4 Dixie States Take No Action
To Prouide Negro Education

NEW YORK (ANP) Four
states, Georgia, South Carolina, Ala
bana, and Mississippi, continue to
deny equal facilities for the higher
education of Negroes within their
borders. They are doing nothing in
the graduate fields.
All the other former components
of the Confederate of America
either has had it's lily white school
laws busted, or Negroes probably
soon will be attending.
Virginia fell just this past week
through a court order after the
school board of visitors had refus-
ed to abide by the attorney gener-
ais advice and had rejected a Ne
gro applicant to the school of law.
Maryland. Kentucky, Arkansas,
Oklahoma, Texas, and Missouri
which began in 1887 when the
state of Missouri lost out. A court
rule in the famous Gaines case .es-
tablished the precedent.
Florida has fallen to a limited ex-
tent on a jimcrow basis through its
Negro college, Florida A and M
college. North Carolina, too, has just
kicked the bucket in an equal edu.
cation suit.
Suits are still pending in Louisi-
ana, and judging by recent fedora
court decisions, this state soon will
be in the bag.
Good legal work with sound foun-
dations has smashed the White
schools stronghold, and liberal folk
in these states see nothing to do
but comply with the inevitable.
1t all started back in 1887 with
the Gaines case in Missouri when
on Dec. II, 1897 a federal court
ruled in favor of Lloyds Gaines who
was seeking admission to the Uni.
versity of Missouri.
The court aid Missouri had to pro-
vide equal facilities for Negroes
within the state" This phrase has
provided the key to future decisions
i'm similar cases. It has ruled out the
regional schools as a substitute for
equal education.
Today, Kentucky has taken the
lead in accepting Negroes. After the
repeal of its Day law it has made
1t possible for any college to admit
Negroes to its student body.
The city-supported Louisville uni.
Verslty is admitting Negroes to all

Queen Creek Tunnel
Job Goes To Fisher
On Bid Of $57o,O7S

If that little-bitty tunnel on
Highway go between Superior and
Miami gave you a case of the
twidgets when you drove through
it, you'd better start figuring how
to get to the Globe-Miami area
some other way. Work is going to
start soon on a tunnel nearly
quarter of mile long.
Bids were opened on the new
Queen Creek tunnel last Friday
and Fisher Construction came in
with the low offer - $579, ,078.02.
Fishers was the lowest of several
bids and was IS per cent under
what the highway department had
figured the job would cost. It was
$4,000 below the next lowest bid.
Fifteen companies figured the job.
The highway commission will
meet In Phoenix on January to
award the contract and Fisher has
announced that it intends to get
buSy-hubba-hubba! The contract
calls for cutting a tunnel through
1,240 feet of solid rock. The bore
will be 40 feet wide and % feet
high. The Fisher company will
build approaches and pave the in
terror roadway. A contract for
lighting the big hole in the noun
tain will be let separately.
The new tunnel, part of brand
new route through the Queen
Creek canyon, takes off just about
above the big water tank and will
come out of the mountain about

where that little mine is in deep
cut nearer the top of the hill. 1t
will do away with a lot of sharp
corners, narrow spots and the little
tunnel on the present grade.
Speaking of mines -there'n be a
lot of amateur prospectors hanging
around that digging job to see what
they can see. The whole mountain
is laced with ore stringers and
Fisher just might open up some
thing worth while during the Is
months it estimates it will take to
finish the job.

Cookies Corner
By MARGUERITE HUNTER

All together now, neighborS!
Let's heave big sigh of relief
that the holidays are over! It was
fun while it lasted but we are all
glad it is over for another fifty
one weeks. And of course we will
all solemnly resolve to start pre-
parations earlier next time. And
we definitely will make our Christ
mas Club payments regularly and
promptly. Eo, hum! So much for
good intentions.
But regardless of the season us
housewives drudge on and on, so
here are a few hints that may help
a bit.
This time of year most of us
cook dried beans and peas often
because of the scarcity and ex-
pensiveness of the fresh vegetables.
Our enjoyment of these foods is
often marred however, because of
the distressing after effects. Here
is a method of cookery which in
most cases prevents such distress
add about half teaspoonful of
soda to the water in which the
beans are boiled. Note: It is better
to omit soda entirely, than to add
too much.
If you are frying and the grease
keeps Sputtering and swapping, put
one-fourth teaspoon of flour in a
sitter and sift into the grease and
the sputtering will stop immedi-
atelyl.
Maybe there is someone in your
family who cannot eat cabbage
without suffering an attack of gas
tritis. Well, this is an infallible
way to prevent it. This method
not only adds to the digestibility of
the vegetable but improves its
flavor and color. Broccoli and
brussel sprouts may be cooked the
same way. And this is an odorless
method.
If you have teakettle put about
a quart of water in it, and the
same amount in your cooking pot
AN enameled-ware pot is prefer
rable, but two ordinary cooking
pots may be used. Cut the cab
bage in quarters or eights; cut
the stalk out entirely leaving all
the leaves free. The outside of
the stalk is fibrous and absolutely
indigestible.
Wash the leaves in cold water.
Put a teaspoon of baking soda in
the enameled-ware pot and bring
the water to a boil. The pot is
left UNCOVERED during the en-
tire cooking period. Boil the cab
bage for three (3) minutes-no
longer. Then strain all the water
off and add the fresh boiling water
from the kettle or pot, first adding
to the quart of water one level
tablespoon of salt. Allow the cab
bage to boil freely until tender.
Then drain. all the water off and
cut into small pieces. Do not add
butter or fat of any kind, but
serve exactly as it is, and you
will find it will have a delicate,
delicious flavor and will be easily
digeSted.
