weather meats are among the
weeks best buys. Cold cuts and
canned meats are good to eat, easy
to serve and economical for sum-
mer meals. Most of them are versa
tile and can be served hot or cold,
as a main dish or snack, and alone
or in combination with other foods.
Bologna is least expensive among
The cold cuts, followed by combina-
ton loaves. liverwurst, minced
ham, salami and pressed corned
beef In that order. Handy canned
meats at reasonable prices include
luncheon meat, potted meats, beef
stew, corned beef hash and vienna
sausage.
Other attractively priced meats
for convenient indeor meals or for
outdoor cooking are young Della
ware chicken for barbecuing or fry
ing. ground beef and frankfurters.
Tom and Beltsville turkeys re-
main good buys this. week. Most
beef cuts, especially roasts, are very
economical.

poth are available at moderate pric-
es. Low priced fresh fish from near

kets, the most popular varieties be-
ing sea bass, sea trout, whiting,

Larger supplies of cantaloupes
have weakened prices. Select 'lopes
with prominent netting and with a
delicate aroma which indicates
ripeness. Avoid over-ripe melons,
those with very deep yellow color
beneath the netting. Ripe melons
can be stored in the refrigerator

other foods if they are wrapped in
foil or placed in a polyethylene
bag.

Bring 1t Back Home

Because the original move was illogical,
there is lot Of merit in Senator Buffers
request to President Eisenhower that the
Civil Defense Administration be brought
back to the Washington area from Battle
Creek, Michigan. It was illogical to single
out Civil Defense for such drastic dispersal
move, while leaving in this target area"
such sensitive agencies as the Defense De-
partment, the Atomic Energy Commission
and the Central Intelligence Agency. Even
more illogical is the splitting up Of CDA,
with the administrator and his staff Of
about Is assistants staying in Washington
and the remainder of the personnel working
at Battle Creek The extra time and ex-
pense involved in operating such divided
organization must be enormous. And the
quarters at Battle Creek are apt to be
needed by the Army in an atomic or other
emergency, for they are former military
hospital facilities still owned by the Gov
eminent.
The return Of CDA to Washington or
its suburbs would contribute to the agency's
efficiency. Certainly II the CHA feels that
1t IS safe to remain in the Washington Met
ropolitan Area, as is indicated by It's plans
for new building near Langley, Virginia,
the cDA ought to feel equally secure here.

PouIV. McNutt

Paul v. McNutt, dead at So, was pic
turesque figure on the American political
scene. OF striking appearance and per-
sonality, his public career from 1928 to 1947
was comparably colorful and controversial.
Mr.. McNutt was one of the first of the
World War veterans to vault from promi-
nence in veterans affairs to- prominence in
national politics. Chosen commander Of the
American Legion in 1928, he built upon that
activity to become Governor in 1882 Of his
home State Of Indiana. His four years in
that ONCE brought him criticism and COM
mendation, along with increased recognition

Party. He made no secret Of his presidential

aspirations but that dream ended when the
late Franklin D. Roosevelt decided to run
In 1910 for third term as President. Mr..
McNutt Withdrew his own candidacy, for
either the first or second places ON the
ticket, In dramatic appearance before the
Democratic convention in Chicago. During
World War II he served both President
Roosevelt and President Truman And after
second term as High Commissioner of the
Philippines he was our first ambassador to
that newly Independent country. He had
been In private business since 1947.
His death thins the ranks of those who
were prominent In the historic years of the
depression, the New Deal era and the worlds
greatest war.

power greater than himself. The only
thing that makes sense is God.
The practice of the presence OF God
is not an opiate, as a false philosophy
Is loudly proclaiming. On the contrary,
it is the one constructive dynamic. All
history shouts, as Holy Scripture as
ssrts: ''The people that do know their
God shall be strong and do exploits"
1t is the undeniable record of the
unfolding centuries that in proportion
to the power of religion over the ma
ticnal mind has been the greatness Of
the nation and the height to which
1t has attained in the scale Of achieve
ment.
The new shrine dedicated to culti-
waiting the reality of the God who is
acknowledged in the oath and on the
currency, and now in the Pledge to the
Flag. Is not just pleasant, passing
compliment to the Maker of heaven

man, a philosopher, scientist or
novelist says complimentary things
about religion he is quoted as II it were

the awesome reality of God. That is the
fact behind every thought of the brain
and every beat of the heart and every
breath of the body. It is the element
in which we have our being. It is the
final, irreducible and unacceptable de-
nominator of the universe, God.
1t Is eminently fitting that in that

Spires of the Spirit
A. National Altar

The idea of national altar In the
Capital of the Nation is not new.
George Washington, who laid the cor
nerstone of the Capitol, desired that
in the new city bearing his name there
should be set up by authorization of
the new government place Of prayer
and worship. At last. there is such an
altar under the white dome. No reli-
gious event of 1855 is more freighted
with meaning. The nature of this
shrine OF the spiritual is an affirmation
not of any union of state and church,
but of the union of the state and reli-
gion. That is the very foundation of
our Republic, as those testified who
prayed around the cradle of the state.
In no uncertain tones. Washington
warned that even the pillars of morality
would collapse without religious foun-
dalton. The present Chief Executive
began his term of Office by solemnly
declaring: 1.-THE basic doctrine to which
we must always cling is that our form
of government is founded on religion.
It has no sense unless it is based on
deeply felt religious faith" The Con-
gress is only witnessing to that under
girding belief when, by the combined
action of the Senate and the House OF
Representatives, a chapel of prayer and
meditation is now officially established
where the more than 500 national
legislators can be alone with their
better selves and with their God. And
so, at the very center of the Republics
life is now designated "an upper ROOM"
dedicated to quietneSS and to- prayer
that is listening, as well as petitioning,
and where the commotion of the big,
buzzing confusion of the business OF
government is hushed. Here is pro-
vided a cloister of sacramental silence
whose constant invitation is: BE still,
and know that am Cod"
Through the resounding marble cor
ridors moves a constant stream OF
eager and fascinated pilgrims Of all
ages, from all the States and from
all the earth. The imposing structure,
plus the Senate and the House Office
Buildings, is a complicated world in
itself. Interests and causes so vast
in their ramifications that they seem
beyond comprehension center on that
high hill of the Nation. Life under
the dome is hectic, full Of tension and
often fraught with sense of frustra-
ton.
Certainly every national lawmaker
worthy to sit in one of the seats of
lofty eminence. confronted by demands
which his mind can scarcely catalog.
let alone adequately meet, must cry
in his inner spirit: Who is sufficient

If, too, the underground lines were
extended far enough into the suburban
areas in Maryland and Virginia an ad-
ditional means of mass evacuation to
reconstructed shelters or escape arte-

of such lines could be practically en-
ployed to speed evacuation, limit the

An adequate subway system may not
answer all of our problems connected
with civil defense, but it could make
material contribution to the safety of

such a purpose in 1901. and Wash
