Chemical Knowledge Aids Wives NEW YORK (UPD-Food shop ping housewives who did some homework in high school and col lege chemistry find the knowledge gained a handy assist today in managing the family fare and food fundi '"Mbnosodium glutamate," "di- ciycerides," and other food chemi cai-terms, printed on the labels in the grocery, bakery and meal sections, are easy reading for knowledgeable ahoppers going through supermarkets. "Glutamate," the food enhanc er, is a big item. Food packers use an estimated 30 million pounds a year. Other tongue-twisters frequent ly met include: monoglyeerides, humectants, calcium propionate, lecithin, fcorbic acid, nitrites and antioxidants, all merged into the one' term of "additives," which play en important role in the na tion'j food supply. Prevent Spoilage They act to prevent spoilage and boost the keeping quality, fla vor,- color, texture, cooking qual ity end nutritional value of food. The' alert shopper looks for assur ance that the "additives" are safe. If the shopper if not iamiliar with food chemistry terms, this assurance is guaranteed from onel source regulations in the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. By law, chemicals must be printed on labels by the common! or usual, name. Ira term, tail, for instance is used on labels ra ther than the chemical term so dlum chloride. Salt has been add ed to food perhaps longer than any other chemical. Salt was used hy ancient men to preserve the flavor of meat. Chemical terms, difficult to pro nounce, are used where no com mon or usual name, exists fori many additives. "Monosodlum glutamate," is chemical used in certain foods to! bring out the flavor, particularly in combination prepared food! chicken pie, for instance. Calcium propionate is a mold Inhibitor used for bread. Antioxi dants prevent rancidity in fats. Sorbic acid retards the growth of surface bacteria in cheese. Emulslfieri Increase Activity Emulsifiers, such as monoglye erides, diglyccrides and lecithin Increase the "surface activity" ofl fats by breaking the fat Into liny! droplets so that it creams easily and mixes with water. Nitrates and nitrites are curing! agents for maats that help retain a typical red color in cured meats, Coloring agents are used for such products as frozen desserts, gela tin, puddings, maraschino cher ries and kindred products. Humectants are used to prevent drying of shredded coconut. Firm ing agents are used for crispness in picnics, aiMj as ouiirra aiKi neutralize to control acidity and. alkalinity, and fur leavening, clar ifying, hardening, drying and oth er purposes. Consumer protection against harmful additives is guaranteed In the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act, with amendments of 1958 and 1961, reports Ruth Hodgson marketing economist, with the New York State Extension Scrv- ice.

Hate, Tears Upset Student's Try To Mend German-Israel Friendship JERUSALEM, Israel (UPI) The meeting took place in one of the buildings on the Hebrew Uni versity campus in Jerusalem. German and Israeli students sat facing each other across a confer ence table. The atmosphere was tense. One of the Germans was speak ing slowly in English, choosing his words with care. He proposed holding a joint German-Israeli symposium in Germany on the problem of anti-Semitism. The Israeli students stirred rest lessly. One interrupted the Ger man: "Anti-Semitism is your problem, not ours. Considering that so many people in Israel have experienced the Nazi hola caust, it is morally out of the question for Israeli students to go to Germany." The Germans offered to hold the symposium elsewhere In Eu rope. This, too, was rejected by the Israeli students. Suddenly, an Israeli student lumped to his feet and shouted Why don t you go back to oer- many? You are not welcome here!" Turning to his fellow students, he declared: "It Is wrong for us to have anything to do with Ger mans. This meeting is disgrace ful!" Germans Stunned With these words he left the room, followed by five other stu dents. The Germans sat perfectly still, shaken by this outburst. One of the German girls burst into tears. Soon after, the meeting broke up in a slightly more cordial atmo sphere. The Israeli press reacted sharp. ly to the incident. Some newspa pers supported the stand taken by tha six students who had stalked out of the meeting. A few stroni ly condemned the Israel Students Association for arranging this meeting with the Germans. But most of the press showed a more moderate attitude. The Jerusalem Post criticized the Israeli students who had hurled insults at the Germans who are members of a student group railed the "Deutsch-lsraelitische Studentesgruppen DIS. This organization is dedicated to promotion of friendship between Germany and Israel. Those Is raelis who disapproved of such contacts would "have dona better to have stayed away," the Post said. The German students were the! first to visit Israel this year. 1-asl year, over 1.000 came here. Their trips are largely subsidized by Hie German government, church groups, trade unions and factor-j ics. I'arelully selected out of a large number of applicants, thev come here well Inlormed about.

Since the war, a growing move- ment in Germany, consisting at first of individual Germans with an anti-Nazi past and gradually embracing student and religious groups, has been searching for some way to bridge the gulf be tween the two peoples and to atone in some symbolic way for the crimes committed against the Jews in Germany. These are not tourists in the ordinary sense. Many come to do penance. Members of group called "action for symbolic penance" have been spending time in European countries once occupied by the Germans, taking part in constructive building proj ects. Vacation Advised To Check Camera Equipment By BART KINCH United Press International Vacation time soon will be upon us and now Is the time to check photographic equipment and de cide what cameras, films and gadgets to take along. If possible, take both a movie camera and a still camera. The unique features of each of these two photographic media offers something for the picture enthusi ast. The type of film to take along generally is restricted to one s fa- vorite color emulsion. However, it might be wise to take along a few rolls of high speed black-and- white film for those ever recur ring instances where there just wasn't enough light to caputre the subject on color film. A tripod usually Is considered must. However, many photog raphers prefer a small clamp type camera holder that can be attached to the door of a car. table or other nearby object. These clamps are inexpensive and lit into one's pocket. A Skylight Filter will improve aerial shots or mountaintnp views! and there is no "filter factor problem involved. Just fit it over the lens of your camera and for get about it. It also serves as protection for your lens from salt spray when photographing beach scenes. If you have a foreign made camera and are going abroad for your vacation, be sure to register our equipment helm you leave with the U.S. Customs service. It lakes just a few minutes and pre vents any misunderstandings about the orpin of your equipment on your return. Here are a few tips if you plan to travel by plane. Many of them. properly set. A feeler or thickness gauge should be part of your tool collection anyway, as it will,come in handy in checking the plugs in your auto. Most manufacturers call for a gap of .024 to .0,10 of an inch. Furl Important Use the right sort of fuel. A two . cycle engine requires oilgasohne mixture. A four-cycle engine requires that you use these separately. A mistake either wav could cause trouble. Ignition and carburetor trouble are also possible. But unless you are familiar mth this sort of serv icing, better leave this to some one who services these motor powered tools. One thing to remember when you work on a motorpoered tool: Ala disconnect the wire to the spark plug before working. Sunday, May 26, 1963 In Israel, tliey ask to be al lowed to work in border settle ments where manpower is scarce. Out of a total of 273 settlements approached, only 12 so far have! agreed to accept Germans as working visitors. These 12 are young villages of Israeli-born Sabras who do not share the personal memories of older Jews of European origin who lost par ents, brothers, sisters or children in the Nazi holocaust. Ten years ago meetings such as the student groups would have been impossible. No German was permitted to enter Israel and Is. raeli passports were stamped: "Not valid for travel in Ger many. Photogs obviously, will apply to otheri means of transportation. While flying, make your lens setting half a lens stop less than lor normal on the ground expos, ure. Whenever possible, sit on the shadow side of the plane (train, or automobile). Don't rest your camera on the window. Vibration of the plane or other vehicle you may be In will cause camera shake. Use a Skylight Filter. A medium telephoto lens will tend to make objects appear less lar away. A flash gun, either electronic or bulb, should prove a useful ac cessory. Some night clubs will permit you to flash to photograph various acts. iBe sure to get per mission'. Hash also is useful as a fill-in light for brightening dark liadow areas. It also can be used in daylight to fill in shadow areas. Remember to protect your film from intense heat. That applies lor both exposed and unexposed film. Ersatz Scotch Whiskey Never Saw Bonny Braes SEGOVIA. Spam (UPI-A dis tiller here is out to scuttle the Scots dram by dram. His weapon: good "Scotch" whisky, brewed on the bonney braes of Segovia, and sold at less than half the price S2 of whisky imported from Scotland ($467). The new whisky, 10 years in the making, is called "DYC." It cost Spanish industrialist Nic- omedes Garcia Gome nearly 13 million. It went on sale in Madrid re cntly and imported Scotch whis kies dropped an average of al most tt a bottle in price.

That's because the ' "Polar Route" is within the closest strik ing distance to the heartland of the United States, they say. Rockets, armed with nuclear warheads, would come raining down on huge population centers of the U.S. mainland within a few minutes. I Defense commanders point out Socialism Predicted For Brazil RIO DE JANEIRO (UPD-The man who drew up Brazil's three year stabilization plan is called a Communist by the Brazilian rignt. They charge his plan will lead to socialism in Brazil. But economic minister without portfolio Celso Furtado laughs at these charges. In a country to diverse as Brazil such a wide-ranging plan is bound to have enemies ene mies who don't want to see chang es," he said, "But I tell you: this is the most progressive plan that has ever been created in Latin America. And it will be used in line with Alliance for Progress." Furtado, 42, is a native of Bra zil's drought - ridden northeast where millions of hungry peasants without jobs present a constant danger for the Brazilian govern ment. A good part of Furtado's life has been spent trying to relieve mis ery in the northeast and to raise the eight-state region to the level of the central-southern Brazilian industrial heartland. He is head of the federal North east Development Agency fSU- DENE) one of the main recip ients of Alliance for Progress funds. Furtado also is sort of an eco nomic planning czar for Brazil as it tries to lift itself out of foreign debt and end inflation. "I didn't create the three-year plan," he said. "1 only helped to bring together the work of other experts and put it into its final form. He is sure the plan will achieve its aims. "We will retain our high eco nomic growth rate and cut in f 1 lion from 50 per cent to 10 per cent by 1965," he said. I am sure the foreign investments we need will come, because this is one of the most progressive plans Latin America has seen. For the first time a plan has integrated both long and short term goals. We know where we are going to morrow and where we are going in 1965." Furtado fought as member of the Brazilian Expeditionary Forc es in the Italian campaign of World War II under U.S. Gen. Mark Clark. He graduated in law from the University of Brazil in 1944, and then received a doctorate in eco nomics from the University of Pa ris. He worked one year as a re search student at King's Univer sity of Cambridge in England. He returned to Brazil and was a financial expert with the govern ment until 1949 when he joined the permanent staff of the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America. finding the right kirid of water. Advised by his help that he could not make good whiskv without soft water, he hired teams to test water supplies all over Spain. The choice was this ancient town, where pure mountain water still comes down from the Guad- arrama range across a stone aque duct built many years ago by the Romans. Garcia Gomez, already a big producer of Spanish brandy, w ine and liquors, carefully avoided call ing his whisky "Scotch" on the label. But to a whisky drinker's palate there is no doubt what type it is. though the label's only hint Is "finely blended whisky."

Lack of Defense U.S. commanders admit there is no defense against enemy mis. siles at this time. The best that could be done would be to detect rockets racing across the top of the world and give the U.S. main land a 15-minute warning. The United States ha devised a defense network of three "watchtowers" across the top'of the world. It is called Ballistic Missile Ear ly Warning System (BMEWS). Perhaps the most important of these stations is the one located here in the remote Alaskan back country some 60 miles from Fair banks. The temperature now rang es 50 to 60 degrees below zero. This site is closest of the three "watchtowers" to Russia. Anoth er is at Thule, Greenland, and the third is nearing completion at Fylingdales Moor, England. Cost to U.S. taxpayers $1 billion. Must Signal Attack The primary job of the BMEWS is to provide advance warning of a missile attack. This station, like the others, has a scanning range of 3,000 miles or more over all the Eurasian land mass from which missiles could be launched Should a Soviet missile be launched, the alarm would be sig naled to the North American De fense Command (NORAD) head quarters in Colorado Springs, Colo. This would give the United States, in terms of tunc, a w arning of a quarter of an hour. This would be enough to send America's devastating retaliatory power, ICBM's and Strategic Air Command bombers, against the enemy in the early stages of con flict. The United States has an anti missile missile, the Nike Zeus, but it is not yet operational. A Soviet missile attack, in event of a nuclear war, also would come from submarines. But the main attack, military officials be lieve, would come from over the top of the world. This is our most critical area, a defense commander said. Paris Seen Booming City PARIS I UPI i - Paris w ill be a booming, modern city of 12 to 16 million persons by the end of the century, according to a gov ernment forecast. ( The forecast was released by Paul Delouvrier, government planner for the Paris area. It has become more and more evident that modern Paris, with 8 million residents and 2 million vehicles, cannot operate on the same streets laid down in the 18th century. The city than had 2 million residents and 100,000 horses. The planner's design calls for expansion of the city's two sub urban superhighways to make a network of 10 express roads skirt ing the city. Then fast subway trains would carry workers to their jobs. The report said present - day Parisians are among the coun try's most poorly lodged persons, with 80 per cent of the city's homes more than 30 years old and 2 million of the city's 3 3 mil lion homes having neither a bath nor a shower. Some 500.000 of these homes and apartments don't even have water on the same floor, accord ing to the report. Delouvrier's report was con cerned principally with the city's future growth through 19T5. but included additional surveys of the probable situation through the year 2.000. !l was felt that any,., , ,.
