Leader Says His People Now
Have Nothing to Work For
Son Of Arob King Likes America
Because II Is So Far Awoy

ter this war. the United Nations
will deal with us in the spirit OF
the Atlantic Charter. -
Why isn't Arabian the official
language in Lebanon? Why can t
Arabian engineers get jobs in
their own countries? Why can't
Arabians attend universities in
some countries? These and
many other similar questions
we're raised by the Prince in a
strikingly gentle yet determined
tone of voice.
IF we Arabs were sovereigns
in our own countries, we could
build up our countries, improve
education facilities and the con-
ditions of Duh peoples. Surely
we who gave the world algebra,
alchemy and other sciences,
should contribute more than we
are allowed to do TO the better
ment of our fellow-men.
Take the United States. See
what she has given the world
since she won her independence.
Compare her influence on world
affairs with what it was before
she was recognized as being cap
able of self-government.
People don't seem TO under
stand that the average Arab to-
day has nothing to work for,
For this reason often you come
up against apathy in our coun-
tries. The only interest in the
life of the average Arabian is
his longing for independence. We
Arabs want that with all our
hearts. And you can take it
rfrom me, the Arab will rise
again and again, as he has done
in the past, until he achieves it.
And when we take our rightful
place among the independent
nations of the world, Arabians
will contribute their due share
toward making the world bet
ter place TO live in"
After the Romans, the Arabs
for the world in science, build
ing and other arts until the Mid.
die Ages, when conquest
brought decadence and with it
loss of liberty.
Give the Arabs chance, and
they will come back" he add
ed, 1--WE need Western guild
ance and help and we are glad
to have it. But we also want to
be allowed to live our own lives
in the way we choose, as all SOW
ereign nations do"
1t is because the United States
has done so much disinterested
good in Arabia that she is so
popular there, concluded the
Prince:
Although the United States
has never tried to colonize is,
Americans have built many of
our finest universities and hospi-
tails. For more than 80 years
now, they have helped Arabians
TO educate themselves. For this
and other reasons we like them"
He smiled, motioning that the
interview was at an end, and
with a knowing twinkle in his
eyes: Maybe one reason is that
your land is so far away from
ours"

Swedish Pastry Recipes

A reader Of this column writes in
to ask us, wistfully, If we know Of
any recipes for Swedish pastry"
that may be made in these butter
less days? She continues to say that
in the past she found all Of the best
sweets of this sort required shock
ing amount of butter and are there
fore ruled out for the present.
Well, of course, most Swedish
pastry did call for great deal Of
butter. The fine butter of Sweden
found its way to the highest priced
markets in Europe and, indeed, all
over the world. So they could use
all the butter they wished In their
own baking-they had plenty Of 1t.
But, believe it or not, there were a
great many wonderful sweets Of the
pastry type that did not include even
a smidgen of butter In their recipes!
Take, for instance, the delightful
little almond meringue circles, so
popular with connoisseurs Of Swed-
ish food. To make about 10 Of them
calls for only 2 whites of eggs,
cup of powdered sugar, 6 ounces of
blanched almonds and n teaspoons
lemon juice. The almonds are faxed
the day before they are to be used
and left to dry overnight. This is
important, as they must be thor
oughly dry.
The whites. sugar and lemon juice
are combined-if you are short on
lemons, use vanilla, but 1t won't be
so good-in mixing bowl and beat
en- until stiff, when the almonds are
added, folded lightly in. The mix
ture is shaped with two spoons in
small mounds on a creased baking
sheet tuse margarine for this). Then
the meringues are baked in a slow
oven about 25 minutes or until light
brown, firm outside and soft on the
inside.
And then, there are the wonderful
Swedish crullers, and the Swedish
rosettes-you will need a special iron
to make the latter, of course.
To make the crullers, beat l egg,
3 egg whites and 4 cup of sugar un-
til just smooth-no longer, please!
Now add the grated rind of half a
lemon and little more than y cup
sifted flour. Stir until smooth. Heat
the cooking fat in a deep kettle to
the proper temperature for dough-
nuts. Pour the batter into a funnel
one of stiff paper will do-and
force the batter into the hot fat In
a stream. to give a lacy effect.
You will find that the cruller
tends to spread out toward the
sides of the kettle, so you can fry
only one at a time. Turn the cruller
to brown it on both sides. Then
when it is done drain it and lay
it over a rolling pin to give it the
professional crescent shape. Dust
it lightly with powdered sugar and a
little cinnamon just before serving.
The rosettes are a bit more COM
plicated, but should be successful
if the iron and the fat are kept at
a constant temperature The batter
Is made by beating eggs with 2
teaspoons of sugar for several min

or a good punch, and with it all the
goodies such as scones, tarts and
turn-overs.
Years ago, visits between friends
were few because of distance, today
they are few because of busy work
schedules. For the latter reason the
most popular time for entertaining
Is after dark. A buffet supper
would be both restful and pleasant
for your tired guests. A simple,
menu is best. Your
old standby "Mr. Casserole" comes
in handy here, for 1t helps eliminate
a lot Of last-minute fuss, and leaves
you time to greet your friends. You
might use this occasion to set q
colorful table with checked table
cloth or perhaps one Of those gay
floral patterned ones with matching
napkins. With this your wooden

set of peasant dishes, by all means
use these. Instead of flowers as the
centerpiece, how about an arrange

tables and nuts2 Make the key

pitality.
Punch is also the ideal beverage
for your holiday from 8 on" party.
Serve 1t thoroughly chilled In
large bowl with matching cups. If
you're not already the possessor of
bowl, any number can be found
for various prices. among them some
of milk glass, others of deep ruby
crystal, and the handsome silver
ones. Serve tiny sandwiches or
cakes on lazy Susan" dish.
A portable bar made of wood and

party equipment. This accommo-

canters, stirrers and other items.
1t comes with a folding rack and
can be placed in any spot in the
room. If this type of party is your
choice, potato chips, popcorn and
pretzels served in attractive wooden
bowls, with the name of the snacks
printed on them, are excellent ac-
compartments to the "potables."

to retire from business they would
have something pleasant to re-
tire on.
We should cultivate as many out
side interests as possible against
the hour when our family ties are
broken. One of the most pitiful
mistakes that women make Is in
letting the four walls of home bound
their universe, being so obsessed by
their children that they have no
life outside OF them. Then, when
their children marry and go about
the business of life on their own
account, the mothers are left deso-
late and broken hearted.
Every woman with grain Of in
telligence in her head knows that
when she goes to live with her mar
ried children she is menace to
their marriage, and that she is not
wanted by her in-laWs. Yet, know
ing this, mothers who have ample
money on which to live apart in
flict themselves on their children,
because they have no other interest
in life except their children.
How much wiser it would be if
every mother would look forward
to the day when her children will
leave her and prepare for 1t by
keeping alive her own individuality
and her interest in all the manifold
activities Of this fascinating world
Of ours.
We should lay up beautiful men,
ories, memories of happy hours,
memories Of travel memories of
those we have loved, memories of
good books, memories that will fill
the long hours when we sit in the
twilight, with eyes too dim to read,
thinking of the dear, dead days that
are gone.
Begin now, while you are young,
to lay up spiritual riches for your
old age.
Evening star., 1944-12-18
Dorothy Dix Says

When we consider the Importance
of providing for our old age, we al
ways think in terms Of money.
Money is important, but it is not
enough. We have other needs that
are just as great as our physical ones
and unless We provide against these
IN our youth, We are just as misera-
BILE and unhappily dependent on
others In our old age, We are just as
much parasites as we would be If,
when we were young and vigorous
and making money, We had neglect
ed to put aside a nest egg upon
which to live when We were old.
A long time ago Talleyrand ad-
vised every one to learn how to play
good game of whist in youth so
that they might not pass an old age
of boredom. Which is to say that
when We are young We should all
learn how to play, and keep the play
spirit alive in us against the time
when We shall sit with idle hands,
our work done, and yawn ourselves
into the grave unless we know how
to amuse ourselves.
And, little as we suspect it, we have
to learn how to play when we are
young. We can no more acquire the
art after We are middle-aged than
We can Of doing the jitterbug with
verve and abandon. The bones of
our habits have become too stiff. In
proof, whereof, observe the misera-
BILE, rich old men, who, too old to
work. are doing penance on golf links
and dragging about resorts, shedding
tears of boredom at every step as
they try to amuse themselves, and
who find the days endless because
they have nothing interesting to do.
How much better for them If they
had played little more and worked
a little less as they went along, so
that when the time came for them

edges gently with a fork, so the
rosette will drop off to drain on
absorbent paper. Fry the rest of
the rosettes the same way. Be sure
to keep the batter cool and stir 1T
occasionally to keep it from settling
and, above all, maintain constant
temperature for the iron and the
fat The rosettes are busted with
powdered sugar before serving or
they may be used as a base for
crushed fruits as a dessert in their
own right.
While these three dainties are not
the butter pastry we associate with
Sweden of the old days they are
wonderful pinch hitters for those
peacetime goodies.

Party Prettinesses

Let's plan now to do all the odds
and ends of arranging and refur-
bishing the house so that during the
holidays we may be free to put out
the welcome" sign for our friends
Instead of one large party this
year, why not plan to have several
informal gatherings either in the
afternoon or evening? With a Sc
ries of small events you can enter
tain more friends and perhaps carry
out the Welcome to Washington"
theme by inviting a newcomer or
two, or a few service people.
Despite rationing, it is still pos
sible to arrange afternoon teas, buf-
fet suppers or even brunch. For
the latter, set your table as a buff
fet, and as to the menu, serve pam
cakes or waffies with plenty Of sirup

If I may, in regards to recipe for

In making these creams, if cocoa
butter is used in coating instead of
