What other method of cooking
can compare with the electric way
-. the happy, modern, carefree
way of cooking! What other me-
thod is as safe and as clean!
Electric cooking is easy and ac-
curate. You simply put your meal
In the oven, set automatic con-
trolls, and your meal Ia cooked to
perfection and your oven turned
off automatically. What simplici-
ty compared to old-fashioned cook
ing! There's no need to haste :.
or open the oven door to contin-
ually check up on the progress OF
the meal. Simply follow the recipe,
and you know it's right.
Electric cooking is nutritious. 1t
is modern cooking that seals in
the taste and flavor Of good meats.
1t is waterless cooking that keeps
the bodybuilding vitamins and
minerals in vegetables and fruits
that retains the good juices
that mean so much to health and
sturdy bodies.
Electric cooking Ia cool cook
ing. The fully insulated oven and
the surface units and close-fitting
utensils keep the heat where 1t be-
longs concentrates 1t upon the
cooking operation . D.. and cooks
the meal instead OF the cook. In
fact, SO little heat escapes that
even with a full Sunday dinner in
the oven your kitchen is as cool
and comfortable as any room in
the house What blessing when
you've been accustomed to work
ing over steaming hot, old-fash-
toned cook stove!.
For homes where either a small
or portable but complete cooking
unit is necessary, there is the cleo
trio rooster. Compact and effici-
emit, this modern cooking device
occupies approximately two and
one-half square feet of shelf or
table space, plugs In any conven-
lent outlet, and cooks complete
meal for six people :. meat, vege-
tables, yes, even DESSERT.
Electric roasters are ideal for
eonfine' Kitchens, summer cot
tages or hunting camps and
what a blessing to the picnic-lov-
ing family! You can cook your
picnic meal at home in the roast
er then put the whole thing,
rooster and meal, right in yLur
car and the insulated roast
err will keep the meal piping hot
until you're ready to serve.
An electric rooster will broil.
bake, fry, stew, grill or roast /.
and offers you many of the same
cooking advantages as the cleo
trio range--cleaniiness simplicity!
speed! safety! GOODNESS! tempera-
ture controls! And even a time
control is available for starting
and stopping the cooking opera
ton at the proper time.

1t noted that five of the eight
Army training centers In this

The report noted that much

both a direct and indirect ex-

Many recreational facilities
we're acquired at permanent bases

PARIS, Dec. 26.-Russia, An

The so or so United Nations
delegates who were unable to un-
Iderstand Russian had their head
phones on listening to the simul-
Itaneous Interpretation.
Mr.. Vishinsky's speech was bonn
bastic and critical of the West.
When he finished, Brazilian
Delegate Mario de Pimentel Bran
dao asked for the floor.
'"The Soviet delegate" he stated
seems to think that he can prove
his points by banging his fist on
the table as he speaks. Banging
Ia table proves nothing"
Mr.. Vishinsky protested. He
denied that he had banged the
table. He said he had waved his
arms, raised his voice but he had
not banged the table.
But all of those listening to the
English translation Of his speech
had heard the table humping.
Mr.. Vishinsky stated that here
was another proof that many of
the MISUNDERSTANDING between
Russia and the West were i'm
|agined rather than real.
Then it occurred to the dele
gates what had happened.
The interpreter, sitting in a
booth high off the floor, had given
a very realistic Interpretation of
Mr.. Vishinsky's speech.

eign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky.
The King was reported to be
comforting with Wafdist Premier
Mustafa FL Nahas Pasha, who
must have been angered by the
palace appointment.
Cautious Course Indicated.
Indications are that the Wafd
Party has not yet made up its
mind what to do in the face of
this challenge to its foreign policy
from the palace itself. Western
observers agree that Afifi is sure
to seek settlemnt of some sort
with Britain and alignment with
the Vests defenSes. But public
opinion has been set aflame with
Nationalist cries for immediate
departure of the British and Afifi's
course would require much eau
ton.
The Nahas government has
shown up to now it can keep the
demonstrations from getting out
of hand. A month ago it banned
demonstrations and ordered police
to fire on demonstrators. But to-
days scattered demonstrations
were reported from a number of
points.

newspaper reports that bands of

any such attacks.
Gen. Erskine said the threat

British forces are unofficially re-

tanks and supporting air and

Alexandra Council
Will Discuss Charter
Revisions Tonight

Proposed changes in Alexan-
dria'S 18-month- charter will
be considered at a meeting of the
City Council tonight.
The revisions have been pre-
pared by a three-member commit
tee of council and by a charter
commission.
One amendment would elimi-
nate any possibility Of non-parti-
san elections, making partisan
elections in conformance with
State law mandatory.
The Alexandria charter, when
it was drafted several years ago,
provided for non-partisan local
elections which the voters had
favored in referendum a short
time earlier. The 1850 General
Assembly. however. deleted the
provision requiring non-partisan
elections. City officials were of
the opinion that the State Legis-
lature's action was intended to
require partisan elections, and
the new charter amendment
clarifies the status of Alexandria
elections.
Also on the list of changes are
a requirement. for election of the
mayor and vice mayor by popular
vote and appointment of the Ju-
venile and Domestic Relations
Court judge by judges of the
courts of record. The charter now
provides for election of the mayor
and vice mayor by a vote of Coun-
Gil and for election Of juvenile
judge by popular vote. The pro-
posed changes were approved in
an advisory referendum in No
vember.
l. Require the city manager to-
advise the City Council of major
dismissals and appointments at
the time they are made.
2. Dispense with the full read
ing of city ordinances at Council
provided councilmen get
a copy three days in advance
and the public is provided with a
synopsis.
3. Create two new voting wards
in the territory to be annexed
from Fairfax County at midnight
