: Do try the many different fla
workings, herbs and seasoninss,
that are available in stores to-
day. Why not use caraway seeds
in the cottage cheese or a dash
of Glove in the Harvard beets?
You can buy herb vinegars, too,
or make them from herbs from
your own garden or from those
you buy. They're a convenient
way to add herbs to salad dress
ings and other dishes using vine
gar.
Food experts say try new taste
adventures with flavors--mint in
cream dressing for a fruit salad;
drops Of lime over your fruit cup
or in cola beverages; pepper
mint in your chocolate sauce;
strawberry in custards. Put a
delightful pungent touch into
cookies and cakes with anise and
almond flavorings, or in ginger
bread with an orange flavoring.
Spice any of your apple dishes
with cinnamon.
When you use herbs, especially
dried herbs, use them with a
light hand. Herb flavors are lost
through long cooking. So add
them to stews, soups and poi
toasts, about a half-hour before
cooking is finished. You'll fine
that you can draw out and ex
tend the flavor of the oils II
herbs better by adding the herbs
to fat. Home economists recon-
mend using herbs in the follow
ing ways:
Serve cooked string beans o,
peas mixed with chopped chiv
es; or with a dash Of garlic sal
or rosemary.
Try basil or bay leaves will
tomatoes.
Dill seeds and carawy seed!
pep up cabbage dishes.
Put a few whole cloves il
creamed onions.
Try tarragon vinegar for beets
| For a change from everyda,
mashed potatoes, add littl
chopped chives or parsley.
A dash of rosemary make
that vitamin-rich spinach tast
like more!
| Sprinkle a little dill into cook
ed winter squash.

over bottom of pan, then add
corn syrup, nut meats and raj
sins, distributing them evenly.
Tie loaf of sliced bread together
loosely with piece of string
and place entire loaf in pan, with
top of loaf on bottom Of pan.
Press it firmly into pan so bread
will absorb syrup. Bake in hot

Is minutes. Let cool for a few
minutes. then turn out and serve
while still warm.

 And Senator Ball (R.-Minn0 said, without naming a new date, that there is no chance Congress will meet the April l deadline set by the State Department for final Con- gressional approval of the Marshall Plan.
 Taft and George agreed in sep arate interviews, however, that Con- gross might vote additional stop gap assistance to tide some European na- tions over a part of the April-July interval they foresee.
 Last month during the special ses- sion Congress appropriated S540,- OOO,O00 in stop gap aid for France, Italy. Austria and China. This pro- gram is scheduled to wind up April l, but Taft and George said they believe the money may last until June

 Marshall went before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to plead for an adequate, prompt and effectively administered program.
 The greying soldier-diplomat told the members the great project" would be difficult enough in "a normal international political eli mate" and would be neither sure nor easy" in view of the natural difficulties and the Communist op- position.
 Marshall read to the lawmakers a 5500-word statement spelling out the administration plan to help put Western Europe back on foun- dation of economic stability Then at the end, he said.

SEN. WALKER SEES NEW OPPOSITION TO PULP DEvEL0pMENT

Territorial Senator Norman R. Walker of Ketchikan told members of the Juneau Chamber of Com merce today that the development of large pulp industry would be the solution to the economic prob lems of Southeast Alaska, but warn ed that efforts to develop the in- dustry must be actively revived in the face of new opposition.
 He said that the Juneau Chamber is in a position to take the leading part in carrying the battle to suc- cessful conclusion.
 Walker said that in Petersburg he noted large sh p m ent of machinery labeled "sawmill machin- cry" destined for an Indian fisher man at Rake, even though no saw mill is contemplated there according to businessmen from Rake. Walker said it is probable that this is new move on the part of Indian attor- neys to block the pulp development program and that if similar ship ments are sent to Kasaan and Hyda- burg he will feel quite certain of it.
 With valuable machinery on the ground, probably paid for by the government, he said, the Indian at torneys will be able to oppose legis- lation paving the way for private development of the pulp industry by asserting that they already have large investments on the ground while the pulp companies have nothing.
 Stating that the fishing industry in Southeast Alaska will continue to be in poor shape, Walker said that I've must establish the pulp industry or face some grave fi- nancial problems
 The Chamber unanimously en- dorsed a five-point program for AL aska which the Seattle Chamber is to present Monday to conference involving 85 Chambers of the Vest ern States.
 Guests included M. P. Goding of Cedar Falls, Iowa and Skagway; Frank Wright, Sitka canneryman Norman B. Wigutoff of the Fishery Products Laboratory of Ketchikan, and Ken Laughlin, Manager of radio station KFQD of Anchorage.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-lR- Most of President Truman's ma- jor l94S legislative proposals, par ticularly his tax reduction and anti-inflation plans, appeared head ed for a congressional wastebasket.
 But several, including rent con- trol extension, foreign aid, broad ened social security coverage, high CT minimum wages and civil rights guarantees, seemed likely to pass in compromise form.
 Still others, such as national health insurance and compulsory military training, were Jumped in the highly doubtful category.
 But leaders of both the Re- publican majority and the Demo- cratic minority left little doubt that they look for the Presidents tax and anti-inflation plans to be rejected after prolonged wrang- ling likely to lay the foundation for this years Presidential and elections.
