ORANGE STAINS;
CANNED EIGS2


(Frona Mrs. r. H. r., Frederick
To the young mother who asked
about the removal of orange stains
in baby clothes. My baby is now
3R months old and all his clothes
are white as new. I just wash
everything by hand. using mild
flakes and rinse all 8 times in
warm water. For any orange
stains use plenty of the above soap,
rubbing lightly by hand and use
very hot water. Also, if she is
fortunate to have an outside
clothes line, these stains freeze
out equally well. have never
bleached or boiled any of the
baby's clothes.
Does any one know why the
figs I canned this past season have
an earthly flavor? Never had this
before and am anxious to know the
cause.
Also can any one give me recipes
for using same in cooking, since
it would be so wasteful to discard
them.

fFrona Mrs. M. H., Washington
Quite a while ago read in the
RICH recipes that were salt free
at that time I had no use sfol
them, but now since my mother
has. to follow such a diet will you
please publisl. more of such diets
Meats are her delight with the
exception of pork.

CONTRIBUTE TO
FLA. NAACP

LAKELAND, Fla. - One of the
interesting features of the Lily
Whites Grand Assembly, which
was held here recently, was an
address by Harry T. Moore, ex-
ecutive of the Florida NAACP
State Conference. The NAACP
official came to the meeting upon
the invitation of c. Blythe An
drews, liberal grand president of
the Lily White. Following its
custom of recent years, the Grand
Assembly presented a check for
$500 to the operating fund of the
NAACP State Conference.
Quoting recent editorial in the
Pittsburgh Courier, Secretary
Moore said, ut is clear that there
is new atmosphere in the United
States today. This is due in part
to a change in the attitude of
White America, but in larger part
to the export campaign which has
been Waged the past 40 years"
The state secretary then proceed
ed to explain how the NAACP,
through its many legal victories,
is helping to clear up the atmos-
phere of racial relations in the
field of education, in the field of
politics.. and in the matter of
justice in the courts. 1t was
pointed out that because of the
NAACP's Supreme Court victory
in the Sweat case last year,
many Florida counties are now
making a serious effort to pro-
vide equal school facilities for
Negro children. The NAACP ex-
ecutive also explained tina the
Progressive Voters League has
been able to exert enough polti-
cal influence to get an anti
lynching bill and a teachers SAL
airy bill before the Fla. Legisla-
ture only because the NAACP's
legal staff killed the white" pri-
mary back in 1914.
State Deputies G. Crompton of
Titusville responded to the state
Ocala and Thomas Johnson of
Secretary's address and urged all
Lily White members to give their
full support to the NAACP. UpoG
motion of Deputy Crompton, the
Grand Assembly voted to send
kilograms to the Legislature,
urging passage of the anti-lynch-
ing bill and the bill for equal
salaries for teachers.

In this item, Mrs. Sampson is

on Negro and southern problems,
Emphasizing throughout his
talk that working specifications
rather than mere ideologies" are
needed, DR.. Odum said that his
proposed cultural conversion
would provide for the integrity,
rights, participants, opportunity,
and cultural autonomy of both
White and Negro people in the
framework of the American
dream and in the regional setting
Of a southern people more pros
porous and happy.
Il propose that we underwrite
and covenant together, in unity
and integrity with courage and
faith, and without fear and favor
to insure the conversion of our
southern bi-racial civilization
into an. integrated multiple-cul-
tured American democracy.
ITO this end, we want the
south to listen before protesting;
we want the nation to listen be-
fore attacking; we want the world
to listen before generalizing."
"This (intergration) done ade-
quately," he predicted, twill not
only make the south prosperous
beyond previous measures, but
will enable it through its in
creased prosperity to pay for its
new investments and contribute
in turn, to the national wealth."
