 Good for Expeditions
 Though it is entirely possible that most households will con- tinue to regard dehydrated food as an emergency measure, it has many advantages for specialized pursuits-such as antarctic expe- ditions. Explorers could carry food which would remain edible for years.
 Weight and space problems of storage are considerably reduced. For example, a five-ounce dried pack of compressed, cooked minced pork and beef weighs one pound when reconstituted and, even in tropical climates, will remain in good condition for at least two years.

British Information Seryices)

You can, of course, if you are ruggedly conservative, buy your food fresh and cook it in the oven and it has to be admitted that this is the method still generally preferred in the British Isles. But it may not always be this way, if recent achievements of British government experts develop com mercial possibilities.
 For the experts, scientists at Food Ministry research station near Aberdeen, have just demon strated that a tasty meal-of chopped beef, mashed potatoes, and yellow turnips, for instance, preceded by soup and followed by apple puree, if you want to make formal occasion of it. can be carried around in match box in dried form to be reconsti- tuted and made extremely pala- table by the mere addition of hot water.
 Better Flavor
 This extension of the process of dehydration used in World War II is claimed to be far more eff cient and productive of much bet ter flavor and more attractive appearance than anything hereto fore achieved in this field.
 The development is believed to have been spurred by require ments of Britain's Defense Minis try.

10 nap Of the canvas boat-cover-
ing and a half dozen CT cans
filled during the night to meet
this emergency. This rain water
was probably drinkable.
The point to which the craft
was ordered to proceed was
miles beyond that ordinarily APP
preached. If the river sank be-
low its present level-it may rise
or fall six feet in a night-there
was serious danger of a long
holdup. When he turned back,
according to the radioed infor-
nation, comrades had just
started carrying the sick man
down the mountain.
MaIingerer Recalled
Sergt. Palmer had bitter men,
cries of his last rescue mission
of this sort. The sick man turned
out to be a faker. There was
nothing wrong with him but an
infected finger which might
easily have been treated at the
observation station. This had
meant a four-day holdup. But,
the insisted, this pre-
sent case was desperate.
Fortunately rains in the noun
tains raised the level of the river
six feet the first night on the re-
turn journey. There was no more
need to worry much about being
snagged on sand bar. The des-
ignate6 point was reached on
the second day with no more
news of the sick soldier. Sergt.
Palmer took a chance, running
the landing craft further and
further up the swollen river. He
lodged floating logs all the way.
There was a possibility of meet
ing the dugout on its way down
half way and thus saving at least
day and possibly mans life.

He must be gotten out.
A United States Engineer land
ing craft was near the end of a
five-day trip on the Baudo with
requirements for some of the
stations. 1t had reached the
mouth of the river, only a day
away from the headquarters
town of Buenaventura. 1t was
ordered by radio to turn back to
pick up the sick soldier at a
designated Indian village. This
meant four or five days. Rations
were short, drinking water was
eXhausted-a possibly serious
situation in this jungle which
is half water and where all the
water is poison.
Faced Long Ordeal
The village designated for the
rescue was at the farthest point
up the Baudo which the land
ing craft could reach. Beyond it
would probably become snagged
on sand bar, have its geal
tangled with debris, or get into
too shallow water.

progress was impossible and It
was necessary to turn back to
the designated pickup point,
where there was a sheltered
cove. Actually it turned out
that when the turnaround was
made the Indian boat carrying
the sick man was only a few
miles further up the river. II
lit had been a little further
down a day would have been
saved.
Still there was no word. The
craft idled through the rainy
night and the next morning
Cholo Indians from the village
came on board. One of them
brought some pale lavender. g.
inch-long earthworms dug from
the river bank. Hosts of big
black flies and little yellow flies
came out of the jungle. Hordes
of brilliant orange butterflies
swarmed over the water.
DugOut Appears
There is some sort of grape
vine communication in the
jungle. The Indians relayed all
sorts Of reports, all different,
about the progress Of the sick
soldier. 1t looked like another
day of waiting and searching.
Just before dark the dugout
carrying the men appeared
around a river bend. He was
taken on board but dark was too
near to risk turning around be-
fore dawn, since the landing
craft had no lights. This time
the man was really sick, and
soaked to the skin. In two days
he was in a military hospital in
Buenaventura.

necessary risks run and hard
ships encountered by the soldiers
who man these mountain signal

was many miles beyond this. He
must be carried down the noun

rades if he was too sick to walk
Then he would be placed in one
of the narrow. easily capsizable
dugout canoes which are the only
means of transportation in this
jungle, and taken down the
river by Cholo Indians plying
spear shaped oars. 1t would be
at least a two-day ordeal for the
sick man before he reached the
landing craft, which in another
two days would get him back to
civilization. And much of this
dugout trip would be in binding
rain. 1t doesn't pay to get sick
in the jungle.

May Not Last Term
Sir Anthony and his Con-

iSh governments usually call for
new national elections well be-
fore the end of the full term
of office. But speculation
whether Sir Anthony himself
would last the course was still
widespread.
Many political observers in
sisted he would resign soon and
let the government form again

Idened with the blame for the
consequences of the Suez fiasco.
Others claiming to know Sir

Eden sPo|icy

LONDON, Dec. 7 P).-Brit-
aims Conservative Party took
a new hold on the reins of gov
eminent today after weathering
"a parliamentary squall over the
Suez invasion. But whether Sir
Anthony Eden would remain in
the drivers seat was still in
doubt.
In quick succession in the
House Of Commons last night the
government beat down a Socialist
motion censuring the Suez mill
.tary intervention. 327-260, then
won a vote of confidence in its
Middle East policy, 312-260.
Defeat on either motion would
have forced Sir Anthony and
his cabinet to resign and make
way for new national elections
which might have put the OPP
position Labor Party in power.
The first 67-vote majority
proved that the Conservatives,
despite internal dissension over
the abortive British French
strike into Egypt, still could close
their ranks against any Socialist
bid for national power. Actually
the Conservatives have only so
more members than all other
parties in the house.
Is Conservatives Abstain
The governments majority
WAS reduced on the second vote
by Is Conservatives who alb
stained. This was a direct slap
at Sir Anthony by Conservative
hackers Of a tougher line in the
Middle East, who think with
drawal now constitutes humili-
ating reverse leaving Britain and
France without any gains from
the invasion.
But the small number of alb
stentions in itself was a Con-
sentative victory, since more than
100 members of the party a week
ago had signed a petition de-
ploring the United Nations and
United States demands for with
drawal to which the government
bowed.
The votes came after a two
day foreign policy debate during
which the Conservative Party's
determination to ride out the
storm and hang on to govern
ment control was set forth by
