TITLE meat pie is to the Australian as hamburger
IL in-bun is to the American. A cup of strong
coffee to wash down the burger but the Aussie
wants tea to team with his minced" meat in crust
Pastry shops in Australia bake the meat pies daily
for shoppers to carry home to reheat for dinner or
to eat cold from the hand Pie wagons sell pies and
cups of tea. piping hot as our corner diners dish
out the burgers with Java.
1t was Mrs. Jessie Street, Australian member of
the United Nations Commission on the Status of
Women. who told us the ways of the little meat
pie Mrs. Street, diligent worker for legal reforms
for women, wife of Judge Kenneth Street of the
Supreme Court in Sydney, mother of four children
and grandma to six. likes to talk food Here in
America she told she has had the best
meals she had eaten anywhere ever, and she
has Travelled the world. One thing is missing
- that's the Australian meat pie.
But we have our meat pies, we put in. How
do yours differ?" Mrs. Street didn't know exactly
except that at home the pie is always at hand and
its shape is distinctive. The Australian pie pan
measures about six inches across and has fanged
edge with the sides deep and straight and the pie
itself is all meat never vegetable except for the
inevitable onion.
Mrs. Street likes to serve the pies with baked
potato with any green vegetable in its season.
Hot from the oven the pie is slipped from tin to
hot plate. Ketchup that's the right condiment
Fork-break the pie in its center and pour in big
splash of the red, spicy sauce. What for dessert?
Stewed fruit would be typical

GOLD RUSHo OF AS YIELDS S2O GOLD PIECES
 FOR CALIFORNIANs

MONTEREY. Calif. - A gold strike, which so far has yielded more than 125 2O-dollar gold coins. this week drew scores of Monterey residents to an excavation where new school is being built.
 Most of the coins were dated in the 18S0s. Collectors said coin cat alogues list them at considerably more than face value One was priced at S60.
 The first gold piece was found by Damon Burgess, employee of the construction company building the school. The next day from 70 to so person dug up about 50 coins The day following about 75 more coins were unearthed then the builders stopped the prospecting" because heavy equipment endangered the gold-seekers. One prospector had a jar containing 27 gold pieces.
 The property at one tima vas owned by Will Martin. who died in 1913. Just before his death he told a nephew, Carmel Martin. Monterey attorney, that there was money buried on the lot. He was too weak to say where or how much was involved. Members of the family searched from timr to time and found nothing.
 The old family home was moved from the site two years ago and $1,5OO was disclosed in a hiding place then.

 junction with immediate resump- tion of private operation by the steamship companies. The fight re- suited in the case being thrown out with continued Government op- eration for another year and a half. This forestaled an increase whatsoever until May 21, 1947. when the present interim subsidy plan went into effect. Had the 1OOFo increase gone into effect fer 1946 and the first half of 1947, 1t would have added approximately $12,000,000 to Alaska's freight bill for that period. The S22,41O.9S al- so enabled the Development Board to seek lower lighterage rates in the Nome area, resulting thus far in a favorable report from the Ex- aminer, and also block an increase of terminal charges in 1946 on AL aska cargo handled at Seattle from S1.63 per ships ton to $40 in the resultant hearing the terminal rate was set at $2.20 per ton, re- sulting in a saving to the Alaska public thus far of more than S1.- O00,000 These facts show that the public has gotten good results for it's money.
 Sl0.000 Appropriation
 In March of IS41, Sz5O.UO was spent out of the Governors Elm ergency Fund to oppose certain terms of the present interim con tract. Since April 1, 1947, just prior to which the last Legislature appropriated S10,O00 for the office of the Attorney General to handle all Territorial rate matters, with a mandate to the TerritOry's officials to use all powers at their command to oppose freight rate increases, the Attorney General has assumed full charge in such cases. Out of that appropriation S5,l83.O7 has been spent on the recent rate in- Vestigation, including fee of Special Rate Counsel Malcolm Miller, 50go of fee to economist Don O'Conner, travel, printing of briefs, etc. AL though the Maritime Commissions examiners have reported in favor of the interim contract rates, the case is not yet over. Petition re- gently filed by the Attorney Gen. eral (which does not call for an- other steamship investigation be- cause it is a mere follow-up on the recent Seattle hearing) asks for cancellation of the present con- tract because of breaches thereof, and institution of new arrange ments. The Commission well knows after just hearing Alaska Trans portation Company charges against Alaska Steam-Northland, in which case the Attorney General backed Alaska Transportation, that new arrangements could consist of con-I solidation of jointly owned Alaska Steam-Northland for elimination of one overhead, and reallocation of ships on that basis with permis- sion to Alaska Transportation Com pany to compete all the way to tn Westward. Such arrangements could also require the two newly authorized carriers to enter into a workable conference agreement forI economical routing and sailings of their respective vessels"

Special Session Causes Change
In Timing of New Spy Scare

done II the President hadn't called
the special session.
The fact Is that the investigating
committees were authorized to
carry on their activities during the
summer recess and that the
Thomas committee, at least, WIS
fully prepared to do so. 1t hardly
intended, however, to explode its
half-baked sensations so far ahead
of the election. Its timing always
has been better than that; in fact,
it has been expert. Morning ses-
sions have been chopped off quickly
when the afternoon papers had all
the headlines the committee
deemed necessary for one day.
Afternoon sessions have been man
aged with equal consideration for
the morning papers.
Washington newspapermen, Ia
miliar with the Thomas tactics, did
not expect any new revelations"
until late in the campaign-until,
that is to say, it was too late for
the revelations to be examined and
properly evaluated.
Rushed to Party's Rescue.
The spotlight Of the special ses-
sion, however, required immediate
obfuscation and the Thomas COM
mittee rushed to the party's res
cue. A number Of prominent
names we're dragged through the
mire. The owner Of one of these
names already has made the COM
mittee look little sick. Some OF
the others may be able to do the
same, if given the same opportunity
