Parties seem to move along more smoothly after a bit of fun and fun it is to find an Irish Paddy's Pig at your place at ( Jr the table! Small ' Jf Irish potatoes, ( K V scrubbed until VjQ ' j they shine, make YTv the fat bodies of the pigs. For the Are "left-over- a problem In your household?

Next week Eleanor Howe will give you some of her own favorite recipes and suggestions for using odds and ends of vegetables and meats, and even a hint or two for using stale cake and pie. add a few quartered marshmallows and fold until melted. This dress-ing will be sweeter and fluffier than the original and is perfectly delight- - head, fasten a large round gum drop to one end of each potato, with a toothpick.. Make the snout from a small gum drop pinched to the proper shape, and fasten it to the head with a toothpick. Insert whole cloves for "facial features." Cut ears and a curly tail from Jelly strings and fasten these in position with toothpicks too. Small gum drops, fastened to the body with toothpicks, make the legs. Nut cups which look like Paddy's clay pipe, can be made from marsh-mallow- s, green cellophane soda straws, and a bit of green ribbon. With a pair of sharp-pointe- d scis-sors, hollow out the center of the marshmallow slightly, to form the bowl of the pipe. Tie a green rib-bon (with a jaunty bow) around the pipe bowl, and insert a cellophane soda sipper low in one side, for the stem. These two party menus are ful to keep on hand for fruit salads of all kinds. Angel Food Snowballs.

LaBINE Merger of Two Wars Feared If Allies Send Aid to Finland; Poles Drill Big Army in France (EDITOR'S NOTE When opinions are expressed In these columns, they are those of the news analyst and not neoessarily of this newspaper.) . Released by Western Newspaper Union U.S. and the Wars: After Six Months Six months had passed since Germany invaded Poland, since President Roosevelt summoned congress to safeguard U. S. neu-trality. Good intentions notwithstanding, the U. S. found itself deeply concerned with Europe's wars politically, financially, economically, socially.

S. may seek means to help the farmer, whose exports have been reduced since the war start-ed. Main reason for woe: Allies claim they need all their foreign exchange to buy munitions. One possible remedy is an excise tax on munitions exports which might be paid to farmers. Trade U. S. exports exceeded Imports In January by $126,589,000, the larg-est margin in recent years. One unhappy trend: Gold and silver holdings of the U. S. piled higher and higher as foreign nations used this method to pay for their pur-chases. Industry Latest item In the $1,000,000,000 worth of allied war purchases in the U. S. was a $20,000,000 contract placed with Douglas Aircraft com-pany for construction of bombers for Great Britain. ed by one CoL Charles Sweeney (believed an American soldier of fortune) and ordered to report in Toronto for aviation training. The FBI went to work. Maritime The U. S. had two British block-ade problems: (1) Britain sought Canadian In establish-ing a contraband control system in the Pacific to stop U. S. rubber and tin from reaching Siberian Russia, from whence it may be going to Germany; (2) clippers, avoiding British mail seizures at Bermuda, decided to fly direct from the U. S. to the Azores and Lisbon. Congress Ironed out were senate-hous- e dif-ferences in the measure to raise the Export-Impor- t bank's lending power by $100,000,000, thus provid-ing $20,000,000 for purchases by Finland. President, but a long-rang- e defense program must be arranged to ex-tend throughout Central America and as far south as Ecuador, Colom-bia and Venezuela. Reason for this, he said, was the need for a better opportunity to dis-cover an attacking force at a much longer distance from the canal. Even the new Caribbean fortresses were inadequate protection from the east, he maintained. An interested observer was Augusto Boyd, president of little Panama, whose country will profit by heavy U. S. expenditures in the Canal Zone. Said he, after a con-ference aboard the Tuscaloosa: "I think we're all in the same boat. Latin America must with the United States in defense of the canal ... We are In there 100 per cent as far as is con-cerned . . ." DOMESTIC: Nose Count EUROPE: The Wars Finnish Front. Around Viipurl on the Karelian isthmus and near Pet-sam- o in the far north, Finland's defenders continued retreating be-fore Russian pressure. But the Finns held their ground at the "waistline," halfway up the border. Western Front Increased patrol and artillery activity was acknowl-edged by both high commands. Heavy German troop movements were reported near Luxembourg, and the Nazis were said to be ex-tending the Siegfried line along the Belgian and Dutch frontiers. In the Air. British reconnaissance planes flew over Berlin two succes- - Congress' Work Passed by the House: (1) The senate-approve- d bill to give Fin-land a $20,000,000 loan; (2) a $60,000,000 appropria-tion to keep crop control checks flowing to farmers. Proposed: By Sen. Robert F. Wagner (D.-N- . Y.), legislation to regulate investment companies on behalf of the Securities and Exchange commission. Sent to the Senate: The house-approve- d resolution to extend for three years the administration's reciprocal trade program. Argued in Both Houses: The 1940 census, scheduled to start April 1. While Census Director W. L. Austin moaned, Republi-can orators urged constituents to risk penalties by not giving "personal" information which is "none of their damned business." Maginot line already well manned, observers had reason to wonder where Poland-in-exil- e will send its first five divisions which will be ready for action by midsummer. Finland seemed the best bet for be-hind a ceaseless barrage of rumors and counter-rumor- s flooding Europe this month, could be seen an ever-narrowi-breach between the two wars. Both London and Paris reported it was certain the allies would land Of all questions in the 1940 census, none has drawn more fire than those regarding personal income. When census takers begin their rounds April 1 many a citizen will prob-ably refuse to answer these ques-tions despite the threat of a fine. Adding weight to the G. O. campaign of protest Miss Catherine Curtis of New York ap-peared before the senate on behalf of women inves-tors. Said she: Congress will have to enlarge the jails to house protest-ing women if income questions are not stricken from the census. Nevertheless Census Director Wi-lliam Austin went ahead with his plans, hoping his nose-cou- will not be completely sabotaged. Mean-while the department of commerce announced creation of a new nation-al income division which will "an-alyze and interpret the flow of in-come from various sources and its expenditure in the final analysis for goods and services." For its source material the division will probe every source of personal income data available, including social se-curity records, bureau of internal revenue and the 1940 census.

Allied warships, massing in the Arctic sea to block Russian-Germa- n sea commerce, sank two Nazi merchantmen near the Finnish shore. An undenied report of naval activity off Petsamo was considered by observers as the first sign that Europe's two wars may merge. Behind Scenes Somewhere in France correspond-ents discovered Gen. Wladyslaw Sikorski of Poland drilling almost 100,000 troops peasant boys, stu-dents, miners and professionals men who escaped from Poland after Germany's blitzkrieg. With France's in 11 states will cast their ballots, the principal issue being affiliation with C. I. O. or A. F. of L. POLITICS: Victory in Ohio Both Republicans and Democrats conceded that Ohio's sev-enteenth congressional district was a sounding board for Ohio's political cross-current- s. In that district. Re-publican J. Harry McGregor was fighting it out with Democrat Byron Ashbrook, nephew of the late Rep. William A. Ashbrook. In the twenty-secon- d district a Re-publican victory was not unexpect-ed, provided Ohio would send a woman to congress. Hoping It would, socially prominent Mrs. Frances Payne Bolton sought to suc-ceed her late husband. When the votes were In Mrs. Bol-ton found herself elected. So did an army at far-nort- h Petsamo, sup-plementing spasmodic aid which has dribbled to the Finns through Nor-way and Sweden. In the light of this possibility, German overtures in Scandinavia seemed ominous. The overtures: Nazidom has sought a Finnish-Russia- n truce to stop consumption of Russian war materials and thus get more for her-self; Hitler has also threatened In-tervention on Russia's side if an al-lied expeditionary force is sent to Finland's aid. He had also hinted to Norway and Sweden that it would be best for them to block allied aid to the Finns if they wanted to escape the war. But at the same time he had not overlooked the value of Scandinavian friendship, for Swed-ish iron ore would be cut off if the northern countries joined Britain and France. Peace Gesture Despite gloomy news, irrepressi-ble peace rumors stfll bobbed to the surface. In London Lord Tavistock, chairman of the British council for Christian settlement, said he had re-- Republica n McGregor, which was a significant victory if the prophetic seventeenth district wasn't fool-ing. At Wash-- i n g 1 0 n the G. O. P. co-ngress i 0 n a 1 pp" ceived a set of peace terms through Germany's legation in Dublin. These he had passed on to Foreign Secre-tary Viscount Halifax. The terms: (1) Independence to Slovakia; (2) independence to Poland, with an out-let to the sea; (3) a plebiscite in Austria, maybe; (4) disarmament, if others will do likewise; (5) Ger-man to the League of Na-tions, provided Britain doesn't con-tinue to run the show. To most ob-servers, they looked like the same old set of peace terms brightened with a new coat of paint Mr. Welles Goes Calling Hastily concluding his preliminary discussions in Rome with Benito Mussolini, Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles hurried to Switzer-land and thence to Berlin. What had been advertised as a fact-findin- g expedition was developing (as everyone had expect-ed) into a queer peace offensive. Premier Mussolini had evidently told Mr. Welles his terms, and it was widely advertised that Adolf Hitler would do likewise. Everyone, obviously, would talk tough. campaign committee MRS. BOLTON hailed Ohio's 0hw "tvp'ed her. results as a sign that "the tide of national sentiment continues strong-ly toward a Republican sweep next November." Other political news: C.

That secret Dies committee meeting did not consider new investigational plans as an-nounced by Chairman Dies. What actually took place was a fight to fire J. B. ("Doc") Matthews, the committee's "Communism expert" The effort came within one vote of succeeding. Matthews was saved only by the slim margin of 4 to 3. The dismissal motion was made by Rep. John J. Dempsey, silver-haire- d New Mexican, who has long been opposed to Matthews' employ-ment Supporting Dempsey were his two liberal colleagues, Reps. Jos-eph Casey of Massachusetts and Jer-ry Voorhis of California. Voting with Dies, who hired Matthews and has been his chief backer, was the fourth Democrat Joe Starnes of Al-abama, and the two Republican members, Noah Mason of Illinois and J. Parnell Thomas of New Jer-sey. Dempsey's move provoked a heat-ed clash. In demanding Matthews' ouster, Dempsey charged the inves-tigator with bringing the commit-tee into disrepute by his "radical background" and his "passion for grinding personal axes." As an instance of this he cited ' Matthews' report on alleged Red in- - fluence in consumer organizations. This report, issued last December from Dies' home in Orange, Texas, without the knowledge or consent of the full committee, vigorously as- - ' sailed the Consumers Union. "I hold no brief for this organiza- - happens that it is a competitor of Consumers Research, in which Mat-thews has a large financial interest But he didn't mention Consumers Research in his report while he at-tacked Consumers Union and other consumer groups." Dies militantly rushed to the de-fense. "I know Matthews is a former radical," he shouted, "but that doesn't alter the fact that he has been very valuable to us in expos-ing the inner workings of the Com-munist movement" "If that is so," broke in Casey, "then let's keep him in that role. I have no objection to keeping him on our payroll as long as he re-mains in the job we hired him for an informer. But I strongly ob-ject to his acting as the principal investigator of the committee, ask-ing questions of witnesses and is-suing reports he has no authority to put out." Undaunted by the rejection of his dismissal motion, Dempsey offered another to slash Matthews' salary, upped from $3,600 to $6,000 by Dies, to $4,800. But again Matthews was saved by one .vo.te.4 to 3. FRANCES AND HOTTENTOTS He Done Em Wrong. ... John L. (CIO) Lewis gels some information about tome ladies. John L. Lewis got an unexpected kickback from his as- - sertion that Madame Secretary Per- - ' kins knew as much about labor prob-lems "as a Hottentot knows about the moral code." Two weeks after the convention he received a letter from a foreign missionary reading as follows: "Dear Mr. Lewis: I cannot let the insult you hurled at the Hottentots pass unchallenged. I have lived and worked among these people for " many years and have found on the whole that they have a much higher respect for the moral code than peo- - r pie who live in civilized ( nations. "If what you say about Miss Per- - kins is true, then she must be a very I excellent public servant. I commend I her." I ROOSEVELT AND DIPLOMATS The President has discarded all the formal trappings for receiving a new diplomat. He tried the in-formal manner and liked it. This means three principal changes in procedure. He receives in his office instead of in the White House proper; he wears his busi- ness suit, instead of pin striped trou- sers and cutaway coat; and he omit the reading of the official messages". These messages are still prepared and released to the press, but the new diplomat is saved the trouble of reading, and the President is saved the trouble of listening In. cidentally the last message present ed was the longest on record-t- hai of Panama's new Ambassado George Boyd. The President now uses the tim. to better advantage. With no on in the room except himself and th, diplomat, unless an interpreter i required, he carries on an inform and friendly chat on matters th. interest them both.
