Young homemakerS
tell me they like small
batch recipes for pickles,
reliSheS and such.
They say it's easier
for them to work with
small quantities and, since
they're new at the game, they
feel there isn't as much risk
involved in event something
does go amiSS. Then, too,
there's the time element they
point out. With small chill
dren to care for, they haven't
the time to devote to an all
day canning project.
The small-batch recipes
still give them that feeling of
accomplishment and the
pleasure Of having a few jars
of homemade relishes on
hand for some special occa-
sionS.
Even experienced cooks
may welcome these particular
recipes, especially If their
families have dwindled to
two. They're convenient, too,
for people who live in apart
ments where storage is a
major problem.
A few simple hints will
start the new cook on the
right track. Make sure that
the vegetables are in perfect
condition fresh, firm and
free of blemishes. The whole
spices such as whole Gin
namon, cloves. allspice. ETC..
should be tied in a small
cheesecloth bag so they can
be removed easily. All jars
and tops should be sterilized
before the food is packed and
ealed. Make certain that
pickles which are to be kept
for any length Of time are in
sealed air-tight jars and
stored in a dark. dry place.

jurisdiction Of the issue in Tennessee.
Certainly this would not be less true
Of the State court in Maryland, and it
" uld be better, or so it seems to us, for
a State court rather than a Federal
court to resolve State political ques-
ton such as this.
Mr.. Seaman has appealed, convinc-
ingly we think, for Maryland court
action in these words: IF there is no
relief from this court, or from the
Supreme Court on appeal. then there
is no relief. To ask us to go back to
the General Assembly would be futile"
He meant that the General Assembly
has repeatedly refused to correct a
situation in which, for example, Gar
rett County's 10000 residents have four
representatives in the House Of Dele
gates, while Montgomery County, with
$4,000 people, has only seven. Such
gross unfairness should not be tolerated.

Blow to Proqress

Exercising the naked power which
they have always possessed, the Argen-
tine military leaders have deposed
President Arturo Frondizi and placed
MIN under arrest. But this, of course.
does nothing to solve Argentina's prob
lens. In fact, it may intensity them.
Mr.. Frondizi hung on to the bitter
end. Once the military had united
against him, however, he had no choice
except to bow to their demands. For
such comfort as it may hold, he can
await the verdict of the future secure
in the knowledge that he at least tried
to do the unpleasant things that we're
essential to his countrys economic
progress.
Two things led to his downfall.
One was his inSiStence on an austerity
program designed to put Argentina's
economic house in order and to prepare
the. country for participation in Mr..
KennedyS Alliance for Progress. The
other was the political ,resurgence of
the PeroniStaS, resurgence nurtured
in large measure by hostility toward the
Frondizi economic reforms. These prob
lens remain. And they will plague a
successor government, just as they
plagued the Frondizi regime.
Presumably, the new regime in
Buenos Aires will have the form, though
not the substance, of constitutional
government. But there is no reason to
think it will be able to govern more
successfully than did Mr. Frondizi. And
. it may very well do great deal worse
This is a prospect which must be
causing deep concern among those in
Washington who had hoped that Argen-
tina would serve as a strong bulWark
of the Alliance for Progress.

ObHqes Rambler

1 am nappy to supply the
Rambler's request for refuta-
ton of the late William b.
litho's statement that Colum-
bus was not a sailor. Twelve
Against The Gods. I am glad
Mr.. Kennedy did not swal-
low this attempt to SANDER
a hero of Americas past.
REPUTATION lies in the &C
count of Christopher Colum-
bus life and exploits as pre-
sented by Rear Admiral Sam
uel Eliot Morrison, Americas
foremost naval historian and
a man of highest integrity
and intelligence. Not only
did Admiral Morrison search
out each and every document
and ships log to uphold the
factuality of his account of
Columbus life and adven-
lures, but he also proved the
validity of these documents
themselves beyond a reason
able doubt by consulting ev-
cry possible expert and source
of information and even by
retracing the actual voyage
with the Harvard Columbus
Expedition to verify the &C
curacy of the letters and logs
written by the Great Discov-
erer himself.
Admiral Morrison in his two
volume set, Admiral of the
Ocean Sea-" which won a Pu-
liter prize, and in the con-
densed version, christopher
Columbus, Mariner" portrays
a very human person who
had faults as any normal
human being, but who made
up for them amply by the
attributes and determination
which made him a great hero.
One of the most disturbing
statements of Bolitho, and
also the most fictitious, was
the one concerning Colum-
bus supposed lack of sea-
manShip and to a greater de-
gree, navigational skill. Ad-
miral Morrison notes that
some of the navigational
feats which Columbus per-
formed were with very crude
instruments. We would have
a most difficult time dupli-
eating these feats even with
our modern precision navi-
gational equipment. AS the
Admiral puts it, But there
was no flaw, no dark side to
the most outstanding and eS-
Sential of all his qualities
his SeamanShip. AS a master
mariner and navigator. Co.
lumbuS was supreme in his
generation"

Aid for Investors

AS one of the savings and
loan victims, I assure you my
investment did not come
from any greedy" thoughts,
as suggested by a letter
writer. When I called my as
ISOLATION to ask about secur-
ity of money invested under
their SO rate, I was told that
my money was as safe with
them as it would be invested
in a Federally insured insti-
tuition and. more so, because
they said, Our money is
invested in first mort
cages, conventional type of
investments, etc., whereby
liquidation is made quickly
and easily" They said I could
withdraw my money any
time. I believed them and
thought I might as well get
SO interest on my money
since I had sacrificed in
many ways to save from a
modest Government salary
over a period Of years.
The proposal for a State
created savings and loan
liquidation corporation does
make sense in that it could
help needy people who have
been made destitute through
the fraudulent type Of bust
ness that Maryland allowed
to exist up until late last
year.
The State is helping dis
tressed areas. why not the
saving and loan unfortu-
mates?

MARYLAND May Lead

The first significant test of what
courts can or will do to help equalize
representation in State legislatures may
come in Maryland, not in Tennessee.
For Maryland's highest tribunal, the
Court of Appeals, is expected to rule
within few weeks in a suit which
presents representation question very
similar to that posed in Tennessee.
This suit was filed by Attorney Al
fred L. Seaman of Bethesda on behalf
OF the Maryland Committee for Fair
Representation. And Mr.. Seaman now
has asked the Court of Appeals, which
has ruling under consideration, to take
into account the Supreme Courts action
in the Tennessee case.
The two situations, of course, are
not Identical. Tennessee has a conStitu-
ton which calls for reapportionment
every 10 years-a command which has
been ignored since 1901. Maryland has
no comparable constitutional require
ment. There has been no basic change
since 1867 in the Maryland system of
pportionment, however, and the Mary
land urban voter has even less rep
reSentation in his State legislature than
has his opposite number in Tennessee.
Thus, there would not appear to be any
significant difference; the two situa-
tons are essentially the same as far as
the injustice is concerned.
When the Court of Appeals was
hearing arguments, the Maryland At
torney General advanced the same OBJ
lection raised in the Tennessee case
that apportionment is political ques-
ton and not proper matter for court

In Simple Equity

Twice now, by pure happenStance,
proposals by Senator Holland of Florida
to ban the poll tax by constitutional
amendment have become blessings in
disguise for the disfranchised citizens
OF the District of Columbia.
For poll-tax amendment was the
vehicle which, in August, 1859, launched
the successful enactment and ratifica-
ton OF the constitutional amendment
under which Washingtonians now may
vote for President and Vice President.
This week, under strikingly similar
circumstances, Senator Bush of Con-
necticut attempted to add to the latest
pou-tax amendment a provision to
grant direct representation for Wash
ingtonians in the House and Senate.
While the effort failed, it was by
no means in vain. For 1t directed at
tent1on once more to a glazing injuS-
tice and, more Importantly, elected from
Senator Kefauver Of Tennessee a prom
1se that his Senate Judiciary Subcom-
m1ttee would schedule hearings on the
Bush proposal at the earliest practicable
time.
It is hard to imagine subject which
has had more hearings, or more dis
cussion. Year after year, decade after
decade for that matter, the legal and
moral justification for District rep
resentation has been painstakingly doc
umented and substantiated. Actually,
as Senator Heating of New York re-
called, the Senate, largely through his
efforts, approved a provision in 1860
which would have granted the District
the same representation in the House
that 1t would enjoy If it were State.
This provision unfortunately was later
killed. Achieving the right to vote In
presidential elections subsequently re-
moved much of the blight Of disfran-
ch1sement which has hung over the
Nations Capital since 1900. But repre-
sentation in the House and Senate is the
part of the package still to be won.
Senator Holland, in urging hearings
and further study of the Bush amend
ment, questioned representation for the
District on grounds that it would be "a
radical departure a far-reaching
provision, so completely different from
anything now existent in this country"
These comments go directly to the
heart Of the matter. For the District is
different-a unique Federal enclave
whose residents simply were not fully
provided for when the Founding Fathers
established mechanism for congress
sional representation through the States.
But the point we hope the Senators will
remember in the debates which surely
will follow on this subject is that Dis
trict residents are different from other
Americans mainly in that they-alone
among citizens-lack representation in
Congress.
In the words of Senator Bush, the
continued denial of representation to
Washingtonians in this day and age
is perfectly ridiculous" 1t is right due
them "in simple equity"

Critic to Critic

I am a music lover who
cannot follow a score and
therefore would not be able to
tell If an artist has taken Ii
berty with an authors writ
ten notes.
I was quite surprised to
read that Irving Lowens. in a
single article, could on the
one hand recognize that Mr..
Rubinstein is a septuagenar-
ian who communicated with
an overflow audience to the
extent of playing two addi-
tional compositions after
some two hours of actively
playing the piano due to q
genuine ovation" (perhaps
only in Washington ovations
are not genuine), and on the
other hand states that there
was a "lack Of communica-
ton"
I did not attend the con-
cert but I got the impression
that it was generally well re-
ceived by the audience. Per-
haps when Mr.. Lowens gets
to be a septuagenarian he
will realize that after two
hours of piano playing,
regardless of how young one
looks. it is possible to get
tired.
When one reaches an age
long past that when people
normally retire, and still is
willing to punish himself in a
gruelling physical effort, such
as the concert described, and
has made people happy to
the extent of rendering a
genuine ovation" there has
been an effort far beyond
that generally found in ordi-
nary people.

Berlin and Peace


turned from Geneva with little or moth
ing to show in the form of measurable
progress toward a Soviet-American
meeting Of minds on disarmament, a
nuclear-teSt ban or the Kremlin-
featured Berlin crisis. But this comes as
no surprise; nor does 1t mean that his
lengthy talks with Foreign Minister
Gromyko have been waste Of time,
On the contrary, there is reason to
believe that the talks-conducted in
generally cordial atmosphere - have
served to lay the groundwork for later
negotiations that may prove to be fruit
tul. In any event, at least as far as
Germany and Berlin are concerned, Mr..
Rusk and Mr.. Gromyko have found it
possible to issue joint statement de-
clar1ng that their exchange of views has
been both useful and frank, and some
progress has been made in clarifying
points of agreement and points of diff
ference" Further, and quite signifi-
cantly, they have indicated that they
Will resume contact in an appropriate
way after reporting to their respective
with their allies"
II these words mean anything, they
plainly suggest that the channels of
quiet diplomacy are going to be kept
open in the weeks and months ahead
In an effort to ease international ten
sions Of type that could suddenly ex-
plode into about nuclear war. Anyhow.
Mr.. Rusk, together with our permanent
delegates to the 17-nation disarmament
conference (Which Is likely to go on for
long time to come at Geneva) has
made clear that our country will con-
tinue to insist upon effective policing
in connection with possible agreement
on banning nuclear tests or ending the
SplraIlng arms race. He has made clear,
too, that the United States, in concert
With France and Britain, is unreservedly
determined to maintain its vital inter-
ests IN Berlin and Germany as whole
regardless Of whether or not the Krem-
lin Is adventuresome enough, or reck-
less enough, to challenge our American
resolutenesS to the point of a showdown
that could lead to catastrophe con-
sequences.
1t is this showdown that the Rusk-
Gromyko conversations seem to have
aVerted or postponed, and to that extent
they have been productive. The Soviet
Foreign Minister presumably has been
impressed by the Secretarys presenta-
ton Of American policy on Berlin-a
policy Of patience and flexibility in
many respects, but still one of unyield-
ing firmness as regards the free city'S
viability and the rights of the Big Three
western Allies to maintain troops there
and to have unhampered access to it.
Mr.. RuSk has been at pains to emphasize
these points, and the Kremlin, or so let
us hope, has understood him and will
bride itself accordingly.
Thus there is ground for cautious on
tlmism. Certainly, If Nikita Khrushchev
and his colleagues attach as much
credence and Importance as they should
to Mr.. RuskS words, Soviet policy ought
to become more moderate and circum-
Spect than it has been. Given such a
change, the world at large could be
reasonably hopeful about the prospects
for peace.
