Time. Money and Food

If you work away from home
or have small children to care for
you probably often find it hard
to find time to prepare the tasty
and nutritious yet economical
meals you'd like.
Here are few tips that might
help you with this problem.
Compare the cost of those pro-
cessed foods you buy - canned,
frozen and dried, with fresh foods.
II the difference in cost is large
it may pay to cook some the day
or night before, store them in the
refrigerator and reheat for serv-
ing. You can let stew, pot
roast or soup simmer or beans
bake slowly while you're doing
other tasks.
Baked cookies, cakes or bread
that include fruit, brown sugar,
molasses or honey do not dry out
as rapidly as others. When you
have chance to bake, make an
extra supply including these in
gradients.
Vegetables usually should not
be cooked ahead and reheated
because of loss of flavor and nu-
tritive value. But time may be
saved by washing, trimming and
preparing fresh vegetables for
cooking in advance, if they're kept
properly covered and refrigerated.

have seen more terracing of
farm lands in the past couple of
weeks than the U. S. Department
of Agriculture ever dreamed of.
These people literally nurse
every square foot of ground, most
OF which has been cultivated for
more than two thousand years.
Yet the rivers from the Arno to
the 'Tiber are as muddy as Missis-
sippi and Alabama streams after
the spring rains.
The Carbones engineered pri-
vate audience with the Pope.
They were as impressed as four
Irish lads we met at our Pensione

Quoting the service in Latin, he
spoke to the wildly enthusiastic
crowd in fluent Italian, German,
French, English and Spanish.
There is probably no more popu-
lar church Official in the world.
Yet, in our limited contacts, we
have run into great deal of anti
clericalism in Italy.
Italians are avid newspaper
readers and apparently take their
politics as seriously as they do
their family life and eating.
Rome, Milan and Florence are
plastered with political broad
sides. sometimes three and four
deep on the walls of every type
Of building. The communists and
ants must have a merry time
pulling down and defacing each
others posters. Criticism of the
government is outspoken, which |
must be something of a luxury |
after the days of Mussolini. Incl
dentally, his famous balcony in
Rome is quite unimpressive, but
significantly big enough for him
self alone. I suppose that hun
dred thousand people could have
been jammed into the Piazza
Venezia to hear him.
From the train window we saw
a beautiful horse-drawn hearse
followed by at least fifty people
of all ages on bicycles.
Eating in the famous Trattorie
of Rome and Florence was al
ways an adventure, not only be-
cause of our constant amazement
at the food available, but also be-
cause we were never quite sure
as to what we were going to get.
In fact, we weren't too sure after
we had eaten it. Saltimbocca,
sgaloppe al Marsalla, ossobucco,
and stracciatella will be house
hold words in the family - for a
week or so anyway. Southerners
would soon take to corn meal
dish called polenta which is the
mainstay of many peasants din
ner. In Britain only Americans
drink water with their meals; here
we always have water on the ia
hle but wine has somehow become
very acceptable substitute. No
connection, of course, but we have
vet to see a drunk in Italy.
We were among the first few
hundred to go through the new
ly opened porta santa into st.
Peters. Tens of thousands of Am
orleans will visit Italy in this first
Holy Year since 1925.
While prices in Italy run about
the same as in the United States
the value on human labor is
phenomenally low. For instance

libel actions totaling IS million
have been filed in Federal Court
against the Readers Digest Asso-
citation and the Dell Publishing
Co. by Gov. James E. Folsom OF
Alabama and three officials of
that State.
The complaints are based on an
article in the October issue of
Readers Digest. describing alleged

Devils Island. U. S. A." dealing
with Kilby Prison in Alabama,
was a condensation of a story in
the September issue of the maga-
zine Front Page Detective" pub
lished by the Dell Publishing Co.
Gov. Folsom said he warned the
Readers Digest in advance that he
considered the article libelous.
Gov. Folsom has asked for 81
million in damages from the
Readers Digest and 100000 from
the Dell Publishing Co.
William Drinkard and Glen
Vinson, members of the Alabama
State Board Of Pardons and
Paroles, each sued the Dell Pub
fishing Co. for $500. 900 and seek a
similar amount from the Readers
Digest Association.
Frank Boswell, director of the

tions and Institutions, has asked
for 81 million from the Readers

Such temporary workers were

The Commission feels, how

much good for temporary work
ers and wasn't worth the effort
thai such a program entailed
during the last war. Commission
officials say that, once the de-
fense effort is ended and the tenn
porary workers are released from
military life, the Government
will start dismissing all of its
temporary employees. Conse-
quently, there won't be any tenn
porary jobs for these former en-

Psychiatrist Believes
Brown Was Insane
AT Time Of Staying

A defense psychiatrist today in
dicated in District Court that he
believes Charlie (Three-Fingers)
Brown was out of his mind when
he beat Raymond big Red" Lewis
to death with a baseball bat last
June near the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition.
The psychiatrist, DR.. Robert P.
Odenwald, an assistant professor
at Catholic University and prac-
titioner for 81 years, was placed on
the stand by Defense Counsel
John M. Webster. Brown, SIS, OF
the 400 block of Sixth street NV,
is on trial for his life before a
jury and Judge Henry A. Schwein-
haut.
DR.. Odenwald was asked his
opinion of Browns mental condi-
ton at the time of the beating.
He replied. +-
"If man reaches the stage
that he can swing a baseball bat
with full force across the face of
another man, not once but five or
six times, then walk away and 60
to sleep. I doubt that he knew at
this moment what he was doing"
Prosecutor Cecil Hef1in is ex-
pected to introduce Gallinger
Hospital Psychiatrists Joseph Gil
bert and Amino Perretti as re-
buttal witnesses this afternoon.
In brief memoranda to the court,
these psychiatrists already have
stated they consider Brown of
sound mind.
The defendant oenled on the
stand yesterday that he ever had
any intention of killing Lewis and
said he does not remember strik-
ing him.
A defense witness yesterday was
Mrs. Louise Roston, who managed
the rooming house in which Brown
lived on Sixth street NV. at the
time of the Staying. Mrs. Roston
testified Brown was mumbling so
you could hardly understand
what he was saying" when he
walked out Of the house before

that he was not staggering.

Haviland Field, former State De-
partment aide. missing behind
the Iron Curtain since June of last
year. is Soviet-style VIP, being
given grand tour of the work
ers' paradise" according to Soviet
sources in East Berlin who have
proven reliable as informants in
the past.
Several members of Fields FAM
lily, including his wife, Herta
Katherine. and his brother. Her.
man N, have Joined him behind
the curtain. He was at one time
rumored to be an American coun-
ter-espionage agent. A search has
been on for him through Ameri-
can Embassies and Offices in most
of Europe.
1t can now be revealed that
Field crossed" at Berlin and was
put up for several weeks at Guest
House No. l of the Soviet Control
Commission at Berlin -Adlershof.
Although under close guard, Field
was received as a guest of the
Berlin chapter of the Communist
Party of Soviet Russia. Despite
his guest status, he was repeatedly
interrogated closely.
Being Shown Bright Spots.
Now Field is repeatedly in Soviet
Russia with his family, as guest
of the Soviet government. He is
making tour of the U. S. S. r.
but only being the bright spots:
1--WE want Mr.. Field to get the
best possible impression of the
land of his choice" the source Of
this information was told.
Reports say he is being received
enthusiastically everywhere. He is
being impressed with the peace
full" intentions and progressive"
attitudes of Russia-as a first
class guest Of Intourist, the Soviet
travel organization. Meanwhile.
his family is waiting for him in
luxurious quarters deep inside
Russia.
The confidential source of the
foregoing believes Field is being
groomed to take an active part
eventually in the Soviet propa-
ganda organization.
1t was his own idea to cross to
the Reds.
Incidentally, the above facts
have all been known for some
time to the Tass newsmen in East
! Berlin.
Denounced by Both Sides.
Noel Field has been denounced
in court on both sides of the Iron
Curtain-in the United States
and in Hungary.
During the Alger Hiss trial in
New York last year, Mrs. Hede
Masslng. former wife of Com
munist leader Gerhard Eisler, tes-
titled that she and Hiss argued
in 1885 as to which of them
should command Fields services
in the Communist underground
in Washington.
Field was accused as a spy for
the State Department., trying to
establish Titoism in Hungary. dur
ing the treason trial of some for
mer Communist leaders in that
satellite country last year.
He did not appear during either
trial.
Field worked for the State De-
partment from 1880 to 1885. He
later worked for the League Of
Nations in Geneva, and during
World War II was connected with
OSS operations in Switzerland,
