Clio Unionist Arrested
In Florida in Labor
Expectation Case
Ey the Associated Pres

By the heAssociated Press.
ORLANDO. Fla, Aug. 4-Otis G
Nation, business agent for the Flor
ida Citrus and Allied Workers
Union tCIO) local here, was arrested
today on charges of violating a new
State law requiring persons who re-
cruit labor for out of State employ
ment to pay $1,000 State and $500
county license fees.
The arrest grew out of the depar-
ture Saturday of special train car
rying 438 colored workers from here
to Camden, N. J., to work in the
Campbell Soup Co. plant.
Orange County Tax Collector Carl
jackson said he called on Mr.. Ma
ton last week for payment of the
lax as an "emigrant agent" Mr..
Nation said he merely had referred
some members of his union to the
Camden jobs in his capacity as busi-
ness agent, since the CIO had a
contract for supplying labor for the
plant, but that he subsequently ad-
7lsed them not to leave on the train
in view of Mr.. Jackson's interpre-
tation that his actions constituted
those of an emigrant agent under
the new law, passed by the 1943
Legislature.
The warrant was issued by Sheriff
Jim Black. Mr.. Nation pleaded in
nocent when arraigned before JUS
tice of the Peace Eugene Duckworth
end promptly made $4,000 cash
bond. A preliminary hearing was
set for Friday.

is that most of the in uniform able to buy

Because beans have such a high protein content, they are important in our wartime menus. With a good standard recipe you can vary the dish according to your taste, sweeter or less sweet, spicy or not, as you will. The one below steers sort of middle course. It has plenty of the rich brown sweetness of mo- iasses along with the poppy spiel ness of mustard and chili sauce, combination that baked-bean lovers consider extra special.

when largest amounts of food waste are reported.
 Bread mold thrives during this month, and agriculture experts advise storing bread in the icebox for the next few weeks. Vegeta- bles wilt and wither and should be placed in tight container in the refrigerator.
 Government figures show that 15 per cent of the food you buy is wasted. that one-quarter of the garbage in August is composed of vegetable greens. Annually, MT. and Mrs. America waste 300 pounds per person. Food waste from harvest to consumer is esti- mated at between 20 and 30 per cent.
 RABBIT BUSES
 A rabbit by any other name is still a rabbit, according to F. G. Ashbrook, Department of Interior authority who points out some of the following trade names for rab- bit pelts: Baltic red fox; Arctic seal, Australian cony, Baltic lion, Beav- erette, minkony, leopardine, Russian lynx, Roman seal, French beaver, electric mole, molin, Galland squir- rel and lapin, which he explains is merely French for rabbit.
 ENOUGH RAISINS, PRUNES
 Because the Armed services, Lend Lease and civilians will need tre- mendous quantities of dried fruit, the War Food Administration has set fairly high prices for raisins and prunes to encourage production this season. Crowded prices reflect an increase of $45 ton to cover high production costs, but the con- sumer level will not be affected due to subsidies.

WE, THE WOMEN.
THE EWOMEN-- Stay at Home Wives May Find Change In Soldier Husbands

business sitting around trying brave- ly to carry on" until her husbands return.
 Not if by getting into uniform herself she can help to win the war.
 Furthermore, as the lieutenant points out, the sitting -at-home role doesn't offer much to the woman.
 Why should she deliberately turn down the chance to lead a new and interesting life, while her husband is writing her enthusiastic letters about all that he is seeing and doing?
 NO REAL COMPLIMENT A mans determination to have his wife "stay put" so that he ! needn't worry about her while he is gone sounds noble-if you don't look into it too closely. The average wife accepts it as high compliment.
 But the wife who really has a right to feel complimented is the woman whose husband takes this attitude: "I'm proud of you for wanting to do something to help win this war. You choose your job, and I'm with you. Besides, know you'll be much happier if you are having new experiences and working hard rather than sitting around home worrying about me-"
