To All Nebraska Retail Crocers
State Director

In order to make the fullest DOS
sible use Of the largest peach crop on
record, the U. S. Department Of Ag-
riculture solicits your cooperation in
urging increased consumption and
preservation. You can help materially
by concentrating on peach promotion
during the next few weeks. In this
connection the following facts are
called to your attention:
l. The peak of the peach crop
reaching this req is expected soon.
2. Full utilization of this crop
means that consumers must be in
duced to buy large quantities for
fresh use and to can or otherwise
preserve as much as possible. DRIVE
HOME the fact that peaches can be
safely preserved with considerably
less sugar than the average housewife
is accustomed to using. POINT OUT
if no sugar is available peaches may
be canned without it, particularly
high quality, well-ripened fruit.
3. The main promotional PUSH
must come from you. Through USDA
efforts press and radio will carry the
message BUY PEACHESl" But
whether or not consumers actually
do buy them is pretty much up to the
retailer. Here is what you can do to
stimulate and clinch sales:

THE ATOMIC pOAIQ

When the first atomic bomb shat
tered Hiroshima last Sunday night,
the world saw much more than a
tremendous advance in the science of
destruction. Even the Japanese must
have realized that the human race is
capable Of destroying itself. Unless
the makers of wars at home and
abroad realize hat all men every
where now stand at the crossroads,
there is little hope for what we call
civilized man. And every person who
hates another human being, whether
he live in Houston or Hiroshima, in
Birmingham or Berlin, is helping to
point the way to destruction. While
the great secret is now in the hands
Of a peaceful nation, it will be only a
matter Of time before the scientists
the world over will know what is
now known in this country.
We who love peace must speed up
the progress Of closing the wide gap
between what we do with machines
and what we do to each other. Either
we shall learn to live together peace
fully upon the face of the earth, or
atomic bombs of our own making may
erase every sign of the civilization of
which we boast.
The Case for India
We in this country know very little
of the true story of what is going on
in India. The wall of censorship
thrown up by the British cuts off all
communication which does not meet
with the approval in London. We
never hear the true account of famine
and disease, and when authentic
news does leak through, PM is the
only major newspaper in the country
which carries the story. When young
Indians visit in this country, their
every move is watched, and practi-
cally every word spoken in public is
duly recorded an transmitted. If the
people Of India could tell their story
unmoleSted in this country, we would
feel very differently about many of
these things.
A New School
There is a move afoot in New Jer-
sey to build a new type Of junior col
lege, interracial in character, in which
students and teachers will share in
both management and administration.
The Tuskegee idea is about to func-
ton in reality.
Executive Order Needed
One way out Of the predicament in
which FEPC now finds itself would
be for President Truman to issue a
new executive order setting up a COM
mission with power and funds to OPP
crate. The now famous orders 1902
and 9346, issued by President Roose-
welt gave life to the agency which is
now slowly being strangled to death.
As long as the war lasts, the Presi-
| dent is authorized to issue such orders

RACE RIOTS
AREN'T NECESSARY
By Alfred McCIung Lee

Race riots are only symptoms of
something much deeper and bigger
than the breaking Of heads and store
fronts, the beating and terrorizing Of
~streetcar and bus passengers, the
shooting of defenseless and inofen-
Sive women and men, the burning of
automobiles" This thesis is set forth
by Alfred McClung Lee, professor
an department chairman Of sociology
at Wayne University, author of sew
eral books and formerly of the InSti-
tute for Propaganda Analysis, who in
v~estigateS race riots, probes to the
very roots Of the problem and sug-
gests corrective action in the latest
Public Affairs Pamphlet, Race Riots
Aren't Necessary.
The result is a simple and positive
approach to the complex set Of on
hicts known as the race problem.
Every citizen, especially those ac-
cepting civic, labor and religious re-
sponSibility should read and use the
measures suggested to prevent and
cure the effects Of the dread disease
of racism. Race Riots Aren't Neces-
sary is available at Workers Defense
) League, l12 Z. 10 St, New York 3,
n. Y.
While not minimizing the surface
results of discrimination, Lee Tecog-
nizes the fact that these are only re-
suits of the real evil which is the
perverSe inhumanity of man to man
known as racial intolerance OF 'Scape-
goatism'." He points out that "Scape-
goatism" is the common denomination
that brought about NaziSm in Ger
many, FaScism in Italy, and Ku Klux
KIaniSm and the 1913 Detroit race
riot in the United States.
While reminding us that raciSm is
the result Of poor housing for minori-
ties, Job discrimination, rumors, police
bias, delinquency, and negative police
attitudes, Lee also gives some very
pointed suggestions that individuals
and communities can use to combat
n threatening crisis or active race
riot. He is far too aStute, however, to
assume that it is sufficient to wait for
danger signals. He insists that there
is no substitute for a long-term pro-
gram to promote sound race rela-
tons, giving several leads to follow
and making the warning that such
planning is necessary in all American
communities.
Lee is no inspired" soapbox ha-
ranguer with a mission" He knows
the nature of the problem he attempts
to solve, and he knows the limitations
of the overwhelmingly the sheltered
and poorly informed but essentially
honest and well-meaning American
public-with which he hopes to solve
the problem.
Any shortcomings in the pamphlet
may be attributed to the lack of space
given the author; he has OverSimpli-
fled several aspects, but he has at
tempted to compensate by including a
photography which is qualitatively ex-
%cellent. The pamphlet is illustrated
with the delightful drawings charac-
teristic of Public Affairs Pamphlets,
and which are such assets to the sub
jectS covered.

The life insurance companies Of
the United States have never shown
any great inclination to write life
insurance in foreign countries, add
ing that today there are few Ameri-
can companies operating outside the
continental limits of the United
States. Several Canadian companies.
however, have a fairly large life in

connection the countries chosen by
the United States and Canadian COM
panies operating in the foreign field
are generally more stable and con-
sequently there is less risk of dis

Cabbage Vitamins


Air, water and heat are the thieves
that rob cabbages of their vitamin
Z. Therefore, the less you cut, cook
or have to store cabbage the more
vitamin value you receive for your
money. Young green cabbage
fresh from the garden, washed and
eaten raw is the IDEAL way to get
the most flavor and food value
that cabbage can give.

Motorists habits affect tire life
SO markedly that it is possible to

average tire mileage with that Of
other drivers in the same area, it is

turns at high speed, running tires at
subnormal imitation or at high
