Lynn Says:
Make Rationing Work: Keep
food essentials in mind when
planning your menus, and use
point-rationed food to best advan-
tage. When you spend any of
your coupons for rationed food,
make sure you are not buying
anything that you could buy
fresh.
In buying meats buy those of
which you get the most for your
points. Extend whatever cuts
of meat you can with cereals,
stuflings, food extenders and
vegetables to make them go fur-
ther.
Start today to save sugar and
put it in a bank so that you will
have enough for the canning you
are going to do this summer.
Do not use sugar anywhere that
you possibly can avoid it. Start
planning your victory garden, so
that you will be ready to put up
as much of your share in fruits
and vegetables.
Buy quality foods to get the
most value of your points. This
applies to canned and processKi
foods, meat, cherrn and butter.
Next Decade to See Changes in Air Travel
That Seem Fantastic to All but Aviators
But Most of Us Will Live
To Learn Every Prophecy
Has Come True!
Bruno, automobiles “will
decline almost as soon as
shot is fired in World War
PROPHET — Harry Bruno, who
“grew up” with American aviation,
makes some startling—but “too con-
servative,” so say his friends—pre-
dictions about air travel during the
next ten years.
This Glenn Martin super-passenger liner is not a plane of the “far
future”—rather it belongs in the “near future” for plans for its production
already exist.
burning engines of 5,000 horsepower
each. But the use of gasoline, in
aviation, will some day be as ob-
solete as the era of steam in auto-
mobiles. Electric engines of 10,000
horsepower, receiving their impulses
through rays transmitted from
ground stations will supplant gaso-
line engines within two decades of
the end of the war.
“Passengers with more time, out
for a more economical ocean cross-
ing, will ride in the comfortable
helium-filled dirigibles of the new
world. These giant cargo and pas-
senger airships will cross the Atlan-
tic in about 36 hours, carrying fast
freight and about twice as many
passengers as the fast planes.”
If you decided to sell your auto-
mobile because of the inconvenience
of gas rationing and wait until after
the war to get a new one, don't
count too much on becoming a
“motorist” again. For, according
to Mr. ~
start to
the last
II. The name of Igor Sikorsky will
be as well known as Henry Ford’s,
for his helicopter will all but re-
place the horseless carriage as the
new means of transportation. In-
stead of a car in every garage, there
will be a helicopter.”
Why? Well, these marvelous ma-
chines can do everything an auto-
mobile can do, do it better and be-
sides take you up in the air, far
from the gasoline fumes of the
crowded highways. Look at this pic-
ture of a Sunday afternoon pleasure
“drive,” as Mr. Bruno paints it:
“The family will take off in its
helicopter from the backyard or the
roof hangar, climb straight to the
weeks’ vacation—and the low cost
of airplane and airship travel will
make a most enlightening vaca-
tion in Norway or India a reality
for the Detroit mechanic or the Bos-
ton librarian.”
Planes of the Future.
How will they be able to do all
this? Here is the answer in Mr.
Bruno’s words:
“The big planes of the next decade
will glide through the stratosphere
at speeds of 600 miles an hour and
more. They will enable a man to
breakfast in New York and have
dinner in Paris on the same day.
Citizens of Detroit and Denver will
be able to do exactly the same, even
though their planes will fly non-
stop from their home towns to Eu-
rope and South America.
“Their planes will not be patterned
after the huge flying boats that now
cross the oceans. The new planes
of 1952 will be huge stratosphere
land planes, whose sealed, oxygen-
equipped cabins will carry more
than 200 passengers in all the luxury
and comfort travelers enjoyed on
luxury steamships like the Queen
Mary and the Normandie. They will
be powered by banks of gasoline-

CALIFORNIA high school
youngsters will spend two
weeks* study - vacations in a
China reached after a fast hop
in a plane or a huge dirigible.
The graduating classes of Hud-
gon’s Bay Eskimo elementary
schools will fly to New York or
Chicago for supervised study-
visits.
Half-naked natives from the
forests of Malay will fly to uni-
versities in California or Aus-
tralia and fly back to the native
villages as agronomists and
physicists.
“Impossible!” you say — or
perhaps only: “Not likely!”
As a matter of fact, it’s not only
possible but it’s entirely probable.
You can take the word of a man
who knows!
He is Harry Bruno, who grew up
with American aviation and with its
early heroes. If any man is quali-
fied to forecast what’s ahead in an
America that has always pioneered
in flight and that will probably be
even more dependent on air travel
in the future than it has in the past,
he is that man.
So when he makes such proph-
ecies as those given at the beginning
of this article, don’t just laugh them
off. Instead, read these words of his:
“All this—and more—can be accom-
plished with the planes and airships
that exist today. But the world of
tomorrow will fly greater, faster,
more economical flying machines
and airships than now exist.”
You’ll find those words in a new
book, “Wings Over America—The
Inside Story of American Aviation,"
written by Harry Bruno and pub-
lished by Robert M. McBridge and
Company of New York. It’s not
only an interesting book because it’s
the “inside story” told by a man
who, as one of the six original “Quiet
Birdmen” and as today’s foremost
aviation publicist, has first-hand
knowledge of every memorable and
spectacular event in the develop-
ment of America’s aerial power. It’s
also an important book—important
right now when America is engaged
in a life-and-death struggle. For, as
Maj. Alexander P. de Seversky, who
wrote the introduction to Mr.
Bruno’s book, says:
“The United Nations will win this
war through superior science, or
they will not win it at all. We must
cut loose from the past and embark
upon audacious new strategies, with
air power as their core. We must
utilize our superior technological set-
up to spring intellectual surprises,
in machines and strategic innova-
tions, on the enemy. And thus it
will be that the dreamers, the pio-
neers of yesterday’s aviation will be-
come the realists and leaders of to-
day and tomorrow. The dynamics
of air power are so intensive that
we must plan for tomorrow if we
want to be on time today. Fortu-
nately America has the leadership
to achieve this. Harry Bruno tells
us where and why.”
Such being the case, let’s “cut
loose from the past” (so far as our
ideas of the limitations of air travel
are concerned) and “embark upon
audacious new” voyages into the
future with Mr. Bruno. You can do
that by reading the last chapter in
his book—“The Next Ten Years.”
Always Look Forward.
At the outset of that chapter he
says: “The gods of aviation have
one rule which all must obey: al-
ways look forward.” Then he ad-
monishes us to “Look ten years
ahead to a post-war world in which
the defeated Axis gangs are a thing
of the past, and you see one of the
most powerful reasons for each and
every one of us to buckle down and
do our utmost to guarantee this
victory. Thanks to aviation, this is
one of the most glorious ages in
world history.”
Besides his predictions about the
California high school youngsters,
the Eskimo school children and the
half-naked natives from the forests
of Malay, Mr. Bruno foresees also
the day when:
“Shepherds will fly from the crags
of Tibet to universities in Vladivos-
tok and fly back to their native vil-
lages as doctors.
“Plane loads of professors will
take off from Madrid to train South
American Indians in new universi-
ties established near new airfields
in Colombia, in Venezuela, in Peru.
“The whole world will become the
oyster of any American with a two
Aviation Pioneers Made Possible Heroic War Exploits of Today
America will never forget the
courage and heroism jf such World
War II heroes as Capt. Colin Kelly
Jr., Lieut. Edward H. O’Hare, Gen.
Claire Chennault and Gen. James
H. Doolittle, who wrote their epics
in the air and signed them with their
honor. Let us not forget, however,
the names of the pioneers who made
these war exploits possible—not only
the Wright Brothers, Glenn Curtis,
Billy Mitchell and Admiral Byrd,
with whose activities we are all
familiar, but the many other auda-
cious men whose reputations have
been obscured. Here is a partial
list of the roll of honor: Calbraith
Perry Rodgers, the man who flew
across the continent in 1911 and one
of the outstanding aviators of pre-
war America; Jimmy Taylor, the
unassuming, little known flying
genius who for 20 years was one
of our ace test pilots; Lincoln
Beachy, a great exhibition pilot who
made tests that saved thousands of
lives; Vernon Castle, a brilliant war-
time aviator who is remembered (if
at all) as a dancer; Roscoe Turner,
a speed demon with a useful pur-
pose; Clifford Henderson, the Bar-
num of aviation, who did more than
any aviator except Lindbergh to at-
tract American attention to flying.
These Americans gambled their
necks, their brains and their money
that aviation might grow.—“Wings

level authorized by government reg-
ulation, fly on to their destination,-
and land on earth, on a roof top, or
on water—as fancy dictates. In-
stead of wheels, the craft is mounted
on rubber floats—inasmuch as it
rises and descends like an elevator
anywhere, wheels are not needed.
These ’copters will be so safe and
will cost so little to produce that
small models will be made for 'teen-
age youngsters. These tiny 'copters,
when school lets out, will fill the
skies as the bicycles of our youth
filled the pre-war roads.”
But 'copters aren't the only ma-
chines that your children and their
children will be driving. For, says
Mr. Bruno, “the great sport of our
youth will be motorless flight. Glider
meets will be held all over the coun-
try, much like the sailing meets of
other years.”
However, the glider won’t be a |
machine for “pleasure driving”
only. It will become an important
economic factor in the transporta-
tion of the future. “Powerful cargo-
carrying sky trucks will tow trains
of cargo carrying gliders—since all
but the bulkiest slow freight will be
carried by airplane or glider-towing,
cargo-carrying dirigibles. The glider
will also become the great transpor-
tation medium of commuting.”
Trains of Gliders.
Which means that when you de-
cide to visit Aunt Emma back in
Syracuse or Cousin Will out in Ore-
gon, here's how you’ll go:
“Glider trains, towed by a lead
passenger-carrying plane that will
fly hundreds of miles, will drop glid-
ers carrying local passengers at air-
ports all along the route. Thus, a
trip from New York to Albany, for
instance, would be made in a glider
attached to the New York-Buffalo
sky train. Passengers would board
the train at the overhead station of
Rockefeller Center. The sky-train,
which started from LaGuardia Field,
would pick up the Albany glider at
Rockefeller Center (and pick it up
in flight, too) and continue on
toward Buffalo. Over Albany, the
conductor-pilot of the Albany glider
will cut his craft loose from the
train and glide to earth. By the
time the lead plane reaches Buffalo,
he will have dropped all of his glid-
ers along the route.”
“But all of these machines can
still fall down and kill people—no,
sir. I’ll stick to good old Mother
Earth!” you say. The aviation of
the future will become increasingly
safer, Mr. Bruno believes. He
writes: “All aircraft will have tele-
vision weather survey sets, enabling
them to see and hear weather con-
ditions along the routes that lie
ahead. In this manner, they will be
able to fly above or around storm
areas and add to the comfort of
each flight.
“All airplane factories will be en-
tirely underground, air-conditioned
and deep enough so that no aerial
bomb can ever hurt them. Airports
will also go underground and what
will appear to be an empty field will
suddenly become active when a
plane lands on it. A quick taxi to a
designed spot, and down will go the
underground hangar as the surface
sinks under the operation of a large
elevator. An international police
force, armed with the newest type
of air weapon, will have no trouble
maintaining order and understand-
ing.”
Such is Mr. Bruno’s preview of
“things to come.” Do you find them
hard to believe? Then reflect upon
these final words:
“These predictions are a lot more
conservative than the flat prediction,
in 1900, that before the century was
over man would build a machine
that would really fly. If anything,
most of my friends—men like Igor
Sikorsky and C. M. Keys, who read
this chapter, for instance—mark the
predictions down as being too earth-
bound, too conservative. And this
should tell you that most of you will
live to see them all come true!”

Good Morning!
What’s your breakfast?
of orange juice and * sip
or fruit, cereal,
eggs, toast and
coffee? No need
to tell you which
one you can start
a man-sized
day’s work on, is
there? A break-
fast should supply almost a third of
the day’s calories and food value.
A slight breakfast will prevent you
from waking up fully—and thus
starting to realize your full quota
of production whether you’re on the
home or factory front. But, treat
the first meal of the day with the
same respect you do the other two,
and you find yourself refreshed and
more than ready to do your job—
and do it well.
If you’re still in doubt about the
value of a good breakfast, look at
breakfasts fed servicemen. Do you
think they could get up and do their
work if it weren’t for fruit, cere-
als, eggs, toast or hotbread and
beverage for their first fare of the
day? No, ma’am.
Breakfast affords a grand chance
for you to get your vitamin Bl—
that important morale vitamin
which prevents nervousness and
restlessness. You need this vitamin
every day—and its best sources are
whole grain cereal and bread—and
yeast.
On warmer days, serve oatmeal
or whole wheat cereal, on cooler
days, use the enriched, ready-to-eat
cereals which are unrationed. When
the berries and fruits start coming
in, use a few of them with the cere-
als for a delightful breakfast dish.
Breakfast is a good way to take
care of the citrus fruit requirement
of the day, too. A
half grapefruit, a
large orange or a
large glass of or-
ange juice will
fulfill the vitamin
C quota of the
day. Remember,
however, that vi-
tamin C is easily
destroyed by air, and that means
you should not squeeze or cut up
oranges until just before serving.
•Old-Fashioned Popovers.
3 eggs
1*4 cups milk
V/i cups enriched flour
*4 teaspoon salt
Sift flour and salt into a bowl.
Beat eggs and add milk to them
and stir gradually into the flour to
make a smooth batter, then beat
thoroughly with egg beater; put in
hot greased muffin tins two-thirds
full of mixture. Bake in a hot oven
(450 degrees) half hour, then in mod-
erate (350 degree) oven 15 minutes
until brown. Note: No leavening
agent is used in popovers, and their
rising action is dependent upon thor-
ough beating.
