tME ftAtLV NEWS RlttAY, JANUAfcV 2S 85HI Senator Says 'Crab Cakes' Are Insult To Home State By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPI) Like others who dine regularly at the Capitol, I have been following the Senate's crab cake controversy with mounting interest and rising gorge. The protagonist in the issue is Sen. J. Glenn Beall, a Maryland Republican and seafood connoisseur, who feels that his home state was libeled by the menu in the Senate restaurant. Specifically, he objected to the christening of one of the dishes listed on the menu as "Maryland crab cakes." Linking Maryland's fair name to the fried blobs that were being fobbed off under a crab cake alias was a slur on the free state and adjacent waters, Beall told, or tolled, the Senate.

Sounds Ringing Protest He voices his protest in a ringing oration that undoubtedly will cause him to be remembered as the crustaceans' Patrick Henry. I thought it ranked in eloquence with Sen. Everett M. Dirksen's famous paean to spring flowers. The Senate chef was offered an "authentic" recipe for Maryland ADDINGTON'S WESTERN STORE Western Clothes Guns Sporting Goods 119 S.

Cuyler MO 4-3161 crab cakes, but he pointed out that it could not be used without upping the price. It calls for the cakes to be composed entirely of crab meat whereas in the dish as presently constituted the crab meat is mixed with cracker crumbs. Crackers are, of course, cheaper than crabs, being more plentiful and easier to catch. I certainly agree with Beall that the Senate crab cakes could stand nn overhauling, but at the same time I have some reservations about the adoption of an "authentic" recipe, Wish For Imitation In the House restaurant, the menu carries an item listed as "genuine chile con carne." One spoonful will make you wish that you had been served the imitation. Be that as it may, Beall's concern for his state's gastronomic reputation started me to speculating what might happen if other statesmen took up the culinary cudgels on behalf of their native lands.

For instance, the Wednesday menu in the House restaurant featured "Swiss steak." The government of Switzerland might wish to lodge a protest about that through its legation here. The same bill of fare listed "French fried potatoes" which I coull easily arouse the animosity Man Drops Plan To Sail Yacht Across Atlantic LISBON (UPI) Tom Miller, of Denison, said yesterday he has given up his plans of trying to sail a 55-foot yacht across (he Atlantic Ocean to the West Indies. Miller decided to abandon his efforts after the departure of three of his crewmen. The three left after a 30-hour fruitless battle against a storm at sea on the yacht. Miller and four other amateur sailors, set out Thursday during a raging storm in an effort to sail the Atlantic.

They returned Friday night battered and tired, but the boat escaped serious damage. The three crewmen, William B. Mize of Sherman, Louis Chandler of Dallas and Charles McLcndon of London, had to give up their sailing efforts and return to their normal jobs, Miller said. of Gen. De Gaulle.

There likewise was a "Spanish omelette" which could incur the wrath of Gen. Franco. Young Sen. Ted Kennedy has said he is interested in doing something for Massachusetts. A golden opportunity is presented by the Senate restaurant's "Boston cream pie." For that matter a "boiled New I England dinner" served this week in the House restaurant would provide an issue for the en' tire Kennedy clan.

The refund of Ronald Leggctt, Jesup, was figured at the automatic data processing center of the Internal Revenue Service here, a pilot plant which will be the forerunner of nine such centers in the nation. i Through the system, which has been in the manufacturing and testing stage since 1959, soon will go all income tax returns. Out of the machinery will come the bitter much you owe or i how much you get back. Accuracy is Object i Aubrey Ross, head of the oper: ation for the IRS, said that ac-l curacy, and not speed, is the i i main object of the new system. With machinery taking over from mere man with his adding machine and sharp pencil, the computer will compare current returns with old ones, spot errors and perform all sorts of other duties necessary to make the final figure come out right.

Ross said it usually takes from 28 to 35 days to process the returns through the computer. Some features of the new sys- i tern: It will determine prior to a refund whether a taxpayer already has claimed and received a refund and whether he owes taxes. Constant Check It will provide a constant check on whether individuals and businesses have failed to file returns, It will help classify returns for audit purposes. In addition, IRS officials hasten to add, the system has some ad- I vantages for the taxpayer himself, such as: It will provide improved enforcement so that the "honest taxpayer" will pay only his fail- share of the tax burden. It will eliminate recurring questions from IRS about items previously accepted for deductions.

It will establish taxpayer credits in accounts of those who have been given deductions but can't be located. i Mrs. Alma Luna, 339 Sunset Dr. Mrs. Ruth Snapp, 2600 Rosewood Mrs.

Pino Casa DUNCAN MO 4-4439 UJ Veterans Warned Income Reports Are Due Jan. 31 Veterans and dependents on the Veterans Administration nonserv- ice-connected pension rolls and parents of deceased veterans receiving dependency and indemnity compensation who do not return their income questionnaires by January 31 will not receive any more checks and may even have to pay back the money received in 1902. Robert W. Sisson, manager of the VA Regional Office in Lub- hock, Texas issued this warning although the questionnaires were mailed a month earlier than usual this year.

The income infotmation forms were sent out by the TV with the November 30 checks but the return deadline remains January 31. Sisson pointed out lhat the questionnaire carries a printed warning which reads: "Important. Failure to return this card before January 31. 1963, will result in discontinuance of payment. You would also be required to pay back all pension you received last year." Since these benefits are paid only to those veterans, widows, dependent parents or minor children whose incomes are below r.criain limits, the VA is required hy IHW to receive an income report each year to support the nts.

Sisson asked that all blanks on the card be filled in wherever applicable and that it be signed before it is sent back to VA.
