Food for Thought

The Press Service of the u. S.
Department of Agriculture has
published an article on the methods
of preserving dry mixes. Because
of the seasonal interest in this
problem, we pass the story on to
you verbatim,
For convenience, variety and
extra nourishment in biscuits, muf-
fins and other quick breads made
at home, many housewives like to
make up their own mixes with dry
milk and keep them handy in the
cupboard.
How long such mixes can be kept
is a question many homemakers
have asked the U. S. Department
of Agriculture.
Cookery specialists of the Bureau
of Human Nutrition and Home
Economics have found that the
mixes they prepared kept well for
six months in closely covered con-
tainers at room temperature-70 to
IS degrees F. These mixes were
made with non-fat dry powder and
with cooking fat, which needs no
refrigeration.
When buying cooking fat for
homemade mixes, the specialists
advise reading the label on the
container to be sure that the fat
does not need to be kept cold. The
label may say, for example: Keep
at room temperature" or Needs
no refrigeration" Bacon fat or
meat drippings, which may be used
promptly and thriftily in other
home cooking, is not suitable for
mixes to keep on the shelf.
Nonfat dry milk-dry skim milk
powder, keeps longer than dry
whole milk.
Very important for good keeping
is tight can or jar, which pro-
tects the mix from absorbing
dampness and from any stray hun
CRY insects.

Hosiery Workers
Seek Back Pay Cut
AS Sales Increase

Philadelphia UPA)-A 20 per-
cent wage increase "to recover the
pay losses resulting from an arbi-
tration decision reducing wages
last April" is being sought by the
American Federation of Hosiery
Workers.
In letter TO the Full Fashioned
Hosiery Manufacturers of America,
an industry-wide association, the
union asked for an immediate
meeting to discuss the wages of
10000 workers who were affected
by the pay slash.
Union President Alexander Nc
Keown challenged the manufactur-
ers to "act in good faith now that
the market conditions which led to
the wage cut are completely re-
versed."
INSTEAD of declining sales, low
er prices, cut-throat competition"
he pointed out, "you now have the
most favorable of situations-ris-
ing prices, expanded demand for
goods, full time operations. Our
members seek only full restitution
of the wage reduction-no more"

Publicity manager Crowef of the
New York Telephone Co. cited an
example Of a story already in type
and ready to run had been killed.
And c. w. Hungerford, aide to
AT&T Vice-president Page, wrote:

commercial managers, we are en-
abled to more or less control items

correspondence found in the
files Of the Bell System Compan-
les" the FEC reported, Indicates
a practice of using advertising
patronage to influence at attitude
of the press towards the telephone
company in connection with rate
matters, and generally to secure
the good will of the press" The
FEC cited instances where ads were
withdrawn because Of an unfavor-
able story or increased because OF
a favorable one.
In his 1850 report to the Senate
committee, union President Beirne
cited many facts from the earlier
FEC investigation. They were
about AT&T's labor relations, their
bargaining practices, their control
of associated companies, and their
general structure.
Beime brought these facts up to
date by supplying instances that
have taken place between now and
then. None of them had changed
he said. AT&T, he contended, is ac-
ting the same way today as it did
then. And he offered examples tc
prove it.
The Senate subcommittee was
set up under the Taft-Hartley act
to investigate labor-management
relations, not publicity techniques.

Union Testimony
On Bell System
Ignored By Press
By BETSY BILANOW

Washington (LPA) = President
Joseph Beirne of Communications
Workers of America testified Aug.
10 to Is before a Senate subcom-
mittee Investigating labor manage
ment relations in the telephone in
dustry. Virtually no stories about
the hearing appeared in the big
city papers. There were none at
all in most of the small-town
papers, even though those papers
received stories from wire services
which covered the hearings. Why
the silence?
Much more space has been given
to similar hearings held by the
same committee. This is the first
investigation of the phone industry
since 1887, when the Federal Com
munications Commission conducted
an exhaustive survey Of the Am
erican Telephone and Telegraph
Co., the monopoly that controls the
phone system in this country.
Testimony from that earlier FEC
investigation says the following
about AT&T:
at appears to be the general
practice of Bell System Companies
to effect personal contacts with
newspaper editors, whenever items
appear which are in any way criti-
cal of the company, in an effort to
influence the attitude and course
of action which editors will take
in the future"
At personnel conference in
1927, publicity managers for the
various Bell Phone companies re-
ported on their activities. Here's
what a few of them said:
A. F. Hareman, publicity man
ager of the Ohio Bell Telephone
Co.: Letters to the editor fire.
quently are shown TO our managers
before published and the name and
addresses of the writers given. In
many cases the letters never are
printed after our side of the story
is told"
General Manager Smith, St.
Louis, Mo-, concerning an article
in the Arkansas Democrat, Little
Rock, Ark: "We consider each ad-
verse item worthy of the most care
full thought in order to set up a
plan to prevent a recurrence OF
similar unfavorable remarks about
the company, its policies, rates or
service. To our way of thinking, the
best possible public relations can
not be built upon a seeming indif-
ference to public criticism. On the
other hand, many a skeptical GUS
toner has been converted to loyal
friend by the proper type of con-
tact"
H. w. easier, assistant vice
president of the New York Tele-
phone Co.: "Mr. O'Connor of the
Southwestern Company, stated that
his company plans to try rate cases
in newspaper offices, that is by
presenting facts to the editors Of
newspapers before the case is pre-
sented to the commission for hear

Assessment PIon
(Continped From Page One)

was our first meeting since the
convention.
Local 80 voted to assess its
members, which number approx
mately $50, $1.00 each and the
amount collected to be matched by
the Local. Many members have
lsignified their intention to donate
more than the assessment. This
money will be in the proper hands
in the very near future.
The auditing committee made
their report of finding the funds
of the local solvent.
There is still a big turnover OF
personnel at the plant. Jobs are
becoming plentiful again and men
refuse to work for a wage which
on an hourly basis is too low to
support families adequately.
The results we are getting at the
plant still aren't as good as can be
expected. This condition isn't alto
gether the fault of the workmen.
Management, when anything goes
wrong, are to prone to blame the
men for their shortcomings. Many
of the brothers have been working
for the company for great many
of the years when our skill and
workmanship was second to none.
They have always given their best
efforts and are continuing to do
so. A little cooperation on manage
ment's part would certainly go a
long way in eliminating many OF
the headaches now confronting u.s.

yesterday all phases of nation

Chance Tor Oxenstjerna, the
great Swedish statesman of the
eighteenth century, is credited
with the wise observation: "lf
mankind only knew with what lit
tie intelligence this world is gov
erned." The man who directed his
nations destinies at the height OF
it's power, knew whereof he spoke.
Things have not improved much,
if any, since Oxenstjerna's days.
Indeed, even a cursory glance over
single days newspaper headlines
and reports serves to reaffirm and
deepen this melancholy truth.
Take for instance the Aug. l.,
1850, issue of a leading eastern
daily, noted for it's excellent re-
ports and judicious judgment. The
following items are reprinted be-
