To our chagrin, we find thai lack of space necessitated the omission of what we consider the finishing touch to Hungarian Veal Stew. Having mentioned CUCUMBER SALAD we feel it necessary to divulge the secret of its tart goodness, remembering the guessing games we used to play with it ourselves. Several hours before dinner, peek two cucumbers, slice very thin and salt well. Salting makes cucumbers easily digestible. After 3 hours, drain and press the salty liquid out of the cucumbers. Make a combination of 1 cup éach vinegar and water and 2 or 3 tablespoons of sugar (taste to get*1 desired effect), add to cucumbers and sprinkle with black pepper and sweet paprika before serving. If you feel festive, sweet or. sour cream is a wonderful taste thrill with cucumbers. After pressing the cucumbers out of the salt liquid, whip a half pint of sweet cream and fold in the cucumbers. The sour cream need not be whipped. Of course, the dusting with paprika is not to be forgotten in either case. Another thing which has always intrigued us is the combinations possible with a thin pancake or fritter batter for which there is no exact comparison in American cookery. The possibilities include the mainstay of the meal or the dessert. Of course We are speaking of PALACSINTA To 4A oz. flour (1 cup plus 2 tbs.) add 2 beaten eggs, 1 tbs. melted butter, a pinch of salt and sugar. Mix well, add enough milk to make a very thin, smooth batter. A small, or 2 oz., ladle of batter is sufficient as this spreads over the griddle into practically the size of a diner plate. Bake on a greased griddle, turning once. At first, flipping them will turn into a juggling game but practice makes perfect and you don’t pick so many off the ceiling. The variety offered by fillings to make dinner pancakes depends on the ingenuity of the cook and almost any leftover meat or fowl can be used. LEFTOVER CHICKEN PAPRIKAS can be utilized by removing the meat from the bones, put a spoonful on each pancake and roll. Pour a small amount of chicken gravy on pancakes, serving additional gravy if desired. Several such pancakes léaves little room although a corn chowder, fried tomatoes and ice cream makes up a nice menu. LEFTOVER VEAL STEW is ground or chopped, mixed with *a little sweet cream or top milk. After filling pancakes, arrange in a greased casserole, adding more cream and covering with an odd pancake. Bake about 20 minutes in a moderate oven. Before serving, remove the pancake “cover”. This may also be made in a layer; that is, a pancake, stew, pancake, etc. For dessert pancakes, your imagination may have free rein. We have heard of a variety of delicious fillings. We" suggest several and perhaps you may concoct something very tasty which can be passed on to the interested readers. Our first is COTTAGE CHEESE FILLING Press 2 cups (1 pint) dry cottage cheese through a sieve, add 2 egg yolks, a little powdered sugar with either vanilla or lemon-orange rind for flavor, a half-pint sweet cream and 2 beaten egg-whites. Build layers of palacsinta and cottage cheese mixture in a casserole, sprinkle with a little cream, and Ifeat well. Yummy! NUT MERINGUE FILLING Grind English walnuts, add a Journal “Forgiven” According to a cable from Tivadar Ach, vice-president of (the Hungarian World Federation, to Supreme Secretary Coloman Révész, received here on May 22nd, László Rajk, Minister of the Interior of the Hungarian Republic, upon intervention by Mr. Ach, has consented to revoke the edict prohibiting the entry of the Verhovay Journal in Hungary. This cable was preceded by a letted in which Mr. Ach informed Mr. Revesz of his intention to request a withdrawal of the edict from the Minister of the Interior. Naturally, the interest of vicepresident Ach in this matter is sincerely appreciated, though it should be stated for the record that we have neither registered protest against the banishing edict nor invited intervention for its annulment. As stated in the April 30th issue of the Journal, we have never requested permission to enter Hungary, for the Journal is edited for the membership of the Verhovay with the aim of promoting the ideals of fraternalism' in general and the purposes of our Association in particular. Consequently, the attitude of the Hungarian, nor any other -/foreign, government cannot effect in any way the editorial policies of the Verhovay little powdered or granulated sugar to sweeten and enough warm milk to make a thick paste. Spread on palacsintás and roll, arranging in a casserole. Ten minutes before serving, spread with a meringue to which a little peach jam has been added and put in a hot oven to brown. Apricot or raspberry lends itself very well to palacsinta and probably any number of sweetened fillings will make a successful dessert. There are limitless possibilities and the praises will simply flow your way, dear cookie! On these toothsome bite, we close. But our search goes on — two Old World gourmets made our mouths water with talk of what Mother used to make. Fraternally, Midge.

Journal which always were and fbrever will be consistent with the principles of constitutional American democracy to which we are bound by oath as well as gratitude. That the Verhovay Journal has been granted, without request on our part, permission to enter Hungary is gratifying mainly because it is to the advantage of the Hungarian people. A sad inflection is cast upon conditions prevailing in Hungary hy acts indicating the suppression of the freedom of the press and free speech, while a liberal application of the principles of human I liberties will go a long way toward re-establishing America’s ; confidence in the present leaders j of the Hungarian nation. The world has been ruined by dictators ruling by edicts and what is left can be salvaged only if the democratic system of government by the majority is made to prevail. Naturally, we as Americans of Hungarian descent, are interested in the land of our fathers. By our contributions to the victory of democracies we have purchased the right to hope that the Hungarian people, too, will be given an opportunity to develop their national existence in accordance with the principles of democratic liberty. And, as is consistent with democratic thinking, our hope is not in opposition to the true desire of the overwhelming majority of the Hungarian people, for they, too, pray and hope for the very same thing that we wish for them. In fact,1 the present leaders of the Hungarian people are quite eloquent in their proj fessions and promises to the same effect. Hence, our reports on I Hungary’s affairs, occasionally appearing in the Journal, cannot be interpreted as manifestations of hostility towards the Hungarian government and its aims. Our willingness to render unlimited assistance to the unfortunate Hungarian people ought tc convince their government authorities of our good faith. Naturally, the favorable decision oi the Minister of the Interior of Hungary improves our chances oi effectively assisting the Hungar ian people in these times of un describable destitution. After all it is quite diffeiult to convinci our readers of the necessity anc advisability of making generous contributions toward this cause when the recipients prefer charges of subversive intentions agains the Association and its Journal While we are gratified by the present change of attitude or part of the Hungarian Minister of Interior, we cannot help re membering the gracious manner in which Mine. Tildy, Hungary’s First Lady, attempted to con vince the people of America os the good faith of Hungary’s leaders and the people. Even Mr Rajk must realize that a fair anc frank presentation of the facts is much more effective and convinc ing than any display of authorit; by edicts and prohibitions. “What happened when you ask ed your boss for the raise ” ask ed Wifey excitedly. “Why, he was like a lamb.” “What tdid he say?” “Baa!” “I’d like to rent a horse.” “How long?” “The longest you’ve got — there’ll be five of us.”
