Average Family Water Use Doubled Did you know that the average family uses 44,000 gallons of hot water each year? In a decade the hot water re quirements of the average U. S. family have almost doubled. Back c in 1950, according to the Gas Ap pliance Manufacturers Assn., a family of four needed 75 gallons daily; now the figure is 120. The reason? Living habits have changed. Homes are larger. There are more baths. Dishwashing and laundering have become mechaniz ed. Wash and wear and other man-made fibers have changed laundering routines. When you take a shower or give the kids a bath, the chances are that each of you will use 10 to 15 gallons in each cycle. A modern automatic dishwasher gulps 10 gal clothes washer takes another 25 to 30 gallons for each load. CARPETS CARPET HOUSE Good Used Rugs & Linoleum NEW CARPETS New and Used Linoleum 1516 E.

So far Doyle Carr seems to have the inside track. BIG FISH Rev. M. Harrison, pastor of Lucy Phillip’s Methodist Church caught quite a fish on his vacation while in California. However when it dawned on him to call the news paper it seems that friends and relatives cut down the size of the fish. NAACP Firmly Against Benicia Arsenal Badges Designating "Race" San Francisco, California—Tarea Hall Pittman, Acting Regional Sec retary reported today that NAACP leadership have received com plaints from workers at Benicia Arsenal in connection with new security badges which carry the designation of “race.” The infor mation obtained brought out the fact that these new badges were issued pursuant to technical in structions 1300-6-60 dated June 6, 1960. It was also learned that approximately 4,000 of the new badges were purchased in March, 1961 and were received at Benicia Arsenal in May, 1961. The first of the new badges were issued on July 14, 1961. Negro workers protested the fact that behind the designation of the item of “race” was the word Negro, N, Filipino, P, Caucasian or white. Officers at Benicia Ar senal made it clear that they were simply carrying out instructions and had no authority to do other wise until ordered to do so by the Department of Army in Washing ton, D. C. Mrs. Pittman said, “the protest of defense workers at Benicia Arsenal against the use of race on their identification badges is com pletely understandable in light of the Negro’s insistence that he be treated as an American and not set apart by racial designation. It is hard to understand how such an order could be issued by the Army and harder still to comprehend why it is being carried out at this date. The West Coast Region of fice today filed a complaint with the Secretary of Army and inform ed Clarence Mitchell, the Direct or of the NAACP Washington Bureau of the action taken. All workers at Benicia Arsenal will be supported in their right to pro tect this indignity.” ' ' ' f —' ' UFo3tli<r ag I j 5 *, " |Ei '% BABY SHOWER—A baby shower was given for Mrs. Juanita Campbell at the home of Mrs. Carol Hurd.
