Citizens Ac! to Assist I
SO Southeast Families
Soon to Be Evicted
A committee from the South
east Citizens’ Association wUi
meet with a group from the Wash
ington Housing Association on
Monday to discuss means of as
sisting 50 families soon to be
evicted from their homes to and
near the 1000 block bl Thirteenth
street SJE.
The families live in half a hun
dred flats to row houses, situated
mostly in the 1000 block of Thir
teenth street SJE. The homes are
being sold to colored purchasers
by the Colonial Investment Co.,
acting as agents for Nathan

James B. Evans.
The real estate men obtained
the homes in a trade last Decem
ber with the Washington Sanitary
Housing Co., which was organized
to provide low-cost housing for
tenants in low-income groups.
Offer Newer Rentals.
An official of the company said
the Thirteenth street, tenants
were offered an opportunity to
rent newer apartments acquired
under the trade, but most of them
declined to move into the South
west from the Southeast.
In November, 1950, Mr. Levin,
Mr. Tauber and Mr. Evans ac
quired some 850 low-rent housing
units from the former Washington
Sanitary Improvement Co. for $3
million.
Some of the directors erf the
improvement company formed the
Washington Housing Co. to carry
on the work- of the original organ
ization.
Two-thirds of Houses Sold.
A spokesman for the Colonial
Investment Co. said a spot check
of tenants was made to see if they
wished to purchase the flats they
were renting. In the absence of
offers from tenants, it was said,
about two-thirds of the ‘homes
have been sold to Individuals
planning to occupy them.
A few of the old tenants have
moved out, and new owners are
awaiting, the expiration of noti
fication nave been extended in
some cases, it was said.
The Urban Development Com
mittee of the Housing Association
will meet with the citizens’ group
at 10 am. Monday in headquar

GOOD THINGS COME EASY THE CALIFORNIA WAY
The California Wav? Ia food as in entertaining,
that means doing things the casual, no-fuss way—
yet always with a touch of glamour. For instance
when guests drop in, don’t knock yourself out
fixing Fussy things. Instead, just set out a tray of
assorted crackers and wedges of cheese ... then,
for that hospitable touch, pour glasses of mellow
California Sherry wine. It’s as nice a way to say
welcome as it is easy! P.S. To be prepared, better
add "Sherry wine” to tomorrow’s shopping list

Sherry, like the other fine unw of California, costs
only a few cents a glass to serve. Enjoy Sheny with
appetizers, Burgundy and Sauterne with dinner.
Serve Port with dessert... and when guests drop in,
afternoon or evening. Get acquainted with utese
and the other fine California wines. Remember,
too, when dining out, the world-famous wines
of California are featured by leading restaurants
and hotels everywhere. Wine Advisory Board,

International Bank Begins
Oil Talks With Mossadegh
•y th« Associated Press
TEHERAN, Iran, Feb. 13.—An
International Bank mission be
gan on-the-spot negotiations at
the bedside of Premier Mohammed
Mossadegh yesterday in an effort
to get the 1.5-billion dollar Iranian
oil industry going again.
The five-man mission, headed
by the bank's vice president. Rob
ert L. Gamer, has a new twist to
this old problem—a plan for the
bank to manage Iran’s national
ized oil industry temporarily until
Iran and Britain settle their long
standing dispute.
There are some indications Mr.
Mossadegh may now be more will
ing-to talk business. With the oil
industry’s exports cut off, external
revenues no longer are cooping in
and the government is fast run
ning out of money.
TABRIZ, Iran, Feb. 13 (JP).—
Russias ‘‘house of culture” here
is still wide open, despite Iranian
government orders closing all for
eign cultural organizations in the
provinces. The United States and
Britain complied with the orders
last week and closed their small
cultural and information centers
here and elsewhere in the prov
inces.

Alabama Girl Falls for Yankee
It wos love at first sight when Miss Guinevere Smythethwaite
of Birmingham, Alabama, met our Yankee Pot Roast. Thumbing
her nose at trodition. Miss S. cleaned her plate with aplomb,
aided by a knife and fork, solved her conscience by ordering
spiced shrimp appetizer from Biloxi, buttered broccoli from Ten
nessee. Topped it off with peach cobbler from Macon, Georgia,
and coffee from South America. And all for $1.70. Whether
you're from Birmingham, Alpbama, or Uncusville, Connecticut,
