Cooking - Salad Oil Today we touch briefly on "corn oil which has been re fined to the nth degree as a cooking and salad oil. Intro duced to consumers in 1911, it has assumed a major role in cooking, in baking as a "melted shortening", and In the making of dressings for salads without whuh no wet em dav would be complete.

MEDFORP, OREGON , . FRIDAY. MARCH 8. 1963 g j to Ireland When 'Small' Tax Cloud '. Appears' IT wm T" il lltT. 1 1 4 4 1. f . ..... (Last of Two Parts) By FRANK H. BARTHOLOMEW United Press International San Francisco - (UPU - John A. T. Galvin, a working news paperman who took time out to make $150 million in a mining venture, brought back an air of the fabulous 1800s when he came to California from Australia, China and Malaya. And then he was off to Ireland, leaving behind be wildered friends and beleag uered attorneys. Galvin owns ranches the length of California, from the Oregon line to Santa Barbara. All now are under attach ment by the federal govern ment for income tax claims of $21,546,898, the largest do mestic assessment ever levied. Galvin, his shy Irish wife Eileen and five children came to California in 1952 and es tablished themselves in Wood side, an exclusive area south of San Francisco and a center of the city's social life. Impact Immediate Here the impact of $150 million was immediate, pro found and varied. The society editor of the San Francisco Examiner was to write later in a front-page story: "Society will long be talk ing about the Australian-born multi-millionaire, now in Ire land, who came to San Fran cisco 100 years too late. Famed Biochemist Cornish, 59, Dies Berkeley, Calif. (UPD Dr. Robert Cornish, 59, a bio chemist whose efforts to res urrect an executed murderer 16 years ago made him the center of a medical, legal and moral muror, died Wednes day. Cornish attracted national attention in the 1930s when he was able to restore dead dogs to life in experiments at his University of California laboratory. He died at Merrick hospital following a heart attack. His work made him the tar get of an antivlvisectionist protest which caused his re moval from the university where he had set a brilliant array of academic records. He was, at the age of 22, the youngest person to re ceive a doctorate from the university. Four years earlier, in 1922, he was graduated at the age of 18, at that time the youngest graduate and the youngest member of the Phi Beta Kappa honorary society. Dog Lived 18 Months In his experiments with dogs, he would kill the ani mals with nitrogen gas and then, about five minutes later, inject a solution composed of blood, heparin and adrenalin. One dog named Lazrus IV lost his sight but seemed oth erwise unaffected by his five- minute "death. " Lazrus lived way with it, is to make a Southern Corn Pudding like this for 6 fine servings. 1 1-pound can cream style corn 3 eggs 2 tablespoons melted butter 2 cups warm milk Wt teaspoons salt i4 teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons finely chop ped onion. Combine corn, well beaten eggs and the remaining in gredients. Mix well and put in a greased casserole. Set in a shallow pan of warm water and bake in a moderate oven, 350 degrees, about one hour and 15 minutes or until an in serted knife blade comes out clean. Sipping Soups Can Bt Show-Offs Everyone likes to show off -just a little bit. Why not put this ego to work in such sim ple ways as these: Tomato Twist. Place two 10'4-ounce cans condensed cans condensed tomato soup in refrigerator for a few hours. Combine with two cups cold water, one-half cup 1cm-on-llme soda. Serve in chilled glasses with twist of lemon rind. Six servings. Pep Cocktail. Combine two 10'4-ounce cans condensed beef broth with one soup can tomato or vegetable juice; pour over ice cubes. Six serv ings. , Herbed Vegetable Juice. In pint jar or bowl, combine one half teaspoon ground oregano and one tablespoon hot wa ter; let stand for several min ues to extract flavor. Add 12 ounce can of V-8 vegetable juices. Chill. Three servings. Chived Beef Broth. In sauce pan, combine one lO'-ounce can condensed beef broth, one soup can water and one table spoon chopped chives. Heal; simmer a few minutes. Gar nish each serving with whip ped sweet or dairy sour cream. 'He belongs to the era of the bonanza kings and the get-rich-quick diamonds in the rough who spent their for tunes building monstrous houses on Nob Hill and buy ing jewels for their wives and fine horses for their daugh ters. "Eileen (Pat) Gavin, his slender, shy Irish wife, has a necklace of diamonds as large as almonds. 'She hates it,' a friend of the Galvins told us. 'But he is so proud of that necklace.' "A Woodside matron said: 'The Galvins simply weren't socially acceptable. He tried too hard. We don't like people who go throwing their money about.' " Another resident of Wood side, however, referred to Gal vin as "the most generous man I ever knew." He cited Galvin's large contributions to church and charity, a free ballet school for the neigh borhood youngsters in the Galvin mansion, and free trips to Europe for friends of the Galvin children including Ma rina Romanov, daughter of Prince and Princess Vasili Romanov. Move to Ranch Perhaps because of this mixed' reception, the Galvins left Woodside and established themselves at the Rancho San Fernando Rey in the Santa Ynez valley, close to Santa another 18 months before he died of pneumonia. Cornish, a Roman Catholic, made several efforts to get permission to try his experi ments on condemned men, but was repeatedly turned down. He appealed to the wardens of state prisons in Colorado and Nevada, where convicts were executed in the gas chamber, but his proposals were rejected vehemently. Church leaders debated the morality of his experiments. In 1947 he appealed to Gov. Earl Warren for permission to attempt to resurrect the re mains of Thomas H. McMon- igle, 31, a sex slayer. McMon igle had consented to the ex periment "in the interest of science." Request Was Denied But Cornish's request was denied after being shunted through several state offices, none of which found avail able authority for a ruling on attempted resurrection of a state ward. Cornish's theories drew the scoffs of doctors throughout the country as well as the objections of organizations such as the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani mals. A phychiatrist at Johns Hopkins university said Laz rus IV, the dog which was brought back to life, was sim ply a corpse mechanically re acting to stimuli. After his unsuccessful at tempts to try his experiments on convicts, Cornish, a bach elor, moved to a dilapidated tin shack in Berkeley and turned to more practical proj ects. He marketed a dentifrice of his own formula, called Dr. Cornish's tooth powder, and made a steam-resistant paint for turkish baths. Later he dealt in war surplus goods. Chemist John Finn, a friend and associate of Cornish, said Wednesday, "He not only an ticipated the Russians in the resurrection of animals but probably was the first to show that death is not necessarily provable by a stethoscope." Grounded Cargo Ship Floats Free Boston - (UPD - A 467-foot Greek cargo ship floated free In high tides Thursday about four hours after it ran aground in 12 feet of muddy water In Boston Harbor. The Nymphe tore loose from the Deer Island flats near Logan International Air port just as a tug from the Boston Tow Boat Co. arrived on the scene to help pull it free. Earlier the skipper of the boat had refused assistance from the tugs. It was not known how many persons were aboard the craft. A spokesman aboard the craft reported It was in dan ger of sinking shortly after it ran aground. But the Coast Guard said the report was false and that the spokesman had "apparently panicked." BILL PASSES Salem - OW - A bill clear ing the way for Multnomah county to build an athletic complex if it is chosen for the 1968 Olympic games 'passed the House Thursday, V inn ' AGAIN BUYING ESTATES - John A. T. Galvin,. multimil lionaire who allegedly owes the U.S. government some $21, 546,898 in back income tax, is reportedly again buying estates, this time in Ireland. Galvin left the country abruptly last summer when the first hint of his tax trouble developed, (UPI) Barbara but separated from the city by high San Marcos Pass. This beautiful Spanish rancho of 35,000 acres was purchased for approximately $1,250,000. The Galvin fam ily immediately began exten sive additions, including a modern school building for the children of ranch employ ees. Stables with a mirror-wall I "4 7l . i ed inside training track for show horses were added. The U. S. equestrian team for the 1960 Olympics trained there. Galvin's oldest daughter, 22 year - old Patricia "Trish," emerged from the competition in Rome as the top woman dressage rider in the world. Host Hunt Clubs At San Fernando Rey hunt clubs from various parts of California ' were entertained. Why U.S. Savings Bonds make such good gifts for your grandchildren (or children or nieces or nephews) fe!fer'-- V fho e fir The U.S. Savings Bond you give to a loved one carries two important messages with it. First it says that here's a gift that will, grow in value and some day go toward college tuition or a home or keep on growing as a nest egg for the future. Even more important, It says to a grandchild or niece: Here's a gift that makes you a saver. That helps you take your place among a nation of savers. That starts you off on the road to financial strength which is really the strength of your country. And while your gift is growing, the dollars are working hard for freedom in a world where the Keep freedom in your future with ILLS. SAVINGS BONDS. sometimes two clubs at once, Usually among the visiting clubs was the Los Altos Hunt, which Galvin had helped or ganize when he lived in Wood side. Here this writer cam e to know John A. T. Galvin as a quiet man, not averse to a little good-humored boasting in low key of his colorful life including his work for the United Press bureau in Hong Kong. But he never referred to his wealth or his war serv ice with the British Ministry of Information. He was an ardent church man, : abstemious but intent upon seeing to it that all his guests enjoyed themselves. He appeared to enjoy cocktail gatherings by concentrating on the pleasure of his guests. In the lavish hunt club af fairs, which became a New Year's day classic, his trim wife and Trish were usually in the forefront of the riders, but the host, in rough clothes, bumped across country In a radio-equipped land rover. Buys Second Ranch Galvin, loving good horses and wide lands, bought anoth er 75,000-acre ranch in north ern California for $5 million, and a large cattle ranch be tween Sonoma and Petaluma with his brother-in-law, Dr. Robert Lawson. By midsummer of last year, a small tax cloud appeared Tht U.S. Govtrnmtnt doei not pay for tki$ adverliting.

As suddenly as they had left Woodside for San Fernando Rey, the Gal vins left the big ranch and America, The school was closed, the horses shipped out, the foun. dations of the new casa gran de filled in. The great ranch was silent, reduced to care taker status as it is today. In July the Galvin family appeared in Dublin and went into self-imposed secrecy at the Hotel Shelbourne. The staff has been instructed not to give out any information on their day-to-day activities, nor relay telephone calls from a curious press. The family, noted for its outgiving and friendly attitude, now takes most of their meals in their suite. Callers are mainly of the horsey set. Buys Up Estates Currently, however, real estate records indicate that John A. T. Galvin, the former Hobart newsboy, is again buy ing estates in the grand man ner. First acquisition was an old styled mansion, Loughlins town House in County Dublin, bought by Galvin with its 166 acres for $444,000. The house is now being reconstructed and the family is about ready to move in. Next, 300 more acres were acquired in Sandyford for a total of $495,000. enemies of freedom grow tougher and nor de termined every day. Few other gifts accomplish as much as Savings Bonds. Why not start giving them today? (If you're a grandfather several times, you'll probably be most interested in the ?25 variety which sells for $18.75 at any bank.) Quick facts about U.S. Savings Bonds You get $4 for every $3 at maturity You can get your money anytime Your Bonds art replaced free if lost, destroyed, or stolen You can save auto matically on Payroll Savings. , Meantime, between 15 and 20 show horses have arrived for the Galvins, most of them presumably from the Rancho San Fernando Rey. They are stabled on the estate of a friend in County Dublin. Irish rumor has it that Gal vin is now building a private show jumping area in the Sandyford area, with luxury villas in the American style to house visiting show jump ing teams from the United States and other countries. None of the Galvins will com ment. Lawyers Busy Meantime in San Francisco, New York and Washington, Galvin's financial counselors and tax attorneys are exam ining his situation with the federal authorities, seeking ways and means to get the tax liens lifted against his birony in California. If this cannot be done by negotiation, the matter must be taken to the tax court be fore the 150-day deadline for appealing expires in May, After the tax court, Galvin has as an available alterna tive the U. S. Court of Ap peals. Eventually the Su preme Court of the United States may be called upon to determine whether or not the reporter who interviewed Moa Tse-tung not so many years ago now owes $21,546, 898 in back income taxes.
