College Men in Germany Face Hard Problem Six Out of Every Hun dred Degree Men Have Employment Berlin — (UP) — Only six nut of every 100 students gradu ated from German colleges, and universities can expect to find paying employment this year, ac cording to estimates of Berlin ed ucators. Experience of the past 10 dis turbed years shows the the Ger man business and industrial ma chine will not absorb more, es pecially when the newcomers must compete with alumni, who have been making the rounds of job seeking for three to four years and have become veterans at it. Enrollment and graduation fig ures in Germany seem rather small compared to those of the United States, yet school officials report a steady increase of stu dents. Approximately 25,000 more entered German colleges and uni versities than in 1930, and a large pt reentage of these did so merely In order to keep busy rather than take up the unsuccessful hunt for work. iw.ooti Sstuunis There are approximately 140.000 atudents in institutions of higher education, between 19 and 25. Of these, about 26,000 will be gradu ated and only some 1 500 of them tan expect to find work. The first thought of a German graduate naturally is to seek, em ployment in the branch which he lias studied, but the idea of compensation is. in most cases, only a remote dream. Some large industries even ask. and receive, a small fee for taking on a grad uate who has passed their re quirements. These are not mere ly under-graduate appren tices, but full-fledged graduates with their degree and often a year of practical work behind them. Other firms will take on a lim ited number of graduates, paying ••pocket money" averaging 60 marks per month (about $15'. One professor, a graduate in en gineering, told the United Pi ess hr had been seeking summer em ployment for months "at almost any wage" and had found noth ing. Jobs Scarce The scarcity of jobs for gradu ates, and the tendency to remain in school longer, has resulted in overcrowding of the school facili ties in Germany and has created a problem which educators urc tackling with difficulty. Some isolated attempts have been made at placing students in labor "concentration camps." and a bill lias been presented to the Reichstag for financing a system cf "student laborers’ legions" al though these, in many cases, Plans Standardization Of Its Facist Terms Rome —(UPI— The Fascist gov ernment has in mind a plan to standardize in English.

A. : Greeley, United States soldier and explorer of half century ago, has been given to the Museum of Sci ence and Industry by Chicago nackers. Greeley went tcs Lady Franklin Bay, in 1881, lor the government, for exploration, establishment of polar stations, and collection of specimens. In 1883 they left Dis covery Bay, Lady Franklin Bay, Grinnell Land, and trekked 400 miles southward to Cape Sabine, but failed to find the relief ships that were to meet them there. Seven of the party died from starvation and exposure that winter. Relief expeditions sent to them in 1882 and 1883 failed to reach Greeley’s party, but in June, 1884, Commander Winfield S. Schley, U.S.N., found and brought the party back to Portsmouth. It was on this expedition that the soup was carried. Special care was taken in preparing the soup, each can being soldered from the in side, painted with two coats of red lead, and stenciled. The surplus cans were kept at the Portsmouth Navy Yard for some time, but later W. H. Cullen, Portsmouth, N. H., sant them to the packing firm, whicli in turn presented them to the museum. -« « ' Sister Mary’s Kitchen HOW TO PREPARE VEGETABLE PLATE As vegetables come into the mar ket in greater variety and abund ance, the “vegetable plate” dinner becomes more important. The skill ful use of many vegetables during late summer makes for both econ omy and health. There are several important factors that must be kept in mind when planning vegetable plate meals. The structure of vegetables, the method of cooking and serving and the food values of the various vegetables chosen must be consid ered. Contrast of color and flavor should influence the choice as well as the method of cooking and serv ing. If one vegetable is to be served creamed. let another be served plain with butter, another grilled or browned, and a third in the form of a fritter, timbale or croquette. While all vegetables contain at least a trace of protein, It is not enough to keep up the balance in the body between the giving out and the intake of energy. Vegetable protein is of poorer quality than that found in other sources. Nuts, eggs, cheese and milk can be intro duced into vegetable plates in such a way that the proper balance is maintained without using meat. Cheese can be used with some vegetables if added to the white sauce served with them. All veg etables do not combine well with a cheese sauce, so the choice is limited, but cauliflower, potatoes ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦•♦♦♦ ♦ 4 ♦ TOMORROW'S MENU 4 4- ♦ 4- BREAKFAST: Greengage * 4. plums, cereal, cream, broiled 4 4 liverwurst, celery and radishes, ♦ •4 crisp toast, milk, coffee. 4 ♦ LUNCHEON: Potato and 4 4 parsley soup with grated 4 4- cheese, graham bread and but- 4 ♦ ter sandwiches, tomato and 4t 4- green pepper salad, lemonade, ♦ 4- cookies. 4 4- DINNER: Roasted spring 4 4 chicken, grilled sweet potatoes ♦ 4- and pineapple, creamed cauli- ♦ 4' flower, combination green salad, ♦ 4 peach shortcake, milk, coffee. 4 4- ♦ ♦ 44444444 4-44444 and tomatoes are delicious with cheese. Summer squash and eggplant are good with cheese just melted over them. Toasted cheese sand wiches can, of course, be served with any combination of vegetables to furnish the protein In an easily digested form along with the bread stuff. Poached or hard cooked eggs add interest to almost all vegetable com binations. Stuffed vegetables such as toma toes and peppers and potatoes can be the means of taking care of the protein calories if the stuffing is chosen with care. Tomatoes or pep pers stuffed with a combination of rice and peanuts finely chopped are particularly good for an August dinner. Other nuts can of course be used, but peanuts are suggested be cause they are cheap and very rich in protein. They combine well with nearly all vegetables, too. The following vegetable plate menu will suggest other combina tions: Stufied baked tomatoes, creamed celery, corn on the cob, buttered peas. Contrast of color, texture, meth od of serving and flavor are ob served in the choice of the vege tables. Balance in food values is obtained by the materials added for the serving or "dressing" of the vegetables. A simple dessert of fresh fruit al ways is acceptable with a vegetable dinner when the proper balance has been maintained throughout the meal. If the plate has been lacking in protein, custard is a good choic# lor the dessert. No Tails for Pat. From Tit-Bits. A wealthy Irishman was proud of the opportunity to "show off” on the occasion of a visit to Lon don of one of his compatriots. He invited him to dine at a fashion able restaurant. "Now. me blioy." he said, “just you follow my lead and I’ll order everything of the best.” Seated at the table the host led off with: “Waiter, a couple of cocktails.’' His friend regarded him with astonishment and then whispered audibly: "Waiter, if ye don’t moind. I’d rather have a wing.” Sun Shooters Set for Action Members of the Georgetown University expedition are shown at Frye burg, Me., where they are preparing to photograph the eclipse of {he sun on August 31.

GERMAN FILM FANS INCREASE Berlin —<UP>— Perhaps because Germans now, more than ever be fore, are seeing a place whare they can forget reality, movie at tendance increased during the past year despite drops in nearly everyone's income. Germany's biggest movie con cern. the Ufa, announced that 1 500,000 more people visited the concerns theaters between April, 1931, and March, 1932, than dur ing the preceding year. Thus film producers here have weathered hard times fairly well. They have naturally profitted from the vogue of the German talking film, which greatly helped them to ward off American competition. Besides, the government’s protec tive measures tended to eep for eign competition off the market. On the other hand. currency regulations in Southeastern Eu rope curtailed the German movie producers’ receipts from foreign countries. The revenues of the theaters also were curtailed by re duction of ticket prices, which proved to be inevitable. The tax burden, however, remained un changed. Thus, movies were also affected by the crisis. One of the biggest German mo tion picture concerns, the Emelka, recently suspended its payments and applied for receivership. Soviet Lifts Ban on Jazz Music and Song Moscow —(UP)— Jazz music and Gypsy songs, for many years barred from the music shops here, will again be put on sale, under a resolution passed by the commis sariat of education. The resolution declares that this new freedom applies only to fox-trots and Gypsy songs which have ‘‘artistic or musical value.” In effect, however, it means the lifting of an old taboo. This action is in line with a movement among Communists to relax some of the prohibitions against pleasures. It was herald ed most strongly in a speech bv the secretary-general of the Com munist Youih organization. Alex ander Kosariov. i Kosariov declared boldly what a year ago would have sounded al most like treason — namely, that the organization does not oppose love, flowers, neckties, gay music, and other such things. Equally significant of the effort to restore laughter in the Soviet Union is the reported action of the Politburo of the Communist Germany Conducts Tours to Tannenberg Koenigsberg, East Prussia—(UP) •—Tours to the battlefield of Tan nenberg, high tide of German arms on the Eastern Front in the World war, are being organized on a more intensive scale and are now being made on a regular schedule, similar to the French conducted visits to battlefields in the North.

Spain Enthuses Over Motorcycle Racing Madrid —<UP)— Dirt-track mo torcycle racing, known here sim ply as "dirt-track,” introduced to the country several years ago by British racers, is getting more popular. The inovation of a fem inine racer has ben introduced this season for the benefit of the fans. A mixture of motorcycle racing and bullfighting was recently per formed at a night burlesque bul fight at Alicante. Two riders, ad vertised as "Mister Sagraw” and "Mister Aresta,” attempted to kill their bulls while riding motorcy cles, but the bulls prevented this by knocking over their mounts, so that the riders had to kill them on foot. The spectacle did not arouse much enthusiasm. -• ♦ Revolutionary Musicians Society Is Dissolved Moscow —(UP)— The associa tion of Revolutionary Musicians, here, has been formally dissolved, marking the victory of the more classical wing of the musical world, here, over the self-styled proletarian composers. A more heterogenous non political Union of Soviet Compos ers was formed to replace the dis solved body. Similar action was taken earlier to abolish associations of prole tarian writers, playwrights and other artists. They were all charged with having hampered the full development of the arts and with having failed to produce worthy works. - ♦ ♦ ..— DIVERSIFIED PHILOSOPHY.

WYOMING BEES IN BIG INDUSTRY Cheyenne, Wyo. —(UP)— Wyo min is known across the nation as one of the cattle and sheep Dioducin centers or America, duu another industry, although little known, is pouring half a million dollars into the pockets of Wyo ming farmers each year. Wyoming bee keepers care for an average of 30,000 couonies of bees each year, according to L. T. Oldroyd. state commissioner of agriculture. The bees, during the last nine years, have produced a tctal of 23,500.000 pounds of honey, or an average of 2,800,000 pounds a year. , It seems the bees in Wyoming ore busier than the bees in other sections of th Und Sisa b-tsswO ae sections of the United States be cause each colony produces about 83 pounds a year, nearly double the average production in the United States. x A scarcity of drones must have been prevalent in 1923 because the bees produced 17 pounds of col ony, with a total production of 3,825,000 pounds of honey. Fremont county is the bet cen ter of the state. That coutj^nasfc year produced 879,000 pounds of honey from 7,800 colonies. Se 'eral large commercial apairies are lo cated here, some of which produce honey each season. Big Horn as much as 8 to 10 carloads of county ranks second in honey production, with Platte county third. -- ■■ ■- ♦ ♦--— DIVERSIFIED PHILOSOPHY If you’d put petticoats back on Most any girl you meet, Present to her a comfy chair, That has a horse hair seat.

Department of Commerce figures, just issued, reveal that the nation’s per capita consumption is 98 pounds. Mary land has the sweetest tooth of ail, her individual average being 201 pounds annually, while Arkansas has the lowest of any state, 47 pounds. The United States will eat nearly eleven billion pounds of sugar this year and pay more than half a billion dollars for it. But the national sugar bill is low by comparison with what it may be, according to sugar experts, who arousing the Government statis tics to support their plea for im mediate revision of the reciprocity treaty between the United States and Cuba. They point out that the present treaty was made in 1903. It gives Cuba a preferential of 20 per cent on the sugar duty. The Hawley Smoot tariff act of 1930 taxes su gar 2'j cents a pound, so that even under the preferential Cuban sugar must pay two cents. This, the trade experts say, is forcing the Cubans out of the American market, because they cannot pay the duty and make a profit. They now supply only a third instead of the former half of our national requirements. They add that if Cuban shipments should cease en tirely, the demand her would ex ceed the supply by a third, with prices increasing fourfold. ■ ♦♦ State Woolen Mills Work Double Shifts Chester.
