It also-means- pemiies saved for the chatelaine of-the households The new thrift pack makes It just that much easier and thriftier to double CHIPITS recipes, too. (It's already second nature to me to double recipes for cookies made with CHIPITS. All of them are such favourites
with my family that a single batch would never even get to the cookie jar.).

DRAMA NOTE: Irwin Shaw, the novelist. Is working on a new book and staying clear of play writing. Shaw has written eight playsi and fotind the opening night jitters too upsetting. Of all his premieres, he said, the rasi-est to take was "Sons and Soldiers." He was in the Army, in Accra, Africa, the night the show opened on Broadway. He was on a rope cot In a tent, next to a whimpering ffionkey. It was the only opening ni^SF^he was able to sleep.
DOMESTIC NOTE: Lillian Rogers Parks, a retired White House maid, has Just written a book, "My 30 Years Backstairs at the White House." She says that one day Eleanor Roosevelt sent a note to FDR's secretary about a large bill awaiting payment; and added: "I know FDR will have a fit". ..The President found the note and wrote on it: "Pay it. Have had the fit. FDR."

AUTHOR LECTURES ON "PATHS TO JEWISH BELIEF"
Dr. Emil Fackenheim, author of widely-acclaimed book titled "Paths to Jewish Belief" will deliver the first of a series of lectures based on his book at Holy Blossom Temple on Thursday evening, February 16, sponsored by the Adult Education group of the Temple.
EXPLANATION: The other night an Israeli visitor discussed Ben-Gurion's resignation as Prime Minister.— for the seventh time. The Israeli was asked; "Does—this mean Ben-Gurion's retirement from. politics?"..r"'Not at all", he replied. "It has the same significance as those Seventh Ave. signs, "Going Out of Business" — a chance for him to unload some stock he coesn't want, hire new men and make a different contract with the union."
SCHOOLING: Dorothy Thompson said that when she was in Sweden to see Sinclair Lewis receive the Nobel Prize, she asked another prize-winner, Dr. Karl Lan'dsteiner, for suggestions about a school to which she should send her son. The doctor told her: "All I can say to you is that a friend of mine, who is the world's greatest mathematician, was a shepherd boy and couldn't read or write till he was 21. So what does It matter?"
PRAISE: Mike Romanoff and his wife took some friends to Henri Soule's Le Pavilion, where they ordered a.chocolate souffle for dessert. He tasted it and grimaced. "I am most annoyed." said Romanoff, "because this l.i far better than I can get at my own restaurant."
WAIT: A British duke received a letter from China, notifying him that chinaware bearinc his family's crest was being shipped to him. The duke quickly replied that he never had ordered nor would he pay for any china. The shipment arrived anyway — enough for 100 settings, each with the family crest set by hand. It all had been paid for. in advance, when the duke's grandmother personally placed the order — 90 years ago.
SPEAKER: George Jessel made a speech in Pittsburgh, celebrating the-Pirates' winning of the World Series and the Democrats winning the Pre.si^ential election. Jessel pointed out: "If a ball handn't hit Tony Kubek in the tliroat, and if Nixon hadn't gone on TV, this would be a wake tonight".... Jessel then referred to Paul Butler, the party's ex-chairman, now being neglected: "In politics they swear you in and cur.se you out".
He listened to Monique Van
Vooren make a public speech, and said: "If that's the way the Belgians communicate, no wonder they fouled up things in the Congo." _ •
INDUSTRIALIST: Pierre Wert-Jieimerj_who owns champion horses and the Chanel Co., Just com missioned a yacht to be built for him in Amsterdam. "At 75," he said, "the only sport a man can enjoy is a cruise through the Greek Islands".... Wertheimer was asked when he plans to introduce a Chanel No. 6 to follow his Chanel No. 5. He replied: "How can you improve the best? When you hear of. Beethoven's 10th, you'll hear of Chanel No." 6."
LICENSE NOTE: Vincent Sardi Jr. thought he'd make the upstairs room at his restaurant more- desirable, after theater, by hiring a pianist. It wasn't quite that simple. The employment of one pianist meant Sardi would need a cabaret license and would have to have 30 employes fingerprinted.
POLITICS: A U.S. Senator who is defeated retains the right to sit with the Senate, roam the cloakrooms, use the restaurant and free barber shop, etc. Ex-Sen. Bill Benton availed himself of this privilege for the first lime at JFK's inaugural, where he joined the Senators on the platform, and shivered along with them. Sen. Mike Monroney lOld him: "1961 is historic. 1961 will be remembered as the year the U.S. Senate caught pneumonia."
The TV tape of the Inaugural Gala is being offered to sponsors tor $300,000. The problem is to persuade a buyer that sponsorship would not denote political partisanship.
Phil Silvers and his ';Do Re Ml" cast applauded the audience last. Saturday night, for having braved the snowstorm to come to the theater....
Ethel Merman has a reservation on a United Airlines jet to Denver every day for a week. Her stand-by at "Gypsy", Jane Romano, has been alerted to take over — as soon at Miss Merman hears that her daughter is ready for the maternity wing at Colorado Springs. United has instructed its staff to make flight space available for the star even if she has to sit with the pilot.

the state, has a right to ask for Western immigration. And I think that it is unwise and Imprudent to think in terms of large-sftale immigration from Western countries. On the other hand, I think it is verj' wrong to minimize and pooh-pooh it.
GROSSMAN: He has a passionate belief and, I aigree with you, I think, he's frot a great deal on his side to say. If it's not to be a little Levantine community, another Lebanon, thl.s state has got to save its Western characteristics. This requires a much, much higher percentage of Immigrants from the West.
GOLDMAN: Let me bring up an organization which disagrees In a quite thoroughgoing -wray. "The American Council of Juda-. ism .states, its purpose as that of "a nationial organization found ed'oft-th6-basic prdpositiori that Judaism is a.religion''. Period. Ju daism Is nothing else—a rellgioh.
"We seek for Americans of Jewish faith their increasing civic, cultural and social Integration into V. S. life." We seek, and here I'm paraphrasing, to end what might be called the "Jewish nationalist" pattern of Zionism. "The Council affirms that nationality and" religion are separate' and distinct,' that nb Jew or grbtip of Jews can speak foF-all American Jews, that Israel is the homelandjof Its,own citizens only and hot of. all Jews."
MES. HALPRIN: First of all, the CorniciLerrs in stating.what the Jewish people Is. The Jewish pepple is a people, has inalntain-ed peoplehobd thrbiigh 2,000 years of dispersion. It's true that that Is a unique phenomenon ishd some people linid it hard to understand, but it Is a fact. It you don't acciept the fact, yoii don't begin to uiidei-stahd what the Jewrlsh.people is. Now that has nothing to do with nationality. The people in Israel are of the nation of Israel in Its own home-la'd, owing -political, allegiance to the nation of which they are a part, and to the government which they elect. But there is a peoplehood, a imlty which we have maintained throughout the ages, a common history, common language, common mores.
GOLDMAN:' They seem to be arguing that not only is the position 61 » person like yourseU
or Dr. Erinz. wrong, but. that It harms the Jews. And in that, I wonder if they don't have some distinguished company. Mr. Cjoss man, in yoiu* bpok, "Palestine Mission," you say: "The conversion of American Jewry to Zionism has, I believe, weakened its position In the States. A commim-ity which has well on the way to assimilation now feels itself more separate from its fellow citizens than ever before and behaves as a national minority group, By asserting the right of the Jews to a Jewish state, the Zionists re-emphasize the racial definition of a Jew which had been the basis of the Nuremburg laws."
CiaOSSMAN: I had quite forgotten writing that passage and my present book In a way modifies It. But- I do well know what I was meaning, when I wrote that and there is a truth in whait. I wrote. It isn't the whole truth but there are factors in the situation which r was truthMly describing.
PRINZ: To come back to that American Ck>uncil for Judaism. They have learned nothing...We have gone through a niftier regime, where Jews were singled
out as Jews, as a people, yathr out being asked to affirm any creed, any Jewish creed. In the American Jewish community, Jews are admitted, actively admitted, into the community without being asked whether or not they believe in this or that. And as for the dependence or interdependence with Israel, the quest-ioii is, Does the Hebrew creativity, the fact that Jews now live as a majority in Israel for the first time, that Jews can create in their own medium, their own linguistic medium, their own spiritual and intellect-aul £ind linguistic context—can that happen in Israel without the Jewries of the world, who after all have the same historic memory, being affected?
The question many people always want to. ask is this: If the Jews in America, for example, with respect to their relationship to . Israel, are something more than a religion, are they in some sense improper American citizens? And, of course,, the quotation that is always used is the one from Ben-Gurion, in which he said Zionists in other countries should have the "cou-.raige to stand up for the. Jewish
state even if "their governments are against it." All Jews, he said, must have "complete solidarity with Israel.''
PRINZ: I think American Jewry and Jews of the world ought to issue once and for all a declaration of indeipendence. They should say we are independent with respect to the state and the govprnment of Israel.
And that should be understood by Zionists and non-Zionists. Therefore, I don't see any source of any dual allegiance there.
MRS. HALPRIN: If, tomorrow, the state of Israel took a position which the Jewish people as a whole considered morally indefensible, we would not stand by the state of Israel in that immoral position.
Since we helped build the state, since the state gave answer to the Jewish problem, a problem of 2,000 year's duration, since that state is the place where we believe the Jewish genius can flourish again, therefore, it is clear that under normal circumstances we will have the strongest . cultural and spiritual tle.'^ and we will want to help, the state. to .gain security, economic stability, etc. '
MATRi PARTY
By RUTHIE
. When I awoke Monday, little did I realize that the peace and calm of the morning would turn into a day of rush and turmoil. .
Of course, every day is one of activity for the average boutie-wife. However she likes nothing better than to be busy with "nothing". The "nothing" in my case was trying to get rid of ten theatre tickets — for free, too!
* *
It must have been about ten-thirty when my sister, Sally, called.
"Look ,kld, help me. out. I'm stuck with a block ot fifty tickets for tomorrow night's show. I'll treat you to ten of them. It's very important to have a turn-out." Sally bless her, is the type who bites more than she - caii~ swallow. She undertook~4he chairmanship of the " annual theatre party _of her organization. The fact that she. had ^assistants was of no concern. She had to "run ^ the show". I couldn't resist teasing her.
"So who told yoCto pledge for two-hundred-and-flfty tickets? Big shot!"
•1 know. Don't rub it in. I'll never assume so much responsibility again."
I heard that before. "Since the tickets are gratis, I'll take them off your hands."
* * •
I didn't know what aWaited me. Immediately 1 called Milly, my closest girl-friend.
"How would you like to go to the theatre tomorrow night? It won't cost anything." I explained the situation. "Oh, I'd love to! Are husbands invited too?"
"Of course! Though I don't know about mine. He's busy tomorrow evening and may not be able to attend."
"Well, mine will go if yours does."
"Fine. I'll let you know."
I proceeded to call another friend. After giving her the preliminaries, she asked,
'May I ask my aunt and uncle? They're celebrating their fortieth wedding anniversarj."
"Of course! It will be a pleasure." Easy come, easy go. I felt magnanimous.
Then I asked a neighbor.
"May 1 ask my sister?"
"Why not? The more, the merrier."
All day long the phone was busy — with "nothing."
Milly called me back.
"Jake won't go if he's the only man."
"You can't do that to me! I'm counting on him to drive us there."
"Well, may I invite my next-door neighbor instead? Though she won't go without her daughter."
"AH right!"
A little later niy friend Becky called.
"I'm sorry, but my aunt and uncle can't go. Some friends of theirs are giving a party in their honor. May I take my daughterin-law and her mother?"
"Yes, only come."
By that time I was thoroughly confused. I couldn't remember whether or not all ten tickets were accounted for.
• • •
It was five in the afternoon. I didn't know what wae what. The only fact definite was: the men weren't going.
I was still "toomUng" on the phone. Finally I called SaUy.
"Do you mean to say," she greeted m^, "you can't give away ten measley tickets?"
"Well," I weakly responded, "if someone doesn't want to go, no amount of giving, cajoling or bribing will help."
CLICK went the phone!
♦ • •
Why I should feel guilty, I don't know. But I did.
Next day, as a final recourse, I called the teachers of my four children. In appreciation for their patience and understanding, I hoped they would accept tickets to an outstanding play.
They obh-ed and ah-ed. Of course!
That was that! Girl-friends, huh! You give them something for nothing and they make you think' they're doing you a favor.
• • •
Not only did I dispose of ten tickets, but the entire area designated to Sally's benefit was completely filled. Did she strut like a peacock!
"See," she smugly, "that's showing them," By '.'them" she meant the TRUE HEARTS SISTERS LANDSMANSCHAFT. Let them not say that they could gather together more people to an affair than the WE LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR VEREIN.
