has said of FEPC: "This is the
beginning of Communistic die
tatorship the like of which America
never dreamed" Have you ever
worked in CIO-PAC? THE I'm
American Committee has said:
"The Clio Political Action Com
mittee represents in it's main out
lines subversive Communist cam
paign to subvert the Congress OF
the United State to it's totalitarian
program"
The philosophy of the Mundt
Bill is taken over lock, stock and
barrel from the Hitler-TojoM Mus
solini anti-comintern pact, which
justified every Nazi or Japanese
act of barbarism as being de-
Tense against world communist
conspiracy" Ohe lesson for us

The Mundt Bill to control Sub
versive activities" passed the
House of Representatives III
three days of debate-May IA, is
and lr. The atmosphere OF the de-
bate would have done credit to
Hitler's Reichstag. Rankin had a
field day to attack the Jews, the
Negroes, and everyone who crltl-
cized the Un-American Committee
The UE was singled out for smear
attack by an Evansville, Ind. Con-
gresham who told his UE con-
stituents to ego to hell; I'm gong
to vote for the bill!'
1t is a sad commentary on the
two old parties that only 8 Repub-
licans and AZ Democrats stood up
against bill which would put the
us. Constitution in a concentra-
ton camp. The chief leadership
against the bill was supplied by a
third party" the American Labor
PARTY of New York whose Con-
gressmen Marcantonio and lsac-
son were in there pitching all the
way.
Majority UncOncerned
The vast majority of Congress
me nshowed by their vote for the
bill. or their failure to vote galnst
it, that they have no concern TO
defend the precious liberties OF our
democracy against native fasclsm
This is a bill which makes it IL
legal to disagree with a Rankin or
a Thomas or Mundt = gentle
men who served Hitler's cause
we'll and hate everything decent
in the USA. Everything which
these gentlemen oppose is declared
to be communistic and therefore
illegal, punishable by fines up t.

Sewing With Leather Is Fun

which go between the fingers Of
the glove. Mrs. Woods has q num-
Der of these temples" cat in vari-
ols sizes.
Individual Fits
When she makes a pair Of gloves
she draws an outline of the pur-
chaser's hand ora paper, o. has the
purchaser send such an outline. She
then makes any necessary adjust
ments on the pattern nearest that
size. 1t surprised me 10 learn that
practically everyone's thumb is set
differently on the handsome high
up toward the forefinger, others low
near the wrist. BY $ of the out
line drawn upon paper, the gloves
may be made to fit each individual
hand. Care must be used in laying
the pattern so that the leather
stretches" m the right direction,
that is, crosswise of the palm.
Mrs. Woods uses only chrome
tanned leather in making the gloves.
Leather finished thus is soft and
.pliable; it may be washed as easily
as a pocket handkerchief and is new
e stiff or harsh when dried. Be-
cause leather has been scarce, 1t has
not always been possible to obtain it
from adjacent tanneries. However,
since Mrs. Woods lives in big game
country, she has been able to pur-

Vanity Cases

Some small, round vanity cases
she made recently seem to be work
ing out well. These she lines with
plastic material such as is used for
shower curtains, and sometimes she
makes two pockets in the lining, one
for powder puff, the other for rouge.
There rs room as well for lipstick
and perhaps a small mirror. These
cases close neatly with a small zip
per and take up little room in pocket
or handbag, with the added advan-
tage of being light as a feather.
1t is probable that from time to
time Mrs. Woods will design other
items which will work ap beauti-
fully through the medium of leather.
So far she. has been so busy with
her glove orders that she feels she
has hardly scratched the surface in
the discovery of articles which may
be manufactured at home from this
versatile and durable material. And,
81 she insists, IT'S really fun TO sew
with leather.

ers IN the vicinity during the fall
season, and these she sends to the
tanneries to have tanned.
Special Sewing Machine
An electric sewing machine made
especially for stitching leather was
Mrs. Woods first and largest invest
ment. These machines average only
slightly higher in cost than any
other electric sewing machine. The
stitching on the backs of the gloves
is usually done by hand.
Tailor's shears are also a necessity
for cutting the leather. There is a
'sknack" 10 cutting leather which
one acquires through practice; it is
well to begin by cutting scrap pieces,
thus learning how to hold the goods
with just the right amount of ten
sion TO make a straight, even cut.
OF late Mrs. Woods has begun
perimenting with other items and
has had particularly good luck with
house slippers which she has de-
signed herself. Here, TOO, is where
the leather punch goes TO work, both
in decorating the slippers and IN
making holes through which TO run
the leather lacings. Elk or calf hide
is especially good for slippers, and

Entry rules and any additional in

Montana and Wyoming are both

Vitamins have had the spotlight
for the past few years. Food experts
talked about them; researchers
studied them; doctors prescribed
them. Even producers of livestock
were concerned about them.
Vitamins are still important, but
the spotlight of interest has moved
away from them. Now it is she'd
ding its glamorous light on the food
element called protein.
This is a good thing, too. Protein
is important in many ways. 1t is
the body-builder among the food
elements that r necessary for all
life. Even plant growers are cor
eerned about protein. The soil, say
these specialists, must provide the
growing plant with protein-making
elements. Otherwise the plants do
not make the best food, either for
animals or for human beings.
Almost all foods contain some
protein. Some foods, such as fruits,
contain only small amounts; others,
such as meats and eggs, contain
large amounts. Still others, like
wheat and oatmeal and corn, con-
tain generous amounts.
Proteins are different in quality.
Those in plant foods, such as wheat
or beans or peas, r good. Those In
animal foods, like meat and milk
and eggs and cheese are excellent
The way to get the most protein fol
your money, say the food experts, i:
70 combine foods that are high in
plant protein with those that are
high in animal protein.
The rural family should be tn,

these essential foods are easil
available TO the farm family.

Not a Difficult Art
Glove making, MRS. Woods main
tains, is no more difficult than other
forms of dressmaking or tailoring.
1t is necessary, however, to first take
lessons from someone experienced
in the work. Mrs. Woods served her
apprenticeship" by first sewing for
her neighbor, Mrs. Jim Browne, who
has achieved considerable recogni-
ton as designer and stylist of leath-
CT wearing apparel. Smart shops
throughout the western dude ranch
country feature Mrs. Brownies erea-

edge of leather work to Mrs. Woods
she found an apt pupil.
