did not smoke. After the bomb plot there were always conferences during the day and the fuehrer devel oped an arm tremor that became worse when he was excited. At night the British planes wouldn't let him sleep. "He was almost on a liquid diet at the finish, she said. The cook, who knows only a few words of English, beamed. "Meat? Oh, the fuehrer loved liver!" "Do you mean that Hitler wasn't really the vegetarian that he claimed to be? "That's right," she said. "He liked liver. I know because with my own hands I served it." tion for civilians. Hunters and shooting galleries thus likely will be rationed on the amount of ammunition, but the quantity is expected to be increased. The ammunition picture ap peared much brighter because lead is now the only scarce item involved In the manufacture, WPB said. There is sufficient supply of brass strip, powder, chemicals and other items now, WPB added. WPB previously re leased for sale to civilian users all small arms except 12 guage shotguns and .38 caliber revolv ers. THIEF ASKED TO ILIANS S Washington, Aug. 21 (U.R) The war production board will consider tomorrow relaxing some controls over shotgun and rifle ammunition. The WPB clearance commit tee, however, was not expected to recommend an immediate complete cancellation or restric tions on production of ammuni- Portland, Ore., Aug. 21 (U.R) A thoughtless thief treatened today to ruin the homecoming of an army air forces lieutenant just released from a Mukden, Man churia, prison camp along with Gen. Jonathan Wainwnght, conv mander of the Bataan and Cor regidor Yank forces. Mr. and Mrs. Schwimmer, of San Francisco, reported to police that some person had stolen their son s six-year-old Scotty, Duffer, from in front of a restaurant while they were eating. An immediate appeal was broadcast by police and Portland radio stations in an effort to lo cate the stolen dog. Newspapers cooperated with humane society officials in advertising the dog's disappearance. "We've got to find Duffer be fore son gets home," she declar ed. "In all the communications we ever received from our son, Duffer was always mentioned." Argentine Students, Professors Strike Buenos Aires, Aug. 21 (U.R) Professors and students in Ar gentine universities w e n t . on strike today in protest against the government of President Edelmiro Farrell. The signal for the strike was Ferrell's return from a visit to Paraguay. During his absence, the government had been ad ministered by Vice President Juan D. Peron, strong man of the regime, who is accused by university and other liberal groups of seeking to become pres ident in elections scheduled for next year. During Farrell's two-week ab sence, the streets of Buenos Aires have been rocked by shoot ing and bombing episodes be tween Pro-United Nations groups celebrating Japan's defeat and "Nationalist" adherents alleged ly followers of Peron. OE Washington, Aug. 21 U.R) Spokesmen for the Pacific north west lumber industry today told the War Labor Board at a pub- lie hearing that higher wages might force the Industry to price itself out of the reconversion market. Kenneth Smith, spokesman for the redwood industries confer ence of San Francisco, said that "here is no need to have any conversion jitters about capacity of this industry to produce lum ber." He said that all this country needs is a building boom and the salesmanship to create the mar ket for the industry's product. In this country the producer is still king, Smith said. If the consumer decides to buy now, the industry can meet his de mands, he added. A. J. Voye, spokesman for the Western Pine association, said that if higher wages were added to what is already the highest wage scale in the Pacific north west "these boys (the unions) may be pricing themselves and ourselves out of business. He said that Pacific northwest lumber a quality lumber for home building may cost $75 to S100 per 1,000 feet for postwar homes. He said this cost would prob ably be much higher than for competing materials of steel, con. crete and plastics. COAST ENDORSED Washington, Aug. 21 (U.R) The U. S. navy could save up to $747,000 in land costs by estab lishing an academy on the west coast instead of carrying out its "shoe horn expansion of Ann apolis, Norman Littrell, former U. S. attorney general, said to day. While the Annapolis land, site of St. John's college, will net the navy 32 acres, Littrell said that for less money the department could acquire west coast sites of up to 2,000 acres. "What our future naval offi- cers need to train them -for mod ern warfare is space and more space, not historic atmosphere and tradition, according to Lit tle, who directed much of the J FROM AUGUST 27 TO OCTOBER 13, 1945, INCLUSIVE Formerly Rationed Leather Shoes MANY STYLES MEN'S WOMEN'S FOR STREET DRESS FOR SPORTS Not every size or color in all stylet 3.50 2.49 to -1 I A: ; government'! wartime land ac quisition through the justice de partment. GETTlAl IS VETS BIG WORRY, BRADLEY STATES Washington, Aug. 21 (U.R) Gen. Omar N. Bradley, new vet erans administrator, told sena tors considering a "Jobs for All" bill today that getting a Job is "the greatest concern" of the re turning veteran. He refused, however, to com mit himself as to whether pass ing the full-employment bill is the way to make sure veterans will find work. Bradley said a lot of soldiers coming back are not going to be satisfied with the jobs they left when they went to war. "They are going to want to apply what they have learned in the service," he said. The four-star general made It clear he did not want his testi mony to be taken as Indicating either "approval or disapproval" of the bill under consideration. "Even if it were appropriate to do so, I do not feel qualified to state whether the bill would accomplish the purpose for which it is Intended or whether, from the political or economic aspect, it would be desirable," he said. Bradley was lead-off witness in senate banking committee hearings on the measure. FLOOD CONTROL Washington, Aug. 21 U.R) U. S. army engineers today pre pared to swing into a gigantic program of flood control and river and harbor improvements that were postponed during the war. Congress has authorized such work amounting to $3,445,000, 000 which can be started as soon as the necessary funds are appro priated. Congress will decide which projects shall be started first. The engineers also have com pleted survey and review reports on additional projects amounting to $1,360,000,000 which have been found economically Justi fied for construction and mainte nance. Work on these projects can be instituted after authoriza tion and appropriation of funds by congress. estelFtIor 8 CENTERS WILL TREAT TROPICAL be discharged until they are non- Tutaday, Aug. 21, 1943 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE THM1 infectious. - m DEGREE AT BELFAST Dwlght D.
