By BILL JENEIM
QREOON is back In th headlines
again. Pimm's chain of London
eating houses la sending a Pimm a
Cup to Oorernor McKay for un
usual service to Britain.
A Pimm's Cup Is traditionally
filled with the century-old "drink
of the British empire." Whether
this one will be tilled or not Is not
known.
And why la It being sentf

Oregon's contribution ot Oregon

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?

revenue It was recommended that
the city planning committee mak
a thorough study ot what lota were
being withheld from sale In the rlty
limits, location, and lor what pur
pose thry were bring withheld.
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.
