PRESSURE COOKER2
FAVORITE RECIPE;
m,ECTRIC RADIATOR,

from Mrs. p. I. D., Washington.
Can any one advise me in regard
to purchasing q pressure cooker,
best kind to buy and how to use
them for cooking food?
May I suggest to the readers OF
RICH that each one send in their
favorite recipe and will gladly send
in mine for Fashioned Straw
berry Shortcake. 1t is delicious. I
am sure every one has favorite
recipe and 1t Is usually something
unusual-extra good!
Electric radiator: To Mrs. T. O.
D., Oakland, Md.-You have already
received considerable information in
regards to heating your house with
electric radiators, except operation
costs. It costs cents and a frac-
ton per hour in D. G. and there Is
some noise like water boiling during
operation.

To Mrs. 8. j. D., Washington, re-
garding covering grease spots on
wallpaper with water paint. We
had this experience, only the grease
was In the plaster. A light coat
of shellac, either white or orange
and then covered with a prime coat
of the water paint before the full
coat is applied. will solve the
problem. If this measure is not
taken, the grease will soon come
through the nice new coat Of paint

To Mrs. J. F., Washington, re-
garding the care Of parquet floors
We have had them in our apart

them clean Is an electric sweeper
Ours is tank-type cleaner and we
use the floor brush with very salts
factory results. We have them
waxed twice year, using good
quality paste wax. However. in ap-
plying the wax, care should be
taken that bits Of wax are not left
between the blocks as this tends
to collect the dust and make ugly
dark smears. BY using the brush
attachment on the sweeper often
you keep a bright luster on the

Now may I offer couple OF sug.

tions about cooking rice. I have
found that rice cooked in the mod

to the method described in the cook

none had survived. His news was
broken to score of relatives of the
passengers, who silently awaited the
inevitable at the Leesburg Inn.
One of those to reach the scene
said the airliner apparently skidded
up the steep mountainside for about
$50 feet after it hit. The left wing
almost whole, was lodged near the
foot of the rectangular clearing
caused by the crash-about 100 yards
long and 200 feet wide. The tail as

Identification Experts Assigned.

perts to the little chapel that will
serve as a mortuary and Quinn
Tamm, an inspector in the identi-
fcation bureau, said he hoped to
verify the passenger list with fin
gerprints.
Offering support to those who
searched in a drenching rain this
morning, Red Cross workers set up
tent and established a canteen
on Route 9, the highway linking
Charles Town, Hillsboro and Lees
burg
It was off this highway that the
rescue parties turned onto a trail
SO rough that only jeeps could pro-
ceed along it. The road started at
a point known as Mount Mission,
near Hillsboro, and ran south to q
point where the searchers were
forced to abandon it and start a
four-hour trek from the widest of
growth.
In the party with Mr. Stone were

LEESBURG, Va, June 14.-The
FBI set up flngerprint equipment in
the little cemetery chapel here to-
night, hopeful of as good a record
identifying the dead in the nearby
PCA-Capital Airlines crash as it
had in a similar crash seven years
ago.
Quinn Tamm, inspector in the
identification division, recalled he
and other experts succeeded in
identifying all 25 persons who died
in crash near here in August, l940.
One of the victims was Senator
Lunden of Minnesota.
Pointing out that he and his as
sistants had brought fingerprints OF
persons having the same names as
those on the passenger list, Mr.
Tamm said he believed they would
have "very good success" in identity
ing the bodies. Labels on clothing
and laundry marks also will help
with the work, he said.
One of the first bodies brought in
to the chapel morgue carried wrist
Identification marked u. Kaufman. "
In Chicago, J. Julian kaufman, 80,
was identified as a former Army
captain aboard the airliner en- route
to Durham N. c., to visit his mother
in a hospital.
Robert Quick, 1857 Twenty-eighth
street, South, Arligton, credited a
luke box with saving his life. A
mechanic with Capital Airlines, he
was in Pittsburgh and booked for a
flight on the Inflated plane. He was
in the airport restaurant drinking a
cup of coffee when the planes de-
parture was announced. He didn't
hear it over the noise of the juke
box.
