use. Buy fancy grades of canned
vegetables for table, but cheaper
grades for cooking. The Depart
ment of Agriculture reports that
all three grades of canned goods
(A-B-C) have the same nutritional
value. So grade B is a good choice
-. good for table and not too
expensive for the pot.
(5) Watch for buying oppor-
tunities You can save at sales
and clearances of reputable stores
If you know how and when to
shop.
(6) You can save by buying
large sizes of toilet goods, drugs,
packaged and canned groceries.
% Most times private brands
of large department stores, chain
stores and mail-order house give
you more for the same money
than the expensive brands.
(Sr Consult newspapers and the
radio for daily or weekly reports
on current market buys in pro-
duce. Plan menus two or three
days ahead so you can buy on
basis of best values. Buy produce
that is grown nearby because 1t
is fresher and less expensive.
(9) If possible, don't buy on
credit. Pay cash. You can save
nearly half. Carrying fees usual
ly come to about Is per cent a
year instead of the per cent
most stores tell you.
(10) Buy as little as possible
when prices are at the peak
Wait IL you can for the larger
items. You'll get more for your
money later this year.

SEGREGATION IN

BY Rose Mckee

WASHINGTON Two Negro
leaders told congress last week.
they will organize civil disobe-
dience" movement against military
service If non-segregation pro-
vision is omitted from the draft
and universal military training.
A. Philip Randolph, president of
the American Federation of Labar
Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Por-
tiers, in effect agreed with sena-
tors who said the movement
would be reasonable in wartime.
Randolph commented:
1--WE are willing to face the
music"
Grant Reynolds, New York state
commissioner of correction and a
World War II army chaplain, said
he told President Truman last
week that NEGROES are in no
mood to shoulder a gun for demo-
cracy abroad so long as they are
denied democracy at home.'
Both testified before the senate
armed services cormittes which
is expected to approve the Presi-
dents request for a limited draft
and U. M. T.
Another Negro leader, Truman
Gibson, termed the disobedience
proposals Shocking" Gibson, a
member of the Presidents commits

civil aid to the secretary of war.
said that disobedience was beng
threatened as Bargaining" point
by Negroes seeking legislation to

TEN YEARS AGO

Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Crooks, local
aviators, arrived back in Kenne.
wick after towing new Aeronics
cabin plane in a trailer, behind q
new Ford coupe, that they haG
purchased in Detroit.
The new ship is a two-passeng.
er cabin plane, which will be as.
sembled at the Pasco airport. /,
was carried to Kennewick from
Cincinnati in a trailer, the wings
and landing gear being Grated fol-
the long and tedious trip across the
states to Kennewick.
Crooks will assemble his ship,
and get his flying school started
as soon as he can get his students
lined up again.
Of interest to many localities
which are interested in aviation,
Crooks was Major Crooks of the
US AAF during the recent fracas
and flew many missions over the
Hump" for the Air Transport
Command. At present he is cap
tain for United Air Lines, home
based in Seattle. .s...

The city owns only the orna-

power company from which the
city buys the juice. The city has

Gallup polls show that 10000.

tant group, Stassen is the only
Republican candidate who can
win more votes than Truman.
Roper, the old pollster, comes in
for a fast fashion the subject
Stassen could beat Truman in the
big cities, Dewey couldn't. And
from July to December, Dewey lost
100000 votes, while Stassen gain

Finally-here's the payoff-the
latest Roper study indicates how
Stassen, Truman and Dewey stack
up in electoral votes. Somewhere
along the reading matter. we lost
Taft.
Dewey is ahead in the areas
having 235 electoral votes, while
Truman is ahead in areas having

Stassen is ahead in areas hav-
