THE CARROLLTON CHRONICLE
CARROLLTON, TEXAS, FRIDAY, AUGUST 29, 1952
LOCAL BUYERS
ATTEND DALLAS
FASHION MARKET
Mrs. O. F. Godfrey and Mrs. Iris
Van Cleve, local merchants, were
among the 5,000 buyers who at-
tended the American Fashion As-
sociation Midwinter and Holiday
Market in Dallas, Aug. 17-22.
The American Fashion Associa-
tion, comprised of 500 manufac-
turers' representatives, displayed
over 1,100 lines of women’s and
children’s apparel at the Adolphus,
Baker and Bluebonnet hotels.
Highlight of market week was
the breakfast-clinic style show en-
titled "Christmas Fun for Every-
one,” held on Aug. 19 and 20 In
the Grand Ballroom of the Adol-
phus Hotel. Seven holiday themes
were staged, each illustrated by
costumes from the midwinter lines,
together with suggestions for pro-
motion, advertising and window
display. A children’s choir pre-
sented a background of Christmas
music.
The style show was presented
with Mrs. Evelyn Lambert’s com-
mentation.
The next market week will be
held In Dallas Oct. .26-31 and will
feature Resort and Advance Spring
Fashions.
GOV. DAN THORNTON
SAYS IKE WILL FIGHT
FOR STATE TIDELANDS
FORT WORTH, Texas —Texas-
born Dwight D. Eisenhower, “a
fighter all his life,” will fight, as
President of the United States, to
restore to Texas her precious tide-
lands. He will also fight unceas-
ingly and with all his heart to
stamp out Socialism and Commu-
nism In this country.
This was the message that
Texas-born Gov. Dan Thornton of
Colorado, brought to the Lone
Star State last week when official-
ly opened the State Eisenhower
Headquarters atop the Contineti-
tal Life Building In Fort Worth.
Speaking to a large and enthu-
siastic crowd of "Ike” supporters
in Will Rogers Auditorium, the tall
and rangy governor, son of a
West Texas sharecropper, charged
Adlai Stevenson, the Democratic
nominee, of being the personal
candidate of President Harry Tru-
man. He said that there can be no
hope for a change in Washington
when only the faces of the nomi-
nees are changed, but the power-
ful Administration forces remain
in control of the Federal Govern-
ment.
“The Democrats have nothing
to fear but fur,” Thornton de-
clared. “And I mean mink. Now is
our opportunity to throw the ras-
cals out who would destroy Amer-
ica. We need a more decent type
of man in the White House than
we have now.”
Thornton characterized the
campaign as: “not a struggle be-
tween two political parties, but a
struggle between two philosophies.
One believes in freedom of the in-
dividual and the other that the
State is all-powerful.”
Appearing with Thornton on
the program were Jack Porter,
Houston, G.O.P. National Commit-
teeman from Texas, and Ben
Guill, Porter’s appointee as cam-
paign manager for Eisenhower In
Texas.
Using recommendations based
on soil tests enabled Ed Detrixhe,
Hemphill County wheat farmer, to
bet back $8 for every $1 spent for
fertilizer on his wheat crop.
FIRE PREVENTION
WEEK TO BE
OBSERVED OCT. 5-11
With fire loss in life and prop-
erty, when measured in dollars, at
an all-time high, an aroused na-
tion this month began to organize
intensive safety campaigns to be
carried out in 10,000 communities
during Fire Prevention Week,
October 5-11.
Spearheading the movement are
municipal officials, fire depart-
ments, civic and educational
groups, schools, churches, the fire
protection and public service or-
ganizations of the insurance In-
dustry, and various other volun-
tary agencies. All participate, In
general, through local fire safety
committees, which assume the re-
sponsibility of the week-long
campaign without duplication or
overlapping of individual or group
effort.
The activities of these fire saf-
ety committees are numerous.
Here are a few examples:
1— Fire departments in many
communities conduct home and
building inspections that result in
correction of fire hazards.
2— Schools, through their ad-
ministration and faculty, encour-
age safety education.
3— Civic and other groups di-
rect public attention to the need
for greater fire safety.
Once a Fire Prevention Week
campaign has been successfully
carried out, the community’s long
range program is usually set in
motion with the following results:
1— Better building construction,
operation and protection.
2— Better fire safety laws and
law enforcement.
3— Better fire prevention educa-
tion.
4— Better fire fighting services.
5— Better research, especially in
the means and methods of pro-
tecting lives.
The National Board of Fire Un-
derwriters, long a leader in Fire
Prevention Week activities, al-
ready has distributed as its share
in the coming campaign millions
of fire safety posters, leaflets, edu-
cational booklets, inspection
blanks and stickers.
