AIDS FOR SALAD MAKING Salads offer contrast in color,* flavors, and texture and at the same time add zest and eye appe&l to any lunch or dinner. Also, salads can provide a means of serving the family vegetables and fruits in a con venient way. Here are some simple steps to follow in preparing the de lightful salads of your choice. 1. JTeg&re salad greens by washing them gently but thoroughly in cold water to re move all dirt and grit. It may be necessary to separate leaves or stalks in order to clean. Place in a. container covered with a damp cloth or in a plastic bag and chill. 2. Marinate (soak) cooked or raw vegetables and fruits in a tasty dressing for a few hours. This gives zest to a salad. (Vegetables can be added with out marinating them.) 3 Prevent discoloration by sprinkling fresh fruits such as apples, peaches, and bananas with orange, lemon or pineapple juice. 4. Add dressing to the salad at the last minute. 5. Bread cubes, pinientoes, bacon, olives, parsley, or chop ped, are good garnished. On ruit salads use cherries, coco rut, raisins, cheese, marsh meliows, or nuts. Garnishes add color, flavor and nutritive value to any salad.

C. 28301 Phone 483-7004—483-3457 FAPPO Hews The board of directors of the Fayetteville Area Poor Peoples Organization voted, last nig it, to call upon all law enforce ment officers of the Cumber land County area to be wise and take every precautionary mea sure to prevent any type of de struction to the A&H Cleaners t on the Fort Bragg Boulevard. We believe that the time has passed when a black man has to be threatened to be a suc cessful business man in this Free America, where so many of the black inen have given their lives for a piace of Free dom. FAPPO feels at this point that after so many years of de privation of ail the opportuni ties which have been available to all other races we will no longer stand idly bv and ex cept being pushed around. FAP PO also feels that if a black man can’t operate a business in peace in Cumberland Coun ty, that there will be no busi nesses operated by anyone else until, the blood of the last black man with any guts is spilled on the streets of this progressive county, in which we live. It is time that the Afro-Americans realized who is their enemies and where they are. We believe that the A&H Cleaners could operate in Viet Nam and never get a call that it would be blown up, simply because it is under black management. If the law enforcement officers can’t protect one black business out of ten thousand white we don’t need them anyway. Please be wise, the destruction of this business, we are sure, after it has occured, Fayetteville will never be the same. The black community is aware of the fact that every effort has been put forth by certain segments of the white community to stop this business because it is the only black business on the busy bou levard. The Black community is also aware of the feet that there has been plenty of proof of the persons involved in burn ing down this cleaners, the first time and that no arrests have been made. However, the recurrance of the past will let the world know that this is not a one man thing that this is some thing that the entire black com munity is a part of and if the tax paid by the black people can’t be used for the protection of their interest it can be used as it is used in these other troubl ed placed-in America. etball goals have been set up also the gym set and screen for the baseball diamond have been set up. The Developer met with the president of the Youth Board Saturday, June 14, and discussed the future plans for the rest of the playground equipment. A&H Cleaners Ik. Sets Grand Opening for Sat.

The momentous occasion will commence at 2 p.m, and is open to the general public. This event is no ordinary opening for it will, hopefully, culminate more than a year of persona! tnreats, harassments, cross burnings and finally com plete destruction of the clean ing establishment. A&H Cleaners was destroyed by arson in June 1968 shortly after the owners, Marion R. Harris and his wife, had suc cessfully submitted a bid for the primary laundry and clean ing contract at Fort Bragg, the largest military installation in the world. The contract is for a two year period with an option for renewal up to five years and conservative estimates put the gross income (yearly) near a half million dollars, In an effort to rebuild the business so that he could confine the contract agreement, Kar ris tried to secure financial as sistance locally but was unsuc cessful. He approached the Small Business Administration and after months and months of paperwork, the SBA agreed to guarantee a loan of $350,000. Despite the assurance of a government guarantee, Fay etteville financial institutions still denied him assistance.
