COOKING TONGUE;
HINTS; QUERY?
(Fron, Mrs. ID. r. G.,
WdSHinQtOn.J

WGSHtngtOHJ
For Mrs. r. o. s.: My mother
recently cooked a whole tongue
which was, I think, what you
want. Buy a whole fresh tongue
from your butcher and marinade
it in the refrigerator for 10 days
in solution of salt. saltpeter and
water and cover. Wash the tongue
we'll before starting. Use between
u and l pound of salt, depending
upon how salty you like it. About
10 cents worth of saltpeter from
your druggist should be enough.
After the 10 days drain of the
salt solution and wash the tongue
well in cool water. Cook for two
hours in enough water to COM
pletely cover it in a large pan with
a well-fitting lid. This next step
is matter of taste. We like
tongue cooked in plain water. but
you may want to add some season.
ing. In that case put in the cook
ing water l garlic Glove (whole).
two or three whole cloves and q
good dash of allspice.
Now for a few helpful hints.
We keep our bathroom soap in
a plastic soapbox without cover)
in the tile soapholder. That way
the tile holder Is not so hard to
clean.
For red ants. get a 2 per cent
chlordaine spray from any ex-
terminator. This will not kill the
ants but they carry the poison
back to the eggs and kill them.
We suffered with them from June
until October one year, spraying
whenever we saw the ants. We
haven't had any in two years
now.
One question. I have two lovely
embroidered Chinese silk scarfs.
When I washed them Gin cool
water without salt) the en-
broidered colors ran all over the
white silk. Is there any way that
I can remove the faded streaks.
and If not. Is there anything I
can use to remove all the color
from the embroidered design with
out making the white silk turn
yellow?

PARSNIP LEAVES?

(From Mrs. w. M, WashingtonJ
I would greatly appreciate any
advice on keeping parsnip leaves.
I would like to put the leaves in
a lar and use when needed. Would
they rot? Should they be hr-
drafted?
The leaves give chicken soup

Hompton's New President

Hampton Institute, down in Tidewater
Virginia, has undergone many changes
since its founding after the Civil War by
General Samuel Chapman Armstrong. But
It's policy of helping Negroes to "learn by
doing" has remained the same throughout
the colleges eighty-one years of service to
Negroes and to the Nation Now Hampton
has made another change. It has installed
an alumnus as its president-the first
Negro to head the noted college, He is DR..
Alonzo G.. Moron. And he has made It
plain that the policies which have made
Hampton the great institution 1t is will
be continued.
In investing DR.. Moron with the robes
OF office, DR.. Charming H. Tobias, chair
man Of the Board of Trustees, said that
Hampton, as in the past, will emphasize
the practical side" Of education. Thus,
It's students will be taught not only the
fine arts, but will be given vocational train
ing OF type designed to fit them to make
their way in the world proudly and sue
cessfully. The institute can point to many
alumni besides DR.. Moron as proof that it's
program is worthwhile like Booker
T. Washington and Robert Russa Notion,
who have distinguished themselves and
their race after graduation from Hampton.
The students at Hampton are fortunate to
have as their leader a member Of their
race stepped in the Washington Motion
traditions and dedicated to the task of
making Hampton serve the Negro people
more effectively than ever before.

support Of his own. Secretary Of Labor
Tobin, who twice defeated Mr.. Curley for
Mayor, but who had joined forces with
him to campaign for President Truman's
election, took the stump for Mr.. Hynes in
the'flnal hours of the electioneering. And
a lot of proper Bostonians who have been
fighting "Curleyism" for many years added
their weight to the Hynes movement The
outcome of this non-partisan contest has
no political significance outside OF Boston,
except to the extent that it may portend
a final breaking up of the Curley organiza-
ton and realignment of factions within
the Democratic Party there. The Curley
faction in the past often has held bal
ance Of power that was felt far beyond
the limits of the city.

Boston Shokes OFF CurIeyism

To those who do not know Boston politics,
the defeat of Mayor James Michael Curley
for reelection will occasion little surprise.
For, to put it indelicately, Mayor Curley
is an ex-convict having served five months
Of his current mayoral term in Federal
penitentiary for mail fraud. But to Bos-
tonians who have witnessed the amazing
ups and downs mostly ups-of what they
call @curleyisn" in the Massachusetts
capital, it is hards to believe that Jim
Curley's power over the city finally has
been broken.
In fact, many supporters of the victori-
Gus city clerk, John B. Hynes, had no great
confidence that their man would garner
enough votes to Offset the still -functioning
Curley machine. Their hopes would have
been even fainter had they known that
Mayor Cufley was due to draw more votes
. than in any OF his previous five elections
as Mayor. Yet Mr.. Hynes, the career en-
ployee from City Hall, who never had run
for an elective Office In his life emerged
with 138, ,780 votes nearly thirteen thou
sand more than the veteran Mayor.

toners of the Washington Gas Light
Company to learn that their hopes for
cheaper gas as result Of the changeover
from manufactured to natural gas are not
to be realized. Instead, GA per cent
increase in rates has been approved by
the Public Utilities Commission-an in
crease to the average home consumer Of
whether gas is used for heating as well
as cooking. Yet 1t is a fact that it costs
less to supply Washington with natural
gas than it did to manufacture the city's
gas supply. ..
The reason Tor this anomalous situation
Is to be found in the PuCs explanation Of
its order for higher gas charges. Although
the cost Of natural gas, including amor
tization Of property loss involved in the
changeover and costs Of conversion, Is
per cent less than the 1889 cost of manu-
featuring gas, labor and other costs since
the war have more than offet the savings.
As result, the PUG found, the company's
earnings have dropped below 4 per cent,
q return which the PUG describes as "obvi-
ously inadequate to maintain the company
in sound financial position"
The PUG properly is concerned with
maintaining the financial stability of
public utilities, for it is in the public
interest to do so. Unless utility Is oper-
ating on sound business basis it cannot
be expected to render the type of service
to which its customers are entitled. The
Gas Light Company contended that at
least 100000 in additional revenues is
needed to place the firm on sound oper-
ating basis for the ensuing year. But the
PUG pointed out that the rates proposed
by the company to obtain such revenues
were predicated or gas consumption during
1948, year marked by relatively mild
winter and hence by abnormally low con-
sumption of gas for heating. A more
normal year, PUG experts held, would pro-
duce more. than the 100000 which the
company said 1t needed.
While the commission agreed that the
company's operating revenues were. too
low, 1t did not allow the company the
income 1t requested. The new rates are
designed to provide approximately $750, 900
additional year. This sum may be in
creased as the number of gas users in the
city increases And if this winter should
prove to be an unusually cold one, the
revenues will rise accordingly. Under pres
ent policies any substantial increase in
revenues, exceeding fair return, will be
distributed to consumers in the form of
rate reduction-a dim prospect now, ac-
cording to the authorities.

Good Fuith-ond Bod

JOnn l.. Lewis says that he has ordered
his soft coal miners back to work until
November 80 as IAN act of good faith
designed to contribute to public conven-
ience." .Spokesmen for the coal mine
operators say that he was forced to do
this to keep his union from disintegrating"
because Of the 'hardships imposed on the
miners by the strike, and also as tactical
move to forestall Government intervention.
It would be difficult to say which is the
correct version. Perhaps there is some
truth in all three. It Is also possible that
this Is simply another move in the kind
OF economic war. of nerves which Mr.. Lewis
has waged with considerable success in
the past
But the real motive behind this latest
Lewis move is of less Importance than the
question OF what is going to happen after
November 80. BY that time we will be we'll
into the winter. It certainly will not be
possible in the intervening three weeks to
build up any substantial reserve stocks of
coal. And If Mr.. Lewis winks his eye, or
snaps his fingers, or coins a new phrase,
and II the miners thereupon should obedi-
emily go out on strike again, the country
Will speedy find itself right back In the
middle of serious emergency.
The President ought not to permit that
to happen. He has been patient with
MIR. Lewis perhaps too patient. The boss
OF the mine union has not yet laid his
cards on the table and said just what it
Is that he wants. But the fair inference.
judging from unofficial reports, is that his
demands are exorbitant There certainly
is more than little reason to believe that
he Is trying to dodge around any immediate
invocation Of the Taft-Hartley Act and
then call another strike in December,
when he can make the public suffer If he
cannot impose his demands on the in
dustry.
This form Of blackmail can be prevented,
at least for eighty day, if the President will
invoke the Taft-Hartley Act. It is not
likely that Mr.. Lewis would fiout another
court injunction. Only last Monday the
Supreme Court, in effect, upheld the
$4,000 fine imposed on MIR. Lewis person.
ally and the $1,400000 fine levied on the
union for his second defiance of the Federal
courts. Mr.. Lewis may be slow to learn
AA1 ooAA1e eAAAAtsS, put 1ic Is IOt> SLOW enough
to hun and puff at the Federal courts
again. II renewed strike brings another
emergency, the invocation of the Taft
Hartley law can keep the miners at work
for another eighty days. This is a poor
way to settle a labor dispute And 1t may
be a politically distasteful procedure for
Mr.. Truman to adopt. But 1t is better than
letting the people suffer through the winter
without coal. -.
