Strato-Bomber and Low

Ingenuity of Allies.

LONDON, Sept. 21 —A pretty problem has been: presented to the royal air forces, and ultimately to the United States air force, by the antics of two different types of German aircraft which literally have

been getting by with murder dur-|

ing the last few weeks. The first jaw-breaker is: the new

raider equipped with a sealed pressure cabin and two Diesel engines with turbo-superchargers. These machines come over at higher than 40,000 feet, flying very fast, and after dropping a few light bombs or taking. photographs, run for home before interceptors can get at

them. It is'no secret that very few/

anti-aircraft guns employed so far in this war are capable of hitting anything at that altitude. Dover had a glimpse of this plane the other day when one came over

fl| at 42,000 feet, an all-time record for

service operations in this args. Menace Coast Towns

on British coastal towns with relative immunity. These planes come in fast at low altitudes, drop their 500 or 1000-pound bombs, machinegun the streets and are off to France again before interception can be organized. While they may be picked up by the British radio

location network, there is not time

to send Spitfires to the scene unless a patrol just happens to be in the neighborhood. While this seems like small beer to outsiders it is no ‘joke for the residents of seaside ‘towns. Twelve persons were killed when six FW190’s, made just such a raid on a southwest coastal town one recent morning. For Americans, with their traditional interest in the possibilities of stratosphere bombing, the problem of the Junkers-86 will be the more interesting of the two.

Originally this was going to be |

a story about tomatoes. And then Shorty Shaw, conceiver of Shorty Shaw's Salted

Soys, told us how to solve the |

meat problem, in case there is one. The answer, with no more delay, is the simple soybean. “It’s always been my ambition to do something for the soyban,” Mr. Shaw said with a wistful look in his eye. “I don’t know, but . 2 And then he looked. away into the atmosphere, apparently generating some more ambition. i

Like Writing a Novel

With - the young Mr. Shaw, a plant research scientist for VanCamp's, Inc., advancing the prestige of the edible soybean is somewhat like the desire of a news-

‘paperman to write the great

American novel. “There’s a lot of superstition that has to be broken down,” said Mr. Shaw. “People think soybeans are hog feed!” This attitude toward soybeans is obviously disgusting to Mr. Shaw, for he long has been a bosom friend of the plant, working by its side many long days. fe grew edible soybeans when he was a boy on a farm near Lafayette, Ind. He was so good at it, in fact, the 4-H gave him a scholarship to Purdue university, where he really got down to. business. One might say Mr. Shaw even majored in soybeans, for,6 his

thesis for the degree of bachelor ;

of science in agriculture was written on the “esculent (edible by man) soybean.” He still carries the thesis with him.

Graduated in 1941

On a Sunday in 1941, Ralph V. (that’s his official name) Shaw graduated from Purdue and the néxt Monday he got right to work for VanCamp’s. Among other things, he cross-breeds wild South American tomatoes with domestic Baltimores of Indiana, never forgetting the soybean, however. Although he may not have convinced VanCamp’s that the soybean is “natural” for commercial canning, his feeling for it has never left him. “If the Japs can take our iron and shower it back on us, why can’t we take soybeans and throw 'em back at them?” Mr. Shaw asks without fear of argument. Showering soybeans on the Japs, literally, might not hurt them very much, but it would show that we'd copped one of their ideas at that. Perhaps it would be demoralizing. In the Orient, the soybean has been eaten by man since 2838 B. C,, or so it was reported to this writer. We pass it along untouched by personal opinion.

Meets Meat Deficiency

Germans eat it, too, Mr. Shaw said. This, as we get it, goes to prove one important thing: In countries where meat is scarce, the deficiency can be made up and more by the soybeans. Pulling some books, papers. and phamplets out of his desk, Mr. Shaw quoted us some facts on soybeans as’ compared to ‘beef- | steak: Soybeans Beefsteak

Since protein is what you want when seeking a substitute for meat, soybeans, obviously, are ‘what we're looking for. Chinese, said Mr. Shaw, have been getting along nicely for centuries with little or no meat and lots of soybeans. At the Shaw household, 144 W. 18th st., soybeans are a common attraction on the dinner table, Once when Mr. Shaw was at Purdue, he was in charge of food for a horticulture club banquet.

Proud of Slogan

He served up two pans of soybeans and two of lima beans. The soybeans were eaten before the limas, Mr. Shaw told us. For exhibition purposes, Mr. Shaw once fixed some salted dry soybeans and added the slogan: Shorty Shaw’s Salted Soys Satisfy. It’s a slogan he’s mighty proud of. Of course, the salted soybean
