REPUBLICANS HELD THEIR
CONVENTION HERE TODAY
(Continued from Page One)
Washington constitutes, we hold,
the only effectice weapon against
inefficiency, waste and incompet
ence or against any other feature
that will retard the winning of
the war.
2. We demand that no official
or group of offwials be permitted
after the war to continue to im
pose permanently upon our citi
zens those restrictions and limi
tations upon freedom which, dur
ing the war, are cheerfully borne
as essential for the national safety.
Our nation's return to peace must
mark our resumption of the tradit
ional American personal freedom
of life.
3. We endorse the candidacy
of all Republican Senatorial and
Congressional nominees, together
with all the Republican nominee*
for state and county offices, and
recommend them to the voters as
capable and economical and de
voted to the American theory of
government and way of life, and
we pledge them our hearty sup
port.
4. We commend the patriotic,
efficient, economical administra
tion of our state government un
der the leadership of Governor
Dwight Griswold.
5. We recommend our candi

commend him to all'voters. He
has been farmer, laborer and
merchant and is familiar with
and sympathetic to all the many
problems of each.
6. We condemn the present
primary system and advocate its
amendment so that a convention
of the party may, prior to the pri
mary, examine the qualifications
of the several candidates who
aspire for the offices to be filled
and by vote recommend to the
party those most qualified and
capable.
7. We invite all citizens who

Pointers For Removal
Of Fruit Stains
Fresh fruits to eat are one of
the pleasures of summertime, but
they often leave marks on table
linen and clothes that become
ugly stains unless they are treat
ed promptly and correctly.
As part of the wartime cam
paign to conserve fabrics, the
county agent’s office this week
furnished some tips on removal
of fruit stains from cottons and
linens.
Start working on stains while
they are still fresh and damp, if
possible. In any case, remove
them before you launder the fab
ric. Alkalis, such as in soap, and
heat from the iron “set” some
fruit and berry stains, making
them difficult and sometimes
even impossible to get out.
Boiling water will remove most
fruit stains from white or color
fast cottons or linens. Stretch the
stained cloth over a bowl, and
fasten with a string so it cannot
slip off. Then pour on the water
from a height of 3 or 4 feet. If
necessary, rub the fabric between
applications of boiling water, to
help loosen the stain. Sometimes
even warm water will work suc
cessfully in removing a stain.
If the stain is not gone com
pletely when you have finished
the water treatment, put a little
lemon juice on the spot and put
it in the sun to bleach. Or you
can use one of the chemical
bleaches, such as hydrogen per

To remove stains from fresh
peaches, pears, and plums, use
cold water and glycerine. First,
sponge the stain well with cool
water. Then put several drops of
glycerine, or a soapless shampoo,
on the stain—enough to cover it.
Work in by rubbing the fabric
between your hands. Let it stand
for several hours, then put on a
few drops of vinegar or oxalic
acid. Allow it to remain for a
minute or two, and then rinse
well in water.
