Queries Answered

By Roger c. Whitmon

Question: During the winter, snow
accumulates on the roof of our
Cape Cod house. The snow melts
and freezes, forming a dam which
accumulates more snow. With the
alternate thawing and freezing,
water works it's way under our roof
at the caves and runs down our
inside wall, discoloring the wall
paper and doing other damage.
The leakage occurs at only one
spot on the north side of the house.
Is there any way in which the ice
can be removed from the roof be-
fore the water backs in under the
caves, or some way to prevent water
from getting into the walls?
Answer: If there is a gutter at
the edge of the roof, it should be
set enough below the line of the

the Mt. Olive Baptist church, can
boast of possessing the slightest
qualifications as people with con-
yictions or discernment. The WV
said it wished to avoid incidents
which would be detrimental to the
community as a WHOLE, and Rev.
Monroe .parroted that his church
"is as much a part of the COM
munity as the YWCA." Latter,
George Bass president Of the
Goodrich local No. S, Of the
United Rubber Workers, CLIO, Of
fered Hughes the use of his hall,
but he recanted when pressure
was brought to bear on him.
Hughes himself declared that
he was not a communist, that the
pressure stemmed from Gerald l..
X. Smith in Detroit, who threat
ened to picket the hall, but failed
to go through with it. The Akron
Council of Race Relations had
planned to sponsor the meeting.
It is an alarming situation,
more so, when you consider the
three organizations that refused
permission for him to speak. The
YWCA, the Negro church and
the trade union are three organ
izations in America that have
dared stand up against the re-
dictionary tide that would straight
jacket the country. They should
have known better than to sue
cumb to the red batting pressure
of reaction. :
I think it would be an excel
