COFFEE GADGET;
CAKE MOLDS?

From Mrs. J. X. McC., Washington.)
For Mrs. A. B. j. C. This summer
purchased the coffee gadget which
makes individual servings, at B.
Altman's, Thirty-fourth street and
Fifth avenue, New York.
Has any one had experience using
the lamb molds recently advertised
in many magazines? These molds
are in two sections and make
beautiful cake according to the
picture. but are they difficult to use?
would also like to hear from any
one who has used a Krumkake or an
Eb,eskiver iron. What sort of cakes
do these make? And, again, are
they difficult to use?

HOUSE PROBLEM?

From Mrs. J. H. D., Arlington.)
I should very much appreciate
any advice or suggestions you or
your readers can supply to assist me
in remedying a very difficult situa-
ton.
We have recently moved into a
new home which has steel case
ment windows. Since the cold
weather started and the furnace
has been turned on, we are having
great deal of trouble with conden-
sation on the windows, the panes
and the steel frames. The moisture
gathers in such amounts that 1t
drips down onto the sill, and unless
it Is wiped up or stopped with
towels, runs down the side and be-
low the sill
Has any one had similar prob
lem, and If so could it be stopped?
We do not have storm windows, but
understand that would not stop this
particular problem.
We would be willing to try any,
thing, even If it is just suggestion.

better to teach a dog manners. than
to have bad feelings with your
neighbor which might ultimately
mean having to give your dog up?
Dogs don't have to bark to be happy.
To the lady who requested infor-
nation on combing her cookers ears
offer the above no-bark muzzle.
This is effective in any dog who
objects to grooming or treatment in
illness. When my cocker eats, I
fasten her ears on top OF her head
with a rubber band. It keeps them
cleaner and easier to groom. The
only difficulty is that she thinks
she is going to eat every time she
sees me with a rubber band!

MEXICO?

From Mrs. II. p, Wnshington.)
We are planning a motor trip to
Mexico in June. We expect to spend
six weeks on this vacation taking
our son of IL and daughter of 10.
Archaeological spots are our special
interest.
We seek advice about food and
lodging especially. On q trip West
we found modern motor courts with
kitchenette facilities the most salts
factory solution. Are there such &C
commodations on the main high
ways in Mexico? Can one purchase
food safely en- route? II not, how
can one enjoy a healthful and mod
erately priced trip? We have heard
so much Of dysentery that we wish
to be very cautious.

vital to the unions than the au-
thorization polls. they said.
They believe, as do the pro-
union Congressman, that the
Ives-Landis bill is the only pro-
labor amendment that had the
ghost of a chance of getting
Congressional approval, T h e
position of organized labor, the
union men made it clear to the
Committee members, is that
Taft-H Hartley must be repealed
in it entirety.
Halleck Disappointed
This failure of organized labor
and its friends to push for the
Ives-Landis proposal may come
as distinct disappointment to
Rep. Charles Halleck (Ind0,
the COPS majority floor leader
in the House. Halleck is believed
to have been pushing the pip
squeak amendment to make a
Republican voting record of
modifying Taft Hartley at the
request of labor.
Meanwhile, organized labor
has been making clear to the
Committee its determination to
fight industry sponsored amend
ments to worsen Taft Hartley
Industry-wide collective bar
gaining, and union participation
in setting up health and retire
ment funds have been the main
targets of the reactionaries' at
tacks upon democratic labor
management relations during
two weeks of hearings.

Said Matthews: "The Chrysler
wage settlement is an important
gain for Chrysler workers them
selves and an important contri-
button to the whole economy OF
the nation at a time when the
continued increase in the cost
of living makes imperative an
increase in purchasing power
To the Chrysler workers alone

increase in purchasing power OF

Cracked Opposition
'"The Chrysler workers." q
union statement declared, with
the support of the General
Motors workers and the whole
membership of the UAW, have
definitely cracked the solid op-
position to wage increases in the
automobile industry, position
in which auto management was
allied with the steel, electrical
and other industries.
'"It is a signal victory for all
American workers in view OF
the determination of industry to
fight against any wage increases
at all. 1t is a resounding victory
for the Chrysler workers in
view of the Chrysler Corpora
tion's determination to pay ont
one penny increase without q

"The pay increase cannot
honestly be used by the cor
poration as an excuse for boost
ing prices. On the basis of its
1947 profits the Chrysler Corp
can pay the 13c an hour and
corresponding increases, reduce
its prices S120 a car, and still
make a six percent return on its

negotiated, the Committee votec

Two weeks ago NLRB of.
ficials added their own com
plants to those of union leaders
that the union shop polls are be-
ing held too long after unions
have requested them. They adj
mitted, too, that the rash of de-
mands for the authorization bal
lots has clogged the boards en-
tire machinery.
Shop Polls
At a subsequent Joint Com
mittee hearing last week, COM
mittee counsel Thomas Shroyer
a former NLRB attorney, stated
that he had been working on a
streamlining of procedures with
NLRB men. Instead of passing
the Ives-Landis bill the joint
Committee has recommended
that when employers grant a
unions request for a union Sc
.curity authorization election ii
be conducted by "high school or
college students, or ministers.
Nearly 99% of the union shop
polls have been taken with en-
ployer cooperation.
The board will provide per
diem employees with instruction
kits on how to conduct a Taft
Hartley election. AS they will be
sworn in as government en-
ployeS, the 1877 laws require
ment that the government must
poll workers before union
shop contract is legal will be
met.
Numerous political cross-cur-
rents affected the Committee's
decision to take this way, rather
than the Ives-Landis way ot
meeting the problem.
Some moderate Republicans,
like Sen. Irving Ives ON. W and
Rep Gerald Landis (Ind.) want
ed their bill brought to a vote
before the November 'elections
so that they could partially
atone for having voted for Taft
Hartley when it passed Congress
last year.

SEATTLE CITY TICKET
 OFFICE OF ALASKA $
 NOW MOVED UPTOWN

The Alaska Steamship Company announces that effective Monday, March l, their Seattle City Ticket office will be located at 823 Second Avenue, corner of Second and Mar ion.
 The move from Pier 5l to new quarters in the Exchange Building reflects a return to the company pre-war practice of maintaining uptown offices and is an indication of the greater passenger and tourist travel anticipated during the com ing and future seasons.
 Although location of the ticket office at Pier 51 proved most satis- factory during the restricted war time operation, it was pointed out that the postwar expansion of AL aska travel requires an office more suitably located.
 The move to Second and Marion is, it was stated, but the first step back to transportation row" where the Alaska Steamship Company maintained offices pre-war and will again when suitable space develops.

SOUTHERN DEMOS PLAN SHAKEUp IN
 RANKS OF PARTY
(BY JACK BELL)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27,-tRI-A shakeup in the embattled Demo- cratic Party after the Presidential election was predicted today by Sem ator George (D-Ga).
 Without passing on President Tru- mans chances in November, George said he believes southern opponents ot MT. Truman's Civil Rights Pro- gram are going to have great deal to say about the future complexion Of their party.
 As he spoke Dixie Democrats fought a delaying action in Congress against enactment of the Civil Rights plan. But in the southern states themselves, the drive to bar MI. Truman's name on the of- ficial ballot gained momentum.
 T think that a result of this 1948 campaign we will have a chance to recrganize the Democratic Party on a basis of sound economic and good government principles" the Georgia Senator told a reporter.
