amendments In the House, but sup
porters were hoping the bill had
weathered its worst storm yester-
day when they:
Defeated by a vote of lat to 81
the motion of Representative Smith,
Republican, of Wisconsin to cut 1t to
$500, 100000.
Turned back the move of Repre-
sentative Jonkman, Republican, of
Michigan, to slash 1t to $3.50, 900 900.
This was beaten I'll to 78.
The House also turned a deaf ear
to the plea of Representative Mer-
row, Republican, of New Hampshire,
to raise the authorization to $661,-
100000.
Funds for Asia Included.
As 1t came from committee week
ago the amount for France, Italy
and Austria already had been cut
from the administration estimate Of
s5s7 100000 to 100000. The
committee then added $4,000 ,O0(
which the State Department hao
not requested for China.

n1ittee felt the United States should
serve notice it is trying to stem
communism in Asia as well as Eu.
rope. The State Department hac
intended to submit a program fol
China later.
Representative Jarman, Democrat
Of Alabama friend Of the bill, will
propose today that the $4,000, ,00C
for China be taken out of the exist
ing foreign relief appropriation
made last May This would make
all Of the 100000 in the pending
bill available for France, Italy and
Austria-only 100000 less than
the Senate approved.
If the House passes the bill today
there will be only a week end lull
In the battle over foreign aid.
Fight to Be Repeated.
Next week the House will 60
through the same fight when the
Appropriations Committee brings
out q deficiency bill to provide the
FUNDS now being authorized. The
Appropriations Committee is not
bound to recommend the full
amount authorized and another ef-
fort to cut 1t is in prospect.
Although some amendments have
gone In the bill during the week
long struggle, the men in charge OF
it believe they have overcome thus
far all changes that would seriously
interfere with this Governments
aim to help tide the free states
of Europe through the winter ane
keep them from going Communist
Among amendments adopted yes
terday afternoon were:
Two to make certain that Com
munist groups in Europe will hav'
no part in carrying out the ait
program.
Congress Control Voted.
Authorizing joint congressional
committee to observe and advise
on the distribution Of the aid.
Repairing the recipient govern
ments to see that needy familie
get their fair share of the food.
A provision making it clear tina
the bill gives the President no do
mestic price control powers.
Biggest surprise of the debat
came late yesterday when Repre-
sentative Short. Republican, of Mis-
souri, made a forensic attack on tn
bill, asserting the more you Civ
people, the more they want, an,
they will curse you for not givin

Statement of R. z. Lewis

The editorial appearing in The Empire of March 10th leaves the impression that all the utihtes nad, during the period of the allowed their properties to down. having neglected to make necessary re- pairs The owner of the Juneau Water Works takes exception to the editorial in far it refers to the water plant. Since Pearl Harbol, several thousand feet of cast iron mains have been laid and other ln prOyements have been made, and the ordinary every day repairs have been taken of notwithstanding the war The figures recently appearing in The, Empire showed balance of $13O00 per available for the retirement of the Water Works bond issue, after allowing for depreciation and bond interest. So far as the Juneau Water Works is concerned there is need of any additional bond issue to furnish working capital, or for any other purpose
 In order that the voters may be fully advised as to the facts the following is submitted for sderation.
 The Black & Veatch appraisal of the Juneau Water Works gave the reproduction cost new being S327 082, while the reproduction cost new, less de- preciation, was given being $227 S96, about S18,OOo more than the price asked by the owner of the water plant Mayor Parsons himself, employed Black & Veatch to make the appraisal which he as Ex-Mayor, finds fault with Report of operations of the Water Works for 1945 shows gross receipts of $31,764 Expenditures at Juneau $19496. This figure includes office expense S1258, salaries S5952 taxes S4336, rent $500, tctal of 446 At least $10,000 of this expense could be eliminated, the City organization could take the Water Works bookkeeping and collecting department and would have to pay $4336 taxes An additional saving would be made by the elimination of the 5000 management salary received by R. F. Lewis, the owner, and S1 0O0 other expense incurred at San Francisco The report also shows balance of $32S9 after deducting depreciation charges Thus there would be total of S19289 per year available for retirement of bonds and interest Municipal bonds have been selling low as 112%. Allowing 3ee for Juneau Revenue bonds the total interest $2100o0 would be S6300 leaving S13O00 per year for retirement of the bond issue.

Food Section!

Readers will find in this issue of the Chronicle-Star
and Advertiser, on pages 2, 3, 4, and 5 of the second sec
ton, a display of grocery and related advertisements
which mark the beginning of a new Food Section, as a
feature of interest and convenience to advertisers and to
housewives charged with the responsibility of preparing
the family menu.
Because the Mississippi Coast area has a rich ana
varied tradition of food preparation and hospitality,
drawing from such famous culinary traditions as the New
Orleans French Cooking and the cooking of the planta-
tons and the farm kitchens of Mississippi, we feel that
menus of interest and usefulness to the general public
can be contributed by readers for publication in the new
Food Section.
For this reason the Chronicle-Star and Advertiser
shall inaugurate in the next issue a weekly menu contest,
offering prizes of So, So, and 81, for the best menus sub
mitted to the newspapers each week. The menus are to
be for a single favorite dish and these will be judged by
a committee of local women.
If you are interested in economics, selection, and pre-
paration of food, and desire to swap your own favorite
recipes for those of other cooks and households, send in
your entry in the menu contest this week to the Chronicle
Star.
