Both parents are well remembered by the Johnson C. Smith University Community. New York City (API) - when the 12,000 super market operators and others in the industry gathered in Dallas at the Super Market Institute's annual convention. Kraft - Foods and SMI cooperated to present a special seminar for food editors. The Amalgamat ed group of Black newspapers was represented and this issue of "Ethel's Cookery" is to give you an overview of the confer ence. Among the topics discussed were issues and trends affect ing super market operators, commodity outlook, the uni versal product code and shrinkage and the cost of food. Trends in new foods New products on the market save time, energy and help the diet-conscious, krqcery pjo, duct protiWfrefla^·in -mine* those of us "on the go" - single dwellers, special needs in diets. Commodity outlook Ϊ Food availability for ba '■ lance of the year looks good, ζ prices indicate some increas ■: es, but most will be stable. Beef prices may rise, but the '·} rise will be moderate; pork j shold have an increase. Broil er production should continue 'i at record levels at lower J prices. The enormous rise in ί cost of coffee is due to the freeze in Brazil, the flood in -j Columbia,-war in Angola and the earthquake in Guatemala all of which contributed to an 11 percent decline in coffee production. Shrink and the cost of food One of the hidden operating costs is that of "shrink", which includes food theft, from customers through shop lifting, relocating items, care less handling by employees, food spoilage and other inven tory loss factors. It was esti mated that if shrink were eliminated, store profits would double and the savings could be passed on to us, the consumers. The Automated Check Out System The universal product code - designed for automated check out at the register, is still not 1 ; \tldaha imeftect. and may not yet. CoifsLrrfrtr studies showed some resis tance to the pricing system and indicated that the home maker wants to retain indivi dual item pricing. Conference conclusions In our opinion, the confer ence design showed a concern for consumer needs and de sires as well as giving insight to the concerns of the industry people, and in spite of high operating costs, super market operators indicated they are attempting to keep overall costs down, although profits will be at a minimum. S ■ Authority, Not Money Causes VuarTels A frequent theme of family fights is who spends what and how. Money is not the basic issue, marriage counsellors contend -- it's simply a cover up for vital struggles over power and authority. In a July Reader's Digest article condensed from Mon day, writer Caroline Donnelly tells how these fiscal fracases can be avoided I'-nderstand injithe underlying forces is a st;-?k. "Family members who have money tend to try to use it as a means of manipulating those who do not," she writes. This may express itself in arguments between parent and child or husband and wife as a question of who's in charge-the authoritarian pa rent or the teenager striving • for independence? The bread winner or the homemaker? If family relationships-are sound and caring, money-mo tivated clashes can be resolv ed, despite their complex emo tional origins. For openers, counsellors advise better plan ning, so everyone knows how much is coming in and who will be paying how much out. Budgets help; so do compro mises. , There are other methods counsellors have found suc cessful in helping families discuss finances without com ing apart at the seams. Infor mal family meetings (include the children) on spending practices and procedures are useful - when everyone shares in the decision-making, it's hard to blame one another. If you can't handle a fact-to face -meeting, therapists ad vise writing it down. One way to get concensus on spending priorities is to have the family - or husband and wife -- make lists in descending order to importance and then to coin pare them "Being happy is a virtue too." ...u.ouu; uu 1» uiq-inc. V-Iinn, Tom Strickland Wants People Involved In N. C. Government By Sidney Moore Jr. . Post Staff Writer Guldsboro native Tom Strickland, a Democratic Par ty candidate for Governor, wants to get the people of North Carolina involved in government Senator Strickland was elec ted to his present office in 1971. He also served in the State House of Representa tives from 1968 to 1972. As a legislator, the candi date worked to get the Presi dential Primary law passed in this state. This law. said Strickland, helped establish Jimmy Carter as a serious contender Strickland said he supported the law 'because 1 think people ought to be in volved in the government." Strickland said the "most pressing problem" now facing the State is its overcrowded prison system He said state leaders made a mistake when they decided to centralize the prison sys tem He said some of the buildings not now being used could house the more than 2.000 prisoners that overcrowd the central system in Raleigh De-centralization would also create more possible work opportunities for prisoners Strickland said rehabilitation is improbable for most prison ers unless they learn to work ana acquire marketable skills. A de-centralized system would also enable prison ad ministrators to re-classify pri soners. said Strickland He thinks hardened criminals should be separated from youthful offenders The Senator wants to lower the age of responsibility from 16 to 14. Then he would create a new division of prisons. Juvenile offenders under 14 would be handled much as tneyarenow ïoutniui oiiend ers age 14-17 would be respon sible for their crimes. But, their records would be cleared if they met certain yet to be specified requirements. Strickland believes youthful offenders should have a se cond chance. Ht^said separat ing these offenders from juve - niles and hardened criminals would make the likelihood of rehabilitation more probable The candidate said that Dast experiences as a lawyer and public servant have made him aware of the problems with the criminal justice system. He cites a 1971 effort to get belter training for law en forcement officers This effort was made. Strickland said, because a study showed the officers would benefit from the training Strickland has also advocat ed speedier trials and (non uniform sentencing He said if judges will not do anything about encouraging these need ed reforms, the legislature and the Governor should "We've really got to im prove this system.'' said Strickland Other issues the candidate sees as important include jobs, industrial development, more equitable laws to control issuing unemplovment com pensation checks, a better auditing system to control weltare funds and the stream lining of government agencies for efficiency Strickland said his record in public service to his state is his strongest campaign asset He said his reason tor run ning for Governor is make possible for himself a contin uation of the desire to serve I feel like I do have some knowledge to bring to the job Strickland said "The W ai tin £ Years" Over F or Black W riters CHAPEL HILL--"Rightly or wrongly Ihe generation of Ne gro writers to which 1 belong considered itself marooned for a number of years "Whether we were right or not we felt like a voice crying in the wilderness." said Dr. Blyden Jackson, professor of English at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Jackson, who is in his 60s, said until the 1960s the majori ty of what Negro scholars wrote reached a very limited audience. Only one or two, managed to catch the ear of the world around them, he recalled. Jackson's views are expres sed in "The Waiting Years", his new book recently publish ed by Louisiana State Univer sity Press The book is a selection of essays written by Jackson during the last 3D years and provides what he calls a sort of panorama of the sentiments of a group of writ ers who like himself felt they weren't getting through The introductory essay in eludes Jackson's personal re flections upon his generation of Negro writers. "These men and women because of their race and because of the limited number of whole books devoted to critical examination and in terpretation of Negro litera ture were neglected," Jackson said "Remember, we were living in a segregated world and writing about material that we felt was not reaching an exten sive audience We also (ell there was a tendency to ignore us when opinions on North American literature were cir culated " But it was more than just a question of race Jackson be lieves He said Negro writing, like all American writing for a time, had difficulty in gaining acceptance among scholars as literature A prelude added to other essays in "The Waiting Years" retrieves the time at which each essay was w ritten Jackson deals with black writ ings such as the ghetto novel, the Harlem Renaissance and the Negro's image ol himself His other essays focus on individual writers like poet Countee Cullen. novelist Κι chard Wright and novleist poet Langston Hugos · The Wailing Years is de signed for use in courses in Negro literature as well as (or courses in American Iitera ture. Jackson said lie also hopes it «ill be read b> those «ho are not academics at all "We have a nation whose level of literacy is fairly high and I 'd like to think the public themselves will be interested in reading it Jackson, who is also associ ate dean of the I NX'-C'II Cirad uate School, came here in 15«>y following a seven sear post as dean of the graduate school ol Southern I'niversity in Louisi ana.
