Miss

Miss

could
you
tell
somebody
to
send
us

Can
you

any

But
thirty
million
dollars
of
subsidy
money
from
Washington
had
been
plowed
into
Project
Soybean
—
an
enormous
acreage
in
Louisiana
,
where
a
harvest
of
soybeans
was
ripening
,
as
advocated
and
organized
by
Emma
Chalmers
,
for
the
purpose
of
reconditioning
the
dietary
habits
of
the
nation
.
Emma
Chalmers
,
better
known
as
Kip
’
s
Ma
,
was
an
old
sociologist
who
had
hung
about
Washington
for
years
,
as
other
women
of
her
age
and
type
hang
about
barrooms
.
For
some
reason
which
nobody
could
define
,
the
death
of
her
son
in
the
tunnel
catastrophe
had
given
her
in
Washington
an
aura
of
martyrdom
,
heightened
by
her
recent
conversion
to
Buddhism
.
"
The
soybean
is
a
much
more
sturdy
,
nutritious
and
economical
plant
than
all
the
extravagant
foods
which
our
wasteful
,
self
-
indulgent
diet
has
conditioned
us
to
expect
,
"
Kip
’
s
Ma
had
said
over
the
radio
;
her
voice
always
sounded
as
if
it
were
falling
in
drops
,
not
of
water
,
but
of
mayonnaise
.
"
Soybeans
make
an
excellent
substitute
for
bread
,
meat
,
cereals
and
coffee
—
and
if
all
of
us
were
compelled
to
adopt
soybeans
as
our
staple
diet
,
it
would
solve
the
national
food
crisis
and
make
it
possible
to
feed
more
people
.
The
greatest
food
for
the
greatest
number
—
that
’
s
my
slogan
.
At
a
time
of
desperate
public
need
,
it
’
s
our
duty
to
sacrifice
our
luxurious
tastes
and
eat
our
way
back
to
prosperity
by
adapting
ourselves
to
the
simple
,
wholesome
foodstuff
on
which
the
peoples
of
the
Orient
have
so
nobly
subsisted
for
centuries
.
There
’
s
a
great
deal
that
we
could
learn
from
the
peoples
of
the
Orient
.

Copper
tubing
,
Miss
Taggart
,
could
you
get
some

somewhere

"
the
voices
were
pleading
over
her
telephone

But
five
million
dollars
was
being
spent
by
the
office
of
Morale
Conditioning
on
the
People
’
s
Opera
Company
,
which
traveled
through
the
country
,
giving
free
performances
to
people
who
,
on
one
meal
a
day
,
could
not
afford
the
energy
to
walk
to
the
opera
house
.
Seven
million
dollars
had
been
granted
to
a
psychologist
in
charge
of
a
project
to
solve
the
world
crisis
by
research
into
the
nature
of
brother
-
love
.
Ten
million
dollars
had
been
granted
to
the
manufacturer
of
a
new
electronic
cigarette
lighter
—
but
there
were
no
cigarettes
in
the
shops
of
the
country
.
There
were
flashlights
on
the
market
,
but
no
batteries
;
there
were
radios
,
but
no
tubes
;
there
were
cameras
,
but
no
film
.
The
production
of
airplanes
had
been
declared
"
temporarily
suspended
.
"
Air
travel
for
private
purposes
had
been
forbidden
,
and
reserved
exclusively
for
missions
of
"
public
need
.
"
An
industrialist
traveling
to
save
his
factory
was
not
considered
as
publicly
needed
and
could
not
get
aboard
a
plane
;
an
official
traveling
to
collect
taxes
was
and
could
.
"
People
are
stealing
nuts
and
bolts
out
of
rail
plates
,
Miss
Taggart
,
stealing
them
at
night
,
and
our
stock
is
running
out

the

is

what
are
we
to

Miss

But
a
super

-
four
-
foot
-
screen
television
set
was
being
erected
for
tourists
in
a
People
’

Park
in
Washington
—
and
a
super

cyclotron
for
the
study
of
cosmic
rays
was
being
erected
at
the
State
Science
Institute
,
to
be

"
The
trouble
with
our
modern
world
,
"
Dr
.
Robert
Stadler
said
over
the
radio
,
at
the
ceremonies
launching
the
construction
of
the
cyclotron
,
"
is
that
too
many
people
think
too
much
.
It
is
the
cause
of
all
our
current
fears
and
doubts
.
An
enlightened
citizenry
should
abandon
the
superstitious
worship
of
logic
and
the
outmoded
reliance
on
reason
.
