Morgan in The Christian Science ;Monitor) In telling the Netherland wby they should not expect a redue- tion in the term of compulsory military service, .minister of de- fence, Cornelis , Staf, has called attention to two characteristics of site Netherlands which: make this country •spetially valuable as a member of the Atlantic alM•iance. One of these is the nation'sde- sire to express as an ally that quality which individuals here va- lue so highly: trustworthiness. The second is a stern realism, born of age-old struggles against toes of Dutch freedom. Mr. Staf presented his case against a -.cult in military . service in a letter read 3n Parliament. This was an answer to some political leaders who have been urging a reduction from the pres- ent 18 -month period to 15 months. These demands have become more urgent as Netherlands peo- ple have observed moves by other countries, particularly Great Bri- tain and Belgium, to reduce mili- tary service. NATO Accented There is regret here over what is called the "unilateral" nature of the British' moves to recast de- fence with smaller ground forces. The Dutch are very alliance -mind- ed, placing foremost stress on the Atlantic Community, although eag- er partners also of nations work- ing for European unity through the "common market" and Euratom. But it may be the Belgian rather than the British move that will argue most strongly among Dutch working-class opinion for a cut in the military term. Defence experts here point out that Wb...t Belgium 'has dQue this mater can be no guide fol' the Netherlands.. It may bs pas,a sible for Belgium to fulfil its 0.0x0, mitinents to the. North Atlantic. Treaty by /using • troops n-P.„'kl' assigned to intWor duty in Bel, min.m. But the Ne h land has d argin of such troops Which to draw. The Netherlands already has r= dueed its military service period once, since entering NATO. That was in 1954 when it was cut #rota 20 months to 18 mouths.T4s meant a cut also in strength ta`'&5 per cent in the active land army, Army Reorganized Since then, in consultation with NATO, the Netherlands decidedto reorganize its army, supplanting its bile' An ericanlstyle divi$ion ,of 18,000 men assigned to NATO. With two German -style divisions of 14>- 500 each. To do this,without putting addi- tional burden' on the Dutch econ- omy, the govlernment had further to reduce the strength pf active units to,75 per cent. This is eqn- sidered a minimum for efficient training and as a base of a build up of forces in case of war. Actually, the number of men in- volved will be the samn_as before reorganization. But the value of the Netherlands military contribu- tion *the alliance is said to be considerably increased. The change -over has meant al- so an internal reorganization of the NATO -assigned forces'm order to- cut down the number of non- combatant troops and increase the number of combatants. With 85,000 young, men reaching military age yearly, and no con- siderable increase in this number expected for several years, the HOLIDAY IN NOVA SCOTIA (By Ethel C. Ince, in The Christian Science Monitor) It had seemed quite casual, the way we first turned up in Nova Scotia. Other plans had not work- ed out; someone had an address of a place on Digby Neck which someone else had found delightful. Dates could not be rearranged, and they were swiftly approaching. So it was that we found ourselves one afternoon aboard a boat northbound from New York, destination Yar- mouth, Nova Scotia. The brilliant display of northern lights that suddenly, at the dark- est hour of that night, seemed to envelop the boat, as it plowed its way through a choppy sea, should have presaged that this was to be no ordinary holiday. But we were engrossed in gazing at the sheet of fire unrolling in the sky far above our heads, and the long arms of clear flame that rose and fell uneasily in the midnight darkness. This was, as yet, a"farthest north" for both of us, and the Ice King had posted his heralds to re- mind us that we were entering his realm. The clear, crisp air 'on deck next morning, and the cloud- less cobalt sky above continued the EVAN D.

The Neck is a long, narrow tongue of land run- ning south and westerly, with gen- tle St. Mary's Bay on the east and the magnificent Bay of Fundy? thirty to fifty miles wide,. on the west. Standing on the cliffs after' dinner to watch the western sun we looked across the bay towards the New Brunswick shore. A. small rectangular shadow on the farther side of the bay was etched against the golden circle as it seemed to pause before disappearing over the rim of the horizon. That shadow was the lovely isle of Grand Man- an... The Bay of Fundy dawned on .us gradually. With its deep -brooding atmosphere of mystery and calm —except when slashed by a sudden storm—it set the stage for the activities (seemingly trivial In comparison) of both visitors and natives. The scarcity of navigat- ing craft in the bay, represented chiefly by an occasional small fish- ing boat making a short trip, was a perpetually recurring astonish- ment to anyone accustomed to the busy harbors of Boston, New York, San Francisco, Southampton, or Amsterdam. Such a vast body of water, so strategically placed, was plainly intended to play a notable part in great movements of transportation and commerce in a world continu- ally reaching for new arteries of transport and communication. And what a superb arena it would make for water pageants and the more serious aspects of yachting! But such speculation was idle. Its em- ptiness, one might even say deso- lation, seemed a reproach. The dark, sluggish waters offered ne solution of the mystery. The bay continued to brood on its secret. The high, wooden pier on Sandy Cove beach gave a hint when low tide came. A descendant of some prehistoric monster, it might have been, its firmly driven piles shoot- ing up like powerful legs some thirty feet froepi the wet shingle to support the ' sturdy platform that would have formed the head and body of the creature. How different the picture had been only six hours earlier, when we were taking an after -breakfast walk Wong the cliffs above' it! Then we had looked down upon the restlessly surging waters of the fray, ever increasing in fullness and cashing sullenly as an occasional swell met the rugged line ofro rocks below. The beach was nowhere in sight; at that moment, it formed a portion of the bottom of the bay. For the great incoming tide of Fundy, which addede a depth of twenty-eight feet to the water at this point, had reached its height and was almost about fo turn. The legs of the prehistoric monster were swallowed up by the flood and, on its crest, the platform of the pier looked like a long unwieldy raft that gave an illusion of rock- ing slightly with the restless mo- tion ,of the tide. - Twice every twenty-four hours, every day in the'year, the other- wisepeaceful and undistinguished' little haven underwent this almost phantasmal change. What season- ed mariner would . consider lightly tatting his craft into waters so mercurial and unreliable as these! Anil the scene from the cliffs at. Sandy Coye told only part of the stork,. For the key extends inland more than one hundred miles above that point, and the height. of. the, daily' aides increases as the water; reaches'farther and.fat- ther into the ' narrow upper ex-. trent4�tles. According to• a reliable gaseteer, the tides of Fund, rise, from;fifty to seventy feet and are the 'highest in the world.

Belgium is. aiming to increase voluntary enlistments through offering ,bonuses. Nether- lands experience with voluntary military service offers less hope here that bonuses ,would attract the needed manpower, experts say. The illustration they offer on this point concerns a rather long enlistment period of seven years which was offered;,. to men who would become sergeants, and would leave the service with a cash bonus plus technical education and important educational certificates, and so on. "No Dutchman will serve for any real length of time without prospects of promotion. There must be a continual upward move- ment to keep men in service;" an expert here. told this writer. These considerations are playing a great part in Defence Minister Staf's thinking about the military service period. In some quarters his views will be unpopular. But the Netherlands people are well schooled in conscription needs. They have a tradition of com- pulsory military service dating back to the days of Napoleon, and they are accustomed to associate it with national freedom. There will thus be more understanding here than in some other nations of such figures and reasoning as Mr. Staf has presented for public con- sideration. • valtgaw Service 25% Of Cow Population In Province, N)pst, fAVOYPne kAOWs' how' to ,cook #Fest~,.. vegetah1,I'' But then, wh ,every once ' in a rte, we find someone who seems to..have ''a magical touch, What area their secrets: Zn 'the first place, these cooks y1so turn Dolt better -than usual re- sults have pro.hably learned totfo. great fresh vegetables with more than; average respect.

Hoststo the convention were the Ontario Association of Artificial Breeders, assisted by the Ontario Department of Agriculture, On- tario Agricultural College, Ontario Veterinary College and the Breed Association of Canada. The National Association has a membmership of 94 businesses en= gaged in the work of cattle im- provement through artificial in- semination. Dr. I•i. A. Herman, Columbia, Miss., executive secre- tary, reported that• 99 per cent of all U.S. cattle artificially serviced are now being bred by association members. President of the Ontario Associa- tion is Dr. J. M. McLean, of Belle- ville. Convention committee chair- man is Dr. R. J. McDonald, of Woodstock. Member organizations of the Ontario group serviced about 25 per cent of the province's cow population in 1956, the convention was told. Monday,. guest speaker was Hon. W. A. Goodfellow, minister of ag- riculture for Ontario. He was in- troduced by Dr. C. D. Graham, deputy minister of agriculture. Professor George Raithby, of OAC, Guelph, directed a panel dis- cussion on sire evaluation. Don't Answer It! Let Bell Telephone Answer For You If you sometimes hesitate to leave your home or office because you're afraid of missing a telephone call, the latest electronic device to appear in Ontario can go a long way toward solving your problem. You now can have an automa- ton answer your telephone and take -messages: from the caller when you are absent. Admittedly, a "secretary" made of tubes, re- lays and --wire is not as attractive as the kind that uses lipstick, but it does have trim lines. The equip- ment is encased in a compact con- sole about the size of1 a table radio and harmonizes with most office and home furnishings. One of Ontario's first automatic telephone answering and recording sets has been installed by the Bell Telephone Company at Aurora, in the office of a chartered account- ant. Others are scheduled to go into service elsewhere in Ontario shortly. When ,the telephone rings, the automaton on duty answers, de- livering a pre-recorded message up,to 28 seconds long, inviting the caller to leave a message. The equipment gives the caller up to half -a -minute of message time. -A total of 10 minutes message time can be recorded on any number of calls. A series of double beep tones tells the caller when to start re- cording; and a second pair of beeps tells when the recording period is nearly ended. All •mes- sagesmarerecorded on a revolving drum, and can be erased after the play -back, when no longer req‘uir- eci.: If the user wishes, he may adjust the equipment for answer- ing only, without taking messages.

With 'ttv�ltex0extirt The homemaker wishing to make a name • for her fresh vegetable cookery might first try learning. to serve crisp -tender vegetables. We didn't say "half -cooked", but we mean slightly crispier than the very tender (actually soft) vege- tables that are more common in this country. If you're of the "soft school" now, it may take a little practice to get the crisp -tender texture every timer but the effort will be worth it. You'll know it when you reach this gently crisp texture. The flavor and color will also be improved. Do Americans on. the whole like crisp -tender vegetables? The ex- perience of some of our -largest restaurant chains indicates that they do. Experimentsbrought an overwhelming approval for the better textured vegetables. The difference was noted by the cus- tomers and the result was that the restaurants became known for their fresh vegetable service. Checkpointts While overcooking is a prime danger, there are also several oth- er points to watch. Here is a checklist of cooking tips for fresh vegetables: 1. Cook vegetables in the mini- mum of water needed to prevent scorching. Actual amount will vary with size of pan and amour of vegetables. One-fourth to one inch is usually enough. This low water cookery method retains more of the precious nutrients in the vegetables, as well as produc ing good flavor and texture. , 2. Salt the cooking water an bring to a boil before adding vege tables. After adding vegetables, bring to a boil again as quickly as possible, reduce heat and bo' slowly so steam is not lost. 3. For root vegetables and Um beans, cover pan tightly and le trapped steam do the cooking. 4. For green vegetables, le some of the steam escape by leav ung the lid off the first five min utes of cooking or by raising th lid several times during cooking o by placing the lid on the pan s that a. little steam escapes con tinuously during cooking. Thi helps keep the appealing color o green vegetables, since you ar letting destructive acids esca with the steam. If these acids ar left trapped inside the pan, the break down the chlorophyll, which gives green vegetables their color. The only exception to this rule is spinach, which cooks so fast it can be kept covered during the en- tire cooking period. 5. Members of the -cabbage fam- ily, onions and turnips, should be handled in one of these three ways: (1)Cut •them into small pieces and cook in small amount of water in a covered pan; (2) If they are to be cooked whole, or irr large piec- es, use an uncovered_ pan and a moderate amount of water; (3) Or, if cooking them whole and us- ing a covered pan, leave lid off during . the first half of cooking or raise it three or four times to let gasses escape. These procedures keep the vegetables from develop- ing too strong an odour. 6. In baking, leave vegetables in skins to keep them moist. Rub- bing potatoes with fat prevents • crusting. Open potato skins after baking if they are to sit for more than a moment before serving. This prevents sogginess: 7. Add a little acid—fresh lem- onjuice vinegar—to beets and � or g cabbage to retain red color. A little milk in the cooking water. ,will help keep the whiteness in cauliflower. 8. Don't use baking soda with Teen vegetables. It destroys s 'nut - g Y rients and gives vegetables unna- tural flavor and texture.
