UNESCO Marks
$500, 900 In Aid
To Ill Countries

PARIS - The United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Gull
tural Organization has launched
new program for providing "di-
rect aid to member states, inn
earmarking from its
regular budget just under $780,
600 to cover projects already ap-
proved for 1856 in Al countries.
This direct aid scheme, which
was authorized by the Unesco Cen
eral Conference at its meeting in
Montevideo last December, is un-
like the u. N. Expanded Program
of Technical Assistance, in which
Unesco also participates, in that it
is not limited to economic develop
ment and is applicable to advanced
as well as to underdeveloped coun-
tries.
Total funds available for the
program for the period 1856
are ST, 100000. So far requests have
been received from So countries for
aid amounting to over S4000,000.
The selection of the projects APP
proved has been based on strict
criteria established by Unesco's
Executive Board.
The $800,000 already earmarked
will provide for the sending of SO
experts to the field, the award of
46 fellowships for study and the
supply of $1,000 worth of equip
ment over the next 20 months. The
balance of 100000 has been set
aside to meet other requests for
aid.

Tips On Buying
Good Cabbage Now

Experienced housewives have
learned that cabbage is likely to
have better flavor if the leaves are
shiny and green. A dull texture
and pale, nearly white color indi-
cate poorer quality and flavor.
These observations by Madison
County Extension Agent John
Moore, point up the value of fresh
cabbage currently on the market.
The crop now coming to market
offers fresh, flavorful quality that
provides good eating and good food
value, says Moore.
There is convenience in a head
of new cabbage 1t is easy to serve.
and there are many ways to serve
it.
When you buy cabbage, Moore
advises, look for heads that are
heavy for their size, with leaves

Prosecutor OF
Union Go. Faces
Blackmail Charge

Lloyd George -kerns, Union
County Prosecuting Attorney was
scheduled to face action on the
blackmail charges Tuesday which
had been filed against him by Mrs.
Helen Phipps of near Summers
vile.
A preliminary hearing was held
July 5th, before Justice of the
Peace, William Snodgrass who re-
terred the case to the grand jury
after three hours of deliberation
and questioning of witnesses.
The decision of the grand JIM
ors will determine whether or not
Kerns will go on trial for the black
nail charge filed by the house
wife. Mrs. Phipps charges that
Kerns threatened to expose her
criminal record if she filed a civil
suit against his father, Floyd
Kerns a former state representa-
tive.
The main points of the case
which grand jurors will listen to
in arriving at their decision will
be:
Whether Mrs. Phipps charge is
true or an unjust accusation.
Whether Kerns used the powers
of his office to gain access to info
rmation about Mrs. Phipps so he
could threaten her.
Whether Mrs. Phipps and her
husband, Albert, felt they were
entitled to from $1,000 to $4,000
for work done for Kerns' father,
Floyd Kerns, and possible damages
for what they claim was rescind-
ing of an oral business arrange
ment or whether it was black
mail on their part as charged by
Hopes.
Kerns denied that he had ever
offered any money to have the
charges dropped against him or
that he had ever made any allega-
tions concerning using Mrs. Phipps'
past record against her.

l&TucSSs
On television programs, be-
tween programs there are usual
ly placed two 20 second spots. In
between there Is a short ten Sec
ond spot known as a station iden-
tification spot, or break. Under
FEC rules, between programs a
station must identify itself In
some manner. 4
So television stations have
worked out a method Of produc-
ing revenue from this identifica-
tion break. Usually. for about
half the cost Of 20 second spot,
. sponsor can buy ten second
spot for his product, but the up
per one-fourth, or one-third Of
the area must be taken up by the
stations call letters
However, National Broadcast
ing Company Is owned by RCA
which makes televisions and
other appliances. A growing
chain of stations is also owned
by Westinghouse. which also
makes a full line Of appliances.
In addition, Columbia Broadcast
ing Company also makes and
markets CHS TV sets.

So now. the practice has started
that during these 10 second spots,
not oHly are station caIl letters
given, but it Is also identified ~
Westinghouse, RCA, et al.
Thus, every change Of pro-
gram. free advertising is per.
mitted over the air for the ap-
pliances manufactured by these
few firms who also own teievision
stations.
This IN turn gives them q wide
edge over all other competitors,
as none Of the competition has
any way Of getting beer, bread,
or other advertisers, TO pay the
cost Of flashing their appiiance
brand name on the teievtsion
screens Of the nation.
In many areas, especially
where an NBC and a Westing-
house station practically control
the teievision outlets, this has
been found 10 work disadvan-
tage to the independent distribu-
tors and retailers Of an the other
brands of television, radio, re-
frigerators. ranges. and other
appliances.
OF course Il probably would be
unfair to say that FEC members
knowingly permit this practice.
But rs In most bureaucracies,
there is lacking In the member
ship qualified people who would
recognise the unfairness OF such
procedures.
But one thing is sure.
Amy Independent distributor
seeking 10 sell some other brand
Of appliances realizes that having
the brand name OF Westinghouse
flashed on the local tclevision
screen every half hour, Is not at
all helpful 10 him. And rs for
those who pay for such identifica-
tion spots which also promote an
appliance brand name, 1t could
truly be said that never have 80
many been soaked 30 much~for
the benefit Of so few.

nessee.
Here are some of the points
revealed:
In SO out Of every 100 families,
the wife either does all the fam
ily's banking or splits the job
with her husband; in only 81 per
cent Of the families is the hus-
band the sole banker.
In IS of every 100 families, the
wife handles the more intricate
banking jobs-such as arranging
personal loans or the mortgage.
etc. Almost as many women
as men deal with non-teller bank
officials" reports Mr.. Wood. who
apparently thought women re-
strict themselves entirely to the
routine activities of deposits or
Withdrawals.
Ir 40 Of every leo families, the
wife alone or the wife with her
husband decides which bank the
family shall use.
But in 81 of every 100 families
polled the woman could not re-
member a single feature of any
bank ad she had seen.
Obviously, it's news to the
bankers Just how powerful Mrs.
American is. Obviously, since we
respond to ads for other goods
and services in newspapers,

spond to ads for banks means the
banks are falling down on the
job. Mr.. Woods message to banks
is loud and clear: Better Go
Get Herr"
How come We have become
such significant forces !. in the
banking world? Mr.. Wood Of
ferS no explanation. but can.
AS more and more marriages
become working partnerships it
is entirely logical that the wife
should share in the banking
duties or take over the entire
chore.
AS more and more women be-
come the dominant or sole man
ager of the family's finances
whether or not they hold jobs
outside the home-it is entirely
logical that they do more than
just deposit or withdraw cash.
Another recent survey disclosed
CnaC IN 100 per cent of Ameri-
cas- homes women are intrusted
with the complete or partial
handling of the household funds.
AS more and more women be-
come owners of stocks 1t is en-
tirely logical that they become
more familiar with all phases of
finance. United States Rubber
Co. is the latest company to
join the growing ranks of cor
porations having more woman
stockholders than men; at the
end Of 1851 the men outnum-
bered the women.
And when bankers really grasp
the meaning of Mr.. Woods find
ings and direct their appeals
more to women, Mrs. Americas
role will become even more i'm
portant. In our land in 1865
Midas is lady. indeed
