BACHELOR GOURMET, ; . “Some of these dishes enjoy the authenticity of ‘being: favorites through the years in hundreds of homes, and others are newly created by today’s young homemakers, bachelor gourmets and rising generation of good cooks.” Check that gourmet with the accent on bacheTor. It sure it strange how often the insignificant and unsuspected can influence one’s life. Right now, for example, I'm thinking of this “Food Is More Fun With . , , Wine” booklet the mailman brought me. A whole new horizon of epicurean luxuries has just opened up for me. I sit here asking myself why I put up with hamburger joints, sassy waiters and waitresses; why I eat food that ha« given up the ghost, as far as vitamins are concerned, on the steam table. and why I pay outrageous prices for food that a real gourmet wouldn't have in his stomach pump. I could and should become a bachelor gourmet. After all, I am a bachelor,
I Could Become a Gourmet
TRUE, A MAN must have other attributes and abilities to get himself into the connoisseur class, but a hasty chirck of myself proves beyond a doubt that I could become a gourmet. The booklet should be of great help. If all goes well, I'll write a thank-you note to National Distillers Products Corp. Thoughtful of them to think of me, + And #f I achieve sucvess with ham hocks and pepper pot soup, Ttalian Swiss lony, publishers of the bookiet, probably will wam ‘to hear from

A Jam in Alabam’
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 1—His head flecked with shell, rather like that of a querulous chick which hasn’t quite made it out of the egg, Henry Wallace began a strenuous trek through Alabama today, and Alabama was ready for him. In Birmingham, at last, Nature Boy must break his vows against speaking to a segregated audience, or he will not speak, At least he will not speak legally, and if he does not rate within the provisions of Section 858 of the Birmingham City Code, he will go to the clink, This was the Jast flat bulletin of Police Commissioner Bull Conner, a mighty little man who recently flung Glen Taylor into this selfsame Birmingham “jail. Mr. Conner, a former telegrapher and baseball announcer, with one sharp eye pinned on the governor's mansion, is pleased that Mr. Wallace should include Birmingham on his tomato-spat-tered itinerary. Mr. Conner got himself elected delegate to the Democratic convention largely on the strength of his run-in with vice presidential candidate Taylor—a shoo-in on the first primary of a tough, many-figured race. Mr. Conner planned to emerge from today’s crisis as a Horatio at the Bridge of Alabama's states’ rights, with a governorship—who knows? —as a possible reward.
Plan to Quell Any Riot
IT SEEMS to be generally believed down here that Mr. Wallace is not too unhappy at being pelted, and that he might even be carrying his own tame , egg-hurlers to insure plenty of Northern sympathy and votes. The South is turning cynically to the same game, and in Birmingham, at least, there is the beginning of an effort to stymie Henry by efficiency and frigid politeness—so long as Henry plays according to local rules. ; But elaborate plans were made here to quell any riot that might erupt—including, I was told,

The same amount of sauterne will perk up chicken broth. chicken consomme and chicken noodle. Since Mrs. Wilkinson doesn’t mention anything about sampling the wine before it's put into the soup, I assume one is not to sample. She doesn’t explain why cream soups take four to six tablespoons of wine while clear soups only require from one to four. Since trat is the case, a new gourmet probably had better start with the cream soups .
It's So Simple . . . Using Wine
THE INTERESTING THING about the booklet is the fact that you can use wine in just about everything that comes out of the kitchen, Practically from soup to nuts. And it's so simple. In some dishes you add the wine just before serving, others you soak over night, and still others such as pot roast you add wine during the last half of the cooking period. . Ah—there’s fish and oysters with half a cup of sherry, meat pie with burgundy, baked ham with sauterne, casserole of chicken sonoma (whatever
other delicacies and lots of wine. Wine is used very successfully in desserts, according to Mrs. Wilkinson. From beginning to the end, wine, wine and wine. A drop here, a tablespoon in the cooking pan, a snort when no one is looking, a half-cup in the beef, half-cup in the pie, shake u!l for five minutes and start in. Mrs. Wilkinson guarantees a surprise. I'm going to get a kick out of being a gourmet, They laughed when I poured a jug of sherry into wiy salad de luxe. They didn’t lauzh long.

the handy imminence of tear gas. Commissioner Conner said he was arresting any and all hurlers of ‘eggs, rocks, bricks, tomatoes, squash,. cantaloupes or other decadent members of the mineral and vegetable families, This protection, of course, is entirely dependent on Henry's willingness to talk to Negroes and whites divided in a roped-off enclosure which allows 4305 square feet of space to each.group. The little Bull—he even signs his name Bull— is a man of the well-remembered quote. When candidate Taylor proclaimed he would return: to Birmingham, and he ‘Would “make Conner .eat crow-—Jim Crow,” Bull snorted. “While I'm eating! crow,” he said, “Taylor will be eating cornbread and peas in the south side jail.”
Recall FDR's Sarcastic Crack
SOME indignation was aroused today after President Truman's denunciation of the egging of Mr. Wallace in North Carolina as “un-American.” Southerners recall, with relish, that when Mr. and Mrs. Wendell Willkie were pelted in Detroit in the 1940 campaign, President Roosevelt's only comment was a sarcastic: “It looks like the boys got a little rough.” As Birmingham has got more and more into the true spirit of the Wallace martyrdom caravan, the counter-measures have assumed a comparable political expediency. Commissioner Conner has decried the action of the Mayor of Gadsden, Ala., who wired Mr. Wallace that his presence was not desired in that city. The Bull considers this to be political cowardice— and goes so far as to welcome Henry to Birmingham, hoping the while that he'll step a mite outside the legal structure of the ctiy’s rigid segregation and public disturbance laws. Then Bull's duty is to enforce the law. . It appeared, early today, that they had Henry fairly well bottled up, to such point that he might have to-chuck away a few cherished principles or else cancel some of the half-dozen. speeches planned for Alabama.
Record Reading
me a EE Se |
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1—--This is a horrid confession to make, but I am the fellow who reads the Congressional Record. I've got the habit and I can't break it. It's akin to taking dope. What T'm going to do from now on I don't know. The final issue, consisting entirely of speeches that Congressmen didn’t make, is off the’ press and there'll be no more Congressional Records to soothe my literary cravings until next
year. This last issue, though, is a little stem-winder: 214 pages of wisdom, funny sayings and pent-up oratory at a charge by the government printing office of $73 a page. It cost us taxpayers $15,622 and to me it's worth every cent.
Gives Holy Land Travelogue
THE HON. Leo Isaacson of New York obliges with a travelogue on the Holy Land, including the recipe for the Israeli version of the hamburger. (You put the meat inside an envelope of dough, see, and then you cook it). The Hon. John A. Blatnik, a Demoerat of Minnesota, says Congress has made a record of miserable failures. The Hon. Charles A. Wolverton, New Jersey Republican, lists the glorious accomplishments of the same Congress. The Hon. Arthur G. Klein of New York says what this country needs is another OPA. The Hon. Porter Hardy Jr, of Virginia describes the summer resorts of his home state and invites his colleagues to loll on his golden beaches and climb his verdant mountains. You get the idea. This fascinating book contains essays on China, the state of the union, an item titled “My Pledges and ‘How I Fulfilled Them” by the Hon. Abraham J. Multer of New York, and an interesting piece about the new. postage stamp honoring the American chickén. (The one with feathers). : And that brings us to the Hon. Ralph W. Gwinn of New York, whose researches into price
