Race Prejudice Aids
 Enemy Says Robbins
Northern Baptist Convention President Says Riots Represent Everything Which Is Ant-Christan

Dr. Joseph c. Robbins, president f the Northern Baptist denomina- Aton, issued the following statement sn race riots yesterday from his of- hce, 152 Madison avenue, New York City.
 'The race riots, which have oc- cured in two of our largest cities during the past few days, costing the lives of many American citizens, causing a marked decrease of vital war production, and placing a strain upon the international rela- tionS of two great democracies, call tor 8 re-study of the basic princi- ples for which our nation is fight Ing, and for a re-emphasis of the Christian principles of brotherhood and the inherent rights of the in- dividual. Such review, we believe Ehould culminate' in an act of na- tional repentance and action which would, in some manner, relieve us of the shame which has descended upon us.
 We view these manifestations of race prejudice with great alarm. They feed the propaganda machines of our enemies in Japan and Ger many. They turn American against American, dividing the nation by lines of color. They represent everything, in spirit and in action, which is Christian.
 'The mob spirit, brutality, disre- gard for law and order, which have been set loose in these cities are akin to Nazi Germany at it's worst. Our fear is that the riots which be- gan with opposition to so-called 'zoot suits will spread over the land from city to city, from village to village, endangering the lives of millions of innocent American cit lzens. Those of Mexican, Chinese and Negro descent would then be subjected to persecution modelled after that of our enemies.
 "The years of labor we have spent in developing schools and colleges for Negroes, in providing city mis- sions, Christian centers for colored people, and a policy of sharing among all races are seriously en- dangered by this wave of race per- secution. We will not be able to make much, if any progress, as Christian leaders, against such demonstrations which deny, in vio- lence and bloodshed, what we at tempt to teach.
 Strikes due to racial discrimina- tions, friction in the armed forces of the nation, a revival of Jim Crowism in the north as well as the south, teh rising tide of bitterness in the hearts of colored people, all point to future of strife and bat tie to the death. All this is hap pening while, China, India and Africa, look on with apprehension and alarm.
 Tn order to prevent such a de- velopment on a nationwide scale, ac- tion must be taken at once. Our

 On Canning System
Water Bath Method Explained; Precautions Listed to
 Guard Against BOtulinus Poisoning

1 for canning It is desirable that the State Food Preservation Committee endorse a policy that will be uni form fo rthe State and clear the existing confusion. Recommenda- tions must be both safe and prac- tical.
 "Ninety-five percent of the home canned food used in Connecticut has been processed by the hot water bath method for the past twenty five years. Since 1922 only ten cases of botulinus poisoning with four fatalities have been reported in this State. This makes 1t evident that the organism has not ben a serious menace in Connecticut.
 We recognize that the pressure cooker method is the best for can- ming non-acid vegetables, soup and meat. Practically less than ten per cent of the people can get pressure cookers this year. We, therefore, continue to recommend the use of the hot water bath urging observ- ance of the practices listed.
 l. Use absolute cleanliness in ma terials and equipment.
 2. Use strictly fresh products of good quality.
 3. Follow strictly the time and temperature chart for processing.
 4. Special Precaution. On open- ing can of non-acid vegetables or meats processed by any other meth- cd than the pressure coker, the con- tents before being tasted should be immediately boiled over direct heat When it comes to boil it should be stirred to make sure that heat pen etrates all portions, then boiled vigorously for Is minutes. Some authorities recommend 10 minutes vigorous boiling, but IS minutes 1, advised to make sure that any toxin present is destroyed
 The recommendation follows closely the rules given in the Uni versity of Connecticut Extension Service bulletin on Home Preser- vation of Fruits and Vegetables. The time and temperature chart re- ferred to is found in this bulletin. The only significant change is the recommendation that non-acid veg etables and meats be boiled 15 min utes rather than 10 minutes when the jars are opened.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-06-26

Safe and practical recommenda- tions" for the use of the water bath method of canning, familiar to more housewives than any other method, have been adopted by the Home Preservation of Foods Com mittee of the State War Council.
 Following discussion of the sub ject at it's last meeting, the con- mittee has drawn up statement approving the use of the water bath method but listing precautions that should be observed to guard against botulinus poisoning.
 The statement reads:
 "In response to the nationwide request for increased production and preservation of food, individual families are making plans to can and store unprecedented amounts of food this year. There are con- flicting statements on the use of the hot water bath as a method

 AdUises Youngsters
Police Department Safety Expert Hopes Riddles Will Enjoy, Happy, Exciting, but Safe
 Vacation - Health Is Wealth.

Waterbury,S school children, about to begin their summer vacation, were offered number of vacation hints by Patrolman William Dwyer of the Accident Prevention Bureau today Said Officer DWyer:
 Well, Fellas and Girls, the big moment has finally arrived. the day when we get out of school for the summer vacation. Let us say to ourselves right now that 1t is going to be well spent and we are going to get the most out of it. The very purpose of the vacation is to give everyone rest from the long grind of reading, writing and arithmetic. Of course if we are old enough, there is plenty to be done to help in the war effort, but We must always remember the most import ant job is that of keeping our health.
 'The greatest gift of all and the sad part of it is that many of us fail to appreciate how fortunate we are in having our health until it is lost. It is so easy in these modern times to become involved with Ole Man Accident, he is like the Japs waiting to sneak up on you if you are not on the alert. Not just one day but all the time there can be no letdoWn on our part, because we all know that one moment of care lessness may bring lifetime of re- gret. We are not going to give you a long list of Don'ts, as a matter of fact, we want everyone to get out and have a. swell time, so that you will be fit for next fall when school opens Up again. All we ask is to remember this little warning. No matter who you are, where you are, or what you are doing, be sure that
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-06-26

law courts must prosecute the in- stigators of such riots, regardless of the color of the person involved, with absolute justice. Our rising juvenile delinquency problems must be handled realistically by social agencies and the church. Cities must take immediate measures to give the Negro his right to contri- age boys. Parents must give more time to the cultivation of home in- terestS. Employers must protect the right of Negroes to produce war material along with white workers, as human being and not as ma chimes, and the government must give the Negro his rigfht to contri- bute blood and to fight for America on equal terms with all citizens. Congress should take prompt action to remove the tain of race prejudice which now colors our immigration laws.
 For our own part we call upon our pastors and churches to take definite and immediate action to remedy the grave social ills which create racial discrimination and color consciousness. We also urge them to unite with those of other denominations, with civic agencies and social welfare societies which are working for brotherhood and good will. This is time for Chris tians to stand together for the rights of man-all men, of all creeds, colors and Sects.
 Because the present crisis de- mands reaf1rmation of our official announcements on race relations, we now proclaim and call to the attention of our people, for study and for practice, the following &C., cepted principles of the Northern Baptist convention:
 i've affirm our belief in the equal rights of man. we seek by every method of aggressive good will to remove every practice of discrim- inatory law, every anti-racial or ganization and all unfair tactics that in flict injustice or suffering upon any individual or group on ac- count of race, creed, or political affi- liation.'
