The Homemaker's
Corner
By MARY DOUGLAS

You often hear homemakers say
that they can't bake desserts be-
cause they do not have enough sugar.
Well, why not try the molasses way?
Fluffy ginger bread, delicious rice
pudding, Indian tapioca, refrigerator
cookies, bread pudding and raisin
pie are all desserts that are excel
lent when made with molasses as
the sweetening agent.
Gingerbread with a cream cheese
topping, or served with apple sauce
makes a delightful dessert. This is
the way to make it the molasses way:
Gingerbread
Combine Y cup melted shortening
with Ia cups molasses. Add l beat
en- egg. Stir until well blended. Mix
and sift 212 cups sifted flour, liz
teaspoons soda, teaspoon each of
cinnamon and ginger, Y teaspoon
each of cloves and salt and add alter
nately with "a cup hot water. Bake
in well-greased 9 by 9 by 2 inch
pan in a moderate oven, $50 degrees
for As minutes. Yield 16 squares.
Refrigerator Cookies are delicious
made with molasses. You can keep
a roll of the cookie dough in the re-
frigerator and bake as needed. The
recipe follows:

Our boys who are doing such fine job
of pushing back the Germans in Europe
and the Japs in the Pacific are an object
lesson to we Americans who remain at
home. Their ability TO stick to their task
is what is winning the war.
On our side, we too can stick to our job
of seeing the boys through to the end. We
can do this right now by not permitting
ourselves TO become too satisfied with
with what we have done, but by purchaS-
ing an extra bond or two.
Buy all the bonds you can. Stick by
your job and we will soon end this war

Chrysler Corporation had to be convinced and
they too conceded that the UAW-CIO repre-
sented their employees
Then came the NLRB elections which
brought recognition of the UAW CIO in GIN
plants to total of 101.
THE FORD CASE
The Ford Motor Co, the last big corpora
ton to hold out, could not forever stall off a
NLRB election and when this was held in
1941, the UAW CO won by majority of
to L. The Ford contract was the first JAW
contract TO union shop and check off clauses
so the triumph over the Ford Corporation was
complete.
AS a result of the increasing manufactu.
of aircraft it became essential that UAW-CIO
expand to include the aircraft workers and
alter its title to cover the new members
At this time the strike weapon was made
more effective by setting up constitutional
procedure for authorization In this way no
one local could strike for minor issue be-
cause authorization was required, but if the
issue warranted authorization, then the whole
union backedthe strike instead of one isolated
local.
About this time the UAW -CIO began to
play an active part in politics and proceeded to
boost the friends of labor and expose its enc
mics. Despite the opposition of John l.. Lewis,
the UAW-CIO indorSed Roosevelt in 1870
Since that time the UAW -CIO has continued
by giving out the facts to the election of many
friends of labor, and has helped put the skiGN&
under more than one foe of labor in congreaM
The latest of this group of defeated pubW
foes of labor is Congressman Dies who will
not seek reelection
AS later columns will show we have only
scratched the surface as far political action
is concerned, but an excellent start has been
made.
BY 1941 the membership of the UAW -CIO
had grown to figure very close to GAO, 900.
With the expansion of industry in the war, this
figure was to double, as we shall see.
