Of her iron corn stick pan I would
suggest that she try boiling the

REQUESTED by M. M. c., Arlington.j
I have been enjoying this column
for some time and would appreciate
an answer to my questions very
much.
My recipe for meringue is one
tablespoon sugar to each egg white.
Spread the meringue over the pie
then place in a slow oven for 20 to
Is minutes to brown. When the
pie cools small beads of amber COL
ored liquid appear on top of the
meringue. How can I avoid this
and what causes it?
Another question: In making to-
mato preserves how can I keep them
a pretty bright red? Mine become
80 dark and lose the pretty color
which makes them so appetizing.

Uncertain Welcome
Awaits 5forza, Long
Absent From Ita|v
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, Oct. 18.-An Algiers
broadcast last night said Count
Carlo Sforza, Italian foreign minis
ter of the Fascist era, would
leave there soon to confer with
Premier Pietro Badoglio's govern
ment, but advices from Italy indi-
Gated he might receive an uncertain
welcome.
An Associated Press dispatch
quoted Marshal Badaglio as telling
an interviewer last week that he
had read of proposals by Sforza to
recruit an Italian army of liberation
on a Cromwellian model and COM
menting:
Il think Sforza has been too long
absent from Italy to have any great
following. I know Sforza we'll. -
He is a great personality, but to
know people you must remain and
live among them
Received by Murphy.
Sforza, for years an exile in the
United States and elsewhere outside
Italy, reached Algiers Saturday
after a stopover in London en- route
from New York
An Algerian dispatch said Count
Sforza was received before his de-
parture today by Robert Murphy,
United States representative in
North Africa. and Harold MacMll-
Ian, British Minister. He previously
had seen Gen. Charles de Gaulle
and Rene Massigh, French commits
sioner of foreign affairs.
Radio France in AlgierS. in a
broadcast last night recorded by
the Federal Communica tions Com
mission, quoted him as saying that
IF King Victor Emmanuel and
Badoglio are animated by a deter
mination to carry on sincere stru2-
gle against Germany, have decided
to place my influence at the service
of such a movement
Will Help Till End Of War.
A dispatch from italian headquar-
ters in Italy quoted Badoglio AS say
ing last week in an interview pub
lished in the British 9Th Army
News:
The principle that Italian troops
are to help in driving the Germans
from Italy will be honored. Our
cola boration will extend to the end
of the war. Italian troops will be
sent to other parts of Europe if re-
ouired when the Germans are out
of Italy
In reply to a question whether he
thought there was danger of Com
munism" in Italy, Badoglio declared
the Allies must help us, in the press
and in propaganda, so that Com
munism does not stand chance
Another Associated Press dispatch
from Southern Italy dealing with
the Italian political situation said
that a leading newspaper in Bari,
with approval of Badoglio's chief
censor, had published an editorial
urging Italy's union with France in
a new International Latin bloc that
eventually might be Joined by Spain.
