BUDGET PLANp
(Requested by Mrs. w. w. B.,
Washington.)
I have been a constant follower of
the Readers Clearing House and IT
has been most helpful to me in the
past. Many of the items which have
appeared were of such interest to me
that I clipped them and sent them
to my mother and sister in my home
State.
I have a rather odd request to
make and hope you will be able to
assist me. Some of the ladies who
offer suggestions in your column for
home schedules, baby routines and
recipes seem to handle 1t all so eff
ciently that I wonder if any of them
have written you in the past IN re-
gard to the scheduling or budgeting
of finances?
I am the mother of two small boys
and besides the usual routine OF
housekeeping and managing them ]
also handle our financial affairs and
have felt should like to discuss this
particular phase of homemaking
with some other mother similarly
placed and who has worked out a
successful system.

Some time ago Mrs. F. E. l., Ken

pie. 1 imagine the following Is what
she wants, although I have always
known it as "Blitz Kuchen," or
lightning cake, in English.
Blitz Kuchen: u cup butter and
u cup sugar beaten together, 6 ia
blespoons milk, cup -four, n tea
spoons baking powder, Il teaspoon
salt, teaspoon vanilla.
Spread this batter in 4 Inch layer
cake pans. Cover with the following
meringue-4 egg whites and q cup
sugar. Sprinkle l cup chopped wal
nut meats over this and bake for 40
minutes in a 350-degree oven.
This can be put together in sew
eral ways. For less expensive des-
Sert, put the 2 layers together right
side up-which makes a meringue
filling and a meringue top. Or as
Mrs. F. E. I. suggests, put it together
with whipped cream and pineapple,
fresh strawberries or anything you
wish.

SUBSTITUTING SIRUP FOR

(ThankS to Mrs. r. S. R.,

I have not noticed an answer to
the question about substituting
sirup for sugar in candy and cook
les. 1 do not think the substitution
could be made in candy recipes, but
the following table is correct for
cookies and cake:
One cup corn sirup equals q cup
sugar with liquid reduced "a cup.
One cup strained honey equals l
cup sugar with liquid reduced u

One and a half cups maple sirup
equals l cup sugar with liquid

Do not reduce amount of sugar

Wall Street has grown increasingly
bullish since the results of the Crimean

reasons given in the financial district
for the markets strength, including the
fact that the trading element has stopped

Germany; favorable domestic news andS
the fact that the market eNceSses have
been almost nil.
All sections OF the list joined the rise

Utilities turned active with Columbia

"Stea! Shouted
In Armstrong
FIGHT With Slider
BY HAL WOOD

OAKLAND, Cal, Feb. l5 CUP)
Referee Billy Burke Thursday was
charged with deliberate steal i'll
awarding a decision to Chet Slider,
147-pound Fresno, California, Ne
gro, in his fight last night with
Henry Armstrong, 141, the former
triple champion.
The accusation was hurled by
George Moore, Armstrong; man.
ager, who asserted he would take
the case tC the California boxing
commission. If he fails to get action
there, Moore said, he will go direct
to Governor Earl Warren.
Il claim Burke made a deliberate
steal of that fight" Moore told re-
porters. III admit that Armstrong
got the benefit of the doubt in a
previous fight with Slider, which
was called a draw. But two wrongs
don't make a right and We'll take
this to the highest authorities for
investigation.
Il demand that Burke be re-
lieved of his referees license imme-
Qlateiy.
The rumpus was the result of
Burke's awarding a close fight tC
Slider. Using the California point
system, the United Press score sheet
showed Sc points for Armstrong, 54
for the young Fresno battler. But
on the round system, it ended with
three rounds tc each fighter, with
four being even.
