Meat Extenders Should Place Emphasis o on ‘Quality Rather Than
That little pat of beef, a half pound, contains nearly 61 grams of protein, of which an adult male needs 70 grams a day. To equal this in other foods, you need, for instance, two quarts of milk or five eggs, or seven and a half ounces of American cheese. The beans are a fairly good: source although not yielding the complete protein contained in meat.
. Campaign Against Isolationism Is Begun by Voters’ League; Mrs. L. A. Smith Is Speaker °
“Though isolationism is gone, let us realize that isolationism is still
with us, threatening to rise in new,
subtly disguised, and even plausible
forms that could lead us again to disaster,” Mrs. Leonard A. Smith said yesterday at an Indianapolis League of Women Voters meeting in the
world war memorial building, Mrs. Smith is chairman of the

government and foreign policy department of the National League of Women Voters. Her talk was the opening of g,campaign to combat isolationism that the league feels is growing and could prevent the achievement of a lasting peace after the war. “It is a part Jof citizen responsibility in these critical days,” Mrs. Smith pointed out, “to be alert to the manifestations of isolationism inside and outside of congress and see that it does not dominate our policies. “We must seek international” cooperation not only during the waging of war but also during the waging of the peace, not as a matter of sentiment, but of sheer necessity” she continued.
Trade Agreements
She explained that congress will meet a major test soon as to whether it believes America should follow the policy of economic isolation or- economic co-operation. “If it repudiates the renewal of the reciprocal trade agreements program this spring, it will serve notice on the world‘that the United States cannot be counted on for economic go-operation — without which a prosperous and enduring peace would be impossible,” Mrs. Smith said. She also said that the lend-lease program, whose extension for another year is due to be considered soon by congress, should be extended without crippling amendments. The program then could continue as an instrument of co-opera-tion among the united nations for winning the war and for working out later the even harder problems of reconstruction and peace, she pointed out.

Ironing Twp A tip for the fortunate housewife who has an electric ironer: Always try to distribute the ironing over the entire surface of the shoe. This will avoid scorching cover and pad, because it will prevent the shoe from getting too hot in unused areas. Also, it will keep the padding from shifting.
By IRENE DELMAR Times Special Writer MEAT EXTENDERS have become bywords in the household, magic makers that feed the family on half the amount of meat when the butcher's stocks are short or the budget suffers collapse. But they lack magic if they provide only a quantity streich. It's the quality stretch, the supplying of more of the complete protein, that makes a meat extender worthy of its name. ¢ Consider carefully these figures, which show ‘the amounts of other foods needed to give the equivalent of a half pound of meat, which contains 60.78 grams of complete protein. Of the ani-, * mal products commonly used with meat to extend it to larger amounts you will need two quarts of milk or 7% ounces of American cheese, or eight of Swiss or five of Parmesan. It takes five eggs to provide the quantity of protein. Vegetable sources of , protein, which is not of the complete type afforded in meat, include legumes, nuts and their products, cereal products, vegetables and wheat products in general. Soybeans are reported as having the highest quality protein of any of these. ” » 8

WPB also cut the allocation of leather in half. So it seems logical that the manufacturer who turned out 100,000 pairs of shoes last year, half of them expensive and half inexpensive, will concentrate on the higherpriced line for his 50,000 pairs in 1943. This is likely, anyway, unless the WPB orders him fo spread his production, - proportionately, among the types of shoes he made last year. ” ” 2 : SPEAKING of shoes, OPA doesn’t agree with officials

Right after the rationing order was issued, a new type of shoe Higher-priced booteries ‘advised the public that it would be wise to buy shoes that cost more but would wear longer. This worried WPB, which “froze” production to the types of shoes formerly manufactured. The ruling would have been effective if applied to the pre-rationing rate of production.
