According to the otticuls this dish is prepared in this way: add fish cut in one-inch strips to a thick cream sauce ot margarine, flour and milk: saute onions and add to sauce along with carrots and peas: turn Into baking dish and top with mashed potatoes: bake lor 30 minutes. Mr. Finney, who. runs the Pimm's chain, has this to eay about the adoption of this dish; "This kind ot cheerful assistance can do more tor th individual Britisher's morale than dollar aid. Our diet has be come unbearably dull and monot onous, with eating Just a dreary necessity." In commenting further cm his recent tour ot th US Finney made this statement ". . . I found that much to my pleased supriae, most American foods wer varied and tasty." Makes you feel good, doesu't it, to think that at long last Britain has recognised th United Slates?

In considering recreational fund receipts several discrepancies were noted. The first point brought to the councils attention was the dll ference be' ween the recreation de partments estimated and actual revenues for the last llscal year. There mas a diflerenre ol some U 1.000 when tIS.IMM was estlmal ed. but revenues totaled only taiUJl. However. It was noted that the method of budget estimation ued by the department was necessary In order Cial any luiida which might come Into t.e department could be! used without gaining consent of the j council. Shortages, Overages Several Instances of shortages, and overagea were discovert d by 1 the audit with rrterence to tnei handling ot loose cnange obtained ' br the city swimming pool and sou-1 ball league. It was brought out In the budget ; that payments of officials and oth-1 er employ . is maae in cash and deducted from the cash receipts be-1 for the latter are turned over to I the police Judge. ' The matter was discussed with ' City Recreation Director Bam j Smith, the audit set forth, and Smith stated "that the Softball1 League regulations required that Its officials be paid immediately in cash." Smith further stated, how ever, that every rllort was being made to discontinue the practice. I It was further noted that e m- j ployes In the recreation department handling funds were not bonded, i The council was agreed on th point that the handling of funds in I the recreation department waa done j "in a loose manner." and that some I changes would have to be made in 1 that regard. I Payrolls I Further discussion waa torthcom- j lng over the matter ot expendi- tures on payrolls in several depart ments, j In some depsrtments. notably the street, parking meter, fir and po- j Uc departments, tnera had been in-1 stances ot overtime pay not ac-1 counted In the Individual budgets. I However, It was seen thst In all ; instances the overtime payment had : been made possible through an ex cess ot money thst had accrued ! through a shortage of personnel at ' various times. j Overtime The procedure ol overtime psy i was determined to be legal so long as the yearly budget was not ex ceeded. Further reading of the audit re vealed, though, that there had been actual expenditures tor payrolls that exceeded the budgetary amount In both the library and the Llnkvlll cemetery ledgers. These Instances ot payments will be brought up for further study at a future meeting of tne council. It Is anticipated that one addition al council meeting will see com pletion of the audit atudy, and that all discrepancies discovered will be token up Individually with the vari ous heeds ol depsrtments.
