tailed $3,e62,1 ,180 in fiscal 1949, an
increase of almost "a per cent

amount of the grant in all types
of public assistance during fiscal
1949. first by a per cent
reduction in total requirements
of each recipient and later by a
IL per cent reduction in the
amount of the grant.
Pressure Is Cited.
"The Public Assistance Division
has been subject throughout the
year to great pressure brought
particularly by persons who had
lost their jobs and were in need,
possibly only temporarily but who
are ineligible under present regu-
lations, and from recipients who
find it most difficult to get along
on a reduced grant" the city
heads were informed.

Well Folks
Did you know that wine is made
today in practically the same way
as it was made in prehistoric
times? OF course, they have made
many improvements in the methods
used in bottling and preserving.
These are all to your advantage.
And, as time passes, we will see
more and more people drinking
wine. Not as the sO-called "wine-
o" drinks wine to get gloriOusly
drunk, but in a sane, sober way,
as a sociable drink-a drink of
moderation. The main reason for
that, will of course, be the reason
able price of wine. Our best Ameri-
can wines are comparatively cheap,
and they compare very favOrably
with European wines, in fact, in
most instances, they are better.
So-o-o-O, the next time you feel
like having q little drink or two
with your friends, don't hesitate
to offer them wine, either straight
or as q mixed drink. Wine and soda
is always acceptable. If you are in
doubt as to what wine to serve or
how to serve it, we at REDDY'S
CORNER are always willing to
make suggestions and we usually
have several recipe folders and
pamphlets on hand, we are glad to
give you. Don't hesitate to ask for
them. They are yours for the ask
ing!

When the spy trial OF Judith
Coplon enters its fourth week in
District Court tomorrow Q small
woman with dark hair and
white, anguished face VIII slip un-
obstrusively into q chair near the
defendant and steel herself fol
another ordeal.
She is Mrs. Rebecca Coplon, So
mother of the attractive, sus-
pended Justice Department anal
yst who allegedly pilfered Vita
National security secrets with the
intent of injuring her own coun-
try and aiding foreign power.
In the crowded courtroom
throughout the past three weeks
the brunette defendant has been
viewed with mixed emotions, but
her mother without exception has
captured the sympathy Of specta-
tors. the press and the prosecut-
ing staff.
Weeps Occasionally.
With lowered head, she ner-
vously twists her hands through
out the day and from time to time
tears well into her eyes as she
hears Omen tell how her daugh-
ter was trailed TO three rendezvous
with Valentine A. Gubitchev, the
Soviet engineer with whom she
was arrested.
Sometimes I think my heart
will break" Mrs. Coplon said
when they tell about arrestins
her and then taking her dowr
to their headquarters and dis
robing her. How dare people de
such things to a child?
Il know they are lying. Judy
has told me the truth and I know
they are just telling lies"
Mrs. Coplon's happy. sheltered
life tumbled about her ears the
night of March 4 when her daugh.
ter failed to come home. She wa.
married 80 years ago, and hel
first child, q son. Bernard. wa.
born a year later. Her daughter
will celebrate her 28th birthday
on May II.
Waited for Call.
Judith had told us she wa,
going to have dinner with a frienc
that night and would be home al
10 o'clock" she continued. "Wher
she didn't call I waited until II

II couldn't sleep that night and
about 6 o'clock In the morning q
man called and asked II she was
there. I don't know who he was
a reporter. I suppose. He said he
was a friend. but he wouldn't tell
us where Judith was. The strang-
est thought came into my mind
then. I felt she had been in q
train wreck and killed and he
didn't want TO break the news to
us. I pleaded with him to tell US
what had happened. but he just
advised us to call our son.

8 o'clock and told us they were

deep yellow color is most desir-

In bananas, good eating quality
is indicated by the yellow color
of the skin flecked with small
brown specks. At this stage the
flesh is mellow and the flavor
fully developed.
Bananas with tips still green
may do for cooking, but are not
desirable for eating raw. Select
fruit that is plump, or well filled
out. as this indicates the banana
was mature when removed from
the plant. .
Avacados should be heavy and
have a fresh green appearance.
Those which are fairly firm or are
just beginning to soften are
usually the most desirable.
Texture of flesh of the avocado
should be soft, buttery or narrow
like. Some avacados have skins OF
a marred, light brown coloring,
but this does not effect the quail
ty of the flesh.
Cranberries are of good quality
if they have a fresh plum appear
ance, high luster and firmness.
Poor quality is shown by shrivel-
ing, dull appearance and softness.
High quality for the variety
usually indicates good flavor and

grapes. White or green grapes are
usually at their best for flavor
when they are turning to an am

few Varieties remain green in
color when fully ripe.

Trumun's So-CuIled Mandate"

We are a little tired of hearing so much about Presi-
dent Truman's so-caned mandate" from the people. Mr.. Iru-
man and many others seem to feel his election was a Gear
mandate to have the Federal government take over more
powers and controls from the states and further encroach
upon their sovereign power. -.
Our President seems to feel a big program OF social
zation is in order to answer this mandate" from the people
If our people give consideration to the vote cast In
the last presidential election, they will realize Mr.. Truman,d did
not even get a majority of all the votes cast in that election
The combined vote of all other candidates was greater
than Mr.. Truman's popular vote. In other words, more people
voted for the other candidates than voted for MIR. truman
This should be enough to shut up all talk about q
mandate for anything.
We, for one, do not believe the people of the United
States want socialized medicine, more and more government
debt and more taxation to pay for social and sociahstic ex-
periments, and certainly by implication, less and less free
dom and Independence. u
What has made this country the greatest in the world
has been the character, individual effort, and initiative Of
It's citizens in a system of private enterprise that has PAID
off with the highest standard of living in the world for the
largest number of our people.
When we get so sorry we have to depend on the Fede-
raj government to born us and then care for us until we go
10 the grave, we will be in worse shape than any OF the poor
countries of Europe, India or Asia.
For we were once a proud, free, self-supportlng, indie
pendent people. idAsAxakk
