CUSTARD.
From Mrs. E.. S. L., Wdshtngton.)
For Mrs. D. G. M, Alexandria ::
There are so many possible causes
of failure in baking custards. I have
found the following recipe almost
foolproof, and the custards are de-
licious and perfect in texture.
Scald one pint of milk in a
double boiler. Add hot milk mix
ture to 3 slightly beaten eggs, to
which have been added quarter
cup sugar and one-eighth teaspoon
salt. Strain the mixture, flavor
with vanilla or nutmeg, and pour
into baking molds. Place cups in a
pan of hot water, and bake in a
moderate oven 1926 degrees for IS
minutes or until firm. Test for
sufficient cooking by inserting knife
into custard. For variation, place
little caramel sirup in bottom of
each mold, and this will serve as a
sauce if the custard is unmolded
before serving. My own favorite
is the chocolate custard, however,
which is made by adding to the
strained mixture one square of
melted chocolate and increasing the
sugar to a scant half cup. The
chocolate mixture does not mix
entirely before baking, I find. With
a topping of whipped cream, these
are really delicious. Recipe makes
! 6 cup custards.

1 ROME, Sept. 27.-Giuseppe Sara
gat, leader of Italy's Moderate So
cialists, was set to take the floor in
the Constituent Assembly today in
support Of vigorous leftist efforts to
unseat Premier Alcide de Gasperis
Christian Democratic government.
Communist Leader Palmiro Togli-
atti and Socialist Leader Pietro
Nenni opened the attack on the de
Gasperi cabinet yesterday with ac-
cusations that it was servile to the
United States and used police mea-
sures against the opposition.
| Debate on three motions of no.

was expected to continue for at least

Nenni Accuses De Gasperi.
MIR. Nenni opened the debate yes
terday with an accusation that De
Gasperi excluded Socialists and
Communists from his cabinet last
May "ostensibly because the United
States wanted it that way"
THE phrase: The United States
wants 1t that way is being used by
Italian politicians to cover their own
internal dirty politics." Mr.. Nenni
declared. "The same parties who up
to 1945 used to explain all their
actions by saying: Churchill wants
this or Churchill wants that today
are declaring: This is the will of the
United States"
A government spokesman, Foreign
Minister Carlo Sforza, challenged
him Immediately with the shout: IF
you can prove any instance, I will
resign Immediately"
Mr.. Togliatti accused Mr.. de Cas-
peri's interior minister of enforcing
Fascist statutes in forbidding leftists
to post manifestos depicting the gov
ernment as "the protector of specu-
lators." Mr.. de Gasperi denied the
charge.

shouted at Mr.. Togliatti: "Petkov,

was hanged in Sofia Tuesday. Mr..
Togliatti retorted: ..
IF in 1921 we had put Mussolini
to the wall, much would have been
spared Italy. At any rate, it's a

Legislation 10 Care
For Sick or Injured
Defendants Studied

A three-man committee OF court
and jail officials today was drafting
proposed legislation to provide for
disqualification of sick or injured de-
PENDANTS held in jail pending court
appearance.
Named during meeting called by
Municipal Court Judge George D.
Nelson, the committee is COM
prised Of Donald Clemmer, director
of the Department of Corrections;
Joseph Sanford, chief of the court
probation Office and Walter F..
Bramhall, chief clerk of Municipal
Court.
In addition to these officials, the
meeting was attended by Col. Curtis
A. Reid, District Jail superintendent;
Thomas A. Sard, executive assis-
tant to Mr.. Clemmer and DR.. Martin
Cannon, Jail physician.
Judge Nelson said all representa-
tives pledged full cooperation" and
immediate action to draw up pro-
posal whereby defendants and Gov
eminent witnesses alike could get
hospital treatment for more serious
injuries or illnesses ito get in shape"
for scheduled summons to court.
The jurist pointed out such treat
ment cannot be authorized by the
courts, according to an old opinion
prepared by the corporations coun-
sells office.
The question was raised two weeks
ago in a case in which badly beat
en- wife came before Judge Nelson
and accused her husband of assault
ing her. Noting her weakened con.
dition the judge ordered her held
as. a Government witness and recon-
mended immediate hospital treat
ment of her injuries.
1t was pointed out, however, that
since she had been ordered held as
a witness the woman was sent to
District Jail instead of a hospital
Judge Nelson said the question
OF providing suitable quarters for
Government witnesses arose during
the meeting as side issue" He
said the law forbids sending such
witness to Jail and that the only
other alternative is to provide a hotel
room under guard by police.
