||h|der Asks Office
For National Capital
Under President

A suggestion that an Office for
the National Capital be set up as
part of the Executive Office OF
the President was before Congress
today.
1t was made by John Ihlder
executive officer of the National
Capital Housing Authority, in q
letter to Senator Mcclellan, chair
man of the Senate Expenditures
Committee. Senator McClellan'had
asked him to comment on the
recommendations of the Hoover
Commission affecting the housing
authority.
Mr.. Ihlder said such an Office
as he suggested could perform a
most useful function and would
give recognition to the fact that
the District of Columbia is a
major responsibility of the Federal
Government"
He was critical of the sugges-
tions the Hoover Commission
made regarding the housing au-
thority. Ultimately it recommend
ed that the authority be placed
directly under the District Gov
eminent. This, Mr.. Ihlder said,
is counter to current Congress
sional recommendations, based on
extensive study, that the author
ity continue as an independent
Federal agency.
The original Hoover Commis-
sion recommendation, if followed,
would have had the authority re-
porting to the head of the Cen
eral Services Administration.

Sour cream cookery Is o field In

cream is used.
A few simple rules suffiee 10
make sour cream cookery clear 10
any one. Remember that cup OF
sour milk or cream Is generally
neutralized by u teaspoon Of bak-
ing soda. However. when o recipe
also calls for brown sugar and mo-
lasses, more soda will be needed.
II sour cream is added 70 sauces
and allowed 70 boil. it is pretty
sure TO curdle. II Is best 10 make
the sauce. and then remove the
pan from direct heat. stirring N
the sour cream, and just reheat
to the simmering point.
Buttermilk may be used In
place of sour milk In the same
proportions. Two tablespoons OF
butter and o cup of sour milk
equals q cup of sour cream in
recipes for baking.
II you don't have sour milk on
hand 1t is easily made by adding :
tablespoons Of lemon juice or vim
egar to each cup of sweet milk.
Stir sour milk hatters as little
and as quickly as possible. Bake
In a preheated oven.
One Of our favorite party recipes
calls for squads prepared in this
way:
Have the poultryman split the
squads down the back and take
out the breastbones. Melt some
sweet butter In a skillet. salt and
pepper the squads and then brown
them on both sides in the butter.
When they are done. put them TO
keep warm on a hot platter, and
add O cup of tomato puree TO the
butter In the pan. and season with
IL teaspoon minced basil or ore
gano, some minced parsley and a
tablespoon Of chopped chives.
Simmer and blend for q few min
utes, remove from fire and stir in
a cupful of sour cream. Reheat
Just to simmering. and pour over
the squads before serving.
