Fast Dye Needed to
Set Colors in Material

1t is not possible to 'set'' the col
ors in a piece of material by wash
ing in salt water. If dye isn't fast,
washing in salt or vinegar won't
help-colors will continue to run.
The mill that dyes the cloth took
care of all that can be done to try
to make colors fast. The dyer would
like always To use fast color dyes;
but some of the best dyes have gone
to war, and for time we will have
to use caution in washing both cot
tons and rayons.
1t is possible to preshrink the ma
terial, though. Wash it in warm wa
ter, and when it is dry enough to
iron, press it straight and even.
But even then you won't know
whether it will shrink again in an
other washing. Cotton does not get
its complete shrinkage in the first
washing, and it Gan be stretched in
the ironing.
The best rule is: Don't take
chances. Before you buy any yard
goods, ask about color fastness and
shrinkage. If no information is
available, ask for a swatch Of it
anyway, and test. II 1t isn't exactly
what you want don't buy it.

Good Diets May Affect
Nations Fighting Proves

Fighting accomplishment of ar
mics in World War II may be de-
pendent on adequacy of national
diets, according to DR.. Agnes Fay
Morgan of the University of Cali
fornia. She points out that the pro-
tective foods in national prewar
diets of Germany and France fall
into the same order as the NOR
tally statistics; the death rates
were ITO per 10000 population for
Germany, and 1874 for France.
The better German record, in
health as in war, may originate in
the higher milk, fruit, and vegetable
portion, or the lower amount of
cereal and sugar in the national diet,
she believes. Likewise, she indicates
that the B vitamin content of the
French bread is low and that of the
German bread high, since the
French eat white bread made with
little or no yeast, while German
bread is hole-grain, largely rye,
and made with yeast. She says that
German beer is a fair source of B
vitamins, but French wine is poor.
The food of the Russians is SINH
lar in vitamin content to that of the
Germans, DR.. Morgan explains. The
whole-grain yeast bread, vegetables,
milk and meat which they eat may
account for their physical and psy-
Geological stamina, usually charac-
teristic of the Well-nourished.

Every fiber Of the traditional
independence of farmers rebels

into unions, or of being forced
to pay union fees for the pur-
pose of trucking their produce

leaders here, and they will fight
every attempt of the unions to
organize the farm workers.
They do not believe unionism
will work on the farms and that
the unions will defeat the very
purpose of the farm Organiza-
tions themselves which have

Labor Tnvades' Agriculture
WNU Washington Bureau

WNU Washington Bureau
62l Union Trust Building.
7 ABOR organizations which have
- inched their way into the field
OF agriculture over vigorous protest
of agricultural organizations are
now planning engagements of
these labor beachheads already
gained, according to indications
here.
So alarmed has the Farm
Bureau federation become over
latest reports of labor en-
croachment into the farm field,
that they are preparing to go
before congress and ask for
preventive legislation, proba-
bly, similar to the Hobbs bill
which passed the house in 1912,
but which died in the senate.
This measure brought labor
organizations within the terms
of the federal misunderstanding
act.
This latest point of conflict is an
other outbreak between farmers on
the eastern seaboard, particularly
in the Philadelphia area, and the
Transfers Union, AFL, which is
seeking to bring farm workers driv-
ing farmers trucks into the team
sters union. In some instances farm
ers' trucks have been stopped and
the unions have charged an unload
ing fee" where the drivers have
been non-union. The house agricul-
tural committee is expected within
a few weeks to start hearings on
complaints of farmers and revive
the ''hot cargo investigation of 1912
which exposed union practices in
the food industry. It is reported
that some of the farm-to-market
truckers have been required to
pay union fees as high as $50 to
unload perishable foods.
The farm bureau contends that
this practice is an interference with
the movement of food to market,
will be ruinous to crops and trade
and will diminish supplies to con-
sumers in a period in which food
supplies are critically needed.

Farm Leaders Apprehensiue

Farm leaders are apprehensive Of
what may happen when and if John
L. Lewis, head of the miners union,
makes his peace and is received
back into the American Federation
of Labor. When that happens, and
predictions are that it will happen
soon, the labor organizations are ex-
pected to expend real money to
finance union expansion.
Milk drivers in the dairy indus
try, workers in canneries and proc
essors in fruit and other perish
ables. fruit pickers, hop workers
and some others already unionized
constitute the beachheads or spring
boards from which further attempts
to organize agricultural workers
and farmers may proceed. 1t will
be recalled that the interchangeable
Mr.. Lewis boosted that he would
organize the agricultural workers
of the nation into unions and farm
leaders here do not believe that his
boast was all bluff.
The contention is made here that
if the labor unions can force farm
workers who drive farm-to-market
trucks to join the teamsters union,
why cannot they force drivers of
tractors or combines or any other
farm machinery to join ma
chinists union or some other labor
union?

Assistant Secretary of State Mac
Leish said last night that the Big

was a complete surprise to him
and many other State Department

In a radio discussion of the State

Mr.. MacLeish referred to criticism
of the 47-day delay in announcing
the voting agreement made at the

1T came as complete surprise to
a good many of US" he admitted.
That didn't make it any easier for
those of us with an information pro-

He added that he supposed the
incident should be written off "as
another example of the difficulty of

LONDON, April Hopes for Pol

but vanished today as it was learned
that attempts to establish a coali-

government said fatty that lack of

and the Soviet-sponsored Warsaw
administration was blocking forma-

regime.
Earlier the Polish Telegraph

said Is Polish political leaders had
disappeared after presenting them
selves to Soviet authorities in ac-
cepting an invitation to fly to Lon
don.
Despite statement last night
by Secretary of State Settinius that
it was highly important that pro-
visional government be established
by the Poles in time for the San
Francisco meeting later this month,
it was learned authoritatively that
no progress in that direction had
been made recently.
Meanwhile. the United States and

cision that Poland could be repre-
