SUMMER SALADS
SUMNER SALADS

+ Lettuce, green onions, new cab
bage, carrots, radishes, green pep
pers, cucumbers, tomatoes-the
abundance of fresh vegetables avail
able now should be an open invita-
tion to every housewife to serve
plenty oil salads.
"A combination of any of these raw
vegetables with either French dress
ing, salad dressing, or mayonnaise
makes a good mixed salad. For ex-
ample, grated carrots, shredded cab
bage, and chopped onions with salad
dressing makes good variation OF
coleslaw. A mixture of chopped
green peppers and chopped cucum-
bers with French dressing may be
used to stun tomatoes.
Left over cooked vegetables NAV
be used to mix with each other or
with raw vegetables for a salad.
Cooked peas, lima beans, potatoes,
beets, chopped spinach, and aspar-
agus can all be served cold as a sal
ad.
II your family tire Of warmed over
cuts of meat, try grinding OF finely
chepping these cold remnants andi
combining them into salads. Chop
ped cooked beef, horseradish, chop
ped celery, chopped green peppers.
mayonnaise makes a good cold sal
ad for lunch. Cold sliced pork, ham,
veal, or beef with a mixed vegetable
salad makes a complete salad plate.
Such fish as salmon, shrimp, sar-
dimes, and tuna are frequently used
in salads. Tomatoes or a slice Of
lemon helps to bring out their flavor.
Hard cooked eggs may be chopped
and mixed with almost any salad
combinations or they may be sliced
or quartered and used for a garnish
at the side. Devilled eggs are de-
servedly popular as salad accom-
paniment
Cheese is also a good companion
to vegetable salads. A spoonful Of
cottage cheese or a slice of Ameri-
can cheese makes almost any salad
taste better.
Fruit salads taste particularly
good these hot days. Try a canned
peach stuffed with cottage cheese
and surrounded by fresh juicy straw
berries on a bed Of home grown let
Iuce. Left over fruits can be served

also equipped with a radio receiving
outfit. which incidentally is set only
to pick up the police call broadcast
from headquarters.
New police headquarters are in the
municipal building. Here Is located
the transmitter used IN police radio
work. The office is also equipped
with n phone that is connected with

always at the desk to take care Of
incoming calls and to phone or radio
emergency calls to the patrolmen.
At the end Of his patrol, each mem

his activities for the day. The COM
mission has also established, with
the cooperation of State Police Su-
perintendent Norman Purnell, fing-

characters brought to headquarters
for booking are fngerprinted at the
same time.
The men work ten hour shifts and
system worked out by the COM
mission and Captain Moore, provides
that three men are on active duty
at all times. On Saturday nights and
other busy times, the schedule is so
staggered as to provide additional
patrolmen. Each man. during his
shift has a schedule to work by in
cluded in which is patrol Of the bus
mess district especially in the rear
of the stores on North and South
Walnut streets.
The intent of the council and COM
in reorganizing the police
was to provide Milford
with a police force second to none

more than fair chance Of achieving
this goal, is attested by the fact that
the superintendent Of the state po-

in the light Of German victories in

as he called his seven-member ma

in its first meeting and set six
months az the goal for gearing the
nations resources to full produc-

legislators that the new funds will

GEORGE WILLIAMS
EeOnOHY

Last January plans were announc-
ed to effect some economy in federal
expenditures, but whenever the
House cut appropriations, the Senate
not only would restore such Teduc-
tions. but invariably add huge sums
to the bills. This policy has over
ridden budget recommendation and
caused many controversies on con-
ference reports Of the two Houses.
The Senate added about S17,000,O00
to the Interior Department 1941 bill,
including about $1O,OO0,000 for the
Bureau of Reclamation. General In
vestigations and Surveys was allot-
ted 100000. or twice the amount
stipulated by the House, and the
Payette division Of the Boise pro-
ject was given an increase of $780,
900 over the House figure of 500 ,000
Central Valley in California received
an increase of $7.60O.OOO to make
S23,6O0. 900 available for that project
in 1941. The Bureau received a total
of SS.772.000 from the reclamation
fund, and s43,S5O,000 from the gen
eral fund. These additions while
only a small part Of the whole indi-
