ATLANTIC STILL
 THREATENS SHIPS
Thrilling ReScues Reported--
 Steamer Rynburn Missing

New York, Feb. 2 H) ---~Held at bay by human ingenuity and in yentivcness which have resulted in thrilling rescues the past week, the stormy Atlantic is still threat ening disaster to many vessels far at sea.
 While naval men are anXiously following the fate of half dozen smaller ships caught in one of the worst storms the Atlantic has known in years, the toll of known dead stood at 27 with 63 mon snatchcd from imminent death Three vessels are known to have foundercd.
 27 Men Saved
 Today the Hamburg American liner Westphalia was stcaming to- ward New York with 97 men aboard from the Dutch freighter Alkaid. She bears the latest add- ton 10 the heroic story of rescues made last week by the United States liner President Roosevelt and the North German Lloya liner Bremen.
 Another rescue has been added in the saving of five men from tho schooner Simmons by the Pure Oil company tanker W, H. Mills off the Florida coast.
 Story of Rescue
 Last night Captain Graalfs of the Westphalia amplitied his earlier re port Of the rescue of the crew of the Alkaid. Receiving urgent S o s. calls early on January 31, he sent his ship full speed to the Alkaio following his course by means of a radio bearing finder.
 Within ten hours the Westphalia sighted the Alkaid, washed by heavy waves with her fore and aft rails. deck houses and matches car rird away. Her boats also were smashed.
 Tho heavy seas made impossible launching Of q life boat from the Westphalia until S:So yesterday morning when the entire crew oi v was saved. The Alkaid was sci on fire as a menace to navigation
 None of the Alkaid's crew waS hurt, though Captain Gralfs re, ported all exhausted. Captain Ross of the stricken ship wa, nearly drowned when he fell be tween the life boat and the ship He was quickly hauled in.
 Other Vessels in Danger

S725,OOO PROGRAM
 FOR NEW SCHOOLS
Board Of Finance to Give Plans
 Consideration Later

A building program calling for the construction within the next year of three schools in the northern, north eastern, and southern sections at a total expense of s725,000 was sub mitted to the board of finance and taxation last night. After some dis cusson the school board was re. quested to go ahead and make plans for the program, and to submit 1t to the board at a later date.
 Chairman P. r. King of the school board said that q school will be constructed on Shuttle Meadow .avenue to take the place of the pres- ent Monroe school. He said the new school will be an accommoda- ,tion that would take care of tho schools enrolment for the next four years. The present plans are being made to take care of future needs he said, adding that he does not favor any plans that would take care of only the present.
 Mir. King said the board has made plans to relieve the junior high school situation by making the Nathan Hale school a junior high school and building another school building on the premises which would house a shop for the boys, additional rooms and other accom- modation necessary to junior high school plant.
 He said he did not think the plan the best of those that were under consideration, but it was the only one that would fit the situation. II

 City Virtual Fortress
 The city was a virtual fortress to. day and particularly in the vicinil, of the court house, where the r, stricted area has been set off. A soil. line Of troops armed with pistol only, was formed around the coHr house taking in several squares.
 Whippet tanks were stationed al strategic points and backed up by machine guns. The machine guns were for tho most part mounted in the cents of blocks having clean sweep of the street,
 Outposts were stationed at every road leading to the city long before the cavalcade escorting the Negro had drawn near the city and no vehicles or pedestrians were permit ted to enter, virtually shutting off all in bound traffic,
 Observation Tower Used
 In the tower Of the court house an observation post was established and lookouts stationed at other ad- vantageous points to keep a watch on the surrounding portions Of the city.
 The court house where the Negro was taken remained brilliantly light ed throughout the night and arms and ammunition stored there made 1t a virtual arsenal.
 Persons passing through the re- stricted area were halted and search ed for weapons before being per mitted to pass through the cordon of soldiers.
 When the Cavalcade from Frank fort escorting the !'egro drew into the city shortly before o'clock few people saw it.
 The little tank drawn by two trucks clattered through the desert- ed streets and to the court house, where the Negro was taken out.

They stated that the cattle wcru purchased on Saturday morning. A man by the name of Francis from Plainville, from whom Dunn pur- chased the cattle, testified that the law allows cattle 10 remain 3G hours without food.
 Another Dunn witness by thu name of Johnson, an employe ot the stock yards. said that he saw the cattle fed on Saturday and Sunday afternoon,
 Attorney Gaffney then produced 2 copy of the city ordinance dated November IS, 1922, which in part stated that for each head Of stock lodged at the slaughter house, 75 cents must be paid by the owner for each 12 hours the stock r.- mains there.

Give Careful Thought
to Woodwork Finish

In any decorative scheme, don't for
get to consider the color of the wood
work. When the wood used for win
dow or door trim is oak, cypress, ma
pie or birch or any wood with a
beautiful grain, waterproof varnish
will give luster and bring out the
grain. Woods vary in shade from
light to dark brown or red. The color
scheme of the room should be kept in
similar tones or warm colors. Con-
trasting colors can then be used in
some of the furnishings to give the
room animation.
Light woodwork Is very fashionable.
And there are excellent varnish stains
and enamels on the market that will
give just the shade or tint in the wood
work that the color scheme of the
room demands. Varnish stains color
the wood and let the grain show
through. Enamels give solid coat Of
color that Is rich and satiny In its
texture. The range of colors Is wide
and manufacturers give explicit direc-
tons for securing any tint or shade
desired. OF course, the most satisfac
tory finishes are absolutely waterproof
and can be washed without injury to
gloss or color.

Short Waves Solution

Short waves are the solution Of the

not affect reception on the lower wave

in the present band, and it is unques-
tionably true that clearer reception or
the lower wave-lengths is possible

The present over-crowded broadcast
ing wave band is due to the fact that
there are only SO available wave chan
nels between 30 and $40 meters, and
it can be readily seen that an enor-
nous expansion can be made when it
is realized that between 10 and 100
meters there are some 2,99S wave
lengths that can be used, spacing. as
has been the practice, 10 kilocycles
apart. This means that very large
increase can be made in broadcasting
stations and that each station may
have an individual wave-length

Realizing the tremendous impor-
lance of this new low-wave transmits

gineer of the United States signal

will make it possible to receive low

Also that there is an overhead car
rier track for transporting the feed
and ensilage from the feed room that
connects the silo with the barn. This
carrier also makes the removal of lit

The silo is ten feet in diameter and
Is constructed of hollow clay tile, es-
pecially designed for silo walls. The
tile is hollow, which makes wall

What You May Want to
Know About Building

The prepared plastic compounds for
interior finish on walls and ceilings,
are recommended when prepared by
competent manufacturers. These pos
sess certain advantages principally iii
respect to texture and color. The eff
fects obtained from the use of these
materials are subject to considerations
Of good taste. Where fine effect is
obtained, it is not fad.
An unlimited reproduction of stock
design would naturally cheaper the de-
sign, no matter how fine the stock de-
sign might be. On the other hand, a
fine design may be repeated extensive
ly without essential cheapening. Vari-
ations In color tend to overcome SINH
larity. No doubt the greatest individu-
ality is possible only with plans espe-
cially prepared for the building of a
single house. To the small home build
err with limited funds the availability
of good stock plans under the control
of architects Is of advantage.
The minimum height of ceilings is
usually determined by building ordi-
nances. Economy has some effect.
Rooms with lowered ceilings cost less
to heat, all other things being equal.
Where there are no considerations to
be met excepting those of finest de-
sign, the height of ceiling is proper
toned to the room and the character
of it's use, the style of its architecture.
In small houses ceiling heights for the
first story of s feet 6 inches and for
the second story of feet, do very well.
