    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.

Washington, Aug. 21 (U.R)
The war production board will
consider tomorrow relaxing
some controls over shotgun and
rifle ammunition.
The WPB clearance commit

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

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.
