The Gumbo Story
Told In All
IfS TuSfineSS
BY THERESA FAMBRO
in the Chicago Defender

When African slave cooks were
shipped to New Orleans to serve
the pampered beauties, wives Of
French aristocrats, they brought
with them an ingredient which
gave unique character to Louisiana
stews, a tapering green pod which
they called "kingombo," which the
Arabs in Africa called "uehka,"
and which today we know as okra.
The stews made with okra were
called gombos or gumbos after the
African "kingombo," and the Afri-
can cooks worked out strangely
wonderful combinations.
A gumbo might be made with
crabs freshly caught in the neigh
boring bayous, or with tender
chicken and large fat oysters, or
with ham and shrimp. A "maigre"
gumbo for Lent was made with
seven greens, seasoned with salt
pork.
The women of New Orleans dis
dained to try native Indian dishes
with one exception. They bought
powdered sassafras which the
Indian called file" to use as thick
ening for stew.
This curiously fragrant herb had
to be added to the liquid of the
stew after the French women re-
fused outright to make use of In
dian corn, and flour was scarce.
The file powder met an important
need for society in which sauces
were of utmost Importance.
Often file powder was used tc
thicken gumbo, and finally vers.
ions of gumbo were developed thai
contained only the file powder, nc
okra at all.

Memphis March

MEMPHIS, Aug. 81 APP
Sign-carrying Negro marchers
and white counter-marchers
walked side by-side through
downtown M mphis today
without incident.
Some 400 Negroes, protest.
ing the extended day program
in Negro high schools, were
met by a group Of about so
white persons as they began
their peaceful stroll down
Main street.
Although the two groups
walked almost shoulder-to-
shoulder at times, there were
no incidents. At the end of the
march both groups dispersed
quietly.
Negroes have protested that
the extended day program is
a means of maintaining segre-
cation. The school board said
it is necessary to relieve
crowded classrooms. The pro-
gram sends students to school
at staggered starting times.

ECONOMY
Signs Of Strength
Noted as Fall Neors

Auto sales later this year will
be crucial in determining the
economy's pace during the win
ter. A sharp decline in auto
sales-considered possible but
not likely-could cause trouble
A major threat to the econ
omy was eliminated, at least
temporarily, when Congress en-
acted emergency legislation to
block the railroad strike sched-
uled for last Thursday.
Mixed Blessing
Analysts recently have noted
a new sign of strength in the
economy, but it is a mixed
blessing.
Wholesale prices, which had
been stable or declining, have
started inching up. Consumer
prices, which had increased
very little, lately have risen a
bit faster.
Price increases normally &C.
company an economic upturn.
Economists reason that prices
would not rise in the absense
of strong demand, and demand
spur expansion Of, the economy.
Rising prices also could cause
trouble, of course, but officials
so far see no signs of major
increases. Unless price move
ments go further than ex-
pected, authorities are not like
ly to launch an anti-inflation
campaign.
They are, however. keeping a
close watch on prices, to make
sure a few spiral of initiation
does not get started.

Meanwhile, as the Nation

no easing of the twin prob
lens that have been dominat-
ing the American labor scene
in recent months: discrimina-
ton and unemployment.
JObless Problem
Politicians, labor and relig-
lous leaders, almost without ex-
ception, touched on both in
their Labor Day statments.
AFL-CIO President George
Meaney said that persistent
large scale unemployment is at
the root of the Nations most
serious economic difficulties.
Without basic improvement in
our unemployment situation,
without a considerable reduc-
ton in joblessness, in the num-
Der of unemployed, there can
be no solution to the economic
imbalance in our country.

tant economic indicators have
continued rising or have de-
clined less than anticipated.
Liquidation of steel inven-
tories has been comparatively
mild, and users are expected to
increase purchases soon. Auto
sales, although slower than ear
lier this year, still are strong.
Retail sales generally are ris-
ing steadily.
Sales by manufacturers also
are increasing. The industrial
production index rose in July,
instead of declining as many
forecasters had expected. Hous-
ing starts fell off in July from
very high levels, but still look
pretty good.
Business spending on new
plant and equipment is ex-
pected to increase steadily, al
though modestly, through the
rest Of this year.
GIMP Still to Increase
Looking at the total economy,
forecasters expect gross nation
al product - total output of
goods and services-to increase
almost as much in the July
September quarter as in the
preceding three months.
That would be considered a
good record in the face of ad-
verse factors present during the
summer, and would set up a
solid base for better-than-
sonal gains in the fall and
winter.

Shooting Victims
Family to Offer
Reward for Tip

The family of Newell W.
Ellison, jr., who was shot and
killed while walking his dog
last Sunday, will offer a reward
for information leading to the
arrest of the person or persons
responsible for his death.
Howard c. Westwood, at
torney spokesman for the fam

will be announced later this
week.
Meanwhile, Deputy Police
Chief John B. Layton reported
yesterday that police still have
not come up with any leads in
the case.
Mr.. Ellison, 81, was shot
twice while walking his dog in
the 1900 block of Kalorama
road NV. about 1885 am.
Police are theorizing that the
gunner stopped Mr.. Ellison as
he and his basSett hound were
strolling past the home of
Clarence Aspinwell at 2340
Kalorama road. 1t is not known
whether he was resisting
robbery since his wallet was
found later with an undeter-

sing.

exempted from the proposed
changes.
The changes would also
abolish the present restriction
that only one building may be
constructed on a lot.
They would allow several
buildings to be constructed on
a large lot, an advantage to
public housing, apartment anc
other large projects, according
to the coming advisory council
headed by R. o. Clouser, Dis
trict Zoning Commission direc-
tor Of planning.
One of the benefits of this
change would be greater flexi-
bility in placing of buildings on
a site and elimination of the
requirement that each struc-
ture must have it's own sepa-
rate connection for various
utility services, such as water,
sewer and electrical services.
Edwin Weihe, architect and
chairman of the coming SUBJ
committee Of the Washington
Building Congress, said his
groups favors the changes in
principle.
These changes would have
a beneficial effect because they
would permit greater flexibili-
ty in design of buildings and
would lower the costs for utili-
ty connections" Mr.. Weihe
said.
Norman Glasgow, prominent
coming attorney, called the
changes "a bold and revolution
airy step-a great improve
ment."
He said that at first the
changes would benefit primari-
ly large developers such as the
sponsors of the Watergate,
Columbia Plaza and public
housing projects.
1T will permit more advan-
tageous use of large sites by
allowing buildings, for example,
to be placed together on the
best land and use of the less
satisfactory area of the site for
parking. 1t will also help to
create larger open space areas

Delay to Tax Bill

Committee will have to inter-

time in November to pass an
other extension before the end
of that month.
When the Senate meets Tues
day it will begin debate on eX-
pansion of the manpower de-
velopment and training act
which was recommended in the
Presidents civil rights message
as one step to equip unemployed
persons for better job Oppor-
tunities. 1t is one of the less
controversial features of the
civil rights program, and prob
ably will pass.
This will be followed on Sep
TENDER 9 by the partial nuclear
test ban treaty, which is ex-
Ipected to take a week or 10
days.
Aid Bill Comes Up
Meanwhile, the Senate For
eign Relations Committee will
try to complete action on the
Presidents $4.5 billion foreign
aid authorization bill, from
which the House slashed about
81 billion. The Senate will try
to dispose of this controversial
issue late in September before
tackling civil rights.
Still in the background, but
of major Importance, are at
least eight appropriation bills
which have not yet passed the
Senate. These include the SAT
billion defense money bill, and
a foreign aid appropriation bill,
which cannot pass the House
until both houses agree on the
foreign aid authorization meas
ure.
The Senate also is expected
to act before it adjourns on an
omnibus aid to education bill.
The House has already passed
a bill to aid medical and dental
schools and a college aid
measure.
This imposing array of con-
troversial legislation means that
this easy-going session of Con-
greSs will have to go into high
