De GauIIist Attacks
On Plans for Unitinq
Europe Are Feared
BY the A.seeiassd Pres.

PARIS, Jan. a European
Federalists sought today to
counter what they consider a
dangerous double-pringed often
sive by followers of Gen. Charles
de Gaulle against plans for
united West Europe and a six
nation army.
The two-Way assault developed
as the Gaullists won new politi-
Cal power by boosting Rene May
er into the premiership OF
France.
The first indication of the Of
fensive came yesterday when
Gen. De Gaull'S rally of the
French People tRPFD backed
Mr.. Mayer in return for his
promise to reopen negotiations
on the delicately balanced Eu-
ropean army treaty that would
enlist West German manpower
in a common, single e-uniform
army.
The second prong developed
In Strasbourg where delegates of
six West European nations be-
gan debate on rough draft of
a plan to establish joint execu-
tive, legislative and judicial
bodies for France, West Ger
many. Italy. Belgium, the Meth
erlands and Luxembourg.
COunter-PrOpOsal Offered.
Michael Debre, RPF member |
apparently expressing many of |
Gen. De Gaulle's own ideas, ad-
vanced a counter proposal,
which would in effect strip such
a central administration of any
real power and entrust Europe's |
future to directorate of prime
ministers.
The Gaullists have opposed
both the European unif1cation
and army plans in their present
form. but their opposition now
appeared more powerful because
of the margin by which the
French National Assembly con-
firmed Mr.. Mayer as Premier.
Political observers said the
army plan faces at least further
delay. And probable French de-
mands that clauses be added to
meet Gaullist objections that the
pact fails to respect the honor
and unity of the French Army.
The treaty, hammered out in
months of negotiations, is de-
signed to place troops of the
same six nations, now discussing
unification at Strasbourg, under
a unified command. So far none
of the six have ratified the pact.
but West Germany's Bundestag
is expected to reach a final vote
this month.
Adenauer FavOrs ClarificatiOn.
In Bonn. however. West Ger
man Chancellor Konrad Alden
auer said in a radio speech he
agreed with Mr.. Mayer that new
talks were necessary to clarity
and amplify certain parts of the
Army treaty and the West Ger
man peace contract because
"many developments have taken
place" since the pacts were
signed last May.
Parliamentary observers here
In Paris said there appeared to
be an almost general desire
among deputies in the National
Assembly to put off ratification
Of the army treaty indefinitely.
Most Frenchmen have never
been happy about the idea of
rearming the Germans, their
traditional enemies.

The world has regarded his at
tempt to do so as one Of the most
absurd Of all stories.
Don Quixote thought cattle,
sheep and windmills were enemies,
and countless millions Of people
have laughed over his adventures.
Canute tried to stay the sea

courtiers are trying to stay THE
Rising Tide OF Colour" That Is
no laughing matter. The stupid
king got his feet wet, but the
even more stupid Higgins and
his followers will find themselves
in a blood bath that win over

demand that justice must triumph

elimination.

ficant white minorities in Africa
are challenging every colored per-
son in the world. Higgins may
think that he can fool Africans
and Asians by using the title Of
my plan, but he is mistaken.
Higgins, Malan, Welenslky and
their British hackers could not
have chosen a worse moment for
issuing their challenge to colored
peoples
But Asians and Africans now
have their own ideas and 1t can
be that whites will have to re-

Change Chests, Tables
Did you know that those small
three or four drawer chests, no
matter how worn or shabby can
become very gay with a few yards
Of chintz, a package Of thumbtacks
and a small amount Of effort?
Fabric to cover the chests or
small bureaus should be kept I'M

Of some small checked or print

For the skirt, seam lengths to

Action By Using
Classified Ad

A Minneapolis couple who ran
a classified ad in this paper last
week got immediate action in a
few hours. The couple, Mr.. and
Mrs. John Lowe were so pleased
that they wrote the following
letter:
Gentlemen:
We inserted an ad for an
apartment for two insertions in
your classified section. We re-
ceived such immediate results
that it won't be necessary to
run it again.
We had rs calls in the space
of a few hours on last Friday
and by the fifth call we had
secured the apartment which
fits our needs.
We thought your paper and
its readers would want to
know that classified ads bring
results.

UNITED STATES OF AFRICA

UNITED STATES OF AFRICA
London LAMP Fifty ques-
tons recently were put to Sir
Godfrey Higgins, prime minister
of Southern Rhodesia at press
conference in London. He answer
ed every one Of them. But in his
summing up of the whole African
situation he stood solidly for a
United States of Africa.
As the man who first demanded
a United States of Africa many
years ago cannot but feel great
" heartened. In a United States
of Africa all races will be guaran-
teed justice. Africa will be proper
ly developed and linked to Paci-
fic and Indian Oceans Peoples
pact. Africans will have more
than sufficient of their own capt.
tai, backed by the natural resour-
ces and man power of the vast
area
And they win have markets far
greater than any that the colonial
powers, even with the aid of
U.S.A. dollars, could find.
A United States of Africa means
that the territories between the
Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn
in Africa shall be federated into
one federation in which a majority
of the inhabitants are African, and
shall therefore govern their
States.
It must be stated here. however,
that Sir Godfrey has no intention
of adopting my plan although he
took the liberty Of stealing my
title.
Sir Godfrey's ideas of Africa
and Africans are strangely warped
by the narrow environment of
Southern Rhodesia. I was in
Southern Rhodesia long before Sir
Godfrey. but fortunately for my
outlook as well as for my soul, I
had better teachers In Rhodesia
than those from whom Sir Godfrey
has imbibed his strange ideas.
The present generation laughs
at the story of Canute, just as 1t
laughs at the story Of Don Quix-
ote, but here we have men more
stupid by far than either Canute
and his courtiers or the poor
muddled old Don.
Canute's courtiers persuaded
him that he could stay the tides.

The Chef
Suys
By the Chef

Back in the good old days,
when I was a youngster, I spent
my summers on my GRANDPA
ther's farm in Virginia. AS on all
farms. there was a hustle Of ac-
tivity from sunup to sundown.
indoors and out. And one Of
the busiest spots, that 1ured me
like a magnet, was the enor-
nous sunny kitchen. with its
cleaning black coal range topped
by a gently kissing teakettle and
the big sanded wood table in
the center Of the floor. hinged
about the walls were utensils of
shining copper-in the closet
were the black heavy iron ones
There was a rocking chair by
another table at the window: a
cat was always curled in baS-
ket surrounded by purring kit
tens and in the middle of it all
was my grandmother working
away with the help of the plump
colored nanny at the perpetual
job Of baking, boiling, frying and
preserving.
At just about this time every
year the farmhands would come
painting in loaded with baskets
Of purple damsons and golden
ounces. And from my grand
mothers busy hands would flow
jar after jar of luscious jams
and jellies, purple and gold, to
be lined up on the shelves of the
almost filled preserves closet.
Usually when I went unhappily
back to the city for the winter,
two or three jars were sent along
with me as a present to my
mother-and how they brought
back summer memories when
their contents appeared on hot,
flaky biscuits on a bowling win
ter night!
Here are two of my grand
mothers special recipes for dam
sons and ounces that remain
forever my favorites:
Pick out perfect ounces of a
bright yellow color and put them
in a preserving kettle with water
to cover. Scald them for a few
moments, remove them and take
out the cores. Put the cores in
water and boil them for about
20 minutes. Strain the LIQUID
and add to it the weight of the
ounces in sugar. Let this sirup
cook down a little and, mean
while, peel the ounces. When
there is just sirup enough to
cover them, put the ounces into
the kettle, and let them cook un-
til fairly transparent. Leave the
cover off II you wish the ounces
Evening star., 1953-08-17

to be reddish in color-a covered
kettle produces yellow fruit.
Pack the ounces in hot steril-
lied jars, and cover with the
boiling sirup.
To make the damson preserves,
wipe the fruit with a damp cloth
and prick each one several times
with a large needle. Weigh fruit
carefully. Boil "a their weight
in sugar with water to make a
sirup-about l cup water to each
pound of sugar. When the sirup
reaches the boiling point. drop
in the damsons, a few at a time.
Cook until fruit is just soft, but
still retains shape. Put into
sterilized jars and seal.

Baby Bottle Story Told In Exhibit
By Betty Miles

Baby bottles may be as COM
mon today as baby'S smile, but
they haven't always been.
AS a matter Of fact. they have
only been around about 100
years, a short time indeed COM
pared to the number of years
babies have been on the scene.
George E. Griffenhagen, cura-
tor Of the Division Of Medicine
and Public Health of the Smith
sonian Institution, has assem-
bled an exhibit that tells the
story Of the changes and i'm
provementS in the nursing bottle
during the last century. It is on
display in the Division Of
Medicine gallery, Arts and IN
dustries Building of the United
States National Museum, Ninth
and Jefferson streets NV.
The lack of sterilization and
pasteurization had discouraged
the development of the bottle.
Babies who were nursed in this
manner sometimes died. The
wet nurse remained an estab-
liShed institution.
There were few bottles at all
before 1845. Once started, how
ever. variations on the theme
abounded. BY 1916 the United
States Patent Office had issued
232 patents to inventors of
infant feeding bottles. Many of
the original patent models are
used in the exhibit.
The first nursing bottle
patented in the United States,
made of glass, was invented by
Charles H. Windship of Rox-
bury, Mass. The year was 1841.
Early bottles were sometimes
made of tin and wood as well.
The rubber nipple was pat
ented in 1845 by Elijah Pratt
of New York. Hard ivory or
silver nipples, which operated
like straws, were preferred, how
ever, until about 1875, remaining
popular through most of the
18th century. The popularity of
the rubber nipple developed as
the quality of the rubber was
improved.
In 1851 the first of the long
sucking tube type, the ODonnell
bottle, bowed at the great exhibi-
ton in London. This bottle, the
first one to be widely accepted,
became popular Immediately.
continued in use for so years,
and actually was responsible for
popularizing nursing bottles in
general. The sucking tube was
long and flexible, usually of rub
Der, with a nipple on the end.
The invention Of an air inlet
to permit entrance Of air to
relieve the vacuum within the
bottle has intrigued inventors.
Seventy-two patents for special
types of vents have been
granted, while new devices con-
tinue to appear.
Nursing bottles were not un-
known to antiquity. In Greek
and Roman times such bottles
looked largely like teapotS with
long Spouts.
In the nursery equipment dis
play being shown in conjunction
with the bottle exhibit is the
infant exerciser that is attached
to cradles on which the patent
was granted. Amazingly enough
this device, standard equipment
today, wasn't patented until
1913. 1t was developed by
Vernon G. EiSel.
Teething devices are of rela-
lively recent origin. One shown,
developed in 1866, consists of a
perforated tube containing a
sponge saturated with a sugar
solution to induce the child to
keep it in his mouth.
One baby invention which is
not a Johnny-c -come-lately on the
scene is the walker. On display
is a woodcut which dates from
1882, showing a youngster of
that era learning to walk in a
movable apparatus.
