PORTLAND, ME-, IS
 SEEKING HOMES
Shipyard Workers Filling City; Housing Declared
 National Scandal

Portland Me, Aug. (UP)- The Portland Chamber of Con- merce appealed today for immediate construction of at least 5000 hous- ing units to accommodate a pro- posed increase in personnel at two South Portland shipyards.
 William c. A. Willman, chamber secretary, said the housing situation in greater Portland would become "a national scandal' unless action were taken to accommodate the 13,000 more men which the yards plan to hire. Another crisis would arise, he said, when persons re- turn from summer homes to oust war workers temporarily occupying their residences.
 Resident Engineer Frank E. Wall of the U. S. Maritime Commission said the shipyards-the Todd Bath Iron Shipbuilding Corp. and the South Portland Shiphuilding Corp. were straining under a great man. power shortage and could use at least 13,00O more workers, bringing the total employed there to more than 10000.

Lynn Says:

Trying to tackle the winter
vegetable problem? Here's a pa
rade of suggestions that win prop
up your meals:
Baked squash with small white
onions baked in the hollow. A
bit of cream sauce added just be-
fore serving to the onions will
also perk up this dish. Sprinkle
with paprika for color.
Carrots: glaze these with
brown sugar and butter when
baking. For cooked carrots add
q bit of fairness with lemon juice.
Serve canned or cooked lima
beans with this smart mustard
sauce: 4 tablespoons butter mixed
with " teaspoon sugar, I tea
spoon ground mustard and 2 TIA
blespoons lemon juice.
Beets like to be teamed up
with Harvard sauce. Thicker
the beet liquid with ccrnstarch
and add a bit of grated orange
rind and juice for delightful vari-
alton.
Sprinkle cooked asparagus with
grated Swiss cheese and brown
under the broiler.
Parsnips: parboil these, then
dip in egg and bread crumbs.

Tasrnips: cook and mash. Sea-
son with butter, salt and pepper
