Feed Germans:
Ask Norway?
President Truman has asked us to
reduce our diets in order to provide
food for impoverished foreign popu
lations. No one will refuse that hu
mane request, as long as the food
does not go to our former enemies
or to pseudo neutrals like Spain who
hepled our enemies.
In short, we should tighten
our own belts, if necessary, to
help our allies. But we should
not be asked to sacrifice oui 1 food
to make the Germans or Japs
fat and arrogant again. I
It is well to remember the charity
of Norway after the last war. In
sympathy for German children, she
took thousands of them into Norwe
gian homes and raised them with
Norwegian children.
When they were strong and
healthy again, they went back
to Germany. But did they feel
any gratutude for the kindness
they had received? The answer
to that is written in Norwegian
blood. l i >
The hunrgy German children
returned to Norway when the
next war broke out. They went
in uniforms of storm troopers,
killing, raping, deporting and
torturing the people who had
befriended them.
They laughed at the “softness” of
the kindly Norwegians Thejy used
as military information the know
ledge they had gained of Norw gian
geography while th Neorwegia: fed
and cared for them.
Human history records no
fouler betrayal than the invasion
of Norway by her adopted child
ren.
Germany evaded the penalty
of the first World War by the be
nevolence of her neighbors. Now
she is insolently squawking for
somebody to feed her again.
Let us, by all means, feed the vic
tims of Germany—our brave little
allies who, as prisoners of the “mas
ter race”, suffered more in a month
than the population of the United
States suffered, in the entire course
of the conflict.
Germany adopted as a matter of
military policy the starving of all
conquered countries. She did so in
order to wipe out the next genera
tion of solders that might block the
next German avalanche of aggres
sion.
She systematically starved
French, Belgian, Dutch, Polish,
Norwegian and Russian children
in the sadistic theory that dead
babies don’t grow up into ene
my soldiers.
Now Germany says she is hungry.
Well, let her scratch for her food.
As long as she is doing that she
is not scratching out the eyes of her
neighbors.
If we feed her now, we’ll fight
her later. Ask Norway?

Do your walls and woodwork need
spring cleaning? Here are some
suggestions farm families are using
for “Clean-up, fix-up” this month,
to remove the dust and smoke of
winter.
First, use your vacum cleaner, or
brush off surface dirt with a long
handled brush with soft hair or a
floor broom covered with soft dust
ing bag.
You can wash almost any surface
nainted with oil' paint if you use
’ukewarm water and mild soap jelly.
A.fter washing, rinse and dry the
paint. Wash with an up-and-down
stroke. Overlap your strokes to
avoid streaks.
Never use strong soap on paint.
The alkali in strong soap weakens
and discolors paint. And never use
coarse scouring powder. Coarse
scouring powder takes the surface
off the paint. Then the paint gets
dirty quicker and is harder to clean.
If some places on the paint need
scouring, use powdered chalk (whit
ing), or some other fine gentle
scouring powder.
The Extension Service suggests an
even easier way to wash painted
woodwork. Make a liquid glue solu
tion like this- Soak a half-tpound of
dry powdered glue in cold water.
Then add 2 quarts of boiling water.
Boil the glue and water 10 minutes.
Now you have liquid glue. Use a
cup of this liquid glue in each basin
of washing water. Simply dip your
soft cloth or sprong in the basin of
glue and water, wring out the cloth,
and go over the painted woodwork.
That’s all. No rinsing. No drying.
The glue cleans and also gives a
gloss to paint.
You may prefer to wash painted
walls with a special cleaning mix
ture of soap and water and tuitpen-
tine. Dissolve 2 tablespoons of mild
soap powder in one quart of warm
water. Then add 3 tablespoons of
turpentine and stir rapidly. Wash
the walls then rinse and dry with a
soft cloth.
If your walls are painted with
calcimine, you can’t wash them clean.
All you can do is to give them a
new coat of calcimine.
Perhaps your will paper is not
soiled all over, but there are just a
few grease Spots. Then, lay a clean
piece of white blotting paper over
the grease spot and press the blot
ter with a hot iron. This may melt
the grease into the blotter. Or. make
a paste of cornstarch and a cleaning
fluid. Spread this paste over the
grease spot. When the paste dries
and falls off the wall, it will take
the grease off with it. Sometimes
you need several applications of the
paste before all the grease comes
out.

REDSKIN BASEBALL SCHEDULE
CALLS FOR 12 HOME GAMES
Coach W. L. Laval sent twenty-
six candidates for the 1946 diamond
Lavaliens into their second week of
drills here with daily practice games
on the college diamond, and announc
ed a twenty-four game schedule that
includes twelve home games. With
prospects for one of the best col
lege baseball teams in the South, the
Indians will bring to the college
field every other college team in
the state, three North Carolina
schools, the University of Georgia,
some professional clubs, and the sol
dier outfit from Fort Jackson.
“The boys are all good ball play
ers,” said the Newberry mentor,
dean of South Carolina baseball
tutors, “And provided they don’t
get too cocky, and can round into
shape quickly, we’ll have one of the
best clubs that has ever been in
this section.” The Indians, who
have finished consistently in the
upper division of the Palmetto col
lege circuit since Laval came to tu
tor the Braves in the ways of the
basepaths and outfields, won the
state championship in 1942.
The twenty-two game card, which
opens here on March 27, when Fort
Jackson invades the college field,
lists two games each with Lenoir-
Rhyne, Catawba, and Guilford, all
of North Carolina; the University of
Georgia, and six S. C. college clubs.
Utica, a Class A team from New
York in‘spring training at Rock Hill
will play the Redskins here on April
10.
The schedule, with most home
games occuring on Wednesday or
Saturday afternoons, follows: Mar.
27, Ft. Jackson; Mar. 30, Lenoir-
Rhyne; April 3, Guilford; 4, Guil
ford; 5, Erskine at Due West; 6,
P. C.; 9, Wofford; 10, Utica (prof
essional); 12, Furman at Greenville;
16, Catawba; 20 Clemson; 24, Ers
kine; 26, Lenoir-Rhyne at Hickory,
N. C.; 27, Catawba at Salisbury, N.
C.; May 1, P. C. at Clinton; 4, Clem
son at Clemson; 8, Furman; 9, Wof
ford at Spartanburg; 13, Carolina
at Columbia; 15, Carolina; 20, Geor
gia at Athens, Ga.; 21, Georgia.
