Fire Hazards
On Increase
In Summer

Acting Fire Chief B. B. Wilkin-
son asked residents of the valley
of the Sun" to aid in eliminating
two extremely dangerous fire haz-
ards prevalent during the summer
months in a statement released to-
day to local newspapers.
Cautioning against having auto
mobile gasoline tanks filled to the
brim, Acting Chief Wilkinson gave
this explanation. Gasoline taken
from a cool underground tank and
put into the tank of an automobile
where it is exposed to the sun, will
expand. And if the tank is filled

and after washing apply lotion
consisting of two or more tea
spoons of powdered alum to one
pint of water twice daily. Follow

grains salicylic acid. Great relief is
often afforded by the use of this

moving the cloth and baking in a
slow oven for IS to 30 minutes.

Workshop Tip

The cans in which fruits and
vegetables come from the store
make convenient containers for
nails and screws. Allot can 70
each type and size. Identify the
content by noting it on a strip of
adhesive tape stuck to the side of
the can. With adhesive tape now
available in a new Cut-Quick Roll,
it isn't necessary to use knife or
scissors when a strip is needed.
The tape is cleanly cut by the rolls

you'll find dozens of workshop
uses for it.

cause the gasoline to overflow,
thus causing fire hazard.
Chief Wilkinson said that care
Iessly thrown match or cigarette,
or spark from an exhaust pipe,
could ignite the spilled gasoline
and destroy not only the car but
buildings and other vehicles near
by.
Another fire hazard in Phoenix is
caused by dry leaves, tree
branches, paper or grass left on the
ground, the acting chief said. Chill
dren playing with matches, secretly
smoking, or a passerby throwing
away a match could set this dry
vegetation afire, and damage or
destroy buildings in the vicinity.
He urged everyone to get rid of
dry grass, trash and brush.

luMeegee InSllIuIe
Reports No Lynthings
According to criteria used in the
Department of Records and Re-
search, Tuskege Institute, for the
second consecutive year, has no
lynchings to report. The 5 years,
1949-1953, show a total of 6
lynchings.
Lynchings Prevented
However, in at least instances
lynchings wer prevented. Reports
on these follow:
On January II, near Mobile, Ala
bama, Henry Lee Brown, II year
old Negro, escaped from Sheriff's
deputies while being taken to Kill
by Prison at Montgomery. Con-
vinced that he was about to be
lynched when his handouts were
removed and the deputies stopped
their cars, the prisoner jumped
from the car in which he rode and
ran into the swamps, while shots
wer fired at him. He later gave
himself up, was tried and acquitted
of the charge of Staying white
woman.
In March, near Wilcox, Arizona,
Arthur Thomas, % year old Negro
migrant cotton worker, accused of
numbering a white woman stores
keeper, was saved from lynching
by an officer of the law.
On May "a, at New York City,
Edward Cartagena, AZ year old
Puerto Rican, was rescued from a
mob by two umpires of a baseball
game and the mounted police. Be-
fore several hundred persons
watching the game in Central
Park, Cartagena stabbed his es-
tranged common law wife to
death. Players and spectators tried
to kill him.
Lynching as additionally de-
fined and as barometer for meas
uring the status of race relations
in the United States, particularly
the South, seems no longer to be
valid index to such relationships.
This is due to significant changes
in the status of the Negro and to
the development of other extra
legal means of control, such as
bombings, incendiarism, threats
and intimidation, etc.
New Index to Race Relations
L. H. Foster, president of Tus-
keegee said, 1--WE believe that a
new standard for measuring race
relations is needed. This can and
should be as objective and as fac
tual as were the lynching reports.
This standard, we think, can best
be established in such areas as
employment and other economic
conditions; in political participa-
ton; in education; in law and leg
islation; in health and perhaps in
other fields.
We propose then, in future an
nual releases, to issue a statement
with information as significant for
the present times as was the An
nual Lynching Letter in the past.
The Department of Records and
Research, which has recorded
lynchings for the last forty-one
years, will continue to do so and
will furnish such information to
those who may request it.
