Clinton P.
Anderson. Sec
retary of Agri
culture; W.
Averell Harri
man. Secretary of Commerce; and
D. A. FitzGerald. Secretary
General* of the International
Emergency Food Council point
out In statements to the Amer
ican Fat Salvage Committee, that
the United States still lacks ade
quate supplies of fats and oils,
and that every drop of used cook
ing fat Is still vitally needed to
relieve national and international
shortages.
Anderson Praises Women
Praise for American women's
salvage efforts came from Secro
tary Anderson
who announced•
that America's
homemakers
have saved and
turned in over
(00 million
pounds of used
cooking fata
since 1942. 'This
Is an average
of nearly 20
pounds for each
family in tne w. a. Harriman
United Statds, and a record of
which every woman can be proud."
he stated.
Emphasising the_defteit in sup:
plies of inedible or industrial fats
and oils. Secretary Harriman
says. "We are particularly short
of industrial fats. Many, if not
most, of the things we all use and
wear require industrial fats, or
the products of industrial fats,
such as soaps, and glycerine, in
their manufacture.”
World Scarcity of Fata
Dr. FitzGerald explains that
total world production of fats and
oils m 1947 Win
be one-sixtb less
than in pre-war
years. “But at
the same time,"
he points out,
"there are many
more mouths to
feed and a tre
mendous job of
reconstruction
and rehabilita
D. A. FitzGerald tion to be done.
“In the face of this great world
wide shortage of fats and oils, it.
Is obviously most necessary to
conserve every possible pound of
fat. American women can make a
real contribution to the welfare
of their own country and to the
recovery of the rest of the world
by saving and turning in their
used cooking fat," Dr. FitzGerald
concluded.
Short Supply Continues
“These three statements amount
to a concerted appeal from our
government to keep household fat
salvage at its war-time level of
efficiency." Roy W. Peet. Chair
man of the American Fat Salvage
Committee, comments. “Conscien
tious kitchen fat salvage is a sure
way to increase supplies for indus
trial uses such as the making of
electrical appliances, fabrics, paints
and varn^saes, soaps, automo
biles and other goods.”
Primitive Origin
The universality of man’s love of
color was demonstrated early in
antiquity. Each region and sub-re
gion of the globe developed its own
dye sources. It is estimated that
nearly 1,000 different plants, vines,
shrubs and trees were, at one time
■or another, employed for extract,
ing dyes. However -Mllj a few of
the primiti.c ayes survived to an
cient and medieval times.

CHARGES DISCRIMINATION
IN U. N. HOUSING
Shad Polier, Vice President of
the American Jewish Congress,
I today charged the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company with
having corced the United Nations
to violate its own charter under
he agreement signed yesterday
(Mondavi which forced UN to
permit the practice of racial dis
crimination in housing projects
for UN employees in Peter Cooper
Village, a project financed by the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Cc
pany.
The statment stressed the inter
national significance of he suit,
brought by the American Jewish
Congress and the NAACP, which
challenges the right of the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Company
to practice discrimination in its
Stuyvesant America’s wilingness
to restore its moral stature in the
eyes of the world of its ability to
curb the private governments in
is midst so that the Unied Nations
in its won headquarters can live
up o the high aspirations and
ideals of its charter.”
COMPLETE STAEMENT:
“Americans today wil be cover
ed with shame and disgrace when
they learn that an American
corporation, the Metropolitan Life
Insurance Company, has dealt the
United Nations the most devastat
ing blow it has suffe'Kl since its
creation. By forcing the UN to
sign an agreement which will per
mit Metropolitan Life to practice
racial discrimnation in housing
projects for UN employees, the
company* has forced the UN to
violate one of the most fundamen.
tal principles of its charter.
Americans have long been aware
of the fact that ‘private govern
ments’ like the Metropolitan Life
are sometimes more powerful than
our public governments and our
Constitution. Eut the world will
learn with amazement that such
American priwae governments can
also be more powerful than all the
governments organized in the UN.
The suit brought by the American
Jewish Congress and the NAACP
to challenge the right of the Met
ropolitan to practice d'serimina
tion in its Stuyvc.'—t Town pro
ject now assumes much more than
state or even national significance.
It has become a foundamental
test of America’s willingness to
restore its moral stature in the
eyes of the world and of its ability
to curb the private governments
in its midst so that the United
Nations, in its own headquarte3,
can live up to the high aspirations
and ideals of ite charter/’

If you’re' planning to take your
baby along to the beach or cottage,
by all means include several extra
bottles of special baby oil in his
equipment. Baby’s skin, you know, |
is so much more sensitive than
grown-ups that a very small !
amount of sun can cause dangerous
burns and discomfort. Before ex
posing your baby to sun, be sure to
give his tender skin an extra coat
ing of the right kind of oil. In any
case babies should not be exposed
to direct sun too tong and sunburn
should be prevented.
’ Baby will enjoy his vacation es
pecially if you- remember to take
along a good supply of his special
strained foods. They’re so easy to
prepare, too—simply warm and
they're ready for serving.
By the way, your doctor has
probably recommended meat in
your baby's diet—it’s such a rich
source of protein and iron and nia«
cin. It's good news to all mothers
that specially prepared, strained
and dieed canned meats are now:
available ... made to doctor’s spe
cifications and bearing the seal of
approval of the American Medical
association.
If you are not yet familiar with
these meat foods for babies, by all
moans check with your doctor. He
will advise you just when to start,
using them for your baby's feed
ings.

A neighbor, Dorothy Wood, has
teen redecorating her house, and
the other afternoon she called me
over to see her handiwork. Well—
I was amazed at the changes she
had made and remarked at the pro
fessional touch that every room
had. Then I recognized that what
really gave each room such ■ a
modern touch was the metal mould
ing she had used. I had always ad
mired that kind of trim in the
dream house pictures you see in so
many popular magazines, really
professional jobs. So, it was hard
to believe that an amateur htfd ac
complished such results. She laugh
ed and said, “I’ll let you in on my
secret.”
First she led the way to the
basement and pointed with pride
to tne metai trim
bn the bar, the
fc)ing-pong table,
ind the wall it
self. Then Doro
;hy told me that
she had used a
> p e c i a 1 metal
moulding that makes it easy to
trim-it-yourself. You can cut it
with a file, apply it easily, and do
a professional lookir% job inex
pensively.
I decided right away to use the
same metal trim in my bathroom,
and when Dorothy showed me her
kitchen with its smartly trimmed
shelves, drainboard, cupboards, and
stairs adged in the same trim, 1
aaid to myself, “Dorothy, if you
can trim - it - yourself, there’s no
reason why I can’t — after all, 1
can use a hammer or put up a
curtain rod.”
That very afternoon, I went to
Hardy’s store and bought some of
this chfomtrim. They gave me an
instruction sheet showing lots of
otner uses that 1* \
never dreamed ofi
So, if you’re even
just a little han
dy, you should
try this new trim.
And you’ll have
fun doing it.
