FRANCE: Coils of the Reds

The Communists were showing
France their muscles. First the Red
led coal miners went on strike. A
week later the railway workers
struck. A 48-hour stoppage was or
dered in the steel mills of the Metz
area. For "a hours the dock workers
quit.
The result was a creeping paral-
ysis and the certainty of making
drastic electric power cuts through
out the winter. In nine days, the coal
strike cost the nation more than
100000 tons.
Jules Moch, French interior min
lister, was said to have charged that
the strike orders had come from the
CominfOrm with the idea of wrecking
the European Recovery Program. But

must be lifted first.
The "battle of Berlin" was hot.
Veto Held Certain
The six neutral nations on the
Security Council-Argentina, China,
Belgium, Colombia, Canada and
Syria-spent a week trying to find a
solution. When it appeared that they
had failed the big three western DOW
ers drafted a resolution calling for
tirm steps to lift the blockade. Infor-
mants said the west was certain vi

suggesting Russia was wrong or, in
fact, that any blockade of Berlin ex-

representatives retained their facade

Whot the Experts Think

The Mirror, a new Los Angeles
newspaper, asked world leaders:
"How great is the danger of another
World War and how best can it be
prevented"
Some answers:
Trygvie Lie: Il am convinced
war will not happen within the fore
Seeable future. :"
JaWaharlal Nehru: 'I feel con-
vinced that ultimately war can only
be outlaWed by new approach to
some extent in line with Mahatma
Gandhi's basic principles"
Winston Churchill: "The only sure
foundation of peace rests upon
strength. If it were not for the stocks
OF atomic bombs now in the trustee
ship of the United States, there would
be no means of stopping the subiu-
cation of western Europe by Com
munist Vaccinations, backed bv the
Russian armies" Churchill expressed
the same idea in a speech this week
in Wales.)
George Bernard Shaw: "The igno-
rance, folly and pugnacity of our
rulers being unlimited, no monstros-
lty, not even another suicidal world
war, is impossible or preventable."
The Mirror also asked Premier

ness. Experiments at Plant In
dustry Station, Beltsville, Mary
land, indicate that the long night
is the important factor in bring
ing poinsettas into flower. Nature
takes care of this in the sub
tropics by providing the short
days and long night required. In
lighted living room, however,
the plant is likely to just the re-
verse. Studies show that inter-
ruptions Of darkness with as lit
tie as one-half foot candle light
an hour in the middle of the
night for three weeks will pre-
vent Towering. Plants may not
get enough darkness in a dim
ly lighted hall.
Here are pointers for producing
handsome flowers:
Place the poinsetta where it
will get as much light as possible
during the day and then put it
to bed early by covering it with a
black cloth.
Protect the plant from drafts
and extreme temperatures and
keep it watered.
Applications of liquid manure
at weekly intervals i'll help, es-
pecially after the plant becomes
potbound.

of the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture:
Day-old bread is recommended
because it is firm enough to
spread easily and hold the filling,
yet not too hard and dry, as older
bread may be. Medium-thick
slices generally are best. Very
thin slices make dainty party
sandwiches but are too fragile for
the lunchbox Thick slices make
sandwiches too ''bready" and diff
ficuIt to eat.
On the question Of trimming of
crusts, tastes differ. But trimming
takes extra time in making, is
wasteful unless crusts are saved
for other uses, and sandwiches
dry out more quickly at the edge
when crusts are off.
To make butter of margarine
spread smoothly without tearing
the bread, soften at room tenn
perature or cream" with a fork,
but do not melt because this
makes the fat soak into rather
than spread on the bread. A bit
Of seasoning may be worked in
when softening with a fork--a
pinch of mustard, or chopped par
sley, or onion juice, depending on
the filling to be used. Markets to-
day offer many prepared sand
wich spreads, among them pea
nut butter, soft cheese and even
some meat spread which may go
directly on the bread. Whatever
the spread used, apply it lightly
and evenly to the very edge of
the slices
Sandwich filling mixtures are
so many that different one may
be used every day in the year.
Different breads also may be
used for variety--oatmeal raisin,
orange, nut, Boston Brown or
whole wheat, for example Half
and-half sandwiches may be
made with one slice of whole
wheat or rye and one slice of
white bread. Rolls, biscuits, and
buns may vary the bread fare,
too. In making bun sandwiches,
slice the bun only three-fourths
through so that top and bottom
remain attached and hold the fill
ing for easy eating. Bun sand
wiches stuffed with salmon or egg
salad are hearty and popular.
Bane of any lunchbox is the
sandwich that is drippy or sticky,
hard or dry. Good sandwiches
have enough filling to balance
the bread but not enough to bulge
over the edge at the first bite.
Because carried lunches always
wait some hours before they are
eaten, only Filings which can
stand the wait should be used.
Lettuce in sandwiches is likely
to become limp before the noon
whistle blows, but a wedge of
cold lettuce, wrapped in waxed
paper, can remain crisp to be eat
en- out of hand with the sandwich
Sliced tomatoes in tomatoes in
sandwiches may soak and soften
bread as they stand, but quar-
tered tomato, carefully wrapped,
makes an appetizing finger
salad"
Sandwiches made up the night
before should be kept cold over
night to be appetizing and whole
some. Wrap each one separately
in waxed paper or slip into a
waxed sandwich bag and fold the
opening before putting into the
refrigerator.
