WASHINGTON The gov.
eminent admitted today it picked
up the tab for free Caribbean
cruises last year by about 90
members of Congressional parties.
It wasn't ready yet to name
them despite President Eisenhow-
er's assertion Thursday that he
saw no reason not to make public
the passenger lists.
Some of the junketing House and
Senate members, staff aides and
dependents presumably mixed
work with pleasure on the sun-
drenched lo-day tours that they
enjoyed aboard the Panama Line
to Haiti, Panama and back.
An official audit—which didn't
go into the work and play ques-
tion—showed only that the public-
ly-owned Panama Canal Co. pick-
ed up a $22,154 check for Con-
gressional travel aboard the line's
three luxury cruisers in the 12
months ending June 30.
A tempting orange floating island with tufts of chocolate top-
ped meringue is a wonderful family dessert. In fact, this delectable
dish has been among the belles of the pudding family for genera-
tions. Grandmother probably called it a "float" and served it com-
pany-style in a tall glass compote. Even earlier versions were
sweetened with rosevvater to add to their delicate taste.
Today's floating island can be simply made from a package of
pudding mix and a can of evaporated milk, fresh orange juice for
extra flavor, with of course, an egg white for tile meringue's sake.
The evaporated milk gives the soft custard an incomparable
creamy smoothness and is an ideal way to get additional milk into '
the children's diet. Used in its undiluted form, evaporated milk has
just twice the nutritive value of fresh milk.
Orange Floating Island Dessert
1 tall can (Ira cups) 2 egg whites
evaporated milk Vi teaspoon salt
1^3 cups water % cup sugar
1 package vanilla pudding mix Shaved chocolate
1 cup orange juice
Add evaporated rrilk and water to pudding mix in saucepan.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until pudding thickens
and starts to boil. Cool. Stir in orange juice; pour into serving dish
and chill. Add salt to egg whites and beat until stiff, but not dry.
Gradually add sugar and beat until smooth and glossy. Drop by
spoonfuls into skillet containing % inch of simmering water. Sim-
mer, uncovered, 5 minutes. Drain meringues and place on top of
pudding in serving dish. Garnish with shaved chocolate.
YIELD: 6 servings.
Rodin' Tobacco
Makes Friends
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON <l'.i:i—We were
sitting there chatting -lbout blue-
eyed lassies and male songbirds
from old Ireland, when Ted Mack
said:
'Do you have a cigaret. Nick?"
I hauled out a sack of rollin' 'to-
bacco, which 1 hoard for emergen-
cies, and giggled inside. Ted, the
'head man tif the Original Amateur
Hour on TV, opened the bag, and
while rocking rolled a "Mack-
made" cigaret that looked like
something tailor made, closed the
strings with his teeth professional-
like, and pocketed my makin's.
Hold on There
"Wait a tobacco-rollin' minute,"
I protested. "That thai- was a sou-
venir of a day long past. About the
only thing a man can buy for a
nickel any more."
Ted changed the subject and said
"let's look at some of these kids
we found in Ireland. They're going
to be tlie whole show Sunday
night on the amateur show."
The "kids" were, too.
He Draws Compliment
The State Department has com
plimented a job-wel' done in the
business of hands across the sea.
So now Ted is working on future
shows, bringing the best of class
from Israel, Spain, and Mexico—
and so on.
Ted and I didn't have time to
meet and chat with all of the
friends from Ireland. But Ted was
busy working on my tobacco sack.
He asked if I had another.
I didn't have, but 1 gave him a
nickel and told him where he could
buy a bag. We shook hands and
stayed friends.
