Ala. Boswell Amendment
Gets Federal Hearinff
MOBILE. Ala. (ANP)—An-
other anti-Negro , „ voting law,
the Boswell amendment to the
Alabama constitution, faced a
federal test last week when
three federal judges held a
hearing here. Final decision
has not yet been announced.
Til's amendment, considered
by many the last hope in the
South to keep Negroes from
voting, requires voters to “un,-
deratend and explain the U. S
Constitution to the satisfaction
of local registrars.
Two different suits arc being
heard on this amendment with

the fina l determining
the constitutionality of the
j aw
Case one involves 10 Negrces
of Mobile who are seeking
$100,000 damages. Their attor¬
ney, George N Leighton of Chi¬
cago, dropped charges of con¬
spiracy against Gov. Fclsom
Rep. E C. “Bud” Boswell and
the election commission alter
week’s hearing.
The conspiracy charges were
dropped because they appar-
ently blocked the main purpose
of the suit, to get rid of the
Boswell amendment,
Boswell, himself, no longer a
member of the state legislature,
and Silas E. Gareett, HI, are
attorneys for the defendants,
They argued against the con-
piracy charges.
Only three defendants, the
election commission of Milton
Schnjell, Mrs. D. C. Randall
and E. J. Gonzales, are now
personally involved. The ques-
ticn is whether they are ad¬
ministering an unconstitutional
law or are carrying it out in
unfair method against Ne-
groes.
Other defendants besides
Gov. Folsom and Boswell were
| Dan Thomas, state auditor,
1 and Haygood Patterson, com-
missioner of agriculture.
Case two originated in Birin-
ingham, but was transferred to
Mobile so that the two cases
could be heard together- An
NAACfP attorney, Arthur D.
Shores, brought suit in behalf
;f the Rev. Eugerj: Otis Bax-
er. pastor, Allen Temple AME
church, against the Jefferson
county board of election regis-
trars.

Tip for the Kitchen Brigade
Extra helpers in in the the kitchen
speeding holiday dinner prepara¬
tions sometimes mean a cut Huger
from sharp knives or a slight burn
from a hot stove. The thoughtful
homemaker can prevent minor up
sets from turning into disasters by
making sure nqeessary first aid
equipment Is kept in a handy spot
in the kitchen. A cut finger prompt¬
ly cared for runs little risk of infec¬
tion. Painful burns won't dim fes¬
tive spirits if quickly soothed with
ointment. So be sure your first aid
shelf includes a bottle of antiseptic,
a box of Red Cross sterile cotton
balls and a tube of ointment. For
cuts and abrasions, wash wounded
area thoroughly and swab gener¬
ously with antiseptic that has been
placed on a sterile, absorbent cotton
ball. You’ll find sterile cotton balls
Just the right size for application of
antiseptics. If necessary bandage
the cut. Slight burns rarely need
bandaging but apply ointment Im¬
mediately a^ orditig to directions on
container.

Baked Beans Seasoned with Beer
After the football game, everyone
enjoys gathering around the fireside

hospitality to set up a “help your¬
self” buffet table with plenty of
substantial snacks. Individual pots
of baked beans seasoned with beer
or ale will make a festive choice for
an informal supper menu that will
win cheers from even the most dis¬
consolate losers. Add to each 1-lb.
can of beans, % cup of beer, 2
medium onions and 1 cup canned
tomatoes, and you’ll achieve a zest¬
ful new tang for this traditional
favorite.
Co-star Boston brown bread and
relishes and a bowl of tossed’green
salad with the beans. A tray of
assorted cheese and crackers and a
bowl of grapes and apples for dc ;-
sert add up to a happy ending for a
feast that’s a minimum of trouble
for the hostess who doubles as chief
| cook.

Pumpkin Pie for Modern Puritans
Our Pilgrim forefathers never
thought the Thanksgiving Day
would come when a pumpkin pie
could he prepared and cooked, from
stall to finish, in less than an hour.
But three centuries after the first
Thanksgiving dinner we have a
quick-frozen pumpkin pie mix that
rivals the best field-fresh pumpkin
in Governor Bradford’s colony. It
comes from its quick-frozen carton
all ready to mix, as soon as it
thaws, with egg* and milk. No
sweetening is needed, because
sugar, as well as spice, was added

THERE IS HO TIME
LIKE THE PRESENT
ilV providing adequate life insurance protection for
those dependent upon you “there is no time like the
present.” While you are healthy you can get life in¬
surance with very little trouble.
Some healthy folks, unfortunately, put it off. Then
health fails and life insurance becomes either expen¬
sive or impossible. These people, of course, need life
insurance more than ever. But it is too late.
Does this alarm you? We hope it does. Do some¬
thing about it before your alarm clock goes off again.
