Avoid food
poisoning on
July a picnic

The great American holi-
day - the July 4th weekend
is almost here again.
For millions of American
families it will be a four-day
holiday this year. And for
almost every family the long
holiday weekend will bring
at least one family picnic.
The July 18th picnic is
as traditional i'm America as
the hot dog - which often
is a main staple of the pic
mic lunch. Even the flies
and ants have a big time at
picnics.
But now and then picnics
end in tragedy = the tragedy
of food poisoning. Most foods
spoil quickly in hot weather
and away from refrigeration.
If there are a few staphylo-
coccic bacteria present, they
need only a few hours time
and a warn temperature to
grow rapidly. Some foods can
become poisoned in as little
as five or six hours on a hot
day.
There are some easy and
simple ways to avoid food
poisoning on a picnic. One
valuable item is a good por-
table icebox. Chill the foods
thoroughly in the refrigerator
at home. Use plenty of ice.
Make sure the lid is tight.
This will keep your perish
ables fresh.
It's actually not very diff
ficult to insure safe picnic
meals, just follow your home
practice of refrigerating the
that need it. If you
make up a hamper of sand
load it into your hot
auto trunk, head for the
beach, and eat many hours
later well, you're asking
for trouble.

Opportunity Missed

The British had a grand con-
cept of a multi-racial society
in central Africa. But they be-
lieve the federal government
in Salisbury failed to grasp
the opportunity AS a result
the word federation became
unacceptable to Africans.
The elimination of this fail
ure is seen in London to be
the defeat in December, 1862,
of Sir Edgar Whitehead's gov
eminent in Southern Rhode
STA. Sir Edgar, it is said, was
not tough enough to win a
majority of white voters in
Southern Rhodesia yet was too
timid to set up a franchise
WHICH would assure him
enough African votes.
AS a result a right-wing
government headed by Winston
Field was returned to power
in Southern Rhodesia with the
aim Of maintaining white rule.

Central African
Federation
Worry British

Britain's Deputy Prime Min
kter r. A. Butler left London
by mir Friday to wrestle with
the complex and. hazardous
problem of unscrambling the
Central African Federation OF
RhDdesia and Nyasaland.
Mr.. Butler calls 1t one of the
hardest tasks in his. long and
varied political career.
The Federal Prime Minister
in Salisbury, Sir Roy Welen-
sky, has denounced the British
Government for treacherously
Stabbing him in the back.
The basis for this charge is
that in 1856 British ministers
in London gave pledge that
the Federation of Rhodesia and
Nyasaland would not be broken
up except with the agreement
of the four governments con-
cerned - those of Southern
Rhodesia, Northern Rhodesia.
Nyasaland, and the Federation
Government itself.
But events in Africa moved
faster than was foreseen. Afri-
can governments have come to
power and they see the Rho
desian Federation as one DOM
mated by whites from the Rho
desian capital of Salisbury
through the federal govern
ment.
Britain has already conceded
the right of Nyasaland to Sc
cede from the Federation. This
is what Sir Roy calls "treach-
cry"
But the British Governments
reply is that it has been neith-
er possible nor desirable to re-
siSt what the British Prime
Minister called "the wind of
change blowing throughout
Africa"

agencies, in order to circum-
vent the executive order.
Meanwhile, the FILA, an agen-
cy under DR.. Viewers direc-
ton, announced it had no juris-
diction in the first complaint
filed under the housing order.
The complaint was filed with
outgoing FILA Commissioner
Neal J. Hardy by Roland E.
Barnes, colored principal of an
elementary school at Rockville,
Md.
Barnes charged that two
Maryland developers, Abraham
S. Sind, of Chevy Chase, and
Israel Cohen, of Bethesda, re-
fused to sell him a house in
their Seven Locks Meadow SUBJ
division because of his race.
In notifying Barnes of the
action, Hardy said the princi-
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1963-01-26

On the other hand The
Times (London) thinks the
British Government. should
show rather more humility in
the face of the protests of Sir
Roy and white Rhodesians that
they were betrayed.
Past pledges of British minis
tiers should not be lightly dis
missed, says The Times.
! In the visit he now is under
taking, Mr.. Butler is apparently
to try to get back on reason
able terms with Sir Roy.
He will seek to guide discus
sions with the three territorial
governments toward the con-
version of the federation into
the closest possible economic
association.
In the British House of Com
mons before Christmas Mr..
Butler said the British Govern
ment had no plans for granting
independence to Southern Rho
desia prior to its having a con-
stitution which would allow it
to have a government repre-
sentative of the majority of the
population.
Mr.. Butler could hardly face
q more difficult situation. He
admits he does not expect an
immediate solution from the
present visit. But he hopes to
find a new basis for a solution.
