- WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS Japan Outlaws Communist Party; Europe Coal-Steel Pact Signed; U. S. Construction at New High (EDITOR’S NOTE: When opinions are expressed In these columns, they are those of Western Newspaper Union’s news analysts and not necessarily of this newspaper.) JAPAN: Outlaws Reds The Japanese Communist party received a serious setback with that government’s announcement that the party would be outlawed In Japan. Observers did not find the move surprising since such action had been hinted and only waited the out come of the general election which was carried by Japan’s Liberal party. The liberals alone stuck to • pro-United States policy in a highly nationalistic campaign. Prime Minister Shigeru Yoshida had announced the action would be taken if there were further acts of violence by Communists. He re ferred to the attack on five U. S. goldiers at a Communist rally on Memorial Day. As expected, the Communists tried to blame the action on the American occupation, but Yoshida quickly denied it. Meanw’hile, the Liberal party seemed assured of victory in the election. Despite rains throughout the country, the voting was heavier than expected. Offici Is said 31,400,- 000 voted, or 70 percent of those eligible. About 60 per cent had been expected. Yoshida’s strong showing had been expected after his government firmly squelched projected Commu nist anti-American rallies an a so called general strike called for elec tion day. COAL-STEEL PLAN: Unites Six Nations Britain’s labor government has been caught short with the an nouncement that six European coun tries have formed a coal-steel al liance. The United States gave the six countries—France, Holland, Bel gium, Luxembourg. Western Ger many, and Italy—its blessing, with, observers pointed out, an eye on the heavy gamble for postwar eco nomic reconstruction of Europe as a means of further winning the cold war. Under the plan, proposed by Rob ert Schuman, French foreign min ister, the six nations have united to produce the sinews of heavy indus try in peace. Observers said it was fairly clear that Britain, struggling to w’in back a high place in world trade, was caught by surprise at the move. The Schuman plan represents a historic surrender of national sov ereignty of all the six countries in their economy. The pooled coal and •teel industries will be directed by an independent international high authority. Neutral observers were especial ly happy over the alliance. It is the first time in history that countries whose differences have caused numerous wars have gotten togeth er to create a community of in terests. This, observers contend, should eliminate the cause of wars. Increased production is also ex pected from the merger. The total joint production could be far great er than the sum of their separate competitive efforts. It was pointed out, for example, the industrial Ruhr needs French coal and France needs the Ruhr steel but each put a premium on the materials they exchanged with each other. Although the British have not joined the alliance or made any commitment on the plan, the way has been left open. Observers said it would certainly give the labor government something to think about BALTIC PLANE: Evidence Damning The United States produced new evidence that the navy patrol plane recently lost in the Baltic was shot down, although the Russians re ported they only drove it out to sea. State department officials said a recovered landing wheel indicated the plane had exploded in mid-air, and had possibly lost a wing before It spun into the sea. The wheel floated because its tire was inflated with air. It was found by a Swedish fishing captain 48 miles off the Coast of Latvia* A navy expert, Lt. Comdr. M. W. Cagle, exhibited the plane’s front landing wheel, and pointed to a lev er in a position showing that the wheel was retracted when the plane crashed. MAI^NA LOA: Brilhant Firework* Mauna Loa, the 13,680-foot vol cano on the leland of Hawaii, turned on a brilliant display of fireworks for Island tourists with the greatest eruption in history. Fortunately, no lives were lost in the eruption that sent streams 'at molten lava across the Island ■ad into the sea. At some points where the lava entered the ocean, *• water was reported near boD- Wg tar . bom ton. Japs Riot Japanese Comunists staged a rally in the shadow of the im perial palace and for the sec ond time violence broke out be tween the Reds and U. S. soldiers. U. S. MP’s (above) are shown breaking up the riot and taking a Jap Communist into custody. CONSTRUCTION: At New High Construction in the United States has reached a new high, according to reports by the department of labor. According to department statis tics, construction valued at nearly $2,000,000,000 was put in place in May. This was ahead of the 1948 and 1949 seasonal peaks. Home construction accounted for much of the advance, although building costs have risen sharply. Private construction in May amounted to $1,400,000,000, an in crease of 12 per cent over April and 27 per cent over May of last year. The home building part of that was estimated at $825,000,000, an in crease of 15 per cent over the month and 56 percent from a year ago. In the first five months of 1950, the total value of all types of new construction was nearly $8,100,000,- 000, an increase of 21 percent from the corresponding period of 1949, the labor department announced. HARRY GOLD: Patriotic Spy Like the little boy who pinched off the icing on his mother's cake, Harry Gold, the American who turned against his own country to spy for Russia, wanted the sweet but didn’t mean to spoil the cake. Explained the Philadelphia bio chemist, no doubt for a gullible American public, he delivered atom bomb secrets to Russia, but “I had no intention of hurting my coun try.” Such an explanation would not appease the intelligence of the six year-old who pinched the icing. How can anyone give away the secrets of his country and not expect to hurt it, observers asked? The Judy Copion case and now the Gold affair have shocked the Amer ican public. Many Americans are remembering stem measures em ployed by founders of the nation in handling spies. The business of espionage, under any circumstances, is a nasty thing. One is not inclined to be angry with a spy such as the Russian agent Gubitchev who was acting under orders. But to turn against your na tive land and give or sell its se crets is an entirely different matter. Now an admitted spy asks the court to appoint him counsel, which he insists be counsel whose pa triotism is unimpeachable, with the respect of the court, the public, and the bar. Further, he insists upon the right to cooperate with the F. 8.1. SEARS, ROEBUCK: Sharp Price Cuts Sears, Roebuck and company, the world’s largest retail merchandise business, has announced price re duction of up to 52 percent of 4,000 items in its midsummer sale cata logue. The merchandising world was startled with the announcement of price cuts that averaged 7 per cent on the items. Seasonal wearing ap parel was cut as much as 41 per cent. More than twice as big as its near est competitor, Sears, Roebuck and company was founded in 1886 and drew its greatest support from the farm population. Although today Sears sells in the big cities, it still keeps its rural touch with all sorts of farm pro jects. Employment Employment In the United State, reached It, highest peak in May alnce laat Auguit, the censua bu reau announced in an optlmiatic report. The number of joblesa dropped from 3,815.000 in April to the May figure of 3,057,000. Employment jumped from 58,808.000 in April to 50,731,000 in May, a gain of 1,063, 000. In May, IMO, there were 58,- 004,000 employed. ST. IGNATIUS POST SUPREME COURT: Three Decisions The U. S. supreme court has handed down three decisions in the current civil rights controversy which will have far-reaching reac tions. The court held that segregation of Negroes in railroad dining cars violates the Interstate Commerce Act, that Negro students must be admitted to the University of Texas law school because the state does not afford them facili ties equal to those for whites, and that Oklahoma had been discrimi nating against Negro students at its state university law school by segregating them in classrooms and elsewhere on the campus. The court, however, did not go into the cases as deeply as the justice department desired. For instance, the justice depart ment argued there can be no such thing as "separate but equal” fa cilities and treatment. It contend ed the mere fact a Negro has to use a separate public facility pre vents him from having an equal facility. It is just as sensible, the department argued, to say that a thing can be "black but white” as to insist it can be "separate and equal.” Observers point out that had the court gone into the matter as deeply as the department asked and ruled in its favor, there would have been practically nothing left of segregation laws. Some students of government be lieve such a ruling would have been a great deal more far-reach ing than the passage by Congress of the much debated F. E. P. C. The court, however, adhered to its long established practice of not determining constitutional issues if other grounds for decisions exist. IOWA ELECTION: Brannan Plan Test The nation watched with interest the final outcome of the primary election in lowa. And the out come was what seasoned policital obervers expected—a final cam paign between Albert J. Loveland and Sen. Burke B. Hickenlooper. There was more to it, however, than just the outcome of a primary election to determine the Demo cratic and Republican senatorial candidates this fall. Loveland. former undersecre tary of agriculture, campaigned against five other Democrats us ing the Brannan farm plan as his main weapon. On the other hand. Senator Hick enlooper is a strong opponent of the plan. He won the Republican nomination easily over two oppon ents. Thus, the fall campaign takes shape. Political observers see Loveland campaigning with the Brannan plan as the main plank in his platform, while on the other hand, Hickenlooper will take his stand against it. Political ob servers are looking forward to this final test on the much de bated plan iu the heart of Ameri ca’s farm belt. Political observers also pointed out that it is almost a sure bet now that President Truman and Secre tary of Agriculture Brannan will campaign in lowa for Loveland. ECONOMY: Budget Cut Hinted Observers are predicting another battle in congress in an attempt to cut President Truman’s budget for the coming years. According to some reports, Re publicans are backing a move for a new cut of the budget which the house last month trimmed $2,068,- 590,504. Some senators would like a flat cut across the boards. But others want to exempt the military estab lishment, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and defense spending. A means of making the cuts on the Senate floor is being sought if the trimming is not done first bv the Senate appropriations committee. Gold Attorney fee - I|fe’ i ' r"' % * John D. M.

BELGIUM: Wants a King While the rest of the world has worried about rebuilding and se curing a permanent peace since World War 11, Belgium has been the scene of one election after another on the question of bringing King Leopold 111 back from exile. The latest of the four elections gives the Social Christian party another victory and would seem to guarantee the return of Leopold to the throne. iiiiH" at |4miixKHnL^^ —z < > — LA Campfire Flavors Are Easy to Capture When You Broil Meat Cuts WHEN YOU LONG for the taste of campfire cookery and still want the convenience of your kitch en, plan some broiled dinners! Broiling gives an irrestible flavor to meats as well as fruits and veg- etables to go with the meats. It s a u 1 c k vV o method of cook- ing, too, for, in most cases, the —"v broiler meal takes only 15 minutes to one-half hour to cook. Most homemakers like to plan several broiled dinners for hot weather because they’re so quick and appetizing. Furthermore, since meat, vegetables and fruits can be placed on the broiling tray, there’s only that single piece of cooking equipment to be washed after din ner, in place of several pots and pans. To simulate a real out-of-doors supper several times a week, plan to serve on gay gingham cloth out on the porch or in the garden. The main course, hot and sizzling from the broiler, is easily carried out side. Select meats for broiling from this list: chopped beef or lamb, sausage, frankfurters, steaks, chick en (broilers), corned beef hash, left over chopped meat, small pieces of meat on skewers, bacon, sweet breads, pre-cooked ham slices, lamb chops, bacon or sausage. Pre-cooked or canned potatoes may be used with the meats, as well as cooked vegetables which need simply to be reheated. Broiled Lamb Chops Dinner (Serves 10) 10 pear halves 3 tablespoons melted butter 5 tomatoes, halved !4 cup chopped onion Salt and pepper Parmesan Cheese 10 loin lamb chops (about 1- inch thick) 5 teaspoons mint jelly Parsley Drain pear halves thoroughly. Brush lightly with butter. Brush tomatoes with butter. Spread 1 tea spoon of onion on each half, w season with salt I* ** 7 and pepper and k / sprinkle with cheese. Arrange lamb chops on broiler 8 to 10 minutes. OMyßSeSgr" Turn, if neces sary. Arrange tomatoes and pear halves on broiler, and finish broiling, another 8 to 10 minutes, or until degree of doneness desired is reached. Just before serving, place mint jelly in pear halves. Garnish with parsley. Broiled Sausage and Pineapple (Serves 4-6) 1 pound sausage (links or bulk) 4-6 slices pineapple Leftover potatoes, peas and carrots. Use sausage links or form bulk sausage into patties. Arrange on broiling pan. Arrange pineapple next to sausage and place potatoes, halved, and peas and carrots in pan j underneath sausage and pineapple. 'Broil until sausage and pineapple are browned. Note: Pineapple .4 Broiled halves of chicken are delightfully brown and juicy and make a delicious main dish when served with whole, browned potatoes and tomato halves. The vegetables are placed in the broiler just a few minutes before the chicken is done. LYNN SAYS: Learn to Use Broiler As Wisely as Possible Catch the drippings that come from meat and poultry when broil ing fowl and use it to season veg etables so that no vitamins and min erals in the drippings are lost. When broiling fowl or cuts of meat or fish that are lean, grease the broiler so that food will not stick to it. Do not allow the broiler to be come overheated as this will cause smoke in the kitchen. > .f r I J . • J J This broiler meal, featuring beef patties, topped with onion rings with a square of cheese, browned potatoes and tomatoes, will be popular with the young folk. The broiler shown here broils food on both sides at the sajne time, and requires no turning. LYNN CHAMBERS’ MENU •Broiled Steak, Au Gratin Potatoes Green Salad, Blue Cheese Dressing Heated Rolls Butter Strawberry Ice Cream Butter Cookies Beverage •Recipe Given slices may be brushed with butter and sprinkled with brown sugar. HOW LONG MEATS are to be broiled is entirely a matter of personal preference. In any case, the exterior of the meat should be uniformly browned and be plump and full in appearance. Red steak has a rosy red interior; medium steak is light pink, while well done steak shows no sign of IZS/cA pink. .A a A minute or * wo b e to re steaks are supposed to be cooked ac cording to pref erence, cut a gash near the bone, turn back meat and see if it meets your de sires. •Broiled Steak, Au Gratin Potatoes (Serves 4) 4-5 potatoes, cooked and diced l’a cups thin cream sauce % cup sharp grated cheese *4 cup fine bread crumbs T-Bone steak (IJ4 to 2 Inches thick) Place potatoes in baking dish and cover with cream sauce. Mix cheese and crumbs and spread over top. Place potatoes in the oven set at 400° and let bake for 20 minutes. Place steak on broiling rack, and broil until done. For a medium rare steak, the broiling time required will be from 20 to 25 minutes for the thickness mentioned above. Broiled Ham with Limas (Serves 4-6) 1 slice ham, %-lnch thick 2 cups cooked lima beans Salt and pepper 2 cups grated American cheese 2 cups grapefruit segments 1% tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons brown sugar Broil ham until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Heat lima beans and pile on top of ham; season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with cheese. To one side of the ham, place grapefruit segments. Brush with butter and sprinkle with sugar. Reduce heat and broil until cheese melts and grapefruit browns slight ly. Broiled Chicken Clean two-pound chickens thor oughly. Split down the back and flatten out by pressing with the hands. Brush skin and underside with butter, then season with salt and pepper. The chicken may first be placed in a hot oven to cook for 15 to 20 minutes, then in the broiler to complete the cooking, another 15 to 30 minutes, depending upon how done one likes it. Broiled Beef Patties (Serves 6) 1 pound ground beef Salt and pepper % cup chill sauce 2 tablespoons fine bread crumbs 6 onion rings Season meat with salt and pep per; blend in chili sauce and bread crumbs. Shape into six flat patties and top with onion rings. Broil until plump, brown and done, as desired. Keep broiler pans washed after each use as the fat and drippings from meat, fish and fowl will easily turn rancid and make your clean ing greater if you let it go. Plan broiler meals for a time when you have leftover, cooked vegetables on hand that can be heated with the meat; otherwise, use canned or freshly cooked veg etables. The thicker the cut of meat broiled, the further iway from the heat of the flame it should be placed.
