THIS WEEK ? In Washington With Clinton Davidson Top government farm officials | from five Free World nations met ] recently in Washington for two ('ays. then left with no more than a brief note in the press that they j liad been there. Those who know what was dis cussed think Kiat wh^t they began here could very well have a greater bearing on the future peace of the wor'.J ti'.an anything to be accom published at the Summit Conference ' in Geneva. A start was made toward use of the tremendous Free World reserve of food to counter Russian propa ganda among the uncommitted na tions of th,e -work!. The countries , participating in the meeting were the U. S., France, Canada, Aus- j tralia and Argentina. The conference was the first step in the "foo<; for peace" proposal advanced early this year by Presi dent Eisenhower in a special mes sage to Congress. Officials de scribed it as "largely exploratory." Bread on the Waters Agreement was reached, tenta tively. on a program f:>r sharing ti e surpluses of wheat held by the five nations with the more than half a billion people in the world wha g'J to bed hungry every night. The five agriculura* ministers took home. for approval of their governments, proposals that could make available almost immediately some two billion bushels of wheat for distribut on to nations in short supply of food. It was agreed to encourage un cle tdovelcped nations to set up their own national f4icd reserves, using wheat received from the five ex porting nations. Following the example already set by the I'. S.. the four other countries w:'l consider making W'heat available anywhere in the Free World in exchange for the currency of the receiving nation. 1 wo Purposes The food surplus producing na tions have two primary objectives in undertaking a tnod for peace program. They want to combat communism in the nations w Here hunger makes it easy for the Reds to sprend (heir propaganda. Too, they want to turn food sur pluses from a financial burden Into an asset for peace, aad aa the pre liminary to long-time customers for our farms and factories. Four of the five nations repre sented at the meeting have the ablMty to greatly expand their food production. France la thp excep tion. Although wheat currently Is in the grea Lest surplus, many other foods also are available. The eventual goal of the food for peace program is to keep farmers] in the Free World fully and prof itably employed while, at the same j time-, making food available to peoples of the underdeveloped na tion? under long-term agreements. ' The reasoning is that communism cannot flourish in nations that are wel! fed and ciothed. This Is a long range goal whose success or failure cculd mean the difference between war and peace without fear of hun ger. College Hints ? By RUTH CURRENT Arsistant Director, Home Economics N. C.

The World's Only True Wild Horse ' Going The Way Of The Whooping Grain Tb.? only true wild horse ? the Mongolian or Piwalski - i* go mg the way of the w hooping crane. Zoologist* believe that the SO or a? animal* in too* around the world dew outnumber tbo*e roaming the old central-Asian homeland. It is eten suspected that small herds in the wlldernesa may have interbred with domestic horses and no longer exist in pure form. To save the species from extinc tion, the director of the Zoological Gardens at Prague, Czechoslova kia, has recently circulated ques tionnaire* to all known owners of Prxewalskies. asking for detailed records on tljeir history and chara cteristics. The data will provide pedigrees that will be helpful in breeding. The Przewalski Wild horse was named for a Russian explorer who came on the animals while travel ing in Mongila and northern Tibet during the WO'*, says the National Geographic Society. Colonel Nicholas M. Prxewalski also spelled Prejevalsky) was a ctarist army officer whose ardent interest In natural history had led blm to apply for posts in eastern Siberia. In 1870 he obtained permission to conduct an expedition across inner Asia for the Russian Geographical Society. Among tlje thousands of specimens of mammals, birds, rep tiles, and fishes he collected were the skull and akin of a strange, small horse. In an adventure-filled book pub lished in 1876, Colonel Przewakki reported large herds of the horses running wild on the plains of Tsal dam and beyond In western Mon golia. They were quite sl\y, he said, and when frightened would continue a flight for days. A little vinegar and sugar heated together makes a good dressing for knap beans or cabbage, with or without a few tablespoons of cream. VEGETABLES IN SAUCE ? For a flavor change, serve boiled vege tables in a sauce. Combine hot vegetables and hot saoae. lightly just | before serving, allowing about 1 cup i of sauce for 4 servings of vegeta ble. For full vegetable flavor, use the vegetable cooking liquid in the { sauce. Mock Hollandaise Sauce: Make medium white sauce. Beat 2 egg yolks; stir about Vi cup of Hie hot sauce into them and pour back into the rest of the sauce. Add 2 table spoons butter or margarine and Mongol tribesmen told Che ex plorer that although they hunted wild camels of northwest Tsaidam icr their delicate flesh, the horses were too swift and alert for the chase. The Przewalsgl Wild Horse U much smaller than the domestic animal. It ts generally yellowish or light reddish-brown in color, with a distinctive dark streak along it* ' back. Its head is large, the muz- 1 ?'e prominent. Its tail is long and flowing, and its short mane is as stiff as a clothes brush. A closely related wild horse, now cxtinct. was the Tarpan. So called from its Ttarary roving grounds, this Creature had a drab-gray col or and less noticeable streak. Both horses carried on a remark ably organized way of life. The herds, numbering from several hundred to perhaps a thousand, were set up like armies. At the ^ea Gt 3Q Can Pay Only & ?n?. J/C C risco j Vegetable 3-Lb.
