Biaggi blamed the omission of other ethnic groups on "insensitivity, or abject ignorance or blatant discrimination." He noted that no American Indians and no French, who donated the statue, were among the recipients. The congressman said he would introduce a resolution in Congress calling on the 21-member search committee to expand its membership and meet again. Richard Grace, secretary of the Coalition of Italo-American Associations, said a coalition of ethnic groups would picket the foundation's! office next Thursday and if nec- essary hold a demonstration opposite the statue in New York Harbor. Wolper said a second medal in-, tended to honor prominent members of ethnic groups is planned for the fall when ceremonies will be held at a refurbished Ellis Island.

groups on the steps of City Hall. "We are going to have the greatest outpouring of ethnic pride in America and it's going to take place in the city of New York and then to have the committee in charge of the Statue of Liberty celebrations create disharmony is idiotic," Koch said. "I'm stunned," Wolper said several times. "The medal was not given out as an ethnic medal. It was never meant to be an ethnic thing." He said the medal was intended to honor 12 naturalized American citizens who made a substantial contribution to the United States.

"Is an Indian a naturalized American citizen?" Wolper asked. "That just tells you how crazy this is." The mayor suggested the number of people receiving medals be expanded to 50 or 75. ward Koch, whose city has as many nationalities as the United Nations has countries, said Friday it is "idiotic" to honor only 12 ethnic groups at the Statue of Liberty centennial. Koch, Rep. Mario Biaggi, and representatives of Irish, Hungarian, Greek, Polish and other ethnic groups assailed the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation's selection of only 12 foreign born Americans to receive Medal of Liberty awards on the Fourth of July.

The selections were made by a committee chaired by movie producer David Wolper. They will be honored during ceremonies for the Statue of Liberty's 100th birthday party.

Now members of her party are questioning whether her style may cost them votes and the next election. Feeling the sting of defeat, her own Conservative Party is looking inward following its battering in last week's elections.

The first manifestation of a division in the ruling party came Sunday, when House of Commons leader John Biffen said there should be a "balanced ticket" to offset Thatcher's liabilities in the next general election, which must be held by June 1988. Scottish Secretary Malcolm Rif-kind joined Biffen in challenging Thatcher's preference for big tax cuts and called instead for more spending on public services. The Conservatives suffered staggering losses in last Thursday's regional and municipal elections. In addition, they lost one Parliament seat in what had been a staunchly Conservative area and held onto another seat by just 100 votes out of nearly 40,000 cast. Thatcher's policies, especially her economic policy and the nation's 13.6 percent unemployment rate, were believed to be the chief factors in voters' minds.

Thatcher's popularity also plummeted following her decision to allow use of British bases in the U.S. air attack on Libya April 15. Reg.

Later, when I washed the mirror, I couldn't get the streaks out. Any suggestions? Blanche Heiner, San Francisco, Ca.

A glass dealer tells me only water or water diluted with white vinegar should be used on mirrors. Try viengar, diluted half and half at first, then it that doesn't do the job, full strength. Good luck. Dear Vi: Skillets are a mess to clean when the cheese from a cheeseburger melts and burns on. We fry the patties, turn off the heat, sprinkle on steak sauce and ketchup, then shredded cheese.

Cover and let stand until cheese melts. Anne Harrison. Which reminds me, a covered container of shredded cheese in the freezer compartment is a must at our house. In fact, I shred several pounds at once. So handy for casseroles, toasted cheese sandwiches anything calling for a cheese topping.

And the cheese goes much farther. Static electricity in carpets gets worse in dry weather. Boil water, lyse a humidifier, or simply keep a container of water in the room to moisten the air.

Box 122, St. George, Utah, 84770 Cheese Slices I 1 nffra I Dear Vi: I learned at a sewing class that if you run the sewing machine onto a scrap of cloth as you complete each seam, you'll save time as well as money: time because (a) you almost never have to re-thread the needle and (b) guiding the pressure foot onto the next seam is easier; money because this saves (a) wear on the machine and (b) approximately one spool of thread out of five. When sewing small pieces such as quilt blocks, sew from one tiem onto the next. Otherwise, keep several scraps of cloth nearby to sew onto.

Close a used zipper, spray it with starch, smooth it out, let it dry on a flat surface and you'll be able to sew it into the garment as easily as a new one. Lavonna Evanston.
