FIRST FRUITS OF SEASON
MAKE LUSCIOUS TOPPING
FOR DROMEDARY SHEVUOTH
CAKE

With Shevuoth so close at hand,
the exciting aroma of holiday
baking will soon fill the air in
many a home, often for the first
time in a generation or more. But
happily, the return of this fondly
familiar fragrance, reviving mem
cries of a cherished old fashioned
kitchen art, has not revived the
old-fashioned methods that &C.
companied it.
Thanks to the exclusive advan-
tages of new Dromedary Cake
Mixes, never before available lin
any other method or any other
mix.) you can now achieve results
which grandma with all her bak-
ing skill would never have dream
ed 'possible-and it's just a matter
of minutes to do what took her
hours.
Dromedary's exclusive new
shortening, not available in any
other mix at any price, gives you
higher, richer, more tender-tex-
tured cakes; Dromedary's pre-
Dreaming process-another exclu-
sive feature-gives you a super
smooth batter with effortless ease.
And the handy Dromedary twin
pack, not found in any other mix,
enables you to bake both cake and
cookies Cor tarts, if you prefer,
with the same package of Drome-
Diary Mix-and without the need
to do any measuring or dividing.

SAOSO 80 HN1S0O HSA0OAAO'
Since then. there have been
about 800 new cases of polio in
Israel every summer. an incidence
of five per 10000 taking into &C.
count the increase in population).
That is still twice the rate in the
United States.
A popularity of polio in Israel
is the fact that it has struck with
particular force the very youngest
age group. Whereas, in America,
children of the first grades in
school are the most affected, in
Israel almost all the sufferers are
infants. Seventy-nine per cent of
all the afflicted children are under
3 years of age and 81 per cent
were under 5 years.
II is probably too much to hope
that Israel will be able to import
sufficient Salk vaccine to innocu-
late all children under 8 before
this summers polio season is upon
US. But by next year. we shall be
manufacturing our own vaccine
according TO the Salk formula.
Preparatory work is currently
going on at four virus laboratories
in this country. including that Of
the Hebrew UniversitY-Hadassah
Medical School. The Ministry Of
Health is now negotiationg for the
services of an American expert
who will come here TO supervise
production.

Polio is a peculiar disease, strik-
ing only in countries having high
standards of hygiene. In Israel,
polio is epidemic. In the neighbor-
ing Arab countries, it is virtually
unknown. Until 1850, the number
of polio cases in Israel was neg
ligible. In that year it came upon
us almost without warning, like
the tenth plague in ancient Egypt.
Sixteen hundred and four chill
dren were stricken, over 80 per
cent of whom became paralyzed.
That was a rate of 14.5 cases per
10000 population, as against an
average annual incidence in the
United States of two or three

Control of Union Sought
Schomaker said that prior to
the general strike of 1885 the
party was engaged in a fight
to get control of the AFL Sailors
Union of the Pacific. and that
the first step to enlist Bridges
was the formulation of a pro-

leader would accept.
