often a good buy, but usually
requires long, slow cooking.
If You Buy Ungraded Beef
You can be reasonably sure
of high-quality beef when the
lean meat is light red, velyetly-
appearing, and literally veined
with fat, when bones are red,
and the fat is flaky and white.
Meat and Your Money
The amount of bone and fat
must be considered in figuring
the cost of meat - beef, pork,
lamb, or veal. For example,
beef short ribs may cost less
per pound than hamburger but
will yield only one-third to one
half as many servings.
In buying beef when you
plan to have broiled steaks or
rare roasts, select Prime,
Choice, or Good grades. But
when you want pot roasts, you
may do just as well to buy
Commercial grade.
For hamburger, meat loaf,
and stews, Commercial beef
may be just as satisfactory as
Choice or Good and is often
more economical.
EGGS
To be sure of high-quality
eggs, buy graded eggs sold in
cartons and kept in refriger.
ator. Look for the grade and
size on the label.
Size - Eggs are classified
by size according to weight per
dozen. The four sizes most
commonly found on the mar
ket are: Extra large-at least
n ounces per dozen; large-at
least "a ounces; medium-at
least II ounces; and small-at
least 18 ounces per dozen.

larger ones. For some uses,
you need to buy more small
eggs than you would normally

Another purple stamp which
may appear on retail cuts is the
round one indicating that the
meat has been inspected and
passed as wholesome food. All
graded meat is inspected, but
not all inspected meat is
graded.
You may find on your mar.

lamb, mutton, veal, and calf.
Pork is not usually graded. But
beef is the meat you will most
often find with a USDA grade

same holds true for your infor-

you offer and the way it is
served plays a big part in the

In this connection, "mostest"
has nothing to do with the
amount of money spent on par

somewhat by recording some

presenting the records to

President Eisenhower, with
help from Vice President Nixon
and Gov. Rockefeller, last week
opened the 1860 campaign for
the Republican Party at fund
raising dinner.
Senator Kennedy moved
nearer to Maryland's "a Demo-
cratic convention votes as Sena-
tor Humphrey announced his
decision to enter the West Vir-
ginia primary.
Democrats in the coming cleo
ton face one of the most difficult
tasks any party Of outs" has
faced in many year.
The problem: How to unseat the
"ins" at a time when there is
peace in the world, however
tenuous it may be. and prosperity
at home.
1t has been clear for some time
that the Republicans were plan
ming to make the most of the
peace and prosperity theme to
keep their grip on the White
House for another four years. Last
Wednesday this resolve was under
lined in heavy strokes by the
G. o. P.'s three foremost leaders.

President Nixon and Gov. Rookie

Then came the words that

subordinate commanders. Gen.
Power of the Strategic Air Com

years. because of the lack of a
complete early warning system, the
Russians would be capable of de-

His answer to this perilous
prospect: An airborne alert for a

The Political Angle

In Paris, Gen. de Gaulle looked
first to his political fences. He
quickly established that he had
the full support of all the major
political parties and groupings
with the exception of the extreme
right-wing Independents What
ever differences existed between
the President and his political ad-
versaries, they were united in the
face Of the threat to the republic.
Sure of his cabinet, the austere
man who led Free France to de-
liverance in World War II then
began, very cautiously, to gauge
the loyalty and dependability of
the army. Gen. Jacques Massu,
whose custer from his Algiers
command had precipitated the
crisis, was safely ensconced in a
Paris hotel. Gen. Maurice Challe
pledged loyalty and called on the
rebels to return to the nation"
1t was quickly apparent, however,
that any order to use force against
the insurgents would split the
army asunder.
No such order was issued. In
stead, by Gen. de Gaulle's orders,
Gen. Challe, other top-ranking
officers, and the civilian Delegate
General Paul Delouvrier, left Al
CRIES for a command post near
Bliva, about Is miles from the
capital. Regiments and battalions
from other areas of Algeria were
brought to the outskirts of Algiers.
1t appeared that the government
was ready to encircle and dry
out" the insurgents with isolation.

Jeeps. airplanes, tanks, ordnance,

explanations failed to silence
Democratic critics, of whom the
most vocal are Senators johnson

Mr.. Symington, Air Force Sec
retary in the Truman adminiStra-

he did not accuse Mr.. Eisenhower
