But the 79-year-old con gressman, who is trying to annul his 90-day marriage to his 30-year-old secretary, gloomily held out little hope American women would listen. "Pretty hard to find a wom an to bake bread these days," he said. "They're too busy with parties and entertain ment to watch over the health of the family." Fate Bemoaned The big, white-haired ran cher sat behind his desk in his shirt sleeves and bemoan ed the fate of modern Ameri cans who come home to face store-bought bread. Pictures of American In dians, who baked their own bread, looked down from the office walls. A sign outside the office doors said: "A year from now what will we get in the stores is made from bleached flour and filled with chemicals to make it appear fresh." Burdick did not discuss the culinary abilities of his estranged bride. He contends his marriage was never con summated. The pretty blonde divorcee has left his house.
