higher milk prices, one jarring
note rang out at a State Milk
Commission hearing here. The
Early Dawn Cooperative Dairy OF
Waynesboro saw no need for q
price boost.
The cooperative yesterday also
urged that separate milk control
boards be set up for Sta.inton and
Waynesboro. Both. citieseare un-
der one boards jurisdiction now.
The co-operative's price stand
was bitterly attacked by E. E
Keister, milk producer and own.

newspaper in Strasburg.

Operatives are exempt from GER

the Associated Press, deploring
what it termed increasing threats
of censorship. has set up perma-
nent committee to combat Incl

Earlier. the group heard a
lengthy discussion of specific in
stances of news suppression. The
speakers centered their talks on
problems of closed meetings by
local governmental groups, and
measures taken to open such ses-
sions to the press.
Former Gov. Lane Of Maryland,
publisher of the Hagerstown (Md.)
Herald-Mail. pointed out that one
element in, officials reluctance to
open their deliberations to the
public might be fear of unfair
press reports.
To offset this. he said, news
papers should guarantee capable
and understanding" reporting of
the sessions.
Members of the committee will
be appointed by w. T. Delaplaine
of the Frederick MD News-Post,
association.
Its functions, officials said, will
be similar to those of a watch

zette.
Operations Described.
Describing operations of that

cation, which for 80 years had
maintained a policy of closed ses-.
Sions.
The association devoted part of
its meeting to a discussion of the
new teletypesetter circuits being

this system can be installed in
offices in such a way
that linotype machines automati-
cally transfer wire service stories
into type, ready to be printed.

serving newspapers in this area
will be ready for conversion to the
new system next March. The
first circuit was started in North
Carolina last April.

K Report to the
Housewife

g. Company (S3.95). In addition
to the hundreds of recipes de-
veloped by Ann Pillsbury and her
staff of home economists, the
book also contains the 100 prize
winning recipes from the first
grand national baking contest.
There are simple recipes even the
novice can handle as well as
"show-off" recipes created by
baking experts. In the chapter on
breads there are step by step pic
lures showing how to shape the
loaf. testing the dough for light
ness, and comparative size of
risen and unrisen loaf.
1t seems shame they didn't
include picture showing how to
knead bread which would be of
considerable help to the beginner.
The black and white cuts show
ing how to shape various kinds
of rolls are very good. In
'cluded in the bread recipes
is one from a contest winner
for crusty French bread. This
recipe was coaxed out of q
French chef in a small cafe on
the road to Paris" says Mrs. Roy
OF Birmingham, Ala. I'VE enjoyed
this bread SO much that he broke
down and told us his way of max
ing this delicious, crispy, hard
crusted bread" Another prize
winner, Mr.. James Ncwma., CT St.
Louis, gives his recipe for a meal
in-one dinner. While there are
number of black-and-white cuts
throughout the book, there is a
dearth of colored plates which
tends to make the book drab. It
is neither as comprehensive nor
as colorful a book as that pub
lished by their rival milling COM
pany, Betty Crocker's Cook
Book" Here's a poor mans
zaba slic:::, rl-E, without fuss,
muss or bother. Prepare l pack

to directions on carton, but use
only 112 cups milk. Remove
from heat and stir in u cup
sherry. Beat egg whites until
stiff but not dry; pour hot pud-
ding over them: stir gently until
no trace of egg white remains.
Pour into sherbet glasses; chill.
Serve plain or with whipped
cream. Serves 4.

Another new cooky recipe has
just been announced by one OF
the large milling companies
About a year ago the same COM
pany developed q peanut butter
cooky using their prepared bis
cult mix. Like the first, this cooky
is a good family-type cooky for
it keeps we'll, remaining moist
and delicious for days. In fact.
they claim the flavor actually i'm
proves with age.
A feature that will make a hit
with the busy homemaker Is the
simplicity of this recipe. It's
really a new-fashioned version of
an old-fashioned favorite. The
entire mixing operation, up to
actual baking, is done in a sauce
pan which cuts down on the
number of dishes involved in
preparation. Here's the way to
make them: Place one 9-ounce
package of condensed mince meat
in a saucepan. Break into pieces
with a fork. Add one 1412-ounce
can of undiluted evaporated milk.
Slowly bring to a simmer, stirring
frequently, until Jumps are broken
up. Continue cooking slowly about
10 minutes or until mixture is no
longer runny. Mix in 2 cups pre-
pared biscuit mix, l cup brown
sugar (flrmly packed, and u
teaspoon salt. Dough should be
of a soft, slightly sticky consist
ency. Drop by teaspoonfuls about
two inches apart on creased
cooky sheet. Bake about 10
minutes in moderately hot oven
(400 degree F. until lightly
Drowned. Makes about 31a dozen
2 Inch cookies.
If variations are desired, add
l cup chopped nuts, or l cup
coconut. or l teaspoon cloves and
2 teaspoons cinnamon to the
cooky mixture after the other
ingredients have been added, Sti,
until blended.
Since this is National Turn to
Tea Week serve this age-oid
brew with your fresh cookies.
Tea is a wonderful, stimulating
pick-me-up for between meal
snacks just as it is right for any
meal.

In appreciation of the informa-

ing the cleaning of gilt mirror

I have successfully cleaned a
half-dozen or more antique gilt
picture and mirror frames by
making a thick suds of powder
snow and rubbing gently with soft
cloth dipped in the suds. The
frames I frightened were very
dirty having been stored uncov-
cred in dusty stable for many
years. The gilt did not come of
but the dirt did.
fFrom Mrs. E. r. B., ArlingtonJ
The following is copied from
House and Garden Magazine:
'NeVer rub. never apply pressure
and you'll fare well in keeping
gilt frames lovely. Dust them
with the softest bristle brush you
can find.
When they need washing a half
and-half solution of ammonia
and denatured alcohol does the
trick harmleSsly. But sponge
gently, small area at a time
with a cheesecloth pad, taking up
the soil with a dry pad again
gently. A light once-over yearly
