While in warmer weather, the family could raid the Ice box, now the problem Is slightly differ ent, as hot food, satisfying but still simple, is in demand. Here's a dish that Just seems to fit the bill: the broiled wienies and hot potato salad pictured above. Of course, hot potato salad with wienies is an old favorite but there’s a touch of something new in the wienies broiled with cheese and the green beans around the potato salad to add a touch of color. Broiled Wienies. Select two to three skinless frank furters for each person to be served, two Will do nicely for the girls and women but better count three for the men and boys. Split the frank furter and insert a strip of Ameri can cheese. When almost ready to serve, pop into the broiler and cook until cheese melts and browns slightly. Hot Potato Salad. (Serves 6) 6 potatoes, boiled with skins on Vt cup finely chopped onion 2 hard-cooked eggs, diced Salt and pepper 6 slices bacon, broiled until crisp, crumbled Peel potatoes and cube. Add re maining ingredients. Just before ready to serve, mix with this hot dressing: Cooked Salad Dressing. 3 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon yellow mustard 114 tablespoons flour 1 egg yolk % cup water 2 tablespoons vinegar 1 tablespoon butter Blend dry ingredients, then add egg yolk and blend until smooth. Add water, then vinegar, stirring constantly. Cook over boiling wa ter, stirring all the while, until thick. Remove from fire, add butter and serve hot, mixed with potato salad. Spaghetti is and has been for some time now one of the reigning favor ites among hot dishes to serve in the evening. Here’s one dish you'll like be cause it’s both tart and satisfy ing, with plenty of cheese and sauce baked right into the long strips of spaghetti: Baked Spaghetti. (Serves 8) 1 pound package of spaghetti 3 small onions, chopped fine 2 tablespoons oil 1 pound ground beef 4k pound sausage (in the bulk) 4k pound mushrooms 4k teaspoon pickling spice 1 teaspoon salt 4 small cans tomato sauce 4k pound grated American cheese Cook spaghetti in boiling salted water 12 to 15 minutes.

Put thin layer of spaghetti on bottom of but tered casserole. Then add a layer Lynn Says: Here are a few quick snack ideas you’ll like to paste in your notebook: Baked beans garnished with brown bread, cream cheese sandwiches, placed around the bean pot. You might try the canned baked beans with sliced ham, too. It’s quick, easy and delicious. Toasted buns with ham burgers, cheeseburgers, or ham and cheese slices go over nicely, too. Toasted English muffins with an egg fried or poached with ham are high in favor.

VTEW YORK.—Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, the anthropologist, once had a plan to measure the skulls of ! all congressmen, in his studies o • > * of head-size Brain Indexer, and contour Studying Shills, in their rela . . «, „ tion to intel Ignonng Shull, ligence> The congressmen didn’t like the idea and nothing came of it. Studying skills, rather than skulls, I)r. Leonard Carmichael, president of Tofts college, gets better co-operation. In August, 1940, the government put him at the head of a committee of sav ants to work up a national brain index. They have compiled an index of several hundred thou sand good brains. This committee was known as the National Roster of Scientific and Specialized Personnel, and now there has been added to it a special committee on wartime requirements for specialized personnel, with Dr. Carmichael as chairman. The ob vious function of the committee is to find good brains and recruit them. Since the first World war, the clas sical Binet-Simon Intelligence quo tient has gained by sundry repairs and betterments. The inquiry now covers not only the question of whether we know much of anything but whether we have any sense. In 1920, we saw an experi ment in a progressive school in San Francisco which now seems pertinent to what Dr. Carmich ael and his committee are try ing to do. They picked a group of high I.Q. boys, of superior heredity and cultural back ground, and then they picked some less favored lads, of low I.Q. from the North Beach for eign section. They gave each child a certain amount of mon ey, told him to buy some thing, start trading and report gains or losses in two months. When the bell rang, most of the silk stocking lads had lost their shirts and the North Beach mob had fanned its holdings up to sizeable juvenile fortunes. From this, the pedagogs figured something like survival intelligence as distinguished from merely super imposed and possibly non-converti ble cultural intelligence. It is un questionably survival intelligence that Dr. Carmichael and his brain indexers are looking for. as their study has to do with particularized, specialized, useful, workable skills. Dr. Carmichael, one of the most distinguished of modern psycholo gists, was born in Philadelphia in 1898, and was educated at Tufts and Harvard, and taught at Princeton and Brown before becoming presi dent of Tufts in 1938. P\OWN near Windy Gap, on the edge of Death Valley, we knew a big, dead-pan cow-puncher who doubled in dancing and fighting, and President Quezon Blends Dancing, or smack Politics Perfectly £ ££ parts. Elsewhere, we have found this unique blend of talents only in Manuel Quezon, recently inducted into his second term as president of the Philippines. Sr. Quezon negotiated for Philip pine independence in the New York studio of Arthur Murray, the danc ing master. Dancing is his art, his recreation and his driving passion. Four hours a day went to dancing when he was cutting the islands adrift—with second thoughts later. The first dancing shift was from 10 o’clock until noon. The hours from one to three went to Philippine in dependence, and then the dancing picked up from three to five. The bright-eyed, coffee-colored little man with the dazzling smile so captivated Woodrow Wilson that the President put a declaration for Philippine inde pendence slap-bang into the Democratic platform. But in the Ilawes-C'utting bill, enacted in 1933, Senor Quezon found a one way tariff squeeze, unsatisfac tory guarantees as to the atti tude of Pacific powers, and oth er defects, and started dancing and negotiating his way around these obstacles. He is said to be just about the smartest politician in the business. He is university trained. His father was a Filipino and his mother half Spanish. He smokes cigarettes in an endless chain, dancing or sit ting still, gesticulates fluently and turns the sharp spotlight of a keen, agile, realistic mind on matter in hand. He was wounded in the Phil ippine war for independence and for years strung with the jungle die hards, somewhat embarrassed in his later career by the rampant and bellicose Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo, President Quezon is 59. NATIONAL AFFAIRS R«Wc«r«<y by CARTER FIELD /fir (far Losing Pres* tipe to Old Fashioned Ground Attack ... IF nr Economy Will ‘Itite Deeply . . . (Bell Syndicate—^WNU Service.) - ■■■— WASHINGTON —This war Roose velt and Churchill are agreed, will not be won by a blockade, and it will not be won by bombing. This last was a hard decision to make. Both men had hoped so strongly that when anti-Hitler air power reached sufficient superiority over the Nazis, the Germans could be bombed into submission. Per haps the failure of Hitler to bomb the British into submission should have convinced them earlier. But they were counting on something else. They were counting on the thought that the German morale was not as of tough a fiber as the British. They recalled that it was a collapse of German morale which ended the last war, not the victories won by the Allies in the field or on the sea. But there has entered another fac tor, which a year ago was not con sidered important This is anti aircraft defense. It is perfectly true, as was figured a year ago, that no amount of anti-aircraft defense can prevent bombing. But the battle of Moscow has proved definitely that if the anti-aircraft is good enough, the bombers can be forced to fly so high that, bombsights or no bombsights, they cannot hit specific objectives, particularly if the objectives are small enough. Anti-Aircraft Defenses Another point down the same al ley is that the anti-aircraft defenses of Berlin have made it very expen sive indeed for the British to bomb that city. Just at present it happens we are in one of those phases of every military cycle. First, a new offensive weapon is improved or per fected, and for some time after that the offensive has the advantage. Then some defensive measure is conjured up, and the advantage goes the other way. The Germans won their smashing victories in France and Belgium and Holland when the panzer strate gy was new. It did not work so well after the Russians had studied it for more than a year and worked out a defense. The same thing has been true of bombing. An aviation officer in the U. S. army, discussing the proposed bombing of objectives in Japan, said it would be surprising if the Japs have not learned some thing—first, from the fact that Berlin was making it difficult for British bombers, and later from the brilliant air defense of Moscow. It is really this development, tak en together with the supreme neces sity of not weakening the Soviet front against Hitler, which brought President Roosevelt and Prime Min ister Churchill to see the logic of Stalin's not attacking Japan yet. But by the same token all this spells a huge A.E.F., sooner or lat er, BEFORE we can have peace. • • • Headache Coming After the War The war will not end until we have reached the highest possible tide of war economy, and touched the very bottom of peace-time economy. This spells a headache for AFTER the war. It is generally realized in the government, and plans are accord ingly being made to take care of this peace-time problem. Here and there are optimists who insist that we are bound to have a period of prosperity right after the final armistice. They base their theory on the pattern followed aft er the last war, when it was not until 1920 that economic difficulty appeared. It is a theory easy to understand. When several years have passed with good earnings for everyone willing and able to work, and with ail the people deprived of a number of things they would like to have for the simple reason that they cannot buy them, it is obvious that there will be tremendous piled-up demand. Perhaps the best illustration will j be automobiles and auto supplies. By the end of two years more ol war, to say nothing of five, there will be millions of people in this ; country who want new automobiles, and who have the money to pay for them. These will be people who have been employed at good W'ages all through the war, but who have not been able to spend all their money There will be another large group who have had their old autos in storage because they could not | get tires for them. So there will be a magnificent market for autos and supplies which will take a year or two after the j auto factories have been turned ■ back from wartime to peacetime production before these wants can be satisfied. The same is true, though the totals probably will amount to less dollars, and hence less days' work, in many other lines—electric and gas refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, new utensils, tools, all sorts of things running into hundreds if not thousands of categories.
