BY WAITER HACKETT

HE WAS whitehaired lady, well
- advanced in years and not exactly
smartly dressed. She walked into a
local liquor store and said to the clerk,
Il want an inexpensive French Bur
gundy to 60 with my minute steak"
For $1.35 she walked out with her
wine.
The clerk said to me, Were SELL
ing a lot more table wine than we
used to-"
His observation is well-founded.
According to a large distributor,
people in Washington today are drink
ing at least 200 per cent more wine
than they we're five years ago, and that
is leaving the vino" brigade out of the
picture. Washington people probably
drink more wine than people Of almost
any other American city of compar-
able size.
The housewife is learning that
wine added to certain soups, stews,
cuts of meat and chicken can enhance
flavor. For example, she is learning
that marinating an Inexpensive pot
roast in red wine Bordeaux or Bur-
gundy) before cooking it adds a gas
trOnomic flip.
There are several reasons why
wine drinking in Washington has in
creased, both at home and in restau-
rants. The millions of Americans who
have travelled through Europe since
the end of World War II, the thousands
of American families living on the Con-
tinent and other thousands of our mill
tary personnel stationed in Europe
have picked up first-hand knowledge
of wines, however superficial
Wine importers and wholesalers,
also California and New York winners,
are carrying on large advertising and
promotion campaigns to acquaint the
public with wines. Restaurant wine
cards, including some Washington
ones, quite often advise what wines
should be drunk with meat, fish and
fowl In addition, some hostesses feel
that serving wine lends them a Con-
tinental cachet, which is just as well,
for to wash down good food with ice
water is an insult to whoever cooked
tho vrnnoI

who carried on trade with France,
Spain, Italy and Portugal probably
knew more about wines than present
generation members of the same
families.
My great-grandfather used to i'm
port Canary, Madeira and Bordeaux
wines by the cask for his own use. On
the other hand, my grandmother in
Rhode Island used to make an elder
berry wine, and had an aunt in Mas
sachusetts who made dandelion wine.
There was time when l thought they
tasted fine; at least they were strong. In
my own home, table wine appeared
only at Thanksgiving and Christmas,
champagne only at a birthday party
and New Years Eve; and somewhere
in the sidebOard was bottle each of
Madeira, port and sherry.
However, my fondness for wine
did not begin at home nor, years later,
during my long years in Europe. It
started with Italianate relatives of
some prep school friends of mine, who
used to invite me to Sunday afternoon
dinner. In warm weather, these meals
used to take place at a long table under
a grape arbor. Such meal was a gas
tronomic dolce rita which began with
cold, thick minestrone, clans alImari-
nara, spaghetti, chicken, veal, salad
and fresh fruit packed into bowl of
ice water. II ended with cafe espresso.
The wine, usually red, came from Italy
or California or perhaps from some
neighbor's miniature and non-licensed
vineyard.
VT all the people who came from
Europe to America, the Italians knew
as well as any other group how wine
could complement fine meal.
The grandfather of one of these
friends of mine used to say, "Un giorno
senza vino un giorno senza sole" "a
day without wine is day without SUM.
That was delivered before the meal.
After eating, he would roar, "Silenzio!"
and with that would sleep on the long
bench. He drank two bottles of wine a
day and lived to be 90.
Years later when I was living in
Italy and drinking the red wines of
billy Piedmont, the whites from Lake
Garda, the more delicate ones from the
Castelli Romani, just out of Rome, the
words of the old grandfather would
come to mind.
Regarding the famous Italian
Chianti, the only true one comes from
a small area in the wonderful hill
country hafXuaan EInronnn a. cs
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-03-24

NAany liquor stores in Washington
stock large supplies Of wines, foreign
and domestic, at reasonable prices.
For as little as 90 cents you can buy an
ordinary imported wine. Comparable
California types run a bit more.
What is the difference between a
bottle Of Chablis for 80 cents and one
for $2.15 in liquor store, or bottle of
Bordeaux in a restaurant for $3.50 as
opposed to one for $3.50? The answers
obvious you get what you pay for.
With practically all of US Ameri-
cans, wine drinking is an acquired
taste, no matter fit began seven gener-
atoms ago. AS matter of fact, the 18th

EDITORIAL
AGAIN, MISSISSIPPI

FEW SHOTS have been heard round the world with
sound resounding force as the one that killed Medgar
rvers. me ofyear Old neld secretary tor the NAACP in Miss
isslppi. AS soon a the shot was fired leaders everywhere (even
incmamg the South) rushed to condemn the act, and to explain
that this was not the doing of responsible persons. But the
faint still remains.
THIS COWARDLY ACT, the elimination of a seemingly
endless program Of harrassment, casts a dark shadow over the
image OF America, and places US in the worse possible light
before the world.
EVERS HAS NOW become a martyr. He died in the
cause Of freedom, a freedom which his race never fully enjoyed
even lOU wears after the Emancipation PROCLAMATION. The
immediate objective of his work was the employment OF a
Negro on the Jackson police force, and the formation OF a BIZ
racial group for discussion of the many pressing problems
facing that city. That was all
U IN JACKSON, Mississippi, any demand, however
slight or significant, sets up violent reactions from the white
community, and battle lines are drawn. The admission OF
Meredith to the University became a national issue, involving
federal troops, and the loss of life of two people. Against a
backdrop of college entrances in America, this one admission
became world famous, and ridiculous.
OPTIMIsTs express the hope that this dastardly act will
nerhaps touch the conscience OF the people of the sovereign
state Of Mississippi. But this is but a hope. This killing came
within "a hours after President Kennedy had made an imPas-
stoned call to the nation for recognition of constitutional rights
of the Negro people.
PROMISES H A the brave murderer who shot Evers
in the back will be apprehended, sound empty, indeed With
in the past year a number of indignation leaders have been
killed. No arrests. No apprehensions, and OF course, no trials.
And it strains the Imagination to even think of an allwhite
Jury convicting Evers killer.
E EVEN THOUGH Mississippi may be without much
conscience, the rest of the nation is aroused, and the impact

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
Office Of Emergency Planning
Washington. D. c.

President Kennedy has proclaimed March, 1868 as Red
Cross month in recognition Of the many humanitarian actvl-
ties Of the American National Red Cross.
The year 1868 also commentaries the centennial ann1ver-
sary of the international Red Cross Movement.
Beth in peace and war, the American people have looked
to the Red Cross as a source of help in time of need. Its ser
vices have ranged from battlefield relief and comfort for our
men in uniform to the immediate assistance of people IN com
munities struck by natural disaster.
AS Director of the Office of Emergency Planning, | have
been privileged to eyewitness the magnificent contributions
Of the American Red Cross when hurricanes, storms, tire and
flood have caused hardship to communities throughout Anne
RIGA. It is an inspiring sight watching the Red Cross move
speedily and efficiently to aid the injured, the hungry and
those left homeless.
Join with millions of my fellow citizens in urging CON
tinued and mounting support for the Red Cross, and | salute
this organization which, in spirit and substance, represents
the noblest of virtues in America-the desire and the deeds OF
our citizens in responding to the call of less fortunate neigh
bors. &C.,
til my earnest hope that ~thisyear's drive for more volun-
teers and financial support for this private arm of the public
wel-being will be more successful than ever before.

Editor

Christiansted, St. Croix
U. S. Virgin Islands
Dear Sir:

Dear Sir:
I want to thank you for print
ing MI. Canaday's letter on the
subject, Liquidation of the Virgin
Island Corporation. In his letter,
Mr.. Canaday spelled out the OBJ
vious and highlighted a situation
that the veriest ounces could see
and smell without half trying.
The amazing thing is that this
detailed analysis did not come
from sources sworn to. put the in
terest of the Virgin Islands first
and foremost. Even the Voice of
the cane growers who stand in the
forefront path of the disaster that
would overtake the Virgin Islands
as a whole and St. Croix in par
ticular is only raised to a murmur
and that querulously, when it
should be a great gong sounding
alarm and outrage at such callous
and cold disregard in high places,
of the peoples welfare. AS Mr.,
Canaday shows, the claimed losses
are paper losses with no viable
and sustained effort to correct
the condition causing those losses.
Vicorp was set up, it seems to
me, as a means of backing up the
economy of the Virgin Islands,
and not a money making and
speculative venture. But it has
made money as the records show,
and it is downright foolish # 90
positively and designedly wicked
to cut off such a needed economic
mainstay without making com
pletely sure that a going and far
reaching project is ready to take
its place.
Thanking you for the opportun
ity of expressing concern as a citi
zen and taxpayer in the Virgin Is
lands as well as one on the main
land, I am,
Very truly yours.
