STARVATION TALK RIDICULED
Plenty To Eat In Britain (Rec. 8.6 p.m.) LONDON, June 23. The id-a widely put about by Goebbels that Britain is on the verge of starvation is ridiculed by an American girl, Miss Jacqueline Cochrane, the first woman pilot to bring a bomber across the Atlantic, soon after her arrival In Britain. Miss Cochrane said: “I am not a heavy eater but I can use a bit of food, and I must say I have had all I want here. My first meal made me think that they were being nice to me by putting on something special, so I rang up and said I did not want to be treated different from anyone else. They said that was what everyone could have.” ________
