Canned Meats
Good For
Summer Meals
Treat your family to
canned meats this summer.
Handy for camp trips and
other outings, canned meats
are ready to serve anywhere
in the great outdoors.
A glimpse at today's vari
ety of canned meats, tips on
selection, care and storage
are provided by Oregon State
college county extension
agents.
Luncheon meat, chili con
came, canned hams, and meat
stew account for almost half
of all canned meat items
packed under federal inspec
tion last year. Spaghetti meat
products, beef hash and ta-
males were other . popular
items. Babies like meat, too,
continue home economists,
and their mothers like the
convenience of buying ready-
to-feed strained and chopped
meats.
Price tag on canned meat
depends on ingredients used.
Some spaghetti and meat com
binations, for instance, vary
15 to 20 cents in price. By
reading labels, homemakers
can tell what makes up the
total product, as greatest
amounts of single ingredients
are listed first on containers.
Almost all canned meats
have been completely steril
ized after sealing so they can
be stored unopened at room
temperature. However," some
hams are not completely ster
ile and should be refrigerated.
Shoppers are advised to read
labels carefully.
Rust or dents on cans do
not harm the contents unless
seams have leaked. Canned
meats do not require cooking.
Some taste better, however,
if - served hot. Cover unused
portions of meat and store in
refrigerator and use within
a few days.
Don't wash eggs before stor
ing them. Water destroys the
protective film which keeps
out air and odors.
IP THERE'S A BABY
IN YOUR HOUSE
it's especially impor
tant to wash all of his
things in White King
.rJt. V. SWKSIP
Soap. White King keeps every
thing that touches his tender skill
soft, safe, free from the irritants
that lead to diaper rash, rliafing
and other discomforts.
All-American Girl Is a Hit ,
At Brussels Worlds Fair
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
Brussels (CPD The All
American girl is a hit with
all who visit the U. S. Pavil
ion at the Brussels World's
Fair. And this includes the
men who first ask the host
esses for information but
stick around to ask for dates.
The information is readily
available; the dates are not.
"Oh, I have plenty of social
life here," said Kaye Karlan,
a blue-eyed brunette of 23,
from Denver, Colo.
"But most of us date boys
we've met through friends,
the same as back home. We
get plenty of other offers, es
pecially from GIs stationed
over here," said Kaye, a
graduate of Northwestern un
iversity. "We expect that." laughed
Freida Weisblatt, 21, of Fort
Worth, Texas, a junior at the
University of Texas. "That's
part of the American rou
tine." Too Young
"Only thing is, the GIs are
usually younger than we are"
said Renee Straus, 22, of
Camden, N. J.
The be-friendly-but - not -too-friendly
policy is one host
esses have adopted for their
summer long job of putting
America's best foot forward
at the fair, where 54 coun
tries including Russia are ex
hibiting. All will stay until
the fair closes Oct. 19.
I stood for an hour by the
U. S. information center, just
inside the American Pavilion
watching thase three cheer
fully answer questions from
a steady stream of visitors.
My own reaction was one of
pride in these girls, all attrac
tive, all looking well-scrubbed
and neat in their pale
gray two-piece suit uniforms.
They are doing a good job of
diplomacy at the person-to-person
level. And the Euro
pean reaction to them is
friendliness in return.
"So many ci! them come
back to say we are nice," Miss
Karlan said.
Oregon Ministers
Ask Agreement To
End Nuclear Tests
Portland Basing their plea
on moral grounds, 147 Oregon
ministers have called upon the
United States to secure an in
ternational agreement to sus
pend all nuclear weapons
tests.
The announcement was
made today, the 13th anniver
sary of the United States
atomic bombing of Hiroshima,
by the American Friends
Service Committee in Port
land. The ministers represent 71
Oregon communities and 14
Christian denominations.
Asked To Bend Efforts
The appeal was addressed to
President Eisenhower, Secre
tary of State Dulles and John
A. McCone, chairman of the
Atomic Energy Commission.
It asked that each work to
bring an end to U. S. tests in
the Pacific, and "to bend all
possible efforts to secure
agreeemnt with the other nu
clear powers which will sus
pend all nuclear weapons
tests."
The 'ministers questioned
the morality of continued test
ing in light of "mounting evi
dence of radioactive fallout
and by the widely held opin
ion of scientists that harmful
effects will be visited upon
unborn generations."
Deplores Perfection
"We deplore the perfecting
of weapons capable of total
and instant annihilation of
millions of people in one
blow," the statement contin
ued. 1
"We are saddened that the
world believes it can sow the
seeds of peace by using imple
ments of destruction."
The statement was a project
initiated . by the American
Friends Service Committee in
cooperation with the Rev.
George G. Roseberry, First
Methodist Church of Medford;
the Rev. J. J. Clow. Mt: Olivet
Baptist Church of Portland;
the Rev. John L.' Anderson,
chaplain at Lewis and Clark
College, Portland; the Rev. Al
bert F. King, Bethel Congre
gational Church of Beaverton,
and the Rev. Harold Glen
Brown, First Christian Church
of Portland. ,
The 71 communities reDre-
sented by signatories' include
Ashland, Grants Pass, Cave
Junction, Lakeview, Klamath
Falls, Prospect and Medford.
TEMPTATION TOO GREAT
San Jose, Calif (UPD John
Henry McNeill did a good job
as trusty in the county jail
coffee shop, so when he was
transferred to the county farm
deputies took up a collection
to .show their appreciation.
McNeil, with money to spend,
promptly jumped the farm
fence and fled.
All told, we have 190 host
esses working in various parts
of the American Pavilion plus
other young men and women
serving as guides and demon
strators. The hostesses were selected
for their personality, appear
ance and intelligence. And all
speak at least two languages
besides English.
I asked the three girls
what questions were most fre
quent. All three agreed they were:
"Where can we get a hot
dog?" Any snack bar.
"Where is Circirama?" an
impressive, and free, tour of
the United States with a mo-vies-in-the
round technique:
and "Where are the rest
rooms?"
Careless Handling
Of Picnic Food Can
Cause Poisoning
By JEANNE LESEM
United Press Correspondent
New York (UPD The pic
nic season that is underway
is a mixed blessing.
It cuts down on dish-washing
and other housekeeping
chores, but it increases the
possibility of food poisoning
among careless picnickers.
The U. S. Public Health
Service reports an average of
11,000 food poisoning cases
annually. But authorities re
gard this figure as a gross un
derstatement because many
health boards fail to report
case totals to the federal
agency. There also are no sta
tistics showing how many
cases are due to careless hand
ling of picnic food.
Whatever the figure, it
could be cut greatly with
cleanliness and refrigeration,
says the New York Depart
ment of Health.
Cool Quickly
Cleanliness should apply to
food handlers, all utensils and
serving dishes and to the food.
Even food prepared under
completely sanitary condi
tions can cause poisoning if
it's left unrefrigerated too
long.
Cooked food should be
cooled rapidly, department
experts said, even if it does
steam up the refrigerator.
Don't wait for cooked food to
reach room temperature, es
pecially on a hot day. Put it
in the refrigerator soon after
it comes off the stove.
Don't count on detecting
bad food from its odor or
flavor, the health department
warned. Food poisoning is not
caused by spotted or rotted
food or by "ptomaines."
These dangers can be antici
pated and avoided through
scent or taste.
Germs and chemicals that
cause food poisoning don't
chanee the appearance, taste
and aroma of either highly-
perishable cream foods and
custards or less perishable
solids, such as hams.
Food Selection
Chances of avoiding food
poisoning re better if you
select foods that keep well.
These generally are foods that
have been cooked before serv
ing and kept adequately re
frigerated until mealtime, or
dry or acid foods that resist
bacterial growth.
This' includes bread, cook
ies, crackers and dry cakes,
such as pound or sponge cake.
It also includes all raw fruits
and vegetables, fruit juices,
dry and cooked cereals,
cooked vegetables, stewed
fruits, cheeses, canned fish,
canned baked beans, fried or
boiled eggs, jellies apd jams.
This .rules out traditional
picnic items, such as ham and
chicken salads, potato or mac
aroni salad, dairy foods and
mayonnaise. They are more
readily contaminated, the
health department said. If
you do use them, don't mix
in the mayonnaise or salad
dressing until , serving time,
because the solid foods will
reduce the dressing's acidity
which protects it from . contamination.

Women Make
Better Drivers
Expert Reports
By DAVID TALBOTT
United Press International
Cleveland, Ohio (UPD Sum
mer weekend driving com
ment: -
Let the women take the
wheel.
For men are more reckless
drivers than women.
So says Mrs. Mildred Gnau,
head of the Cleveland AAA
highway safety program.
"When a man has an acci
dent, it's a good one," said the I
soft-spoken Mrs. Gnau. with
the city's AAA safety program
for 22 years. "But when a
woman has an accident it's
usually a minor thing.
"A man will try to make a
distance record to Drove that
he can do it. A woman will
stop for a cup of coffee rather
than think of setting a
record."
Mrs. Gnau, one of the few
women leaders in highway
safety, believes more women
are needed in her field.
Women More Cautious
"Many women are fright
ened away from the field be
cause they think that any
thing to do with an automo
bile is a man's work," she ex
plained. "But the truth is,
highway safety work is a nat
ural for women. For they are
more safety conscious than
men, because they're natur
ally protective. And often
they have insights that a man
would not.
"I think that the major im
portance of women in high
way safety work is this
women are hot as callous to
ward death as are men. By
nature, a woman is more cau
tious and careful. Then too,
women's organizations are a
terrific tool for getting safety
legislation through."
Asked whether the safety
consciousness of women might
be a factor in some accidents,
Mrs. Gnau laughed.
"I knew that was coming,"
she said. "Many times a wom
an driver will seem confused
as to what she is going to do
next. Actually, she's not con
fused but only being cautious.
She can't make up her mind
whether she is going to do the
safe thing."
Pre-Schooi Start
Mrs. Gnau pointed with
pride to. the two women in
structors she had on the staff
of the AAA driving school.
"The women are more pa
tient and understanding than
men," she said. "At first we
thought we might have
trouble with male students
but it has been the opposite.
No man has ever refused a
woman as an instructor, but
sometimes a woman will say
she prefers to have another
woman as an instructor."
When should driver train
ing and safety training begin?
"It should start with the
pre-school child," said Mrs.
Gnau. "Children, no matter
how small, constantly pick up
information and they are go
ing to grow up in an age on
wheels. '
"The schools are doing an
excellent job of safety train
ing. But sometimes the exam
ple set at home on weekends
is pretty bad. The child sits as
a silent observer while his fa
ther gets out on the wrong
side of the car or mother
dashes across the street
against traffic."
Cakes will rise more evenly,
and pies and biscuits will
brown better if baked in a
shiny pan instead of a dark
one.

Remove fruit stains by pour
ing boiling water over the
spot. Bleach if necessary, but
do not use soap.

To clean clogged steam
irons, fill the iron with dis
tilled yinegar, heat it until
it steams a few mnutes, and
let stand overnight. Then
empty the vinegar and rinse
the iron with distilled water.

Mrs. Krauth.
Stroller Parking
We have a diaper chang

equipment, real small toilets,
a fully equipped kitchen for
parents to prepare food, a

Mrs. Krauth is particularly
proud of the neat, tidy rooms
in her domain. The interior
is a pastel green and there
are lots of cartoon characters
on the walls and curtains.
There's a reception room

"We've planned the station
in such a way that an infant
makes a trip through it with
out having to double back.
Keeps things, going more
smoothly, but mothers never
get the feeling of an assem

Appreciative Comments
."We supply fruit juices,
tissues, disposable diapers,
baby powder, disposable cups
and spoons I guess that's
about it. We've found that
most parents bring their own
milk:"
Mrs. Krauth said she as
sists here and " there when
necessary but that otherwise
she merely guides mothers to
various phases of the station.
"I'd hate to count the dia
pers we've 'given out since we
opened last July," Mrs.
Krauth said. "We've had
more than 12,000 babies from
every state and 31 foreign

New York state. !
Mrs. Krauth, who lives
with her husband, Frederick,
a former Navy flier from
Cincinnati, Ohio, in nearby
Garden Grove, said many
mothers are startled when
they learn that the makers of
a baby food (Pablum) are
footing the bill. She said the

"Real cool."
"Wonderful and thanks."
