U. S. FIRE LOSSES SETTING
NEW RECORD

Fire losses in the United States
have reached the staggering total
of $369,276,0OO for the first six
months of 1947, according to
estimates of the National Board
Of Fire Underwriters.
This loss was the result of thou
sands of fires in all parts of the
country, and does not include the
major portion Of the Texas City
destruction, az it will be several
months before the bulk of the
Texas City loss can be adjusted.
The greatest fire loss in any
one month in recent U. S. history
was recorded during the first five
months Of this year. This was in
March, when losses reached the
unprecedented peak of $72,435,O O0i
Losses for the first six months
were PAP per cent higher than for
the same 6-month period last
year, when they totalled 1927. 306,-

EGYPT TELLS U. NJ. SHE
WANTS EVERY BRITISHER
OFF HER SOIL

LAKE SUCESS,L. I. - Egypt
pleaded with the United Nations
Security Council this week to GUST
every British troop off her soil.
Appearing. to the UN to free it
from British Imperialism,
Egyp's Premier Nokrasky Pasha
declared that his country's sever
eighty is at state, besides the fact
that British troops imperil the
peace of the Middle East. British
combated Egypt's startling plea
by citing that British troops were
in the Land of the Nile under a
20 year contract signed in 1886
and therefore the council could do
nothing but dismiss the case.
The Egyptian Premier vehem-
emily replied that Egypt 10 longer
felt bound by the 70 year treaty.
Moreover it was signed under dur
ess and was completely contrary
to the UN Charter. Following the
arguments of the two countries,
he council postponed discussions
for one week wherein delegates

TWO RULES TO OBSERVE
TO PREVENT FOREST FIRES

Because of the particularly dry
winter and spring season and the
great amount of natural resource.
IN forest and woodland in Cali
fornia, Oregon, Washington. Ar
iona, Nevada, Montana and Utah
a grave fire hazard faces the Pa.
qfic Coast region.
More than IT'S 900 forest fires
every year in the United States
consume 25, OOO, 900 acres Of val.
liable timber and watershed-an
area as large as Virginia. This
direct loss to natural resources
amounts to over 5000, 900.
Most forest and brush fires are
preventable. A survey made for
President Truman's Conference
on Fire Prevention held in Wash.
lngton last May showed that al.
most all fires in forests start be-
cause of careless smokers and i'm
properly handled campfires.
Observance of two main rules
would help prevent a large pro-
portion of fires:
l. Don't build campfires except in
designated campground areas.
Make sure you put out your
campfire before leaving it.
2. Don't smoke in forest areas.
Don't throw cigarets from your
automobile.

I7WO Women Operate and
DUN Large Negro Business

1t took just three short years
for two women with an idea and
a dose of determination to turn a
dilapidated brownstone building
into a business serving 10000 GUS
toners a year-the biggest busi-
ness of its kind in the Negro
world.
The women are Olivia Clarke
and Rose Morgan. Theirs is a tale
that reads like it might have come
from a story-book, a story prov
that opportunity is what you
make it.
Mrs. Clarke, a native of Vir-
ginia, studied biology and physical
education at Virginia State, then
earned a Masters Degree from
New York University. She taught
school until tn war came along,
then served three years with the
USO. Afterwards she met Miss
Morgan, who had had long ex-
perience as a beautician and had
operated shops in Chicago and
New York.
Together the two did some
thinking. Why, they reasoned,
shouldn't cosmetics be blended es-
| pecially for the woman with
color? And since beauty is more
than deep, why couldn't the in
' dividual take advantage of the
beauty that comes from a healthy
body?
So they laid plans for a House
Of Beauty that would combine
body care with a especially blend
ed line of cosmetics1cosmetics
they carefully harmonized with
skin shades by working on a por-
celain topped kitchen table, using
a putty knife as a mixing tool.
Once they had worked out their
idea and had samples made to
serve as a guide for later manu-
featuring, the rest Of their sue
cess story was a simple four-let-
ter woodwork.
Their capital was slim, and be-
cause they could get it cheaply,
they rented a Harlem brownstone
which had stood vacant for years.
There was no electrical wiring.
no plumbing and no central heat
ing. Vandals had broken windows.
battered plaster walls, and built
fires in the place. There were huge
holes where floorboards had been
ripped up and you could look
from the fifth floor right down
into the basement.
The landlord was skeptical when
they told him they could fix up
the house. 1t was during the war
and materials were scarce. But by
plugging away night and day,
trudging miles to find things they
needed and workmen to do the
job, they accomplished what they
set out to do. And in 1914, their

are now launching a new venture.
Surveys show that Negro women
spend nearly $500, OOO, 900 a year
on cosmetict with most of it
going for brands prepared for
white skins. They have establish
ed al organization to distribute
to this market the specially blend
ed complete line of cosmetics
which they have pioneered.
They plan to distribute it though
chain stores, department stores,
and Independent retail outlets
where brands Negro women now
us are sold. And they plan to tell
the public about it through an ex.
tensive advertising campaign in
Negro newspapers.
