Wartime Salt
Settled To Satisfaction of Industry
Washington (U.R) The pret
zel bakers of America have been
having a salt problem but they
think they have it licked.
This news was a highlight of
the 15th annual convention, just
concluded here, of the National
Pretzel Bakers Institute.
Theme of the convention was
"The Miracle of the Pretzel In
dustry," the miracle being the
wy the industry has grown,
ccording to Alex V. Tisdale
fctftu Veronica Lake
' Rushed To Hospital
Detroit (U.R) Actress Ver
onica Lake, famous for her
peek-a-boo hair style, collapsed
early today and was taken to
receiving hospital, where phys
icians said she suffered a prob
able coronary occlusion.
Miss Lake, appearing here in
the play 'The Little Hut," col
lapsed in the lobby of her hotel.
Police rushed to the scene and
(ook her to the hospital, where
Dr. Norman Goldston said the
actress was suffering from an
illness "of a serious nature."
Miss Lake, film star of "Sulli
van's levels," "Slattery's Hur
ricane, and other movies, gave
her name as Mrs. J. A. Mc
Carthy. She and McCarthy, a
New York song publisher, were
married recently at Traverse
City, Mich., where she was ap
pearing in summer stock. She
gave her age as 33.
UO Inspection Team
Takes To Stairways
Portland (U.R) Thirteen
members of a state education
board inspection team found at
least one thing wrong yesterday
as they toured the new Univer
sity of Oregon medical school
teaching hospital.
They stepped into an elevator
and dropped 10 floors into the
elevator pit.
. Thanks to a plunger at the
bottom of the shaft, and brakes,
they emerged unruffled, but
were satisfied to finish their in
spection via the stairways.

Problem of Pretzel Bakers
of Pottstown, Pa., executive sec
retary of the institute and editor
of its monthly publication, The
Pretzel Baker, Americans now
eat 250,000,000 pounds of pret
zels a year. The industry, he
said, will do 580,000,000 worth
of business in 1955.
One of the more important
events of this year's convention,
according to Tisdale, was the re
port of the institute's salt com
mittee. Before World War II salt com
panies supplied pretzel bakers
with a special high quality coarse
grained salt that stood up with
out melting under oven tempera
tures of 550 to 660 degrees.
Salt Peopl Switch
But during the war, the salt
people switched to methods
which produced a salt the pret
zel bakers didn't like. For one
thing the grains were too hard
around the edges. They cut the
cellophane bags, letting in air
and moisture.'
Well, the salt committee re
ported, the salt makers are now
making a salt, similar to the
salt produced before the war,
which is completely satisfac
tory. There are some 90 pretzel
manufacturers in the- United
States. Twenty-eight, producing
about 85 per cent of all U. S.
pretzels, belong to the institute.
The institute was honored at
this year's convention by Swift
and Co. which presented its cen
tennial founders award of merit
to the pretzel industry.
The pretzel has come a long
way since its origin back in the
Dark Ages. The pretzel bender,
an artisan of antiquity, is on his
way out. His fate was sealed in
1933 when someone invented the
pretzel tying machine.
Pretzels are now made in a
variety of sizes and shapes, in
cluding the big boy or penny
pretzel. The loop pretzel is in
degenous to and flourishes only
in Cincinnati, O., and environs.
There also are poppyseed pret
zels, rye pretzels, cheese pret
zels, bald pretzels no salt, and
pretzels containing vitamins or
iron and other minerals. There
are recipes for pretzel crumb
crust pie, pretzel kabobs, and
pretzel dunks.
According to Tisdale, the pret
zel was invented in 610 A.D. by
a monk in the kitchen of a mon
astery in ' Southern France or
Northern Italy.
Having some bits of dough left
over from a baking of bread, he

rolled them out and looped them
in a design meant to represent
children's arms folded in prayer.
The monk called his invention
"pretiola," a latin word meaning
"little reward." The name got
corrupted in Austria and Ger
many to pretzel or bretzel.
The pretiola was given to chil
dren as a reward for saying their
prayers faithfully, and to this
day, Tisdale said, "children are
still great consumers of pret
zels." Sprayers Employ Balloons

To gain experience in esti

sent up large, red, helium-filled
balloons, each anchored at a
different height, and fired at
them with mistblowers, ma

The firing practice was held at
night, with spotlights following
the mist blasts. '

Quotes From the News
By UNITED PRESS "
Sen. Walter F. George (D-Ga.),' chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee, in a dispatch ' written exclusively
for the United Press, on the outlook for the Big Four talks at
Geneva:
"If a basis for agreement can be reached ... I am confident
that we shall be on the threshold of an era of genuine peace, an
era which will draw mankind closer together in common human
ity rather than condemn us all to the fraternity of the damned."
Thomas K. Finletter, former Secretary of the Air Force on
administration attacks on "individual . Freedom" through the
security program:
"The invasion of basic American rights, although somewhat
less extreme than it was a year ago. is still serious and American
opinion should be aware of this state of affairs and should do
something about it."
Frank Russo, 30-year-old New Jersey egg candler after being
told he had won $20,000 in the Irish Sweepstakes:
"I'm so upset, I feel funny all over."
A prosecution attorney at the Washington trial of Mrs. Kath
erine Ann Haynes, accused of shooting her husband's 19-year-old
mistress after he boasted of his infidelity:
"I don't think he has a moral fiber in his body, but no
matter how much this woman put up with, it can't justify a killing
in cold blood."
CIO President Walter P. Reuther when asked if rank and file
union members would approve the unified CIO-AFL labor move
ment: "If the rank and file had made the decision we would have
had labor unity a long time ago."
Francis Scott, 14, rescued from the waters of St. Andrews
Bay by an Air Force crash boat, after spending three days oa a
snake-infested island without food:
"While I was out there drifting all over the place, I sort of
prayed to the Lord just to put me on land."
U.S. Rep, John M. Vorys (R.-O.) comparing the present Wash
ington climate with that of the Truman administration, at a
Columbus, O., Republican dinner:;
"It is out of style to give them hell anymore."
Scope Still Used To Log
Golden Gate Ship Traffic
San Francisco (U.R) Ed Mc
Carthy, 63 and gray-h aired,
swung the big, brass-bound tele
scope into position and squinted
through the 50-power eyepiece.
"Powell River . . . three-thirty-one
p.m.," he said.
Across misty San Francisco
Bay, the Powell River, outward
bound for Vancouver ; to bring
back newsprint, chewed at the.
choppy waves, a "bone in its
teeth," speeding with the. ebb
tide through the Golden Gate.
The time noted by McCarthy
was "official" and would hold
water in any maritime court. De
partures and arrivals of vessels
through the Port of ' San Fran
cisco are marked by their cross
ing of the imaginary line from
the Marine Exchange waterfront
lookout on Meigg's Wharf to the
tip of Alcatraz Island.
106 Years
''We've been doing this for 106
years," McCarthy explained af
ter logging the cargo ship. "Since
the gold rush of '49 our watch
ers have seen the Sea Witch,
the Flying Cloud, the sails, give
way to steam and wood to steel
hulls. We've logged in and out
every ship in all that time.
"I started with the Marine Ex
change the year of the big fire
in 1906. I was a kid, you know,
on the wild waterfront, and this
was a good job. They can talk
about wireless and radio tele
phone all they want, but visual
reporting of ships still's got 'em
all beat.
Even Navy ships, which use
the Golden Gate bridge to mark
their arrival and departure time
from the port, are logged by the
Exchange. ' The simple business
of reporting this ocean traffic
still remains important. The
Marine Exchange, like Lloyds of
London and the New York Mari
time - Association, performs its
unique function for all shipping
interests.
Radio Not Enough
"The men who own the ships,
those who work them, those who
handle the cargoes and outfit
them all want to know exactly
where that ship is when it ap
proaches port," McCarthy ex
plained. "Radio won't do it be
cause that's on the ship. It takes
land-looking.
"True, wireless has made this
less important than in the old
days. Then, the Exchange, meet
ing the ship at sea, was the first
to bring back the manifest the
cargo it was bringing in, news
from the East, the passengers.
It's still important today to know
the ship's exact position on the
approach. Time and overtime is
at stake money. .
' "Our subscribers (between 500
to 600) now want to know where
that ship is every inch of the
way. They want to know wheth
er it's abeam of the lightship,
11 miles out, whether it's pass
ing Point Lobos and Point Be
nita, the headlands. Three miles
out it is met by a pilot boat and
takes on a pilot. We get that
news first."
At the waterfront lookout, the
Exchange watchers board a
launch and meet the vessel "in
stream."
Hardship Exceptions
, "We give the ship its docking
instructions, either written or
verbal," McCarthy said. "Ours is
the final word. Instructions may
have changed skice the pilot
went aboard. It is the Exchange
that notifies quarantine; agricul
tural, customs and immigration
officials of the arrival. All are
alerted to prevent delay."
, Some ships like those of the
American President Lines and
Matson lines already- have
cleared with authorities in Hono
lulu. They have their own docks
for berthing. Other ships must
proceed to Pier 7 for clearance.
If a vessel arrives between 6
p.m. and 6 a.m. without official
contact, it must anchor in mid
stream and wait.
"There are excentions of hard.
ship, though," McCarthy explain
ed. -L,uce that Chinese junk that
came m the other day. The in
spectors went out of their wav
to clear it for anchorage. It
wouia nave been a real hardship
for those fellows if thev'H had
to anchor in stream. They had
no power and the six of them
aboard would have had the dev
il's own time in raising, the
ancnor n they had an anchor."
