Of the flour Ito prevent its
sinking to the bottom). Set
10 rise IN a warm place.
While the dough is rising,
dip a fairly large cloth or a
cotton bag in boiling water.
Wiring and sprinkle inside with
flour which will stick to the
material. This makes the
dough stick to the cloth and
prevents the water from enter
ing too much. Put in the
dough after it has risen to
double its bulk. Close bag or
cloth and tie, leaving enough
space above the dough to al
low for further rising.
Put a saucer or plate in bot
tom Of a large enough kettle
to cover the dough-filled bag
Ftto prevent scorching of cloth.
Set the dougbag on this. add
boiling water to cover and boil
steadily and gently for ga
hours. Add water If necessary.
Open the bag or cloth. insert
o knife, which should come out
clean. That proves that the
pudding is done.
Let the pudding damp OF"
for a few minutes. Serve warm
with butter and dark brown
sugar or syrup.
Do not cut the pudding with
a knife, but use a tightly held
string for cutting in slices.
Trommelkoek: This same
dough with a few extra table
spoons milk added can be
boiled in a pudding form with
a lid, which first has been
creased and sprinkled with fine
breadcrumbs. Boiling time the

have here selling at about 10

could use other grades of beef,
with less bone, but my father
feels that sufficient fat on the
meat is necessary for the best
taste of the finished product.

After the corning process,
the meat can be kept In the

desired.
Now for the actual corning
solution. First Of all, use
enough water to completely
cover the meat, and into this
dissolve as much ordinary table
salt as the solution will hold.
Il heated part Of the water
and dissolved my salt in that,
because it dissolves better in
hot water and also hot water
will hold more in solution than
cold water will Then my
father says he adds a couple
extra handfuls of salt to take
care of the extra water which
may have to be added during
the corning process due to
evaporation. Then add and
stir in thoroughly about "A
teaspoon saltpeter (obtainable
at any drugstore.) My father

As Dad Does II
r. D. p, WASHINGTON


This is in answer to E. E. X,
OF Washington, who asks for
information on corning beef.
When we were visiting my
parents last summer, / got
the directions from my father
on how he prepares corned
beef. I tried 1t once, but 1t is
my opinion that it was more
work than 1t was worth for
our own mild desires for
corned beef. After corning my
piece, / cooked 1t without suf-
ficient soaking to remove the
salt taste, and mine was too
salty to be palatable that way.
] soaked it in several waters
the next day and made corned
beef hash Of 1t. 1t was good
that way, but too much work,
when the canned corned beef
makes such satisfactory hash.
My mother later informed
me that she soaks her pieces
Of corned beef in at least three
different changes Of cold
water. leaving it soaking a
couple OF hours each time. In
all fairness, however. I tasted
their home corned beef when
we were there and 1t was
delicious.
Now. here are my fathers
instructions: DO not use a
metal container for the soak
Ing. They use an old-fash-
Toned pickle or sauerkraut
crock, but a porcelain enamel
pan that has no Clipped
enamel and is big enough is
satisfactory. / used a plastic

DAVID LAWRENCE
The New Eisenhower Doctrine

upset the peace of the Middle
East was known to Prime Min
lister Eden many months ago.
The President did not want to
call Congress into special ses-
sion to get a resolution Of a
Standby" or contingent ma
ture pressed. because it was be-
lieved this would alarm the
country and give the move
more Of an emergency signif-
icance than it really had.
So it was more or less agreed
inside the administration that
the time to make such a pro-
posal was at the regular ses-
sion of Congress beginning in
January 1857. 1t was discussed
often in the National Security
Council here.
But, it has been asserted in
dispatches from London that
the new plan is the very thing
Britain was begging" America
to undertake several months
ago. 1t is not the same plan,
nor was the climate as favor
able then as it is today.
In. a sense the British
French intervention in the
Suez area has turned out to
be a factor favorable to the
exercise of American leader
ship in the Middle East. The
Arab states have more conf
dence now than ever before
in American disinterestedness.
The dispatches and comments
from Arab sources in the last
few days indicating hostility
to the first reports about the
Eisenhower doctrine" are
based on incomplete informa-
ton and a misunderstanding
Of the basic detectives.
When all the facts are
known-especially the inten-
ton of the United States to
develop a broad international
plan rather than a "unilat-
eral substitution of American
for British and French
domination Of the Middle East
the Arab world will recognize.
as will London and Paris. that
the Eisenhower doctrine" is
an effort to bind all the ma
tons on this side Of the iron
curtain more closely together
politically and militarily. with
economic aid as the corner
stone of a peaceful evolution.
There is nothing anti-British
or anti-French or anti-Israel
or anti-Arab in the plan. 1t
is wholly anti-Communist and
pro-Middle East. And, above
all, it calls for complete CO.
ordination with the machinery
OF the United Nations.

The FBI story written by
Pulitzer Prize winning reporter
Don Whitehead is not a who
dunit" although many of it's
chapters read that way. 1t is a
limited story of the activities
Of the most outstanding gov
eminent investigative agency
in the world which has sur
passed for many years now the
effectiveness of Britain's Scot
land Yard of the French Surete
Generate.
The field of activities of the
G-men is manifold, extending
from hunting down criminals
and kidnapers land more re-
Gently watching the course of
school indignation in the South
to tracking down subversives
and other would-be assassins of
our national security.
In the public mind. the FBI
efficiency is connected with the
strong personality of j. Edgar
Hoover. This is only partially
true. The "chief" is the inspira-
ton of the thousands of name
less agents whose dedication to
their jobs is such that many
OF them turn down much more
remunerative offers in private
industry to continue to serve
for what is a pittance compared
with the salaries they could
command outside the Govern
ment.
Hoover, himself, set an ex-
ample that it is better to serve
the people than to make
money. Some 10 years ago
when interested parties almost
succeeded in convincing Presi-
dent Truman to relieve him of
his responsible post, he was
offered positions with the sug-
gestion that he could write his
own check in six figures. The
thoroughness and impartiality
OF the activities of the men
under his orders got under the
skin of some highly placed
personages who felt endan-
gered by the information on
themselves which they knew

to be in the FBI files. A
cabal was organized. and it
looked for a short time as if
he would have to resign.
One of President Truman's
close advisers and personal
friends warned him that the
reaction of the American peo-
pie to even a camouhaged dis
missal of the FBI chief would
be such that his reelection
might be seriously endangered.
The arguments Of the Presi-
dents friend were so logical
and realistic that the plan
was a ba doned although
Hoover did not lift a finger
to save his official neck.
This story which had little
publicity in those days is not
recounted in Whitehead's
book. probably because it was
too personal and he is dealing
with what has now become a
national institution and not
with the persons who created
it.
Neither is there much in
formation in the book about
the foreign service" of the
FBI, that is, the agents who
are attached to a number of
embassies abroad to work
hand in hand with the local
central investigative organiza-
tions such as Scotland Yard,
the Surete Generate, and the
national police of Spain. ia
pan. Italy and Germany. These
men are not operating under
cover. They are officially des-
ignated as legal councillors Of
the American embassies. Their
main task is to cooperate with
their counterparts in these
lands in tracking down inter-
national forgers and subver-
sives. The men are Of the high
est caliber despite the fact
that some of our ambassadors
are sometimes prone to regard
them as cops" and do not
always extend them the cour-
tesies enjoyed by the other
members of the staff.
