BAKED BEANS.

CheDy Chase.
A newcomer to this section. have
been reading The Evening Star and
do enjoy the Readers Clearing
House SO much.
In the evening when your dinner
dishes are done, take cups pea
or Navy beans, wash and cover with
cold water cat least Q inches over
beans). Soak all night. In the
morning bring slowly to a boil, let
simmer. Test few beans in spoon
by gently blowing on them. If suf-
ficiently cooked, the skins will burst.
Actual cooking time will be about
40 minutes. Drain, put in earthen-
ware casserole Or bean pot. Press
Y pound fat salt pork into beans.
Mix tablespoon salt. u tablespoon
dry mustard, 2 tablespoons -molas-
ses and 2 tablespoons granulated
sugar. Add IA cups boiling water
and pour over beans. Cover. and
place in oven tightly covered and
bake from 6 to hours. Keep add
ing water every hour or so. Beans
will simmer in water to just below
surface. The last hour, remove
cover. 1t is the long, slow cooking,
with small quantities OF boiling
water added from time to time
that really turns out good pot of
beans.
If all are not used at one time,
cool and then put pot in refrigera-
tor, and when wanted again, simply
put back in oven and heat.

BROWN SUGAR.
(Thdnks to A. W.,

Re: Brown sugar which has be-
come too hard to measure or break.
Several solutions have been given
to keep brown sugar so it can be
measured, but don't believe I have
read how to get 1t in condition for
use without waiting some time after
1T has been put in can with apples
and what-have-you.
I have softened brown sugar for
immediate use and stored it in tin
can with tight lid on it to keep 1t
from getting hard again.
Take the sugar out of the box
tear box away If no other way-and
place the sugar in a pan and set
1t in warm oven, not hot, watch
1t and as soon as it will crumble
from the hard sugar take a spoon
and crumble 1t away. Will only
take a few minutes and 1t is ready
to measure and store away. Let
cool before storing in a tight con-
tainer.

ON THE CAPITALS CUFF

headache is moving toward show
down that is likely to come soon at
1900 Pennsylvania Avenue, n. w. in
this capital of nation at war. The
address is that of the Squire of Hyde
Park, the President, himself.
Two factors stand out to make this
speculation ON June % seem reason
ably safe:
1.-The new, compromised price con
troll extension bill just passed through
the congressional mill is at the White
House. Mr.. Roosevelt told reporters
that he hadn't seen it, but would call
i'm Justice James Byrnes,. Stabiliza-
ton Director Fred Vinson, and pos
sibly some cabinet people when he does
consider it.
In this connection it should be noted
that there is some heavy pressure
against the bill as passed from not
only the AFL and CiO, but from con-
sumer and buying groups as well. They
have informed the President that this

2-One of the controlling factors in
the national wage freeze policy has
been its reliance upon the Bureau of
Labor Statistics cost of living index
Now that the Presidents Committee
on the Cost of Living has received its
technical experts report denying that
the BIS index is, actually, a cost of
living, something must be done.
Not only that, but these experts
found the BIS figures too low by some
3 to ; points, which would advance
the BIS estimate to 26.4 or pa per
cent instead of an advance of only 23.4
per cent This is still far from the
mark of 43.5 per cent found by the
AFL-CIO report to he the increase in
living costs from January, 1941 to
December, 1913.

Where Blows

Some time ago there was q very

each bearing "a big bag of loot. Be

Is crying to the other, But the winds

Where blows the wind? The holo-
caust started as "A small blaze. Japan
moved into Manchuria. We shrugged
our shoulders and said that the fire

Almost Impossible Tasks
Performed BY Men Recruit
ed From Lubor's Runks

Washington, ID. c. ULNS). - The
Germans are learning about the Sea-
bees the same way the japanese did
the hard way. The Navy has now
revealed how the versatile Seabees
most of whom were recruited from
organized labor, constructed the many
L. $. Naval amphibious bases which
supported our forces attacking Nor
mandy.
In record time the Seabees took over
thousands of acres of British land,
occupied scores of harbors to turn
them into advanced amphibious opera
ting bases, supply depots and main
tenance units from which Il. S. naval
vessels carried the Allied Army to
European beaches.
Huge Task Accomplished
The first Seabees arrived in the
British Isles in the fall of 1912 In
less than Is months they constructed
and had ready the many bases which
were occupied by operational forces
carrying out the greatest amphibious
operation in all world history.
To accomplish this huge task, the

invented, originated, forged and even
created much of the materials with
which they threw up bases, docks
