anti-inf1ation legislation, repeal o1
the Taft-Hartley Law and other
party platform planks.
Public housing and extension OF
social security benefits also will be
among the administrators legisla-

said last night.
Senator Barkley spoke at dinner
symposium on The Outlook for
1949," sponsored in his honor by
Town Hall.
The new administration, he noted
is committed to oppose a national
sales tax and to reduce taxes for
low-income families whenever it is
possible to do so without unbalanc-
ing the Nations economy"
The Senator recalled President
Truman's recommendation to Con-
gress that the excess-profits tax be
re-enacted, and said:
I have no Information as to
whether that recommendation will
be repeated, but unless increased
income should be necessary, or un-
less Congress should be convinced
that a re-enactment of an excess
profits tax would be an essential
part OF an anti-inflation program, I
am not in a position to predict that
such a tax will be re-enacted."

2Park Police privates Hears Bark|ey Pledge
For Arrest Of Suspect Fig hi for Initiation Curb

Two members of the United States
Park Police were presented with
honorary memberships in the Lin
coin Civic Association last night in
recognition of their part in the ar
rest of man suspected of rape.
Those honored were Pvt. Walter

policewoman. Both are colored.
Acting as team, the two police
officers, in plainclothes, checked the
area around Banneker Recreation
Center, Georgia avenue and Euclid
street NV, following reports early
this month that young girls and
women were being molested.
On December 6, they arrested a
man who they said was lettering in
the section. and who allegedly
answered the description in a look
out for the suspect.
The police officers said he subse-
quently was identified in a police
lineup by three women and two
girls, who reported they had been
molested. The man, Willie H. Mas
sey. 36-year-old laborer of the first
block of Quincy place NV. now is
awaiting grand jury action on a
charge of rape, and further investi-
cations are under way to determine
whether he is connected with two
other sex offenses which occurred
here recently.
In commenting that "too much
praise cannot be given to the two
park police officers, DR.. E. F. Harris,
association president, presented the
two privates with gold honorary
membership cards, and also made
Capt. Mark H. Raspberry, COM
manding the park police, an honor

Association.

that the two police officers have
been commended for their prompt
action in this case"
Pvt. McEwen and his wife, Con-
stance, have a son. Walter, jr.. 5.
He has been on the force two years.
Pvt. Wilson also is married. She
has been with the park police for
more than four years.

The Chef Saws :

The globe artichoke Is here again,
much to my Joy, for what asparagus
Is to the spring, the artichoke is
to the fall. Both vegetables may be
served as a separate course, as q
salad or as the accompaniment to
the roast. Both take kindly to
Hollandaise, mayonnaise and vinai-
grette sauce ana botA are delicious
served simply with drawn butter.
Legend says the artichoke was the
favorite dish of Antony and Cleo
patra. Be that as it may, its origin
is Africa. 1t belongs to the thistle
family, which accounts for its spiky
leaves. Champlain, the French ex-
plorer, mentions seeing artichokes
grown by the Indians on Cape Cod
way back in 1905.
In preparing artichokes, it is well
to soak them head down in cold,
heavily salted water, for some time
before cooking, to encourage wild
life to creep out. Then drain them
and plunge them into boiling salted
water, to which a pinch of soda has
been added. Otherwise, they ar,
apt to turn q dirty brown. Cool
until tender - the time depends
upon the age Of the artichoke, but
the outside leaves should be ready
to drop off at touch. Drain well
and serve hot with Hollandaise
Sauce or butter or very cold with
mayonnaise or hot Hollandaise. TIL,
contrast in temperature is delight
full.
If you can resist the pleasure OF
scraping away at the tender Leaf
bases dipped in sauce, chuck away
the leaves of raw artichokes, scrape
of the choke and proceed to pre-
pare the hearts in various ways

HERE AND THERE: Did you keep
your poinsettia plant over from
last Christmas? If you did, here
are some pertinent suggestions from
the Plant Industry Station at Belts
vile, Nd, on what to do If you
want blooms at the holiday sea-
son. Poinsettia plants should be
given q short day, long night
schedule beginning not later than
the middle Of November. Nature
takes care Of this in the sub-tropics
by providing the short days and
long nights required. In q lighted
living room, however, the plant Is
likely to get just the reverse. Here
are the pointers for producing
handsome flowers: Place the poin-
settia where it will get as much
light as possible during the day,
and then put 1t to bed early by
covering it with a black cloth. Pro-
tect the plant from drafts and ex-
treme temperatures and keep it
watered. Applications of liquid ma
nure at weekly intervals will help,
after the plant becomes
potbound. Do you know what
is behind the law of not putting ba-
nanas in the refrigerator? It's be-
cause the starch can't change to
sugar to make them sweet. :.
And do you know that cheese slices
more easily If you heat the knife
before cutting the cheese?
. If two tablespoons starch are
added to the last rinse water for tea
towels, there1l be no lint left on
glassware or dishes to mar their
gleam. Bake q meat loaf in q
ring mold for . company supper;
fill the center with fluffy mashed
potatoes sprinkled with paprika, and
surround the outside of the ring
with crisp green circles of cucumber
pickles. =. It's pop corn time again.
Be sure you have several cans
handy for the teen-age crowd when
they gather at your house. The rest
OF the family usually like a bowl of
fresh popped corn too, so pop plenty.
What's better of a winter evening
to MUNICH on as you read your IA
vorite book? >. You'd never guess
1t unless you came from New Eng
land, but seedless raisins and fresh
cranberries taste wonderful when
baked together in . pie. The sweet
and tart combination Is perfect.

citrus fruit has improved decidedly
during the last few weeks. Good
juice oranges from Florida can be
had now at O price no higher than
last year. The season on Bartlett
pears is over and the Anjous are
coming in; this pear Is q stubbier,
|semi-heart shaped variety. 1t bor-
ders between a green and q creamy
yellow when ripe, but the real test
for ripeness is determined by touch"
rather than by color. When pear
responds to slight thumb and finger

Anjou has O rich flavor, fine texture
and is full Of juice, so 1t is 4 great

has been included in CARES new

q cross between three bi. as, has
been developed by the Department
of Agriculture at Beltsville. It is
deep-breasted, tender bird, compact
yet large enough to feed as many
as IL people. 1t has been steam
roasted within q vacuum sealed
plastic bag to retain its own de-
licious juices, then canned under
pressure. The press and radio peo-
pie were given a preview of this
turkey at q luncheon on Monday.
We had serving of the meat after
it had been heated and also slices
of 1t cold just as it came from the
can. It was equally good in both

Have you been attending the free
cooking school and style show held
in the Bethesda Theater this week?
You still have full day left to take
advantage Of this food demonstra-
ton sponsored by the Potomac Elec-
trio Power Co. Miss Mary Turner
director of the home service bureau,
prepares an oven meal, a meal from
the electric broiler, a thrifty dinner
from the deep well-cooker, and q
top-of-the-stove meal at each ses-
sion. If you didn't 60 Wednesday or
Thursday be sure you put 1t down as

If you want q good seat.
Every one is budget-minded these
days: we're all out to get the best
quality food for the money we're
prepared to spend. In order to ac-
complish this we must be able to
recognize quality merchandise when
we see it. Are you always satisfied
with your selections when you get
them back to your own kitchen?
Here are a few purchasing tips to
guide you in judging quality produce.
These tips apply to vegetables that
are among the best buys" on this
weeks market.
In young carrots look for unwilted,
green tops. Avoid carrots that have
wilted tops; the shoulders
should not be green. Old carrots
should have a good color, be we'll
shaped and fresh appearing. When
you buy head lettuce, look for solid,
crisp, clean heads. Avoid lettuce
that is soft, Shiny or badly bruised.
Cabbage, whether 1t is old, new or
red, look for q firm, solid head. All
leafy greens should have o good
green color: tender and crisp plants.
Shy away from the greens that look
discolored, dirty and show signs of
willing. Caulifiower and broccoli,
both good values now, need to be
picked with care. In broccoli, look
for fresh, firm, tender buds with
brittle stalks. The bud or flower
should be dark or purplish green.
Avoid 1t If the flower has turned
yellow or purple, it's old. Cauli-
flower should have a hard, white
head with fresh green leaves. When
the leaves have turned dark and
the sigments have separated, 1t is
not good buy for your money.
