Departments

+ There are three separately or
ganized departments of County
government plus those other func-
tons not specifically allocated to
those three departments.
The Department of Finance is
headed by Director and his job
is to handle such affairs as assess
ment of property, collection of
taxes and other revenue, payment
Of bills, auditing accounts and
making financial reports which are
available to the public.
The Department of Public Works
is described only in skeleton form.
Originally the functions of this
Department were described in con-
Siderable detail but so many peo-
pie misunderstood the provisions
relating to the school system that
the material was rewritten to set
up the duties of this Department
broadly under general and local
law so that the County Council
would be guided and also limited
by law.
The Office of the County Attor-
ney is the third Department and
as that name implies this Depart
ment has the job of handling all
the legal business of the County.
ARTICLE v
Merit System
The merit system will be. admin
istered by the County Personnel
Board. Each member will be paid
$1,000 a day but not more than
100000 per year. The Board is
composed of three members APP
pointed by the Council for three
year terms. Their work includes
the classification of jobs, making
rules and regulations, holding ex-
aminations, supplying lists of
available personnel, and making
recommendations to the Council.
The results of their efforts must
he approved by the County Coun-
ell to become effective.
ARTICLE vi
Budgets
The County will operate on the
basis of an expense budget for
current business and a capital
budget for such items as new
roads, buildings, heavy equipment,
etc. The County Manager pre-
pares both budgets with the help
of the Departments and makes
recommendations to the County
Council which has the final author
ity as to their adoption.
ARTICLE VII
Centralized Purchasing
The County Manager either in
person or through an assistant has
the responsibility for buying sup
plies, material and equipment for
County use except that this service
is available to the County school
system only to the extent request
ed by the County Beard of Edu-
| cation.

Before any substantial number
Of families are displaced by clear
ance operations, every effort will
be made to increase the supply OF
rental housing. In fact, the
Authority is definitely on record
as opposing any clearance opera
ton that would eliminate any
substantial amount of housing
during the current acute shortage.
In anticipation Of any eventual
redevelopment work, however,
the Authority is proceeding to de-
termine the extent and nature of
blighted areas as it is required to
do by state law. For this purpose,
it is using a scientific survey
method, developed by the Ameri-
can Public Health Association.
About every third or fourth home
in a survey area is being carefully
examined and scored to indicate
not only unsatisfactory conditions
within the dwelling, but general
neighborhood conditions that
might render the dwelling unde-
sirable.
The Authority states that no
particular blocks have yet been
named as worst or subject to
clearance. Survey findings will
determine largely what corrective
methods will be used. 1t is likely
that some blocks well might re-
quire only mOdernization or elm
nation Of a few buildings, while
others might require complete re-
building. Still others might need
only major cleanup campaigns
and the reduction Of overcrowd-
ing by moving out some Of the
families that are doubled up with
others.
What Agency Can Do
The agency can acquire and re-
plan areas and make them avail
able TO private enterprise for re-
building, or II may retain an area
and rebuild II with IOw-rent pub
lie housing for families unable to
secure adequate housing in the
private market.
Mr.. Hoben emphasized that in a
study Of this nature, it is neces-
sary to include dwellings ranging
from poor to good, in order to
compare properly one home with
another, or one block with an
other. The Authority is particu-
larry anxious that the residents
of a study area understand that |

dwelling for study is not a refec-
ton on the owners or the occu-
pants Of that dwelling Further
more, the information that is
gathered is not identified by the
name of either the owner or the
occupant of a building
Public Hearings To Be Held
Any project for clearance and
rebuilding will be thoroughly
publicized before it is under
taken. The Minnesota Municipal
Housing and Redevelopment Act,
under which the Authority oper-
ates, lays down numerous safe
guards regarding the selection,
clearance, or rebuilding of any
area.
These safeguards include a re-
quirement that plans for a project
be reviewed by the City Planning
Commission, that the Authority
hold a public hearing prior to the
approval of any project, and, f.
nally, that a project be approved
by the City Council before it can
be carried out. The current sur
vey includes the collection of in
formation by a staff of four field
inspectors and the later scoring of
each dwelling unit, each building,
and each block by an office staff.
The field inspectors are regular
employees Of the Division Of Pub
lie Health who have been loaned
to the Housing and Redevelop-
ment Authority for survey work.
They carry proper credentials for
the protection of the public. BY
the end of October, field investi-
cation had been completed in IS
blocks in the first survey area. 1t
is hoped that both field and Office
work can be completed on this
area by the end Of the year, at
which time several other study
areas in the city will be selected.

Emmett Salisbury.
They are appointed by the

mony but In early Ireland it was the
custom of having q dinner before
the wedding At this time the of
ficiating priest would cut and serve
the "bridecake" In exchange for
suitable donations from the guests.
A more subtle way Of encouraging
wedding gifts was practiced on the
Isle Of Man. where guests contributed
to the breakfast held before the
wedding. These people also followed
the custom Of working up an ap-
petite by walking three times around
the church before attending the fes-
tivities.
Years back wedding cakes used to
be Of the fruit variety; they were
dark, full of nuts and fruits and
made weeks and weeks before the
appointed day In order to have time
to mellow and ripen. In fact, it's
only within the last 80 years that
the cake for this special occasion
has become the towering white mas

TheChef
Says

Are you familiar with hearts of
palm to use in salads and other
dishes? They are delicate and sue
culent and make a welcome change
in the average menu. The best
come in tins from Brazil, but less
expensive varieties may be found IN
the shops, which come from nearer
home. However, If you can afford
the imported ones, they are well
worth the extra cost.
The hearts Of palm are the creamy
inside Of the young shoots and buds
Of several types Of palms, but the
imported one usually come from the
cabbage palm. The "roll" Of palm
meat is very fragile and its layers
separate very easily. Therefore, 1t
must be handled with care in prepa-
ration.
For use in salads, chill the tins
Of palm heart for several hours In
the refrigerator. The simplest salad
of all and, to me, one Of the best
consists Of the chilled hearts ar
ranged on crisp, dried lettuce leaves
and served with = very tart French
dressing.
But if you want to 60 glamorous,
cut the chilled hearts carefully into
round slices with y very sharp knife:
Put shredded lettuce on individual
plates and on this bed put pieces
Of palm in q circle and somewhat
thicker slice on q slice OF chilled
tomato in the center. Garnish the
plate further with green pepper rings
and sprays Of watercress. Serve
with q French dressing or rather
thin mayonnaise.
Palm hearts combine well with
citrus fruits in salad. GRAPEFRUIT
and orange segments and crescents
of peeled avocado are arranged with
the palm hearts on beds OF lettuce
and dressed with tart mayon-
naise.
In Brazil, they serve palmettos
with, rice in q number Of tasty ways.
lof course, there they usually use
the fresh hearts, but the canned
will do nicely) One dish IS made
by heating a tablespoon OF olive on'
adding to it a medium onion,
chopped and frying this until light
golden color. Then peeled and
chopped tomato, an herb bouquet,
about u pound OF smoked sausage,
cut in pieces, and 3 slices OF salt
pork are added to the pot. On goes
the cover and the mixture Is allowed
to simmer, being stirred from tlme
to time. .
After about 10 minutes, a cup OF
boiling water and u cup OF rice are
added. On goes the cover again and

plumps up, add more boiling water
as needed, turn up heat and lec DOH

Happy il the bride the sur
shines on >" the saying goes
and this Ii the month when bridal
showers, weddings and anniversary
celebrations claim the spotlight
Events that are surrounded with
tradition and sentiment dear to the
heart Of every bride in the land
Stories OF hov bridal showers came
into existence. the origin Of the
"bridecake" are legion. Each coun-
try seems to have th cir own version
here are some Of tne legends that
have been handed down through the
centuries.
Tho idea Of the bridal shower is
said to have originated In Holland
when . pretty little Dutch girl fell
in love with q poor miller who did
not have much Of this worlds goods
because he gave most Of his -four to
the poor. Her father disapproved
the marriage and refused to give her
. dowry unless she married 4 rich
farmer he had selected for her.
The poor niller's friends were very
upset when they heard this story
and went to work to find ways and
means of making the marriage pos
sible. None Of them had . great
deal Of money but they decided each
one would give the girl . gift no
matter how small. To the girls home
they brought gifts Of linens, plates,
copper pots and old Dutch vases.
When all these gifts were put to-
gether they amounted to more than
her fathers dowry. So-the couple
was married and lived happily ever
after In the tradition Of all good
fairy tales.
Years later, an Englishwoman had
Q friend who was to be married. Be-
ing too poor to give her friend an
elaborate gift and recalling the story
she had once heard Of the little
Dutch girl, she called her friends
together and suggested that they al
present their gifts at the same time.
The shower" was 50 successful that
it became established as definite
social custom. However, 1t took the
era of the Gay 90s" before people
really began calling them showers.
Then. the story goes, some bright
soul conceived the idea of filling an
umbrella with small gifts and giving
1t to the bride-to-be with instruc-
tions to open it over her head. The
result, Of course, was shower Of
gifts.

is responsible for this. The process
by which Gaming is done is described
as weaving. Seven steps are in
volved. First, strips of cane are
worked from front to back in the
chair seat and secured at the edges
by pegs stuck in holes that run
around the edge Of the chair. Then
second layer of cane is run from
right to left at right angles to the
first layer. The third and fourth
steps involve setting up still two
more layers, running diagonally
from left to right and from right to
left, on top of those already at
tached. The fifth and sixth steps
are accomplished by weaving dag
onally from left to right and right
to left, with strands Of cane. A
binding around the edge completes
the work. To insure good workman
ship. Mrs. Bell ties each strand as
she works
Remarking on the history Of can
ing, Mrs. Bell stated that chair
Gaming was developed around the
turn of the 17th century. Chairs,
once the exclusive property of OFF,
cials of church and state, had passed
into the life of the average man by
