The Tables Turn: Dull Pots and Pans Are Now a Sign of Good Housekeeper

THE WARTIME SCARCITY of

steel wool and other metal scouring

materials may be a blessing in disguise to the thrifty housewife, home economists of the U. S. department of agriculture report.

So far as pots and pans are c

oncerned, less scouring can mean a

saving of heat and metal, to say nothing of time and elbow grease.

Shining pots and pans look nice, |

but actually they are less efficient cooking utensils than those that are dull and tarnished on the outside or dark on the bottom. _ A dull surface absorbs radiant heat while a bright surface reflects it. So frying pans and kettles are most economical of heat from the top of the stove if they are dark on

the bottom, and baking pans make | better use of oven heat if the en-|

tire outside surface is dull. Baking tests show, for example, that cookies baked on new shining tin need an oven 25 degrees hotter than those baked on old dark tins. Tins should never be polished because the thin layer of tin on the outside soon rubs off, leaving the steel underneath exposed to rust.

On Pet Food

THE WARTIME LIVES of Fido and Tabby aren't going to be any easier. The war food administra|tion has renewed its limitations on pet food manufacture in order to divert as much animal and vegetable protein as possible into vitally needed live stock and poultry feeds. They promise, however, that the limitations still provide a minimum maintenance diet for household animals. Animal protein content is limited to 8 per cent by dry weight, and total protein content to 24 per cent by dry weight.

Clothes Treated To Repel Water

Many laundries and dry cleaners are now equipped to treat clothing with a water-repellent finish. Coats, suits, sports clothes, draperies and slip covers can be protected with water-repellent finish which sheds rain and resists non-oily spots and stains. The finish does not coat the surface of the fabric, but covers the fibers with an invisible film, permitting normal healthful circulation of air.

MINERS OFFER WAGE FORMULA

Woo WLB With New Reason for Portal-to-Portal Validity.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4 (U. P.)— The United Mine Workers hoped today that a new argument submitted in behalf of their portal-to-portal pay demand will help win war labor board approval of their Illinois

wage agreement. The U.M. W. denied at a WLB

resting their claim entirely on the wage-hour law. torney, Crampton Harris, virtually agreed with expressed views of the board that the miners could claim no travel pay under that law until their work week exceeded 40 hours compared with their present work week of 35 hours. Harris argued that a federal court decision involving the wage-hour law had held that travel time was working time. Without relating the miners’ claim to the wage-hour law, Harris contended that they had received no compensation under their previous wage contracts for travel.

Discharges Liability

Although Harris followed that line of reasoning, the Illinois operators submitted their proposed settlement of $1.25 daily as a settlement of travel pay claims under the wage-hour law. The settlement would discharge alleged liability for travel pay since October, 1938, when the wage-hour law became effective. Harris said the U. M. W. had not committed itself to the operators’ formula but had accepted it as a reasonable settlement. He said they would arrive at the amount by “an entirely different way” but the board failed to ask him for an explanation. Settlement a Compromise Both Harris and the operators emphasized that the settlement was a compromise which both parties were willing to accept. Unlike Southern Appalachian operators who have sought a court test of the issue, the Illinois operators said they did not want the issue determined in court because they would be left with an unknown cost factor, which could not be determined for perhaps four years. Wayne L. Morse, WLB public member, in effect reprimanded U. M. W. President John L. Lewis and the union for its consistent refusal to participate previously in the case before the board. He said the travel pay question never had been submitted as “a working condition problem.” “We can’t try the case for the parties,” he said. “They must make their own record.”

ARGENTINE LIFTS BAN ON SHIPPING

BUENOS AIRES, Aug. 4 (U. P) —Argentine ships henceforth will dock at New York in virtual defiance of the German declaration that the American east coast is a “war zone.” The ban on New York as a port of call was lifted by the military government of President Gen. Pedro P. Ramirez last night. New York was ruled out of bounds by the desposed Castillo government on July 8, 1942, after German submarines torpedoed two Argentine ships “by mistake.”

EDEN REAFFIRMS ‘SURRENDER’ VOW

LONDON, Aug. 4 (U. P.).—Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden reiterated in commons today that the allies were demanding Italy's unconditional surrender. Rhys John Davis asked Eden to name the honorable peace conditions which Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower said in a broadcast had been offered the Italian people. “As stated July 30,” Eden replied, “no peace terms have been offered the Italians. We continue to demand unconditional surrender.”

GEORGIA TO PERMIT 18-YEAR-OLD VOTING

ATLANTA, Ga. Aug. 4 (U. P.).— Georgia today apparently became the first state in the nation to grant voting privileges to 18-year-olds. Returns from yesterday's ballot= ing gave almost certain approval of a measure to lower the voting age and 27 other constitutional amendments sponsored by Gov. Ellis Arnall to “complete my campaign

promises to the people of Georgia.”

SWISS REAFFIRM NEUTRAL POSITION

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4 (U. P.) — Swiss circles today were puzzled by reports from London that the united nations have given Switzerland a friendiy warning not to let any country use Swiss railways or roads for military purposes. The Swiss state that it is wellknown in diplomatic quarters that Switzerland, since 1815, has never permitted any troops to pass through the country and never will without a fight. No soldiers, arms, or munitions of any foreign country have been in Switzerland during world war I or the present war, they said. If Germany ever attempts to use Swiss railways the Swiss army will meet the Nazis with arms, according to Swiss sources. They stated that it would require at least 500,000 well-trained troops to meet the Swiss on anything like an equal footing.

{ALLIES ABLE TO HIT

NAZIS, GENERAL SAYS

CAIRO, Aug. 4 (U. P.) ~The allies now are powerful enough to attack Germany, Gen. Sir Maitland Wilson, British commander of the Middle East, said today, and the troops in his area are ‘ready for any eventuality.” Commenting on rumors of the establishment of a buffer state under the Vatican across Italy, Wilson said he opposed such a development. “That would not be fair to us,” he told newspapermen. “I would hate to see it now that we are powerful enough to hit Germany.”

92 TAX CONVICTIONS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4 (U. P).— Ninety-five persons were brought to trial and 92 convicted for evasion of the federal tax lawsy during the 1943 fiscal year, Elmer L. Irey, chief co-ordinator of the treasury enforcement agencles, reported today.

VIEW SALES TAX AS ISSUE AGAIN

Forced Savings Also May Be Studied for New

Revenue Bill.

WASHINGTON, "Aug. 4 (U. P).— Congressional advocates of a sales tax predicted that it or some form of forced saving, or both, would be incorporated in the new tax bill. Rep. Daniel A. Reed (R. N. Y)) endorsed a no-exemption sales tax, and told reporters he would fight

legislation with exemptions, even of food and medicine. Rep. Wesley E. Disney (D. Okla.) said he believed the new bill would necessarily incorporate a sales tax or enforced savings—“or quite pos-

sibly both.” Seeks 12 Billion

Both representatives are members of the house ways and means committee, which begins work Sept. 8 on a tax bill to provide at least part of the $12,000,000,000 new taxes President Roosevelt is seeking. Renewed pressure for a sales tax seemed to forecast a battle with administration forces which have consistently opposed it. Disney accused the administration of playing politics with the sales tax issue. He ‘said the administration “again as in the case of the anti-strike bill . . . is endeavoring to stay on the popular side and oppose a sales tax yet at the same time placing congress in such a position that it will have no aly” ative but to pass a sales tax.” visney and Reed agreed that the sales tax would raise about $5,000,000,000 additional revenue.

WINE LOVING SICILY NOW HAS SHORTAGE

WITH A SPITFIRE SQUADRON ON THE 8TH ARMY FRONT, Aug. 4 (U. P.)—A wine shortage is developing in Sicily where the overflowing cask is legendary. Both British and American troops would prefer beer to quench their never-ending thirst in this parching climate, but they've had only wine, and the large army and air forces have about used up the available supply.
