you that the natural sweetness has
been sealed in when the corn was
picked.
Fresh berries have a brief sea-
son, mainly July. This means you
should be watching for blueber-
ries, red raspberries, blackberries,
currants and gooseberries. OF all
of these blueberries are the only
ones sold in the grocery store in
any quantity. The others can be
found at road side stands, farmers
markets and the like.
The BURBERRY harvest this sea-
son is expected to be much small
er than that of last year. The New
Jersey crop, our main source, was
damaged by last winters cold
weather. AS a result of this you
will probably find fresh blueber-
ries more expensive than you ex-
pected. The harvesting will con-
tinue in New Jersey until about
August 90 However, the time of
largest supply is during the mid
die of July.
The meats to select this week
are broiler-fryers. turkey, steaks
(T-bone, porterhouse and sirloin)
few rib roasts of beef and be
sure to check at the fish counter
shrimp-an excellent buy these
days

Report

This is the season when the wa
termelon thumpers. the cantaloupe
sniffers and the sugar corn look
ers come into their own.
All of these midsummer foods
look wonderful when they are dis
played in the store but how can
you be sure the melon is ripe and
the corn sweet? Everyone has his
favorite way I'm sure and so do l.
This is an old Southern custom |
guess, for I've known of it ever
since can remember. If the
watermelon goes pink" when you
thump it, it's green. If it goes
punk" it's ripe.
The watermelon that makes the
pink" sound will be pink inside
when you cut it TO eat instead of
the deep red that it should be to
.aste best. Melons do not ripen
much after they are picked so it's
all up to you to select the one
that is Just right Here are a few
more scientific ways of selecting
the best watermelon from the pile.
First. look for a melon that is
regular in shape. Second, a fully
ripe melon especially. has dull
rather than bright shiny appear
ance and a. thin outer skin. Third.
ne underside of the melon where
il has rested on the ground as it
grew should be pale yellow not
white.
AS for corn. the best way to get
a good ear is TO examine the kerr
nels. The cob should be filled with
plump milky kernels that are firm
enough to offer slight resistance
0 pressure Be sure to ask the
clerks in charge, if the corn has
been hyro-cooled This will assure

fore him had done without re-

Kennedy not the SO he requested,

Was 1t Good? Was 1t Bad?-
How did the 87th Congress do in
its first session? Those who favor
heavy Federal spending-soaking
the taxpayers and building up the
national debt-say the 87th Con-
gress was good in its first session
in that it authorized numerous
domestic programs (costing huge
sums of money!, but bad in that
it refused to go hog Wild on
everything. (The spenders admit
sadly that they failed in loading
on the backs of the taxpayers two
pet schemes: Federal aid for local
schools, and their plan to put
medical care for the aged under
Social Security-but the spenders
hasten to add that they expect to
put over these programs in the
second session. Those opposed 20
unnecessary Federal spending take
the opposite view all along the
line. The latter find ray of hope
in the fact that Congress seems to
be working up to the dangers of
"backdoor spending" incidentally,
all the subjects mentioned in this
report have been discussed in our
Senate Cloakroom" one time or
another) Is the record of the 87th
at the halfway point good or bad?

Cool TO The New Frontier
The first Congress under the Ken
nedy presidency, a Congress CON
trolled by the party of the Presi-
dent, last week ended long and
eNhausting session in which it re-
sponded coolly to the call of the
New Frontier" While the Presi-
dent was rebuffed in most at
tempts to blaze new legislative
trails, Congress gave the Presi-
dent many of the big spending pro-
grams which he wanted. The total
amount of money appropriated for
the current fiscal year adds up
to S93 zoe, 100000 including the So
10G,00C,000 interest on the national
debt and other fixed charges
which do not appear in any APP
preparation bill but must be met.
Congress also appropriated $780,
100000 to make up deficiencies in
the fiscal year which ended June
80, 1861 = bringing the grand total
to S95,50C, 100000 appropriated by
this Congress in its first eight
months. The latest estimates are
that, of the total amount appropri-
ated for the current year, about
SS7 100 100000 will be spent during

because of the time required to
build certain Weapons) Tax col
lections for this year are estimated
at $82, 400 100000, which makes the
probable deficit next June $1,000,
00G COO At this rate, a siZeable in
crease in taxes can be expected.
More than half the Kennedy in
crease over the Eisenhower budg-
ct is the result of the tense world
situation, necessitating added de-
Tense spending. This session of
Congress yielded bipartisan action
to improve the countrys position
militarily in space exploration
and to some extent in foreign rela-
tons.
But the Minority and a big seq
ment of the Majority baked ut
certain unnecessary domestic
spending - notably in the fields
of Federal aid to local schools,
medical care under Social Securi-
ty, permanent increases in unem-
pIoyment compensation, and new
Department of Urban Affairs.
Also killed by the Congress or
held back for possible future ac-
ton were bills for a "tax reform,
broadening of Civil Rights, pro-
gram for teaching new skills, in
creased postal rates, and various
lesser measures.
Backdoor Spending Under At
tack-The 87th Congress didn't
buy" new legislative concepts. A
notable example was its refusal
to grant the President authority to
finance long-term economic loans
to under-deVeIoped countries by
borrowing from the Treasury di-
rectly instead of relying on an
nual Congressional appropriations
A campaign against "backdoor
spending" was the key to the Adj
