large bushy tail, is sitting up
just begging to be bought.
The proceeds from the sale of
the pins and the leagues Easter
seals are divided between the
state chapter and the county in

A small group of Senators and
Representatives today set out to
whip into shape a compromise
bill vastly expanding the Federal
security program for the aged
and needy.
They expect to develop for ac-
ton. before Congress adjourns, a
measure that:
/. Blankets about 10 million
more working people under the
old-age and survivors insurance
program, boosting the number of
covered persons to IS million.
The largest groups being consid-
cred for inclusion are household
workers. farm workers and the
self-employed.
Some Benefits Doubled.

the aged and to dependent chill
dren under this insurance pro-
gram. and also increases public
assistance benefits for needy aged.

help pay for the expanded pro-
grams.
Both Senate and House already
have passed bills with these gen.
eral objectives. They differ in
some details, so conferees from
the House and Senate will smooth
the differences.

With our erratic spring weather

Inc, ($295) is written for the
American cook who enjoys tradi-
tional French cookery. The fore
word by T. C. Rapp, British Am
bassador to Mexico, explains the
unusual circumstances under
which the book was written. The
author. Germaine Carter, comes
from a North of France family
who practiced the art of cooking
as only the French understand it.
During World War II Nine. Car
ter, along with her husband, was
interned for six long years in vari-
GUS German prison camps. 1t was
during this period she met Mr..
Rapp when the two were destined
to be fellow captives for a matter
of two years. With the aid of the
contents Of Red Cross parcels,
Nine. Carter managed to produce
some unbelievably good food even
though 1t was extremely simple
in nature It was during the winter
Va 4ox4-x W11CIl VIC OuGlOOk WAS
very grim, and the Illustrations of
internment were becoming un-
bearable, that the idea of the cook
book was conceived. The three of
them Mr.. Rapp, Germaine
and her husband used to plan
meals they would enjoy together
after the war was over. They
spent hours brooding over the
four recipe books she had man
aged to salvage. But once the idea
of a cook book came to their minds
they worked on it nearly every
evening in spite of the good-na-
tured chatting Of their fellow in
ternees. The author has by passed
the elaborate, complicated type of
French cooking in her book and
has concentrated on recipes that
can be followed with a minimum
of effort. AS to be expected she
makes use Of wine and herbs in
most Of her recipes, but in the
main, she sticks to ingredients
that will be found in any we'll
stocked kitchen.

same conditions as she ordinarily
keeps finished baked foods and
experience no undue difficulty with
mold. Unlike the fully baked pro-
ducts, the brown and serve" rolls
and breads may be refrigerated
without any damaging effect to
provide further protection against
mold growth in unusually diff
cult weather. They have found,
too. that the housewife will obtain
a better product if she completes
the baking at a temperature of
400 to 425 degree F. instead of the
higher temperatures which were
originally recommended.
For breakfast on that holiday
morning start your family off
with the new cereal that has just
made its debut on the Washington
scene. This cereal consists of
crunchy puffed wheat coated with
sugar and honey. Because it is
pre-sweetened, it needs no sugar,
you merely add milk and serve.
In addition to it's use as a break
fast cereal it makes a wholesome
snack for nibbling. The kids will
eat it right out of the bag as a
confection. It seems to me it has
possibilities as a topping for ice
cream too. You'll see it around
on the grocery shelves in cello
phane bags which are transparent
to show the toasted wheat puffs
inside.
