PRES. COOLIDGE
FAVORS BOARD
TO HELP FARMERS

Washington, Dec. 26.-(AP)-The
administration farm relief program
will be broadened to provide for
some machinery for handling surplus
crops.
Just what form this new aid will
take has not been determined, but
both President Coolidge and Secre-
tary Jardine have reached the con-
clusion that surplus crops present
one of dominating proglems of agri-
culture and that some government
step must be taken to afford relief.
Tremendous pressure has been
brought to bear recently on the adj
ministration by the congressional
farm bloc and western agriculture
leaders to create federal agriculture
commission with powers to direct the
disposition or surplus farm crops in
a way which would enable the pro-
ducers to at least get the cost of pro-
duction.
Heretofore the White House has
been silent on the subject, but today.

Can pictures be successfully used
with wallpaper? One OF the chief
reasons why some people refrain
from using wallpaper in their liv-
ing rooms is because they feel that
they cannot combine with it some
of the charming color pictures that
they possess. This idea is untrue.
In many cases the difficulty has
been that they have not used the
right pictures or have failed to Sc
lect the kind of wallpaper that
would harmonic with them in feel
ing. (,
Leading decorators who are Civ
ing extensive thought to the pro-
duction of harmony of color and
design in the home strongly rec
ommend the use OF figured walls in
stead of the cold, neutral effect of
the plain drab surfaces which have
held sway Tor some years past.
Many living room papers arc
made with large, spreading designs
carrying soft but definite colors that
add warmth and interest to the
walls. A picture that will add to,
rather than detract from this paper
is one that accents these same COL
