Architects Plan
To Show Drawing
OF an Ideal Home
Feature of Exposition Ex-
pected to Prove Pop
uIar With Public.

The special feature exhibit by the
Real Estate Board in the ideal home
exposition to be held next week, ac
cording to Gilbert L. Rodier, architec-
tural director of the exposition, will be
an architectural analysis of an Ideal
home"
This feature will occupy a large space
in the center of the main floor of the
auditorium and will be inclosed by
Belgian woven fencing. The fencing
will serve as a background for the
exhibit and fit in with the exterior
idea of an entrance to an estate.
Throughout the exhibit there will be
displayed in sequence specific archi-
tectural drawings of the different por-
tionS of a home, illustrating each IN
the materials used.
Beginning with the footings and
foundation walls these drawings will de-
pict and analyze in detail the various
sections, floors, walls, angles and roof
ing in a manner to evolve rather
complete picture of an ideal home.
Grouped in front of each illustration
will be typical materials used in the
illustration and these materials have
been assembled as such and not as the
product of a particular manufacturer.
At different stations throughout the
exhibit, skilled foreman mechanics Will
be on duty at all times to discuss with
the visitors the various materials,
analyzing their component parts and
demonstrating how they are actually
applied in construction work. In the
center of this exhibit miniature model
home is displayed with an intensive
landscaping treatment typifying the
ideal manner i'll which the ground
around home should be arranged.
In announcing the opening OF the
ideal home exposition in the Washing
ton Auditorium Monday evening, Alfred
L. Stern, managing director, stated that
the Washington Real Estate Board had
adhered to the policy of patronizing
home industries and agencies In the
planning and construction of the ex-
position. Contracts for the erection OF
booths, decorations, landscaping, as we'll
as all other incidental work in connec-
ton with the exposition is being
handled by local concerns.

the following exhibitors: A. B. G. Oil

With its construction work, decora-
ton and landscaping completed, The
Star model home at 4422 @ street, in
Foxhall Village, is being furnished pre-
paratory to its formal opening for a
month of exhibition, beginning Novenl-
Der 4.
Much of the furniture is already in
the dwelling, and when 1t Is set in place
next week 1t will complete the picture
of this group house example of English
architecture.
Each decorative feature of the house
has been modelled, whenever possible,
in the exact image of an original in
some old English or colonial home.
The mantel, for instance. is similar to
one to be found in an historic castle
near London. 1t is of sandstone, over
laid with hand-carved oak. In the
shape of an arch, the stone itself has
been cut by hand to bear out the re-
semblance The material is Virginia
sandstone, quarried on Aqua Greek,
whence came the vari-colored rock in
many of the stately Colonial homes of
the Old Dominion. The hearth, also
of the same composition, is inches in
thickness.
The woodwork OF the piece is of nat
ural finish, and its graceful lines are
embellished by carvings in harmony
with those on the stone. The posts of
the ballustrade are also cut by hand.
The lights on the first floor are at
tached to the walls by ornamental
bronze sconceS, and are shielded by
severely simple French shades. The
lighting fixtures on the second floor are
of the three-pronged, center, early
Colonial type.
In the bright, airy studio on the
third floor an unusual idea is intro

SAY They ARE NOT
ABLE TO COMPETE
With SWEAT SHOP
Right Wing Responsible
for Present Condition

Four large union cloak manufae-
turers have just closed their plants,
it became known yesterday. They
are the firms of L. B. Vogel, Louis
Lustig, Gotthelf and Ravetz; Kraus
and Mondscheiner.
This fact, it is pointed out, is an
other vivid example of the complete
chaos existing in the cloak industry,
despite the boasts of ''The Daily For
ward" which declares that the right
wing Cloakmakers' Union has sue
ceeded in organizing the trade by
means of President Sigman's fraudu-
lent organization drives.
Open Shop Conditions.
In closing their factories the four
employers declared that they cannot
compete with the open shop condi-
lions now existing in the trade since
the decentralization of union control
set in.
Samuel Klein, president of the In
dustrial Council, an employers or
ganization, said in statement yes
terday, that there will be many more
firms who will be compelled to close
their factories because of the neces-
sity to compete with sweat-shop con-
ditions. Klein was one of the CO.
partners of the right wing Sigman
forces, when they began their attack
on. the left wing leadership of the
Joint Board, which finally resulted in
the SCATTERING of that once powerful
organization.
