MOTHER FOUND a table
of slate, ground level, in a
clearing among pine trees
about 10 feet above the brook.
We spread a freshly laun-
dered white tablecloth and
unpacked the hamper. 1t was
one of those wicker baskets
with one handle and two
hinged tops.
Come to think of it, we had
carried that two miles to get
to the picnic place. 1t never
seemed heavy-such was our
anticipation-but the empty
basket did seem a burden on
the way back.
We lit a little fire with dry
twigs. Didn't send up over a
cupful of smoke. Indians
might see it. The fire was
not for frankfurterS. This
was before they had become
a must on picnics. 1t was to
make a cup of tea for Mother.
AS I remember it. the ham
per contained minced ham
sandwiches. The desert was
homemade jelly roll made
with homemade grape jelly.
We returned to Hampton
Brook again and again. We
found that if we waded across
the creek upstream is was
less than a mile.
The older boys laughed at
us. They told us the fish were
not trout; just suckers"

ployment. Millions of he youth OF
America are denied full educa-
tional opportunities. Millions Of
farm families under Republican,
ism are being forced ever down
ward towards relative and abso-
lutte poverty; millions of our
senior citizens are forced to live
on pittances and millions of
American families are today liv-
ing in urban and rural slums.
And yet everytime that your
Democratic Congress passes a
housing bill to get these people
into decent homes the Republi-
can President comes up with a
veto; and he's about to do it
again!
As Adlai Stevenson said at Los
Angeles in 1852, There are two
respects in which the Republican
leaders have a wonderfully con-
sistent record. They never speak
well of Democrsts-in fact they
don't even speak well of one am
other any more. And they have
always been afraid of tomorrow.
Seldom has there been a bold
idea for building America bigger
and stronger for the future but
that Republican voices are raised
saying you can't do that. The Re-
publican leadership sometimes
talks big, but it acts small. Time
after time, it has underestimate
the needs and wants and demands
Of this country and its people"
Last week your Democratic
Congress passed an emergency
housing measure authorizing Fed
eral purchases of one billion dol
lars in mortgages on new homes
costing $13,5OO or less to get
American families out of the
slums, and what does that Repub-
lican in the White House say he's
going to do about it? He says he's
going to veto! He says he may
have to leave the summit con-
ference in Paris with Khrushchev,
Gaulle and Me MILAN to fly
back to Washington to veto not
only the Democratic housing bill
but also to veto a $251, 900 de-
pressed areas bill passed by the

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
ST. Thomas. Virgin Islands = May s, 1860

Fellow Democrats, on behalf
of the Democratic Party of the
Virgin Islands I wish to vel
come you, the delegates from
the loyal Democratic Clubs of
Frederiksted, Christiansted,
ST. John and St. Thomas to
this Quadrennial Convention
called for the purpose Of writ
ing a Democratic Platform
e~lecting state officers and
choosing delegates to the Los
Angeles Democratic Conven-
ton who will participate in
the selection Of the next pre-
sident Of the United States.
And let me assure you here
and now that the next man to
occupy the White House as
chief executive of these Unit
ed States will be a Democrat
in the great tradition Of Harry
S.. TRUMAN and the greatest of
them all, Franklin Delano
Roosevelt.
The mainland Republican press
would like you to believe that the
people Of the United States are
satisfied with the mo Go Go
Slow Veto" administration of
the present incumbent Of the
White House. This Republican
press would like you to believe
that the American people will
give a vote of confidence in Mo-
vember to the Republican Party
which for eight years has failed
to meet the challenge of our
times. A Republican Party that
IS more interested in a balanced
budget, big business and special
interest than the fact that despite
Madison Avenue slogans and
cliches, one-fourth of our nation
is today living in poverty. There
is r~ecurfent large scale unem-

move that has been made by the
Democrats to help the people Of
America has been Systematically
opposed or attached or undercut
by members of the party of the
past-the boys whose elephant
cannot figure out whether to fol-
low its trunk or its tail.
OF course I know that the Re
publicans call any government
activity on the peoples behalf
socialism-creeping and crawling.
I'm no more in favor of socialism
than anybody else and / certainly
dislike things that creep; but if
1 don't like creeping socialism
there is something | dislike even
more, and that's galloping re-
action"
Republicans are not interested
in people. Oh yes, I know, we
hear a lot of talk from Republi-
can Administration both national
" and locally about balanced
budgets. But the hungry cannot
eat a balanced budget. The bank
rupt farmer sees no salvation in
balanced budget. The American
family that lives in a slum hates
this balanced budget for denying
his family a decent home. decent
schooling for his children and
adequate hospitals and medical
care for his sick.
Do you honestly believe that
these millions of Americans are
going to vote for another Repub-
lican Administration after what
they have suffered for the past
eight years? No! for eight years
these people have cried out to,
the Republicans for help and for
eight years the cry has come
from the White House: veto, veto,
veto! What America wants today;
what America needs today. what
must have today if it is
to meet the challenge of tomor-
row is dynamic forcefu1 courage
GUS leadership such as was given
This country under the Democrats
during the glorious years Of
Franklin D. Roosevelt, n of the
greatest presidents Of these Uni
ed States. Here was a man, here
was a leader. who was truly first
in war, first in peace and always
first in the hearts of his country
men. Here was a giant of a man
who gave courage to a nation in
its darkest hour when he told the
American people that the only
they had to fear was fear
The Bible tells us to feed
the hungry and Franklin D. Roo,
sevelt and your Democratic Party
fed them! clothe the naked; and
brought America out of the great
depression a prouder and a great
er Nation!

Please explain the differ

and oils used in cooking, asks

There are three main groups
Of the fats and oils used for
all culinary purposes: hydro
genated shortening, marga-
rines. and vegetable oils.
Hydrogenated shortcomings
are made from cottonseed,
soybean, corn or peanut oils.
They may be made from
only one of these oils, or be a
blend of two or more. The
hydrogenated shortcomings are
Semi-Solid. and easily retain
their firm consistency at room
temperature, the result Of a
chemical process known as
hydrogenatiori, which imparts
hydrogen into the liquid oils.
Some vegetable shortcomings,
however, do need refrigera-
tion, so be sure to read the
label.

food. generally made of cot

Appetizers

Bite-size pieces of liver
sausage. formed into balls
and rolled in finely chopped
parsley, are a tempting addi-

Another suggestion is to
spread small round crackers
with a, sharp cheese spread
and to top them with bits
Of chopped cooked bacon.

A and D are added to fortify
this food. It's uses range from

baking and frying. Marga-

Salad oils are the pourable
vegetable oils: soybean, cot

olive oil. Olive oil is generally
reserved for salad making: 1t

Activities on the water create

merchants OF a small town.
You almost always get your
moneys worth, which is
something I cannot say for
discount houses.
Woolen clothes come in
handy in the winter months:
even occasionally, a topcoat.
1t will actually freeze or snow
about once in 10 or 20 years,
but if you will be outdoors
much, woolen clothes are a
must.
Air conditioners are needed
in the summer. 1t is hot but
not oppressive. Climate af-
fectS people differently so
that is a problem you'll have
to decide for yourself. Re-
tired people are moving to
Panama City, but they all
seem to go to work after they
get there. You'll find no "St.
Petersburg Green Benches"
in Panama City.
The city has two nice ho-
tells, a nice little airport,
good movie houses. two radio
and television stations, Tyn-
dali Air Force Base (but it
isn't an army town., two new
bank buildings. good car
dealers, real estate people. etc.
For recreation, you have
excellent fresh and salt
water fishing and skin div
ing. My hunting is all under
water. but others tell me the
shooting is excellent also.
Remember Panama City is a
summer resort, especially
Panama City Beach which l
personally dislike for its
Coney 1Sland atmosphere. IL
is full of young rock and roll
erS, and in general the kids
are noisy but pretty we'll

If you like the mountains,
you probably won't like a
seacoast town, but I find the
city a most delightful place
and plan to retire there my
self.

this and I will be very glad
to answer any more ques-
tions. You can get most of
them answered by going there

Hooked Rugs

Mrs. J. E. Mex, Falls Church
I am interested in hooking
a small scatter rug and have
discovered there are two
methods Of doing it. One is
with a latchet hook and
needs no frame and the other
is on a frame. The latchet
hook method is not as ex-
pensive. Could readers who
have hooked rugs either way
recommend either way as
against the other? One store
told me that the latchet hook
method was poor as the yarn
in the rug tended to pull out,
but I cannot see why it would
more than in the rug made
on the frame. I would cer-
tainly appreciate any help
that anyone could give me.
