Mothers Neglect The Basic
Education Of Their Dauqhters

If a daughter didn't learn all that
her mother knew to teach her, it
wasn't the mothers fault, for she
started on her young.
MOTHERS LAX
But mothers of today take very
little pains with teaching t h e r
daughters the things that life has
taught them. Instead they get to-
gether at bridge clubs and talk
about how little n er st their
daughters show in any branch of
homemaking and how their daugh-
tiers high-hat all of their ideas. And
the mothers do nothing but shrug
their shoulders. Girls get better ed
locations outside of home o d y
tnan they used to get.
But it's pity how ignorant they
are allowed to remain about the
job of homemaking.

Through these chapters we ex-
pect to launch an educational pro-
gram which will strengthen the ties
between the Americans and h
Dutch. The most important feature
will be the Hendrix Willem van
Loon scholarships, named in honor
of the famous writer who died last
year. We want tc establish these
scholarships in agriculture, medi-
cine, engineering and other subjects
in the leading universities of the
country. The idea is to enable
Dutch students to do year of
post graduate work in the United
States and learn the country and
its people at first hand.
'"To date we have established two
scholarships-Doth at Johns Hop
kins University and both endowd
by Theodore Marburg, Baltimore
publicist. But we expect to extend
the scholarship plan widely. In
addition to this, we plan to establish
four chairs in universities in var
ious parts of the country to be &C.
cupied by Dutch professors. We are
doing the work now so that the
plan may begin to function as soon
as the war is over"

Home Care
For RaYons
By VIVIAN BROWN

If you've been wondering W h y
that acetate rayon dress suddenly
has faded-brand new as it might
|be-you can blame it on the at
|mosphere.
In a new consumer leaflet pre-
pared by a leading yarn manu-
facturer, atmospheric gas fading is
the term used to describe C o r
changes that sometimes take place
in acetate rayor fabrics.
Contrary to popular belief, fumes
from a gas stove are not the only
causes of atmospheric gas fading.
Acid gases which cause fading are
found in the atmosphere in the av-
erage home or store, in almost ev-
cry location, summer or winter.
The fading may even occur while
the dress is hung safely away in
a closet.
1t has been found that paper, felt,
wool and camphor all tend to ac-
celerate gas fading. Therefore do
not cover acetate "a yon clothes
with paper protectors or hang them
in paper garment bags. Use cloth
covers and garment bags instead.
Never hang them next to woo
dresses in the closet, and when you
store acetate rayons, see that the
fumes from camphor, moth balls
or flakes can't get to them.
To minimize gas fading in wash
able clothes containing acetate ray

An automobile company is plan
ming an educational program to
train the sons of it's dealers to as
sumo the business responsibilities
Of their fathers.
Why wouldn't it be an equally
good idea for mothers to r n
their daughters to follow in their
paths-even if the path leads to
the kitchen?
Back in grandmother's d ay it
was naturally assumed that each
mother taught he- daughter all that
she knew in the art of getting a
husband, and in the art of living
and homemakins.
Recipes for living were passed
along from mother to daughter
along with tried and true recipes
for apple pie and angel food cake.

Mrs. Mckee Stone recently cover
ed 5000 miles in 80 days to help lay
a new foundation for postwar cul-
tural cooperation between h e
United States and the Netherlands.
Mrs. Stone, socially prominent
IN New York and Washington, is
national director of the Neither
fundamental Foundation, founded
to promote good will between the
two countries through the fields of
science, literature and art. On her
trip she launched chapters in ten
western and midwestern cities as
part of a framework in the organ
ization's new national program.
The NAT was founded in 1921
by prominent Americans includ-
ing DR.. Hamilton Holt, now Presi-
dent of Rollins College, Florida:
the, late Edward Box. Philadel-
phia publisher; and the late
Henry van Dyke, former U. S.
Minister at the Hague. A counter
part functioned in Holland. The
activities of both have lapsed dur
ing the war, but the work of the
American founda ton was revived
in 1943 and those of the Neither
lands group are expected to be
resumed as soon as war conditions
permit.
Queen Wilhelmina of Holland
and President Roosevelt are hon.
orary members of the American
group. Thomas Watson, President
of International B u sin Ma
chimes, Inc, heads it's new board
OF directors, which also includes
Winthrop Aldrich, New York
banker; Thomas Morgan, presi-
dent of the Sperry Corporation,
and Juan Trippe, president OF Pan
American Anyways.
Formerly the American organi-
zation's activities were centered in
New York." said Mrs. Stone, in
her New York office. "Now it will
function on a national scale. On my
"trip we laid the groundwork for new
chapters in Los Angeles, San Fran

County Obtains
Gas Allotment
To Handle Crops

Imperial county will receive ad-
ditional allotments of gasoline to
keep the crops moving to market.
This was the good news learned
by Rudolph Miller, secretary of
the county agricultural conserva-
ton association, Wednesday morn
ing.
Last week end Mr.. Miller and
ODT officials estimated that the
$4,000 gallons that would be allot-
ed the county during January ana
February would fall short 10000
gallons of the minimum require
ments needed to keep the trucks
and farm vehicles operating to
harvest and ship the valleys crops
these two months.
The additional allotment will
make available approximately $780,
600 gallons which is still 33 per
cent under the 100000 gallons
normally needed for valley con-
sumption during the peak months.
This also means that lot OF
cooperation is going to be necessary
from all drivers" Miller said. This
amount is the bare minimum
amount that will permit us to keep
our trucks rolling and there Won.
be any left over for pleasure driv-
ing OF wastefulness."
The help of pleasure drivers in
foregoing any unnecessary driving
is important or We'll have trucks
stalled for lack of fuel, he further
advised.
If careless use of the fuel causes
the supply to be insufficient, then
Miller said. drastic measures will
be enforced. The only other pro-
ceedure that can be followed will
be the designation by the ODT and
OPA of some eight stations in the
county who will service agricultural
trade only and then only with spe-
cial ration certificates. Armed OPA
guards will enforce the drastic
measures.

has learned, plus assertion that
the NaziS engineered the coup of
last June, which placed the Rami-
rez government in power, and are

of a lengthy report from sources
inside Argentina now in the hands

When the Nazis saw defeat star

cording to the report, they realized
it was time to prepare haven for
themselves and their capital. The
United Nations had made it clear
they had intended to punish all

leaders realized that no European
neutral could offer protection.
They knew that they could find
real safety only in a country they

find than a country in the new
world easy to prepare as a haven
and one which the United Nations
would hesitate to invade for fear
of being accused of imperialism by
her other good neighbors?"
