Guy H. Graham
Celebrates 81st
Birthday Sunday

A family dinner on Sunday
marked the S1st birthday anniver-
sary of Guy H. Graham, who lives
at Avalon on the Rockville Pike.
Present were his wife, and two
daughters, Mrs. James H. Taylor

helping celebrate the occasion
were DR.. Taylor, and Larry.
In spite of his age Mr.. Graham
spent the past summer on an is
land in Maine where he devoted
much time to the writing of a
book which is now in the hands
Of publishers. The book deals with
grade school arithmetic which, tits
said, will teach anyone to work
fractions. He typed the copy him
self, too, we'll have you know!
Mr.. Graham's life's interest has
conferred on experiments with
plants, fruits and flowers-in ad-
dition to eras of school teaching
and writing. In 1927, at four
months short of the age of 60, he
received his A. B. degree from the
University of Nebraska.
Mr.. and Mrs. Graham who cele-
brated their golden wedding ami
versary in 1910, live in their own
cottage adjoining the home of
their daughter at Avalon.

Red Feather Drive To Be
Continued Two Weeks

Mortimer M. Hayes, chairman
for the Rockville business unit of
the Red Feather Drive, reports
that he and nine other business
men of Rockville are intensifying
their efforts in the Community
Chest campaign which has been
extended for two weeks. The sup
port Of Rockville's business firms
and employees will especially be
sought.
Business men who are working
with Mr.. Hayes in the drive are !:
Owings England, M. w. Bradshaw,
Mr.. and Mrs. R. T. Baughman,
William (BilD Williams, Joe
Steinberg, Frank Jenkins, Clifton
Veirs, Jr., and ]. Ernest Hawkins.
@All these campaigners are busy
people" says Mr.. Hayes, "but they
know the value of the services this
money supports"
As of October 20, the last gen.
eral report meeting of the Com
munity Chest Federation, $46,879
had been raised in Montgomery
County, which is little more than
29% of the county's goal. Though
this amount seems low," says Will
liam d. Blair, campaign chairman
for the county, "the number of
our potential contributors remains
high. So far this year 4,O69 indi-
viduals in the county have contri-
buted; last year 1926 gave. This
indicates" he pointed out, "that
many new residents and many pre-
yious contributors have not yet
been reached"
All except $5,S97 of the $46,897
collected SO far has been from resi-
Dental gifts; as reports from the
business units in the county come
in, chest officials expect an appre-
ciable increase in the total.

ton resulted in the only dis sension of the entire meeting, for three delegates from south eastern Alaska walked out of the convention hall when they failed to kill the resolution before it reached a vote.
 The six territorial delegates to the national convention were in- structed to support President Harry Truman for the 1948 presidency nomination. Alaska was the first of the states and territories to go on record in favor of President Truman. Alas ka was also the first to endorse Franklin Roosevelt in 1882, thus leading Governor Gruening to comment, "As Alaska goes, so goes the nation"
 In other business the Demo crats decried the Congressional plan to lease fish traps on a 15- year basis, asking that the peo- pie of the territory be allowed an expression of opinion first. The fish-trap question is to come before Alaskans as a referendum on the fall ballot.
 A three-point tax program was proposed, consisting of an income tax, business tax, and limited property tax. The delegates ex- pressed themselves in opposi- tion to the territorial sales tax.
 The convention also went on record as favoring an amend ment to the Jones act to permit Canadian ships to serve Alaska, called for improvement of Alas kan housing conditions, election of the territory's governor pend ing statehood and the passage of the municipal airport act.

Kitchen Katie Tells Valley

A habit of Eskimos that Out siders often regard as sign of their queerness is. their liking for fat as a delicacy. Many per- sons who come to live in Alaska, however, discover that they, too, have an increased taste for fat.
 Experienced Alaskans save and use every scrap of fat they get. Fat from all Alaskan game is much too useful to be wasted. Bear fat is the most valuable in cooking, because of its sweet nutlike flavor and low melting point. Tallow from moose, cari- bou, sheep and goat is quite brit tie when cool.
 All the talloWs can be saved and used, even for pastries, if they are carefully rendered, strained and mixed with equal, or one and a half times their volume of bear grease. This mix ture may be successfully substi- tuted in any recipe calling for lard or vegetable shortening.
 Cooks who use these fats like to keep several grades for diff ferent uses. Pastry with sheep or goat tallow in the fat is good for meat pies and biscuits. Straight bear fat is best for sweet pies, but not necessary.
 Even when the weather is cold enough to hang out bear or any other game in the meat house, it is advisable to trim off every pos sible shred of fat, as the fat is first to take on a strong flavor, that in turn spreads to the meat. As soon as it IS trimmed the fat should be cut into small cubes and rendered out in a large iron kettle with water in the bottom. The cook stove oven is a good place for rendering fat. Ii the hot fat is strained into sterile fruit jars and filled to overfloWlng and sealed, it will keep fresh longer. The jars should be stored where it is cold and out of the sunlight. The cracklings should never be thrown away, for they make a delicious flavoring for a batch of beans, or as an addition to stew made with lean meat. Below is a method of making extra-flaky pie crust for nine inch pie using bear-grease and talloW mixture. (You can blend this with fingers, chilling not necessary)
 1I2 cups flour
 12 teaspoon salt
 12 cup shortening
 4-5 tablespoons cold water. Sift salt and flour together, mix shortening coarsely. Set aside little less than a third of this mixture in a separate dish. Add water to main mixture and divide into two parts. Roll out lower crust, sprinkle on some of dry crumbs mixture, fold and roll again. Repeat three or four times. Save half of crumbs for upper crust, and roll and fold alternately in same way.

Council for Judaism
Backs u. ). Plan for
Palestine Trusfeeshir

Support of the United States plan
for trusteeship over Palestine was
announced today by the American
Council for Judaism.
The councils president, Lessing j.
Rosenwald of New York, informed
Secretary of State Marshall by tele-
gram that the anti-Zionist organi-
zation "Subscribes whole-heartedly
to the position taken by the United
States in proposing suspension of
the partition plan"
1--WE hope the course proposed by
our Government will be vigorously
pursued so that its implementation
will bring peace and agreement to
the people of Palestine rather than
strife and division" Mr.. Rosenwald
said
THE interests of the United
States and world peace demand
that this issue be removed from the
realm of domestic politics and that
it secure widespread bipartisan sup
port as an integral part of United
States foreign policy.
Statement Backed Locally.
Joseph D. kaufman, chairman of
the councils Washington chapter
executive board, said the Rosenwald
message, conveyed in the name of
all members of the council, en-
phasized the little-realized fact that
Zionists do not speak for all Jewry.
Another Washington member, AL
fred M. Lilienthal, Executive Com
mittee counsel, saw in trusteeship
"the one way that a compromise can
be realized" He said the opposi-
tion had not been as articulate as
it might be because many Jews had
sympathized with the zionists out
of pity for the displaced persons
they might help.
Asserting there is strong under
current against q Jewish national
state in Palestine, Mr.. Lilienthal
said politicians have the "fallacious
idea that there exists one Jewish
bloc, and that by taking one stand
or another, they can win all of
Jewry."
The councils aim is for BIZ
national state of Jews and Arabs,
built on cultural and humanitarian
lines rather than political, Mr.
Lilienthal said.
Outlined at Conference.
The basis for this concept was
outlined at q national conference
of the council and more recently
Endorsed by the Washington chap
ter's Executive Committee.
One Of the councils principles is
that nationality and religion are
separate and distinct. Rejecting
any concept that Jews are at home
only in Palestine. council members
insist their homeland is the United
States.
The council contends that no
group of Jews can speak for all the
Jews of America It is dedicated
to extend the fullest philanthropic
aid to our co-religionists and to suf-
fering humanity everywhere"
In Its program, the council urges
action making 1t possible for those
wishing ito support Jewish philan-
thropic and religious purposes to do
so without being compelled to sup
port Jewish nationalistic endeavors."
It also seeks public understand
ing Of the need for action by our
