Another motion by the S tove
group sought to add clause to the
action program demanding qua
rights for Negroes. The amendment
was rejected by the delegates when
Harvey Solberg, president of Rocky
Mountain Farmers Union and pro-
gram committee chairman, pointed
out that the convention had already
adopted clauses in the program call
ing for equal rights to all citizens.
The action program adopted by the
delegates reasserted Farmers Union
support for preservation and advance
ment of farm program policies, in
direct contradiction on many major
points to stands being adopted by the
Farm Bureau and Grange. It's many

cent of parity for all farm commodi-

alike and prevent development of in

Pending enactment of its 100 per

ing to settle for 60 per cent, Brannar
declared:
at would appear that political frus
tration is the dominating factor in
the actions of these agricultural lead
ers."
Prices at their lowest point during
the depression were 5S per cent OF
parity, Brannan said.
The closing hours of the conven-
ton were marked by a bitter floor
fight over a constitutional amend
ment which leaders of Iowa and New
Jersey state unions charged was aim
ed at taking away their charters.
Fred Slower, president of the Iowa
Farmers Union, charged the amend
ment was canned directly at Iowa,
and the peace forces in the Farm
ers Union"
Slower was co-chairman of the Pro-
gressive Party headed by Henry Wal
lace in 194S, and leader in the
frank and file committee" W h i C h
sponsored unsuccessful motions to put
the convention on record for can i'm
mediate cease-fire in Korea" and for
bringing ''home our boys as quickly
as possible"
The Slower group also called for
of the Korean truce negotia-
tons to the United Nations Security
Council, where the Soviet Union has
the veto power. This has been an OBJ

Rural EIectrification and Telephone

Service-The NFU convention stands
squarely behind the REA co-ops IN
their increasingly critical fight for
access to low-cost power sources and
adequate administrative funds for
REA to permit efficient and speedy
handling of loan requests. A | n
among the general farm organiza-
tons, Farmers Union is outspoken IN
its support for maintaining the law
giving preference to co-ops and pub
lie bodies in the sale of energy pro-
duced at public dams. The action pro-
gram called for federal transmission
lines where needed to assure access
to this power by co-ops, and supports
the right of the REA's to obtain loans
for cooperative generating plants and
transmission liness Farmers Union al
so called for immediate development
of the Missouri, Columbia, and Ar

basis, which would furnish vast guam
titles of electricity for co-ops in crit

calling for greatly-sharpened impetu:
in Farmers Unions fight on all
fronts.
The convention, which drew more
than 1000 delegates and members
to Dallas to celebrate Farmers Unions
Golden Anniversary, was the biggest
in its 50-year history.
One of the leading highlights of
the meeting was presentation to Lord
John Boyd Orr, winner of the Nobel
Prize for Peace in 1949 and former
director general of United Nations
Food and Agricultural Organization,
of Farmers Unions Award for Out
standing Service to Agriculture.
There will be no peace in the
world until hunger, the great poll"
tician," has been defeated, Lord
Orr declared in his acceptance ad-
dress.
The Scottish farmer, scientist, and
statesman, who attended the full five
days of sessions with Lady Orr, de-
clared that science has given man
kind realistic opportunity to end
the twin evils of farmers unable to
make decent living and millions who
can't get sufficient food. He appealed
for using five per cent of the money
spent by each nation on ornaments
to develop the agricultural and natu- |
raj resources of the world in order
to raise the productivity and stand
ard of living of all people.
BEING DELIBERATELY MISLED"
A. J. Hayes, president of the In
ternational Machinists union, warned
that both city people and farmers
are being deliberately misled about
the size of the spread" between the
pay that each receives for his product
and the cost to ultimate consumers.
Both farmers and labor union
members need to inform themselves
about the size of the spread" TAX
en- by middlemen, and do something
about reducing it, Hayes said.

banded rapidly to make crop insur-
ance available to all farmers in all
counties.
The NFU program urges adoption
of a well-rounded program to make
full. efficient, and conservative use
of the production of all farms and to
eliminate waste and destruction of
farm products. 1t recommends ma

and would enable farmers to process

In other fields, the convention
called for immediate adoption of a
national health insurance program,
federal aid to education, initiation
control by an absolute freeze of
wholesale and retail prces, freeze
ii wages except for cost-of-living and
economy-wide increase in produc-

Take Nv Word for 1t 8, F'o"t Cobb,

La Porte: Can you tell us, please.
where the word puppy" comes
from?-Mrs. B. j.
Answer-The word puppy is from
the French poupee (poo-pay),
which means doll; manikin; fig
urine" the same word which gives
us the English word puppet. The
original English word for puppy
was whelp, from the Anglo-Saxon
hwelp. But whelp is seldom used
today except as a verb, ito bring
forth young (dogs, cubs, etc.,"
Apparently, the word poupee was
brought to England by Norman
children after the conquest d066l
They must have loved their little
dogs and dolls with equal affection,
as children always have; hence, the
term poupee was used for both pun
and doll. The Anglo-Saxons
adopted the word. changing it to
puppy, but restricting the meaning
to young dogs.
Mrs. w. D. of Pasadena wants to
know how we came to use the word
dairy for an establishment selling
milk products.
Answer-It was the molding of
bread, not the milking of cows. that
gave us our word dairy. The dairy
maid, or farm servant, was called

Objects which looked something
like buttons were known in ancient
times, but are without any clear
proof that they were used to fasten
clothing. It is believed that such
buttons" were employed only as
ornaments.
If the ancient Greeks knew moth
ing about using buttons to fasten
clothing, we may ask, What did
they employ for the purpose?"
There were pins Of several kinds,
also brooches, belts and cords
Thanks to these, the garments were
held in place fairly well.
Some experts in the field Of COS
tune say that the dresses Of Greek
women were the most graceful in
history" Efforts have been made
in modern times to design clothing
which might match the beauty OF
the Greek costumes.
The dress of a married woman
in ancient Greece hung down to
the ankles. 1t was loose garment
with many folds. Sometimes there
were sleeve-like parts which reached
to the elbow, or almost to the elbow
More often the arms were bare UP
to the shoulders, except when a
woman went outdoors. In the lat

might cover her face with q white

Like modern women, the women
of Greece wanted colors in their
garments. Some, to be sure, wore
white, but many had dresses Of
purple, orange, light blue, green or
brown. Wool cloth was popular,
also linen. Cotton cloth was brought
to Greece by Phoenician merchants,
who obtained their supply from
Egypt.
Girls and young women wore gar

mothers, except that the dresses
were shorter. as q rule. It seems
that girls never wore wells over
their faces before marriage.
On their feet both girls and
women usually wore sandals or
slippers during good weather. In
colder months of the year they
were likely to put on yellow shoes.
In ancient Athens and other
Greek cities, a woman seldom, If
ever, placed a covering on her head,
except part Of Q shawl. In rural
districts, on the other hand, 1t was
common for the women to cover
their heads with bonnets which we
may describe as "sunshades."

INT Pass Diamonds All Pass
Authorities are pretty much in
agreement that you should have
about trick better than an open
ing bid yourself, plus good fit in
partners suit. Lacking a fit with
partners suit, you should have a
stronger hand.
This Is all right-provided you
throw in some good judgment of
your own. One angle to consider is
bidding space. When you Jump to
three hearts over partners opening
spade bid, for example, he is forced
to rebid at the four level if he has
a second suit to show. Here, even
though you have the minimum high
card requirements outlined above,
it IS sometimes better to forgo the
jump-shift in the interests OF ex-
changing fuller information at the
lower ranges.
When the jump-shift can be made
at the two level it is usually best
to make it at once, thus taking the
strain OF partner and making room
for many descriptive and helpful
additional bids before game level is
reached.
This latter situation is illustrated
In today's deal. Mr.. Champion
opened with one club and Mr..
Muzzy bid only one diamond. Mr.
Champion rebid one no trump and
now, with great show of daring
Mr.. Muzzy jumped to six diamonds
Certainly Mr.. Champion could not
possibly be expected to go on to
seven, which is ice-cold.
With II winners, there was NO
reason for Mr. Muzzy to worry
about his lack Of At with his part
ner's club bid. He should have bic
two diamonds on the first round
That would have enabled a gooc
partnership to reach seven without
guessing.
Over two diamonds Mr.. Champion
would have bid two no trump
Since there was no chance of having
the bidding dropped below game
Mr.. Muzzy's proper bid then wa
three diamonds. Having an.
nounced a minimum with his two
no-trump rebid, Mr.. Champion
could now bid three hearts to show
the ace-and four spades over fou1
diamonds to show that ace. Only
Mr.. Meek would now fail to bid thu
grand slam in diamonds.
