BROWN SUGAR.

mrs. p. L. B.. Bethesda
A few years ago ! discovered
a simple way to keep brown
sugar soft, and to soften hard
brown sugar. 1t is such a SIM
pie solution that / cannot un-
derstand why every one does
not know it. I put hardened
brown sugar in a metal can
mister and in a short time it
was as fresh as it had been
originally. Now / put fresh
brown sugar in q metal can
mister and it will keep fresh.
just about forever. We keep
granulated sugar in a cannis-
ter. so why not brown sugar?
At first I used the canister in
my set that was meant for tea,
but now I have a large one so
that I have an adequate
amount of brown sugar at all
times.
I hope that all the many
readers who have requested
ways to keep brown sugar soft
will find this helpful.
mrs. J. w. r., Washington
In reference to Mrs. r. BIS
INJURY about how to soften
brown sugar-if she will
place the open box of sugar in
the freezing compartment of
the refrigerator. the sugar will
gradually soften up again and
become moist. When I~open
a box of brown sugar, I take
the top of the box completely
off so the sugar can absorb
the moisture and just keep
the box in the freezing COM
partment. In that way the
sugar stays soft and moist un-
til it is used up.

ANSWER TO QUERY.
mrs. J. w. NJ, Bethesda
For the lady who requested
instructions on making tum-
blers from old bottles, there is
an article in the August, 1858,
issue of Everywoman's Maga-
zine, giving the exact informa-
ton she needs, as well as for
making lamps. The article is
illustrated, so it should be
good reference for her. I have
a copy of this magazine, and
If she would like it she can
contact me through RICH and
I will be glad to give it to her.
Now for a problem of my
own: We would like to deco
rate the brick surrounding the
opening of our fireplace with
hand-decorated or already
decorated tiles. If I can find
some in the stones that I like,
we would use them. But my
question is this: How does one
attach these tiles to the brick
facing? Is there some type of
cement or glue that will hold
them on without being af-
fected by the heat from the
fire? Or do they have to be
attached by some other COM
plicated method? Any infor-
nation will be most gratefully
received.

Truman Rejects House
Subpoena To Testify
In White Investigation

NEW YORK, R-Former Presi-
dent Harry S. Truman said Fri
day his refusal to honor a con-
gressional subpoena did not neces-
sarily mean he would remain 81
lent on the Harry Dexter White
controversy.
He made the remark during his
usual breakfast stroll but did
not elaborate.
On Thursday Truman rejected
the subpoena of the House I'M
American Activities Committee on
the grounds that the executive
and legislative branches of the
government were separate enti-
ties.
The committee had wanted to
question Truman about Atty. Gen.
Brownell's charge that Truman
appointed Harry Dexter White, a
treasury aide now dead, as Am
erican director of the Internation-
al Monetary Fund despite an FBI
report White was a Soviet spy.
Asked if he would accept an in
vitation to appear before the Sen
ate Investigating Committee, as
suggested yesterday by Sen. Rob
ert c. Hendrickson GRIND, Tru-
man said:
II haven't been invited. Let's
cross that bridge when we come
to it. Well have to wait and see
what they have in mind
A newsman referred to pub
lished speculation that Truman
kept White in government service
because the FBI was investigat-
ing him.

former president replied. 81 have

dropped their plan to require for

This was learned Friday from
reliable sources who may not be

The idea of having the ex-presi-

case originated with the Repub-
icans, and they made the decision
to give it UP. How much weight
they gave to the view of high top

Supreme Court Justice
Tom Clark Also Refuses
To Comply With Subpoena

WASHINGTON, R- Supreme
Court Justice Tom Clark refused
Friday to comply with a subpoena
to testify before the House I'M
American Activities Committee on
the Harry Dexter White case.
Clark offered, however, to give
serious consideration" to any
written questions the committee
may wish to- send him.
In a letter to the committee,
Clark based his rejection Of the
subpoena on the premise that
the judiciary branch of the gov
eminent is Independent Of the
legislative.
This is the same constitutional
basis on which former President
Truman declined yesterday to
honor a committee subpoena. Tru-
mans stand was that the execu-
tive branch of the government
was not subject to- authority of
the congressional branch.

Bristol Bayites
Rather Work Than
Accept Relief

JUNEAU, R-Bristol Bay resi-
dents, hard hit by the seasons
fishing failure, have suggested a
number of work projects to keep
them off the dole, the assistant
director of the Federal Civil De-
Tense Administration reported
Thursday.
Ernest Hall, back from a tour of
the affected area, said the finan-
cially hard-pressed fishermen told
him they want to earn their
money $50 we can buy our own
supplies"
He said the natives also plan
to augment their earnings by trap
ping and hunting for food.
w. E. Hendrickson, Civil De-
Tense Administrator and Secre-
tary of Alaske, said there was no
immediate need for direct aid. He
said, however, that federal food
supplies will be shipped north
and stockpiled at Anchorage and
possibly Bristol Bay in case of an
emergency.
His view differed from that of
the Rev. Father George E. Endal,
Jesuit priest at Dillingham;, who
said in Anchorage 'SThere is an
immediate need for money and
food in many instances in Hanna
and the Nushagak areas"
(The priest and Jim Downey Of
the Boring Sea Fishermen's Union
agreed however, that the fisher
man wanted work projects rather
than relief gifts.

Brightest Employment
Prospects Predicted For
Fairbanks Area In 1854

FAIRBANKS, Up - The man.
ager of the Territorial Employ
ment office here predicts the Fair
banks area has Alaska's brightest
employment prospects for 1854.
Charles c. Pugh, the office
manager, reiterated the long
standing admonition against any
rush of job-seekers.
His advice for them was: "Come
north with sufficient cash to last
several months and be prepared
for disappointments."
His comment on the prospects
was:
Information from other en-
ployment offices in the territory
indicates that all parts of Alaska
anticipate high employment levels
in 1854. However, in view of
known projects, such as the
Haines-Fairbanks pipeline and the
Big Delta developments, prospects
for Fairbanks residents look bet
ter than anywhere else in the
territory"
