THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Wednesday, Avgust 18, 1954 Church Council Meeting Has Atmosphere Of Big Doings By GEORGE W. CORNELL EVANSTON, Ill. m — A big Christian omnibus, loaded with as- sorted travelers on the Lord’s high- way, is rolling along fairly smooth- ly in this well-groomed university town, But exactly where it’s going, or whether it’ll. get there, nobody pobody knows. Up to now, the Assembly of the World Council of Churches hasn’t produced any pillar-of-fire deci- sions, but it’s doing a lot of talk- ing, and figuring, and it has the atmosphere of big doings. In mammoth McGraw Hall at Northwestern University, where the main meetings are held, it looks like a staff meeting of the universe, with the sages gathered to probe the mysteries. Under the white floodlights, they sit at long tables in the great arena, fingering the dials of their earphones, tapping with pencils, occasionally scribbling a note. Signs — reading Ethiopia, Mex- ico, Iran and a host of other lands — tell where the 600 voting dele- gates came from. Behind them, in rows of chairs, sit 900 other nonvoting church representatives in packed rows of chairs. And behind that, in the always- full bleachers, are some 4,000 on- lookers. At the front hangs a great blue- and-white banner as high as a building, with the symbol of the world body — a ship with a cross as its mast. On one side of the stage, in glass- enclosed booths, is the battery of translators, who relay the words of the meeting over the earphones in the varied tongues of these varied Christians. There is a similar scene, al- though on not so large a scale, couple of miles away in Chan Au- ditorium, where visitors meet to hear famed churchmen speak. Betwéen these two centers of contemplation flows a two-way stream of 20 chartered buses. The Tide is free. Scores of other buildings on the Northwestern University campus— dormitories, sorority houses, ad- ministration buildings, have turned into part of this temporary head- quarters of the council. There are tmimeograph shops, conference rooms, exhibition halls, press rooms and a special 40-line telephone board set up to serve the complex operation of the meeting. It is being covered by some 600 news and religious press reporters, a number second only to that which covered the 1952 Republican convention. Western Union reports they’re sending out more than 100,000 words a day. It all costs money — a cash out- lay of $385,000 which was provided by individuals, foundations and members of the council. Baruch Proves Apt Navigator BROOKVILLE, .N.Y. # — Ber- nard M. Baruch, who will be 4 tomorrow, proved to be a sharp- eyed navigator yesterday during his first helicopter ride. The financier and elder states- man flew from LaGuardia Airport to the Long Island estate of Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt or a party opening a hospital benefit drive by the Long Island Industry Fund. The pilot had trouble spotting the Vanderbilt estate, however, and circled the area. ‘Then Baruch recognized his own home below and guided the pilot to the Vanderbilt house five miles away, Sourdough Sees Civilization After 55 Pears VANCOUVER, B. C. #—Fifty- five years ago Harry Lehmon left gaslit London, England, for the Yukon to prospect for gold. He never left the Yukon until this week. So how does modern living look to him? He’s wary of telephones, not oversold on elevators, thinks it must be costly to keep street lights burning, and is very im- pressed with a tiled bath as an improvement on his “old round tir bathtub.” Lehmon, 77, was coaxed aboard an airliner at Dawson City, Y.

Trevor. “Monroe County’s contribution to this whopping report was $48,087, and brings the county’s total for the first 7 months of 1954 to $456,- 629,” Trevor said, “and produced sales volume 54.5 per cent ahead of July 1953 and 17.4 per cent bet- ter than the same seven months last year.” “The H Bond Sales figure of $2,240,500 also set a new record for a month’s sale of this issue, since this new Savings Bond was first announced on June 1, 1982” Tre- vor said. Z “Monroe County purehasers of this new current ineome bond in July bought $2,000.

Babcock Moves Up In UN UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. # — Brig. Gen. C. Stanton Babcock, 50-year-old veteran of war in the Pacific and diplomacy in the United Nations, moved into the No 3 post of the permanent U.S. dele- | gation to the U.N. today. Chief Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. named Babcock to suc- ceed John C. Ross, member of the Hoover's Son Accepts State Dept. Post WASHINGTON «® — Herbert Hoover Jr. won unanimous confir- mation today as undersecretary of state. His name was brought up shortly after the Senate met and was ap- proved without debate by voice vote. He was quickly approved by the Senate Foreign Relations Commit- tee after the White House an- nouncement last night. Senate ation was expect- ed today. Hoover would succeed Walter Bedell Smith as right-handed man to Secretary of State Dulles. Smith is retiring at 58 from the military- diplomatic career on which he em- barked 43 years ago. “I am very much honored,” Hoover told reporters. But he would say no more pending final Senate action, Hoover, a petroleum engineer, has been an adviser to Dulles for about a year. As a troubleshooter he recently won worldwide atten- tion and praise for his part in settling the three-year-long British- Iranian oil dispute. His appointment caught many off guard. As recently as ast not accept the position. The under secretary’s job in- volves a lot of paperwork, among other things, and associates said Hoover had a typical engineer’s dislike of desk work. Another factor was a basic dis- agreement over tariffs reported between Hoover, on the one hand, and Eisenhower and Dulles. The President and the secrtary have said that tariffs must not be allowed to hamper the flow of im- ports from trade-hungry nations lest those countries be forced to turn to the Soviet bloc to sell ther goods. Hoover was understood to have felt duties should be high enough to reflect the difference be- tween wage rates paid American workers and those paid foreign oes Producing the same ar- es. The tall and quietly affable Hoover was born in London in 1903. He is a 1925 graduate of Stanford and took his master’s de- gree at Harvard in 1928. He has served for years as a special con- sultant to such oil-rich countries as Venezuela and Iran. Smith became a private in the Indiana National Guard. He was then 15. In World War Il, as a general, he served as chief of staff to Eisenhower. He went to the State Department in 1953 after heading the Central Intelligence Agency.

I tried to probe out the reasons for this when he talked in his dress- ing room for ‘‘Young at Heart.” It was one of the rare times when he sat down and concentrated on one subject. But he still was rest- less. He rose to pace the floor as he talked or to have his secretary place a call. “How are your relations with the Hollywood press?” I asked. “All right,” he replied. “They leave me alone. That's the way I like it.” I mentioned that he has had troubles with the press in the past, = “Sure, I’ve had some run-ins.

In Atlanta, Jones said he “re- sents the implication” that a com- pany enjoyed presidential favor because he had stock in it. “Raw Deal” Answered Answering Mitchell’s charges that there is a “raw deal” in the making, Eisenhower told his news conference yesterday every single action he takes involving con- tractual relationships of the United States with anybody—except when the question of national security is involved—is open to the public. The President said any of the newsmen present could go to the Budget Bureau or the AEC and get the complete record of the case.

Questions are welcomed and should be ad- dressed to Sea Secrets, in care of this newspaper. Q.—As a recent bride I find that various types of fish cuts are very confusing. Will you help me on this problem? Mrs. L. K. Dear- field, Coral Gables, Florida. A.—There are not too many dif- ferent cuts of fish, and of these | only a few are used in the stores. When fish is sold in the “round” it is whole, that is, eviscerated, and in all but the very small sizes, the heads, scales, and some- times the fines are removed. Next are “drawn” fish, which are those that are-marketed with only the entrails removed. To prepare these fish, for cooking, the heads, scales, and (if desired) the fins are removed, and the fish may be split or cut into serving portions if too large to be cooked whole. “Dressed” fish have had the head and entrails removed and the tail and fins may be cut off. If dress- ed fish are large, they may be cut into pieces in preparation for cooking. Very large dressed fish SEA SECRETS are sometimes marketed in pieces. “Steaks” are slices (usually about one-half inch thick) cut across a large dressed fish. ‘‘Fillets,” which we’are most familiar with, are meaty slices cut lengthwise from the sides of the fish. Fillets contain no bones or other waste. Their weight varies with the size of the fish from which they are cut. This cut requires little or no preparation for cooking except to be rolled in a mixture such as cornmeal and cracker crumbs: if fried. If a fillet is broiled it should be covered with little bits of but- ter and sprinkled with lemon juice. Q.—Are sawfish and swordfish related? A.—No, they are decidely dif- ferent fish. The sawfish, Pristis pectinatus, is actually a member of the Order Batoidei, to which the rays and skates also belong, although the sawfish is very sharklike in appearance. The swordfish, Xiphias gladius, is a member of the Order Acanthopteri, the spiny - rayed fishes. Other members of this group are the mackerels, mullet, spearfish, mar- lin, sailfish, and many others.
