Summer Fruits Will Be Gone All Too Soon
By Violet FouIkner

} At the beginning of summer
we're lulled into sense of false
security we always think the
long, lazy days stretch endlessly
ahead. But all too soon there
comes a day when the air has a
!, tinge of fall in it. That's the time
when many homemakers suddenly
realize that the wealth of summer
fruits have come and gone but
their jelly shelves are still stand
ing empty.
i If this happened to you. don't
despair, you have a last chance to
| stock the shelves for winter. That
great jelly making favorite the
|, grape still remains.
This recipe for grape conserve
is a prime favorite in many
homes. It's rich with fully rip
ened grapes. crisp nuts. raisins
and lemons. Grape and plum
combined makes wonderful
combination, too. Pears, another
) plentiful fall fruit, also teams
we'll with the popular grape
Every fruit will jell these days
If accurate jelly making recipes
are used.
Because it's the end of summer
when the garden yields its last
harvest I've included a recipe for
pepper hash. This spicy condi-
ment is made up of just peppers,
onions. water, vinegar and sugar.
And it's the perfect accompani-
ment for meat. poultry and fish.
If you use green and red peppers.
the pepper hash is more colorful,
but the red peppers are not neces-
sary for the taste.

struction of the Japanese race"

in the form of a statement broad
cast by the Peiping radio.
THE Chinese Peoples Republic"

innate and void because it was
prepared, drafted and signed with
out participation of this country,
and We can never recognize it."

to the security of the Peoples Re-
public of China and many other

The two acts in question make
it a misdemeanor for the proprie-
tor of any restaurant, hotel, ice
cream parlor, soda fountain, bar
ber shop, or bath house to refuse
services to any respectable, we'll
behaved person, without regard to
the latter's race, color, or previTus
condition of servitude. Violation is
punishable by $1OO fine and for
feiture of license for one year.
The case arose out of the re-
fuSal of one of the chain reStau-
rants operated here by the John
r. Thompson Company to serve
three colored persons on July u,
1850, solely because they were col
ored. The restaurant chain was
charged with violation of the acts.
In Municipal Court, Judge Frank
H. Myers dismissed the charges on
the grounds that the acts had been
repealed by subsequent legislation.
On appeal, the three judges of
the Municipal Court of Appeals
reached differing conclusions.
Chief Judge Nathan Cayton
found that both the 1872 and the
Arizona sun., 1951-09-28

1873 acts were valid when en-
acted and had not been repealed.
Judge Brice Clagett held that the
1872 act had been repealed by the
1873 act, but that the latter act
was valid and still in effect. Judge
Andrew M. C. Hood, dissenting,
thought that both acts were in
valid from the beginning.
The effect of the decision OF the
Municipal Court of Appeals was
to uphold the 1873 act but not the
act of 1872.
The restaurant chain appealed
to the United States Court of Ap-
peals, contending that both acts
were invalid when enacted and, in
the alternative, that both have
subsequently been repealed. The
District of Columbia filed a cross
appeal, contending that not only
the 1873 act but the 1872 act as
well is valid and still in effect.
Solicitor General Philip B. Perl
man decided to intervene in behalf
of the Federal Government, as a
friend of the court, because the
problem of racial discrimination
in the District of Columbia, the
Nations Capital, is a matter OF
serious concern to the people OF
the entire county and not merely
those who live in this area
In the brief filed in the appeals
court last Thursday by Mr.. Perl
man and two of his assistants, the
Justice Department points out that

"Racial discrimination in Wash

Importance in conveying a mis-
leading impression Of American
life. The treatment of colored per-
sons here is taken as the measure
of our attitude towards minorities
generally"
A footnote explains that many
of the representatives of foreign
governments are not white and
quotes the following from the re-
port of President Truman's Civil
Rights Committee: Foreign Off
Gals are often mistaken for Amer
lean Negroes and refused food,
lodging and entertainment. How
ever, once it is established that
they are not Americans, they are
accommodated"
The question of law involved in
the case is whether the Acts en-
acted by the Legislative Assembly
of the District of Columbia on
June 20, 1872, and June 26, 1873,
are valid laws which have not been
repealed.
The two acts were enacted soon
after the Thirteenth and Four
teenth Amendments were written
into the Constitution in order to
assure the newly freed slaves that
they stood free and equal before
the law. They supplemented the
/ constitutional guarantees.
