and weather. True, the roof of your
house must give protection against the
elements. 1t must last. But, as one
of the most prominent architectural
features of your home, the roof should
also add much to its beauty.

On the roof especially color plays an
important part. Most often the largest
unbroken expanse of house, the root
frequently sets its whole color key

with roof of fresh blue green tones,
while one In which soft browns and

American Cities Need
Color, Expert Thinks

A freer use of color in modern build
ings is advocated by the chairman Of

ton. He hopes to see American cities
take on color to such an extent that 1t
Will make life more interesting and
more cheerful. He suggests that the
shade used In building should suit
the needs and general atmosphere Of
its locality, mentioning green as
soothing antidote for the high tension
of the Wall street neighborhood. Con-
vcrsely, Suburban regions of peace
and quiet might run to gay reds, yell
low and orange to counterfeit q too
constant calm. Broadway and the the
atrical district call for rose color, or
perhaps primrose. The vicinity of the
Iombs suggests purple for the proper
motif. Tropical cities have long used
brilliant pinks and blues in their make
up. Even southern California boasts
OF brightly colored buildings which
would seem startling If set down in
the gray and tan and buff of Northern
and Eastern cities. Anglo Saxons are
shy of color, and if American men are
anything like as self conscious about
color In buildings as they are in

Inter-p1anetary communication il
not beyond the range Of possibility.
Despite the fact that this fantastic
objective Of science SO far Is con-
fined to speculation, DR.. Alfred NJ.
Goldsmith, chief broadcast engineer
Of the Radio Corporation Of America,
today gave it sufficient credence
when he outlined the first message
he would send to Mars!
Once the apparatus was set UP
either a huge bank of searchlights
for a light message or a beam trans
mitter of thousands OF kilowatts
power for a radio signal-the ptoce.
dure would be this:
First would be transmitted d be.
quence of telegraphic dots-then. a
space-followed py another sequence
Of dots to attract attention. The sig.
nails sent from the terrestrial station
should be such that it received on
another planet the idea OF regular
control would be conveyed.
TO Wait for Signals Answer
This should be carried on for 4
long time, ever waiting with receiv-
ing apparatus for the answering
signal" Goldsmith said.
My first message would be based
on the assumption that geometrical
truths are universal and known to
any one intelligent enough to get
light or radio message. The right
angle triangle is the most simple
of the geometrical truths.
Therefore. I would seek to indi-
cate the right angle triangle in my
message possibly by three dots, a
space, four dots, space, five dots
then nine, Is and rs dots, followed
by two sequences Of rs dots each, in.
dicating Is as the sum Of and Is.
Seen As Worth the Cost
IF anything similar came back
to my ear-phones, or il anything
at all came back. the fact that life
exists on the planet, that those
beings had communication equip.

ment and intelligence would Be
established.
That would be worth the COST
Goldsmith insists that II there
are beings on other planets intelli.
gent enough to receive signals they
are conversant with geometricaI
laws and that symbolic forms Of
communication could be established.
He Is convinced that IL intelligent

sage would indicate the right angle

Three possibilities for transmit.
ting signals to Venus or Mars were
given. The first was In the trans.
mission of light waves of .OO0O0oS

radio waves IL meters or shorter,
Waves between these lengths would
penetrate the Kennedy -Heaviside

earth forms q reflector Tor waves

A third possibility lies In the use
