Power
Mower
Care
By ANDY LANG
AP Newsfeotures Writer

That power lawn mower
won't stay in good running
order unless you take care
of it. That means. periodic
maintenance checks to pre-
vent serious trouble before it
occurs.
You can make most Of
these checks yourself. But
be sure you disconnect the
spark plug before working on
the engine or cutting blade.
This will prevent any acci-
dental starting of the motor
should the magnetic flywheel
be revolved inadvertently.
Bend the wire away from the
terminal so the spark cannot
jump a small gap.
How does a nonmechanic

mower in shape for the sea-
son? We asked an authority
and came up with this infor-
nation:
Drain oil NoN {cUr-cycle
engine (Which takes the oil
and the gas separately by
removing the oil filter plug
and oil drain plug. When
completely empty, replace
the drain plug and refill with
fresh, clean oil.
Fill the fuel tank with reg
ular gasoline. Do not use
high-test or white gas.
Remove the air cleaner. If
it is a dry-element type, tap
the element to remove dust
and dirt, or replace if filled
completely. If it is of the
oil-bath type, remove the
cleaner and dispose Of the
oil by cleaning the cup with a
solvent. Refill with fresh oil.
Check for loose nuts and
bolts that may cause damage
if not frightened. Also, tighten
all screws.
If the mower is a direct
mount rotary type, check
clutch, clutch adapter and
the bolt holding the blade,
making sure everything is
secure.
If the unit is a self-pro-
PEELED or riding type, check
the belts for fraying and
tightness. Make sure the
pulleys are free, lubricating
if necessary.
Check the wheels and wheel
bearings to be sure nothing is
loose.
Remove the spark plug to
make sure it is clean, not
fouled by SCOT or oil.
Before starting the ma
chine, turn the engine a few
times by pulling the starter
rope. This allows fabrication
to coat the bearings and CYL
inder walls prior to high
speed operation.
If you have an old power
mower and think perhaps the
engine should be replaced,
have a dealer check it. If the
cost of the replacement en-
gine is "a or more Of the price
Of a new mower. better get
a new mower. Most dealers
will give you a trade-in al

NAACP's Wilkins
Warns Republicans

NEW YORK-Citing published re-
ports that the Eisenhower Administra-
ton has sought or has acquiesced in
dropping anti-segregation amendment
from school aid BILL" NAACP Execu-
tive Secretary Roy Wilkins warns that
such action will not be helpful to
the Republican party.
In identical kilograms, dispatched
June 1, to Vice President Richard M.
Nixon and to Republican Senators
ThruSton B. Morton, Jacob K. Javits
and Hugh Scott, the NAACP leader
expresses the opinion that scuttling of
the Powell amendment by Admins
tration leaders would be taken by Ne
groes to mean that the Federal gov
ernment will give no aid whatever to
any affort to implement the Supreme
Court decision"
The current amendment, introduced
by New York Congressman Adam
Clayton Powell, was passed by the
House of Representatives on May 26
by vote of 2O6 to 189. 1t provides
for Withholding of federal funds from
school districts which ignore specific
court orders to deSegregate their pu-
bile school systems.
If the Administrator and Republi-
cans generally back down on the
Powell amendment, Mr.. Wilkins told
the Vice President and COP. Senate
leaders, ''the party will be saying to
Negro Americans everywhere that un-
der its leadership the federal govern
ment will give no aid whatsoever to
any effort to implement the Supreme
Court decision and indeed will freely
subsidize those areas which defy the
Court and continue in a program of
cheating millions of Negro children of
the constitutional rights to education
without segregation"
. This, the NAACP leader pointed
out, will not be helpful to the cause
in which you and your fellow party
members are interested"

Dead Woman Found On Desert
Dope Overdose
Believed Cause

The badly-decomposed body of
young woman, believed to be victim
of an overdose of narcotics, was found
Monday on the desert near 56th St.
and Williams Field Road by police.
Identified as Eleanor Cole, 26, the
victim had lived at 1909 E. Adams.
Police said she had been released from
Jail several days ago. The body was
turned over to the county for a post
mortem, and the medical examination
will determine what further action
authorities will follow.
The case is still under investigation,
although police doubt a foul play
angle. From undisclosed informantS,
police learned of the body and its
whereabouts. They assumed that death
occurred around May 2.
The body was turned over to the
Ragsdale Mortuary, where attempts
were made to locate known relatives,
who we're thought to be living in

AIusku's Negro
Legislator Here

Guests of the Woman's Division of

of challenge and opportunity in the
far northern 49th state.
Mrs. McSmith who with husband
James McSmith operates the McSmith
Appliance Company, was appointed to
the envied position by Alaska's gov
ernor. The post was created by the
elevation of a legislator to attorney
general when Alaska became a state.
The group enthusiastically received
the Alaska Legislator who was intro
duced by Mrs. Frances Adams, herself
no small figure in Democratic circles.
Mrs. Adams, mother of E, was chosen

THECHEF SAYS
Outdoor
Cookery
Mans Job

outdoor cooking is prima-
rily mans work; man sized
portions of simple foods of
the best quality should be
the rule.
Shopping for meat for the
outdoor grill presents differ
ent problems from that
cooked in the kitchen. Out of
doors, meat is the center of
the meal. The other things
should be easy to handle. and
should be foods which set off
the main dish. And appetite5,
too, are much heartier out of
doors; a pound of steak per
person is probably not too
much. Steaks and chops
should be cut thick; thin
meats have no place in out
door cookery; they cannot
be cooked quickly enough and
have no time to absorb the
special fiavors that meat
cooked outdoors acquires.
Even steak for sandwiches
should be cut from 12-to-1-
inch thick and grilled very
quickly.
Thick steak sandwiches are
delicious served on lightly
toasted and buttered French
or Italian bread. A tray Of
condiments for the sand
wicheS is good-relishes, thin
raw onion, sliced tomato, etc.
For a party pretty and SEN
sible arrangement is to use a
block of ice for your relish
tray; it is easy to chip inches
for each relish, and all ere
kept fresh and crisp.
Use Imagination
Be imaginative in your
choice of meats, looking for
ones which will be enchanced
and improved by this method
of cooking: veal kidney chops
cut l to Ia inches thick,
well marinated in a sauce
containing plenty of lemon
juice and butter, and grilled
slowly over medium Goals;
spareribs with a piquant
sauce; ham steak, grilled
slowly; thick mutton chops;
leg of lamb. boned and rolled
with a bit of mint and gar
lie inside, is delicious done
on an outdoor spit. Fresh
ham or leg of pork is the best
cut to roast on the fire, if
boned and rolled, it is easier
to carve. Thyme and ginger
rubbed on the pork add
greatly to the flavor;
chickens and turkeys, of
course. or liver.
Hamburgers should be
made from good ground beef,
lightly formed into thick
patties. They should be
grilled only at the last min
ute when everyone is ready.
Never, never let them sit
around waiting to be eaten.
All meats should be taken
out of the refrigerator at
least 2 hours before grilling.
Most meats are tenderer
and more flavorSome after 2
hours or more in a marinade
this can be simply oil and
lemon juice and some season.
ings, or the more elaborate
barbecue sauce with which
they will be basted while
cooking.
Keep it simple and be pre-
pared for second and third
helpings.
The drinks are important,
too. Cold beer is popular with
outdoor meals; a light Cali
fornia claret, an Italian VAL
policello and a French Beau
jolais are also recommended
for barbecue.

Now, probably all this is

somehow this one observer
cannot see it as all good.
Puebla is so madly progress

DAVID LAWRENCE
Our Allies Gel Some Hard Facts

cratic leaders fully UNDER
stand the danger to the dol
lars position in the world
and how important it is for
the United States to be re-
lieved of some Of the load Of
governmental payments now
going to Western Europe.
For, If relief isn't obtained
soon, the pressure in Con-
gress for restrictive legisla-
ton will grow. A crisis could
even arise that would force
the revaluation Of gold which
would. of course, hurt the
whole International trade
picture and affect adversely
business and employment
conditions inside the United
States.
There are plenty of people
in America who would well
come q stoppage of all for
eien aid on at least a sub
stantial cut in the program
and, If the dollar gets
weaker. such drastic action
may become inevitable.
1t was a painful thing to
have to do-to tell the West
ern European governments
that America needed their
aid immediately in balancing
the flow Of payments to and
from this country, but it had
to be done. Some of our
own diplomats, too, including
some State Department Of
ficials, were shocked, but the
fact is there are many folks
everywhere who think Ameri-
can spending abroad has no
limits and that the American
taxpayers earnings can be
conhscated at will for any
sentimental purpose.
The time has come for
realism about the threat to
Americas position today in
the monetary world. To get
the facts into the open. is
the only way to prevent a
much worse situation. The
all-important need Of the
hour is the defense Of the
dollar against revaluation.
This can be- accomplished
only by arousing the peoples
in Allied countries as well
as in our own to the alarm
ing nature of the dilemma
that faces the best friend
Western Europe has ever had
the United States-whose
flow of funds to Europe has
continued without inter-
ruption now for is consecu-
tive years since the war.

Incidents of Modernism Stir Ponq
OF Poignonce for q Changing Era

MEXICO CITY - In all
life there comes a moment,
a small distinct and poignant
space in time when a man
knows that a parting forever
is at hand.
1t may be a moment in
battle when he is certain,
beyond any mere prompting
Of mind, that he is going
forward into ultimate crisis.
He may live. He may die. But
from an instinct older by
ages than reason he is abso-
lutely sure that at all events
he will never. never be the
same again.
1t may be only that trifling
moment when it suddenly
strikes a man that melodies
he had long loved have gone
from his memory-when a
little and unimportart form
Of dream has left him for so
long as he may live. Such a
moment is significant only to
those who value a kind of
improvident happiness above
what is best for us.
It has now come, I believe,
in Mexico.
This land for all its strides
in the past few years, is not,
Of course. a decisive weight
in the cold war or anything
like that. The fate of no pos
sible world hangs upon what
they do or say in Mexico.
All the same, a moment Of
parting is here. and it de-
serves recognition by all who
have cherished this crazy,
this gallant and sometimes
brutal land. For now, while
the Mexicans are celebrating
