f FLEA STIRS COHGRESS Qen JoHina Tte HetterUmls urges a joint session of Congress at Washington, D. C, to press the "cold war for peace" to build the strength and unity of the free world. The 42-year-old Queen appealed for continued American aid to dispel the "universal fear of war and annihilation." Behind on the rostrum are Vice President Alben Barkley (left) and Speaker of the House Sam Raybarn. United Nations Delegates Enjoy U.S. Food, Says Chef New York OJ.R) The 60 countries in the United Nations often disagree with American politics but they like American food. "Especially hamburger," said Jean Laparcerie, head chef for the newly opened kitchen and dining facilities in the UN's sky scraper secretariat. "Just about everybody likes hamburger," said the French born chef. "It's the item most often asked for in the cafeteria." Even the delegates, .who can dine in a separate, lounge-like room, if they like, order the American dishes on the menu. "Mr. Gromyko . . . he's a lamb chop man" said Laparcerie of the Russian diplomat. "But, I've often served him a coiS 'buffet and he didn't say so much as boo." Like Curried Lamb Americanized curry of lamb Is the item most often ordered by delegates. It's served minus all the side dishes you'd get if it were served Indian fashion. The UN agreement on food leads Chef Laparcerie to believe the harmony can be extended to the diplomatic leveL "If they don't fight over what they eat, maybe they can make peace elsewhere," the chef said with a grin. , The kitchen is geared to turn out delicacies such as squab under glass, if there's a request for such. "We'll charge extra for that kind of service," said the prac tical Laparcerie. Laparcerie has been cooking for UN diplomats and lesser "ranking "employees for five years, or ever since the meetings at Lake Success began. Kitchen Is Vast From his new headquarters he will direct the serving of 2,600 lunches per day, except when the Security Council is in ses sion. "Then it'll step up to about I.eoo," he said. A vast kitchen, covering al most 9,000 square feet, is the heart of the eating department It's an outsize version of what very woman dreams about for her own home. Virtually . every operation is done automatically. There are stainless steel cabinets and count er areas, mixing vats which can bold more than 100 gallons of cake or bread dough, and five cold-storage closets, ' each as large as a small auto-trailer. The UN administration officer said that annually it would take close to 5,000,000 cubic feet of natural gas to run the 15 gas ranges, broilers, roasting ovens, and numerous grills and toasters. About 6,000,000 hour-pounds of steam will heat steam tables, operate steamers and ' run the dish-washing machines. More than 100,000 kilowatt hours will be ticked off in running the elec trical equipment. Average Income From Stage Work Proved Very Low New York U.R) The drab picture of theater employment for actors has been painted again in the annual report compiled for Actors' Equity association by Alan Hewitt. The average income of actors from work on the stage the re port doesn't cover outside work in radio, television, etc. for the 12 months ended June 1, 1951 was $790. That was $50 less than in the 1949-50 season, $30 more than in the 1948-49 sea son. Oddly enough, the number of persons employed was greater 5,111- members of Equity as against 4,569 in 1949-50. The average employment was slightly over 10 weeks during the' 12 months. In the average week 82.3 per cent of the union's total membership were unem ployed. Fewer than one in eight mem bers earned $5,000 or more, al though their number was slight ly higher than in the two pre vious seasons. Less than one in 20 made at least $10,000, 24 made more than $50,000, six made more than $100,000 and two topped the $150,000 mark.
