NUTRITION AND
LABOR
Vine-Ripe Tomatoes

To the Italian the tomato is Col
den Apple" In France, England. and
in this country it was once called the
Love Apple" Young men going-a-
courting often carried ii bunch of ripe
red tomatoes and tremendously pre-
sented them to their ladies. They were
kept on the table as we keep flowers
today Now it is the Tomato" or the
"Tomah-to", and it is delicious.
Firm, fresh raw tomatoes are in
season. They may be prepared as Il
vegetable, as salad, or in sandwiches.
Innumerable kinds of salads can be
made for which the tomatoes are
chilled and marinated with French
dressing. A few time-tested combina-
tiOns include the following Lettuce
and tomato; tossed salad bowl: ava
cado slices and tomato wedges in let
cumber on lettuce roset0p tomato
with chicken salad; and tomato slices,
cottage cheese, and stuffed eggs.
The tomato is wholesome and is IA
good source of two vitamins. One
small tomato will furnish about 1-3
of the recommended daily allowance
for vitamin G and about Is of the
yitamin A allowance. A 5-0unce glass
of tomato juice will make approXi
mately the same contribution. Let us
make sure, however, that the tomato
ripens on the vine and is not picked
green to ripen on the kitchen shelf.
Such practice not only affects the color
and texture, but il reduces the food
value by diminishing the vitamin c.
The folly Of this practice may
further be seen when we note that
there is little vitamin G in winter to-
Tomatoes grown in a green
house (under glass; have much less
G than those grown out-of-
doors, and tomatoes from unsupported
garden vines have a lower vitamin G.
content than those from pole-support-
ed vines.
The tomato is sun-loving plant. 1t
is native Of South America. It's ac-
ceptance as food came very slowly and
when 1t was introduced into the Unit
ed States I'm 1900 it was first used as
an ornamental plant or as shrubbery
In the yard. 1t belongs to the night
shade family which includes some poi
sonous members, but to which the po-
tato and the eggplant also belong. 1t
was accepted and cultivated in Mex
GO and Peru centuries before the ad |
vent of the Spaniards. There is men
ion of it in England at the end of the |
10th century. Today it is the third
largest vegetable crop in the United
States, being exceeded only by the po-
-atO and the sweet potato.

fully" the chief hope for police sue,
cess in influencing intergroup relation
ships lies in the field of prevention.
This Is the thesis of the report, pre-
pared for the association by J. f.
Weckler, member of the staff of the
American Council on Race Relations
and Theo Hail. chief of police of Will
inette, H. The report is based on
analyses of action taken by police
forces of 30 cities during recent tense
racial situations and on the ideas and
comments of many police and other
municipal officials.
Positive Program Urged
Pointing out that deaths and in
juries, extensive property destruction,
and severe damage To public morale
are virtually inevitable in any large
scale disorder, the report calls for II
positive" police program aimed at i'm
proving intergroup relationships, which
will have as its by-product the elimi-
nation of riots, and makes "constrnc-
tive, practical suggestions on preven-
tive policing in the field of interracial
relationships" Emphasis is placed on
police technique for preventing riots
and improving relations between differ
ent groups.
"The vast population movements
which have occurred during the war
have created problems that gravely
threaten widespread civil disorder In
the near future and In the early post
war years." the report said.
Unemployment Big Danger
New job opportunities for members
of minority groups, the competition
among workers for war-scarce con-
sumer goods, housing, transportation,
recreation - these and other factors
may lead to Increased antagonism
between racial, religious or national
groups.
"Such a situation In community
may result In serious disorders II not
handled with care and consideration.
The danger viii be especially great II
there Is any extensive unemployment
after the war The methods police
use to handle their end of this prob
lem will 90 far toward determining
whether the inevitable changes are
made peaceably or whether they are
accompanied by civil strife"
The report recognizes difficulties
and limitations" under which police
operate in such situations, and points
out that "the police usually are blamed
IL trouble breaks out" even though
they cannot control or solve the basic
causes Of antagonism between groups.
"But In every community" the re-
port adds, police impartiality In par
ticularly important in the handling of
tense situations or clashes between
of different racial, religious
or national groups tand) Is the
only basis on which the police can
expect the cooperation of all groups in
the prevention of disorder"
Police Forces Praised
Police forces of several cities In
Guiding Washington, ID. c., Flint,
Mich, Houston, Tex, Passaic, N. j.,
and New York City. did magnificent
jobs In maintaining order or In min
lmizing outbreaks that did occur dur

bulk OF the fund being raised by
public subscription to assist Harry
d. Williamson, Forestville school

ing to Mr.. Warner.

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-The stock
market faltered today after failure
Of early efforts to extend yesterdays
upturn and industrial leaders gen.
orally retreated fractions to around
point.
The decline was attributed to what
speculative sources conceived as an
impaired technical position rather
than news developments, although
domestic political events were cited
as reason for some buying caution.
Persistent heaviness of steels and
certain popular specialties helped to
bring out selling in the late proceed
ings. Rails were irregular. A few
golo mine issues moved up in the
final hour. Transactions totaled
about 100000 shares.
