Is there any easy way to re-

that adheres to a fresh COCO
nut after it has been cracked
out of the shell? Now that
fruit cake time is here, I must
admit I have great success in
burning the bottoms of my
cakes. Could I process them
in a big pressure cooker?
Would the batter have to be
any different? Should they be
baked awhile after removing
from cooker? How can peanut
butter be prepared to use as
the center of a piece of choc-
olate candy? ! like a maca-
room center and I have a mac
aroon paste, but 1t is too sharp
in flavor as is. What should
do with it? What is the agent
that makes cocoanut moist
inside a bonbon? Again, I
have the right kind of Coco
. nut, but don't know how to
prepare it. Laboriously with
a hand cracker, I crack pecans
and shred my fingers getting
large pieces out of the shell.
Is there any other type Of
cracker for pecans? And last
ly, is there q cracker for black
walnuts other than the ham
mer, which either smashes
them to smithereens or doesn't
crack them enough? Thanks
so much for your help.

Folks planning to attend the

Thursday evening had better take
a lunch - ii appears that they are
going to be there for a long time.
Let's use a little arithmetic.
Assuming that all II city com
mission candidates put in an ap-
pearance and each is allotted 10
minutes to speak -- it will require
total of 10 minutes for them to
make their pitches.
Just for the sake of discussion
- wen allow two minutes for the
introduction of each speaker in.
GLIDING applause. Moderator Jack
Clarke will probably use 10 minutes
in outlining the rules.
| Add that all up and you'll see
that it will require a total of 3
hours and "a minutes for the can
didate TO say their pieces.
/ Pity the poor speaker who Is on
the tail end of such a marathon -
there won't be any audience left
in the hall.
| The BPW committee who ar
ranged the affair has stated that
the candidates should have the ans
wers to IS questions.
A glance at the questionable that
was mailed TO the speakers and
published in The Citizen, shows
that there are, in reality, 20 ques.
tions.
For example, Question No. Four:
Do you see any reduction in utili-
ty rates? If so, where? How?
The way look at it, Question No.
is amounts to three questions. And,
there are a lot more like it.
Hence, that will allow each
speaker something less than 20
seconds to discuss each question.
1t seems to us that the speaker
should be allowed to clarity his
stand on the issues. If he is against
something, he should be allowed to
explain why. He might be on the
right track.
Some of the candidates may play
! it cute and answer all the ques.
tons in about 80 seconds and then
use the remainder of the time to
say what they have on their mind.

and 1858.
The Rockefellers, the Melons,
the Pews and the duPonts contrib
uted handsomely to the Republican
National Committee, while the cot
fers of the Democratic National

years. Federal law prohibits any
individual from donating more
than $1,000 to a national political
party, but puts no limitation on
how many members of the same
family may give the maximum.
Neither does it require publica.
ton of the names of donors to
political groups which are not ma.
tional. such as state committees.
The Rockefellers, for example,
gave $1,000 to the COP National
Committee in 1852. Contributions
of $1,000 each we're made by Lau-
rance Rockefeller, David Rookie
Teller, Winthrop Rockefeller and
John D. Rockefeller III, all of New
York, while John D. Rockefeller
Jr.. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller
Jr. gave $4,000 each.
The duPontS Of Delaware made
four separate donations totaling
$4,000 to the Republican cause.
The Melons of Pittsburgh went
over the 5000 mark with four dom
atoms to the COP.
Pews of Philadelphia tossed
$12, 900 into the COP treasury and
the Lilly family of indianapolis
contributed 5000 TO the Republi.
cans,
Two contributions totaling $4,000
were made to the Democratic Ma.
tional Committee by Angler Biddle
Duke of New York.
From the Sonneboms OF New
York the Democrats received SIS.
900 in separate donations.
Separate contributions Of $2,SOO
each were made in the name OF
Dorothy Vredenburg and Mrs. Dor.
othy Vredenburg. while q 5000
donation was attributed to Peter
Vredenburg III. The .Vredenburgs
are from Birmingham.
Mrs. Perle S. Mesta, who was
minister to Luxembourg under the
Democrats, gave that party $4,000,
Marshall Field and Mrs. Mar.
shall Field of New York and Chi.
.cago aided the Democratic cause
by $1,000 each.
