Career Gir|'s S Holiday Dinner
A FooI-Proof Menu She Can Easily Fix Herself

| amateur cook can transform into a
fine NEAL" l suggested. "Of course,
a little planning is necessary. And
to avoid a last minute rush it's best
to begin to prepare the meal well in
advance, starting first the dish that
takes longest. That leaves time to
set and decorate the table, and to
put on fresh makeup. Whether or
not the young hostess dons ruffled
apron the last minute, or wears a
sophisticated hostess gown, depends
on the impression she wants to
make"
"Does she wish to have this meal
sophisticated or more home-style?"
inquired the Chef.
"A combination of both, if pos
sible, would be perfect" l said.
"As soon as the guests arrive, l
suggest serving the appetizer and
interesting canapes in the living
room corner of her little apart
ment," suggested the Chef. "And
after while, she can slip away and
put the first course on the table,
which is already set in the dining
room corner"
Undoubtedly the other girls will
help" | continued, $50 the service
will be easy and smooth. However,
there should be no cooking done dur
ing the meal-that should be COM
pleted before the guests arrive. And
one bit of advice to the hostess:
Don't be too proud to let your guests
help with the dishes after dinner"

Food for Thought
Panned Chicken or
Duckling Sections

Cauliflower should be soaked in
salted water for about 80 minutes
before it is cooked, so as to draw out
any insects that may be hidden
among the fowerets. If the head is
left whole rather than separated
into flowerets, be sure to put it into
the water head down.
For apple pie, grated cheese rolled
into the crust is delicious. Try it.

Development of Port Facilities Will Help Shipping

SEATTLE, (P Government development of Alaska port facili- ties was suggested by Joseph K. Carson, maritime commis n member, as a possible aid in set ting up a permanent Alaska ship ping program.
 Carson, former mayor of Port land, was in Seattle to confer with maritime officials, shippers and steamship men.
 The commission member said Alaska terminal and cargo-hand- ling facilities constitutee one of the major problems in considering long-range shippings program for the Territory.
 q, personally, doubt that pri- vate operators can afford to build the necessary installations under present conditions" Carson said.
 "It might we'll be the solution for the government to take hand in developing these facilities, the same as it has done in developing the rivers and harbors in the con tinental United States"
 Carson said the commission is

reviewing the entire Alaska situa- ton, including a report on term inal and cargo operations by Felix Sherwood, west coast steamship expert.
 "The commission has two ap- proaches to the Alaska ship prob lem," he explained. "One is a long-range program that will meet the problem head-on and provide permanent service to the Terri tory; the other, in event a perm anent program can not be devised immediately, is to seek continu- ance of the present stop-gap pro- gram or legislation for some other interim shipping setup."
 Carson, noting that the Alaska trade was built largely by indus trial carriers and is seasonal by nature, said that analysis of the overall picture may disclose need for more than a seasonal opera tiOn."
 He stressed urgency of the Alas ka ship dilemma, both from the standpoint of national defense and service to Territorial residents.

DEATH CAME:
Charles f.. HUGHES

Regally bearded Charles Evans
Hughes came within a whisker of
being elected the 9th President of
the United States in 1916.
At that time be was a crusty,
unbending, academic man, and it
was probably because of that tenn
permanent that he lost the presi-
dental race to Woodrow Wilson in
one of the closest elections in his
tory-277 electoral votes to 254.
California's vote was the deciding
factor in the final result and Hughes
lost that when he incensed the Cali
forlia governor by failing to visit
him while on a tour of the, state.
But Charles E. Hughes was, new
erthsless, as near to being a great
man as most people ever get. And
he mellowed with time.
He was the only American ever
to be appointed twice to the U. S.
supreme court - once in 1910 and
again in 1890 when he returned to
preside as chief justice.
He was twice governor of New
York, his native state, resigning
the position during his second term
to become supreme court asso-
ciate justice.
In July, 1941, he retired from the
supreme bench to withdraw into
private life. Between that time and
August of this year he made only
one public appearance - to attend
the funeral services of Harlan
Fiske Stone, another chief justice,
in April, 1916.
Late last month Charles Evans
Hughes, So years old. died of con-
gestive heart failure.

For Truman

AS the two major preSldentlal
candidates prepared to swing their
campaigns into full career in prep
aration for the November elections,
some good news popped up for
President Truman.
The CIO officially threw it's sup
port to the Democratic ticket and
pledged the organization to work
for his election.
That was the way the CIO had
written itself on the political books
this year, but the action left the
organization simmering with inter-
nal discord.
Bitter protests of IL left-wing un-
ion leaders had had to be overcome
before the CIO could cast it's lot
with Truman and Barkley- The dis
senting unions wanted to support
Wallace, and they had their way
insofar as the resolution adopted by
the group was easy in its criticism
of the Progressive party's candi-
date.
COP nominee Thomas E. Dewey,
however, was condemned as 'the
candidate of big business" The
Dixiecrats, headed by Gov. Strom
Thurmond of South Carolina, were
shrugged off in the resolution as a
coalition of Democrats and do
nothing Republicans that has
"steadfastly adhered to the philos-
ophy of the National Association of
Manufa cturers.
The pro-Truman resolution by the
CIO executive board did not neces-
sarily mean total support for the
President, however. Philip Murray,
CIO president, said that the IL dis
senting unions are not bound by the
majority decision to back Mr.. Tru-
man.
ANY union still may exercise it's
right to do what it wants." he said.
That meant, apparently, that the
leadership of at least IL CIO unions.
numbering more than a million
members, would continue to labor
in behalf of Wallace, while 80 other
unions with about SIS million mem
bers would 60 to work for the Dem
ocratic party.
