Consider Setting Of
House for Painting

The person who paints a house
paints a part Of the landscape.
There are two questions to answer
before beginning. How Will this
color suit the house itself? And
how will such a colOred house har-
monte with its surroundings?
The owner Of city or suburban
property must consider the appear
ance of the neighboring houses. II
all the houses in the block are
painted white and vines and shrub
berry are used to give them color.
a single dark or bright colored
house would spoil the picture.
Neighboring houses that are "out
Of key with one another as To color
are in constant discord.
The owner of property that Is
more o less off by itself need not
Of course, choose a house color that
will harmonic with his neighbours
house a good distance away. The
problem here is, simply to pick a
color appropriate for the style OF
house and the landscape. A dark
gray paint suitable for a house in
a smoky city. for example. may seem
drab in the fresh colors OF the
country.
White has been the most popu-
lar color for house paint ever since
Colonial times. 1t has been esti-
mated that about seventy out of one
hundred houses in this country are
painted white and ten are white with
a dark trim. The remaining ten
are usually cream, ivory. buff and
tan.
The reasons for the popularity OF
white are many. In winter and in
summer the white house is in keep
ing with the country landscape. The
owner Of a summer home sheltered
by trees may choose white so that
the building can be located easily
BY returning members OF the family
and arriving guests. A white house
in the woods stands out clearly and
can be found readily in the day
time or at night.
If the landscape is extremely
rugged and wild. on the other hand.
the summer camper may want his
house or cottage to merge with its
surroundings. In that ease he will
mix green pigment and lampblack
into his white lead paint, and the
building will be almost as much a
part Of the landscape as the rocks
and trees themselves. The man
who thus subordinates his house
to his surroundings shcw7 the great-
est possible respect for the charac-
ter Of the country.

RELIGION MAY BAR
1881 ARMS FARLEY
Soviet and Turkey Oppose
Adiou"ning for Christmas.
1882 Date Likely.
BY REGINALD WRIGHT KAUFMAN

BY REGINALD WRIGHT KAUFMAN
BY Radio to The Star.
GENEVA, December 27.-The custom
Of observing Christmas holidays promises
to provide a religious factor in the
otherwise political problem Of fixing
date for the projected world dis
armament conference. This problem
must be considered at the next session
Of the Council of the League of Nations,
which will begin on January 8, and al
though the influence of NOSE of its fac
tors will be exerted very largely behind
the scenes, the religious aspect Of the
question probably will be discussed, so
to speak, from the open stage.
1t is generally granted that the gov
eminent intending to be represented at
the conference ought to have at least
nine months for preparation and docu-
mentary study before they meet. Thus,
if the Council decides upon the most
immediate action possible, the date
would fall well toward next November,
as advocated by Germany and the other
states defeated in the World War. In
such event, the conference would
scarcely have begun its labors before
most Of the delegates demanded recess
over Christmas.
Soviet Against Recess.
Against such demand the Soviets, it
Is understood, are already protesting,
their reason being that such recess
would compel their official spokesmen-
representatives of an atheist poWer-to
observe a religious holiday. With this
view, 1t appears, Turkey largely agrees,
being disinclined, as an overwhelming
Mahometan nation. to have its delega-
ton observe, even by a two weeks ad-
tournment, any Christian festival.
Moreover, even q fortnight's rest
might not suffice for all the Christians,
as some, whose state religion is that Of
the orthodox church, adhere to the
Julian calendar, in which Christmas Is
Is days later than in the Gregorian
calendar.
For obvious political reasons, a ma
jority of the Council Of the League Is
said already to be in favor of delay.
The religious and politico-religious ar
guments now being advanced seem
likely to decide the matter.
February Date Seen.
No one in Geneva now expects the
conference to be called earlier than in
February. On the other hand, oficiaIs
OF the League express small doubt of
the Councils setting some definite date.
There Is a group which fears that the
termination on December 81 of the
Franco-Italian naval shipbuilding holi-
day may provide no prospect of an
agreement between Paris and Rome,
that both France and Italy may then
resume their building plans and that
Great Britain may feel impelled by that
situation to invoke the Safeguard"
clause Of the London treaty of last
Spring, thus endangering the Anglo
Japanese American agreement on naval
limitation and virtually administering
a check to the World Disarmament
Conference before. it can begin to
function.
A larger group, however, maintains
that France will be reluctant to start
building and that Italy Is financially
unable to do so.

DANVHLE, Va, December Gloon

that he will begin Monday morning
evicting strikers who have been ordered
by law to yield possession of houses
owned by the Riverside and Dan River
Cotton Mills. 1t was stated the pro-
ceeding viii be delayed If 1t is raining
It is reliably understood that most Of
the II families will move voluntarily,
but that some few are expected to in
sist on being "set out in the street" for
propaganda purposes.
The union has arranged to house the
evlcteeS In houses occupied by strikers,
and by the process Of doubling up there
will be no additional drain on the
financial resources of the union. II the
homes owned by strikers themselves or
in houses rented privately, the Situa-
ton win be met, but If those about TO
be evicted find quarters with other FAM
lilies occupying mill property, the ques-
ton Of further eviction notices viii be
precipitated anew.
Nothing new developed In the strike
situation today, and the Christmas lull
continued.
It is reliably understood that there
will be no demonstrations at the mill
gates Monday when it is reported that
many more workers will enter the mills
for work. Interest today conferred in
the appearance on Tuesday of William
Green, president Of the American
Federation Of Labor, who, union officials
say, will have an announcement Of
tremendous Importance" to make.
It is reliably learned that union
leaders have been engaged in a well
defined campaign in Northern States
among influential customers of the
local mills with a view to presenting
the picture of the strike from the
union standpoint.
The first fatality incident to the tex
tile strike here occurred early today
when Lieut.. Robert r. johnson, Com
pany A, 116th Virginia Infantry, of
Bedford, died at Memorial Hospital
from injuries he sustained on the night
of December % when struck and
crushed by a street car at Scheduled
while on patrol duty with his squad
of soldiers in the strike zone. It was
said death resulted from internal in
juries and toxemia. The remains
were sent to Bedford today for burial.

AWAITS HoovER'S MOVE.
Memorial Association viii Take No
Further Action.

Marion, Ohio, December ~ Cp.-
ANY plans for the dedication of the
Harding Memorial here will await word
from President Hoover, Hoke Donithen,
secretary and executive officer of the
Memorial Association, said today.
Donithen said that the association
will send no further invitation to the
President and that no special meeting
will be held by the organization to dis
cuss the subject.
The President, Donithen said, has al
ready received formal invitations to
dedicate the memorial as well as hav-
ing the matter brought to his atten-
ton by Secretary of the Treasury Mel
lon and other administration repre-
sentativeS.
The memorial association definitely
brought its overtures to a close at its
annual meeting here october when a
motion to suspend all efforts to arrange
for the dedication and await the word
of the President was carried by unan-
imous vote, Donithen said.
Donithen added that the association
has done absolutely nothing in regard to
the dedication since that meeting and
that its decision to leave everything up
to President Hoover remains unchanged.
Donithen said he had received no
official notice of the Presidents de-
cision to dedicate the memorial and
that news reports brought his first in
formation of the developments at Wash,
ington.

fllment OF his expressed wish, COM
plete silence has been maintained up
to now concerning the Illness"
