Down on Jim Grow

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. AMP
The executive committee. of the
missouri Negro Interscholstic
Athletic association has voted un-
animously to turn down an invi-
tation to join the Missouri State
High School Activities ~associat-
ion because of MSHSAA's anti
Negro policy.
The MSHSAA has opened it's
membership to Negro schools, but
Negro schools are barred from
track NETS, state basketball tur-
ney, state golf meets and all state
athletic events. The MSHSAA has
set up so-called "separate-but-
equal" meets for the Negroes.
An estimated SO high schools
belonging tothe Negro group have
refused to affiliate with the Jim
crow outfit. However, six Negro
schools : : all from st. Louis : :
recently left the Negro organiza-
tionto join MSHSSA in order to
play white schools during the re-
gular season. The boiling Negro
schools are Summer, Vashon,
Washington Tech, Kinloch, st.
Charles and Webster Grove.
The Negro organizations execu-
tive board approved a motion per-
hitting member organizations to
join the MSAHAA only when
they are given complete equality
with other athletic teams.

While the u. s. Congress has post
poned until 1850 debate on the
45,OOO,0 900 asked by President
Truman to initiate the Point Four
program, the World Bank has been
surveying the resources of the So
called darker" nations of the
world, the underdeveloped nations.
These are the nations which will
ultimately receive technical assist
ance from international agencies
for economic development.
On Aug. 10, the bank granted a
loan of $34,O0O,OOO to India for
the reconstruction and develop
ment of the railways owned and
operated by the state. The proceeds
Of this loan will be used to fin
ance part Of the purchase price
of locomotives, boilers and spare
parts. The loan will help to rehab-
ilitate and improve midas trans
port system, a key factor in her
entire economy, and thus to ALI
eviate her balance of payments
difficulties.
A month later, on Sept. 81, the
bank further granted $1O,OO0,0OO
to India for the improvement of
agricultural production. The pro-
ceeds of this particular loan will
be used to finance part of cost of
agricultural machinery needed for
the reclamation of lands infested
with a weed know as exams
grass, and for the clearing of
jungle lands.
The loan will help to increase
production Of grain and thus to
reduce the food deficit which con-
stitutes one of the most critical
problems facing India today. Ger
eals are the basic. food of her
large population. Specifically
speaking, the banks loan will fin
ance the dollar cost Of the recla-
nation program, amounting to
$8,750,000, for the purse in the
United States of 345 heavy tract
ors, ancillary equipment and spare
parts. The total capital outlay for
reclamation and subsequent cult
walton of these lands, the major
part of which will be financed by
India out Of her own rupee and
sterling resources, amounts to the
equivalent of $24,90O,OO0.
According to bank officials, rep
resentatives of the British and
French Colonial offices have been
seeking information. As early as
March, 1913, a representative of
the United Kingdom Colonial Of
flee Informally discussed with the
bank the possibility of bank fin
ancing for development operations
in British colonies and dependent
territories.
Some of the policy questions in
volved in loans for colonial pro-

jects were explored in preliminary
fashion at that time. Further in
formal conversations took place in
London in July of this year. An
initial loan to the Colonial De-
velopment corporation to assist in
financing it's equipment needs to
the end of 1850 may be negotiat-
ed shortly.
The British Overseas Food cor
poration : = another corporation
established under the Overseas Re-
sources Development act, 1913,
but independent of and separate
from the Colonial Development
corporation has also indicated
it's interest inobtaining a bank loan
to finance the purchase of ground
clearing and agricultural machin-
cry in connection with a project
for raising ground, nuts in East
Africa.
Likewise there have been some
informal discussions in Washing
ton and Paris between the bank
and the French authorities, with
regard to the possibility Of loans
for development projects in the
French colonies. The French gov
eminent has brought a number Of
projects to the banks attention,
but active consideration Of them
abs awaited resolution of certain
broad policy questions.
Ethiopia has similarly been
carrying on discussions with the
banks representatives. In Febru-
airy, 194s, a representative of the
government Of Ethiopia presented
informally to the bank of the gov
ernment's projected development
program, which included a wide
range of projects, particularly in
the field of transportation. The
bank requested certain general
economic data to serve as the
basis for more detailed discussions.
A visit to Ethiopia by the banks
representative in the Middle East
inthe Fall of 1913, and the pre-
sence in Washington of an advisor
tothe Ethiopian government at
the end OF the year, provided OPP
portunities for further consersa-
tons of a general character. No
character. No loan discussions
have yet begun pending receipt of
of the economic information which
the government has undertaken to
compile.

prised how good it is and how
after making it time or two
you will never bother with meas
uring spoons. Just a little Of
this and that adds up to some
thing good. Tear the lettuce into
chunks, don't cut it before adding
the dressing.
An apple and crushed pine
apple salad is very good this time
of year. I'll give away one OF
my cooking secrets. When peel
the apples drop the quarters into
cold water to which q little salt
has been added. As soon as all
are peeled. remove drain, and
dice the apples. The salt keeps
the apples from becoming dis

Whether you dance this charm
ing dance or enjoy it in a strictly
inactive capacity this album should
prove satisfying. The tango, by
the way, did not originate in
Spain, according to album annota-
tor Alma Kraushaar. Now 300
years old, the dance is actually
a direct descendant of the country
dance of the 17th century Eng
land.
This same dance with modifica-
tions in step and name, travelled to
France, to Spain, to Cuba and
back to Spain. where. by the time
of the Spanish American War, it
was close to the form it took in
the Goth century.
When the tango took root in
Argentina, incidentally, it played
much the same part that jazz
played here in it's early days. In
the case of the tango, 1t was the
child of the back streets of Buenos
Aires. The early part Of 1914 saw
the tango craze here. And al
though the two step ousted 1t as
the favorite, it is still adored by
those who know how to do it.

BUILDING HOUSE.

| fFrom Mrs. M. S., LuurelD
For Mrs. j. j. r., jr., re housing
problem to buy or not to buy:
Here Is an idea for you; maybe it
won't suit you, but 1t is what we
did. my husband. self and three
children. 8, 6 and 2. We bought
a house that had to be torn down
to make way for a parking lot.
My husband, with the help of all
the relatives he could scout up,
did the work. Then we bought
five acres of land out here in the
country and moved out in Sep
tember into a tent. While the
weather is warm. living in tent
Is lots of fun. but, of course, we
had some cold weather in it be-
cause we were in it until about
the middle of November. With
the help of relatives and anybody
else who would give free labor, the
only requirement being good
meals, we dug our basement and
built it of cinder blocks, and now
are living in the basement. 1t is
38 by 26la feet and we heat it
with coal stove in one end and
a wood range in the other end,
with stovepipe out the window.
We didn't have time to build
chimney because cold weather had
come. And don't think it has been
easy, because it hasn't, but if you
are willing to forego leisure and
some comforts of city life, you
certainly can do it. We haven't
electricity in yet and we don't
have a we'll. I go in the car about
half mile down the road and
get the water in 5-gallon and
8-gallon milk cans. We made our
roof fiat so that we can build on
the rest of the house as soon as
spring comes. or start to build it.

ell-Shod Feet for Spring

No women in the world are Al
beautifully and as cheaply shod a.
American women. This is due. o1
course, to our more than efficient
mass production methods.
The fundamentals of shoes
however. most women do not
bother to understand. Very few
will question the salesman about
construction, fit or type of shoe
that will be best for them.
For the benefit of those who are
interested in the subject of shoes
other than just as to color. price,
ETC., the following is a glossary of
a few words used in discussing
shoe fitting and styling. Some i'm
portant parts of a shoe are:
SOLE-The complete bottom
part of the shoe, except the heel
VAMP-The complete lower part
Of a shoe upper which is attached
to the sole or welting. Most i'm
portant part of the upper. the
vamp must possess fine appear
ance and durability. It Is cut from
the best parts Of the skin which
has been made into leather.
HEEL-The heel Is the solid
part projecting downward from
the back part Of the sole Of a boot,
shoe or slipper.
When you are shopping for
shoes check to see that the heel
seat Of the shoe is shaped so as
to accommodate the broad base
Of the heel. The contour of the
heel should be shaped to insure a
snug fit around top OF shoe at heel.
The shoe should fit snugly and
smoothly under the arch. Shoe
patterns should be selected for low
or high insteps to permit comfor~
table fit. The ball joint should
rest in the widest area of the fore
part of the shoe.
The vamp seam should not be
over the ball joint. There should
be sufficient width allowed across
the ball Of the foot to allow for
spread Of feet in motion. The
shape Of the last should conform
Evening star., 1949-02-25

to the shape Of the forepart Of
the shoe.
The toe shape should conform
to the shape Of the toes. The great
toe should lie out straight. Roomy
in the toes and snug in the heel.
we are told, is a good shoe rule to
follow.
A few other shoe facts include:
one, that you should never wear
the same pair of shoes two days
in succession. Also. you should
wear the right type Of shoes for
every activity.
