Th0 Iron C.rtain
WINSTON CI'iURCHiL well-
coined phrase "the iron cur- EconomicoFEoster

that some people really believe the Dinner Possible With

Actually, however, the curtain is eosono[ Vegetables

This writer visited the southern-' for big meals that require a

ieng tangled barricade zigzagging

Czectmslovakia, Germany and Po-
land. And though the fields of win-
ter barley are just as green on both
sides of this barbed-wire barricade.
it might just as well have been
mad of iron as far as free ex-
char, ge of human intercourse is con-
cerned.
I drove up to the curtain in a jeep
with Captain Feths Seckin and Lieu-
te.qant All Aksoz of the Turkish
ary. The latter is in command of
a ten-man detachment guarding the
Kaprikule outpost. The road leading
to tke curtain was paved with
centuries-old stone and beside, the
road were Roman wells built by
Emperor Adrian. But the traffic
leading to the barbed-wire curtain,
aside from an ox team pulling a
John Deere disc drill, a tribute to
the Marshall plan, was nil.
Suddenly the road ended. Ahead
was an iron gate bearing that in-
ternational English word known to
every tongue: "Stop." Beyond it
was another gate slightly rusty and
delapidated bearing ".he wolds "Bul-
garia" in both French and Cyrillic.
This was the iron curtain and the
place which Turks call Serhad,
Which significantly has two mean-
ings: the frontier and the neckline

Blockhouses Guard 0urfain
AlongMde the gate was a series of
blockhouses--one on the Bulgaria
side, a little shabby with some of
its windowpanes missing, and two
on the Turkish side, both nw and
orderly. One Turkish blockhouse--
set back from the iron gate but
connected with it by a series of
trenches--housed troops.
I climbed stairs inside the thick-
Walled parapet to the tower on top
f which a Turkish soldier stood
scanning the landscape through
field glasses. Through his glasses
we could see a Bulgarian guard in
the tower on the opposite side of
the iron curtain, scrutinizing us

Vegetables for the meal and the

require no preparation except the
serving.
*Lamb Shoulder Roast
Before roasting shoulder of lamb,
be sure to note its weight in order
to determine the proper cooking
time. Low cooking temperature is
important for best results. For
roasting, wipe meat with a damp
cloth, sprinkle with salt and pepper
and place on a rack in an open
pan. Insert a meat thermometer in-
to a part of the roast which is free
from fat and gristle. Roast in a low
oven (325 ° ) for 35 minutes per
pound or until meat thermometer
registers an internal temperature of
182%
If you like a hint of garlic flavor-
ing in the lamb roast, do this: Grate
a clove of garlic and rfiix with 2
"ablespoons olive oil or melted but-
ter. Before roasting, cover the top
f the lamb with this mixture, using
a pastry brush.
HERE'S A TASTY way to use the

On rare occasions an official with

System Locked
When a man works hard all day,
he has to get a good night's sleep
in order to keep going. Take Mr.
Tony Wesalick of 1010 Tabor St.,
Houston, Texas, for example. Up
until a few months ago Mr. Wesa-
lick just could-
n't sleep, h a d
no appetite, and
w a s bothered
with indiges-
tion. Then he
heard about
HADACOL a n d
started taking it.
A painter by
profession, Mr.
Wesalick s a y
that now he gets
up in the morn-
ing feeling so rested, and so full
of energy that he's almost never
tired any more. He eats everything
he wants without being troubled
with indigestio,, and has a won-
derful appetite since HADACOL
helped overcome his deficiencies
of Vitamins B], B 2, Niacin and
Iron.
Here is Mr. Wesalick's o w n
statement: "I was run-down and
I would get up in the morning feel-
ing as if I hadn't slept at all. M.
appetite was bad, and I just dido t
feel like eating, and when I did
eat I had terribl2 indigestion.
After a bottle and a half of HADA-
COL I felt much better. I have
now taken about five more bottles
of HADACOL and can eat and en-
joy everything I w a at. I sleep
much better and feel more rested.
HADACOL has done this for me."
