LIVERMORE. Calif. — Perfec
tion of a new production process
for American sherries, the first
of its kind ever developed in this
country, was announced at the
Cresta Blanca winery here by
Carl J. Kiefer, vice-president in
charge of plants and production
for Schenley Distillers corpora
te. owners of the plant.
Principa feature of the process,
he said, was the development of
a sherry “bodega,” or warehouse
for uniform maturing of high
qaulity sherries. This has permit
ted adoption for the first time in
t.he United States of the famous
Spanish “solera” system for ag
ing sherry. Wines from only the
lowest tier are removed for bot
tling. and ony a certain percent- j
age of the wine may be drawn
each year. To replace the with-1
drawal, sherries from the upper
casks are blended with the re
mainder in the ower tier. New!
wines are added at the top, thus
providing a continuity of supply. ^
It was pointed out that prac
ticaly all of the world’s leading
sherries, which have no vintage j
identification, have been produc
ed by the solera system for the
past century.
Mr. Kiefer said the Cresta
Blanca Company had perfected a
“Jerez” type of Spanish sherry
yeast which would permit devel
opment in the near future of sher
ries just as they have been pro- j
duced in Spain. This yeast, he j
said, is alowed to remain on the j
surface of the wine for about |
one year, giving it the bouquet i
and flavor characteristics of Span ;

Washington — Ever since
he flew the Atlantic one
fateful day in 1927 Charles
A. Lindbergh has been
looking for privacy and soli
tude. For years he has
complained about the
crowds that turned to look
at him in the streets, the
stenographers that throng
ed Government office corri
dors when he passed, the
autograph hunters that sur
rounded him when he
made a speech.
For years also he went
to more extreme lengths
than any other celebrity —
even Greta Garbo —to be
alone. He fled to England,
later took a house on an is
land in the English Chan
nel, was a virtual exile in
Europe.
But this week in Wash
ington a remarkable thing
happened. In the lobby of
the Hotel Carlton, one of
the most popular hotels in
Washington, sat Charles A.
Lindbergh. For a time he
sat on a sofa, then paced
up and down the lobby
floor.
But though people ob
viously recognized him no
one stopped to talk, no one
asked for an autograph, no
one even spoke to him.
For almost the first time
since 1927, Lindbergh was
in public, but very much
alone.
Nazi News from Capitol
Here is how rapidly
news is getting back to Her
lin from the very capital of
the United States.
A week or so ago Wash
ington had a blackout; and
a few days before a group
of air wardens squabbled
with Civil Defense and re
signed.
Six hours after this hap
pened, the Berlin radio was
broadcasting the news as
an indication of confusion
among the American peo
ple and lack of defense in
the heart of their capital.
The FBI has been work
ing on these leaks for some
time Suspected are certain
foreign legations friendly

He said that a medium sherry
was being made by a process sel

of storing large oaken casks of
wine in a “hot room” for a period
of a year, during which a con

automatically.

Speaking before the Seat
tie Advertising and Sales
Club, Maj. Gen. David L.
Stone, Commander of the
Panama Canal Zone from
1937 to 1940 and now re
tired from active duty, de
clared that it isn’t healthy
to underestimate an oppon
ent.
“The Japanese are clev
er and far-sighted — thev
’ve been planning this
thing since 1904." General
Stone said. “They made
this war a business, and
not only have they copied
us in many things, but
have improved on us.”
The officer likened the
present need foe stamina,
courage, sacrifice and all
for-:me teamwork to the
unity of the famous Notre
Dame elevens coached by
the late Knule Rorkne.
“We’ll eventually win
this war, for no power can
resist the unity and re
sources of America,” he
said. “But we’ll have to ge<
down on our knees and
scratch gravel, perhaps.
We’ve got to build ships
and more ships; we’ve got
to keep-our Ion; lines of
communications stretching
half-way around the world

General Stone warned
that the Japanese mav try
