BREAD FROM The SEA
German Scientist Proves Alqoe
Con Produce Edible Flour

q a. +. a.
Lienau's only consolation
during this period was that
he met Norwegian fellow pris-
oners with experience Of sea-
weed, and 1t was with them
that he continued his research
after the war. A bad harvest
In Germany reminded him Of
the seaWeed bread he had
baked years before In Iceland.
He took up the work again,
and became the first man In
Europe TO bake .bread from
the sea"
The bread Is reportedly very
palatable. The first time,
people sni6 it suspiciously,
with memories Of the un-
pleasant odor Of decaying
seaweed. But this bread Is
made from pure seaweed
grown in special farms" off
the Norwegian coast and
shipped directly to Hamburg.
1t has no smell. and 1t. tastes
almost as good as plain cake.
More nourishing, 1t contains
vitamins A to H, as well as
minute quantities Of nutri-
tious elements such as iodine,
bromine and iron.
The pure algae -four ex-
tracted from the seaweed is
mixed with ordinary wheat
flour for bread production, in
quantities Of from 60 to 80
per cent Of the mix. according
to taste and price. Only one
bakery, In Flensburg, Is max
ing the bread at present, but
1t can be sent all over Ger
many and abroad, because it
keeps fresh for weeks.
Prof. Lienau sees many
other uses for algae flour
because Of its great nutritive
value. He thinks it win be
used in toothpaste and ice
cream, and says 1t is remark
able as an anti-burn treat
ment.

enough for man.
This premise has caused
many scientists TO consider
how best TO use the countless
millions Of aaoRrishing minute
organisms In the sea to make
foodstuffs for man or beast.
Years ago, scientists In Japan.
Germany and the United
States began experimental
production of ingredients for
animal feed. A japanese
biologist, Hiroshi Tamija, was
successful In making valuable
cattlecake from seemingly
worthless algae.
Now q German scientist.
Heinrich Lienau, Is, has
started producing q palatable
and nutritious bread from
algae flour. As q boy. Lienau
visited relatives who owned
q farm on the Baltic, with
fields running down to the
sea. He noticed that the
horses pigs and dogs ate the
seaweed and that these
animals and others living on
seaside farms were all re-
markably healthy.
After experim nts, he
opened q small factory ON the
island Of Sylt and produced
q pig food from seaweed. The
business slowly prospered. and
Lienau learned more about
seaweed and algae. In 1888
he built another factory near
Reykjayik, Iceland. and there,
for the first time, baked bread
from q fiour extracted from
seaweed. But his pleasure in
success was short-lived. When
he returned to Germany in
1889 he landed In Sachsen-
hausen concentration camp.

Phoenix Before
KPHO-Tv Cameras

Phoenix Album" a new 13-week
television series dealing with the
historical highlights of the develop
ment of Phoenix and the Valley
of the Sun, will be presented by
the Junior League of Phoenix
each Tuesday at $50 pm. starting
November 8, 1855.
To be seen on KPHO-TV, Chan
mel 5, in Phoenix, the series is be-
ing presented by the Junior League
as part of the observance of its
25th Anniversary in Phoenix. The
series will deal in dramatic fashion
with the growth of Phoenix from
it's founding in 1871 to the present
time.
Each program will feature the
development of some phase of life
in Central Arizona, including such
topics as Law and Order, Medi-
cine, Drama, Recreation, Educa-
ton, Athletics, the Housewives Lot,
Music and Cultural Development.
On each program one of Phoe-
nixs volunteer agencies will be

Theatre, Golden Gate Settlement,
Phoenix Symphony Association
Civil Defense, Friendly House,
Phoenix Day Nurseries, and Re-
cording for the Blind.
A variety of approaches will be
used to tell the story of Phoenix =
past and present. A research COM
mittee of the Junior League has
costumes, furnishings, and other
properties which reflect the life
and events of various historical
periods in Phoenix. In addition,
films and live re-enactments will
be used to bring the past and pres
ent of the community into the
viewers living rooms.
According to Mrs. Robert L..
Blake, Chairman of the Junior
Leagues Television Committee,
"The League feels that these pro-
grams will be of great interest and
educational benefit to school chill
dren and parents alike, both from
an historical standpoint, and be-
cause they will point up the in
creased work of volunteer agencies
in our community"

Beware Of Easy Deal"
When Buying That Cor

A disturbing notion is the degree
to which many Negro families are
plunging themselves into debt on
the bleakeSt credit terms, not with
standing an inventory on their total
incomes after allowing for living
exepnses.
In short, it has been rumored
that many negroes are fastening,
for the most part, heavy, financial
loads around their necks on which
they will have difficulty coming
out ahead.
This type of thing is far from
being prudent, when you reflect
that no item of merchandise or
commodity is worth taking bread
out of the family's mouth.
Manufacturers have on hand to-
day 100000 unsold cars as they
start their 1856 models off. Accord
ing to the Syndicate, "our anxiety
should not be over the quantity of
our installment debts. 1t should be
over the quality of our installment
debts"
Boiled down, the crux of the en-
tire phenomena is to inform the in
dividual to be on guard against
going above his means" in buy
ing credit merchandise.
Be safe, be sure and get your
moneys worth.

EDITOR NOTE = The following
is a release from the (ANP) and a
reprint from the Oklahoma Black
Dispatch. We think it's timely and
food for thought here in our COM
munity.
CHICAGO - The power of the
Negro purse throughout the CEN
tury has been increasingly on the
upgrade, and along with it, the de-
sire of various merchants to attract
that capital through the medium OF
their products, especially new car
dealers.
Many consumers are going into
debt on the mis-guiding basis OF
their total incomes : instead OF
the proper basis of this incomes
after allowing for their basic ex-
penses.
If YOU buy a new car at the bar
gain price of $4,000 and put down
$3.50 or 25 percent, agreeing to pay
off the balance in 36 monthly in
stallments at about S63 per month,
YOU have made a bad deal for your
self, according to the Hall Syndi-
cate Inc.
A case of this type would find
your payments for a long long,
time going entirely for cover and
finance charges, and you would
hardly be building up a cent in
your investment.
II, on the other hand, you buy
the same car, using $773 or 33 and
one-third percent as down pay
ment, agreeing to pay off the bal
ance in "a months at payments of
around S75 a month, you have
made a sound deal for yourself.
The difference being that for the
most part you will be paying on
you car and it will be worth more
in the market than you owe on it,
giving you a major equity in it,
enabling you to realize sound cash
value if you should sell it.
Negro consumers are quite often
gravely exploited when buying new
and used cars, and a few funda-
mental rules can greatly alleviate
many problems that may arise.
Presuming that you are a young
couple with a total income of $780,
400 a month after deductions, you
should first allow for the basic ex-
penses of food, clothing and shelter
before thinking of any kind of car
If after totaling these you should
have perhaps S10O left, you can use
this capital for monthly install
ment payments, remembering how
ever not to pledge more than 1880
per cent of tn money to credit, lest
you may find yourself in a tight
financial squeeze if some other
situation should come up.
With S10O left after the neces-
sary expenses, the Hall Syndicate.
Inc, advises that an individual
should stay in the safe limit by
using only $40 or $50 for credit
payments, SO you will have room
to turn around" should you get into
financial trouble.
This system applies equally, the
survey indicates, to any appliance
bought where credit is used.

He Loved the Soil
This man was King Uzziah, one

was a strong king in many ways.
It is true. he was king over
very small territory as we see it
today. Dr.. Stapp's rocket sled
could cover it end to end in about
20 seconds. It is said by his biog-
rapher that his fame extended to
the border Of Egypt not over
200 miles at most However, while
his kingdom was a tiny one as
countries go today. the beauty of
the Old Testament is that we have
something like very large scale
maps of small areas. blown up
so we can see the detail. This
King Uzziah succeeded in resist
ing ruinous invasion by the ever
greedy ruthless countries around
him. He strengthened the national
defense: he reorganized the army;
he introduced Chem modern
equipment for his armed forces.

because he was himself wise and
strong
He Grew Proud
Nevertheless he finally tumbled
down. His clay underpinning at
last gave way. The inspired bog
rapher puts his finger on the
weakness and names it: He grew
proud" and adds, Ito his de-
struction. Proud men do not
think of their pride as a weak
ness. they consider that strength
and pride 60 together. So they
often do. only the pride tears
down the strength What happened
TO Uzziah has happened to many
dictator since. He thought he
could do as he pleased. He scofied
at the laws he had once supported
He came to think of himself as
human exception to Gods law.
He declined 10 take advice He
no longer would listen to men Of
God. II is this ballooning conceit
this unwillingness to listen to any
one. this feeling oneself Destiny
child. that trapped Julius Caesar
and Pontius PLATE and Napoleon
and Hitler and many another ty-
rant in history Pride is always
a weakness. It blinds the proud
man to his own defects, it blinds
him to the wisdom of others. 1t
turns him from a good strong
man into a little tin god, from
something genuine into something
"phony." II isn't only kings Of
old and dictators of today, it isn't
only the famed in history, it can
happen to obscure people too.
He Was False TO the Lord
The most serious charge brought
against Uzziah is that he was
false to the Lore" III Chr %:
l6). To put what he did into mod
ern terms. this king-dictator, who
had run everything else success
fully, at last tried to run the
church. The priests took their
orders, as they understood it,
from God; this brash Uzziah said,
in effect. Now never mind what
God has ordered; from now on
you will listen to ME To put it
INTO modern terms again Uzziah
wanted to put the Church under
