can get it; while freedom Of infor-
nation involves access to news
(and other forms of knowledge,
of comse) as well as the right to
disseminate it.
q could follow this up with an
illustration. The North Carolina
legislature, faced with record
state budget, rushed through a bill
providing secrecy for appropria-
tions-committee sessions. Actual
voting, Of course, remained open.
Il could understand, if not APP
prove, the budget-makers' desire
for privacy. 1t is hard enough to
apportion states income with
pressure groups swapping at your
heels, without having the press
bring down the pack in full cry.
But it is better to have an honest
Legislator embarrassed for think
ing out loud than to let the dis
honest ones horse trade behind
closed doors.
Up to this point, should say
that North Cardinals offense was
against the broad theory Of free
dom OF information rather than
AGAINST any specific statutory guar
antee OF freedom OF the press The
whole area Oh access to pubic rec
ordS mas pee" a sort OF legal no
mans land from state to state ana
year TO year
But the North Carolina legisla-
tors also proposed fines and even
jail terms for anyone who might
violate this secrecy. There, | sug-
gest, lay a plain violation Of basic
freedom Of the press. In theory,
any newspaper that printed any
thing about the budget discussions
might be presumed oil the face of
publication to have invaded the
meeting, even though the story
came from taikative committee
member instead OF up a hot air
register.

put SENSE INTO
THE FARM PROGRAM"

Milo Perkins held a series of high
positions in the federal government
from 1885 to 1913. For the most
part his work was concerned with
food and agricultural problems and
policies. The September issue of
The Readers Digest features an
article by him, under the striking
title, Last Chance to Put Sense
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1953-10-01

into the Farm Program"
Mr.. Perkins begins by saying:
"When, in 1885, l became Assistant
to the Secretary Of Agriculture, l
did not believe that the governments
emergency measures, then urgently
needed to help L. S. agriculture out
of it's worst disaster, would be
turned into a permanent system of
Increasingly costly farm 'doles. "
Moreover, he did not believe that
farm policy would be used by poll
ticians of both parties as a means
Of obtaining votes with public mon
ey, or that the farmer would be
content to swap his independence
for continuing government hand
outs In all these assumptions, he
now admits, he was wrong. The re-
suit is that the present admins
tration must de.l with "a still-un-
solved farm problem" along with
"a powerful bloc Of farm politicians
who seem unlikely to support any
proposed solution which promises
any less of the vote-inducing fed
eral benefits" At stake, he points
out, is the prosperity Of aglicul-
ture and the American family's
food sunDlv and budop+

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR
ELECTRIC MIXER
by joyce Hunter
Home Economics Student
Mississippi Southern College

Mississippi Southern College
No piece Of equipment in your
kitchen prevents tired and aching
shoulders and adds beauty and
ease to the preparation OF your
meals as does your electric mixer.
When you compare the services 1t
gives with those rendered by the
hand driven method, you realize
at once it's Importance as a men,
Der Of your equipment family. 1t
10 so important and useful that
you will want to find special
place in the preparation center of
your kitchen and have 1t just at
a reach convenient enough to start
to work whenever there Is beating,
mixing, stirring, grinding or slic-
ing to do. Your mixer Is ready
to take over these jobs and do
them for you. The only service
your electric mixer requires for
a perfect job in half the time is
q small amount of care. This care
10 we'll worth your time. since 1t
takes less than 1/3 the amount OF
time to properly care for your
mixer as it would to do the Job
by hand.
OF course, you will want to fol-
low the instructions in your guide
book whenever using and caring
for your mixer, but let me list for
you some helpful hints that will
add to the life Of your electric
mixer:
/. If shortening is stiff, remove
from refrigerator half hour or
longer before using.
2. Don't overbeat-beat Just long
enough to blend thoroughly and
incorporate enough air into the
product.
3. Use the speeds recommended
by your manufacturer until you
know when to vary.
4. If used moderately, oil motor
once year.
5. Always detach heaters i'm
mediately after using and wash
with warm water.
6. Do not immense motor in
water.
7. Keep the mixer clean at all
times.
s. Check 10 see whether bowls
are heat resistant before aiding
boiling liquids.
8. If anything spills on the bowl
support, clean it Immediately. II
not cleaned and dried, this will
rust.
10. Add flour at outside edge of
batter.
II. Use a rubber spatula or
scraper-metal may nick or wind
beaters.
IL. After using, wipe motor-be
sure to clean it's face.
10. After ingredients have been
added, start speed at low and
gradually increase to desired
speed.
IA. Scrape the sides of the bowl
and across the bottom occasional
ly to assure thorough mixing.
Is. Wipe the cord off with
warm soapy water because grease
will weaken the rubber on your
cord.
