DEMOCRACY AND QUINCES.
Sir,-"Less on the Eats" has very ably expressed the thoughts "of many women (and men too). I would go further and say that many cooking recipes printed in The Listener and given over the air are poor because many of‘them are so similar. Very much time and space could be ‘saved if the basic Tecipe were given in full with a short list of variations in quantities, ingredients and methods. Quite often a page of recipes could be condensed to a quarter page. Women who are interested in the questions asked by "Less on the Eats" are also interested in good cooking based on scientific diets for their families, but what authority have you for implying that ten times more of your women subscribers are interested in only the cooking? There are plenty of homely magazines for women, but The Listener has given us wider interests. I can assure you that many of your readers keep hoping and expecting you to go still further. Please give us a lead,
