He is the brother of Albert Allen, E. Lester. My dearest Mom, Dad, and Syl: Phyllis telis me that there is a real interest amongst the people back home in the details of daily life here. Thank God we are in a position not to have to contend with unbearable conditions, yet we cannot help but feel deepest concern for the majority of the people here who cannot escape these unpleasant details. There is no question that the standard of living has deteriorated critically from the time of our arrival here over two years ago and especially rapidly in the last several months. People back home can never real ize how important a very small piece of ice may be to a family who wishes to preserve the bit of milk for the baby’s ration or such other meagre foods they may be able to acquire by rations. Yet, if you could have seen the long ice waiting lines form in the dark hours of the morning awaiting the arrival of an ice team and the completely desperate deportment of the people in the line waiting to get their ice before the supply is exhausted or eager to get to work. It is difficult to find the place to lay the blame for this condition. It was claimed by some to be political, by others, to be an engineering problem of machin ery and raw material, but I think it is safe to say that it is basically because Israel is a very poor coun try which has taken upon itself the noble project of bringing in hundreds of thousands of refugees who have no material contribution to make, but do require the every day necessities of life.

When supplies of towels or underwear are known to be released for distribution, people get into a waiting line for hours and hours and only the for tunate few at the beginning can get a single item. The same goes for food and every other neces sity. It takes all of a person’s day simply to get whatever little sup ply of food is available. It is a serious strain to public morale and a great deterrent to efficiency and health. I would not have the right to keep my family here under the worst of the conditions which pre vail and it is only because we were able to supply ourselves from America and because of the nature of my work, which leaves me master of my own time and thus able to help Phyllis with the shopping, that I feel justified in exposing my family to reasonable deprivations, for the privilege of working here and witnessing the building of what we hope will be a truly great, noble and democra tic nation in this backward area of the world. Os course there are parts to the picture which are not so bleak— there are many new settlements and industries and it gives one a good feeling to travel thru the country and to see these develop ments. As for ourselves, we are very happy and very much taken up with our own family and the fine friends we have made. We are quite content without the great variety of luxuries that we previ ously considered essential. For example, during the present elec tricity shortage when we must restrict our use of cooking, heat ing, ironing, etc. electricity, from 3:30 to 6 P.M., and from 10 P.M. to 7 A.M., we suddenly find we j SEASON’S GREETINGS j from MR.

HINMAN OLD PUEBLO BOWLING ALLEY 250 N. Stone Phone 2-9460 Latkes For Hanukah By TERRY ELMAN The late Fanny Brice had a special trick for “grey-less” potato pancakes. She didn’t use a grater. First, Fanny ground the pota toes and onions together, using the finest blade of the meat grinder. She put a bowl on the floor un der the grinder to catch the drip pings of the potato and onion. After the grinding was finished, she picked up the bowl and show ed me that the residue in the bot tom of the bowl was starch . . . which she discarded but she did use the liquid from the onion. Miss Brice explained that her pan cakes were not fattening because most of the starch was left in the bottom of the bowl. She poured the juice off the starch that had settled and added the liquid to the ground potatoes and onions. In another bowl she separated the yolks and whites of the eggs and beat the whites until they stood in peaks. Doing this, pan cakes were bound to come out light and fluffy. She spread them out on a cookie sheet in a hot oven, after frying, explaining if she would pile one on top of an other they would become soggy, while if air circulates around the pancakes, they would remain crispy until eaten. Serve plain, with sour cream, apple sauce, or jam. Recipe: 4 medium potatoes V\ cup flour 1 egg, separated 1 teaspoon salt Pepper 1 tablespoon onion (ground) can live that way when we find that we must. You just stop tak ing things for granted and become more appreciative of what you have.
