Carter administration and again demanded recognition of the Palestinians’ right to their own state, in effect killing chances for a change in U S policy feared by Israel ., #.At a weekend policy meeting in this Syrian capital the 57 member Palestine ( entrai Council decided that U S feelers toward the PLO were a ploy to divide moderates from radicals in the eight groups under the PLO umbrella The council, the PLO s political assembly, decided unanimously to reject any dialogue with the United States * as long as Washington refuses to recognize the PU) and the legitimate rights of our people” to an independent state.PLO spokesman Yasser Abd Rabbo told reporters after the council meeting broke up Sunday morning Most of the speakers last night were unanimous that what s being said

I^ast week.Premier Rene Levesque postponed the byelections, scheduled for Sept 24, until November after Quebec’s chief electoral officer informed him they could not be held during the Sept 17 to Nov 11 enu meration period Leger said Levesque could have called the byelections for the week of Sept 10, but that would have required new voters to register on existing voters lists before Aug 30, when many would lie on vacation He estimated this could have resulted in up to 6.000 voters missing the chance to cast a ballot in Maisonneuve.HeauceSud and Prévost ridings Leger, who is also chief party organizer for the byelections, denied speculation that the government delayed the vote be cause it feared it would lose two of the ridings and wanted more time to organize As far as organization is

the U.S.can enjoy nearly full em ployment and sharply re duced inflation in the next decade by increasing business investment, im proving the skills of the disadvantaged and cutting American dependence on imported oil The committee, while not calling outright for across the board tax cuts next year, indicated support for such action to offset effects of inflation The committee’s economists, under ad m 111 e d I y pessimistic assumptions that include continued sharp increases in oil prices during the next 10 years, figured that unless inflation is checked, the price of an

My husband, who has bragged for years about his proven ability to survive for days on beans and beer fishing trips, turns away delicately from the thought of munching on “a mouthful of raspberry seeds! ” These boys must have nonchewing jellies.Hence, during the recent hot weather while many fortunate women were reclining in long chairs beside swimming pools, I, with a fearful old straw hat tied under my chin, was either sliding in the dirt among the strawberry plants or clawing my way through the inhospitable world of the raspberries Once the berries are gathered, the inside work is less attractive.The fruit must be well rinsed and drained, all crawling nasties and worms of paie green innocence removed I have no worries about maintaining the shape of the berries I simply throw them all into an ancient jelly bag given to me years ago by Patty’s Aunt Kathleen.I tie a knot in its cord, hang it from a knob on the cupboard door and leave the whole sticky mess to drip into a big pot throughout the night In the morning, armed with the Certo booklet.I face the awesome task of urging these juices to the famous “full rolling boil.” Rolling, that is.all over the stove, the floor and the frantic jelly-maker! Finally, the juices are skimmed, captured and confined to jars of various shapes and sizes.They glow at me.ruby-rich with promise If, by a rare stroke ot luck, they should jell this year, what a joy they will be at breakfast on a dark and gloomy winter mom! The picking is the best part of this annual ordeal Four of us usually take off in the fresh hours of a morning to go for our fruit.Once at the advertised site, armed with containers, saturated with bug repellents and sun screening oils, we get to work There is an undefinable air of merriment and festivity about a berry patch We are at once a part of a gregarious and jovial crowd Language is the least of our concerns We keep up a steady stream of chatter.half-French, half-English We point with stained fingers to direct newcomers to a particularly rewarding spot We thumbs down and head shake to divert others from a less productive area We have a mutual concern, one for the other Such is our esprit de corps that even dripping with honest sweat, thirsty, bug-bitten and scratched unmercifully.we still teei jovial, reaay to laugh at the spill of a bucket! We find instant friendship here and a truly intelligible means of communication I call it berry-patch lingo and I regret that it sometimes fails to carry over into life beyond the picking grounds We tend to forget how eloquent, how meaningful it was In the light of all the fun and pleasant experiences I have had in the past few weeks, I dare venture a warning to our PQ government - Try it in the atie* if you will, try it in towns, ëven villages, but never attempt to separate us in the berry fields!

says there was no change in his premium charge The police tried to serve a summons in mid-1976 but Pamplin said the car was in his son’s name The son then was aged three “I took the policeman up to

youngest child, celebrates his 10th birthday, Pamplin said: “I have ordered some more children after that.” “Anyway, it does not have to be your own children It can be the children of friends.” Pamplin s interest in such legalities was piqued when a friend had a car stolen and it was later found in a noparking zone in Liverpool “But as he was the legally named ow ner of the car.even though he obviously wasn't driving, he finally had to pay up the 6 pounds parking fine.’’ “I became intrigued and my solicitor took counsel’s opinion which was that only two classes of people were immune —

another woman involved.which is always painful, but this was par ticularly difficult since the other woman was my brother's wife I loved her and trusted her like a sister When the story came out about how they had been meeting in motels (and in the home of a mutual friend) I was stunned My brother went into a state of shock Shortly after I filed for divorce, my brother also filed It was very traumatic because there are children involved Of course, our agonies provided delicious gossip for the whole town After six months I thought I would be well over my misery but I’m still fighting depression and feeling sorry for myself My brother isn’t doing much better I’ve had counseling which helped some and my brother has talked to his priest.(He turned Catholic to marry ) We would appreciate it if you could suggest something we might read to help us see our problem in a healthier perspective We both seem unable to get on with the business of living Thank you.— Faithful Readers Dear Readers: I’m going to recommend “Living With Divorce” by Kathleen Sheridan This is a splendid, supportive and simply-written book that explores the feelings of divorced people in a way that will

relatives have raised a question that has never occurred to us It is less expensive if we get one room with two large beds instead of two rooms, and this is what we’ve been doing The guys sleep in their shorts and we wear appropriate nightgowns We take turns using the bathroom and undress there We think it’s an OK arrangement but, like I said, we’ve been getting some uncouth remarks from certain people What do you say?— Just Wonderin' Dear Wonderin': So am I about several things For example Vacations are ideal opportunities for married couples to catch up on lovemaking that often is neglected because of the stresses of routine living With two couples sharing a room — well, need I say more0 It seems to me the privacy of separate quarters, plus the convenience of two bathrooms, would be well worth the extra few dollars Dear Ann Landers: I have two unrelated questions l would like to have you an swer Although I realize you don’t know everything, you seem to know someone in nearly every field who does (1) Where did the custom of addressing all correspondents "dear” come from9 Some people we address as "dear” are strangers (2) Why is the main course of a meal called the “en tree”9 It sounds like the first course or the “appetizer " Thank you — Wilberton.Okl ».Dear W il: I do not know the answers to either of the questions you raise I wonder how many of my readers do Let’s hear from you out there Now's your chance to sit in my chair and play Ann Landers Dear Ann Landers: I applaud the confidential answer to “Full of Doubts ” I think it spoke for many of us (I believe vou said.“Some people who are institutionalized are more rational than many individuals who are walking the streets “) I’d like to share my view of counseling and the “sanity” of some of us who've experienced it It’s hard for me to believe the inability of people to speak to a trained, qualified therapist in order to help themselves sort out their lives It’s also hard to realize that some people think if you have had or are having counseling, you are either weak or a little cuckoo I first went for counseling eight years ago because I was very unhappy and I didn't believe my life had to be that way » My goal is not a bed of roses but I would like fewer peaks and valleys more steadiness and self-confidence ) I believe I’m a great deal healthier than some of my relatives and

materials.SHIRLEY DEAR SHIRLEY — Different fabrics may react differently so test separately.If clothes are washable rub detergent into stains and wash.Next sponge old stains with white vinegar and new ones with ammonia.Rinse and launder in as hot water as fabric permits.If there is a lingering odor, sponge with a COLORLESS mouthwash.— POLLY DEAR POLLY I have a nifty way to skim the leaves, grass, etc.from the surface of our children’s small swimming pool.I cut the legs off an old pair of pantyhose and draped the top over a metal coat hanger.A knot was tied on each side where the legs were cut off and at the top of the hanger.The curve is used as a handle.This gadget really does the job SHARON DEAR POLLY — So as to have a neater sewing kit I saved empty thread spools and wound my embroidery floss on them A small piece of material was poked into the hole of a spool to make a handy pin cushion for needles.— PHYLLIS DEAR POLLY There may be others such as me who like to broil but hate the mess it makes in the bottom of the pan.I put a small amount of water in the pan and find it is easier to clean.The juices that drop in the water as the meat cooks make a nice stock to pour over our dog’s dry food.We like the packaged macaroni and cheese but find it makes too much for one meal.The leftover is saved.When it’s wanted I put some non-stick spray in a frying pan, add a little milk and then the macaroni.I cover the pan and heat until the milk becomes a smooth sauce.This is almost better than it was the first time.The same can be done with scalloped potatoes ANITA DEAR POLLY We save all our wax milk cartons and stuff them with shredded newspaper, leaving some strips hanging out the open end These make excellent starters for our fireplace or charcoal grill (Another gas saver) — MRS S C S DEAR POLLY Someone told me that baby bonnets could be washed in gentle soap solution and then stuffed with tissue paper to keep their shape while drying I found this works perfectly DOROTHY

cause me to lose my mind altogether and become completely confused later on9 I’m 77 and know these conditions are common with older folks DEAR READER - First, about eyes.Vision depends on more than the lens in the eye Cataracts involve the developing of an opacity in the lens of the eye itself When the opacity becomes sufficient to obstruct light rays entering the eyes, it can cause blindness When a cataract is mature or causing significant difficulty in seeing, the lens can be removed as it was in your case The problem is you can alsc have changes in the retina at the back of the eye This is the screen where the visual images are projected by the lens The retinal screen can be affected by circulation to the eye and you'll have to depend on vour eye doctor's evaluation of your status If the retina has too many changes in it.then the improvement that you might expect from cataract surgery doesn't occur I am sending you The Health Letter number 13-6 on Cataracts Other readers who want

have anv really good answers for most of these cases In some instances, if you can identify a circulation problem in the arteries of the neck, surgery can be used to improve circulation About the only thing I can offer in that department is to have an evaluation by a neurologist to make certain that you don't have some underlying medical problem that can be corrected If the problem really is the changes in brain cells often seen with age.limited things can be done.There are medicines that help to relieve associated anxiety and depression It's important in such instances to remain active, have goals and try to maintain your interest in life.It also helps to stay in the same surroundings if at all possible Familiar objects and surroundings seem to help reinforce the functions of the brain and enable the person to avoid some confusion Some of these problems are not just something that happens in old age Some may be from diseases that have not been fully defined yet You see them
