HAIRDO:
HELPFUL HINTS.


From Mrs. r. D., Washington.)
We have so enjoyed this wonder

been so good to contribute to it.
For Mrs. L. NJ, Washington: Hair

the face, enjoy a good brushing
Part some hair back of each, ear

the front; turn it back and under

comb each side up and roll or just

Your hair will remain put from 6

an orange stick pushing it up here

When We live in an apartment we

Then wash it out.
A good bleach: After washing
cloths in the usual way take clear
water and add one teaspoon OF
cream of tartar for each quart OF

you. 1t is well worth trying.
More hints: My husband told me

this on for what it is worth as he
might be telling me this to encourage

This year, District residents will
be part Of the November elections,
instead Of sitting in the grandstand.
Not full-f1edged vote, the plebis-
cite nevertheless gives residents a
chance to say whether or not they
wish to elect their own officials and
whether or not they wish to par
ticipate in national elections. OF
course, the chance to cast a vote
whether it be yea or nay-is offered
to women as we'll as to men.
The Women's Bureau of the De-
partment of Labor has a bit to say
on women and the vote. They claim
that if all women eligible to vote
as of July / last should exercise
their privilege, they would cast 49,
403,210 ballots this fall, nearly the
same number as the entire national
vote in the presidential campaign
year of 1914. Although many who
have the privilege of voting let in
ertia rob them of this privilege, it
has been noted that since 1923 there
has been a trend toward greater
exercise of the voting privilege, es-
pecially among women.
Fannie Hurst challenged women S
political responsibilities in a speech
several months ago when she urged
women to wake up and stop being
"the sleeping beauty of politics. >
According to Miss Hurst, men won't
impede this. even If they don't help
and many Of our economic and So
cial handicaps are the result of fe-
male passivity rather than male
opposition. Miss Hurst also felt thai
women should become conscious OF
| such questions as why there wa.
only one American woman delegate
at San Francisco; why are womer
conspicuous by their absence in oul
national committee consideration.

OATMEAL BREAD;
FRUIT CAKE?

Il fFTOm IL. H., SttCcT SUWg.)
Swedish Oatmeal Bread: Pour 4
cups of boiling water over 2 cups
of rolled oats, tablespoon salt. Let
stand hours, add / cup dark corn
sirup, / cake of yeast dissolved in
warm water Stir in as much -four
as possible at night. Cover tightly
and let rise until morning Work
down and put in loaf pans. Let
rise while in pans and bake in slow
oven.
Would some reader please send in
a good fruit cake recipe?
From Mrs. L. C. p, Washington
Mrs. w. Meg, Silver Spring, asked
for a recipe for oatmeal bread
made with yeast. am sending you
mine-one that I have used for sew
eral years. One doesn't know
whether it is oatmeal bread or rye
when eating it. The one great secret
in successful bread making is to
use enough yeast. Three or four
cakes for each quart of liquid is
needed.
Oatmeal Bread: Two heaping
cups of oatmeal-quick or regular
tablespoon salt, u cup or more
dark molasses, quart of boiling
water.
Let stand until lukewarm and add
fresh yeast cakes. Let stand about
IS minutes for cakes to soften, add
or so cups white -four, not all at
once, in case that much Is not
needed. So much depends upon the
brand.
Knead until it leaves the board
and is smooth. Let rise until double,
dump out onto board, divide into
four, punch fiat, double over. punch
fiat, double over, then once again.
Let stand few minutes, roll tightly
as a jelly roll, place in creased
bread pans, wet hand under cold
water tap, press dough fiat and
into corners of pans. Let rise until
almost double, and bake at $50 de-
grees for / hour. Turn out of pans
onto a wire cooler-I use one OF the
REFRIGERATOR racks - right side up.
Cover with a clean towel and allow
to cool. No shortening is used and
the bread does not dry out-perhaps
due to the molasses.

BACON SUBSTITUTE.
From Miss L. c., Wdshington.)
When there is no bacon to be had,
thought the RICH readers would like
to know of q good substitute for
flavoring foods. At health food
stores I was able to obtain can
of hickory smoked dried brewers
yeast. 1t is nice sprinkled over
eggs, cheese dishes, etc. 1t may
be used in many other foods, and
gives a baconlike favor, and it
contains a liberal supply of vitamin

supplies. Any savings achieved
through the operations of the
marketing service will be refund
ed. Since the 1916 program is
considered as experimental, South
ern States officials consider 1t
probable that some out-of-pocket
losses may be sustained in getting
the program functioning, in which
case there will be no refunds. The
single major objective of the
marketing program as pointed out
by Mr.. Hurd and Mr. Gordon,
director of Southern States Mark
eting Service, is to enable the
farmer-user of the service to get
as much as possible for his grain.
For this reason, Southern States
Cooperative Mills will in no in
stance be the purchaser of any
grains marketed under the pro-
gram unless they are willing to
pay at least as much for the grain
as can be obtained elsewhere.
Smyrna times., 1946-06-13

The service is considered as exper-
mental and is being restricted to
these certain areas because of the
shortages of grain loading and
storage facilities and personnel
limitations. AS experience is gain
ed in marketing grains for farmers
and as facilities can be made avail
able, it is expected that the pro-
gram will be expanded. The pro-
gram will be directed by Howard
H. Gordon, director of Southern
States Marketing Service. George
Leitze will serve as acting mana
ger of Southern States Grain
Marketing Service. For the pres
ent, the marketing service will be
concerned with helping farmers
market their wheat, rye, corn, and
soybean crops to best advantage.
Managers of the participating
stores and Agencies, including Ed
ward E. Hurd of Smyrna were
schooled in the grading and handl-
ing of small grains at a meeting
in Baltimore recently. Training in
the marketing of corn and soy
beans will be given later in the
season. The stores and agencies
participating in the program will
purchase grain from farmers, pay
ing the full competitive price
based on local market conditions.
The Southern States Grain Mark
citing Service will then act as the
marketing agency for the grain

Groton Non-Purtisuns Increase in Prestige

telegrams were sent to our sen- ators and congressman in Washing ton, D. c. Mrs. Chase Going WodehouSe was most responsive, and has worked diligently to have these contracts restored. Her lat- est telegram is as follows:
 Mir. Vito DeNoia,
 Pres. Non Partisan League, A Hamilton Avenue
 Groton, Conn.
 Jan. 25, 1946
 Excellent possibility submarine contracts will be reinstated. More word tomorrow"
 Chase Going Wodehouse.
 In her earlier communications Mrs. Wodehouse not only attempted to have the contracts restored, but investigated the possibility of other types of work that could be granted the Electric Boat Company. Our congresswoman suggested after careful research, that the matter of the Electric Boat Company going into the construction of prefabri- cated houses be taken up at once by the Non-Partisan League. To quote:
 Meanwhile I would suggest that you bring to the attention of the Electric Boat Company the possi- bi1ity of using their yard for work which will apparently be developed in connection with prefabricated houses. am told that shipyards are admirably adapted for this type of work"
 The Non-Partisans are moving ahead as a strong, civic movement that is interested in all phases and factions that make up the Borough and Township of GrotOn. It cur. ries no favor but works for the common good. It works equally as hard for the interests of business industry or Labor, for 1t knows that one group cannot live without the other.
 At present the Non-Partisans are looking with particular interest at proposed candidates of both the Independent and Republican par ties. It feels that the destiny of a progressive Groton is in the hands of the men who will be elected this year to fill the Borough vacancies Of warden and two burgesses. The most progressive and likely candi- dates will have the backing and aid of the League. Two points they will especially want to see written into the platforms of these candi- dates will be a hospital for Groton, Mitchell Street opened for com merce as a business area, and fieneral program for progress!

Congress Asks Truman To Open Haven to Jews

Washington, D. C.-Both houses of Congress overwhelmingly ap- proved a resolution calling upon the United States government to ''use its good offices" with Great Britain to permit free entry of Jews into Palestine and to estab- fish that country eventually as the Jewish National Homeland.
 The resolution represents an ex- precision of Congressional opinion and is not binding upon the Pres ident, who recently joined with Britain in appointing a joint com- mission to investigate the plight of displaced Jews in Europe. The AFL backed the resolution adopted by Congress.

In response, the company, in a circular distributed to employees, brazenly boasted that it will lose nothing from the walkout.
 Any losses we sustain in 1946 will be made up to us by the gov- ernment out of our profits in 1924 and 1945," the circular declared.
 What the company referred to was that, under the "carry-back" provisions of the tax laws, passed by Congress to facilitate reconver- sion, 1t will be entitled to rebates from Uncle Sam, which will be suf- ficient to take care of any losses 1t may sustain in the next two years.
