placed under the A-3 priorities class lfication, Nelson informed Gov. Gruening. This is preferred rat ing, it is understood, and the high est classification awarded to any material not of actual first-line needs in national defense.
 The announcement by Nelson eliminated a fight of several weeks duration waged by the Governor to have the mining machinery given preferred priority rating, so mining operations in Alaska may continue and expand during the present national emergency.
 The order effects all gold mining machinery. including equipment re- quired for placer gold operations
 The OPM order also comes as 8 distinct relief to mine operators who have been acutely worried concerning orders of needed equip ment for their operations. Several meetings of mining men have been held in the Interior during recent weeks to organize mining operators in a move to have a preferred priority rating given mining mach inery. Previously, the mine equip ment was given no priority rating under OPM rulings.
 
 Under authority vested in him by the order from Nelson today, Gov. Gruening named B. D. Stewart, Territorial Commissioner of Mines, as emergency coordinator of AL aska mines. Stewards duties, he said, will be to aid operators in se- curing legitimate machinery re- quirements for their operations and to equalize the distribution of av- ailable equipment among mining operations needing the machinery.

Pantry Palaver

Chefs Hints: A grand accompani-
ment to ham or fried chicken is baked
bananas. Select slightly green ones
for baking. Peel, arrange in baking
dish, brush with butter, salt, and
sprinkle with brown sugar and bake
until tender.
To make omelets more fluffy, use
fresh eggs that have been allowed to
warm to room temperature. A half
cup of cracker crumbs soaked in n
cup of milk, and / tablespoon of but
ter will take the place of an extra egg
or two in four-egg omelet. Besides
making your omelet go farther, the
crumbs give it body so that it is less
likely to fall.
A zestful and low-cost roast is ac-
complished by the addition of ripe
olives. Form a pocket in a 3-pound
breast of veal and rub inside with salt,
pepper and nutmeg. Make dressing
of cooked rice combined with 2s cup
ripe olives, " cup diced celery, Y cup
