Ask U. N. Entry Into Palestine

NEW YORK, Andrei A. Grom- yko, Soviet representative to the United Nations, called on Britain last night for prompt admittance to Palestine of the U. N. special commission set up to supervise partition of the Holy Land.
 The Russian official, speaking at dinner of the American com mittee of Jewish writers, artists and scientists, said it was reported the British planned not to admit the U. N. commission until Brit ish troops are withdrawn from considerable areas-May 1 or June l, l948."
 Such a situation cannot be con- sidered as normal" Gromyko said.

Metcalf Sees $7OO,OOO For
 Roads In l948


 the l948 season and Well-round- ed program will be worked out for the seasons operations between now and next March, it was an nounced by Frank A. Metcalf, Ter ritorial Highway Engineer, direc- tor of the Alaska Highway Partol and superintendent of public works.
 This is substantially higher than the normal sum available for Alaska's share in road and airport construction, improvements and maintenance, MT. Metcalf pointed out.
 He assigned two major reasons for this condition.
 1-The special gasoline sales tax, and
 2-The widely publicized "stop order" of the Territorial Board of Administration which last spring ''froze $48O,OOO of rold funds set up for the Roads Department for use this year.
 During his visit here and at Fairbanks, he discussed possible projects with local residents and with officials of the Alaska Road Commission. Included in the local discussions were number of ac- cess roads tying in mining areas and agricultural regions with ex- isting highway systems, and number of pending airfield pro- jects in the Anchorage district, on Kenai Peninsula, and the Alaska Peninsula.
 eff the 1947 legislature had not refused to pass enabling legislation submitted to it, which would have made it possible for the Territory to participate in the national Air port air act of Congress, we would have been eligible to receive ten thousand dollars this year for air port construction and improve ments. AS is now the case, the civil aeronautics board has ruled that we can't legally receive allot- ments from the national funds and that position will probably stop us from getting our share of the l948 allocations," MT. Metcalf declared.
 The highway chief endorsed the bill in the national House of Rep resentatives to extend the Federal Aid Highway to Alaska. Alaska is the only unit under the United : States flag that is denied such as siStance and we have been work | ing for more tha na quarter of century to. remedy this condition" he pointed out. Under the terms of the recently introduced measure, which carries an appropriation of $11,373,700 and specifically pro- videS for a road to connect An chorage and Seward, the Territory would be required to put up matching fund of only 10 per cent. The measure also provides that the Congress shall annually pro- vide not less than $7,000,000 for Federal aid in highway construc- ton and maintenance in the Ter ritory.
 Under such a system, all Federal funds for expenditure on Alaska roads and highways would be ad- ministered by the public roads ad ministration. The measure now pending in the national House pro- | T IL \

snare that wary bachelor, ask him
in for a dinner featuring Armenian
rice with chicken livers, pr spa
ghetti with a special chicken liver
sauce. The bets are that you'll land
him, hook, line and sinker.
Get about IL chicken hvers and
brown them quickly in 4 tablespoons
butter. Take the livers from the
pan, and to the butter remaining
add 2 tablespoons chopped onion
and q crushed Glove of garlic. Cook
about 2 minutes. Then add a quar-
ter cup mushrooms-canned will do
and cook for minute longer. Toss
in ~ cups rice tuncooked. COOK
for 8 minutes and add tablespoons

TheChef
Says

In the old days the art of cooking
fish reigned pre-eminent at Pru.
nier's In Paris, and later In London.
Mussels were always Prunier
speciality and many Americans who
had scorned them In markets in
this country became ardent mussel
men U'm sorry-I just couldn't help
| it, after sampling them at the
famous French restaurant.
There they even employed a spe-
cial method for persuading the mus
sells to open. They scraped them,
brushed them, washed them in sew
eral waters. and then, for about
81 pints of mussels they added 2
onions, finely chopped, several
sprigs Of parsley. sprig of thyme.
a bay leaf. pinch of freshly ground
pepper and 8 tablespoons of white
wine. These were all put together
in q pot and a tight cover put on.
The pot was put over a quick fire
and shaken hard at the end of two
minutes. The shaking was repeated
several times during the five or six
minutes OF cooking. Then the mus
sells were found to be wide open and
ready to be used in various ways.
One liked especially was BRO
CHETTES DE MOULES AMIRAL.
Here the russels, removed from
their shells, were egged and bread
crumbed. each wrapped in thin
strip of bacon and b-oiled on
skewers for just few minutes.
MOULES A LA MARINIERE are
the most famous Of all - and the
simplest. They consist of mussels
opened as above and then served
on the half shell, with melted butter
and lemon juice.
There are, among gourmets, plenty
Of good American recipes for pre-
pairing mussels-not all the kudos
need go to Prunier's. On Long
Island, for instance, they make q
MUSSEL SOUP that is out of this
world. Open the mussels as direct
e6-and save the broth that is in
the pot. Shell the mussels-youm
need about so of them-into q plats
and set aside. In saucepan put
3 tablespoons good olive oil, let 1t
heat through, then add the white
part of a leek. minced. and let cook
until golden brown. Add the pot
liquor from the mussels and enough
water to make almost quart OF
liquid. Add half pound raw rice
and cook until rice is tender. Add
the whole mussels, boil one minute
more, season with freshly ground
black pepper and serve at once.

Cinnamon Buns

Cfunau Buns
"Up in Maine" or Down East,
whichever way you term it, they
have a special way Of making Gin
namon buns that is well worth your
attention.
First, boil 8 medium potatoes
then mash them and add 2 cups OF
sugar, 2 cups of milk, one yeast
cake and enough flour to make a
light batter. Let rise for two or
three hours until light, then add
cup of melted butter, four we'll
beaten eggs and enough flour to
make the dough easy to knead. Let
rise again until light. Roll out to
quarter-inch thickness, spread with
softened butter and plenty of CHINA
mon and sugar. Roll up and cut
of in 11z Inch slices. Place a dis
lance apart in a buttered pan, sprin-
kle with a little sugar and bake for
40 minutes in a hot oven. These
are oozy and sticky and just like
the buns one remembers from child
hood days.

There's something about eating
: out-of- doors" says Mary Spangler,
'that people seem to enjoy. They
let their hair down and really relax.
It's easier on me, too, because out
doors everything is very informal
and I don't have to worry over all
the trappings of formal dinner"
When you see the handsome out
door kitchen the Spanglers have in
their back garden you don't wonder
they love to invite their friends to
share it with them. Maybe the fact
that Raymond and Mary Spangler
are engaged in the field of agri-
culture and home economics, both
as vocation and as an avocation,
has a great deal to do with their
interest in food and its preparation.
Raymond is a marketing specialist
in the United States Department of
Agriculture and Mary is home
management specialist On the home
economics staff at Woodrow Wilson
High School. So, YOU see, both OF
them being specialists in their own
chosen fields, its only natural that
when they put their heads together
something "extra-special' would be
forthcoming.
They designed this barbecue klGch-
en- themselves and then had it built
according to their own speciflca-
tions; the results. as you can see,
are really pretty unusual and very
elegant.
There's none of that "back-
breaking" bending over to do when
RAYMOND swings into his role OF
chef because the cooking grill is
three feet high, it's wide enough
to give them ample heating and
cooking surface to accommodate
good-sized crowds. On each side OF
the grill is a buffet counter per
feet for serving) while under the
counters are large storage cabinets,
one side for wood and the other
sidesfor cooking utensils.
One of the Spanglers' favorlte
outdoor dinners, and the one you
see them preparing, consists OF
chilled tomato juice, grilled indi-
vidual steaks brushed with famous
barbecue sauce, hashed brown pota-
toes, fresh garden beans (the garden
Is lust back of the fireplace, Incl
dentany). nodded salad, hot rolls,
lemon chiffon pie and loads OF good
fragrant coffee. All the cooking.

three onions, sliced, in about ;
tablespoons of butter. While thai
is going on, pound the meat well
and then brown the pieces in the
fat with the onion. Have ready II
raw potatoes, peeled and sliced, and
put alternate layers of meat, po-
tatoes and onions in big kettle
The bottom and top layers should
be potatoes. Season lavishly with
salt and pepper. Run little water
into the frying pan and pour the
resulting liquid over the contents
Of the kettle. Now, add half q cup
of beer-more II the stew looks too
dry-cover the pot and simmer for
about hours. You may have to
add more water or beer during
the cooking time.
